The Dynamics Of The Triangle


 TWO DAYS LATER..

We paid another visit to the Pendelton Investment firm... This time we talked to people who hadn't been interviewed before, by either Lt. Tragg or us.

They told quite a different story and mentioned a man's name who had not been mentioned previously...

and it led us from Lee Hester's office to the office of Sherry Stevens..


"I KNOW HIM!!!! "said Josie.. "He was one of my professors at Wharton " she said, her eyes dancing..



A Vase of  White Roses sat on the desk of Sherry Stevens,  it had the inscription..."THINKING OF YOU IN SEATTLE BABY!! " Ian.

"These are beautiful.." gushed Bresha..
"YESSSSSSSSSSS! White Roses..." said Beverly, also gushing.


There was a vase of Yellow Roses ,also on her desk..

"Ohhhh Myyyyyy , So are these...Yellow Roses..." said Olivia...

There was another inscription.. "SO FOND OF YOU BABY!" -Ian.

"These arrived the day after she vanished." said Olivia.


There was a vase of Tulips on her desk also..

"LOVE YOU BABES...BUT THEN AGAIN YOU KNOW THAT!"- Lee H.



"Looks like he had competition...These flowers are from Lee." said Nelson.

"Ouuuu Tulips...They're beautiful too!"said Olivia.

"And none from her husband....That says a whole lot." said Bresha.

''She must have been hot stuff.. She's married and she's got two men at her office , trying hard to get into her panties....And maybe..just maybe they weren't trying that hard." said Beverly...
"You mean they were succeeding?" asked Josie..



"At least one or both of them were...These flowers are expensive and so is this florist....These aren't Happy Birthday flowers, these are thank you for a wonderful night of pleasure flowers.."said Nelson..

Beverly, Olivia, Josie and Bresha cracked up laughing

"Like you used to send me after we first got together."laughed Beverly..."And from this same florist...That's how you know." she said, cracking up laughing..
"Girrrrrrrrllll get your husssssband!" laughed Olivia, tears coming out of her eyes and streaming down her face, she was laughing so hard.
"That's okayy Nelson, we know you know the deal.."said Josie , who had purchased flowers for Beverly for him on several ocassions when they first started dating.
''Awwwwwww, that's sooo cute." laughed Bresha..


I walked in then....

"They told me I'd find you all in here..I checked all of the cab companies, Lfyt and Uber.. Only UBER received a call from Sherry that night and by the time their car got here, there was no one on the corner.
None of the other cab companies got a call from her.." I said.

"So somebody else showed up masquerading as an UBER and picked them both up...It's not hard to do.
And they both took an UBER together every night..Could be a nut, a serial killer or something."said Nelson.
"Yeah it could be...We don't have any other viable suspects." I said.

Just then , a handsome young man walked into the office...


"Hey, who is in Sherry's Office?" he said , then looked at us...Like mostly everyone in Philadelphia , he knew who we were...Well at least those two..

"Olivia Bennett-Alexander, Beverly West?? The Defense Attorneys??? JOSIE??? What are you doing here?"he asked.

"Hello Mr. Jobim." said Olivia with a smile.
"Hello Mr. Jobim." said Beverly.

"Hi Ian...I'm an Attorney now...I work for Olivia and Beverly." said Josie.

"Yes she does indeed." said Olivia.
"She's been with us since we opened the doors of our practice."said Beverly.

''She was my student when I taught Business at University of PENN... She had an Architect's Degree and was studying for her MBA...She was thinking of returning to New York at the time." said Ian Jobim.

"It's a rather long story, but I returned to Philly, started working for them and went to Community College and Drexel School of Law and got my degree and passed the bar and the rest is as you say,
History." said Josie.


"Hmmmmm sexy and well educated.. You're a criminal defense attorney...I thought you'd do Business Law."said Jobim..

"I do both....Let me introduce you to the rest of my friends...
This is Associate Attorney , Nelson East, Beverly's husband....
Associate Attorney , Bresha Billips
And Olivia's husband and our investigator, Donnie Ray Alexander..." said Josie..

He looked at me..

"You were the one asking a lot of questions to our staff members.....You and that Lieutenant Tragg...I think I like you a little better...At any rate....you're defending that piece of shit husband of hers who killed her...Weren't you guys just recently going up against him in court? I read about it before I went to Seattle." he asked.


''We don't think he's guilty and we can prove he was nowhere near this building that night..So naturally we were here asking questions to people who might know things." said Olivia.

