After Ivy left Liam's beach house, he called Steffy to meet him there. Steffy arrived at Liam's in a skimpy bikini and a towel around her waist which she took off. Liam was very attracted and Steffy stated she misses LA'S water so much. Paris only has one river, which nobody swims in, well except for Ivy.

Steffy tried explaining to Steffy he's in love with her cousin. Steffy explained she can't do this without their relationship and Liam stated any man would wanna be with her. Steffy kissed Liam on the couch and then layed him down and made out with him on top of him when Ivy arrived in the doorway. Ivy hid to the side and eavesdropped. Liam turned her down because of Ivy.

Steffy explaining she and Liam have history, and Ivy explaining she thought Steffy would be a fun person to hang out with coming back to L.A., but this was unbelievable. Ridge tells Steffy that Liam told him the plan about Forrester. Liam told Ridge that Bill would sell his shares to him, so Bill would have no part of the company. Ridge stated Steffy still loves Liam and she admit she does. Ridge's main concern was the plan would be putting Eric out of business. Steffy stated it's the only thing to do with Rick. ridge stated Eric loved him and treated him just like a son. Steffy stated Eric is favoring his brother now.

After Eric wouldn't appoint Ridge as CEO, Ridge called Steffy on the phone to meet him at Forrester. Steffy arrived informed that Maya is transgender and Eric won't remove Rick as CEO. Ridge insisted he needed Steffy and him to be a team to take over Forrester and she agreed. Ridge insisted this is bigger than her getting Liam back and him getting CEO. Rick arrived in his office giving them a hard time. Ridge called Liam to meet him at Forrester. Liam was happy to see Steffy and she was also pleased. Ridge convinced Liam to use Steffy's, Thomas's, Bill's controlled by Liam, and Thomas's to overpower Eric. Steffy stated there are no conditions this time. Liam agreed and Ridge insisted to Eric that they're taking over while Eric insisted he's in charge which Ridge stated he's in charge now.

Steffy, Liam, Bill, and Ridge were able to take over Forrester Creations with their shares. Ivy was encouraging wyatt to ask out Steffy because Wyatt stated she's incredibly intelligent and beautiful. Ivy explained this to Liam and asked if that would be uncomfortable and Liam claimed it wouldn't be.

An officer arrived at Forrester handing Ivy deportation papers on her desk. He explained she is an illegal immigrant and her father filled out the papers incorrectly. Ivy thought that because her father is an American citizen and her mother is an Australian one that she had dual citizenship. The officer told her she has a week to pack for Australia and she broke the law. Ivy would have to resign for a passport which could take months or even years. Ivy became distressed that she'd be losing her boyfriend and her life in the States. After Quinn found out Wyatt had told Steffy to give them a chance and kissed her,  Quinn tried being friendly with Ivy and was shocked when she picked up deportation papers on her desk. Quinn was very supportive and insisted on helping her. Ivy explained she'll lose her boyfriend and her life in the States because he dad didn't fill out the paperwork right. Ivy left to talk to Liam only to eavesdrop on Steffy over there and Liam stating he'll talk to Ivy to make her understand everything. Ivy ran out crying knowing her relationship was over. Ivy explained this to Quinn and Quinn stated she's not being deported or losing Liam. Quinn convinced her the only way to stay in the country is to ask Liam to marry her. Liam was uncertain if they're ready for marriage. Ivy stated he'd be saving her life here. Quinn rushed Carter over to Liam's beach house to marry them. Ivy and Liam said their vows and were wed on June 16, 2015.

 Liam and Ivy agreed that the marriage is only on paper and that they're still dating because they're not ready for marriage. Ivy was thrilled to be married but assured Liam she understands that this is a marriage of convenience. Quinn was thrilled for Ivy that she and Liam got married. Quinn got Ivy to admit to her that she'd like something for out of this marriage but Ivy respected Liam's wishes. Agent McCaffrey stopped by the office and Ivy stated she is now married to an American citizen, whom Quinn explained was the Liam Spencer. McCaffrey found it quite suspicious how she didn't mention her engagement the last time they spoke. Ivy claimed they've been planning this for months. McCaffrey asked if she had moved in with him and Ivy confirmed that. McCaffrey stated he'd stop by later to question them. Ivy arrived at Liam's to overhear Liam tell an upset Steffy he loves her. Steffy was furiously upset and ended it with him because she's tired of sharing him and stormed out. Ivy told Liam she understands that he still has feelings for Steffy. Ivy explained after the agreement, he can go back to Steffy if that's what he wants or he doesn't have to stay married to her. Liam assured Ivy he wants to be married to her and likes getting to know her better. McCaffrey stopped by to investigate the validity of their marriage. He found suspicion in the broken vase on the table that Steffy smashed when she was enraged. Liam left so McCaffrey could speak with her privately. McCaffrey informed her that she does in fact have dual citizenship and that it wouldn't make a difference if she was married to Liam Spencer or not.

 Ivy was worried about telling Liam he doesn't have to be married to her because of his feelings for Steffy. Quinn convinced Ivy not to tell him since he married her because he loves her. Ivy stated he doesn't love her the same way he loves Steffy. Ivy explained to Liam that he didn't have to marry her, she always had dual citizenship, and they made a huge mistake. Liam hugged Ivy. Liam rushed to Steffy with the information. Steffy didn't want him to explain anything at first but after he did she had mixed feelings. She was still mad that he married her in the first place.Ivy confronted Liam when Steffy questioned his intentions. Liam admit to Ivy he wants an annulment. Ivy explained she understands that they have history and she can't compete with memories. Steffy explained to Liam if he still feels anything for Ivy, she won't do this again. Ivy confided in Aly who was uninformed about the surprise wedding. Aly went to confront Steffy who was having Liam feel her lingerie for the line. Aly snapped at Steffy claiming they replaced a tyrant with a slut.

Ivy notices how dark Aly is at the Fourth of July party when Aly states"I don't understand people", then "Why do we let ourselves get all walked over" and when she expressed a strong hatred towards Steffy. Aly also has several outbursts in Forrester meetings against Steffy and Maya and California Freedom.

Katie stops by Forrester Creations and sees Wyatt and Ivy working together nicely. Katie encourages Ivy that she shouldn't let Liam string her along and Wyatt might be a safe place to land.
