Roboto Natasha stands
in the middle of the office at Roboto looking at Jacob and Isabelle, who are back
at work for their first day. Natasha couldn't be more pleased that her son, and
his wife, agreed to return to the company because she has longed for her entire
family to run the family business. In her mind, this is exactly what Bob would
have wanted, despite his death so many years ago. "So, as you both
know," Natasha begins to explain to them. "Roboto has been working very
closely with Rockwell Mining to work on this project," she tells them as
she passes them a file folder. "We are calling it Pink Roses; Rockwell will
secure pink diamonds and carve them into the shape of Roses." "Wow,
these images are stunning," Isabelle tells Natasha as she looks at the images
of the diamonds. "And these diamonds are so big!" Natasha chuckles
back to her. "Yes, they are," she agrees with her. "The idea is
that we will have a crown created for our lead model at the launch party, and
then it will tie into the Pink rose perfume ad." "This all sounds
incredible, Mom," Jacob smiles back to her. "How do you want us to fit
into all of this?" "I thought you'd never ask," Natasha
chuckles back to them. "Isabelle, with your experience modelling, I'd like
you to be the lead model." "Me?" Isabelle gasps back to
her. "I mean, yes, I'd love too. I'm actually very excited about the idea
of wearing these diamonds!" "I figured as much," Natasha
tells her. "And Jacob, darling, I want you to be involved with the marketing
of this project. It has to be huge because it is not often that a cosmetics company
has paired with a diamond mining company; the publicity could be epic with this
launch." "I will make this launch the talk of the world for
many, many years to come," Jacob looks back at her. "That's
exactly what I wanted to hear," Natasha grins back to her son. ***
Meanwhile,
in the breakroom, Sophie opens the small fridge and pulls out a bottle of water
before she turns back and sees Max sitting at the table. She asked him to join
her on her break because she wanted to fill him in on her latest news as she agreed
to try to help him figure out the connection between Isabelle's miscarriage and
Cassie leaving town. "I had a chat with Isabelle last night at the
mansion," she reveals to the man that she is crushing on as she sits across
from him. "You did, huh?" Max grins back to her. "Did you
ask her some questions so I can piece together why my Mom left town?"
"I did," Sophie nods. "I asked her what happened the night
of the fall." "And? What did she say?" Max asks her, hoping
that Sophie was able to get more information from Isabelle. "I'm
afraid not much," Sophie responds to him. "She was pretty evasive."
Max sighs back to her. "I was worried about that," he admits to
her. "She told me that they fought, and she tried to leave and that's when
she fell." "Basically, the same story she gave me," Sophie
tells him. "I
I don't know, Max, I get the feeling there is more to
this story. And I promise you, I'm not going to give up on this. I will help you
get to the bottom of this." The Pink Flamingo at the River Rock
Casino
Lukas moves into the restaurant hoping to grab some food before
he heads to the gym. He has decided to dedicate the day to himself so he can try
to come up with a new plan of attack in his quest to save his marriage to Donovan.
After they worked so well together to save Olly from Jasper in Mexico, he had
hoped that they would be able to reunite. He even planned a romantic dinner for
him and Donovan, but Donovan said he was out with a friend. Lukas was further
upset to learn that the friend was Sergio, the man that he saw his husband have
chemistry with while they were in Mexico. He turns and freezes when he
sees Donovan and Sergio at another table together. He sighs and shakes his head
in disgust. "I guess they are seeing a lot of one another," he tells
himself. "Maybe I have lost Donovan for good this time?" Meanwhile
at the table, Donovan and Sergio share a chuckle with one another as they laugh
at a joke. "This is nice," Donovan tells Sergio. "I didn't
think I'd see you again so soon after our dinner date." "I hope
this is a good thing?" Sergio asks him. "You know it is,"
Donovan says back to him. "I really enjoy your company." "Good,
because I enjoy your company too," Sergio admits to him. "And there
is something that I want to do, that I didn't get to do on our dinner date."
Donovan arches his eyebrow back to him. "Alright? What's that?"
Sergio leans across the table and kisses Donovan on the lips. When they part,
Donovan smiles back to him. "Yea, you can do that any time you want,"
he winks back to him, as Lukas stands fuming having witnessed the kiss between
the two men. The Cemetery Greg slowly moves up to the
tombstone that rests in the cemetery. Once he reaches it, he bends down and lays
some red roses at the base. He reads the name that is carved into the marble,
"Bradley Lawson", and takes a deep breath as he, still, has a hard time
believing that his son is gone. It's been a few years since his death, but there's
not a day that goes by that he doesn't think about Brad. The fact that his mother,
Brooke, killed him, is still a very hard pill to swallow. "It's been
far too long since I was here son," Greg whispers to the tombstone as he
feels his eyes swell with water. "So much has happened since you were taken
from us. And my goodness, you should see BJ; he is getting so big, and he has,"
he pauses as he chokes on his words. "He has your eyes." He
puts his head down while he tries to control himself for a moment. "The truth
is, Brad, my life is a complete mess right now and I wish, my God, I wish you
were here. Despite me being your father, you always gave me such great advice."
