In my current save, Jacques's wife was named Celeste Bachelor-Villareal and was the sister of Bella Goth. Jacques's criminal endeavours began to spill over into his psrsonal life and Celeste began feeling like she was being watched. Jacques has a lot of enemies in the criminal world, two of which are Victor Feng and Nancy Landgraab. Victor is a corrupt mayor who uses criminals to do his dirty work and eliminate threats to his power. Victor wanted to place a corrupt person with close ties to him in power as Mayor of Windenburg, but Celeste occupied that position. Nancy Landgraab was sent to remove her... and the rest is history. Malcolm and Luna happen to be dating and neither of them know who is responsible for the death of Celeste.I imagine if they ever found out it would a take a toll on their relationship...
Interesting. I always think of Nancy Langraab as horrible person. I have no idea why. She just is. I like how you have tied her and Jacque's storylines together.

Me too. In all my saves Johnny Zest is her son and I imagine that it was her idea to disown him and Geoffrey just went along with it.

She has one of those faces that's a little more than resting b-face. She just looks wicked. Her description for TS3 doesn't help either:
"Obsessively focused on her job, social status, and appearance, Nancy is sadly left with little time for her husband and young son, Malcolm."
@citysimmer @mika glad I am not the only one. I suppose it doesn't help that I made her over to look her age. I imagine her in her mid 40's with a list of sins miles long.
Now I am going to have to play the Villareal's just to get a feel for the family.
In my game Ms Villareal died in a fire contained to the basement of their house. No one but Max knows the truth surrounding her death. The truth that Jacques started the fire while she was down there leaving her to burn up. Witnessing that event contributed to Max becoming an evil little child and it drove Jacques truly insane.
That's an awesome story!! In my game, Bella was the secret mom. But she wanted to marry Mortimer, so Jacques just said she was dead. Then he married Mila Munch and all the kids were happy. Until Katrina Calliente killed Mila and married Jacques for his money. Katrina was an evil step-mother to all.
Max became a vampire, and turned his best friend/half Alexander Goth into a vampire. Max is fun and loves being a vampire, Alexander is a moody vampire. Max also forced Katrina to sit and watch as he turned her daughter Dina into a vampire. Dina enjoys being a vampire, dating Alexander and is focusing on strength. Max (family vampire aspiration to make up for the fact he didn't have a happy childhood) turned Luna into a vampire. Luna focuses on being attractive and is dating Caleb.
Nancy is in the mob with Jaques, Malcolm and Hugo.
Lucas Munch is living on a hippie commune with Elsa, learning about plants while trying to bring his mom back from the dead. The hippie commune is that little area that came with Get to Work.

That's great I always turn that area into a a retirement community, I may have to try a different direction in another save.
The household description only says that she disappeared under mysterious circumstances, but given that Jacques is in the criminal career, dastardly and erratic, I kinda got the vibe that maybe she was the victim of something criminal. But who knows? It doesn't actually say she died...
I recently made a new sim, who marries rich men and then gets rid of them. One of them was Jacques. But, I happened to know his children so my sim blamed his death to his evil career. Perhaps the same thing happened to Mrs. Villareal, with the only difference that she payed for her husband's poor career decisions. Whoops?
@citysimmer I love how you incorporated Victor and Nancy in the story. I also love the other backstories here - it's interesting to see how everyone has a different take on it.
Anyway, I incorporated Jacques' wife in my Halloween story about a spooky sanatorium on a remote island. I'll put it under a spoiler (it is kind of a sad story, so don't say I didn't warn you) -
Colette Villareal https://66.media.tumblr.com/b122f1e19f794a7dc50f5f2e09ddde8c/tumblr_pgyo0kTs4F1v8k7elo1_1280.jpg Everyone knows she disappeared under mysterious circumstances and everyone always assumes she was killed by her husband. But this is not true. Whether it was an insult upon injury or maybe Jacques felt some kind of pity, he sent his wife to be locked away at the Sanatorium. https://66.media.tumblr.com/d5a9d9542ade943be4fe6cfac22b6f87/tumblr_pgyo0kTs4F1v8k7elo2_1280.jpg Once she was the stunning prize-wife and partner-in-crime of mob boss Jacques Villareal. After she had children and thus provided Jacques with an appropriate heir to take over his crime empire (the evil has always been strong in little Max), Colette had done her duty. Jacques would have kept her as someone to raise his children, but Colette kept interfering in his business plans. So he decided she needed to go. He told everyone she died in a fire. While Colette in fact, almost died from smoke inhalation, the actual fire never touched her. https://66.media.tumblr.com/f16b60f891e449ca7c22dfa69fe59306/tumblr_pgyo0kTs4F1v8k7elo4_1280.jpg Colette spent a considerable time in a coma, and was found to suffer from severe amnesia when she woke up. After a while the doctors gave up hope of any noticable improvement and transferred her to the Saberhagen Sanatorium (no doubt bribed by Jacques). https://66.media.tumblr.com/c0e9c70caaf974c6817b9778460d50a0/tumblr_pgyo0kTs4F1v8k7elo3_1280.jpg While Colette does not remember much from her past life, she has vivid recollections of having children. She does not remember their names, but she does have endless conversations with them and writes about them in her diary. https://66.media.tumblr.com/e15ab911d27177d6c868296ef652fc0c/tumblr_pgyo0kTs4F1v8k7elo5_1280.jpg Her short-term memory also never fully returned and it often causes Colette to get lost, luckily, she never wanders off the island, so there’s always someone that finds her. She also often “borrows” things and forgets to return them. One odd thing though, Colette seems to be particularly drawn to fire, but so far no incidents have happened.
