"Xander?"
"Xander?"
"Yeah, sorry!" Xander said in a small tone. He was still occupied by the thoughts of what happened at Mason's apartment and how Sierra and Ian faced it.
"It's done!!" said James looking at Xander.
"Good! Any troubles while getting here?" asked Xander in a small tone subtly swirling in his office chair as if still lost in his thoughts. He alternated his gaze between James and Kevin. They were the men who were with him in his office that morning when he called Jeremy for that 'meeting'.
"No he didn't talk at all. And he looks like he is confused about what is happening" James said making his way towards Xander's table and Kevin followed him.
"I will talk to him. It is expected that he will be confused about all this. But once he knows what happened I am sure he will understand everything" said Xander picking up his spectacles from the table.
"Anyway, where is he?" asked Xander wearing his spectacles and turned to look at James.
"Down in the living room" replied back Kevin as James was busy thinking about what must be going on in Xander's mind.
"Okay!" said Xander in a small tone while getting up from his chair and was about to leave the office but was interrupted by a suspicious James.
"Where are you going?" asked James. Xander looked calm but there was a lot going on within him. James of course knew about his state but chose to avoid it.
"To have a word with him" Xander stated the obvious while folding his crisp cotton white shirt sleeves. His blazer was already hung on his office chair. His tie hung loosely around his neck. His once perfectly styled brown hair was now disorganised yet presentable. It still gave him that 'rough' look.
"Xander, what's going on?" asked James now unable to avoid Xander's silence and his behaviour.
"What do you mean?" asked Xander checking his phone for any notifications as if it was the most important thing at present.
"I thought you would 'order' him to come and meet you in your office. You never go to people Xander; people always come to you. Or so to say, you make them come to you. You know by your ways; 'by hook or by crook'!!" said James and kept looking at Xander in his eyes. He knew he could not help himself from voicing his doubts.
"I know James. But he is about to know what happened to his daughter, and it is really not the right time to 'order' him" stated Xander in the most obvious and concerned tone which only came in existence for his family or his friends.
"However, I have to ask him what he even saw in that Mason that he simply trusted him with Sierra" said Xander with his clenching his taut jaw even more remembering Mason's deeds. If he could turn back the time he would have helped Sierra; he would have not let Sierra meet a person like Mason. He was highly irritated but he knew he had to control himself at least for Sierra's sake.
"Anyway, I need to talk to him. Thanks for the help!!" said Xander and before either James or Kevin could even think of anything, he walked out of his home office.
"I think that is his 'Super Angel' side!" said James in a surprised tone and Kevin simply laughed.

"Mr. Carter!" called Xander making his way down the stairs. His gaze was fixed at Jeremy. There was a change in his demeanour which was obviously noticed by Jeremy. Possibly that was the reason that he could not really filter what was coming out of his mouth next.
