If Cromley stops to think about the situation as a whole, he should be having Craig arrested for statutory rape. Criminal charges and prison should be forthcoming. But, I AM confused. How does it figure with Craig as the father, that Jennifer would be the grandmother? Because, even after it was determined Craig was the father, Mindy STILL said Jennifer would be the grandmother. Jennifer wouldn't be ANYTHING! Not any legal title. The wife/ex-wife of the father. Nothing more.

The twist with the Hammonds... I cannot imagine where that is going to go, because Brian isn't Joan's blood. And even if that DOES NOT factor in, there is NO WAY on God's green Earth Brian would marry Lindsay. Brian will have more power with Justin than he EVER would with Lindsay. Miss Delusional is at it again.

EMMETT'S GOING TO BE DADDY!

Grr I hate WIPs for this reason I have to wait for the next chapter and I am not patient because this is another one of your great stories. Lindsay and her mother are really revolting people

Brian is related to the Hammonds?!

Lindsay still thinking she knows Brian is as absurd as her attempt to get rid of Justin and get child support from Brian and Melanie! (Though perhaps she should pay them after all they have custody of Gus and she siphoned enough from the support account?)

Brian used his power and money to help others while staying in the shadows while Lindsay used power and money to satisfy her own selfish demands and for attention when no one sees her.

Frankie finding that will is a Godsend cause it means she is taking the last leverage the Viper Squad has left.

Wouldn't it be funny if the document actually states he has to marry a high standing Wasp line which would rule Lindsay out?

Lindsay, Nancy, Virginia, Clara and Joan taking on the most Powerful Wasp Sect will be entertaining as Hell.

Time for Craig to be arrested again he just keeps doing stupid things and they keep backfiring this one should get him placed under the jail this time.

Vance is going to love having Nancy and Lindsay near by they can be One Big Happy Family 😊

Thanks For the Update 😃

Craig is a dunce.  Doesn't he realize that if Jennifer's dna is not in the baby there is no way Justin could be the father?  On the bright side, Em will make a fantastic father.  The bad news is that Lindsay isn't going to come out on top even though she'll try.

I like it. Lindsay having no say. Good for Vance, showing some sense not letting Lyndsay having her way. Being thwarted in her attempts. Glad for Lynette and Emmett. And I agree, with Em decision for not involving Momma Novotony (its her & her OFFspring fault). :)

I'm so excited to see Emmett with his baby, he's going to be a great dad. Lindsay is being rejected by everyone but she continues anyway with his plans foolish. I can not wait to see her with Gardner when he's going to lose everything.

Wonder how it feels to have door after door after door shut in your face?

Gardner was on to her rather quickly. He really should look into changing locks. 

Ron, Lynette and Larry do so well together. Can't wait to see more of them.

Gardner may have the upper hand on Lindsay but he chose to lie down with dogs and the fleas will eat him alive cause Lindsay won't give up and he may be smart but that won't save him from what Constances is going to do to him.

Cause see his cleverness lead to him paying for Lindsay to get out of jail without proper due process, try to blackmail Brain and why before Brian and Justin have even opened their doors he is hemorrhaging clients and employees.

So Yeah Gardner Is A Freaking Genius!

Wonder what Lindsay and Nancy's plan Bs are now that she has been kicked out of the marital home and only had $6000 to get name, and she stands no chance of getting spousal support thanks to her many years of extracurricular activities.

And with Lindsay leaving Gus in a hot car, stealing from her own child her repeated neglect of Gus and get constant kit g to Brian and Melanie I don't see her getting more than the two bucks needed to catch the bus.

Plus Constance being in such control means she won't be getting much from Gatdner since he will need ever dime to pay his legal fees.

Perhaps the Big Q is hiring? lol

Emmett is going to be a Great Father because he has so many examples of what not to do and so much back up that he won't have to worry that his child doesn't have enough growing up.

I hope Lynette and Emmett's kids become the best of friends!

Lynette has a good man in Larry he adores the bonds of her and now that Lynette is pregnant he is going to be a Great Father to their child along with Lynette and Ron is going to enjoy being the doting Grandfather along with Vic and George.

Worth The Wait!!

I can't wait to see how Emmett deals with the baby and how many queen-outs we will have as a result.

How is Lindsay going to find a solution for her stay with Gardner?on her terms? She can't remain in such unstable situation.

