Adele’s Pov I blushed with shame. Even though I was the one being abused, I was feeling the shame my abuser should had felt. Crazy right? “Nothing.” I lied. “It’s just that when he is drunk he becomes a different person.” I said wishing I could go into detail but I was too embarrassed to tell her everything. “He calls me names, especially since that incident at the pool party.” “I saw the pictures. I am so sorry. It’s my fault for allowing ever idiot in. The guy wasn’t even on the guest list and nobody I spoke to admitted to inviting him. Heaven knows how he snuck in and I haven’t seen him since. If I do catch him he will regret it. Dad told me you had been set up, and I believe that. I hope Dan does too.” “He dosen’t.” I said sadly. “He thinks I tried cheating on him and was caught.” “He shouldn’t think that. It is clear someone set you up. Any idea who?” I hesitated for a minute. The only people who would have loved to see me in trouble, Karen and Tina, didn’t even know

Tina was eating popcorn in the living room and watching her favorite reality TV show when Karen came in. She quickly turned down the volume. “Well? How did it go?” She asked eagerly. “Where is Dad?” Karen asked. “In bed. Forget him tell me how it went.” “As planned. We spent the evening together. First we went to a restaurant to have dinner, then to a bar to have a few drinks.” “And?” “And then he had to go home to that bitch.” Karen frowned “You should have convinced him to go with you to a hotel as planned.” “I really tried mom. I even tried to seduce him in his office, but it didn’t work. He is afraid of his old man. Chris has threatened to disown him if he gets involved in any scandal.” “What about Adele? The shameless tramp had her pictures of her in a bikini kissing some guy all over the net. What does he say about that?” “Nothing. The whore isn’t a co-CEO I guess.” “You need to act fast. The earlier you get pregnant for him the quicker your chan

Adele’s Pov I lay awake for a good part of the night crying softly. How could Dan say all those mean things? That I had been sleeping around since I was thirteen? I had lost my virginity at twenty to Harry, my first and only boyfriend. I had given it to him because I loved him and hoped we would get married. So who was feeding Dan all these lies, or was he making them up to justify being an asshole towards me? Maybe, since he had boldly admitted he was having an affair, maybe slandering me was a way to justify it and ease his conscience. I wondered who the woman could be. An ex? Or someone he had met recently? Was she pretty? I shook my head, determine not to fall into that destructive self blame pattern. If he was cheating then there was something wrong with him not me. I sighed. This wasn’t the way I pictured my marriage would be. I really needed to talk to someone. I thought of Jack but it was late, I didn’t want to disturb him. I could talk to Rachel, she had asked me

Adele’s Pov I had no time to fall into depression. I picked up Jay and had to put on a happy face. I didn’t want him asking questions. Although my tensed expression would have given me away, but he was too excited about something to notice. And he didn’t waste any time telling me the reason for his excitement. “Mommy,” he said as we settled in the cab. “Our teacher said the 15th of this month is bring your dad to school day. We are supposed to bring our daddies to talk about their jobs.” I felt my heart sink. “That’s great honey.” I mumbled knowing what was coming next. “I want to ask Mr. Dan to come and be my daddy.” “No.” I said quickly. I saw I had startled him and softened my voice. “You can’t ask him sweetheart.” “Why?” “Because he is very busy. He won’t have time.” “Can”t he try? Everyone else is going to have their daddy there.” “No he can’t sweetheart. I am sorry.” “Let me ask him.” “No. There is no need. He won’t have the time. He is a business man

Dan sat in the living room sipping coffee. He had woken up slightly later than usual and wanted to be done and out of the house before Adele and her brat were awake. He licked his dry lips as he remembered last night. After all the things Karen had told him Adele had done as a teenager and how disgusting she was, he had swore not to look at, let alone touch her. He had told himself her touch would irritate him yet last night, as he watched her walk to close the window his eyes had refused to leave her well shaped ass. And when he’d held her hand and looked into her eyes after her little accident, he had felt nothing but desire for her. If she hadn’t spoken and brought back a memory he was trying desperately to forget he would have ripped off her flimsy night dress and fucked her right there. Damn! If he were the superstitious type he would have sworn she was a witch. How else could she make him hate yet want her so much? Even now as he remembered how she’d looked in her tiny,

I stared at Dan and my son in shock. Was I dreaming or were they both laughing and talking? I bit my lip and felt pain. Nope, it was no dream. “Good morning mommy. Mr Dan is going to come to my school on daddy’s day.” Jay said proudly. “I gave him a business opp…opp..” “Opportunity.” Dan said holding back a laugh. Jay blushed. “ That word is so hard to say.” “Come on you will be late for school.” I stammered still very confused “If you are quick enough I can drop you off.” Dan said glancing at his watch. My jaw dropped. What? When did this good guy act start? “Yippee! Come on mom let’s hurry.” He said pulling me towards the stairs. “What is going on?” I asked Dan. “Why the sudden change?” His smile faded and he looked me up and down. “I see a business opportunity.” He said and turned to his coffee. Puzzled, I went to join my son. I got him ready and after breakfast Dan drove him to school. After they left I sat in the living room thinking about t

