Chapter 26
Revenge
A/N: I had time so I wrote 2 chaps today…This chap is a lot better than the last….the last 2 chaps. should be up tomorrow or one tomorrow and one Tuesday. Depends how much time I have and how I fell and with school starting I might not have that much time.
"Oh My God, has Theresa told him yet ?", Whitney gasped.
"No, but I'm sure he'll be thrilled.", Kathelina replied.
"Yeah, I remember how when Theresa had to abort how painful it was for both her and Fox.", Whitney replied.
"Yeah, but now nothing and no one will ever come between them.", Kathelina vowed.
"That's what you think.", Ethan mumbled to himself he'd been standing there listening to the whole conversation.
"Yeah, well I know for sure that Dyl, won't he seems to interested in you, but Ethan I fell will never give up, until Theresa is his.", Whitney replied.
"Whit, you couldn't have been more right.", Ethan mumbled.
"Well, from the way I see it Ethan can't do nothing to them. Theresa pregnant with Fox's child and there as close as ever.", Kathelina replied.
"Yeah, Ethan didn't pull them apart in fact he pulled them closer.", Whitney agreed.
"Not, for long, once I'm done they'll be no Fox and no baby.", Ethan mumbled to himself.
"Ethan…", a voice hissed.
Ethan turned around to face the man he'd called his father most of his life.
"Why are you eavesdropping on Katherine and Whitney ?", Julian asked.
"I wasn't I was walking by and…", Ethan began.
"No, you wasn't, I've been standing here awhile…", Julian began.
"How much have you heard ?", Ethan asked.
"Everything.", Julian replied. "Ethan, you're in over your head. You need to forget Theresa and move on.", Julian advised.
"I can't I love her.", Ethan replied.
"And she loves Fox.", Julian replied.
"Not for long.", Ethan replied.
"What are you talking about ? Ethan, you're starting to sound like Ivy, and if there one thing you should know is every time she schemes to get what she wants it blows up right in her face making things worse than they originally were.", Julian advised.
"I know, but I'm not mother, I know what I'm doing and exactly how to get it.", with that Ethan left.

"You're what ?", Fox asked surprised.
"Pregnant, I fought out last night.", Theresa replied rapping her arms around Fox.
"When's you're first appointment ?", Fox asked.
"Thursday.", Theresa replied.
"Good, I'm coming with you.", he replied.
"Good, I knew you would."
"So, who all knew and keep it from me ?"
"Kathelina, was the only one she was over when I did the test and of course she was so happy and busting with the urge to tell you, but I made her promise not to, because I wanted you to be the first person I told.", Theresa replied.
"You didn't even tell Whit ?"
"No, shocking I know, but like I said I wanted my husband to know before anyone else..
Ring
"News get around fast.", Fox commented.
"I'm sure Kathelina's told everyone from here to New Zealand by now.", Theresa replied.
"Hello", Theresa said picking up the receiver.
"Hello, congratulations.", Whitney replied.
"Thanks, Whit.", Theresa. "Told ya.", Theresa said to Fox.
"So, I take it Kat, told you ?", Theresa asked knowing already that she had.
"Yeah. You know, it hurts that you told her before you did me.", Whitney teased.
"No, I didn't actually tell her, she fought the test in the bathroom. Whit, I swear I planned on telling you, it's just I wanted to keep things hush till I told Fox.", Theresa explained.
"And you actually expected, it to remain quite with Katherine "Motor mouth" Crane knowing ?", Whitney replied.
"Yeah, so who all knows besides you ?", Theresa asked.
"Gwen, Rebecca, Ivy, I think….Dylan, cause he mentioned it to me after you all left.", Whitney replied.
"So, mama doesn't know ?", Theresa questioned.
"I don't know, she didn't mention it to me.", Whitney replied.
"Ok, so the only people I still have to tell is momma, Luis, Antonio, Miguel…", Theresa began.
"No, she told Miguel and I think Antonio, too.", Whitney corrected.
"Ok.", Theresa replied.
"So, that leaves, Luis, Mama and Julian.", Theresa replied.
"And Rachel, Fox's sister.", Whitney added. "So, I'll let you go spread the happy news.", Whitney replied hung up.
"I'm going to go.", Fox replied.
"Where ?", Theresa asked.
"Tell pops and mother.", Fox replied.
"Ok, do you want me to call Rachel, while you're gone or just wait till you get back ?", Theresa asked.
"Wait, ok. Rachel, and you don't know each other that well.", Fox replied.
"True, so I'll call mama and Luis and leave to you to cal Rachel.", she replied.
"Ok, I'll be back as soon as I can.", Fox replied giving her a peck on the head.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Fox, congratulations.", Gwen greeted.
"Thanks, Gwen. Is Julian and Becky around ?", Fox asked.
"Mother's in the study but, I'm not sure about Julian…where is Theresa ?", Gwen asked.
"Home.", Fox replied.
"Ok, I'll stop by the cottage on my way out.", Gwen replied.
"Way out ? Haven't you already seen Becky ?"
"Yeah, but I need to talk to Ethan about Josh."
"Are things better, between you and he ?"
"No, Ethan still hates me, but the feelings are mutual. How could he try to make me look like an un- fit parent.", Gwen huffed. "He's the one who hasn't did nothing to help me with Josh."
"Well, well if it isn't the once who ruined my life conspiring against me ?", Ethan greeted.
"I don't have time for this, Gwen I'll see you around…", Fox began.
"Oh, but what I have to say you really need to hear .", Ethan replied.
Fox gave Ethan a question look.