What a wonderful chapter.  It is nice to see that Gardner isn't as stupid as I thought.  I can't wait to see how things go with Emmett.  I'm sure that once Jennifer knows, the rest of the family will join forces to make sure everything is in readiness once the baby is ready to come home.

If Lindsay thinks she can get Gardner to do her bidding... well, she should know different. Gardner has lived that live a very long time, and has dealt with many women. Granted, none as conniving as Lindsay, but it was refreshing to see he had her number. And speaking of having her number... it was great to see Ronald and Lynette... and Larry... did as well. Oh, please let us be witnesses to the call to Constance. I have a feeling Lindsay IS NOT going to be gracing the halls of Vanguard. And maybe not even the guesthouse by the time Constance is through with Gardner. Oh dear, wherever will Lindsay lay her head then?  Because the REAL daddy already has her number too. BTW, just how much of Vanguard does Constance own? Would she by any chance have controlling interest?

I wasn't sure what a suburban outback looked like... it wasn't too bad, until I typed in 2002... because we all know how important dates are... and it was bone-ass UGLY! And good luck with Nancy! I'm sure she has already about pissed through her $6,000. Go ahead and try to get your name put on mommy's deed. It might be in the slums of Pittsburgh!

Emmett is going to be a wonderful father. No doubts in my mind. A little girl named Lula would be perfect. But, he might need to hurry. I was only in labor with my first for 42 MINUTES! And I'm not telling you how big he was, as that's coming out in my next chapter! Anyway... I'm wondering why he couldn't stay with George for a while. He would certainly be protected from the whiny, screechy mouse! And George's house is big enough that he should have been able to have his own wing. Can you imagine the fun Emmett would have dressing up a baby girl?

It was healthy update.

Justin shown so maturity. His thoughts on their relationship. Justin's right, he & Brian need to communicate, Speak up ( in Qaf it would hav clear many things & would not been played emotionally by idiots Micheal & Lindsay). It was only cause Justin (and Gus) Brian feel loved & burden free.

Kudos to your writing. Curious for more. Hugs❤

It's sad to read that Daphne's relationship with her parents is that bad.

I'm surprised to read Justin's feelings regarding his relationship with Brian; I thought they were steady. Maybe I missed or doesn't remember something.

It's great to read that Justin is confident enough to have a conversation with Brian.



Author's Response:

Hey Claire,

Brian and Justin ARE steady, but just like with the rest of us when things are going well within our own relationships, he has his moments of doubt and panic that the bubble they are living in won't burst. Plus it doesn't help that he remembers all of his experiences with Brian prior to the bashing, which includes Brian's brand of pain management. Consequently, whenever Brian went into that mode, it was always Justin who suffered the weight of it the most. He's figuring that with all the emotional upheaval, it's bound to happen, and feels the need to prepare in advance for the eventuality; to gauge where he and Brian are going in this new situation, and to check his own responses to everything. They are both still in the process of dealing with PTSD, and getting Justin back on track emotionally, mentally and physically. So him wanting to talk it out is only a natural response to all of the new stressors that are being introduced into their lives, and finding a way to handle them.   

Hope this helps to put Justin's thoughts into perspective for you.

HAPPY READING and HUGS,

~Nichelle

Looks like Brian and Justin need to talk.



Author's Response:

Hi Phyllis,

They definitely do need to communicate. It's something that this whole process of healing is teaching them how to do. And really, it's the only way they are going to be able to have a sustainable relationship regardless of what form it takes down the road.

This was a nice little update. It was good Justin talked everything through with Daphne, I think it probably helped him see things a little better. And that conversation with Brian... he may just end up being surprised how it turns out.

Brian knows what his best friends are capable of and what they have said and done. Maybe Justin's brand of love and honesty is something he might find he's really needing.

I'm not sure if anyone is keeping Mel and Brian abreast of all that's going on in Pittsburgh right now... and I know they can't deal with any of it... but at least knowing ahead of time... might be beneficial.

Well, since Justin, Daphne, John, and Peter were at the restaurant, I'm going to presume that Gus is in the stroller sleeping while they were eating. *smirk*... sorry... couldn't resist.

