Samuel happy welcome DRF to Sebastian family. He introduce new VP of Public Integrity, Scott. Tay ask Tess if Scott just quit his job for her? Tess can’t get hopes up. Scott explain new contract, he’d fixed all the issues Tess had. Contracts

Sebastian center. Tay who had dr appointment is there cuz driver dropped her off there. Tess/Tay know Kendra up to something. Tess know need block Scott but texts were only thing kept her going sometimes, get glimpse into his life. After sign contract today, she will block him & delete all texts he sent so she can move on. Tess don’t recognize people in signing, plus where Brett & Scott? Kendra explain negotiations

Tess b all she could, she’d outshine Kendra. Kendra want Tess b partner, do like she did w/Sebastian deal, keep 80% of negotiated salary, other 20% go to hire assistant. B while til she can afford buy in but won’t take long. Tess want season opera tickets & it’s deal. DRF sponsorship take 18 months, 18 months til Scott can break up w/Kendra. After sign today, Tess won’t have see Scott. Kendra/Tess go to

walk out door he’ll never b welcome in board room again, won’t b welcome at home either, life as he know it b over. Scott excited when leave room cuz life he wanted just begun. Tess go Kendra’s place, Kendra not wearing ring. Kendra kept Tess in position had cuz Tess knew everything Kendra liked, was loyal, liked have her to herself, liked she wasn’t elitist snob she deal w/daily, like Tess real. Cuz knew if

thing discuss is sponsorship w/DRF. Scott suggest have Brett take over his old position, will b liaison for any sponsorships. Board agree Brett b his replacement. Scott say w/that settled he quits. Dad furious. Scott put ring on resignation letter, say he not marry Kendra Montgomery either. Dad say no way DRF sponsorship b signed. Scott say DRF found another sponsor w/less drama at helm. Scott begin leave, dad say he

she hadn’t answer single one. He saw she read all of them, so begin text daily one sided conversation about how day was, how much miss her, how much love her. Made him feel close to her, sometimes notification she read text only thing kept him going. He need do this b man he want b for her. In mtg dad say Scott move to VP Communications. Scott know not promotion, lateral move but dad fulfill his end bargain. 1st

Tess want stay in bed but w/Tay in same situation Tess won’t let Tay stay depressed. Tess say they have choose themselves. Kendra choosing parents opinion over Tay & Scott choosing let parents control his life over b w/her. Need choose love themselves most even if they don’t. They both agree. Brett give Scott all info he requested, wish Scott good luck talk w/board. Been 4 weeks since saw Tess, he text/call but

w/Kendra. Tess realize Kendra said she left to try decide btwn 2 people & she chose Scott over Tay cuz her parents wouldn’t understand her b w/black disabled woman. Tess sad Tay kept her in dark. While Tess away at parents, Tay spent time w/Kendra who apologize, explain had pretend b engaged for sake DRF. Kendra say after that she promise they b together & she tell her parents.
