The title is excellent! Jennifer definitively hit the bone!

Wow! Is there really such a thing as the Wasp nest? I have no idea. I didn't grow up in the country club way but I did experience life as a Catholic Italian woman and my family & those like us had our own set of rules and traditions shall I say lol The Wasp nest just seems so outrageous, I'm just wondering if there's any truth to it. Haha another great chapter Nichelle!

OH MY! So very happy to see an update of this wonderful, wonderful story! And a long chapter to boot! Thank you so much for this update. What a tangled web of deceit you weave. Frickin Lindsay! One would think Chase would have been smart enough to use a condom. Why chance getting an inmate pregnant? Surely he would see how that would ruin his career...
Gardner better run for hills. Brian is not done playing with him yet. Could this also put Troy back in their line of vision?
Good to know Christian won't be alone when meeting Hobbs, Sr (he doesn't deserve to be called his father). I wonder what his angle to talking to Christain is. Whatever it is, he won't get the chance with Daphne there. She's too well versed in the WASP area. I doubt he will be happy to see three women present. He's a man's, man after all. Women are below him. To see the three of them in a position of power, might have him coming undone.
Why wasn't Brian called as a witness in Chris' trial? I always wondered about that in canon. I understand why canon treated the situation as they did for the story arc, but in reality, wouldn't the DA call him as a witness? I know in this story the DA was probably bought by Ron Peterson, or others, but wouldn't the press be outraged?
Brian's going to see Michael? Why? He better have a two-way mirror and a special tie pin. Michael is going to be so exuberant when he sees Brian has come to see him. Maybe playing with him a bit before he gets down to the reason of his visit, will help Michael open up, and be a little more loosed tongue.
I was so happy to see Joan and Jennifer building a friendship. Joan has had so much character growth. I've read a few stories where Joan has had a change of heart and bonded with Brian, but this is way better than any of other relationships that I've read of the two of them and what they are building. Gay Studies. I sure hope Debbie doesn't join the class. I think Vic will be disappointed in Deb when he finds out she blasted into their conversation. Knowing her mouth, I'm sure she will be ranting about it when she gets back, about the way Jennifer talked to her. Glad Jennifer put her in her place. Deb, like a few others, just don't know when to shut up! Deb would do well to remember just who Jennifer is.
Once again, thank you for the update, and writing this awesome story, and sorry for the ranting...
Hugs, Cathy

So much to look forward to. Now I must go back and find out who is paying for Deb's schooling.

Woah! Did not see that plot twist coming at all! Lindsay was spying for Vance! That bitch has so much devastation coming her way! I certainly hope that Chase and Tara take Justin's advice about coming clean with the marriage before Lindsay can do anything.
I am looking forward to the meeting between Christian and his father; especially when he finds out that Daphne, Cynthia, and Mel will be there, too. He sounds like a man that would believe that women belong barefoot and pregnant, never to be heard only seen. He'll have to be scraped off the bottom of their very expensive shoes by the end of the meeting! LOL!
Good to see Joan is going forward with her plans to learn and that Jennifer is joining her in the Gay Studies class. Let's hope Deb doesn't hear and decide to join. She'd probably try to take over the class.
Looking forward to the next update!

Wow, great chapter. Can Lindsay get any worse? There are times when I really dislike her more than Michael since he is just an idiot where as she is crafty, sneaky and some other words I will not use. Love how the story is moving along. Terrific writing.

Oh Lindsay you are still playing checkers and it looks like you are about to sacrifice your pawn little girl!!
R
Tara and Chase should've known better than to get involved with a Gutter Whore like Lindsay and they will deal with the consequences, but perhaps something good could come out of this like saving that baby from Lindsay?
I mean it's not like she is going to be able to raise the baby in prison.
If they beat Lindsay to the press then they can spin the story to make it seem like they while being stupid, would be way better parents than a Prison Whore.
Brian and Justin laying everything out there prevent Gardner, Lindsay or anyone else from using their sexual history to tarnish Kinnetik, plus it gives them no leg to stand on when trying to destroy Brian and Justin's reputation in the business community.
By them controlling the way the conference is done they make Gardner and his cohorts look like bitter, conniving, jealous A-Holes.
Debra could've just walked away but she thrust herself into a conversation that really doesn't concern to berate a woman who is trying to make amends with her son while bettering her life, what did Debra hope to gain by trying to put down Joan?
It still doesn't change what she did to keep Michael Innocent and Saintly in her eyes?
All she did was move fifteen steps back instead of staying in her own lane smh
Jennifer is itching to give someone a beat down lol
She and Joan are an interesting friendship and I see them enjoying it a lot ;)
Thanks for the Update *Big Hugs*

