Stefan has something on his mind.
 

He want his son to join the family in the country

Nikolas will be glad to visit but he has no
intention of leaving his job ( Katherine)

Stefan reminds Nikolas they are Laura's family now.
Nikolas tells him it's you she needs now, not me.

Stefan watches Nikolas leave

Laura gazes into the soothing night air of the garden

What would she have done
without Stefan to be her friend?

Stefan wants to be good to her

Stefan and Laura share a romantic moment

Which turns to a family moment!

Will Stefan get a hug?

Stefan does gets a hug

Stefan has plans for Helena

Helena will not hurt Laura again
