“Make sure you tell her she has to come to my Fall Collection banquet,” Bette said walking up from behind them.
“Hey there’s a stranger,” Kit said embracing her sister. “How’s work?”
“Busy. This Carvington guy has impeccably high standards for someone who is self proclaimed art illeterate. He has some really rare pieces coming through the museum,” Bette recalled. She went on about the special room the CAC had to have built to stow the aged artifacts during their restoration and some of the artists that were being given jobs to aid in the project. “He seems to have a fondness for people down on their luck,” she mused.
“You are all coming to the banquet, right?” Bette posed after a moment’s silence. The group all nodded their head. They new that Bette needed support more than anything especially since the board of the CAC was giving her a hard time. They had pushed the date for the restoration exhibit up 2 months initially trying to make her work the artists harder while making matters worse of “shortening” her funding.
“Shortening my funding, Franklin? Come on,” she had protested.
“The board feels that untill you actually have more than 3 pieces to work with that it’s jut not worth it to give the project full funding,” he had smiled glaringly. Relunctantly she had mentioned it to Mr. Carvington. He had been silent and she was suddenly fearful he wouldn’t find her living up to her reputation. Instead he laughed.
“Not enough to justify heh? We’ll take care of that,” he had said and sent out 11 more artifacts that same week. He also demanded that the minimum light room be built forwith as the board also felt it was a waste of time until the scrolls and linen arrived from customs. “I want everything ready so Ms. Porter can do her job. Results, Franklin, not a bunch of boardroom excuses.”
“You may be burning bridges with that lit torch of yours, baby sis,” Kit responded with Bette had told her what had happened. “This guy Carvington won’t be around forever, you know, and then you’ll have to deal with Franklin and the board head on.”
“I’m not worried about them. Them I can handle. It’s these impossible deadlines that are stressing me out. But I suppose that is the trade off,” Bette resigned as she took a hot cup of tea.

fabulous story, you’re a really good author!You seem to know the characters very well! I must say I was suprised Carmen doesn’t want to be with Shane anymore ,please don’t let it be that way , they are perfect for one another ,pretty please:)
This is a really impressive story and one that i will definitely be checking for updates. I love how detailed it is and how much thought that has obviously been put into making the story what it is. I thought it was hilarious when Blaine, a Shane look-alike was introduced as Carmen’s new girlfiend.I mean even the name is similar, classic! Anyhow, I hope that Carmen changes her mind, cause she’s Shane’s girl not Blaine’s.
i like the style of writing…cool! keep posting..!!
