Braxton stares at his mother in silence. This is unbelievable.
"Braxton, are you okay?"
"Mom.. I'm.. why didn't you ever tell me? How could you keep this from me?"
"Darling, you're mother was trying to protect you from what she had done."
Octavia speaks for Joyce as the mother begins to cry.
"Braxton I'm sorry. I thought you would have never forgiven me. The child was put up for adoption and I thought I would never see the father or the child again."
"What?! You mean to tell me you saw one of them?"
"Yes, I saw the father."
In disbelief, Braxton stands up and moves toward the window. A half-brother? How could I have a half-brother and not even know it? How could she do this to me? What am I saying, it's not her fault. It's my horrible excuse for a father. Who is the father of my brother? Braxton turns back around to face his mother.
"Who is the father?"
Braxton speaks slowly as if he is figuring it out as he asks the question. Suddenly, he shouts out.
"It's that doctor, what's his name. Dr... Dr. Weston Scott."
Brayen is interrupted in the seduction of Denver by the ring of his phone. Looking at the annoyance, he realizes it's his father and ignores the call. Putting the phone back in his pocket, he resumes his activity.
"Now where were we?"
Suddenly the phone vibrates, for this time it was on silent. It must be his father again. He continues to ignore and Denver and Brayen resume. For a third time the phone begins to ring.
"Maybe you should answer that."
"Fine, excuse me for just a minute."
Denver wanders downstairs to join the rest of his family while Brayen talks on the phone.
"Dad what do you want?"
"Brayen, I have to talk to you immediately."
"I don't have time for this."
"It's regarding your mother."
Brayen hears a click. Wondering what that was all about, he rushes downstairs to inform the others of his departure and find his father.
"Alex, and the rest of the family, I apologize for my early departure, but my father has just informed me there is something wrong with my mother."
Family in confusion, Brayen rushes out of the house.
After hearing the conversation between Braxton and his mother, Skyler can't help but need to spread the news.
"Braxton, please excuse me. I want to leave your family in privacy. Just give me a call later."
Skyler leaves the tensed hotel room. As he walks from the hotel to his car, he dials a number on his phone.
"Hello?"
"Hawke, you're not going to believe this! Braxton Bouchet just found out he has a half-brother. And supposedly it's some hospital doctor's son! Dr. Weston Scott."
"WHAT?! Do you know who that is? That's Brayen's dad!"
"Perfect! It's a deal then."
Alvin escorts some businessmen from the conference room in his mansion.
Finally, the contract has been signed. I've been waiting for this for months. Now who can I get to run it?
With a sudden exclamation of understanding, Alvin picks up the phone.
"Yes, I need to speak with you right away."
"Braxton, are you okay?"
"Mom.. I'm.. why didn't you ever tell me? How could you keep this from me?"
"Darling, you're mother was trying to protect you from what she had done."
