Rumor has it Alexis will come to recognize a familiar name on the seat of the board responsible for possibly reinstating Alexis’ license to practice law — Fergus Byrne (Lane Davies).

Will Neil Byrne’s (Joe Flanigan) older brother end up being the catalyst for more than just a potential second chance at the career Alexis loves? Will he end up being someone new for her to love?

Word on the street is that Alexis will soar through this hearing with flying colors. She will be reinstated to practice law, and she’ll have no idea at that time that many more blessings could be headed her way.

She probably never should’ve doubted Diane’s ability to make this happen. She knew if anyone could do it, it would be her best friend.

Eager to spar with her in the courtroom again, Alexis won’t waste any time getting down to business and segueing out of her role at The Invader to jump into her new relationship as partner to Diane.

But word on the street is Diane is not the only new partner Alexis will have on the horizon.
