The Calimo Mansion

"Natasha is already at the office," Robbie tells Kim as he moves into the living room of the Calimo mansion and sees her pouring herself a cup of coffee. Robbie knows that his sister went into Roboto early today so they can continue to try to figure out how Roboto lost millions of its money, although he does think that Kim's theory that it was Dominick makes the most sense. "She wanted to have a call with corporate security to see if they could uncover who was able to access the Roboto bank accounts."

Kim slowly takes a sip of her coffee. "I still have a feeling this was Dominick's doing," she replies to him. "It makes complete sense that he would try to get back at me for hiring Will to seduce Eva. He's firing on all cylinders right now."

"It does make sense," Robbie admits to her. "I just wonder how he pulled that off so quickly?"

"He's ruthless," Kim tells him. "He has always hated Bob and this entire family. This is just another way for him to try to destroy us, but you know what? I won't let him. He won't get away with this!"

"You're so feisty," he chuckles to her as he moves up to her. "I find it kind of sexy, if I'm honest."

Kim smiles back to him. "I was meaning to tell you this yesterday," she looks back into his eyes. "I told Greg that he and I are over because I'm drawn to you."

"You did?"

"Yup," Kim nods back to him. "I can't explain this thing between us but I can feel it and I know you can too."

Robbie leans in and kisses her passionately. "I'm so glad that you told him that," Robbie tells her as lust fill in her eyes. "We have some time now, do you want to go upstairs?"

Kim chuckles back to him. "I don't think we should rush this," she says back to him. "Besides, I have to find Dominick. I can't let him get away with this, but we will pick this up again, you can count on that."

Robertson Enterprises

"And, you are positive that Eva was telling the truth about the missing money?" Tyler asks his father as he moves to the bar in the office and pours himself a cup of water. Tyler can't believe the story that his father just told him: over 3 million dollars from an offshore account of Robertson Enterprises is missing, and no one has an explanation of where it went. Dominick, immediately, assumed that Eva was behind it because of their marital problems that they have been going through since her affair with Will was exposed.

"I could tell be the look in her eyes that she meant what she was saying," Dominick uneasily nods back to him. "The good news is that my wife didn't steal from me. The bad news is that I have no idea who the hell did steal from me or how anyone would have had access to my accounts. This is a nightmare son."

"There must be some way that we can figure this out," Tyler replies to him before he takes a sip of his water. "Can we get the police involved?"

"Yes, we can definitely do that," Dominick says back to him. "I want to do my own internal investigation first. That way we can go to the police with anything we've uncovered."

"I hear what you're saying Dad," Tyler tells him. "But, I think the longer we hold off on going to the police, the longer the thief is able to hide the funds. I think we should call Simona Lopez now and see what she has to say."

Dominick sighs realizing that Tyler does make sense. "Fine, very well," Dominick goes to pick up his phone. "I'll call Simona and see what she has to say for herself."

The Pampa Grill

"I've had my own issues in the past with Melissa's meddling, but this is certainly the worst thing she has ever pulled," a stunned Robin tells Nicholas as they sit together in the restaurant having breakfast together. Nicholas just filled in his sister on Melissa's wicked scheme to gaslight Andy into thinking he was seeing Reese when in fact it was a Reese doppelgänger that Melissa hired. Of course, Robin has had her own experiences with Melissa meddling into her relationships, most notably with Cory when she got Rebecca to seduce Cory and then fake a pregnancy for months.

"I still can't believe that she would be so cruel," Nicholas takes a sip of his coffee. "I mean, she made Andy think he was being haunted by his dead husband! Who does that?"

"Melissa has always had it in her head that she can try to control whom her children are in a relationship with," Robin tells him. "I don't know where she gets these ideas but they are sick and twisted. Look at what she did with Cory and I with Rebecca and Caroline's help."

"I know," Nicholas shakes his head back to her. "I guess I never experienced it until now. Thank God Andy didn't actually hurt himself. He was so close to shooting himself though, I don't know what I would have done if I learned the truth and Andy was seriously hurt."

"You will never have to find out," Robin reaches over and grabs his hand in support. "The truth is out, you've moved out of Melissa's mansion and Andy is in rehab getting healthy. You two will be able to move past this, Nicholas, I believe that."

"I hope you're right," Nicholas tells her. "I just hope that Andy is able to forgive me for everything that Melissa put him through. If Andy's family did anything like that to me, I'm not sure I'd be so understanding."

"You're not to blame for Melissa's actions," Robin reminds him. "Remember that, okay?"

Nicholas uneasily nods back to her. "I think I'll feel better once Andy is home again. Then we can talk and try to move beyond this nightmare."

The Black House; Helen, Adam & Dawn's Home

"I don't think we should wake your father up," Helen tells Dawn as she moves to the dining room table with a plate full of waffles that she made for breakfast. "The more rest he has, the sooner he can recover."