Finally saw your response to my review on 9/7... Thank you for your information. I know it's got to be very difficult to respond to every review, so thank you for answering mine. I really did forget the part of the story where Michael had wanted Lindsay to sign over her rights, then proceeding to call CPS. How idiotic it was to confirm Brian he was the one who called CPS. What did he hope to gain by admitting that? Anyway, by reading them, I was also caught up on Craig and Michael's connection, and the Jared Thorne arc. So, it was good to reread. I almost wonder if I shouldn't go back and read it all from the beginning, as there are so many twists and turns in this story. But, again thanks for your response. I always read other readers reviews to get their gist on the story, too. I do hope we get an update soon, not only to this story, but also BILG... (just a hint) :)
Hugs, Cathy

Chelle,
My favorite part was where you have Justin seeing Brian for the first time when he was only twelve. It fits in perfectly and is really something that could have happened. Loving this story.

Lindsay walked into that room feeling Superior and walked out Red in the Face and her Ass Stung!!
So daddy helped Lindsay with the Chris Hobbs Case, do Mommy and Daddy know that Jennifer and her children are Alwins??
Dun dun dunnn!!
So Miss I Always Lie thought Brian would go along with her story and raise the baby with her <eye roll> that baby doesn't deserve to have her genes but hopefully once he or she are born someone will save that child.L
Lynette is pregnant with Twins??!!!
Ouch That's Gotta Hurt!!!
Will Uncle Charles be in court?
Lindsay might like to see him again before she goes to prison for years ;)
So what new plan will Lindsay come up with next and how many accounts does...did she have?
That wasn't egg on Lindsay's face it was manure and it is raining all over her Entitlement Parade rofl
Brilliant Chapter!!
Date: Sep 07, 2018 5:54 pm Title: CLASH OF THE WASP Part 3: A HOLE IN ONE or SHOULD THAT BE AN ACE IN THE HOLE? LINDSAY CAN'T DECIDE!
Oh, Lindsay is going to be sick for quite some time. I don't know what will make her the most angry: Mel having Brian's baby or the money going back to Justinor Justin being an Alwin?
You are on fire! Please keep writing!

Thank you for this super fast update!
Brian is so funny day dreaming of Justin as his sunshine. Lindsay will be pissed because Justin will be present and Mel is fabulous.

What an enjoyable chapter and we learned so much. Lindsay is going to have a nervous breakdown.

Date: Sep 07, 2018 1:54 pm Title: CLASH OF THE WASP Part 2: THE TRAIN IS COMING
Lindsay is about to meet her match. Justice with Justin will prevail no matter what Lindsay tries.

