Theresa and Fox took a train out to Massachusetts instead of a plane. Theresa was excited to be starting a new business adventure. She had a plan to make Ethan pay for abandoning his son; and the Hotchkiss estate was the perfect opportunity for her. When they were finally in Massachusetts it took them another 2hours to get to Harmony. Theresa hadn't been back in almost ten years. The town was still small except it looked more alive. She went stopped at Whitney's old house and knocked on the door. The owner opened the door but to the astonishment of Theresa it was neither of the Russells.
"Yes can I help you?" The women said.
"Um... I'm looking for Dr. Russell?" Theresa asked.
"I'm sorry she doesn't live here anymore." The woman said.
"Does she still live in town?" Theresa asked.
"No, I'm sorry. Dr. Russell only comes out to harmony once a month now." The woman said to her.
"How Come?" Theresa asked shocked.
"She lives up in Boston with her husband and in her two new little girls. She does fill ins for the hospital instead." The woman said to her.
"Oh okay." Theresa said to her.
"Miss, my name is Samantha Jerkins and I am the head doctor at the hospital. Is there something that you need." Ms. Jerkins asked her.
" I just wanted to say hi she was my best friend's mother that's all. My name is Theresa." Theresa said to the women.
"Wait. Are you Theresa-Lopez-Fitzgerald?" Dr. Jerkins asked her.
"Yes I am. Do I know you?" Theresa asked.
"No but I keep receiving a letter for you. I got one three years ago and another followed about a year ago. Here you go." Dr. Jerkins said.
Theresa took the letter from Dr. Jerkins and looked at the handwritting. She automatically knew who the handwritting belonged to; it was Ethan's.
"Theresa the limo is here are you ready to head over to the Crain estate?" Fox asked her.
"Yeah I'm ready." Theresa said half there.
"What's that?" Fox asked Theresa.
"I don't know hear read it out loud when we get into the limo." Theresa said to him.
"Okay fine whatever." Fox said letting Theresa get in first.
Dear Theresa,
I know that it has been awhile since we last saw each other; I guess it's more like ten years. I wanted to say that I am sorry for that. Theresa I haven't tried to contact you because I am afraid that you will try to claw your way back into my life like you had once did. Gwen and I are very happy together and we want to keep it that way. We now have four girls together and they are very lovely. I know that I haven't paid you any child support but Gwen and I agree that it was very and still is very unecessary for me to do that. I understand that we share a son but I have four other kids to think about. I hope everthing is going good for you in Harmony. I hope to talk to you one day.
Sincerly,
Ethan Winthroped.
"Wow he wasted no time in blaming you for everything. Four girls, man they sure didn't waste anytime. Don't you think Theresa?" Fox asked joking about the letter.
"I know." Theresa said in an upset voice.
"Theresa I think that you are converting back to your old ways. Theresa you can't cry over Ethan your whole life." Fox said to her.
"I know but I can't stop thinking about my son Ethan. When I was struggling and needing money and support, Ethan ditched his own son without a care in the world. Now I hear from him for the first time in a long time and what is his logical answer Gwen and I agree that I think it's unnessary because I have four childeren. I couldn't bring Ethan with me when I went away for college because I couldn't afford it. That was four years I spent away from my son; I didn't go ditch him because I wanted to; I left because I had to. Even while I was gone I still sent money to Ethan and my mom." Theresa started to yell at Fox while tears came pouring down her face.
"Theresa I know that this letter has made you upset but you have to move on or else the past is always going to drag you down." Fox said to her.
"I know but if all goes right with this new business quest I might just become the richess person in all of New England." Theresa said.
"I already think you're richer than the Crains are." Fox said to a pleased Theresa.
"What do you mean I'm richer than the Crains." Theresa said to him.
"Well, Julian and Alister made some bad investment deals and it looks like Crain Industries took a huge dive. Since Alister gave Sheridan her inheritance and told her to get out, they don't have her money to survive. I got the house for 56million instead of 200million it's orginal price." Fox explained to her.
"You paid only 56million for the Crain estate. What did they say when they found out that I had bought it?" Theresa asked him.
"They don't know that any of us had anything to do with the purchase." Fox said to her.
"Good then let's celebrate by having a party. No instead of a party let's have a ball to commemerate the purchase. Call up the cater and a party planner and tell them that we need arrangements as soon as possible for the ball.
