chapter 15

Hilly's plans for Brandi were working like a charm. In the first month of her duties as the official taste tester for Chef Henri's new restaurant chain she gained an additional thirty-five pounds, putting her pretty close to the 240 mark. Even better, Brandi totally embraced becoming a truly FAT woman, thanks to the kind attention and massive feeding of Henri de Tivoli himself. Better still, the feeder chef and his feedee guinea pig had fallen in love. Brandi's burgeoning figure brought out that missing spark in Henri's loins, so to speak. They LIKED each other from the beginning and the combination of like and lust added up to a genuine love match. And all the while Brad had to watch the whole story unfold right under his nose in his own home.

In the meantime, Hilly regained her sense of self-control and self discipline. She knew she'd never be the trim and toned, size two Golden Girl she had once been, but she was absolutely determined that she'd get thin enough to give Brad nothing but fits. And Brad could see it in her eyes, that look of determination she had when she dieted herself down from frowzy and dumpy to stunningly slim. There was no mistaking it. Hilly was on her way to being a normal sized girl and it was driving Brad crazy. The way he looked at it, Hilly was painting a goatee on his Mona Lisa of Corpulence.

As she dieted her way below the three hundred pound mark, Hilly gave some thought to giving Brad a break. After all, by this time Brandi had swollen up to an abundantly large over three hundred pound hippo. And in celebration of her newly acquired zaftig figure, Henri proposed marriage to the ponderous Brandi, a proposal she instantly accepted.

By this point Hilly had lost something over seventy pounds, a weight loss that was becoming more and more apparent with each passing day, and a weight loss that was driving Brad to distraction. Hilly was ALMOST going to let up a bit on Brad when she took a look once more at all the other women whose lives Brad had touched. Two dozen emotionally vulnerable women who Brad had wined and dined and romanced into becoming HIS idea of the ideal female, fat and subservient. Hilly wasn't about to let Brad get away with that. So Hilly launched what shelcalled Operation Retaliation. She was going to extract the ultimate revenge on Brad, a revenge from which he would never be able to escape!
