Vivian and Sebastian witness a beautiful brunette enter in wearing a bodycon dress with platform heels.

'Bree?' Isabella says in shock, 'Where have you been?'

'Sorry, Bella, I was a little occupied earlier. But your dad invited me to dinner with you and Jack and of course, I couldn't refuse,' her squeaky tone informs.

Vivian is getting irritated; she finally grasps what Raymond's first move is. He wants to take Jackson away from her, so he introduces another girl. Vivian would never give him the benefit of the doubt, she smirks at Raymond who shrewdly grins.

The girl strides towards Jackson. Her heels clanking against the floor making her presence known, and she embraces him, 'Sorry, I wasn't here when you called earlier. I had some errands to run, but now I am all free and available,' she says in a sweet tone twirling her hair.

He hugs her back, 'Bree, you never have to apologise. It's totally understandable.'

He then steps back, 'Bree, meet Vee AKA Vivian,' he familiarises the girls and wraps his arm around Vivian's waist. He could see that she is agitated.

'Hi, Vee, it's so nice to meet you. I have heard a lot about you,' Breana fakes a smile and hugs Vivian whilst giving an air kiss.

'It's Vivian,' only her friends call her 'Vee' and this girl is anything but a friend, 'Nice to meet you too, and sadly I haven't heard anything about you,' Vivian insults with a grin.

Breana's face drops, 'Oh well, I am Jackson's closest friend and Isabella's.'

'Who is this fine, young man?' she says gawking Sebastian, her eyes scanning his appearance.

'He is mine and his name is Sebastian,' Isabella answers holding Sebastian's arm.

Breana smiles and holds her hands up, 'You called dibs already, well he's a keeper, Bee, don't lose him.'

'I don't plan on,' Isabella promises, pecking Sebastian's lips.

'So, about dinner?' Raymond pipes in.

'Can Sebastian and Vivian come?' Jackson asks.

Raymond hesitates, he clearly didn't want them to come, thus, Vivian speaks up, 'Actually, Jackson, Sebastian and I have some work to do. You go ahead and enjoy dinner. As your father said, 'he has a lot to make up for',' she kisses Jackson. She then hugs him, 'Plus, you're mine tomorrow.' She whispers in his ear then winks and steps away.

'Shall we go, Jack?' Breana interrupts, holding Jackson's hand and pulling him away. She grabs Isabella as well, 'I am ravenous, let's go.'

Vivian and Sebastian both want to slap this girl, how dare she behave this way. Sebastian gives her a rude look to which she just smiles, 'It was nice meeting you both,' she waves and blows a flying kiss then trots away.

'Can't say the same,' Sebastian whispers towards Vivian.

'Let's all head out,' Richard says, dragging everyone with him. Raymond stays behind to allow Vivian and Sebastian to walk out.

'Raymond one point, Vivian zero,' he whispers as she passes him making sure no one hears.

Vivian pauses and looks at him, 'Don't worry, the numbers are going to change in a few days,' she smirks and exits. There's one disaster that's going to be a major kick to the gut for Raymond. They both head home and enter in to see Nicole watching television.

'You are always watching the tv?' Sebastian exclaims and rolls his eyes.

Nicole exaggerates a gasp, 'Well, it isn't my fault, you don't involve me in your shenanigans.'
