Harry wasn't sure how he was going to face his father or even face all three of them together at the same time. Candace and Tom were annoying enough. His dad would be worse. He could tell they were probably laughing at his expense right now. And the person responsible for it all was hiding here, leaving him to face all the embarrassment alone? No, way! There was no way he would let her hide. He would be damned if he faced that alone. Harry headed for Jade's door and knocked on it, making Jade's heart…

The sight that greeted Candace once Harry opened the door was Jamal holding up a white lace thong. Seeing the shock on her face, Harry, who had been about to say something to her, turned to see the 'hankie' that Jamal had picked up and was displaying, and his eyes widened in surprise. He didn't need anyone to tell him who owned that and had left it in his bedroom--Damn Jade for doing something like this. "Oh-oh! It's not a hankie," Jamal announced as he now held it with the tip of his fingers. "Drop…

Once Harry opened the door, he made a dash for his bedroom with Jamal who had said he wanted to use the restroom, while Tom, Candace, and Aaron followed from behind. In his hurry to get Jamal into the bathroom, Harry missed the thong that was lying on the foot of his bed, and once he opened the bathroom door, he raised a brow when a familiar fragrance hit him. Why did his bathroom smell like Jade? He mused as his eyes moved around, taking note of the moistness in the atmosphere and the wet floor. Did…

"I just can't believe she did this," Janet said in disbelief as she walked out of the police station with Andrew, Desmond, and Evelyn. "Well, if you hadn't messed with her clothes, she wouldn't have done it," Andrew said, and Janet stopped in her tracks and turned to her husband. "Are you defending her? If she didn't mess with my kids, I wouldn't have messed with her clothes! So, don't stand there and talk like you don't know why I did it!" She snapped at her husband, and Evelyn placed a hand on her…

Candace watched Aaron with a smile as he ate the meal she had prepared while Jamal entertained them as usual, asking Aaron questions while telling Aaron more about himself. As Aaron laughed at something Jamal said, he began to choke, and immediately Candace went to stand beside him and patted his back to calm him. "Thank you. I'm okay now," Aaron said with a smile of gratitude, and Candace moved away from him with the dishes. "Your aunt Andy seems like a fun person," Aaron said, and Jamal bobbed his…

"Tom?" Jamal called from the backseat of the car after Tom had driven for some time without saying a word. "Hm?" Tom, who was driving, responded absentmindedly. "Why are you always mad?" Jamal asked reasonably, and his mother, who was in the front seat, turned to cast him a warning glance while Tom scowled at him through the rearview mirror despite his mild amusement at the question. "Who said I'm always mad?" "Me. You are mad all the time," Jamal said, ignoring his mother. "That's not true. I'm not…

Mia and Jeff remained at the dining table, looking down at their food as they both tried to figure out what to do about the situation. They had overheard the exchange between the brothers and had watched as Tom angrily left the Den and headed for the stairs. The atmosphere around the house was awkward. Too awkward. "This wasn't the way I envisaged moving to Ludus or spending my weekend," Mia said with a sigh, and Jeff glanced at her. "Me neither." "You neither? Are you not the reason everything is…

Once Evelyn and Desmond got to the airport, they found a comfortable spot where they could sit until it was time for their flight while also waiting for Andrew and Janet to join them. "Maybe we shouldn't have let Sonia leave on her own. Do you think she will be fine?" Evelyn asked with a worried frown after they had sat in silence for some time since Desmond was busy on his phone. "Of course, she will be okay. Lucy would arrive in a couple of hours to cheer her up. Although she is hurt, don't forget that…

Candace sat on the bed as she watched Jamal dress up in readiness for Tom to drive them to the hospital when he gets back. "Jam?" "Hm?" he asked distractedly, and Candace smiled at how adult-like he sounded. "Why are you so silent? What are you thinking about?" she asked, and he gazed at her. "I was just wondering if grandpa Aaron is okay. Do you think I should hold his hands again when we get to the hospital?" Jamal asked, and Candace smiled. "You seem to care about him a lot." "Yes, I do," Jamal…

Tom was seated beside Lucy in Priscilla's office, and he had a contemplating look in his eyes as he tapped his forefinger on the desk thoughtfully. "Ace?" Lucy called softly since they were all waiting for him to speak. They had just listened in on Priscilla's phone call with Rebekah, and they all wanted to know if Tom had any counterplan in mind. "Go on and do what she asked you to do," Tom told Priscilla. Priscilla exchanged a look with Maya before looking at Tom, "Are you sure you want me to do…
