Well done! Joan is out and won't be able to attend any other mass. What a vengeance!

Did Lindsay try to convince Michael that her child was Brian's?  At last the church sees Mrs Kinney for the wicked person she is.

Hi I have read every chapter in one go and have laughed and hissed at the baddies lol. Interesting hate you have going on against Debbie lol I totally agree she could have done more for young Brian. I think it’s great to have Lindsay and Michael as narcissistic psychopaths because their level of jealousy and constant need for Brian is real

Aunt Libette is too cute for words and I agree with Gus's Aunt it is just Perfect :)

Michael is finally seeing where he ranks as Brian's former friend, those idiotic gifts didn't deserve any place in Brian's loft or office, cause they are Fugly Junk just like the moron who gave them to him.

Cynthia delivering that crap back to Michael was good but her delivering the restraining orders to them both was Priceless.

Deb really never knew Brian at all if she thinks that therei s still a chance she can regain her place with him, this betrayal is too deep to ever be forgotten or forgiven.

Nancy and Lindsay are spending money like they have an endless faucet, if Ron wanted too and had the legal option to he should try to recover every cent Nancy spent on Lindsay and every cent he had to loan to her that wasn't paid back?

Is Lynnette as rich as Ron?

Lynnette is a self made woman who refuses to rest on her butt every cent she earns fills her with proud cause she really is the opposite of Nancy and Lindsay.

They expect everything to be handed to them and Lynnette works for the right yo spoil herself, plus she is 10xs smarter than both of them put together on her worse day lol

When they go splat it will be Spectacular maybe even gossip wothy? ;)

Fantastic Update :) Thank You So Much

It's nice that Grandpa Ronald and Aunt Libette finally get to meet Gus and Jenny.  I'm still a bit confused with Robbie and the meeting with Deb and Michael.  Is Deb on the shit list?  What do Nancy and Lindsay hope to accomplish?

Hello there,

Have to deliver a fast review to this chapter… bevor you post the new one -,-

Aaaah yeah… how predictable; Michael's ingenuity strikes again. He didn’t even bother to check what the nickname meant with which he was struck. Well, this is another lesson Mikey will never learn: only because Brian says something 'sounds cool' doesn’t necessarily mean it is in fact cool.

And really!? What the heck is Nancy's Problem? She lived her whole life in a privileged manner. There was always enough of everything; food, cloth, shelter, money… highly likely even staff to clean after her pompous ass – she doesn’t had to lift a finger to live the comfortable idle life of the well-heeled and it still isn’t enough??

There was never a need for her to work and I'm sure that is the crucial source of the problem. She obviously was bored and had to fill her time with something. And because it wasn't filed with earning a living or simply doing house chores, she had way too much time to weave intrigues, to be conniving and poisonous. If this Tarantula had had to work at one point in her life for the money she spent and hoarded, she would see the world with a completely different view.

It is scary, but this woman seems to be totally morally corrupted to the last fiber of her existence. She does not seem to have a problem with her daughter cheating, stealing and blackmailing the people around her. On the contrary! She is recognizably proud of a criminal. This raises the question of how far Nancy herself is stuck in illegal activities, because she shows signs of a profuse criminal energy and we all know she has molded Lindsay to her image. And Lindsay learned way too well.

I had a nasty grin on my face when Nancy and Lindsay were confronted with the Kinney clan. It is really funny that the sophisticated and glamorous grandmamma and the so very highly knowledgeable and experienced art connoisseur don't speak French. Unfortunately, those two creatures are as dense as the Grassi/DeVores and don't want to see that they are history. I'm looking forward to the time when Nancy will try to pull rank in her WASP-community only to be ostracized by her 'very good friends'. Or when Lindsay recognizes that Sidney has way more pull in the art-community than she ever had and will ever have. The gall of this abominable toad to think Sidney's house is going back to her efforts; I'm sure the Bloom's had their house way before Sidney even knew Lindsay.

Nancy and Lindsay are like two peas in a pod and Ron should really, really get rid of them as fast as he can. He still has Lynette, the disappointment in Nancy's book (maaan, this woman is definitely not a jot better than Joan or Debbie in the mothering department. Disgusting!). In my opinion Nancy sees her older daughter as useless because she can't (and won't) satisfy her mother's greed. She can't have children, so there's no opportunity to marry her of to an upper class man that wants to have a breeding mare and therefore pays Nancy for bearing her and advance her social standing. We have a pointer to that as Nancy instantly starts scheming as Ron mentioned the 'single billionaire'. Madam Pimpress wanted to immediately marry Lindsay of to a completely stranger because there laid a very distant smell of money in the air. I think Lynette's only flaw is that she has decency and dignity and works for her keep. That she married a man she loved is one very big positive to. She has a good heart, is capable of love and compassion and that raised her way above her mother and sister… her willingness to raise Lindsay's baby only proofs my point.

