Are we getting previews for the week ahead? Pretty please. Yeah. Previews? Please? Pretty please?? I'm glad you're all enjoying the story. At least, I think you are ... torture, high blood pressure, and all. Speaking of previews ... here’s the scoop. I’ll be at the beach for part of the week next week and I don’t know what kind of signal I’ll get. I’ll try to post a chapter every day (Monday for sure), but I can’t make any guarantees about the rest of the week. That said, here is what’s coming up over the next few chapters (not necessarily in order): Philip and Melanie dine with Victor and Kate Chloe seeks Brady’s help Brady counsels Melanie Philip needs to see Chloe Philip and Chloe discuss Wesley

TITAN HEADQUARTERS Chloe enters Philip’s office and sits down at the chair across from his desk. He sits in the guest chair next to her.Chloe: You said you needed to see me. Here at your office. What’s this about? Philip: I know it seems kind of formal, but it’s about business. I ... there’s been a mistake, Chloe. Chloe: What kind of mistake? Philip: My life insurance policy. Chloe’s eyes fill with tears.Philip: Are you okay? Chloe shakes her head no.Philip: What’s the matter? Chloe: I know your memory is ... isn’t perfect. I know there are things about your past you don’t remember. Philip: That’s what they tell me. Chloe: Do you remember that ... I had a baby? Philip smiles.Philip: No. I don’t remember that. Congratulations. Boy or girl? Chloe: Boy. Philip: What’s his name? Chloe: His given name was Parker, but we changed it to Wesley. Does any of this sound familiar to you? Phililp: No. Sorry, it doesn’t. Chloe reaches in her purse and hesitantly pulls out her iPad and scrolls to a picture. She hands the iPad to Philip. Philip takes it and looks at the screen for a long time before speaking. He rests his forefinger on his lip as he studies the picture.Philip: He’s a beautiful little boy. Chloe: He was. Philip: Was? Chloe: He died. Philip instinctively reaches for Chloe’s hand.Philip: Chloe, I’m so sorry. What happened? Wait, if it’s too difficult to talk about, you don’t have to tell me. Chloe: He died in a fire. Philip: I ... I wish I had been there for you. I don’t remember him, but apparently I knew him. I’m in this photo with him. Chloe: That’s because ... Philip: Oh, because he was my brother-in-law. Of course. That makes sense. Chloe: You were also his ... um ... his godfather. Philip: Ah, now I understand why you were the beneficiary of my life insurance policy. Chloe, this must be so hard on you. When did this happen? Chloe: A few months ago. Just before his first birthday. I really wish you remembered. Philip: I wish I did too. Chloe: You were really crazy about him. Philip: Funny that Melanie hasn’t mentioned her brother at all. But that could explain why she’s so anxious for us to have a baby. I’ll bet this has been rough on your relationship with Daniel. Chloe stares at Philip but does not respond.Chloe: I need to go. I need to leave. She gets up and rushes out the door.To be continued ...

Wow. This is great. Hmmmm I wonder if Philip is going to talk to Daniel about the baby. We still don't know where is the baby. I feel so sorry for Chloe, but she never should have had that ONS (one night stand) with Philip to begin with. I still think that Mel and Philip should be together. Thanks for the chapter Kpatch.

Finally, I got to catch up on this story. It is great! You even managed to give Daniel some lines that made me laugh and you know how I feel about him, so good job! I love seeing Nancy and Craig in this story - even though they are being exceptionally "dastardly" (great word choice by the way) even for them. I feel sad for Chloe too ... but is it really terrible of me that I'm also a little envious of her iPad?