Dan grunted and tried to turn in his sleep. He knew immediately he wasn’t in his bed. He opened his eyes and closed them immediately, cursing softly as the living room light hurt his eyes. Where the fuck am I? He thought. He guessed he was lying on the couch, but his head was lying on something warm and soft and human? He managed to open his eyes, and forced himself to sit up. He was startled to see Adele sitting on the couch fast asleep. He realized he had been lying on her lap. He looked round the room, trying to remember what had happened. He saw the plate, coffee cup and bits of bread crumbs and it came back to him slowly, but it was still very vague Fuck! He wished he didn’t black out after drinking. He got to his feet and frowned at Adele, then sighed and tenderly lifted her in his arms. She didn’t stir as he carried her upstairs. He took her to her bedroom and lay her on the bed. Looking at her beautiful face, and sexy body beneath the night gown he was tempte

Karen came home in a very bad mood. “Honey what happened?” Her mom asked as she marched into the living room. “Why are you back so soon? I wasn’t expecting you till late or maybe tomorrow even.” Karen didn’t answer. She went to the fridge to get a bottle of water. She needed it to cool her temper. Then she came back and dropped into the chair next to her anxious mother. “What happened with Dan? Were you caught?” Tina asked. “No. He was a no show. Where is dad?” “He went to do something at the office. What do you mean?” “I mean he didn’t show up at the hotel.” She said irritably. “He cancelled at the last minute.” “Did he say why?” “No, but I can bet that bitch has something to do with it.” She said bitterly. She was furious that Adele had ruined a perfect plan, which had been to get Dan to the hotel and seduce him. Tina had given her sleeping pills to make the job easier in case Dan proved difficult. She had been determine Dan would sleep with Karen, willingl

Adele’s Pov “I am letting her go that’s what. What you are doing is crazy Tina! And I won’t support you.” Dad said. “You idiot! I am trying to help you solve a problem!” Tina yelled. “Just like I did with her useless mother.” “What?” I asked wide-eyed. “What do you mean? Did you have something to do with Claire’s death?” He asked. “Yes I did dumbass! What else was I suppose to do. You said you couldn’t be with me because you didn’t want to divorce her so I had to kill her. You mentioned she was going to Palo Alto to see her stupid friend so I waited on a quiet part of the road pretending I had engine trouble, when the fool stopped to help, I hit her on the back of the head and drove her car off a cliff. So your problems were solved.” “How could you be so evil Tina?” Dad asked shocked. “Shut up! I did it to help you. You should be thanking me! Now lock them up and stop being an idiot.” “Never! You have done enough. It ends now. I was an idiot to have had anything to do with you

Tina met Jason the same place she had met Adele. “What took you so long?” She asked suspiciously. “I went by a longer route. I wanted to make sure I wasn’t being followed.” He explained. “Okay, so you have everything?” “Yeah,” he said pointing to his case. “I heard you kidnapped Adele too?” “Yes to increase the ransom.” They began walking to the beach house. “She was the target, I used her son to get her. Tell me about Adele being Chris’ daughter, Claire cheated on you? I am not surprised. She was as useless as her daughter.” “There isn’t much to tell. Chris just told me she wasn’t my daughter, it explained a lot of things.” They got to the house and met Karen having lunch. “Dad! I was so happy when Mom said you were joining us. I hope you aren’t mad I didn’t tell you I was leaving?” “No. I wish you had though. Where is Adele and Jay?” “There.” Tina pointed to a door. “Let me see them.” Tina picked up a bunch of keys on the table and opened the door. Adele and Jay were s

“How could we be so stupid?” Dan groaned. He was pacing the living room very upset. “I was the idiot.” Chris said. “I should have known what Tina was up to when she didn’t want Adele around. In fact I should have had bodyguards here the minute this happened.” “It won’t have helped. From what the housekeeper said Tina didn’t rush in and kidnap her she lured her away.” Rachel said. “Jay and now Adele have been taken. What kind of an idiot am I not to have seen this?“ Chris asked helplessly. “Beating yourself up won’t help. We have to find a way to get them back.” Rachel said. “I am going to talk to Jason, he is going to tell me where his crazy wife is hiding.” Chris fumed. “I will come with you.” Dan said. “No. You two stay here and let me handle it.” Rachel said and left. Jason was staring at his dinner when Rachel walked in. “It is time to come clean Jason, where is Tina? Chris is right, you know where she is and you are hiding it from us.” She said. “I am not in t

The phone call had shaken Adele and Dan, but Rachel told them not to get upset. “Tina is trying to get to you guys, don’t let her win. You have to be strong.” She said. “I'm trying but it isn’t easy,” Adele cried. “Tina is crazy, what if she hurts him?” “She won't, she needs him to carry out whatever evil plan she has. Don’t worry, she will call again.” Two days later, Tina called Chris during lunch time. “Hey Chris, how are you? I'm calling you because you have what I need.” She said. “ You evil bitch! Where is Jay?” “The brat is fine don’t worry.” “If you harm him-“ “Why should I? I need him. I have no intention of hurting him. I just want to make a deal and I will let him go. Having him here is annoying.” “What do you want?” “Money.” “How much?” “I will tell you, but first call Dan and Rachel to your office by 4 pm. I want them to be there when I call. Do not call Adele.” “Why only Dan and Rachel? And why 4 pm? What are you up to?” He asked suspiciously.

