“I’m certain that you already did the job really well, Mr. Cooper.”
Cooper nods in agreement, feeling happy for Bette’s compliment.
“You see, Bev, I like you, you are smart, that’s for sure…but you’re also courteous, being with you I can feel pleasant and comfortable, you’re not arrogant, that’s good. I dislike arrogant, it is not a good thing. The previous accountants I hire…were so…let’s see…how do I describe them…”
“Narcissist?” Bette says.
“I would consider calling them egomania.” Cooper smiles.
“I will have to apologize for that, most accountants do act like that in some ways.”
“But you don’t.” Cooper’s smile grows bigger. “Justine told me you are the smartest girl she’s ever seen, I can see why she said that now.”
“Well, Miss Cooper must be exaggerating, I can never keep my pace with her.”
Cooper gestures to the servant, the boy quickly brings her another glass of whiskey.
“Really? Why do you say so?”
Oops. Here comes the tricky question.
“I don’t know Miss Cooper really well, I…seldom saw her in this mansion…The only time was I first came to this place while she tested my language ability, which really impressed me how many languages she can speak.”
“Keep going.”
“I’ve seen her handling the business and dealing with the customers, only once actually, but which really blew out my mind.”
“She was brilliant, wasn’t she?” Cooper continues smiling brightly, Bette feels a shiver runs through her body.
“Yes, sir.”
“Tell me about yourself, Bev, tell me about the life of the highly educated.”
“Oh, I won’t call myself a highly educated…”
“The thing is, Bev, none of us, in this room, received the same educational opportunity as you. Not to put too fine a point on it, most of us are all savage, boors, you can say, only good at using guns and fist, which is pity…I was really interesting about you, what is your former life about? Why decide to become an accountant?”
“No offense, Mr. Cooper, but I really don’t think I have anything special in my life, I mean, all I did is study.”
“I doubt that,” Cooper interlocks his fingers. ”There must be something interesting, as an amazing woman like you, it’s hard to believe that you can only use your brain to ease our customers, as an accountant, it was unusual. I’ve already heard what you have done in the deal, I was speechless.”

Author Notes:
Hey guy, I believe some of you might find that this chapter is also hard to read, but some part of this chapter was base on the true story. One of my friends used to be in the underworld and he has witnessed the horrible scene. After listening to his story I really want to write it down and let the others know about it.
As you can see in the teaser, this is the last chapter that carried the drama between Bette and Tina so far, which I believe it was the best timing to tell what happened to Tina years ago. I will fix it after today and yes I already finished the next chapter. So don’t worry, be patient and wait for them to get together. Chapter 16, revealing the missing 5 years.

I don’t mean to be nasty but you really must check your grammar and spelling because it is detracting from what is a good story! Please have some proof your writing.

Hi! Thanks for the chapter!
So, who is the person trying to set up Bette? Can it be Sam because of jealousy? Because i really tired of her.
Waiting for the next!
Crystal J.H says
Hi Zhenya:
I know, Sam is not my favorite character either, but don’t you think it’s good to know there’s another person love Tina then Bette? Sam did help Tina a lot.
Thanks for your comment!

Zhenya says
Maybe Sam helped, but i doubt that she’ll be ok whan she find out about feelings between B&T
Bibi28 says
Wow, that was a horrible scene, so cool blooded ????.
I wonder who set up the trap for Bette, must be Jodi or maybe L?
Despite the horror, i had to laugh a little bit about Bette’s words of there was a reunion when Sam told her who she was.
That Cooper bastard, to hurt his daughter like that, he is a evil, bloody bastard, what ever he did to Tina i hope she will survive.
About the reasers, please update soon, can’t hardly wait!!!
Crystal J.H says
Hi Bibi28:
Indeed! But truly, the boss in the underground can do anything he wants to his people, even his children.
My friend told me that even if his boss’s son did something wrong, he would still punish him just like others. To them, rules mean everything and they need to follow everything he said.
This setup person will be very hard to be found, but who knows? Maybe Tina will figure it out.
I sure will update as soon as possible, just need to make it better.
Thanks for your comment, hope you like the new chapter!

