Revenge Is Fair In Love ch. 5 Gwen's Revenge
by lordoftheringsfan
 

      Gwen speeded down the long Crane driveway and parked her car at a random angle in the area outside the Cranes' garage. Tears streaming down her face, Gwen rushed inside.
      "We should probably get some sleep," Julian said with a yawn later that night.

      "I know you're probably right, but I think we should stay up in case Sam calls back." Rebecca said.

      "We'll call in the morning," Julian said. "It's late."

      "Alright, pookey," Rebecca said as they headed upstairs. A few minutes later as they had turned off the light to go to sleep, the door burst open.

      "What the hell is going on?" Julian asked. Gwen turned on a light.

      "It was horrible," was all that Gwen could say.

      "Gwennie, what happened?" Rebecca asked.

      "Theresa is alive and she stole Ethan away from me the second she walked into the door." Gwen said. Julian and Rebecca stared at her in shock.

      "That two-timing witch is alive!?" Rebecca exclaimed.

      "Yes, and she's taken Ethan from me!" Gwen said.

      "This is exactly what I was talking about, pookey! Theresa faked her death like she did before, and she kidnapped our son!" Rebecca said.

      "What!? Allan was kidnapped?" Gwen asked.

      "Sam didn't tell you when he went back over to the Bennetts?" Rebecca asked.

      "Oh my God," Gwen said. "When was he kidnapped?"

      "A few hours ago," Rebecca said. "We had just put him to bed, and then we noticed the light was turned on when we came back in here. We went back into the room to check on him, and then the window was open and our son was gone."

      "We did lock the window," Julian said.

      "How would someone get past the Crane security system?" Gwen asked. "I know there was extra security around that room."

      "That's what we're trying to figure out." Julian said.

      "Sam did find a black scarf hanging from the window." Rebecca said. Gwen flashed back to the Bennette house and remembered that Theresa was wearing a black hat and gloves, but she had no scarf.

      "Oh my gosh," Gwen said. "When Theresa was at the Bennettes, she had a black hat and gloves on, but she didn't have a scarf!"

      "I'm going over to the Bennettes right now!" Julian said.

      "Me too!" Rebecca said. "Gwen, you're coming to so you can make sure that Theresa doesn't get Ethan!"

      "Mother, I just can't keep this up anymore," Gwen said. "Ethan tells me that he loves me, but he always decides that he loves Theresa at a split second and goes back to her, and then he comes back to me and tells me that he can trust me and not her, but then he ends up leaving me for her again. I just can't fight this battle anymore." Gwen said. "Ethan and I are married," Gwen said. "He told Theresa that he loved her and kissed her the minute he walked in the door."

      "Oh, poor Gwennie," Rebecca said, hugging Gwen. "We're going over to the Bennette house and making Theresa pay."

      "Mother, that's not the point." Gwen said.

      "You're just not going to let that little terror take Ethan, are you?" Rebecca asked.

      "I can't keep this up anymore," Gwen said.

      "If I can get Julian back, you can get Ethan back!" Rebecca said.

      "Mother, Ethan and I are married. If he tells another woman that he loves her when I'm standing right there, how can I trust him?" Gwen asked.

      "Too bad Sam took that scarf as evidence," Rebecca said. "I'd use it to strangle Ethan and Theresa with!"

      "Mother, it's not worth it." Gwen said. "Ethan made it clear tonight that he doesn't love me. I'm going to ask Ethan for a divorce."

      "Divorce!?" Rebecca exclaimed.

      "Yes. I'm not going to put up with waking up every day with Ethan telling me he'll love me but not knowing whether he still will when I go to bed that night." Gwen said.

      "I'm not going to let Theresa get away with what she's doing to both of my children," Rebecca said.

      "Mother, how could you be so sure that it was Theresa who kidnapped Allan?" Gwen asked.

      "I'm going to the Bennettes right now," Rebecca siad, following Julian.
 



 

      "Theresa, I love you so much," Ethan said, kissing Theresa again. Theresa had been telling everyone a fake story about where she had been.

      "I just hope nobody hears Allan if he starts crying in that attic," Theresa thought, realizing that Gwen had left the mansion. Pilar, Luis, and Miguel had arrived. As she threw her arms around her family and as everyone told each other how much they loved each other, Theresa's hat fell off. Sam noticed something about the hat, that the designer label was showing.

      "This can't be right," Sam said, flashing back to the black scarf, which had the exact same patterns on it as the hat and gloves. Julian and Rebecca rushed into the door, followed by Gwen.

      "You won't get away with it!" Julian yelled.

      "What are you talking about?" Ethan asked.

      "We know you're the one who kidnapped our son!" Rebecca yelled. Everyone looked at her like she was crazy.

      "What are you talking about?" Theresa lied.

      "Oh, stop the lies, Theresa!" Rebecca said.

      "You'll do anything to turn Ethan against me, won't you?" Theresa asked.

      "You know what, Theresa? You deserve Ethan!" Gwen yelled.

      "What?" Ethan asked.

      "Even more than you deserve this!" Gwen yelled, punching Theresa so hard that she knocked her out. Gwen watched furiously as Theresa fell to the floor.

      "Gwen, I can explain." Ethan said.

      "Ethan, there's no good enough explanation that you could possibly get." Gwen said. "I want a divorce!"
