As much as Helena was used to winning, she’d never experienced the wrath of a woman scorned nor was she ever up against a mother’s love for her children; no matter what tactic Helena employed Winnie was not intimidated. She was willing to do everything in her power to keep her two children from their narcissistic other mother.
After slamming the phone against the wall Helena went in search of the kids and found them having breakfast with Tina and the nanny. In a spur of the moment decision she told everyone that they were going to Sea World, totally putting out of her mind that she’d just made plans with Winnie to see the children for lunch. She tried to convince Tina to go with them, but she had another commitment.
“I have to work today. I’m doing a youth arts outreach program for K through 6 at Venice Beach. I …”
“Pat and Hilma can handle it. We’re going to San Diego. You and me; we’re taking my children to Sea World.”
“I can’t Helena.”
“Yes, you can. They are completely capable of running that workshop on their own. I’ll just call them right now.”
Tina was incredulous at Helena’s audacity but the more time she spent with Helena the more she saw this controlling and manipulative side of her personality. Helena had also mentioned the night before that the kids were supposed to have lunch with her ex. San Diego was almost three hours away and if they were going to Sea World it would be an entire day spent. They would not get back until early evening but sensing Helena’s mood she didn’t bring it up.
Helena was so used to having her way without any resistance that she was surprised when Tina stood her ground about attending the workshop. Eventually they agreed that Tina would come back to the beach house for dinner once Helena and the kids returned from Sea World. Helena grudgingly accepted the rejection and stormed out telling the nanny to have the kids ready in 30 minutes.
Having spent time with Helena’s children, and the day at Venice Beach with the kids from the center Tina was feeling especially maternal and for some reason Bette Porter kept crossing her mind. She and Bette had started talking and although she had not forgiven Bette for her betrayal, the anger and hostility was dissipating.

Thank you for the chapter!
it’s hard to comment after most ridiculous final of the most ridiculous final season ever (yeah, i’m talking about final of 8th season GoT). And i must say if we can compare with this disaster – final season of our TLW was not so bad:)
so, after explanation about time where this chapter take place – i’m not confuce anymore.
Zhenya – sorry you were disappointed with GoT finale. I’m one of very few people that never watched the show in the ten years it was on, so I can’t comment.
Thanks for reading and glad the explanation lessened any confusion on the timeline. I’m back to the present; just wanted to give some background.
Hi Bat,
Interesting chapter and a good eye opener to Helena’s character, just because she has money she thinks she can do anything and destroy innocent people.
She is a pure evil and bitch, unfit as mother and i am glad that Winnie has the support of Bette to win the custody battle.
The scene between Helena and Winnie was also a eye opening for Tina and the first step in admitting Bette as the mother of her child.
I look forward to the next chapter!
Bibi28. Helena certainly did exhibit a pattern of behaviors in the way she approached her relationships. I didn’t care for her character on the show, but I think she helped Bette and Tina’s relationship to be better the third time around. Tina was less inhibited and Bette less controlling.