"I couldn't agree with you more," Dawn replies to her as she grabs a couple of waffles and puts them on her plate. "These look great, thanks Mom."

"Of course," Helen smiles back to her as she sits across from her daughter. "So, what are you going to do with your day?"

Dawn takes a bite of her breakfast before she looks back at her mother. "I'm going to take a walk on the pier to clear my head," she reveals to her. "I have a lot on my mind that I need to sort out."

Helen arches her eyebrow. "A walk on the pier in October? It might be chilly, be sure to dress warm."

"I will, I will."

"What's on your mind? Anything you want to talk about?" Helen asks her before she takes a sip of her coffee.

Dawn puts her fork down and looks over at her mother for a moment. "It's about Cheresa," she reveals to her. "She admitted that she still has feelings for me."

"That's a good thing, isn't it? I know you never got over her?"

"It was a good thing," Dawn nods back to her. "Until she confessed a secret to me that I had to know before we got back together."

"A secret? What kind of secret are we talking about?" Helen asks her daughter.

"She slept with Shelley," Dawn reveals to her. "Cheresa and Shelley had an affair. And before you say anything, I know that Cheresa and I were technically not together at the time but it still hurts like hell."

"Of course it does," Helen sets her coffee cup down. "I can see why you're conflicted, the two people you care about most in the world betrayed you in some capacity. Its okay to feel hurt, Dawn. I think it's important to remember that people will always make mistakes and we can't hold it against them forever. If we did, Cheresa wouldn't have admitted to still loving you. I know the mistakes aren't the same, but in both circumstances, a trust was broken. It's up to you if you're going to let that trust remain broken or if you think you can heal from this."

Dawn uneasily nods back to her mother. "That's exactly why I need to clear my head," she tells her mother. "I need to figure out if I can put this behind us or if this is truly the end of Cheresa and I."

The Sugarbowl

"I am so sorry that Dawn showed up at your place and told you that you aren't friends anymore," Cheresa looks over at Shelley as they sit across from one another in the back booth of the coffeehouse. Shelley just finished telling her friend that Dawn showed up on her doorstep and lashed out at her for sleeping with Cheresa; the encounter ended by Dawn telling Shelley that they were no longer friends. Shelley couldn't believe that Dawn was taking it so personally and that Cheresa even told her the truth since they had agreed to keep it a secret.

"I have never seen her so upset before," Shelley replies to her quickly. "What made you tell her the truth anyways? I thought we had agreed to keep it between us?"

"I know," Cheresa nods back to her. "This is all my fault. Dawn and I started talking and before you know it we admitted that we still cared for each other," Cheresa explains to her. "She asked me if that meant that we were going to get back together. Before I could actually do that, I had to be completely honest with her Shelley. I couldn't get back into a relationship with a secret hanging over my head, and so, I just blurted it out."

"That must have been hard for you."

"I didn't tell her at first who I slept with," Cheresa continues to explain. "But she wouldn't stop pressing me until I told her the truth. I haven't been able to get the look on her face out of my mind, she was stunned and horrified."

"Just when you two are getting back together, this had to explode again," Shelley rolls her eyes back to her friend. "Have you heard from Dawn since?"

"No," Cheresa shakes her head back. "And, I won't reach out, I want to give her some space but I can tell you one thing that I know for certain, I will make this right. I won't allow our affair to come between Dawn and I, or our friendship with you."

"What are you going to do?" Shelley asks her.

"I haven't figured that out yet," Cheresa replies to her. "But, I can't let this be the end of Dawn and I. I refuse to allow that to happen."

***

Cassie moves into the coffeehouse with a smile on her face. The last few days have gone very well for her and she is still riding a high from it all. She recalls how she was able to get Jacob back into her bed and once he remembers the night, she is positive that he will leave Paige and reunite with her. And, of course, her plan to get back at the Calimo's and Robertson's is working perfectly as both companies have realized that there is money missing from their accounts. Cassie, of course, has carefully placed the money so no one will ever know where the money came from.

She grabs her latte from the barista and is about to leave when she sees Paige sitting at the window bar by herself. She looks at the younger woman for a moment and wonders how she will react when she finds out that Jacob slept with her recently.

"Paige, good morning," Cassie purses her lips together as she approaches the younger woman. "I heard congratulations are in order for you and Jacob?"

"They are," Paige replies to her as she flashes her diamond ring at her. "Thank you, Cassie."

"Pretty ring," Cassie says back to her. "The diamond Jacob gave me when we were engaged was bigger, but size isn't everything."

"You've said you're congratulations, you can carry on with your day now," Paige returns her focus to her phone.

"I hope the wedding happens," Cassie tells her. "But I have a feeling that it won't."

"Why would you say that?"

"Because," Cassie replies to her quickly. "The other night Jacob was at my apartment and we caught up in ways that we hadn't in months."

Paige feels the blood drain from her face. She quickly turns to face Cassie again and glares at her. "What is that supposed to mean?"

