Lily is sorry about what Chelsea is going through with Connor. He says he’s playing nice with Adam.
It means a lot to him that they can sit there and talk like friends.
She admits she doesn’t trust him professionally. That seems harsh to him.
Lily reminds him of his suggestion that they run the company as partners. The truth is they don’t agree on anything.

How long before he pushes her down in his relentless drive for power?
He claims he is not playing games and has been open and honest.
Lily has been through a lot and needs to exercise caution.
At the board meeting this afternoon, she will urge them to clarify his powers and remove him from being an officer at the company.
He thinks that’s a bold move and insists he’s never tried to replace her.
She thinks that his role just needs to be defined and he suggests that they are good together.
Lily thinks they should hash all this out at the meeting. Billy asks if she thinks her family will protect her.
He reminds her that Mamie out for herself and revenge and Devon doesn’t like working with anyone.
He’s the smart bet for her and he doesn’t know why she doesn’t see that.
Abby arrives at the Chancellor-Winters office, happy to see that Nate and Devon are working well together.
Nate leaves to make a call and Devon asks him to come back in half an hour. Abby realizes that’s when the board meeting is starting and wonders what he’s up to.
Billy and Lily arrive. Nate joins them and Jill joins by videochat.
Lily and Billy are shocked when Devon suddenly announces he wants Nate re-appointed to the board.
Lily wishes her brother had talked to this with her. Abby knew about it but Nate didn’t.
Devon says that this is what Neil wanted and he thinks Nate earned his spot. Billy thinks springing this on them is shady.
He asks if this is payback for him getting a place on the board. Devon insists this is about what Neil wanted and Nate earned it.
They vote. Devon and Abby vote for Nate. He urges his sister to vote in line with them.
Billy wonders what the point of the voting is if they know the outcome.
After telling Nate he appreciates him, Billy says this is premature and votes against it as does Jill.
Everyone looks at Lily to cast the deciding vote.
