Chapter 3
Jeannie's mouth dropped open in an expression of pure shock. Melissa Stone was with her husband. Jemma looked from her daughter to her son-in-law and back again. She had no idea who this woman was or why her daughter looked absolutely broken and her daughters husband looking pale. It didn't take long to put two and two together.
"You...You creep!" Jemma yelled and took her daughter by the arm and lead her out of the office.
Tony finally regained his voice and ran after them, leaving Melissa in the office alone.
"Wait! Jeannie!"
Tony was now running in the parking lot as he finally caught up with his wife, and a very unhappy mother-in-law.
"She has nothing to say to you.....louse!"
Tony chose to ignore Jemma.
"Jeannie, it's not what you think."
"Of course it's not master. It's never what I think." Jeannie said not looking at him.
Tony opened his mouth to say something but she interrupted.
"You're just getting tired of me and someone from your past has very conveniently ended up in your office with you alone! Who better to have an affair with." Jeannie added with a soft voice.
He couldn't say anything for a moment. When he finally found his voice yet again he was a little sharper then he should have been.
"How can you possibly think that I am having an affair with her?!"
He got no response.
"Jeannie, I love you. How can I possibly be getting tired of you? Don't you know how much I love you?"
Jeannie looked into his eyes for the first time since storming out of the office. She saw no deception or lies in his eyes.
"I am sorry Anthony. I love you too, I'm just upset." She said as tears came to her eyes.
"Don't cry Jeannie." Tony said and wrapped his arms around her. "It's okay."
That just made it worse.
Jemma was watching not very far away and decided it would be better if she took her daughter home so she could rest, more emotionally then physically.
"Jeannie, what do you say about going home and resting for a while?"
Jeannie nodded and Tony looked at them wondering why she would have to go home and rest she just got there.
"Yes. I suppose that would be better mamma." She said and turned to Tony. "I love you. I will see you when you get home."
With a blink from her mother the two were gone.
That made Tony remember the trouble Jeannie had earlier with her powers.

Melissa watched from the window as the two made up and it made her furious. She would always go one step forward and two steps back.
Not anymore. She was going to call on an old friend and get Jeannie away from Tony forever.