Well, I have a feeling that it will be quite full on the side of the defense attorneys when Lindsay and Nancy will join the ranks of the defendants. Child trafficking for adoption is a serious charge – I haven't done much research only a cursory look at Google but I have read that there is the possibility of imprisonment up to 14 years and a fine. Marvelous future prospects for the grandmamma and the best horsey in her stable… (woe… am I nasty but I like it!)

Ok, enough raved... great chapter as ever

See you soon!

Holy Crap!!!!!

That had to hurt Nancy and Lindsay's pride to know that they have been outsmarted yet again (Like It Was Hard To Do!!) and that their dastardly plans are for nothing cause they will still lose.

Especially if they could also be charged with abuse, Hell just the threat of prosecution and Deb coming after both of them should have them scared.

But Stupid is As Stupid Does and they can't see what a Wasp Freeze Out is like or what Deb is like when she is set on revenge.

Lindsay should know Brian doesn't lie he just doesn't give out information if no one asks, Brian being a Billionaire is no one's business but Brian, his account, lawyer, Justin and kid/kids.

Lindsay thinking about selling her baby with Nancy helping her is aagainst the law and so it looks like they might be joining Deb, Michael and Joan sooner than they think in prison :)

My goodness Brian has some good people protecting him cause right now his Fortress of Solitude is Impenetrable and the others are in quicksand and despite ignoring the warning signs they are sinking fast lmao.

Lynnette will make an excellent mother because she knows what not to do to raise a child and with some new friends she has good strong support when it gets overwhelming.

Three Fantastic Updates to your stories really made my Sunday.

Thanks :)

What a great chapter.  This story is so full of twists and turns.  Just love it.

Hi Mädels,

Well, John clearly shows one thing: the Kinney-genes (… or maybe they are from Joan?) are fantastic if they are applied right and they are assertive. They have wrestled every other gene-pool into submission; John Sr.'s as well as Lindsay's. And if they are used to their full potential there is no stopping someone who has them.

Arthur and John seem to have figured out what was going on with Michael and it is no surprise that it was plain old jealousy to cause his wrecking of Brian's life. Disturbing on this realization is that Michael even as a 14-year old was a conniving sleazebag without any consideration and sympathy who doesn't even try to make a future for himself due to lack of drive and his boundless laziness. Even at that early date he didn't waste a thought on any possibility regards an proper education or a good paying job, his only goals seemingly were to wriggle thru life without lifting a finger, exploiting from whatever source would show. And he already was a thief too… lifting Debs diary – I don’t think she 'lost' it.

The Taylors being the connection to Ron is good; they know how to communicate with him so that his appendages don't realize what's going on. And he really seems to work toward a relationship with Gus and Jenny. I'm looking forward for the approaching Ron-Peterson-Jailbreak from the Nancy-Rock… and his warden is still thinking he is afraid of the society-sharks…

It was a great surprise that Ron's sister is Brian's and Mikey's old principal. She really seems to have a detailed knowledge of Brian's history and she does like him; that much is clear as day. Well, her relationship with her niece and sister in law are the exact opposite. This woman will do everything to rescue Ron from those run-down hyenas… helping Brian will be an added well received bonus with nearly as big a magnitude. It's good that she can provide a look into the distend past and bring some of the happenings to the attention of the family, like Debbie's look on Michael's and Brian's grades or such things. Robbi is a force to be reckoned with; Deb and Joan should better seek cover.

See you at chapter 48…

Whoa Roberta Is Fierce!!

Lindsay and Nancy are in trouble because Roberta is not a person they can browbeat, seduce or bully to get their way.

Small world that Roberta knew Brian and Michael liked Brian despised Michael (Shocker), and saw that Deb used Brian to keep Michael from flunking out of school.

John is a Genius who saw that Deb was keeping a diary and telling on Brian cause she knew Michael would never measure up and she resented Brian, despite the abuse Brian still succeeded and Michael barely tried.

I think it was jealousy on both their parts Deb and Michael really do have a love/hate relationship with Brian, every time he succeeded it showed that they had no hand in it and that Brian really didn't need them, if Brian had ever really, truly looked past all the stuff Deb allegedly did then he would turn his back on them, and they couldn't bask in his success or be envied for being his "Family"

Ron is going to see his grandchildren and Nancy is abput to meet "The Family"

Hope Deb is ready to face her past?

Read all the current chapters and they are great.  Love how you are moving the story along and the new characters make it interesting.  Just always happy when Michael & Lindsay are in trouble or in their case, more trouble.  Terrific job.

The painting is beautiful!

Ronald is planning something and I can't wait to see it. Lindsay and Nancy think they will be able to remain in Pittsburgh; they will be very disappointed very soon.

Great analysis of the money situation: how was Joan able to give money to Debbie while there wasn't any in the Kinney's household. I bet Joan would be mortified if the information was known.
