Oh my! Poor Charles. Well now we know what Jeanne's hold on Helen is. Another well written and entertaining chapter. I didn't see any grammar or spelling mistakes. Great chapter.

Good chapter again, mate. I did French in First Form. Then latin for three years after that. Should have stuck to French but the Latin kind of tuned in with the Italian for my Music courses. No spags and one comment. skew-whiff ... Have not heard this expression for ages.

Catching up slow but sure. It looks like Helen is more than a heartbreaker. Charles is too good for her, I think. It's hard to say for sure as this story keeps twisting and turning. Hopefully, they will snag the goose in spite of themselves. Fine writing, Tony!
All my best,
Sal

And once again, dear Tony, I sigh with admiration at a writer with the sort of talent I can only sigh about. Imageries to knock the breath off me, twists and turns to get my head going like th skirts of a dervish.

Need I say more? Yes - my regret tht I've wasted six stars I should have kept for this.

Jeanne put her arm around her(here, I think it's vital to differential. Therefore, I'd suggest you say "Helen's" instead of just "her") shoulder and cast a defiant look in my direction.

How easy, I thought, to become angry about things one doesn't understand. ~ So true, especially in our current world.

Very many thanks for another hugely supportive review, Aki. You are absolutely right about the 'arm around her'. I initially wrote Helen, but took it out because her name appears later in the same paragraph. However, I can see how the emphasis is needed. All the best, Tony

Another in a series of great prose. I knew the sexuality thing was coming but still it was a well played bit. You have a real talent of bringing your players to life. Avery well executed work my friend.

I thought the lovesick orange was a cute touch. Well, some of the mystery of Jeanne's hold over Helen is explained. I think Charles is well out of it and hope he stays in England.

Haha, I was wondering about that reference to orange. You did a good job with this chapter, Tony. I enjoyed reading it. I had Jeanne figured wrong. That was a little surprise, but it all fits. I am wondering what Charles will find out and do now that he is alone for a while, but I don't see him be alone long. Good job and thanks for sharing. Jan

As always, a very entertaining story chapter. What is poor Charles to do? Good title for this chapter. Wondering if he will contact Kayla.... One edit for you below:

"Where is Kayla,(?)" I asked.

Enjoyed!

Well, things can take a turn at the Merry go round, the admission that Helen was bisexual came out of left field, but without understanding from a personal angle, I guess that is an explanation. These liaisons ate a mystery to me, as they would be a mystery to Charles' wove character. An excellent episode, Tony, blessings, Roy

Your style of writing flows so brilliantly and is in no way forces.. I thoroughly enjoyed this and it made me want to read more! The style is very easy to read and flows in what I would call a proffessional and expert manner, The character portrait is amazing and I could visualise everyone as I read.