Go Mel! Show Lindsay what she's missing and will be missing for a very long time. lol Good for Justin, all up in Lindsay's face with the truth, all sassy as can be! Great chapter!
Date: Sep 07, 2018 11:57 am Title: CLASH OF THE WASP Part 3: A HOLE IN ONE or SHOULD THAT BE AN ACE IN THE HOLE? LINDSAY CAN'T DECIDE!
OMG! Nichelle you are a pure genius! I don't think I've ever read another author that can quite give your spin on a story. I reread the part when Justin is giving Lindsay all the information on her past conspiracies about 4 times. Wanted to be sure I understood everything really well, and didn't miss anything. The one big reveal, is that they don't know about Lindsay setting up the bashing... Boy, when THAT comes out... I don't know if I'm even prepared for what that will entail. Because when Russo's cases go for retrial, Chris is going to sing like a canary in order to take some of the heat off of him.
You mentioned something about Michael using Gus... apparently I've forgotten or overlooked something. What did you mean by that?
Nice twist on Lynette's babies. And the fact Lindsay started all this before she went to college... JUST WOW! And, an affair with Craig... *shiver's* And throwing that comment about Mel having Brian's, possibly Justin's baby, was icing on the cake for us reader's.
By any chance is Sheila gay? How is it that Lindsay can disregard Sheila's super good looks if in Brian's opinion she could appear in the wider world magazines? So loving this tale you are spinning...
Hugs, Cathy
Author's Response:
Hi Cathy,
The answer to you question about Michael trying to use Gus to bring Brian to heel, is in Chapter 28. But to bring it all into perspective, I'll suggest going from Chapter 27 to get the full gist of what Michael did and why.
As for Lindsay not acknowledging Shelia's beauty, the answer there is quite simple. Lindsay is an opportunistic person. The only way she'll look twice at a person, place, thing, or situation is if she can take advantage of it in some way. Shelia is certainly NOT such a person, therefore Lindsay will overlook her as if she is a nonentity, inconsequential, or lacking in some way. It's how Lindsay operates; finding a beautiful person both on the outside and inside, and then twisting them into how she needs them to be to suit her own ends. However, she's now realizing that she may not have been as good at that as she previously thought. Her reaction to Mel and Brian's newfound strength and solidarity, which was obvious in so many ways, especially when Brian excluded her from belonging in Gus' parent circle, was very telling. And then her exposure to who Justin is NOW, as opposed to the insecure young man he was just after the bashing, literally threw all of the thoughts she'd ever had of herself as the 'Mistress of Manipulation' clear apart, and she doesn't quite know how to take that.
I'm almost certain that we haven't seen or heard the last of her, but it will be interesting to see what she does next.
HAPPY READING and HUGS,
~Nichelle

Wonderful chapter. Could just picture the look on Lindsay's face. Terrific writing as usual.

Damn!
Lindsay Lindsay Lindsay! Did the sting of the wasp hurt very much? Bravo Justin.
Mel is going to have a Taylor-Kinney baby sometime in the future? Wonderful news for all. Well...most.

OMG, Nichelle! This is pure genius! Justin is pure gold taking Lindsay down and even shocked Brian and Mel a couple of times! But that last bit with Brian and Mel talking about the three of them having a child together was priceless!
I can't wait to see what happens next!!
*HUGS*

Oooo If I didn't like you so much and enjoy your writing I would lock you in a room with Michael!!! ;)
Sheila, Brian and Mel are about to learn When stinging a Wasp it is always best to have a sharp, gold gilt plated stinger with your True Family's initials on it so every time they they think of you they remember the sting lol
Lindsay still believes she has some standing being born a Peterson, poor little idiot never knew who she was really dealing with, now that Justin has regained part of himself and reinvented another part he has the power and when the times comes Lindsay will understand what it means to be Afraid.
Jennifer Alwin taught her children well and that teaching is about to pay off.
Maybe Craig should've remembered that cause while Jennifer Taylor may have let it go, Jennifer Alwin Is About To Sting His Ass A New Zip Code!!! rofl
After all it was Jennifer Alwin who beat down Claire and that was just a warning:)
Yes This Show Is Going To Enthralling!!!
Author's Response:
LOL! Blue that thought alone just gave me nightmares! It's bad enough to be somewhat trapped inside my head with Captain Pain-in-the-Ass until I write him out, but locking me in a room??? OMG! That makes me ask the question Drew did in BILG: I can drown him and not be arrested? LOL
Well, you'll be happy to know that the next chapter of the "Clash of the WASP" is up and ready for you to have a reading good time!
Happy Reading Darling!

LOL! I love that Brian shopped for Mel and she can't complain because she looks so damn good! LMAO!!
Justin is definitely on the warpath and Lindsay is about to enter Hell on Earth and she won't even know it until she is firmly planted.
Looking forward to the meeting!

Thank you for another terrific chapter. Can't wait until Lindsay meets the three of them. She is definitely in for more than she can handle. And, when you are writing you make me feel good that you are feeling good.
