Now it's bad enough Lily initiated a fight with 9Mag that cost Phor an important opportunity. If that wasn't enough she didn't take responsibility for her part in it. To make matters worse she made an accusation towards Van that got everyone wondering did he or didn't he!

Following the fight between Loyal Ink and 9Mag Jenn tried to get Lily to own up to what she did. Lily wasn't trying to hear Jenn because she's just Van's girlfriend. She didn't care to hear about what Charmaine had to say because she knows nothing about tattoos. Lily felt noone was on her side. She felt like Don was choosing Junior over her. Since 

Charmaine invited Lily and Reese on the trip to resolve their issues she wanted them to stay. Lily and Reese camped outside in a tent while the others slept indoors. The following day Van tried to get Lily and Reese to come back to the group and continue working at Loyal Ink. He also threw his wife under the bus to do it. Later on that evening Lily confronted the group and told them how she felt. Before she and Reese walked away from Loyal Ink for good Lily dropped a bomb. She claim Van came over to her place and tried to kick it with her while he and Jenn were still together. She added that he reached in for a kiss and she kiss him back. Van denied that any of what Lily said happened.

Did Van and Lily pull a Don and Charmaine? If what Lily says is true it will eventually come out. If it is true can Jenn really get mad? Or is it even game?

That was real smooth the way Danielle was acting like everything was all good when Terrance came home. He had no clue what was about to go down because he thought he was off the hook. After Danielle revealed that she had proof  about he and velvet via text messages Terrance had no choice but to come clean. Was Velvet being messy? Of course, she was being messy but it was better that she knew then rather than after she said "I Do"!

Terrance had already lied to Danielle saying nothing happened between he and the stripper, but when she mentioned the messages he had no choice but to man up. However, for Terrance it might be too late for the "I'm sorries" and the "I f****d ups". It was pretty clear that the engagement is off when Danielle took off that ring showing him jus how he has her f****d up!

Ryan Henry Black Ink Crew Chicago

Despite the drama between Ryan and his so-called family he left behind Lily came up with a good idea to make money by going to the Chicago tattoo convention. They came up with a name called Loyal Mag but had no clue Ryan was going to be at the event. On top of that Charmaine was shocked when she saw Ryan who opened a new 9Mag, at the convention with a new crew. With Phor and Don gone that left Lily and Van left to do tattoos. Van was in a good mood until Charmaine broke the news about Ryan with a new crew. 

Ultimately, Ryan was forced to face the old 9Mag crew and his girl Rachel had his back all the way. She made it very clear that if they not messing with Ryan she ain't messing with them. She was riding for her man! You go Rachel!

Lily tried to talk to Ryan first about how he left her behind without saying a word. She wanted answers and she got what she wanted. Did she like the response? You can tell by the look on her face that she wasn't happy at all. Van and Charmaine was trying to get answers as well but Ryan blew them off like they were nothing to him. Van walked away even thought he wanted to punch Ryan in the face. Had they not have been in a public place he probably would have!

Sadly, Ashley took her youngest son with her to Texas leaving DJ behind. She wanted to get away from Don after all that has happened. Can you blame her?

On next week's episode of 'Black Ink Crew Chicago' Lily tries to smash Danielle's face in. Lily feels Danielle shouldn't have a say so about what happens going forward with the shop. Danielle and Charmaine feels she has as much to do with the shop as Lily. 

Also Ryan invites Junior to the new 9Mag offering him the manager position. Junior wants to be a tattoo artist. He is on his hustle and making moves. Lily said she needed to work. Maybe she should have did what Junior did and still helped with Loyal Ink.

Will Junior accept Ryan's proposal?

Stay tuned for more 'Black Ink Crew Chicago' Wednesday's on Vh1!