"Like uh where were YOU that night?" I asked him..

''Wasn't in Philadelphia...I was on a red eye flight from Seattle ,that stopped over in Boston...You can check." he said.

''Oh I will." I said with a smile..

Beverly looked at the White Roses and the Yellow Roses..




"They're quite beautiful...A man doesn't send those kind of flowers to a woman unless she's special." said Beverly...

'She was Special to you wasn't she?" asked Bresha.



He seethed with a rage ,almost as if he resented us invading his special place..

"She was special...I loved her very much...and I know she loved me too...It was just her damn husband..
He got in the way." he said softly...
"Her Husband got in the way?" Nelson asked.

"She didn't love him..She married him for appearences...He was a big time U.S. Attorney with ambitions towards political office...but he neglected her..He worked all night on cases...He was obsessed with winning cases..He forgot her birthday, he forgot their anniversary...he never sent her flowers...He never made her feel like a woman.." said Ian..

"You made her feel like a woman didn't you?" asked Olivia softly...

"YESSSSSSSSSSSS!" he said..


''What about Lee Hester " I said looking at the Tulips he sent...



He appears to have been fond of her too." I said.

"He was a lightweight..He just wanted to get her in bed.. She knew that..She didn't take him seriously." said Ian.


''Were you and Mrs. Stewart ever intimate?" asked Josie.


I'm glad she asked that, because I wanted to know that myself..

II-
''Forget I asked that.." said Josie who was sorry she had asked that....It was a good question..
"Forget it.. I think we can establish that you were." said Olivia..


Beverly, like me didn't say a word...She wanted to know the whole story...and like me, she thought it was a good question.
I said nothing, I watched him...he seemed like he wanted to talk..

''Yes we were.. Only once... I wanted more..So did she..But we didn't do it more than once.." he said and he stared at Nelson and Bresha..


who looked at him attentively..



Sherry and I started at this firm around the same time...I was an Accountant/Financial Analyst and she was also a Financial Analyst... I was a consultant at first...I only came in three times a week and then after a year I became full time staff...She and I and Lee Hester worked closely together..

Lee and I jockeyed for alone time with her..She was engaged then....I was doing and saying everything I could to get her to change her mind...but she didn't..She married him..It was a destination wedding in Punta Cana...Don't you know, her husband to be arrived late?? He was finishing up a big case....she was devestated, but she married him anyway...

I was there...I was there when he forgot Wedding s, Annivesaries .Birthdays...what have you...I was a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on...Just waiting for the day when she would leave him and I would have my chance..


We were in Aqua Bar one night...It was Salsa Night..


And Taco Night.....


She wanted to dance..

But Mr. Driven Prosecutor couldn't be bothered..


He was on his phone all night long..



While she sat...and sulked..

"That's when I made my move...I asked her to dance..
"Your client, your piece of shit client gave her some money and said.. "Babe I gotta go..There has been a major break in the case..Here's some money....Call an UBER...I'll see you later." he said and he left..



"Sherry was furious and hurt also... We danced.." said Ian Jobim..

"I know where this is going." I whispered to Nelson.

Nelson smiled.





The "Girls" , Olivia, Beverly, Josie and Bresha listened with rapt attention...


"We danced and we dank and she cried...And I unloaded on her how I really felt about her ,How I'd always felt about her..
She stared in my eyes...
and I stared in hers and we both knew where this was going..



I took her as far away from there as I could.. I took her to the Sheraton near Penns Landing..

"Let's go in the bedroom and get our clothes off Ian.." said Sherry...She was nervous..She had never cheated on her husband before.



"Wellll, alrightttttt!" said Ian, smiling..He had always admired his co-worker's vivacious and sexy body for years ,He couldn't believe he was at last getting what he had wanted for so long..



Sherry stood in the doorway...

"I'm a little nervous .I 've never done this before..I've tried to be faithful " she said.



Ian began to shake...He was nervous and turned on...

His eyes bulged out of it's sockets , watching her undress...

That dress , that tight Mini Dress that she was wearing was brand new.. She had purchased it that afternoon, along with a matching bra and panty set.

She had gotten cat calls and whistles from several men all day..... Ian certainly noticed...He couldn't keep his eyes off of her. She felt naughty and sexy all at once..She felt guilty too. Just a tinge..


"You're a beautiful woman  Sherry...It's a shame your husband doesn't know it." said Ian.


