Gwen

"I can't believe Ethan just did that, after all that I went through after all that I did, it means nothing to him I have sacrificed so much during the years, for what to end up second to that whore, god the name Theresa just infuriates me! I hate her I hate her so much, why God why have you treated me like this what have I done to deserved this. You know just for that I will not give Ethan the divorce I wonder how he will like the tables turned on him" Laughed Gwen

She had this evil looked to her, something just didn't sit right, she was up to something and it was no good.

There was a knock at the door, which interrupted Gwen's thoughts

"Mrs. Winthrop, there is someone here to see you!"

"Tell them to go away!"

"He says it urgent!"

"Fine! Send him in"

The nurse left to fetch Gwen's visitor, a knock at the door, Gwen turned her head to face her visitor!

"YOU, what the hell are you doing here?"

Fox

Wandering around town trying to figure out how to get Theresa back, how was he going to reveal what he already knew without any evidence.  Not looking where he was going he ran into the most unexpected person in the world.

"Bruce Masterson!" snickered Fox "What the hell are you doing in Harmony?"

"Nicholas Crane, Right"

"Yea, but everyone calls me Fox"

"Yea, your Julian and Ivy Crane son" laughed Bruce "How is the old goat, still married to that sexy young Senorita?"

"Yea, but not for long!"

"Why do you say that, if I may ask?"

"Well it's really none of your business but she just found out that her son is not from the sordid rendezvous in Bermuda like she thought but from the last night she shared with Ethan!" Fox spat

"You sound bitter, do I detect that you have also fallen for this Theresa girl?"

"That sir is none of your business!" sneered Fox "And you haven't answered my question, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN HARMONY?"

"Well actually I came here to see Theresa, seems I have some information concerning her, Do you know where I might be able to locate her!"

"What kind of Information would that be?"

"That would be between me and Theresa!"

"Look!"  as Fox grabbed Bruce's shirt and slammed him into the tree "You are going to tell what kind of information you have, and you are going to tell me right now!"

"O.k. O.k.!"

Ethan

He was the happiest guy in Harmony, he was going to reconcile his relationship with Theresa, Gwen was getting the Divorce papers served to her, nothing could ruin his day.  He went in search for Eve she had told him that she would watch him while he sorted his differences with his brother FOX, god how he despised him, how dare he take advantage of a beautiful women like Theresa, but then and there Ethan notice that he had done the same thing to Theresa then it hit him like a ton of bricks he was just like Fox, though he rather not admit it he was just like him, stringing Theresa along all this time while trying to make his decision, then going back to Gwen when he had realized what he had done.  He vowed that he would never hurt her again. Nor would he let anything come in-between them ever again.

"Hey Eve, where the little guy at?"

"Over there asleep!" as she pointed to the couch

"Thanks Eve for watching him, while I took care of my little problem!"

"Hey anytime, I love to spend time with him!" exclaimed Eve "Ethan if you don't mind me asking?"

"Yes!"

"I understand that you are happy that little Ethan is your son, but what are you going to tell Gwen?"

"It's been done, I told her that I love Theresa and that Little Ethan is my son and I am having the lawyers serve her with divorce papers as we speak!"

"Ethan NO!"

"Why not Eve!"

"She is at a critical stage right now, that was not the right thing to do Ethan, oh god the repercussions from this is going to be severe!"

"It's o.k. Eve she took it rather well!"

"Are you sure Ethan?"

"Yes, well I have to get this little guy home!"

"O.k. Ethan, please take care of yourself!"

Ethan left the hospital, and put little Ethan in his car seat and drove to a Real Estate company.

"Hello Sir, Can we help you……….?"

"Yes there is a house that I want to buy!"

"Your Ethan Crane!"

"No that's Winthrop!"

"O.k. I remember now, O.k. Which house?"

"It's the white one on the beach, the Victorian style one"

"Yes that one, do you want to go look at it?"

"No, I will buy it!"

"Let's get the paper work started then!"

After hours at the Real Estate company Ethan managed to pull the house for 380,000 with a 120,000 dollar down payment.  That was the money that his Grandfather on his mother side had left him.  He was more than happy to spend it on Theresa she did of course give him her life savings and he wanted to do the same thing for her.  He wanted to get her out of that mad house as fast as he could possibly can.  He didn't want his son or Theresa living in that hell hole anymore.  He walked out the Real Estate feeling like the King of the World.  He raced back to the Crane Mansion to tell Theresa the good news.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Theresa

She couldn't believe that Fox would say something like that to her, how could he.  She thought that he was a better person than that I guess she wrong about him all along.  She couldn't believe that she let Fox get to her like that. No matter she got what she wanted and that was Ethan all she needed to do now was call Harper and get the divorce papers to Julian so he can sign them and she could get the hell on with her life.  But what would Alister say he was determine the other night not to let her leave.  She had to come up with a plan.  How was she going to leave.  She didn't notice where she was going and she walked smacked into something hard

"I am sorry"

"Well I am not!"

"What" as she looked up her eyes bulged open was her eyes playing tricks on her was this person really in front of her

"Noah!" as she flung her arms around him "Is that really you?"

"Yea it me. In the Flesh!"

"What are you doing here?"

"Well I heard the problems that my parents are going through and I wanted to come back and help, plus I have a special friend that lives here that is going through some problems and she needed me back in her life, apparently some man trouble!"

