Love Revisited – Coming Home Part 49
“Yes. There’s been no motion for sequestration. We’ve gone over your testimony already but, if you can, come in about half an hour earlier and we’ll go over a few things. You’ll be fine. Okay? I’ll see you tomorrow then?”
“Yes, we’ll both be here.”
“It will all be over soon, Bette. Hang in there. Remember, please do not talk to anyone other than me. Not the media, not the defense counsel, NO ONE but me. I wouldn’t be surprised if you receive phone calls. Just tell your assistant to tell them you’re under instructions not to speak to anyone.”
“Oh, James, won’t let anyone get to me. Thanks,
Bette left the courtroom and the building and headed back to the CAC. ‘Soon’ can’t come fast enough,

Kelly Barrett cancelled her last two classes. She was headed home to finish packing. Her flight was at 4 this afternoon. Never in a million years did she think she’d be on a plane to
Funny thing is, if she hadn’t had the TV on that day, she wouldn’t have seen the report. Actually, she only saw about 10 seconds of it. She was in another room and heard the names, Bette Porter and Faye Buckley. Her head snapped up and by the time she got into the room it was the tail end of the newsperson stating what happened. She didn’t even get to see their pictures.
Did she have to call to find out the DA who was handling the case? No. Could she have just let this be water under the dam, split milk, said and done, over and out? Yes. After all, it was years ago. Would she have been able to live with herself if she didn’t find out whether the information she had was important to this case? No.
So that was that. The DA said she felt it was important and relevant to this case, so now I’m going ‘back home’ once again.
Just keep your eyes on

On the same day 80 miles south of New Haven Helena Peabody was finishing packing also. Well, she won’t have to attend therapy on Thursday. That’s about the only good thing about going to LA this time.

you r so killing us with the surprise witness. this had better be good youg lady. heck i dont know if your young or a lady. hehe. great again. post soon
Always time for T…Wonderful chapter as always…Big Day tomorrow….post soon THANKS…
Arceextl…. This story of yours is getting better and better with every chapter! The build up is absolutely concrete up to this point. I especially love the surprises you introduce in small dozes from time to time. In my humblest opinion it makes the story all the more engaging. Your pace in terms of putting into play the surprise element in my humblest opinion is absolutely well timed! At this point the plot thickens further and the air of anxiety is still high and the readers curiosity is totally pique at the prospect of what Kelly Barrett’s presence will mean to the story line and then there is another bomb you have yet drop yes indeed Helena! Oooooh ….. I can’t wait to see what other curve ball you have in place!
The whole story has been a challenging and a wonderful read! Thanks for sharing your literary talent with the rest of us! On to the next chapter PLEASE!
“I wonder if they had to park their horse blinders at the courtroom door.”
… Ha, great ! I loved it !! God, there’s nothing worse than people like these…
Hmmm… and it’s pretty hard to wait for Nancy’s “Perry Mason moment” now ! It’s a soooo anticipated pleasure…
Finally, your preview for an of-course-not-so-british “T time” is quite irresistible… What a charming cliffhanger ! (lol)
Always excellent : thank you so much for this great story ! ^_^
i love this… bring it on… but first we all want in at the buffet…wink wink
Man..how is Kelly relative to the case? That is the question…damn Arceextl you’re good. This story just keeps getting better and better.
Great chapter, I can hardly wait for Kelly to testify. Nancy is ready to just THROUGH DOWN! I agree with Arceextl, your story just continue to get better all the time. I guess with all that is going on Bette really deserves some T TIME. Please post again soon.
Marvelous, arc! Loved the horse blinders line. I’ll definitely have to use that one in the future. ;) It’s so exciting that the trial’s finally started. I can’t wait to see how this all plays out!
Drama, drama, drama. Oooooh, this is getting good. Helena thinks she’s above it all. Let’s just see if that’s true. Faye Buckley and her hatered is scary. I hope that she has an outburst in the courtroom. Surprise witnesses and all…this is keeping me very interested.
I cant wait to see what is so crucial regarding Kelly and this entire case. Does she have a connection to Faye or Bette? Faye stands by what she did as not doing anything wrong; but I hope like hell that Helena’s involvement comes out during the trial….wont that be juicy?! :)
Post again soon….loving your story!
Can’t wait for B and T to tesify.I hate people who hate.Post soon,we expect alot.
great chapter and I can’t wait for the bi*** go down please post soon
Hmm, who is Helena calling?…