"You are such a sweetheart Ian...Here , help me with my zipper." she said. As he unzippered her dress and watched as she stepped out of it.

"I bought some new panties and this matching bra yesterday ....You like?" she asked..




Ian's eyes were bulging out of their sockets...



"I take it that's a yes." she giggled.




"YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!" he said,

"Ohhhhhhhh stoppppp!" she giggled.

He ran his hands down into her panties and kissed her butter soft lips..



" He gently unhooked her bra and slipped her panties down....

"OHHHHHH  Look at you....OUUUUUUUU!" she laughed.. 

They stood in the doorway, kissing passionately...

"Ohhhhh my god, I couldn't wait.." Ian moaned..



"WOW!" he said...

"Oh My lord, you are HUGE!  You are going to make some woman happy?" she said......

''I want to make you happy" he said shyly...

"OHHHHH IAN, RIGHT NOW YOU ARE!! YOU ARRRRRE!" she said.

This got Ian  very excited..


He tossed her on the bed...

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Ian" she gasped... 

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmph."he groaned in his low baritone as the bed began to squeak and the headboard began to rattle..

''Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! IAN  baby!" she squealed..



  Ian  lifted her up!

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SWEEET BABY!!!" moaned  Ian..

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU TALK TO ME  LOVER!!!!OHHHH MYYYYY" cooed Sherry..He was nearly to her stomach, she gasped..



They were back in the bed now, going at each other strongly.....

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMPH!" he groaned..


"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOO HOOOOO, OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
OUUUU HOO HOO...OH MY GOD!!!! OUUUUWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! OH MY GOD!!!! IAN!!!!....OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!''Sherry screamed..She was pleasently surprised...

The bed was squeaking loud now and the headboard was slamming hard against the wall...

THREE TO FOUR HOURS slowly drifted by....She was impressed with his stamina...

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!  OHHHH IAN!!!, you aren't making any
damn sense!  OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU Myyyy  LORD!"said Sherry!

''OOOOOOOU..AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! SHERRY!!! SHERRY!" moaned Ian.

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu say my name baby...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" she cooed deliriously....



"SHERRY....OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he moaned..

"YESSSSSSSSSSS YESSSSSSSSSS BABYYYYY!" she cried out



THREE TO FOUR MORE HOURS PASSED  before IAN came and came hard....and Sherry's  legs began to quiver and then shake...her head turned from side to side and tears streamed down the side of her face..She was crying like a little girl....She was having ,she believed her fourth intense orgasm and just crying like a baby...

Sherry surprisingly continued kissing Ian and rubbing his penis until it hardened again....

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu there it is! OUUUU Look at that!!! OUUUUUU, It's Like Magic!" she said..

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM! YESSSSSSS BABY! YESSSS!" Ian moaned.. He couldn't believe his good fortune... He had finally got his beloved Sherry, after three years of hinting, begging, sending flowers...He finally got her!

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"  Sherry wailed..

"AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW SWEEET BABY!" moaned Ian..

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU YESSSSSSSS!" she cooed!

Ian was engaged and on her again....

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!"he moaned..

"TALK TO ME BABY...YOU LIKE IT BABY!?" she asked.

"YES!!! YES...OH YESSSSS!"moaned Ian..who didn't know if he was coming or going...

"I LIKE YOUUUUU TOOO!!! OUUUUUUUUUUU!!!  I LIKE YOU SO MUCH!  YOU DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND!" she cooed...She was having her fifth and sixth intense orgasms...

OH MY GOD.....OUUUUU MOREEEEE?" he asked.

"OUUUUUUUUU YESSSS...YESSSSS AND MORE , IF YOU WANT IT...I SURE DO!" she moaned..

"AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW..OUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" he moaned...


THREE TO FOUR  MORE HOURS drifted by....She was sitting on him, riding him hard.....


"AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW OUUUUUUUUUUUUUU MYY GOODNESS!" Ian  moaned as he began to cum like a gusher...

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM CUM DADDDY! CUM FOR MOMMY!!! OUUUUUUUUUU!"moaned Sherry!!!...This was a side of her he had never seen before..

Ian lie in between her legs....exhausted...neither of them knew what time it was.



Sherry wouldn't let Ian sleep , She continued kissing him, rubbing his large penis...keeping it hard..

''Since I'm here, you might as well take  as much of me as you want..." she cooed..


''OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.. LAWDDDDDDDD! " he moaned..He climbed back on top of her...


"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM..LOOK AT THAT!!" she cooed..

