Lane leads Grace into the bedroom, where there was an intense time of love-making. Lane and Grace took a well needed nap before Tanner shows up.

Waking up in plenty of time, Grace ordered drinks and snacks to be served while Tanner is present. Shortly there after there was a knock on the door,

"Come in." When Grace opens the door, her voice drops seeing who it is.

"Sweet Grace, who is it?" Lane calls out concerned,

"It's Dean and Sandra. Please come on in, we weren't expecting you but that's okay." The couple smile at Grace as they walked in,

"Hey Grace. We really need to talk to you guys." Lane walks up to Dean and Sandra hugging them both,

"It's great seeing the two of you. So What's going on? As Grace expressed, we weren't expecting anyone but my partner Tanner Meadows. Please don't leak where we are to anyone. I really need this time with Grace." Lane clasps Dean on the shoulder, as there was a knock on the door. Lane opens the door revealing Tanner and the food cart,

"Hello Lane! I see I came at right time!" Both men laugh as Lane clasps Tanner on the shoulder,

"Yes, come in! We have much to discuss!" Lane leads Tanner to the living area, while Grace brings in the food cart full of drinks and snacks for everyone.

"Love, sit down, you need to be involved with this discussion." Lane turns to Dean and Sandra, as Grace sits down.

"Dean, what's so urgent? For you to inquire where we were, I knew it had to be important." Dean turns to Sandra,

"Sandra, please tell them what you told me." Sandra clears her throat nervously,

"Don't be nervous Sandra. You're safe here." Grace tries to encourage her to proceed,

"I was packing to get ready to come to my new suite, Cassandra came in to pack to move to her new suite. She was way too confident." Grace looks at her curiously,

"in what way?" Sandra squeezes her hand,

"She says the Board of Directors think that it's dangerous for you to stay in Lane's life." Lane's eyes widen,

"What is she saying that the Board of Directors desiring?" Sandra takes a deep breath before continuing,

"That you divorce Grace, keep the baby. Allow her to have visitation with supervision." Grace lets out a huff,
"How am I dangerous? I left my husband Dane because of his family business! I lost my oldest son because of it!" Grace hisses as Lane squeezes her hand,

"Easy now my sweet Grace. Let her finish Love." Grace nods as she tries to calm down her heavy breathing,

"I sense that Cassandra doesn't care what happens with the baby. Lane, she just wants you. She believes that because she doesn't have baggage like Grace has." Lane thinks for a moment,

"Other than wanting me, is there more by chance?" Sandra furrowed her brow,

"I'm not sure. But one thing that is for sure, she's way too confident than she should be." Tanner clears his throat,
"After listening to this conversation, I have a question." Lane looks at him,
"Go ahead. There's a lot that needs to be discussed openly." Tanner takes a legal pad, taking notes.

"Lane, do you still think there's a mole inside your staff." Lane slowly nods,
"if Cassandra is that confident, she might be close to the mole." Tanner rubs his chin,