Hi CJ:
Excellent chapter. Poor Tina, I think now every reader will understand why she could forgive Bette after what happened in high school, she has ‘thick skin’, as we said in my hometown’. Tina was always treated very badly either by her criminal father and by the authorities, as the FBI Aaron.
Remembering when Tina asked Bette, five years ago, if she would chase her if Tina were a criminal, and Bette was perplexed with the question; then when it was Tina who suggested her to become a detective; now I think it’s clear to me that was what Tina really wanted since she was a teen.
proteonomics says
Hi CJ:
Tina knew that her future was already ‘written in stone’, she knew that her father will come back for her, to make her part of her criminal empire, she knew she was bound to his criminal activity; she couldn’t escape, because her father will catch her anyway; she didn’t have the help outside the criminal world, because the ‘so-called good people’ hate her because of her father and her personal weirdness, only Bette was her hope, and deep down inside she wanted Bette to be the one to capture her, to stop all the crime, the pain, the cruelty of the criminal world in her life; to be her redeemer, her defender from the hands of her father and his organization; even when she couldn’t admit it. But, things turned a little different, with the participation of Adele 5 years ago, and Tina had to be strong and survive in her father’s world, making a plan to flee from it with the help of her friends Shane and Sam, and suddenly, her old and vivid flame, Bette Porter, came to her life again.
proteonomics says
Hi CJ
I know Tina has been punished badly by her criminal father, but she will resist, and it’s time for Bette to ‘mature’, to be wiser; they have to find who is threatening Tina’s or Bette’s lives in the organization, who took the 50 k, and they have to speed up on their plan to flee away and come clean (so hard this part, but it may be possible in this story).
My guess is, that Jody is behind of the lost money, she is not alone, but she is mad given that her source of drugs that was Tom, is gone, and because she hates Tina and probably wants to be the favorite of Sebastian Cooper and of course, perhaps she wants Bette too.
Sorry, I’ve unleashed my imagination; but this was a pretty great chapter. Thanks again, waiting for the next one.

DumplinT says
totally with ya when is Bette gonna wise up and toughen up.
DumplinT says
Looks like Tina survives her punishment, but I figure she’ll need plastic surgery. Devil-dad will make sure everyone else can “see” the consequences of disobedience. Now she’ll have a scars on the outside to match those on the inside??? Uugh!!!!!
DumplinT says
Wondering who set Bette up with the mysterious ph call when Shane&Bette were riding in the vehi on way back to the compound???? Went back to chapter 14 and found on pg 3 that Sam gave Bette the phone that had only 2 numbers.
whoever called knew that Bette wouldn’t know the Boss’ voice. I think that person also knew that Bette woudn’t follow Tina’s explicit warnings & instructions. Ol bette could be counted on to do her own thing.
She was there what a day or 2 before she wandered out into the garden and got jumped by Jodi (who she couldn’t even fend off)? I think Shane had to rescue her.
On pg 14 of same chptr when Tom,Shane, & Bette were talking w druglord Wang,Shane noticed that B was fooling with a device (believe this was a ph from her Informant contact named “L”)in her pocket. Shane gave B a glaring stare to cut it out.
Wonder if the ph signal actually went to the “good” guys???
Shane & Sam are the two closest ti Tina & they have been thru the fire with her. They are the ones who can’t be thrilled that clueless Bette showed up!!
DumplinT says
gosh i hope im wrong, but do the words of psychopath-dad on pg 14 of this chpter reveal that he’s been “touching” his daughter inappropriately??? Justine balled up her fists so tightly that her nails drew blood.
Jane says
I strongly believe I know who L is but I won’t reveal it cuz if your story leads to L’s identity I don’t want to spoil the story for you. I too believe that Sam set up Bette with the boss thinking Bette would be killed. However that didn’t work and Tina paid the price. I also liked when Bette tells an injured Tina that she loves her. Can’t wait for next chapter.
