Chapter3: Revenge
Summary: Kathryn and Sebastian each hatch plans against each other.
"Repeat that one more time!" Sebastiann screamed into the phone.
The customer service rep sighed and struggled to remain calm. "Mr. Valmont I am sorry but your account is overdrawnn and we cannot honor your check."
"Are you shitting me? Do you knnow who my father is?" Sebastian asked in disbelief. He had been drawn into this nightmare when a very angry Blomingdales called him to inform him that his five hundred check had bounced. He knew full well that his accounts was always kept with a minimim of one thousand. A call to his business manager informed him of his apparent lack of funds to cover the lousy check.
"Mr Valmont the Bank is aware of who your father is and I repeat we cannot do anything if there is no money in your account." The bank employee said in a very polite but firm voice.
"This is an outrage my father can buy this damn bank with just the money kept in his checking account." Sebastian informed thecustomer service rep.
"Mr Valmont your father's account inndeed does have ample money in his account, but the check is in your name, so unfortunely our hands are tied."
"You will hear from my father." Sebastian threatened and slammed the phone down. What the hell is going on? This smelled of Kathryn, but even she was uncapable of breaking into a bank's computer and emptying his account. The again it's not like she could have gotten someone else to do it for her.
Fine Kathryn you wanna play hard all, Sebastain thought to himself and grabbed his car keys.
*********************
Kathryn was in a very good mood and somehow came into a great deal of money, so she planned to shop till she dropped. What she would give to see poor Sebastian's face when he was told he had no money. Zero.
All it really took was looking up a former class mate and the smartest boy in the whole damn school. Simon Russel was a whiz at computers and like the rest of the male population of Manchester Prep had a crush on her. At first he was hesitant of doing something so risky, so Kathryn asked him to a romantic dinner to discuss the "little prannk" she wanted his help in. Once Kathryn pulled the seductive routine, Simon was helpless. Granted Kathryn had to deal with Simon's slobbery kisses and roaming hands pawing at her breasts. But what's a little sacerfice for a great scheme.? She also made sure she that he transferred the money to her account. Since she was aware of the fact that Sebastian's father made sizeable deposits into Sebastian's account. It was only fair since her mother put Kathryn on a strict monnthly allowence.
"Excuse me Miss Mertueil." A security guard tapped Kathrynn on the shoulder.
Kathryn felt a shiver of fear when the security guard approached her. Since as long as Kathryn could remember she had a nasty habit other then her cocaine habit., shoplifting. Nothinng big just a few small items here or there. Nothing she ever used, but the rush of getting away was too good to resist. "Yes?" Kathryn asked.
"Would you mind coming in the back with me?", the security guard asked politely.
"No." Kathryn said snidely and turned her back on him. It was because not five minutes ago she pocketed a leather belt.
The security guard tapped Kathryn on the shoulded once more. "I am sorry I must insist that you come in the back with me or we could always do this at the police station." The security guard said very firmly.
People were starting to stare and the one thing Kathryn hated was to be embarrassed. "Vey well." Kathryn said rudely and followed the security guard into the back room.
Once there the security guard motioned her to sit down. The store manager also had joined them. "Please emty your pocketbook." The security guard asked.
Kathryn had no choice and began emptying the contents of her pocketbook. Once she pulled out the belt she feigned shock. "I must have put this there absent mindedly." Kathryn said in a way of explantation and smiled her charming smile.
The security guard and the manager remained stont faced. "Miss Mertueil we might have bought that before, but we have come to be informed of your previous thefts." The bank manager said.
"Excuse me?" Kathryn demanded. This was not happening. The only person that knew of her shoplifting besides her was Sebastian. She was gonna kill him! "Are you aware of who my family is?" Kathryn asked in an arrogant voice.
"Yes we are and that is why we all we are not gonna pursue this any further."
Kathryn silently sighed in releif. "However." The store manager said " We ask that you no longer enter this store again."
With all the dignity she could muster Kathryn simply nodder her head.
******************
Kathryn was not in a very good mood when she entered her house. The embarrasment was unbearable! Oh she was gonna get Sebastian alright!
"Ecxuse me Miss Merueil." The family butler said as he walked towards her.
"Master Valmont is waiting in the living room."
Oh was he? Kathryn walked very fast into the living room to see Sebastian slouching downn on the sofa.
"Hey princess have fun shopping?" Sebastain said looking up when he heard Kathryn entering the room.
Kathryn didn't answer and went to close the living room doors. "Well at least I have money, but word is that poor Mr. Valmont is flat broke." Kathryn gloated.
To her fury Sebastian started to laugh. "Maybe I should start stealing? Tell me Kathryn is it lucurative?" Sebastian asked.
"Fuck you!" Kathryn exploded at him.
"Listen my favorite klepto maybe we shoudl call it even." Sebastian asked. Then he leered at Kathryn and added " So we can put all our energy towards something more productive."
Kathryn thought for a minute. It was a tempting thought, but she had to make sure this time he was not gonna see someonelse behind her back. "Tell you what Sebastian as long as you help me destroy someone?"
Sebastian was suprised Kathryn agreed so readily."Who?" he asked warily.
Kathryn smiled and said "Annette." Now this was the test on how serious he was.
Sebastian was conflicted. Sure he enjoyed in the past helping Kathrynn with her schemes, but Annette was differnt. She was someone that he found to be genuinely a good personn. He was sure given enough time her could fall in love with her. Was it worth it just to be with Kathryn?
