"What's up?" Tom asked Harry once they were out of earshot and now seated at the patio. "Barry called a short while ago. I'm exhausted and can't think right now, so I need you to help me out." "Okay. Lay it out. What did Barry say?" "He said a couple of things. After having her name on the news, Sara is trying to bring all her plans forward and get rid of Crystal quickly. She called our 'doctor' asking that they meet on Monday for the transplant. She even sent a huge sum of money to show how…-

As Tom and Lucy walked out of the restaurant after their dinner, Tom noticed the way Lucy was looking around as if she was trying to find something, and he raised a brow. "What are you searching for?" He asked curiously. "Uhm, I'm trying to see if I can find a shop to get something for the kids," Lucy said and Tom raised a brow. "Jamal and Dawn?" "Of course. Or do you know any other kids I don't know about? Sonia's bump isn't even out yet," Lucy said distractedly as she continued looking around…

Seeing how Candace continued to side with Dawn without addressing what she had done, Evelyn figured that Candace wanted her to handle that, so she turned to Dawn. "Dawn, you were wrong to do that to Jamal when you weren't sure he wanted to hurt you," Evelyn said sternly, not minding that Dawn was still crying, and buried her face in Candace's bosom as she cried. "For hitting her, you are going to be disciplined," Candace said to Jamal. "They should both be disciplined. Jamal would never have done…

At the Hank residence, while Tom and Lucy were still out on their date, Harry and Jade sat on the balcony upstairs, watching the video of Wilson's public disgrace. "I have to admit this was a perfect idea. He dug his own grave," Jade said with delight as she raised her wine glass in a silent toast to Harry. "Thanks. You know, I thought long and hard about whether or not they should mention Sara's name. When Barry suggested it at first (chapter 674), I was skeptical, but after much thought, I decided…

The moment they stepped into Lucy's room, the first thing Tom noticed was the fact that the room had a similar arrangement and furniture to her bedroom in Ludus. And it was just as organized, too. He also noticed that unlike Jade's bedroom, which looked like that of a high school student, Lucy's bedroom looked more like that of an adult. He could attribute that to the fact that she had lived there as an adult until a few weeks ago. "Aww!" Lucy exclaimed, and Tom looked at her curiously. "What?" Lucy…

Instead of taking a cab, Lucy decided that they walk down to her home since it was only a short distance away from the mall, and since they were both wearing comfortable shoes, there was no need for a cab. While Tom carried the bag containing the clothes they had taken off at the clothes shop with his right hand, he held Lucy's right hand in his left as they walked together. "Do you realize we've never really taken a stroll together?" Lucy asked, and Tom thought about it for a moment. "You are right.…

After the phone call with Crystal, Amos decided to return Wilson's call. "Amos, where are you? Are you not joining us for the interview?" Wilson asked as he tugged on his tie anxiously. Ever since the rumors of him murdering his brother and sister-in-law, and taking away everything from their adopted daughter and abandoning her hit the internet, he had been on heat from all sides, most especially his political party members who were asking him to withdraw from the race. Now that they had gotten…

Crystal paced around her bedroom as she contemplated whether or not she could trust Sara's lawyer and give him a call to confirm if the Will was legit. He has looked like be wanted her to call him, or was it Sara's plan? She mused as she bit the fingernail on her left thumb. Call or not call? She mused, and after a moment she decided that life was all about taking risks, and the bigger the risk, the greater the reward. Although she hadn't anticipated this when she took up the job, but if it was…

Kimberly's brows were pulled together in a worried frown as she paced around her bedroom while thinking about what to do about Desmond's threat. She had no doubt that Desmond had made that call because Tom had told him she was behind the scandal. She had been unable to sleep all night until the early hours of the morning because she had been so worried about not knowing how Dawn was doing, especially now that her plans had been exposed and she didn't know how Lucy would treat Dawn now that she knew…

As Sara and Crystal walked into the living room after she had taken her medication, Amos set aside his glass of wine and rose. "I'm very sorry we kept you waiting," Sara said apologetically while Crystal eyed Amos curiously. From the look of him she could easily tell that he was an attorney, and the fact that Sara had left the room carrying the Will testified to that. She wondered if he was a crook or a decent person. As far as she was concerned, only a crook could act as Sara's lawyer. Why…
