Nichole sat in the dinning room proud of her accomplishments. Not only was she able to ax off her beloved husband she was also able to trick Brady into marrying her. She now had everything that she had ever wanted. She had Brady and all of Brady's grandfather's money. She relished in Chloe's misery; she wished she had recorded the phone conversation between Chloe and Brady. She loved how he broke up with her over the phone and how sad he was in doing so; she had forced him into the marriage by threatening his family and his friends. He might not love her now but in time she was sure he would. Now with Chloe out of the way, there was nothing to stop her from getting what she wanted. In a couple of weeks she would be married to Brady and Chloe would have nothing.

Nichole had canceled the construction of the opera house as soon as Brady had agreed to marry her. She said she wouldn't but as soon as Brady agreed she did it behind his back. Once he was definitely hers, she would tell him all about the opera house. Nichole told Henderson to change the phone numbers so that Chloe wouldn't be able to call there ever again.





Jan walked around her apartment furiously. Nichole had lied to her; she was suppose to get Shawn in exchange for her husband's death. Two weeks had passed and still she had no Shawn. Instead, she had to watch Belle prance all around town with her boyfriend. When was she ever going to learn to keep her hands off of him? Jan sat down on her desk and pulled out the file that she had stolen from Victor's safe. She had never actually looked inside the file. She wondered why Nichole was intrigued by this folder so much; so she decided she would finally have a look.

Jan was pleased that she did. Inside the folder, were papers that would ultimately destroy Nichole and put Chloe on top. She bet that Nichole probably had no idea that Chloe and Brady were suppose to inherit all of Victor's money and she was suppose to get nothing but a ticket to jail for killing Collin Murphy. Maybe it was high time that she made that information known to a few people. Maybe it was time that Chloe knew all about Nichole and her dirty little secrets. Nichole hadn't come through for her so maybe Chloe could give her Shawn in exchange for her happiness with Brady. After all, he wasn't marry Nichole because he loved her. He was marrying Nichole because she was about to destroy his family. Maybe it was time for Chloe to come back to Salem after all.





Chloe sat in her dressing room mad. At first she was upset but then after she realized that Nichole was behind all of her anguish she became furious. It was obvious to her that she had been trying to get Brady for some time. She was always trying to get her slutty claws into him. She saw how Nichole practically drooled all over him. She couldn't count the number of time she had tried to get him to move out of there; but no he wouldn't. He didn't want to abandoned her like everyone else had. What could she do about it anyways? He was marrying Nichole and she was stuck in Europe for a whole year. They would be married by the time she was done. At least the opera house would be done by then.

Chloe got up and began to practice for the show that was scheduled for the night. She was singing a few lines when a messenger knocked on the door and handed her a note. The note explained to her the cancellation of the opera house by Mrs. Kiriakis. She began to shred the piece of paper up. She wished she could shred Nichole's face up more than anything else in the world. Nichole thought she was so high and mighty but one day she would fall and Chloe counted on being there to see it.





Jan didn't know if she really should be calling Chloe because after all she hated her. Twice she tried to destroy Chloe and twice she failed. This matter was different though because this time she wanted Chloe's help and she knew that Chloe need her desperately. Chloe might not know that yet but as soon as found out about Nichole she would offer to help Jan. After reassuring herself of this, she began to dial Chloe's number once again.

Chloe picked up the phone but as soon as Jan spoke, she hung it back up. Jan had to call more than three times before Chloe finally asked her what she wanted. That's when Jan said she wanted to help her. Chloe was about hang up the phone but Jan told her that it was important that she come back to Salem immediately. Chloe said she would think about it and then hung up. Jan knew she would come because she made sure to tell Chloe that it had to do with Nichole and Brady and how she could finally topple the rich bitch. Nichole was going to get what was coming to her finally and Chloe was going to help her achieve that.





Nichole lounged in the pool laughing to her self. Life was absolutely how she dreamed it would be. Chloe and Jan were out of the picture and Brady was all hers. Maybe she would ask Shawn and Belle to have a double wedding with her and Brady. Chloe wasn't getting her opera house and Jan was getting Shawn. Everything was going great according to her calculations.





He really hated Sami but he loved his sister so he made the choice to protect her. Sami and Brandon were married and Brandon had no idea that the paternity papers had been switched. Nichole had held that over his head and a few other things. Like his father was cheating on Marlena. If Belle found out about her father and sister it would just kill her and he couldn't do that to her. Not now and not ever. So he chose Belle over Chloe and decided that marrying Nichole was the best thing to do. He hated how he had to hurt Chloe; after all she had been through she really hadn't deserved the new he had given her over the phone. He would somehow make Sami and Nichole pay for this and he would get Lucas to help him. Lucas was already suspicious of Sami; if only there was some way to bring down Sami without hurting Belle he would do it.

Nichole tiptoed into the house to scare Brady but he had seen her from the side mirror. She began to flirt and joke around with him but he only looked at her rudely before going up to his bed for the night. It was only a matter of time before he came around. She knew he would or he would be miserable for the rest of his life because once he married her it would be for the rest of his life.
