Bill had an unexpected hand in ensuring Chelsea wouldn’t be without her fiancée, Madison, on Beyond the Gates. Ever the doting father, he made a donation that would keep Madison stateside while guaranteeing she didn’t lose out on the opportunity of a lifetime. But will his meddling cause problems down the line?

Key Takeaways

  • Why Bill made an offer that couldn’t be refused
  • How his decision affects Chelsea and Madison’s future
  • Hayley may play a part in outing Bill and Chelsea’s secret

Bill Saves the Day for Chelsea

It’d been weighing on Chelsea (RhonniRose Mantilla) that Madison (Kenjah) had given up the fellowship in Copenhagen to focus on their wedding and the life they’re planning together. Concerned that her soon-to-be wife would grow resentful, Chelsea told her father, Bill (Timon Kyle Durett), that she was going to tell her to go. It has been Madison’s dream to work on groundbreaking Parkinson’s research. Chelsea didn’t want her to miss out on the goal she’d been working toward before they started dating.

Bill warned Chelsea not to make demands. She pushed back, believing that because her heart was in the right place, Madison would have to listen to her. But then Bill took the decision out of both of their hands. He made a sizeable donation to the research group with the stipulation that a study be opened in the DMV.

Madison got the call about the opportunity before Chelsea could speak with her about going to Copenhagen. In her excitement, she mentioned that it all seemed too good to be true. What she doesn’t realize is that she’s correct. While it is true, it’s too good to be a coincidence. Bill is the reason she can have her dream and be with the woman she loves.

Will Bill’s Meddling Have Consequences?

Bill’s reputation as a shady businessman precedes him, but this time he used his money for good. However, he did so at a moment’s notice, without consulting anyone. Chelsea seems to know exactly how this strike of unbelievable luck came to be. But she’s likely to be grateful for her father’s interference since it’s what’s kept her love in the same city with her. Whether she fills Madison in on what happened remains in question.

As for Hayley (Marquita Goings), she found her husband as he was finishing his phone call about the donation. This could be the way Madison finds out if Chelsea doesn’t tell her. Or it might be the setup for more twists with Hayley as she continues her plot to kill Bill. Either way, the married couple has its own problems to contend with as Randy’s (Maurie P. Kerry) true identity gets closer to being revealed to Bill.
