I feel like someone is playing the 'God game' here. Maybe they wanted to control both the Sinclair and Brunton family to make an alliance to each other or something else. idk... Remember the mysterious 'blonde + blue eyed' guy that mumbled/mused/thought about something along the lines that "Talia shouldn't know the truth yet"? That guy feels like Cyrus... If that was Cyrus, that means he faked his death. If he faked his death, it means he is planning something. I mean, what are the odds of all those drama happening 'right after Cyrus' death' right? --Cyrus 'asked' Talia to kill him. Talia 'confidentially' has the encrusted locket that time Talia 'killed' him. Apparently Cyrus seemed like 'he wanted' her to have it.. --Cyrus' family wanted Talia dead for killing their heir. Then they realized Talia has their family's encrusted locket. Meaning they can't kill her. --Cyrus' family isn't convinced, they asked for a compensation which would result in the Sinclair and Brunton family's alliance. (so many other details happened but am too lazy to analyze it) --But yea, that's the conclusion. Two hostile families ending up in an alliance.
