Circuits Of Deceit

When your family becomes your foe, how far will you go to stay safe? After Sevii commits an unspeakable act against her parents, Edwin struggles to keep the truth hidden from Nathalian and Blythe while simultaneously dealing with his business's explosive growth. Sevii deserves to be grounded, but Edwin realizes that he needs to promote her to full-time status to keep EDit Save afloat. And when he debates bringing in one additional team member, it becomes a war of the exes that has Edwin ready to snap his spectacles. But that's not the only issue at foot. Edwin and Sevii's involvement in The Underground has driven Moira to the point of madness, especially as both of them grow chummier with Reaper to Moira's dismay. Determined to regain her confidence, Moira chooses to re-enter the workfield as a marketing manager. She dyes her hair, she enlists Céline-Jacqueminot as a permanent au pair, and she takes matters into her own hands concerning the questionable expiry date between her husband and his ruthless assassin of a baby momma. With everyone wrapped up in their own dilemmas, Jaxyn continues to spiral relatively undisturbed. Nathalian and Reaper both grow to fear the unhinged teenager, especially as the extent of her indiscretions fully come to light. Blythe takes it upon herself to bring her youngest child back to reality, but before she can, a split-second mistake changes the whole of the Washingtons' family unit forever.