They were at it again...The Bed was squeaking out of control...….The headboard was slamming against the wall...

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu IAN BABY!!!!!!!, I'm not going to be able to walk tommorrow..but it feels so good!" she cooed..

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he moaned..

.
"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU IAN....YOU ARE DOING THE DAMN THING!" she moaned..


"AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW...OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he moaned..



They were standing in the middle of the floor now, IAN was long stroking her..

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU HOOOO HOOO HOOO HOOO HOOOOOO, Aye...Ayeeeeeeee, Ayeeeee, Ay yi yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii….OH MY GOD IANBABY!...OUUUUU! YOU ARE ALL UP IN THIS..OUUUUUUUUUU WEEEEEEEEEEEE!!" she screamed.

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU HOOOO HOOO HOOO HOOO HOOOOOO, Aye...Ayeeeeeeee, Ayeeeee, Ay yi yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii….OH MY GOD ...OUUUUU!  ayyyee, aye yi yiiiiii" she screamed.


They were back in bed...going at it slower..

FIVE TO SIX HOURS DRIFTED BY

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMPH!" he moaned...

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu lover...ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu this is soooooooo
nice...Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..YOU LIKE IT ?" she cooed softly..

"YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!" moaned Ian as he came again like a gusher...




Ian lie in between Sherry's legs, exhausted....too exhausted to move...Sherry was  totally satisfied...She had never had this many orgasms and such strong ones at that...She held Ian's head in her arms..She was so glad she had left the club with Ian. To think what she might have missed out on..

"The sun was up...It was Daybreak..


"THAT WAS THE GREATEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE" said Ian.

We went to Sam Mother's Diner and had breakfast the next morning.

We both called out from work..
We had Omelettes
Scrapple
Bacon

and hot coffee... 

And we went home..

'"Well when was this? what happened next?" asked Olivia.
"This was in April..Mid April...She never talked about it again...She avoided discussing it with me...I don't think her husband noticed she was gone all night..He had been out on a stakeout with the FBI...He's a prosecutor and he actually goes out with the FBI to make a sting.

"Lots of Prosecutors go out with the cops sometimes." said Beverly..She knew this from her and her aunt's days of being Public Defenders..
I knew it from being a cop..and having prosecutors go out with me.

"Maybe..but she never discussed it with me again...It was like it didn't happen...but I know it did."said Ian.. who was visibly upset... "Now if you don't mind..I would uh like to go." he said and got up..

"Goodbye Ian..It was nice seeing you again." said Josie.



As Bresha and Nelson watched from a distance..


III-


Special Prosecutor, Amanda Garcetti sat in her office looking over the case and looking at files on us like the last two Special Prosecutors had done..


She was quite impressed....

''She knew of the reputation...They were all very good...No slouches...So she would have to be on her A game..


Lt. Tragg walked in... He had no coffee , No pastries, no nothing..

"You didn't bring coffee. Most guys that want to have their hands all up my skirt and in my panties bring me coffee at least." she said and smirked..

He smiled.. His face was as red as a beet and he had a pleased as punch look on his face..

"Olivia Bennett-Alexander, Beverly West, Nelson East, Josie Boyd and Bresha Billips were at Pendelton  Investments today and they've been there the past few days...I suspect they've been talking to more people..People YOU HAVEN'T TALKED TO... They were also at BIG FED too...Now why didn't you go back like I asked you to?" she asked him..


"Because I thoroughly interviewed everyone who needed to be interviewed and got the information I wanted.That's why." he said, the smile leaving his face.

''Everybody I've talked to about you says that you are hard headed, bull headed, never listen to advice and nine times out of ten, you leave something missing from a case that causes them to lose a case.
Do you know why I'm here? I'm not with the D.A.'s office....I'm an attorney that works in Private Practice..  I was brought in to prosecute this case, because my uncle can't get any of his ADA's to work with YOU on this case...Now I want to be successful...I want to nail this guy and I want you to look good too...and the only way for us both to be successful is IF YOU GET BACK TO PENDELTON AND GET ME SOME MORE INFORMATION, EVIDENCE TO HELP WITH THIS WEAK ASS CASE you have dropped in my lap." she said.


Lt. Tragg was as red as a beet...He didn't like being talked to like this by anyone and especially a woman..He stomped his foot and stormed out of the office,,


As for us..We were done with Pendelton...There was no more evidence to glean from there or BIG FED.