"And what would that be ?", Fox asked.
"Theresa kissed me, tonight.", Ethan replied.
"You mean you kissed her.", Kathelina interrupted. "Ethan, get it through your head Theresa doesn't love you. God how much stupider could you get ?". Kathelina ranted.
"This doesn't concern you.", Ethan replied.
"Yeah, it does I'm tired of this, 'Holier Than Thou Act'. You lost Theresa because of you're 'I got to be sanctified act', face it you lost Theresa not, because of Fox or Gwen. You left her because of your morals. Tell the truth, do the right thing. Just as you did with Gwen, you married because you knocked her up, right. Don't try to deign it."
"What do you know ? You weren't here when Theresa and I were together, you didn't witness our love.", Ethan defended.
"Maybe so, but what I have scene is how much Theresa and Fox love each other. How's that saying go 'What's done is done and can never be un-done.' In other wards what mistakes you made you have to come to terms with.", Kathelina advised. "Let her go, don't try to break her and Nick up.", with that Kathelina left.
"I'm not, I was just point out how un-faithful his wifey is.", Ethan smirked.
"Theresa isn't un-faithful, you have did everything in your power to keep us apart but, no more, Ethan. She doesn't trust you and I sure as hell don't.", Fox replied.
"Well apparently she doesn't trust you, or maybe it's the fact that you're dogging her into getting pregnant.", Ethan replied.
"What, are you talking about ?", Gwen asked.
"Oh, I take it none of you don't know…", Ethan began.
"None of us know what ?", Fox asked.
"How Theresa almost died when she gave birth to Little Ethan, she has a rare medical condition.", Ethan replied.
"You're lying.", Fox replied. "You'd say anything wouldn't you ?"
"If you don't believe me, ask her.", Ethan replied.
"I will.", Fox replied.
"Be my guest, I have no reason to lie.", Ethan replied.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hey, honey, what's wrong.", Theresa asked noticing the worried expression oh his face.
"Resa, I need to ask you something…", Fox began.
"Ok, what ?", Theresa replied.
"Did you almost die when you had Little E ?", he asked.
"Fox, who told you that ?", she asked.
"It doesn't matter, did or didn't you ?", he asked.
"Yeah, but…"
"Why didn't you tell me.",Fox demanded.
"Fox, It's not important.",Theresa replied.
"Not, important are you crazy, you could die.",Fox said how could she not tell him of her condition.
"Fox, Doctor Russell will be there when I go in labor she won't let anything happen to me or the baby.",Theresa began.
"Resa, don't you see if you die it'll be on my hands. I've pressured you about starting a family for so long.",he began.
"But, everything is going to be fine.",Theresa began.
"No it's not, don't you see nothing ever goes right in my life. Now ,I've poisoned you the only thing I have left.",he began.
"I'm not going to die and nothing is going to happen to us.",Theresa began.
"I know better haven't you noticed something nothing good comes out of me everything I touch I poison ,I'm poison.",he began.
"I'd been better off never marring you at least you'd be safe.",he began.
"Why? Oh, I get you're having an affair.",Theresa exclaimed.
"What??",he asked.
"Who is it?",Theresa asked.
"No one, but while were on the subject what's going on with you and Ethan these days I know you kissed him tonight at night of Charity and Miguel's Engagement Party.",Fox began.
"He kissed me he even try to get me to divorce you and marry him",Theresa explained.
"Why, didn't you then you wouldn't have to settle for the spar.",he exclaimed.
"Who says I won't",Theresa said. She didn't know why she'd even said it.
"Well it's nice to know how you fell Theresa.",Fox replied with that he walked out slamming the door so hard it shook the wall.
'Theresa he'd never called her that he'd all ways called her Resa.'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Darus, I mean it, I want Fox dead.", Ethan ordered.
"How ?", Darus replied. "He's a Crane and the last thing I need or want is to get on Alistair's bad side."
"Don't worry about Alistair, he'll probably be happy, Fox isn't his favorite person." Ethan replied.
"I don't know, Ethan. The police can find out these types of things.", Dares reasoned.
"Damn it Darus, just do it, cut his breaks. Knowing Fox, he's going to fell betrayed and want to clear his mind little will he know he'll be ending his life.", Ethan said more to himself.
"Yes, sir .", Darus replied.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"How could she say that, damn it. Well at least I finally know the truth. I've given up everything for her. Whitney, My Freedom, My Best Friend, My Whole Life.", Fox muttered to himself. "I don't need her, I never need no one."
He grabbed the glass felling it over the rim with vodka.
"Hey, Fox, so was I right ?", Ethan asked.
"Get out, Ethan.", Fox demanded.
"From the looks of it you and Theresa had a huge fight.", Ethan taunted.
"Get out, now damn it. You got what you wanted. Theresa loves you, not me.", Fox replied.
"Yeah, that's what I've been telling you for years. Now, that the secrets out I'll tell you a little secret…", Ethan began. "That's probably my baby she's caring.", Ethan lied. 'Oh hell what will it hurt he'll be dead just a soon as he gets in that car.'
"What ?", Fox yelled.
"She and me have been having an affair…she comes over every night about 2 and we have…", Ethan began.
"Fuck You.", Fox exclaimed.
"No, that's what your wife's been doing.", Ethan replied smugly.
"Shut up, you selfish bastard.", Fox said grabbing him by the shirt collar and punching him in the face.
"The truth hurts doesn't it ?", Ethan asked getting up off the floor. "Why don't you just leave ? Get in your car and drive to the airport and catch the first plan out of here to where ever you want."
