    Chapter XVIII

    May 13th, 2011, Greenwich, CT. The months flew by and, in hindsight (which is always 20/20 vision), it was due to us actually communicating, something I hadn't really thought possible. These days, living under one roof with Greg wasn’t as bad as I’d imagined it’d be at the start of this whole thing. We were co-habiting on friendly terms. That’s not to say we didn’t have our little run-ins. Greg was still quick to anger if things didn't go his way and I was still quick to defense, resulti

    TBH, I'd have put arsenic in his food by now, lol!

    Chapter XVII

    February 14th, 2011, Greenwich, CT “I left an emergency number by the telephone in the study,” Greg said in the late afternoon, coming into the den. "It should also be programmed in your phone. And there's a list of handy ones in the drawer below." As it always had been. And yes, I had noted a dozen more numbers in my phone contact list I hadn't seen before, three of which were his, Alan's was in there and Montgomery International's main number and two secretaries. He'd been f

    Doesn't it? And if you slow down a little bit, I'm about to post yet another...

    Easy now...the worst is over... well...maybe not.

    Chapter IX

    It's a mix of several things, among which some you mention but no, not about the older brother. <teasing mode OFF>

    Chapter VIII

    Sometimes, we need to step beyond our preconceptions in certain areas. Greg is a jerk, and will be more of a jerk in the next chapters, but...bear with him. Have you ever known me not to take care of....jerks?

    Chapter XVI

    Chris didn't forget, nor has he decided to not think about it. The way he deals with it is different from what you possibly would do, but he will. Among the ways of doing so, there will be.... words.

    That will be explained, yes. He wasn't always the way he is now. You'll see more glimpses of him, in the coming chapters.

    Mine! Not so much an error as it was a repetitive line.

    Chapter XVI

    February 11th, 2011, Greenwich, CT The following morning, I woke up far beyond my usual time. Normally I’d get up at 7am, but when I glanced at the alarm, my eyes not yet accustomed to the light that streamed into the room, it showed 09:12am. Yikes! I never sleep in, working for old Mr. Montgomery had prohibited it, and I need my eight hours. Anything less will result in a very grumpy Chris. I'm usually a morning person, chipper, cheerful, but today, the jury hadn't come to a verdict y

    He had clean undies at the bottom of the suitcase. Doncha just hate it when that happens; needing something and having to dig through...

    No offense taken, BA. I thank you for reading this far.

    There's an error in here. I just saw it. lol.

    Chapter XV

    February 10th, 2011, Greenwich, CT This went on for over another week. I cooked, he came in for a plate, gave me hassle about not eating in the dining room and for the rest of the evening, there was peace and quiet. He didn’t try to talk any more or apologize for his obvious mistake of misinterpreting the relationship between his father and me. Then, on a Friday night, he came into the kitchen (he had an uncanny way of knowing just when to come in, before I was done cooking), just as I was

    Chapter I

    Hmm, not meant a plot device. The instructions were in there, so I guess convenience. I really don't remember, that chapter remained as it was for years. Oops?

    Be sure to re-read. The edit I did was minor, but for development reason i had to take something out. That needs to happen later.

    Minor edit happened. Sorry 'bout that. The seed file I use has a different version of the story. $%^&*( - Another little edit. I copied from the wrong file!

    Chapter XIV

    And so the year began. Even though I chose to not continue as a butler, officially accepting the will and its contents via notary, I ended up doing the tasks still. Maybe it was because of automatism. It was what I knew best. It also didn’t help Gregory had run the maid off with his boorish behavior, either. She had worked for old Mr. Montgomery for close to ten years, coming in twice a week for a few hours to help with cleaning and dusting; one week with Jr. and she was out the door. T

    Chapter XIII

    January 12th, 2011, Greenwich, CT We survived the weekend without too much mishap; I mainly avoided Gregory whenever I could; if he noticed it, he didn’t let on. The overall tone was a bit sad, though. An era had come to an end, or so it seemed. Soon I’d have to leave, and that saddened me more than I expected. Mr. Montgomery had been very good to me. Not only financially, but also as a human being. He’d given me a chance when no one else would, and for that, I’d always be thankful.
