Chapter 15 ( The Others.)

***Devin’s POV***

It has been almost two days not since I left her the roses and still nothing, who does she thinks she is anyway. I don’t even know why my father thinks she is so special; she really isn’t anything special just available and convenient.
If it wasn’t for Adam I would have never had anything to do with her in the first place, now I am about to lose everything because of that stupid bitch. I am going to just have to go to her and persuade her to see things my way. I wish she was as easily manipulated as her Mother and Brother.
I need my fathers power connections and my would have been mother in law needs his money, perhaps I should expose them all to punish Laura, I know she doesn’t want to speak with them right now but does she want to hurt them?
I am tied of for this week but I am taking a couple of days off soon and I will be pouring all my efforts into getting her back. Even if I have to use force to do so, being a doctor means I have access to many drugs that could help me get what I want.
It won’t be easy but I could keep her secluded and drugged long enough; after all the money and power has been transferred perhaps Laura will fall ill, it would be such a tragedy.

***Gary Roberts POV***

I must say that I am very disappointed in my son right now, I thought he loved or at least respected Laura enough not to hurt her like he did. I never like Devin and I am happy that things went down the way that they did.
It hurt to know that Laura was hurting; but at least she found out about it before she married the jerk. I had hoped that she would stay away, at least long enough to do some healing before she came back to deal with them.
I had all I could do to keep a straight face, when Devin came storming into our house complaining on how Laura wasn’t listening to reason and that she was acting like a spoiled brat. The only spoiled brat I could see in the room was Devin, Mr. Fancy pants was having a fit because Laura didn’t fall for his bullshit anymore.
Not only that but she has moved on to a new life, I could have told him that, I have known where she is since the beginning. Once all that happened I hired a private detective to track her down. Once he found her location it was a simple thing to follow her to see where she ended up.
It would kill my wife and Devin too if they knew that I have had her address and new phone number. It would also surprise my wife Michelle, if she knew that I have known about her affair since almost the start of it.
Of all the people she could have chosen, she chose the biggest jerk this side of the Mississippi. None other than Devin’s father Martin Thomas, at first it hurt and then I got pissed off. Mostly because my wife thinks I am so stupid. I know about all her gambling debt as well; it was a good thing that I took my name off of all those credit card accounts.
I even took my name off of the ones she got in secret, seriously they send me the statement every month, if she wanted it to be such a secret; then she should of gotten her ass out of bed and got the mail before I left for work.
I have no doubt that she is sleeping with Martin because she thinks she can get some money out of him, just like she wanted to do with Laura. That pissed me off a lot more than her betrayal of me. Her own daughter, truly I didn’t know my wife at all.
It seems though she doesn’t know me all that well either, I wonder when the love stopped and the resentment began wit her. I know that she has always wanted to be living and mixing with the super-rich.
She has never had to work a day in her life, I have given her a big, wonderful home, vacations wherever she wanted to go. Two wonderful kids, any fashion she wanted to try and fancy jewelry, she was never satisfied though, she always wanted bigger and better, if the neighbors had it then she wanted a better version of it.
I never understood that side of her, I had hoped that with time that she would come to see the good fortune that she had. I loved her for a long time, part of me will always love her but now that love has all but gone away.
It is time for a divorce, I didn’t want to but I just can’t trust her anymore. I will make sure that she has the house and alimony, however it will be depending on her giving up gambling. Otherwise, she is going to just get one lump some and we are done, I feel a bit cold about it but I don’t know who she is anymore and she broke my heart with her first affair.
I am not going to take her back after the second one, I am forgiving but I am not blind, nor am I stupid. The papers are all ready to go and I have signed them, if she refuses to sign then we go to court and she risks losing everything.
The last straw is what she is doing to our children, they are grown and can make their own choices but they don’t need a manipulative mother trying to micro manage their lives.
All for money, nothing is more worthless than greed.

***Michelle Roberts POV***

Nothing is going as I planned, my son now hates me because he had to take the blame for Laura finding out what was going on behind closed doors. It was all my idea of course, I managed to make Devin think it was all his idea, I know how manipulative and controlling Devin could be.
I felt bad about what it has done to Adam, I was never close to Laura she was too much a Daddies girl. I wanted a little girl that would let me dress her up and do girl things with but no Laura was a tomboy growing up, getting her into a dress was not an easy task.
Truly I never thought that a daughter of mine would be so disappointing, now she has run off and is refusing to come home. Making a life for herself away from her family, I know I taught her that family is everything.
I thought about finding her and making her come home but I knew that would only make her did her heels in deeper, so I let Devin handle it. My affair with Devin’s father Martin went like clockwork, sleeping with him was easy. Now I have all the blackmail material that I need to gain the money that will allow me the life I deserve.
He won’t be happy to find out that his son is gay, just about as much as he will be happy if his wife learned about his relationship with me. When I found out that most of Martin’s money was in fact his wife’s money, I laughed my ass off.
Tonight we are meeting at his beach house, he will want all the usual things and I may just let him have all the kinky little things he loves. Then I am going to sit him down and tell him just exactly what will be going on from that point forward.
He is going to be beyond rage but there is nothing he can do now; the trap was set and he walked right into it willingly. I even took a secret video or it all, I am sure his wife will love watching her husband screwing me while he is wearing a blue rubber suit, all you can see of him is his head and dick sticking out.
I made sure that my face was never in the camera view, that way Martin can’t use it against me. Not that I would be devastated at losing my husband; still I need my husbands money, and if that footage came up in court I would lose everything.
Why did I sign that prenup agreement? I manage to salvage everything after Gary caught me with my mouth around my best friend’s husband’s dick. This time he isn’t going to be so easily persuaded. Which is why I covered all my bases this time, making sure that no one could trace it back to it being me.
There is one person who could ruin it all for me, Adams real father. That guy was built like a truck, it was my second affair though it was just a one-night stand.
Wish I knew where his father; I think his name was Roy, I don’t really remember that much about him. I am not worried about that idiot though, he has been long gone and had no idea that he had fathered a child that night.
Almost all my pieces are where they should be, now all I have to do is pull it off without anyone seeing it coming. Then I will be the snobby rich lady looking down my nose at everyone else.
