Shei questions her loyalty to the Gatehis

Shei finds herself torn between loyalty and self-preservation as Ryan urges her to turn her back on her family. He warns her that she’s still an outsider, and that EAGC is all about Leo. The faster she wakes up to that truth, he tells her, the faster she will get what she deserves.

Tehi finds himself in a tight spot when he regains consciousness at Kiilu’s apartment. Killu confronts him about botching Lizzy’s assassination, killing Kat instead. With Lizzy catching wind of his return, Tehi knows his life hangs in the balance. Kiilu advises him to seize control of the Gatehi empire from Evangeline, and get rid of Lizzy once and for all.
Gigi’s tech project is hijacked

Gigi faces a setback of her own as Leo hands the project reins to Lizzy, leaving Gigi feeling sidelined and frustrated.
Carol-Marie comes clean to Leo

Carol-Marie confides in Leo about being forced to marry Kiilu in order to save her daughter. They vow to fight against him and Evangeline together.
Shei’s unexpected engagement

The biggest shock moment of the week is when Shei and Ryan get engaged! It's a strategic move, and one that secures Shei’s future when she takes on the Gatehis. Cyrus advises her to tread cautiously and play her cards close to her chest.
Shei turns her back on her family
