Chapter 4
Brats
I was pissed. The last thing I expected was Sasha and Mary to get into a fight while I was away.
A little background, I had been in Israel in a consulting capacity for a few weeks and had arrived back on a late night flight. They were several messages on my phone.
The first was from Mary," Sasha and I had a fight, call me to discuss."
Then Sasha, "Mary is being unreasonable; you are going to have to calm her down."
Mary, "That bitch, I hate her!"
Sasha, "It's me or her!"
What was going on? I knew it could not be about me, the two of them had been involved before I came into the picture. Except for a legal technicality our threesome was as binding as any couple. Both of them were Alpha bitches outside our relationship and that's where the problem was. A little internet research was all I needed.
Mary had hired a chemist to work for her and he had been on the opposite side of a divorce Sasha instituted. To make matters more contentious, Sasha actually lost the case.
What should I do? Make them sweat.
I didn't return either of their calls and let some of the industry sources know, I was thinking of relocating. Finally I put my home on the market.
That achieved the result, Mary barged in, "What are you doing?" she demanded.
I looked at Sasha who had come in 5 minutes earlier.
"Neither one of you seems to care about our relationship, so I am leaving."
"Wait," the lawyer said. "It's not that simple."
"Don't worry, I'll keep our non disclosure agreement, "I told her.
"You bastard," "Mary shouted. "Do we mean so little to you?"
"Shall I play your phone calls?" I responded.
"That won't be necessary," Sasha said humbly. "I can guess that Mary's were similar to mine."
I breathed, "So let me get this straight." Pointing to Mary, "you hired Mr. Katzman who worked for a rival company whose head fired you."
Mary nodded.
"And Sasha represented that head that divorced Katzman?"
"I did."
"And you lost!" Mary sneered.
"You hired him to steal information." The lawyer responded.
"Shut up both of you!" I ordered them. "From my perspective the only hurt parties are Mr. Katzman and me. Sasha you tried to make him pay alimony when your client was worth 10 times as much."
"My job."
