Despite getting involved in a casual relationship, Andre and Dani agreed to keep it a secret. Dani confessed that she still had feelings for Bill, but she continued seeing Andre for support. They leaned on each other as Dani struggled with her feelings about Bill, while Andre tried to hide his feelings from Ashley.

In a shocking turn of events, Naomi found herself in the middle of a legal challenge. Three women approached her and requested her legal assistance to sue her father's firm. She faced a moral dilemma, but the thought of going head-to-head against her father, Bill, excited her.

While she struggled to wrap up her new case, she found it tough to strike a balance between her personal and professional lives. Naomi consulted with Jacob, her husband, who already knew about the case against Bill.

He said that he wanted to ensure that his wife was capable enough to pull this off.

Meanwhile on Beyond the Gates, Hayley complained to Bill when she started feeling like an outsider. She told Bill that everyone at the country club ignored her and treated her poorly as if she did not belong to the high society.
