Paul might not have known Colette long, but he felt her knew her well enough to know she didn't care what happened to Rich. Especially after the way he had treated her. Honestly, Paul didn't care too much about what happened to Rich either. He just didn't want other people to get caught in the cross fire.<br/><br/>Paul nodded his head when Colette said she'd be careful. He believed she would try her best to be. He hoped the letter would reach whoever was behind his note and they would be willing to talk. Work something out that wouldn't involve a lot of bloodshed.<br/><br/>---------------------------------<br/><br/>Shane gave Marie a smile when she came for the letter. He believed she would take it Diane right away. He just hoped Diane was willing to listen. He knew how much she loved her dad, but surely Walter wouldn't want his daughter married to a man that hit her. Walter Simcox wasn't a perfect man by any means but Shane knew he did love Diane. Shane didn't think Walter would want her to remain married to a man that hit her. He squeezed Marie's hand and said.<br/><br/>"Okay, thank you. I just hope she'll listen."<br/><br/>He knew how stubborn Diane could be at times. When she had her mind set to something, it was difficult to change it.<br/><br/>---------------------------------<br/><br/>Diane tried to take a nap after Martin and Rich left her alone but it wasn't working. All she could think about was what happened today. How she stupidly fought with her husband and how Martin and Rich then framed her ex for what happened to her face. How Shane had gotten arrested for it.<br/><br/>"Oh, Shane....I'm sorry. I didn't mean for any of this to happen."<br/><br/>Diane muttered out loud, not that Shane would hear it. She'd probably never see Shane again. He was such a good guy, he deserved to much better then her. She walked over to the desk and decided to write Shane a letter. A goodbye letter, a letter that would hopefully convince him to go home and move on with his life. Give his love to someone who deserved him. She hoped he was out of jail soon. She didn't want Martin to press charges on Shane. He was only trying to protect her. Diane had no plans on changing her mind about staying married to Martin, she had to. She had to help her dad with his debts and....Well, she knew too many of Martin and Rich's secrets. If she left, she wouldn't put it pass Rich to something to her like he had done to others that crossed him. She didn't want to end up like Gloria Neal or Amy Stevens.<br/><br/>---------------------------------<br/><br/>The Italian Lady would have been able to out act Martin Hayes in a scene. Rich had no idea how disgusted she was by him. He truly believed she was very thrilled to have the pleasure of his company once again. Also, if he known he was on some women's hit list, he certainly would have been on the first plane back to the States. But he didn't and Rich thought he was having one of the best nights of his life.<br/><br/>"That is very true."<br/><br/>Rich replied to the lady with a grin. He was very full of himself and quite enjoying his time with her once again.<br/><br/>---------------------------------<br/><br/>After the day Martin, he definitely wanted to relax. The last thing he wanted to do right now was think about Diane and her face. He just hoped she had learned her lesson from today and didn't act like that again. If she did...Well, he wouldn't have a Shane Malone around to frame the next time. For now, though, he was going to forget all about his wife and focus on Pierre.<br/><br/>Martin grinned at Pierre and returned his kiss.<br/><br/>"Good, I'm glad."<br/><br/>He said huskily when Pierre said he was Martin's. That's exactly what he wanted to hear. He let Pierre take off his shirt and started to take the Frenchman's shirt off as well.<br/><br/>"I want you to scream my name."<br/><br/>Martin whispered against Pierre's ear, as he kissed his neck.
