Sheila tried a new plan to get Eric from Stephanieīs clutches. She offered Eric to set him free if he truly wanted to, while acting all innocent like a martyr. It bit on Eric who was touched by the offer. But Stephanie didnīt buy it. She had her eye on Sheila, which Sheila knew very well. Cause she was keeping an eye on Stephanie as well.
Sheila got her hands on Ericīs will by having Mike steal a copy of it. She went to Connor with it who informed her that she would be financially secured if she had Ericīs baby. So Sheila set out to get pregnant. Stephanie suspected something was up and suggested to Eric that he have a vasectomy. Eric agreed to it, but never told Sheila. He told his wife that he would be away on a business trip. Sheila suspected Eric to have an affair when nobody knew where he was. So Eric had the vasectomy and recovered at Stephanieīs house. Sheila convinced Eric to make love, but as much as Sheila tried, she couldnīt get pregnant
Sheila fixed up a nursery at hers and Ericīs house to prepare for the baby. But since she couldnīt get pregnant with Eric, she slept with Connor. She wanted to pass Connorīs baby off as Ericīs. She didnīt get pregnant so she lied to Eric about being pregnant. Thatīs when Eric told Sheila about his vasectomy. Connor told Sheila she could get a hefty divorce settlement because Eric lied to her. Sheila told Eric that if he stayed with her for a month, she wouldnīt sue. And Eric told Sheila she were to visit a therapist, James. She agreed. Sheila was upset when she learned Eric had only married her because he had been on a rebound from Brooke. Eric left the country to attend Macy & Thorneīs concert in Rotterdame while Sheila agreed to an intense therapy session with James. As he mentioned Lauren and Genoa City, Sheila tried to murder James, but he was called away before Sheila had the chance.