Tina called Jason as he drove home. “Tina, what is going on? Is Karen with you?” He asked. “Calm down she is. I know you didn’t want her to know about our plan, but I couldn’t help contacting her. I hope you are not mad?” “Not really, although I wish you had told me first. Did she take Adele’s son?” “Yes, the brat is here.” “Tina that is kidnapping! She could be in big trouble! Why did you get her mixed up in this?” “Relax, no one is getting into trouble. We are going make money from this. I needed her help to pull it off.” “Money? How?” “From the ransom of course.” “Tina this is a bad idea.” “No it isn’t. Just calm down and leave it to me okay?” “Sure, take care of Karen, and please keep in touch.” When Jason got home he sank into a chair feeling tired and upset. He had guessed something was wrong when he tried to call Karen and couldn’t get through, then when he'd come home Marie had told him Karen had packed her bags to go on a camping trip. He had guessed s

Adele’s pov I couldn’t stop crying. Dan sat beside me trying to console me. Brenda was crying quietly in the armchair and Chris was on the phone, calling everyone he could think of to help find Jay. “This is all my fault,” Brenda said “No it is,” Dan said. “You didn’t get there on time because an accident delayed you, and I am very sure the accident was caused by Tina.” “It is my fault.” I cried. “I caused this. I brought Karen into our lives. You warned me Dan but I was stupid enough to trust her!” “Stop blaming yourself. It’s not your fault she turned out to be a witch, you couldn’t have known.” “Dan is right,” Chris said, None of you are to blame. We will find Jay, and arrest Karen and Tina, I promise.” The housekeeper led Dad into the room. “I got your message,” he said, “what’s going on? You said Karen kidnapped Jay? That’s impossible why would she do that?” “Because she is a psycho just like her mom and she needs to be stopped!” Chris fumed. ‘It is time to come

“Calm down Brenda, there must be some mistake,” Adele said trying to control her panic. “No! I got here and I couldn’t find him!” “Okay, I am on my way,” Adele said. She was trembling as she hung up and told Dan what had happened. “Calm down babe there must be a mistake somewhere. We will go to the school together.” He said. On the way to the elevator, Chris called him. “Dan I need to see you.” “Not now Dad-“ “It's urgent.” “I will wait in your car,” Adele said. Dan almost ran to Chris’ office. The man who had been with Karen was standing next to Chris. They were listening to a recording on a mobile phone on Chris’s desk. “Dad please make it snappy,” Dan said rushing in. “Listen to this.” Chris said. “I am in a hurry dad, tell me what it is.” “I found out where Zoey and her mom are living, somewhere across town. I sent one of my people to them to see what they were up to, and found out they were planning to hack into our company and steal millions, so I sent this guy to

She thought about the lunch and laughed, did the stupid Adele believe she was trying to be her friend?She is dumber than I imagined, Karen thought.She went to her room to wait for her mom’s call. It came an hour later.“Mom, I have been waiting.”“Sorry honey, I wanted to make sure you were back, how did it go?”“Better than I expected, I have the information.”“Meet at the usual place.”Karen hurriedly drove to the beach. Tina entered the car as soon as she stopped it.“I have everything Mom. I went to Adele and pretended I wanted to work with her, the fool believed my good girl act. I was able to get the info you wanted about her son.”“Smart girl! I knew I could rely on you. I have been gathering some information too and now have an idea of his routine.”“But why go through this stress, Mom? Can't we go straight to Adele?”“We can but it’s more difficult. Using her son to get to her is easier.”‘Okay, you said Dad is not to know about it?”“Not yet, till I'm sure he can be of hel

It was past dinner time when Karen came home.“You are late for dinner.” Her dad said.“Yeah I went for a walk. I have thought about what you said and you are right, Adele heading the company isn’t so bad. I want to work with her.”“I am glad you see things my way. I will call her tomorrow and tell her you are coming over.”“I hope we will be able to mend out relationship.” Karen smiled falsely.The next afternoon she walked into Adele’s office.“Dad told me you would be coming.” Adele said.“Yeah. I need a job. Sitting around waiting to hear from mom is driving me crazy.”“I am sorry about what happened. Chris has promised to help if she gives herself up.”“Dad told me. We are grateful. And I am sorry for all the awful stuff I did and said.” Karen said sounding remorseful.“Let’s move past that. I have a job for you in the media department, would you like that?”“Sure. I would love it.”“Okay, you can start tomorrow.”“How about you tell me a little about the job.” Karen said.“Sure.
