Victor Buys a New Art Piece

Jana starts her first day as Sabrina's art assistant at the Newman Ranch. She meets Victor and tells him how great she thinks he is. Michael arrives at the Ranch and he and Victor begin to discuss the lawsuit with Jabot. Victor tells Michael he does not want to settle and will do whatever it takes to fight the case.

David gives Nikki a diamond necklace. She is worried about the meeting regarding Jabot's lawsuit.

At the coffeehouse, Kevin is still overwhelmed with customers. Gloria arrives at the coffeehouse, and Kevin asks her where she has been. Gloria is frantic, and tells Kevin she just learned that her diamonds are fake. Jill calls Gloria and demands she come to work, but Gloria says she has a family emergency and hangs up.

At Jabot, Brad notices Nikki's new necklace and inquires about it to David. David tells Brad he is paying him off.

Paul tells J.T. about his visit with Elizabeth. Paul wonders, despite how crazy Elizabeth seems, if her allegations are right about David.

Allistair arrives at the coffeehouse, and greets Gloria cheerfully. Gloria is not pleased to see him. She tells him to take over filling orders for her, and he does.

During a meeting, Jill tells Nikki she should settle the lawsuit against Newman, but Nikki is adamant that she will not settle. Nikki also assigns Victoria and Brad to work together on a Jabot retro project. Neither of them are happy about working with one another, and Jill tries to tell Nikki that Victoria might be of better use on something else, but Nikki doesn't listen. Jill also tries to get Nikki to reconsider settling, but Nikki won't hear of it.

At the Ranch, Victor reiterates to Michael that he will not settle. Michael tells Victor not to mix emotion with business, but Victor is adamant that Michael proceed with the case anyway.

Jana tells Sabrina she thinks it is romantic how much passion she and Victor have for art.

After they win the bidding war, Sabrina, Jana, and Victor celebrate.

Adam wants to help Michael with the lawsuit. They go to the coffeehouse to do some work. When Michael arrives, Gloria and Kevin fill him in on the diamond situation.

David places another bet of $25,000.

Sabrina and Victor talk about their wedding and honeymoon. When Victor asks Sabrina what her dream wedding is, she tells him it doesn't matter where they get married, as long as she has him. Both of them are very anxious to go on their honeymoon.

Adam gives Victor some bad news from the lab about the lawsuit. Victor tells Adam to consult with another lab, until he can find one to give Victor the news he wants.

Michael tells Gloria that he talked to everyone at the bank, and that no one there switched her diamonds. Gloria feels quite hopeless, and Allistair notices. Allistair calls Jeff quietly and tells him he thinks it was a mistake to tell Jeff about Gloria's diamonds, as he thinks Gloria has nothing now. Jeff responds that he doesn't know what Allistair is talking about.

Paul tells J.T. that he talked with the sister of David's first ex-wife. He tells J.T. that the sister is convinced David pushed her over the edge, to commit suicide, but she does not have any proof.

Lily Gets a Career Break

I'm sorry this is late. This is Tuesday's update.

When David and Nikki come into Jabot, Brad and Jill both congratulate them, but secretly have their own agendas. Brade sees the size of Nikki's ring and makes a remark about how that must have set David back. Later, David asks Brad to not make those kinds of comments and tells Brad that Nikki's ring was a family heirloom.

Cane sees Chloe at the coffeehouse and they look through the first issue of Restless Style magazine to find Lily's ads. Chloe doesn't remember anything from last night, but soon has a fuzzy memory of kissing Cane. She asks Cane to not say anything to Lily about what "they did."

At Jabot, Allistair walks in with a disguise so that no one recognizes him. He tells Jill Gloria has a stash of diamonds, but he is not able to provide any more information other than this, and Jill becomes frustrated.

As Jeff is looking for his passport, he and Gloria get into a fight. Just then a fax comes in, which Gloria snatches up in an attempt to keep Jeff from seeing it. He sees that it is from a bank and demands to know what is going on.

David and Nikki exchange gifts. David gives Nikki chips from their wedding, and Nikki gives David a very expensive engraved watch. Later, Nikki and David find out that Brad took over and made some decisions while they were in Mexico getting married and they are angry with him. After the meeting, Brad tells David he is in no position to argue with him.

While Chloe and Lily are talking about Lily's schedule for the day at Jabot, Cane comes over and begins teasing Chloe indirectly about the kiss. Lily is left wondering what is going on, and Chloe has to make up a story to cover. Later, Cane confronts Chloe about the kiss, wondering if it meant more to her than she is letting on. He also tells her if she doesn't clean up her act, she may lose her job at Jabot.

Cane pulls Lily aside to have a moment with her at Jabot before her fitting and test shots. Chloe interrupts, though. After the test shots, Chloe and Lily find Nikki and show the shots to her. Nikki loves the shots and tells Lily she has been doing a good job. Lily credits Chloe for coaching her on what to do, and says she wouldn't know what to do if it weren't for Chloe.

After Gloria leaves the club, Jeff finds the maid and tries to convince her to let him into Gloria's suite. He has a bunch of flowers, and tells the maid he wants to leave them in the suite for his wife when she comes back. The maid tells him it is against policy for her to let him into the room if he doesn't have his key, but eventually she gives in and lets him into the room anyway. Jeff searches the room for the fax, but has no luck finding it. As he is leaving the room, he bumps into Allistair, who tells Jeff he has something on Gloria that Jeff can use.

In a meeting at Jabot, Gloria comes up with an idea, which Jill and Brad don't like, but Nikki supports her.

Cane and Lily talk, and Cane almost tells Lily Chloe kissed her, until he realizes how much Lily depends on Chloe for direction in her modeling career. Cane decides not to tell Lily about the kiss. Meanwhile, Chloe makes plans for her and Lily's future. She pulls some strings and gets an agency interested in Lily's abilities. Lily receives a call telling her an agency is interested in representing her, and that they want to fly her out to New York as soon as possible. She is thrilled.

David tries to convince Nikki to get a joint bank account with him, but she doesn't see any need for one.