"What friend?"

"I rather not say her name right now!"

"Oh o.k."

"So Mrs. Crane, what have you been up to?"

"Oh nothing much you know same ole same ole!"

"Same ole nothing, you are a part of the riches family in the world, and you say same ole same ole, come on now I haven't seen you in years give up the dirt Resa!"

"Noah being in the riches family in the world isn't all that it is cracked up to be it's just a façade, don't let it tempt you!"

"Well look let's get together tomorrow we can catch up over a cup of coffee I have to see my friend then I am heading to see my parents o.k.!"

"O.k. Noah, don't flake out on me tomorrow?"

"I won't. I'll call you!" yelled Noah as he ran off "See you later Theresa!"

"Jeez he was in a hurry I wonder who his special friend is?" thought Theresa

Theresa couldn't wait to get home, she got in her car and drove to the mansion, she parked her car and walked into the foyer.  Harper and Julian were in the living room waiting for her.

"Thank you Harper for coming on short notice"

"No problem Theresa I drew the papers you ask!" said Harper as he handed her the divorce papers.  "Julian had no arguments about your terms!" as Harper turned to Julian "Right Julian"

"Yea, let's get this over with I have a appointment with a certain maid, if you don't mind!"

At that moment the phone rang, Julian dove for it and put it on speaker "Father I was hoping that you would call!"

"Can it Julian, I didn't call for you, I called for Theresa!"

"Now Theresa dear is there anyway I can get you to reconsider this?"

"Father I am finally getting rid of her, why in the world would you want her around?"

"Because apparently she knows how to run a business better than you can, you're an imbecile Julian to say the least, now go pour yourself a glass of Brandy and shut that trap you call a mouth!"

Theresa and Harper never in a million years hear Alister say the things that he had just said it was quite shocking to both of them.

"Alister as much as I love the Mansion, I will not allow myself to live here with your filthy son any more!"

"Fine, then let me offer you this, you can divorce Julian and leave the mansion if you wish but stay at Crane Industries as the Vice President!"

"Are you serious?"

"Yes I am, so what do you say?"

"Of course!"

"You see I am not all that heartless now am I!"

"Thank you Alister!"

"So I will see you first thing tomorrow morning?"

"Yes, bright and early"

Theresa was ecstatic, that things were going her way, though she was a little disappointed about what happen between her and Fox but it was no use crying over spilled milk. Theresa signed the papers and she was finally freed from Julian after many months with him she was finally rid of that rat.  She ran upstairs to pack not thinking she was wondering where she and little Ethan were going to live no matter she can move back in with her mother until she found a suitable place to live.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ethan

Ecstatic at what he had accomplished, he parked his car and got Little Ethan out he open the door and notice that Harper and Julian were in the living room.

"Looks like your mistress is Free now!"  Ethan heard Julian bellowed

"Thank god!" thought Ethan now it was his turn all Gwen had to do was sign the divorce paper and then Ethan and Theresa could be free to marry each other like they were suppose to. Ethan ran up to Theresa's room and busted open the door he couldn't contain himself anymore. He brought out a blindfold.

"Theresa I just heard!"

"Yea isn't it great I freed from Julian"

"Yea it is great, remember I told you I had a surprise for you come on!"

"Where are we going Ethan?"

"Come on it's a surprise!" squealed Ethan

"Baby, what is your father up to?"  Little Ethan just looked up and laughed at his mother "Oh your not going to tell me either!"

Ethan walked Theresa downstairs and blindfolded her in the Car and drove to their new home

"Ethan where are we?"

"Wait Theresa let me help you out"  Ethan went around to the Theresa side of the car and let her out "O.k. are you ready for your surprise now?"

"Yes Ethan the suspense is killing me!"

Ethan slowly removed the blindfold, it took Theresa a minute to get her eyes into focus when she finally did she screamed "Ethan what did you do?"

"I bought us a house, for you, me and Little Ethan!" laughed Ethan "You hate it don't you?"

"No I love it, it's so beautiful!"

"It need some work, that's why I bought it would be fun for us to rebuild this together!"

"I love it Ethan!" she looked up at him and leaned in for a kiss "I love you"

"I love you too!"

"Come on, let me show you the inside!"

Theresa went to pick little Ethan up from his car seat and they both went inside the house was indeed beautiful it had a spacious foyer to the left was the living and to the right were pillars that led into the dining they walked down the hall and there was a room that was a library and a small bathroom under the stairs as they walk on to the left was the T.V/ Family room a little kitchen/ Sitting around to the right was a spacious Kitchen with a large metal refrigerator and a center cooking nook/ Stove area the tiles were made of marble and there were hardwood floors in the whole house.  Out the sliding door was a view that would make the god envious.  It over looked the beach.  Upstairs had a huge master bedroom with it's own sitting area and the bathroom had a huge spa like tub that could fit at least 10 people and a separate shower, also there was a French tub the kind with the feet.  The master bedroom also had a huge walk in closet enough to fit all of Theresa clothes. There was 5 other extra bedrooms.  Theresa and Ethan walked downstairs.

"This house is beautiful Ethan!"

"Noticed all the bedrooms!"

"Yes!"

"Well I want to fill all those rooms with KIDS!"

"Are you serious!"

"Yes as serious as I'll ever be!"

"God Ethan I love you!" as she flung her arms around him

They both didn't notice the stranger that had walked in on them
