Chapter 21 (part 1)
At the judge's office Darius, Anna and Tommy were there to sign for the
name for Tommy.
Judge:I have to say that I was surprised when Mr Darius told me
Anna:I understand but I did what my Husband would have done if god gave him some more time to live
Judge:even if the reason is that I have to say that it's a Nobel gesture you're doing that not anyone will do
Darius:ok then we can sign the papers
Judge:yes, of course........here Mrs Anna first your signature........Mr Darius it's your turn now..........Mr Tommy now sign with your usual name and then with the new one.............now that the document is sign this is your official document that you're Mr Stuart's Dutois son
At the beach house Jude was talking with her friend.
Friend:you're going to get married?....and with whom tell me
Jude:with Tommy.......Tommy Dutois
Friend:Dutois?........who is he a relative of Chris?
Jude:ah yeah....actually his brother from his dad
Friend:I never thought that Mr Stuart was married before........I'm happy for you Jude...now tell me you met him at the mansion?
Jude:yes
Friend:but he most has come after I left or was he there at Sadie's marriage?
Jude:no......no he came after but you already know him......he's Tommy...Chris was surprised too because he did know that he was his brother but My Aunty Anna knew about him
Friend:but Jude he's just a supervisor
Jude:he did that job just because my Aunty didn't said about him to Chris but he's in good economical position
Friend:what a nice news I can't believe it......you're lucky Jude you found a good husband
Tommy and Darius were now at Darius office near the beach.
Tommy:till the last second I thought that Mrs Anna was going to change her mind
Tommy:yes, even me
Darius:but luckily enough it wasn't like that...and now you're Tommy Dutois you waited so much to have your real name and you got it......of course here we will hear a lot of voices about this but after a bit it will pass............so now what are you going to do?
Tommy:I was thinking about buying a piece of land and then I don't know maybe do some commerce
Darius:you're going to continue with contraband?
Tommy:no, honest commerce
Darius:ah I was getting worried
Tommy:but first of all I want to buy a house.....is there a better one that the one you told me about?
Darius:I'm afraid not....that's the only available right now...but I think yours is very nice
Tommy:yes, but I don't think it's the right house for a girl of high class.....the one I'm going to marry
Darius:I'm happy you got this subject out Tommy ............I know there are lot of people that get married even if they're not in love and for other things but the motives that are making you marry her are stupid in my opinion.....the step you're taking can be dangerous for bought of you
Tommy:she had the possibility to get out of this marriage but she always insisted to get married
Darius:she insisted because she's too young and unconscious where this is going to take her
Tommy: she's ready to do everything and sacrifice everything so that...that she keeps protected her lover boy Chris
Darius:ah so you know......and you're ready to marry a girl who's in love with someone else?
Tommy:what else can I do?......what do you want me to tell her?...oh yeah I know you're going to marry me just so you keep me and your sister from become lovers again
Darius:no, I'm not saying this but at least you can go back and not marry her
Tommy:I will hurt her......and I already gave her my word...I'm not going to humiliate her like my...my brother did
Darius:don't come out with this shit...I know you enough that I know that you can do this and even worst
Tommy:then Darius tell me why do you think I want to marry Jude?
Darius:to take revenge of Sadie that's why
Tommy:no, not only for that......I have to go now
Darius:Tommy please wait....if Jude doesn't want to hear reasons but you're more mature then her.....she doesn't even know what marriage means...she doesn't know what it is life between a man and a woman and if between you two there is no love or even some feelings or a physical attraction for her it can be very difficult Tommy
Tommy:you think I don't have enough experience with women?
Darius:don't be rude now
Tommy:it's out of sense to continue this argument.....she wants to use me and I will let her the motive why she's doing this it doesn't matter...and now if you'll excuse me I have many things to do....................(he was about to leave but then he turned back).............I wanted to thank you again......for everything you did for me during all these years....see you
At the Harrison's house on the beach Victoria and Jude were talking in
the living room.
Victoria:you already told the news to your friend?
Jude:yes, she was a little surprised
Victoria:you didn't tell her that he's Tommy Quincy right?
Jude:no, but she will find out
Victoria:oh my god...Jude sweetie don't you think it's better if you don't..
Jude:no, mother I already made my decision.....Therese (her friend) told me that she saw Aunty Anna with Mr Darius
Victoria:yes, they were going to the judge to sign the documents were Tommy will be Dutois...do you think you sister was there too?
Jude:I wish not
At the Dutois mansion in the living room Jamie and Chris were talking.
