Next day he apologizes but still asks her staff to keep him informed on her movements and decisions. He posts a tweet to discredit Babbish and attempts to get onto a select committee to influence government policy, but Babbish makes sure he is not accepted. The Hoynes present as a happy couple to a journalist interviewing them but genuinely unite after a swimming pool scare with Noah. Aiden's father also urges him not to be vindictive. Dita, the house-keeper, makes a play for Aiden, but he rejects her. Written by don @ minifie-1 See less