"Estella did you cancel the movers?" Julian Crain asked his maid.
"Yes I did. What are we going to do with the stuff." Estelle asked her tired out boss.
"Give it to the owners." Julianne said.
"Will they take it?" Estelle asked him.
"Of course they will take it. These are Crain heirlooms. They are part of the deal we made with the buyer." Julian said to her.
The door bell rang and Estella opened the door. Julian thought that it would be the new owners but it was actually Sophia Harmony's party decorator and organizer.
"Sophia what are you doing here?" Julianne asked her.
"The new owners of your house called me and told me that they needed me to come down here and organize a ball that is going to take place tonight." Sophia said to him.
"Oh well, go right on ahead with whatever you're going to do." Julian said to her.
The door rang again and Julian thought that it would be the owners but instead it was the cater and then an architect followed the cater. The owners finally arrived in a black limo. Fox and Theresa got out of the car and knocked on the door.
"Welcome." Estella said.
"I'm so glad to finally be meeting you I'm..." Julian looked up mortified at the two people who were standing there smirking at him.
"Go on finish up you are who again?" Theresa said to him.
"What the hell are you doing here?" Julian asked her in an angry voice.
"I'm here to look at my new house." Theresa said to him.
"You could never afford this house. You're too poor to be able to buy this house." Julian said to her.
"Actually you're too poor to own this house and I'm too rich for this house and you Julian." Theresa said to him.
"How could you be richer than me? You disappeared with your family years ago. No, you'll never be rich ever." Julian yelled at her.
"That's what happens when you move to NY, become governor, and open up a very successful fashion store. Now move your stuff out and get out Julian. I need to go over my plans for the house and I have no time for you." Theresa said to him.
"I can't move my stuff it's for the real owner of this house." Julian said.
"Fox call movers in and get rid of this stuff. Maybe there's some time of homeless shelter that wouldn't mind having half of this junk." Theresa said.
"If you touch any of this stuff I'll call the cops and have you arrested for theft." Julian started to yell at her.
"Fox will you please show him the title to this house and then make him go away he's really starting to give me a headache." Theresa said to Fox.
Fox was only the more happy to oblige his bosses orders and pulled out the title to the mansion. Julian stared at it with fear and horror finally being expressed on his face. He looked at Theresa who gave him a huge smile then turned back to the architect.
"Ronald I want you to start outside in the back of the house. Figure out how much more wider we are going to have to make this house. As soon as you get the figures I want to start right away." Theresa said to Ronald.
"Figures for what? This house is a classic. Anyone would be proud to live in the condition that it is in right now. What are you going to do to it?" Julian asked her.
"First of all it's crappy and second of all no one's going to live in it. Many people are going to stay in it." Theresa said to him.
"What do you mean stay in it?" Julian asked afraid of the answer he was going to recieve.
"It's my new business adventure. I'm creating hotels out of mansions that used to belong to powerful worthless families. There's going to be a ball tonight here. I'm going to reveal my intentions tonight. I have to get figures so I know how much to tear down." Theresa said to him.
"This place is not made for normal people to stay in it. This place was made for rich people." Julian said snidely at her.
"It used to be for rich people it's not anymore. Now if you'll excuse me I have work to do." Theresa said to him.
"I can't believe that you're going to tear down this beautiful estate." Julian said to her.
"Believe it. Fox show Julian out and then bring me the floor plans I have some serious work to do." Theresa said to him.
When Julian was finally forced out of his old home, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed his father's house.
"Julian what is it. I have no time for your stupid games." Alister said retortly over the phone.
"Father I just met the new owners." Julian said to him.
"And," Alister said back to him.
"And you're not going to like what I have to say." Julian said to him.
"Just say it you moron." Alister yelled over the phone.
"The new owner is Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald and she's turning the old Crain mansion into a hotel." Julian said.
"WHAT? No this won't happen I wont let it happen." Alister said.
"It will happen; and you don't have a choice Alister." Theresa said over the phone when she grabbed it from Julian.
"Yes can I help you?" The women said.
"Um... I'm looking for Dr. Russell?" Theresa asked.
"I'm sorry she doesn't live here anymore." The woman said.
"Does she still live in town?" Theresa asked.
"No, I'm sorry. Dr. Russell only comes out to harmony once a month now." The woman said to her.
