Xander's eyes narrowed as he watched Hermia accept the award on his behalf. The room seemed to fade into the background, and all he could focus on was the smug smile spreading across Hermia's face. He felt a surge of anger and embarrassment, his mind racing with questions. Why had Hunter not told him about the ceremony? And what was Hermia's motive for accepting the award?As he stood there, frozen in shock, the audience began to murmur and whisper to each other. Xander's face burned with humiliation, and he knew he needed to take action. He took a deep breath, pushed through the doors, and strode towards the stage. At the last moment, he made a turn and went to his family table and took a seat beside Randy. The empty seat on his other side was soon occupied by Hunter. "Why didn't you go on stage and get your award from that heartless bitch" Randy said with urgency in a low voice as she glared at Hermia. The lady in question got down from the stage with no care for the world. "I'm

"You were supposed to come straight home" Randy stated when she reach Xander. She had changed out of her red gown she wore to the ceremony and was now putting on sweats under a brown coat. She titled her head, a bit to see Hunter and said, "Didn't you tell him?" "I did" Hunter answered politely as he didn't want to anger Randy more than she already was. "Don't be mad at him, I was the one who wanted to see how the office was going in my absence and it's a good thing I came or I wouldn't have kno-" Xander said with a nervous smile before Randy shut him short. "Your dad wants you home and that's final, let's go" Randy said and took Xander's hand leading him towards the entrance. "But I still have to check the video" Xander said and turned to Hunter for assistance. His tired assistance just rolled his eyes and shove his hand into his pant pocket. "You can check it tomorrow" Randy responded, "You don't even know how worried your family are?" Randy mumbled. "What did you say?" Xande

Those eyes weren't his. That wasn't him. He wouldn't steal his company secrets because he is angry at his father. That wasn't him. He wasn't smart enough to see that as an option to rebel. "That isn't, me" Xander spoke up. "I know" Hunter responded "You believe me?" Xander questioned, doubt stewing his features. "We were together on this day" Hunter turned to his boss and stated. The little effort Hunter made to defend him caused his lip to tilt into a smile. "So who is this?" Xander asked to no person in particular. "We would have to find out how someone can impersonate you face so well and forget your eyes, unless.. " Hunter said and stopped as he reran his thoughts again. He slowly stood straight like found the answered to his unanswered question. He continued, "Unless he wants to be caught?" Xander nodded in affirmation as some puzzles were coming into place. "We need to know the files he took so we can know how to shield any attack." Hunter inputed ag

"Do you have a twin?" Randy asked a surprised Xander.It took him a few moments to process the question before he responded. “I don't,” he began, unsure."I don’t have a twin," he said again, more confidently this time, as he noticed the doubt in everyone’s eyes."Then why is there a birth certificate for another person born the same day as you, with our surname?" Trente asked, his brows knit into a frown as he searched for an explanation that didn't involve the man standing in front of them."That's a question Cameron is going to answer," Xander said and stood up."Where are you going?" Randy asked, instantly on her feet.Xander clenched his fist before replying through gritted teeth, “To get answers,” and left the office.“Xander, wait!” Randy called after him, ready to follow, but Hunter stepped in front of her, blocking her view as Xander disappeared behind the door."I’ll go after him. You two continue reviewing the documents—and take care of Emily," Hunter said. His face betraye

"Baby, be quick you got to see this" Hermia heard her husband, Mike call her from the bathroom. She just got home from a business lunch with a new business owner in hopes that he would be their investor. The chances of that happening was very low after the dinner ended. She decided to soak in a bath when she got to her new condo that Mike got them after their honeymoon. If only the bath could wash away all her problems. "In a minute" she answered and stood from the bath. She went to shower and washed off the foam before dried herself with a white towel and wore a pink robe. "Honey, what if it?" She asked when she entered the sitting room. "Come sit, you are going to love this" Mike said patting the space next to him. She rolled her eyes but still sat beside him. She joined him in watching the television, thinking he was only seeking her attention until she listened in to the news. "The new Chairman of XL conglomerate, Alexander Cage was caught on CCTV steal some of the company s
