    Tina and Eric were amongst the last to arrive. Tina was very upset that Eric had delayed her so much more than anticipated. They’d argued in the car but both put on a good front as they entered the gallery hand in hand. Eric was a handsome man. He was clean shaven, had blond hair darker than Tina’s styled fashionably and piercing blue eyes. They made a striking pair walking around the main gallery reception hall where the cocktail party was already in full swing. Tina looked around for Valerie and spotted her engaged in conversation with Bette and three other people whom she didn’t know. She figured they were patrons of the arts and she didn’t want to interrupt. She looked around for other familiar faces and found Peggy Peabody looking back at her. She was standing with Max and Tom. Tina led Eric in their direction.

    “Good evening everyone.”

    “Tina it’s so good to see you. You look absolutely beautiful dear.” Peggy kissed Tina on both cheeks then turned to Eric.

    “You must be Eric. I’m Peggy Peabody.”

    “Yes. Eric Peters. Mrs. Peabody it’s a pleasure to meet you.”

    “Likewise but please call me Peggy.”

    “OK Peggy.”

    “Eric this is Max Sweeney and his partner Tom Mater. Max is overseeing the merger.”

    The three men make their introductions. Max is familiar with Eric’s history as one of the attorneys for Shaolin studios even though they’d never met. While they chatted Peggy took the opportunity to speak to Tina. “We missed you at the private gathering Tina.” Peggy’s tone made Tina a bit uncomfortable as if she was being reprimanded by a parent. ”Valerie and Bette were hoping that you two would make it on time.”

    “Yes, I’m sorry we’re late. I did see them when we walked in but they were talking to some people and I didn’t want to interrupt.”

    “I’m sure they wouldn’t mind Tina, as I said they were anxious for you to get here but it looks like Bette and Valerie are already making their way over to us.”

    Bette and Valerie excused themselves as soon as they eyed Tina and walked over to where the group was standing.

    “Hey Tina you made it. Hi Eric.”

    “Hi Val.” Eric greets Valerie with a friendly hug.

    1. I am sure you left out a couple of pages. ;-) Excellent chapter. I wonder if Tina will be upset that Bette didn’t tell her about her adoption plans? Eric seems awfully bossy especially if Tina and he have an “open” relationship. Tina seems kind of mousy/timid when it comes to Eric. Just my observation. Looking forward to more. Thanks for writing frequently and longer chapters as well.

      • azmama thank you for continuing to read and commenting on this story. Your observation about Tina and Eric’s “open” relationship is very astute. More will be revealed about Eric’s behavior in a future chapter.

    2. Good chapter I’m glad everyone but Tina heard the happy news. I on the other hand think Tina shouldn’t be upset as she chose to wait for Eric and one thing led to another on that issue. If Bette does tell Tina than she has to be supportive as the next 3 months bette’s mind will be on this baby. The feeling I’m getting this baby is coming early am I wrong? Francesca wasn’t feeling too great after the show? so am I reading into it too much?

      • Dee22 we’ll soon see Tina’s reaction when she finally hears the news. No worries about Francesca. She will take the baby to full term. Thanks for reading and commenting.

    3. Tina doesn’t seem too interested in Eric from a relationship standpoint as it looks more like an arrangement than anything else but she lets him kind of dictate things to much for them not being serious..And since she missed Bette’s announcement about the baby I hope she is supportive in Bettes decision when she does find out

      • Pie_Fair like azmama you too have hit the nail on the head regarding Tina and Eric’s relationship. More will be revealed about their intimacy. Stay tuned for Tina’s reaction to the news when she finally hears it. Thanks for reading and commenting.

    4. Bette pity not to have the opportunity to talk about Tina
      adoption, however, I know she will give support to Bette.
      This story is excellent.
      Great chapter.