"You're a clever woman," Cassie winks back to her. "I'll let you figure it out. Ta, ta! Have a nice day," she laughs as she rushes away from Paige, who is left reeling from Cassie's comments.

She arches her eyebrow as she watches Cassie leave the coffeehouse. "What are you talking about?" she asks herself as worry creeps into her mind. "Jacob wouldn't have slept with you again, would have he?"

The Lawson Estate; Greg, Brooke, Brad, Abby & Cheresa's Home

"Are you getting settled in okay?" Andrew asks Abby as he moves into the living room of her lavish family home. He knew that Abby was discharged from the hospital and wanted to come and check in on her to see how she is doing, and to see if she was still going to keep their child after all, since they had been planning to give it up for adoption after she gave birth.

"Yea, I am fine," Abby replies to him as she sits on the sofa, which exposes her large belly even more. "My Mom came home, which is nice. I'm so glad to have her back."

"I had no idea Brooke was back in town," he admits to her.

"She came once she heard about my fall," Abby reveals to him. "It is nice to have her home, she belongs here."

"I'm glad you have more support," Andrew says back to her. "How are you feeling about the baby? Are you still thinking that you want to raise the child and not give it up for adoption?"

"I am," Abby tells him firmly. "I told you in the hospital that I wasn't going to change my mind."

"I know," Andrew uneasily nods back to her. "I guess I just thought that after you had some time to reflect you'd might change your mind again, that's all."

"No Andrew," she replies to him. "I'm going to keep my baby, that's final."

He sighs and moves closer to her. "I wish that you'd stay with our original plan," he tells her. "I'm still on board for giving this child up for adoption. Giving him or her to a home that wants to have a child right now."

Abby looks back at him in surprise and wonders if she should tell him that Max is really the father of her baby; for months, she has lied to everyone in hopes of getting together with Andrew. However, he has made it perfectly clear that he only thinks of her as a friend and he doesn't want to be a father to the baby.

"I know you don't," she quickly tells him. "And that's why I told you that I will raise this child on my own without your help. God, look at my parents, I certainly don't need your help financially. Frankly, I'm beginning to think that this child would be better off without you."

Andrew sighs back to her. "I will respect your decision," he says back to her. "I think the least you can do is also respect mine."

"You can leave now Andrew," Abby hisses back to him. "We will never see eye to eye on this, so there's no point in trying to beat a dead horse."

Andrew slowly stands up from the arm chair that he was sitting in and starts to leave the living room. He turns back to face Abby one final time. "For the record Abby," he looks at her. "I'm not some cold blooded monster. I'm trying to do what I think is best for the child and I think that is what any good father would do."

Once Andrew leaves the room, Abby feels her eyes swell with water so she covers her mouth to prevent herself from gasping out. A single tear falls down her cheek as she realizes that she has to, somehow, move on from Andrew. She just doesn't know how since she has been in love with him for years.

Robertson Enterprises

"Put that damn phone down, we have to talk," Kim barges into Dominick's office at Robertson Enterprises, just as he was dialing to speak to Simona about the missing money from his company. Kim glares at Dominick and then over at Tyler as she puts her hand on her hips. "I know what you've done, and you're going to give me back Roboto's funds now."

"Excuse me?" Dominick asks her in shock as he hangs up the phone and looks back at her. "I think I'm the one who has ever reason to be livid with you, Kim! You, after all, hired a man to seduce my wife!"

Kim rolls her eyes back to him. "Yes, I did," she proudly replies to him. "But, that plan wouldn't have worked if Eva was happy at home. And, just because I hired Will doesn't give you the right to break into Roboto and steal our money! You could go to jail for a very long time, Dominick!"

"I don't know what you're babbling about," Dominick waves his hand back to her. "But, you're crazy if you think I took anything from Roboto."

"Stop fighting and listen to yourselves," Tyler interrupts them. "Dad, Kim just said that Roboto has missing capital. Kim, we just found out that Robertson also has some missing money, from very secretive accounts."

Kim starts laughing back at him. "You don't expect me to believe that someone stole from both companies, do you? This is a cover up Tyler, only I would expect that from Dominick but not you!"

"It's the truth," Dominick softly tells her. "I have the email to prove it to you, if you want to see it. We are out around 3 million."

Kim looks back at him in shock. "You mean it's true?" she asks him as they both nod to her. "Jesus, we are out around 5 million. Who the hell would do this?"

Tyler suddenly recalls a conversation with Felicia where she told him that she saw Cassie leaving Dominick's office months ago. They were concerned that Dominick was involved with Cassie somehow, even though he covered with a story that Cassie was there to see Jacob. With everything going down though, he can't help but wonder what else is going on here."

"I think I know who is responsible," Tyler reveals to them. "I think I know who did this."

"Who? Who do you suspect son?" Dominick asks him back urgently.

"Cassie Nova," Tyler replies to them as Dominick and Kim look back in shock and horror. "I think Cassie stole the money from both companies."