HUGS  ~Cathy



Author's Response:

LOL! You are presuming correctly. Funny thing about my guys in relation to Gus. The ONLY time Josh and Sam went to sleep AT ALL (or should I say when the heck they were supposed to) is when they were out and about in their strollers. Josh has Wake-Sleep disorder in which for every minute he sleeps equates to 1 hour of awake time. Meaning that if he sleeps for 20 minutes, he's up 20 hours straight. FUN, right? As for Sam, he suffers from insomnia, and both are Elopers. My family has spent many years sleeping in shifts so that we can watch the doors and windows. Needless to say that sometimes we miss their strollers even now! But at almost 24 and 18, we all have learned to keep a good sense of humor about it otherwise. Laughter really is the best medicine in situations like these.

As for everything else.... have you been peeking at my screen all the way from your house? Let me find out you have a spyglass that reaches all the way here, LOL

HUGS and LOVE,

This conversation Brian and Mel see each other as friends both always been, but was blinded cause of Lindsay manuplations of years. Clearing the distances & concerns. I agreed on Qaf Leda is better match with Mel. Lindsay character never behaved equal with anyone.

Judge will on first count ban Cunt Jaon from breathing. Peter & John are Best without & away her. Brian's Right Justin is more a Man than a boy. He always has.

THIS WAS AWESOME!!! I totally LOVED their easy-going camaraderie. You would think they had been best friends all their lives. You did really well with this chapter, Nichelle. BRAVO!

I, too, worried a little about John and Peter, and the lack of DNA, but I would think the state of Pennsylvania, would recognize that Brian took them in, clothed them, fed them, hired a care-giver for them... really has to account for something. And Jennifer could still be a possibility. Molly might have a devious nature, but she's not a BAD child. She would probably love to have kids her age around to help her plot and scheme.

Speaking of which... how's Craig holding up??? Has he had to clean the pigsty or the calf barns, yet? (you, not being a country girl, have no idea how awful a calf barn is!)

Oh Well. Again, I loved the chapter,

Cathy ❤️

Brian and Mel coulda been friends or friendly years of Mel.had just let her insecurity go and talked to Brian man to man lol

She let Lindsay dangle that one night with Brian over her head for Years and it was the proverbial bat (Sorry) she used to beat Mel into submission, if Mel had just asked Brian about that night she would've realized that it meant as much to Brian as a mosquito bite.

Lindsay has been reliving that night with great pleasure while Brian barely acknowledged it actually happened, it was just sex not love, just a horny drunk teenager getting his need met.

She has been so scared that if Brian snapped his fingers Lindsay would drop her faster then you could say "Come Here".

What Mel failed to see was that it was a one time thing Never Ever to be repeated Brian is Totally Without a Doubt 100% Gay!

And he wouldn't sleep with Lindsay again if her twat could produce diamonds nonstop he doesn't want her and he would rather stick his duck in a meat grinder it's warmer.

Mel is seeing with wide open eyes that Brian isn't to blame for Lindsay's behavior it is all in Lindsay who gives a good impression of a grown up but is actually a Spoiled Selfish Brat, who refuses to admit that Brian isn't confused about his  sexuality he is proud of it!

Brian Aiden Kinney Is Gay!!!

No blinders will change that!

Mel is working on embracing Brian as a friend and brother who isn't evil but he is surrounded by evil bike people.

Mel spending time having fun with Leda and Shavonne is good time for Mel to rediscover the woman she was before Lindsay sink her hooks in.

And Besides There Is Nothing Wrong With Getting Your Needs Met, just be honest.

Justin might not be ready for monogamy yet but he should be allowed to make his own decisions.

Going To Be Very Interesting!

I'm almost feeling bad for Gardner, having the harridan's claws on him. He should be careful as if she can't have Brian, she will have to find a new source of income and support.



Author's Response:

Claire! THANK YOU SO MUCH for the 200TH review on this work in progress!! OMG! I can't even tell you how excited I am that it's continuing to be enjoyed!

I almost feel the same way regarding Gardner. You can almost admire his willingness to go the extra mile in whatever he puts his mind to. I mean he must have had to do that several times to have made Vanguard into the company it is, right? However, he should really rethink his strategy when dealing with his cunning cohort. Lindsay is even more driven in her goals than Gardner is. Perhaps he'll see that... But then again, when you make your bed in Hell, be prepared to get burned up by the hot coals!

HAPPY READING, HUGS and MUCH LOVE!
