Secret Part 3, Chapter 23:
At Alexis-Alexis and Valentin were sitting on the couch. "I'm glad you're home. Where is Phillip?" "He's still in London. Our company there had some financial difficulties, and I believe Lorenzo was involved, so Phillip wouldn't get too close to his daughter." "I wouldn't be surprised. He's very controlling." "Yes, he is. I came back for revenge, and I want to help you get it." "With both of us, he wouldn't know what hit him." "No, we're Cassadines." "Yes, we are."
At Skye—Lorenzo was alone with Lila Rae. "Lila Rae, you can call me anytime if you want to come home or talk." "Mother, it's not the end; it's just my beginning." "Yes, it is," Skye said as Cecil came in.
"Why are you here?" Cecil asked. "I wanted to say goodbye to Lila Rae and wish her well. I love you, Lila Rae. I enjoyed our time together." "I have to," Lila Rae said as they shared a hug.
Tracy was in the dining room, getting ready to leave. She felt uncomfortable being where she wasn't wanted when Gabriella came by. "Gabriella, what's new with you? How was Paris?" "It was wonderful. I should have stayed. Grandmother, I need your help." "What is it?" Tracy asked, touched that Gabriella asked for her help.
Skye and Cecil were talking to Lila Rae when Lorenzo entered the room. "Is everything alright?" "Yes, I just came to see Lila Rae. I'll go," Cecil said and left.
"Daddy, I know you're upset with Gabriella, but try to lighten up on her." "I will try," Lorenzo said. "Is Tracy still here?" "Yes."
Tracy and Gabriella were talking. "I will handle it; you can count on me." "Thanks. I know my mother is angry, but she will come around. Family is important to her." "Yes, it is. Gabriella, you need to remember you are a Quartermaine and an heiress," Tracy said as Skye came into the room. "Is everything alright?" "Yes, I was just leaving. Skye, I know it's hard saying goodbye, but Lila Rae will be just fine. You are a great mother." "I try. I never had a great example." "No, you didn't, and I'm sorry. I'm trying." "Today I had an appointment with Dr. Collins. Maybe one day we could go together." "I would like that," Tracy said and left.
"What were you talking about with her?" "We were just chatting. Mother, Lila Rae will be alright." "Yes, I know. I do need to talk to you too," Skye said.