We all sat in Sam Mother's Diner having breakfast...a late Breakfast.
"Let's look at what we do know.. This woman slept with both of these guys at least once." I said.
''Question is..are there any others? Is there yet another man in the mix?" asked Olivia.
"Isn't there enough?" asked Nelson..
Beverly laughed.. "Hush Up goofball." she said and playfully hugged her husband..

Bresha and Josie walked in just then and sat with us..

"We checked like you said Donnie Ray...Ian's alibi checks out." said Bresha.
" He was on a Red eye flight from Seattle that laid over in Boston and arrived in Philadelphia at 4:00 am"said Josie.

Our Breakfasts arrived..

Shrimp and Grits
Oatmeal
Omelettes
Hash Browns
Bacon
Scrapple

and hot coffee.

And wouldn't you know it.. As soon as we started eating good.. Lt. Tragg walks in..


Naturally he makes a bee line to our table..

"I heard you were at my crime scenes a few days this week..."he snarled.


"Can we eat a meal in peace, go awayyyyyy!" said Beverly..


Naturally it was like talking to ourselves, he stood there..

"WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT INTERFERING WITH MY CRIME SCENE?" he bellowed.



Olivia pulled her phone out of her purse and began dialing it.. But before she finished dialing , Special Prosecutor, Amanda Garcetti walked in..


''What are you doing here? I told you to find me some more evidence." she said sternly to Lt. Tragg.

"Can't I get breakfast?" he snarled.
"You don't look like you're getting breakfast...You look like you're harrassing these people who ARE EATING BREAKFAST!" she said.


"Oh for the love of Pete!" he snarled and walked out of the diner..
"I guess I owe you a thank you...I was getting ready to call the Sherrif...He's on a Cease and desist order, which means he can't be one hundred feet near us."said Olivia.
"I know..I heard you had him locked up a few weeks ago.  He's stuck on stupid...but he's all I have at the moment. I'm going to see if I can get an Investigator through the D.A.'s office.. But I guess I shouldn't be telling you that... I'm Special Prosecutor, Amanda Garcetti, it's going to be an honor going up against you guys." she said.
"I know you don't remember me, but we were in Law school together..We had a class or two...I met you and your Uncle a little while later after we both had taken the bar."said Olivia.
"This is my husband, Donnie Ray Alexander, our investigator.
"My niece, Beverly...Founding partner of our firm...
Her Husband, Associate Attorney Nelson East..
Associate Attorney , Mrs. Josie Boyd
And Mrs. Bresha Billips, our other Associate Attorney." said Olivia.

"A very nice looking group and from what I hear, quite astute..Like I said. It will be a pleasure trying a case against you." she said and walked away.

"She was nice." said Beverly.

''Yes she was..but don't let that sway you." said Olivia.

IV-


We sat down at our conference room table..


No one said much....

"I've had some skimpy defenses before...but never like this..We've got next to nothing."said Olivia.
"But on the flip side the prosecution has even less..I mean what do they have? Office Gossip and hearsay going both ways." said Beverly..


''Not a bit of physical evidence puts our client at  the scene of the crime. No prints, no DNA. He's not on the Street, Traffic or business cams or any of the cameras inside the building." said Nelson..

''But somebody was in that building...Somebody had to be.."said Josie.
"They were picked up by somebody...I'm going to check that corner again...One of the cameras must have picked up a car or something..Must have..." I said.

" She wasn't  a serial cheater..It looks like she slept with both of these guys just once...Maybe they were both bugging her and she felt like if she gave em some once and they got it out of their systems they'd leave her alone." said Bresha.


''That's an interesting perspective Bree...But that just doesn't play." said Nelson.

"That's never been my experience." said Beverly..
"Mine neither...Give it  to em once and you usually can't get rid of em.." said Josie.
" Especially if they've been bugging you for it, for a long time. You can't  think it's that cut and dry,do you Bree?" asked Olivia.

"I think the dynamics of the relationships between her and the  two men is the key to this whole thing somehow." said Bresha.

"I agree Bree, but one man is dead and the only other man has a rock solid alibi..He wasn't here."said Beverly.

"Yeah it does seem that way...doesn't it? and We have no indication of there being a third man in the equation." I said.


''So what have we got?" asked Josie.

''Just what I said...A whole lot of nothing." said Olivia.


And at a Car Detailing Shop near the Airport...


 A certain car was being detailed...



A phone called was made..


"Hey Pick this car up...It's ready...It's been here for two weeks now!" said the man...