Jamie:why did you go at the judge?
Chris:my presence wasn't necessary
Jamie:but you're not happy with this situation.........the first time you talked to me about Tommy you were full of admiration and happy....why did you changed your mind?
Chris:at first I was influenced with the memory of Tommy of when we were kids and when I saw him as an adult I was even more impressed of his personality...but then when he came working here and I had time to know him better....I didn't like his ways...and then with all that happened with Jude
Jamie:to tell you the truth this whole marriage between Tommy and Jude is a little bit out....she's not the type of girl that can be attractive by a guy like Tommy....she was going to marry you after all
Chris:but you were the one that told me that there are girl that can...
Jamie:yes, but they are different girl....superficial girls nothing in common with Jude
Chris:even if I don't like it ...it happened and we are both guilty
Jamie:ah...the only think I can't forgive you is that you told me to marry her.....it's not a correct thing to do with a friend
Chris:anyway I'm sure that between them there was nothing that dishonoured her
Jamie:and even if there was?......if instead of Jude there was Sadie I don't think you would have married her
Chris:Jamie I'm sorry again
Jamie:fine don't worry after all I will find a way to get my revenge
Chris:I'm going to see how my wife is
Jamie:oh yeah I didn't saw her since yesterday.....is she feeling sick?
Chris:she has a bad headache... the thing is that even Sadie took this very bad of how Jude acted
Chris left and went in Sadie's and his room.
Chris:how are you feeling?
Sadie:bad
Chris:why are you crying?
Sadie:I feel so ashamed of what Jude is doing and I'm very worried for my mother...she must be so worried...can you think what people are going to say about this marriage?.....let me go to her Chris
Chris:on the beach?
Sadie:yes, at least she will be better to see me there and then with this marriage coming up she will need help
Chris:I can't get away from the mansion right now and I don't know if my mother can go with you there
Sadie:no, no we don't have to disturb her...I can stay at my mother's house so I can help her with the preparing of thing for the ceremony...because I imagine that the date of their marriage must be already decided...I wish to stay near her she's my mother Chris........let me be with her at this time so difficult with her
Chris:fine go if you want
Sadie:thanks dear.......god don't let my sister marry Tommy
At the Harrison's house Jude was reading in the living room when there
was a knock at the door. Jude went to open the door and there was
Tommy.
Tommy:hi
Jude:good evening
Tommy:can I come in?
Jude:ah see...ah my mother is taking a nap right now
Without leaving her saying another word Tommy got inside towards
the living room.
Tommy:I didn't came here to see her
Jude:but it's inappropriate for us to stay here alone
Tommy:it's not the first time that it happened
Jude:yeah but we weren't engaged yet
Tommy:and don't you think it's stupid?....I will not un respect you don't have worry.......I just want that we make some things clear that's all
Jude:ok......you want to sit down?
Tommy:thanks.......first of all tell me how you are
Jude:good thanks and you?
Tommy:good....this morning I went to the judge with Mr Darius and Mrs Anna
Jude:and now everything is ok?
Tommy:yes, I have my father's name
Jude:I'm happy for you
Tommy:and that mean that there is nothing that stops our wedding....of course if you didn't change your mind
Jude:no
Tommy:good...when are we going to church to public our wedding?
Jude:when you want Tommy
Tommy:tomorrow?
Jude:for me it's fine
Tommy:I can come to pick you up at about 10.............tell me who are going to be your witnesses?
Jude:my mother for sure..Maybe the other can be Mr Darius
Tommy:and your relatives?....Chris...your sister?
Jude:I don't know...I don't think so
Tommy:do you want to invite them?
Jude:yeah but..
Tommy:but you think that they will not come...........you came running to me all around the mansion so that I will not tell anything to Chris you weren't so lost of words like in this moment
Jude:because I had important things to tell you but now..
Tommy:now what?..........for you our marriage is less important than Chris's happiness right?..........I want you to talk to me Jude...I want that you confine in me.....I want to get to know the real you..I want to know what you like, what you don't...what you think of me, what you expect from me
Jude:I expect that.........that you will be a good husband
Tommy:what is a good husband for you?............be sincere please..try to think about our future together
Jude:I..I want that you don't get your voice loud when you talk to me......that you'll be educate...that respects me and be honest
Tommy:this description can be good for a father or for a brother but between a husband and a wife there must be a little bit of love....but of course this doesn't exist between us...but at least a little bit of intimacy........you haven't thought about this?
Jude:yes
Tommy:and?