He pauses, again, while he thinks about how he and Kim were engaged when she
was shot last year. Robbie wanted to marry her on her deathbed because that's
what he believed Kim would have wanted. Greg agreed, thinking that Kim was going
to die. Instead, she lived and, since, she and Robbie have decided to make their
marriage work. He feels like such a fool for thinking that Kim loved him and that
she would want to come back to him after she lived. "I'm in such
pain, Brad," he starts speaking again. "And I feel like I'm close to
spiraling out of complete control. And God help me in getting over this because
I'm not sure I can or will." Tyler's Townhouse "I
must admit, I was rather surprised to get a text from you after we saw each other
this morning at the Pink Flamingo," Madeline tells Tyler as she moves into
the living room of his townhouse. Madeline can't help but smile at the recollection
of her kissing Tyler when they saw each other earlier; she enjoyed the kiss but
also knows that she could use Tyler in her quest to get revenge on Robbie and
Kim. Tyler chuckles back to her as they face one another. "To be
honest with you, I haven't been able to stop thinking about that kiss that you
gave me," he reveals to her. "It was unexpected but in the best way
possible." Madeline giggles back to him. "That's interesting
that you say that." "It is? How so?" "Because
I haven't been able to thin about anything else either," Madeline admits
to him. "You're a good kisser, Tyler." He moves closer to her
and caresses her face. "Then I suggest we do it again," he says as he
licks his lips and leans into her, their lips touching and the kiss quickly becomes
more passionate. When their lips pause, they look into each other's eyes.
"I
" she starts to tell him. "I don't want you to stop."
"Are you sure about this? We are moving pretty fast," he chuckles
to her. "We are two single people," she reminds him. "So.,
let's just do what single adults do," she purrs back to him as she starts
to unbutton her blouse, revealing her bra. "Unless you don't want too?"
He kisses her passionately again and moves her into his muscular arms. "I
definitely want too," he tells her as he starts to take her to his bedroom.
Dominick's Townhouse
"I almost can't believe this story,"
Dominick says as he sits on the sofa in the living room of his house, while Abby,
Eva and Ethan hover around him. Dominick just learned that Ethan, and Bryce, are
his grandchildren and that Bryce is, in fact, Noah. "I have two more grandchildren,
one that I thought was lost to us forever." "My head is also
still spinning," Ethan admits to his grandfather, before he looks over at
Abby. He arrived at the house earlier to check in on her, and he hasn't been able
to forget seeing her and Dominick kiss. Just a few days ago, he and Abby were
sharing a kiss, so he is feeling like he has no idea where they stand right now.
"My entire life has really been turned upside down." "Leah
and Jeff are also reeling," Eva looks over at Dominick. "But listen,
darling, we don't want to overwhelm you with all of these details. You're still
recovering, and I don't want anything to get in the way of your recovery."
"I'm fine," Dominick waves his hand in the air. "Especially
since Abby is with me. My beautiful Abby." Abby smiles back to him
as Ethan looks at her before looking at Dominick. "I am here, and I will
not leave your side." "I've made a decision," Dominick
suddenly announces to the room. "I want to remarry you, Abby. Eva told me
that our marriage isn't legal because she didn't die; before that happened, however,
I had filed for divorce because of your affair with Will," he looks at his
wife. "I want those papers filed so I can marry Abby, the woman that I want
as my wife." Ethan and Eva look at one another uneasily as they are
both stunned by Dominick's revelation. "I guess the question is, Abby, will
you marry me, again?" The Victors Mansion
Frederick
stands in the living room of the Victors mansion and pours two bourbons at the
bar. He, then, passes one to Bryce, who has returned to discuss Frederick's plan.
While, at first, Bryce was hesitant to help his grandfather, he has decided that
he has to go through with it because he can't let anyone know that he arranged
the baby switch all those years ago, especially because Victoria has just decided
to give their marriage another chance. "You came back, so I am assuming
that this means you've decided to help me carry out my plans," Frederick
smiles to his grandson while he takes a sip of his drink. "You didn't
give me much of a choice," Bryce huffs back to him. "I can't risk my
marriage to Victoria, and I don't think she would be able to forgive me for that
damn baby switch that Vinny arranged years ago." "You're making
the right decision," Frederick nods back to him. "You're my family,
you should want to help me succeed." Bryce rolls his eyes back to
him. "Tell me, what exactly do you want me to do in this plan of yours?"
Frederick chuckles back to him. "I want you to get ordained," Frederick
reveals to him. "I want you to be able to marry two people." Next
