But still, something was wrong. I just knew it. (Maybe that's because something is always wrong with sims!)
I used NRaas to check Donna's status. It said she had 3 children and was married to David. I checked David's status and it said he had 4 children! ...Well now, time to do a little digging. I went online to SimsWikia and found some interesting info.
From Donna's bio:
Samantha! She's a friend of Donna's! From Samantha's bio, I read:Donna can’t bring herself to admit to seeing David and Samantha Cassat’s flirty exchanges so instead she occupies herself with her loving children.
Well, Samantha is in for a big shock! The All Knowing is about to give her life, David's and Donna's a sharp spin on the Wheel of Fate! Little Evelyn's future is looking brighter already.Samantha is a temptress who can get any man she wants. Recently, she found herself pregnant with her neighbor and co-worker, David Morgan, a married man, and thinks that his wife, Donna, has no suspicion of the case.
You see, I knew of another man in town who I thought just might be the true love of Donna's life: Olivier "Daddy" Harbucks. Wealthy, single, and available. He also has a lot in common with Donna: both are Pisces, Good, Family-Oriented, and have LT Wishes to be Surrounded by Family.
This is where Olivier lives with his adopted daughter, Shirley Templeton. Lots of room for a large family, right?
So, now I just needed to figure out how to make this happen with inactive sims. I needed a hero! And who better than Elliot.
Donna: Elliot, I hope I can trust you; I don't know where else to turn. I think my husband David is having an affair, but just don't know! Do you think you could find something out for me? I can't go on like this!
Elliot: I'll see what I can dig up, Donna, but you may not be happy with what I find out.
Donna: I know. But I don't want to be a fool! I need the truth.
He shared Donna's concern with Anabel and asked if she'd watch Evelyn for a while.
Anabel: Of course. Whatever I can do to help Donna. She really seems upset!
Elliot and Donna went into the office and talked in private, away from the children. Elliot took down all the info Donna could give him.
While Donna waited, Elliot did some research online. Yes, there was some truth to the rumors Donna had been hearing. He even found a birth record of a little girl born to a co-worker of David's. The father's name was not given, but trait and genetic data pointed right to Morgan.
That night, Elliot, Anabel, and Donna went to another party. This time at May West's. Elliot asked a man he trusted, Henry Simovitch, a few subtle questions. If anyone knew the truth, it would be this Genius.
Elliot's suspicions were confirmed. David Morgan and Samantha Cassat had an affair at the same time David's wife was pregnant! Things had cooled down since then, but David was still friendly with Samantha and their child.
Elliot found David Morgan upstairs and introduced himself. Then he got right to the point.
Elliot: Morgan, your wife and daughter spent the night at our house. She was there all day today too. What's going on in your family?
David: What concern is this of yours, Nest?
Elliot: Maybe you didn't hear me. I said your wife has been staying at our place. Your young daughter slept in my son's crib and ate in my son's high chair. Her mother slept in a rocking chair. What part of this picture do you think is NOT my business?
David: I can't control what my wife does!
Elliot: From what I hear, you can't control what you do either.
David: I don't answer to you, Nest! Stay out of this.
Elliot: I'm just letting you know, Morgan. It's all over for you.
David: Are you threatening me?
Elliot: Yes. Yes, I believe I am. Good night. Enjoy it while you can.
The next day, Elliot's (and my) plan was set in motion.
The home of Samantha the Temptress (aka the Tramp) was located across the street from the Morgans'. The little girl was there alone, without toys, crib, or anything else to care for her. That would never do!
For the child's sake, I moved Samantha and her daughter in with David. At least the little girl would then have a crib and other toddler items.
First though, I moved Donna, the three Morgan children, and Sheba their Little Dog over to the Harbucks' home. I made sure there was furniture for Evelyn and items for Sheba. And I immediately used NRaas to have Donna divorce David and become Best Friends with Olivier Harbucks.
The new family members were very happy with the Harbucks' mansion. They spent some time exploring. I made sure Donna had no negative moodlets from the divorce.
Donna got a text from her ex-husband right away. She didn't answer. He was red-barred in her relationship panel!
I also made sure David and Samantha both had a few well-deserved moodlets. David's mood was Depressed. He was suffering from Dumped by Text, Heart Broken, Humiliated, Rejected, and because I found out Donna was a witch...Toadified!
I kept checking on everyone to see how things were playing out. David left work, got "A Bit Juiced," and wandered around town trying to raise his mood meter. I saw that he texted a few other sims, but no one responded.
By the end of the day, he'd gone from Depressed to Sad. Good for him.
Samantha was also missing work, getting A Bit Juiced, and trying to raise her spirits by rowing across town to the Mermaid Resort. I guess she couldn't face David at home either. Too bad.
Samantha was in a stressed mood from having Lost a Friend (now red-barred with Donna), as well as being Humiliated, Strained, Stressed Out, and Germy! (I gave her a cold.)
Wonder if she'll ever feel up to offering David a Toad Kiss to cure him? Both she and David are Great Kissers. Nice foundation for a relationship. Samantha also is Flirty and has Commitment Issues. Good luck to them. They're on their own.
But what about Donna and Olivier? How were they doing? I found them at the diner together.
And they were flirting with each other! I was amazed at how quickly they had moved on to this.
Donna admitted to Olivier that she was a witch.
He didn't seem to mind at all.
Ah, yes. I love it when a plan comes together!
