Thomas was out of Victor's house in a jiffy. He didn't wait for any further explanation.He went into his car and drove out immediately.Victor had pushed him to the wall. No doubt.How could he?Why would he stand against Alex?His mind was foggy. He decided to park the car and clear his head.Then his thoughts went to his phone. Why was Xavier calling so insistently? He switched it back on.The little peace he'd accomplished by parking his car to rest shattered immediately when he saw the text from Xavier.*"Logan is pulling the strings hard. This isn't some sort of game anymore. There are people backing him up."*He swallowed hard.*There are people backing him up.*His mind connected to someone instantly.He brushed it off almost immediately.*No! Victor might be unfilial, but it must be because Jessica is involved. He wouldn't stoop so low to...*"Stop it, Thomas. Just stop it." He scolded himself.He placed his head against the steering wheel and took a deep breath.If this was

Alex tried Philip's number for the third time. It kept going to voicemail.He was ignoring him. He could swear on his life it was related to what happened to Jessica."Just let him be for now. I don't think he'll ever want to meet since there's...""Shit..." Alex cursed, and Xavier stopped talking.His eyes glanced through the phone, and sweat began to form on his forehead. "Shit, shit, shit." He cursed louder this time.Xavier's heart nearly burst as he moved to him."What is it? Is there something I should know?"Alex handed over the phone to him, and his eyes nearly bulged out."They are... fuck... who's this makeup artist..." He hadn't even read the entire caption. Xavier collected the phone from Alex and read in silence.Every bone in his body tightened as he read. "What the fuck are they insinuating? That you caused this?"Alex began to panic."Calm down. Wait... take a deep breath... you can do this, Alex. You're stronger than you think. Breathe well. Relax..." Xavier tried cal

"What the fuck did you do?"The voice thundered across a room in a mansion. There was silence after."You think I did this? I didn't! It was him!" another voice shouted.A loud noise came, like things were shattering on the floor. "I'll never let this slide! I can't lose a daughter because of your stupid games!" Victor finally voiced his mind.He was shaking terribly, his eyes red and swollen like he'd been crying.Another person sat opposite where he paced. "We'll take good care of her," Philip said.Victor moved closer to him like he was going to strangle him. "After I told you I'd handle this? You think I'll let you near her again after what you've done? Alex doesn't deserve any of this from all of you."Philip's face hardened. "You're saying this because your daughter got affected."Victor moved forward, shoulders rigid and hard. "I'm saying this because all of this is not worth it. Cut me some slack. Don't involve me in your future dealings."He stormed out of the room.Philip's

"I need to go." Alex grabbed the keys on the table, but Thomas stopped him halfway."Where exactly?" Thomas stood up. "To the wedding hall? To save who?"Alex couldn't believe his ears. "You're seriously asking me that? It's obvious Jessica got shot! Because of me!" He yelled, the only restraint he had left letting loose.He was terribly shaking, his eyes wide with anger. He couldn't think, couldn't understand what he was feeling, but all he knew was that his pulse was loud, too loud.He needed to get there. She needed him. To save her.He looked at Xavier to say something, to reason with him. But the man looked away."Thomas is right," Xavier said quietly.Alex gave them a betrayed look. "How could both of you think like this? Jessica's hurt. She needs help. You think Emma will ever get her to the hospital?""And that's why we must stop arguing and send someone to help her out. You can go, but you must not be seen at the venue," Thomas argued.Alex chuckled darkly, surprised at how T

Alex couldn't rest in his room. The conversation he'd had earlier with Thomas and Xavier was eating him out.He decided within himself to go downstairs. Even if it wasn't for reconciliation, his room was suffocating him.He was halfway down the stairs when he kept hearing voices. He stretched his neck only to see the TV displaying things he didn't, or chose not to, understand.His vision blurred for a second, like he just couldn't understand what he was seeing."Emma?"Xavier looked back upon hearing his voice. Thomas kept his head straight, but it was evident in his eyes he was seething with anger.Alex missed his steps as he closed in on them. "What's going on?" His baritone voice came out now.His eyes blinked hard, like they couldn't see enough.And then he heard it."I'll take him as my husband."Emma said it with joy, her face holding a smile he didn't know was fake or not.Xavier swallowed a big lump. "No one saw this coming! No one did." He slammed the sofa hard. "They're gett
