Contracted to the wrong twin The Voice On The Phone
Chapter 83: The Voice On The PhoneSophie was sitting on the edge of the couch when they arrived, Lily already asleep in her room, a mug of tea gone cold on the table in front of her like she'd made it an hour ago and forgotten it existed.She stood the second the door opened. "Judith, thank god. I didn't know who else to call.""Tell me what's going on," Judith said, keeping her voice level with an effort that cost her more than she wanted to admit. "Now. All of it."Sophie's hands were shaking. "Someone contacted me about six weeks ago. A phone call, no name, just a woman's voice asking if I'd be willing to earn some extra money doing something simple.""What kind of simple," Ethan asked, his tone flat and controlled in the specific way Judith had learned meant he was holding back something much sharper underneath."Answering questions. About Lily's schedule. Which days she had swimming, which park you took her to on weekends, what time she usually napped." Sophie's voice cracked. "

Chapter 82: The Coat In The Garden"Zoom in," Ethan said. "On the hedge."Elena pulled the photograph onto the main display, enlarging the corner until the pixels blurred and softened, but the shape of the coat held steady — long, dark, cut in a style that had gone out of fashion decades ago and never come back."You're certain," Ethan said, "that this belonged to my father.""I used to fold it," Judith said quietly. "When I was small. He kept it in the front hall closet at the house whenever he visited us, and I used to climb on the bench underneath it because it smelled like cedar and cigars, and I liked hiding there." She swallowed hard. "I didn't understand until years later how strange it was that your father visited us at all.""How often?""I don't know. I was a child. Adults came and went. I never thought to count."Elena kept working, running the image through something that sharpened edges and lifted shadows, though no amount of processing was going to put a face where none
Contracted to the wrong twin A Name From The Garden
Chapter 81: A Name From The Garden"Judith." Ethan's voice was quiet now, careful, like he understood that whatever came next might change something between them permanently. "Who is it?"She stared at the screen a moment longer, at the ordinary black letters that carried the weight of an entire childhood behind them."Simon," she said finally. "Simon Ashcroft."Elena's fingers paused over her keyboard. "The name doesn't mean anything to me. Should it?""He was my father's oldest friend." Judith's voice sounded strange to her own ears, distant, like she was describing someone else's memories. "Not Blackwood, not business, not at first. He used to come to the house on Sundays. He taught me how to play chess in the garden when I was seven. He gave me a signed cricket bat for my tenth birthday because he knew my father never would.""And he worked at Blackwood," Ethan said."Later, my father brought him in, said Simon was the only person in that entire building he actually trusted."

Contracted to the wrong twin The person inside
Chapter 80: The person inside The conference room on the forty-second floor felt colder than usual. Outside the floor to ceiling windows, London’s night lights blurred into a distant constellation.Ethan stood with both hands braced against the polished table as authorization logs scrolled across the central screen. Blue light carved shadows beneath his eyes.Judith watched him silently while Elena worked at the secondary terminal.“It wasn’t remote,” Elena finally said. “Whoever used your executive authorization code was physically inside this building.”Ethan continued locking every financial subsystem still under his control—payment gateways, legacy transfer protocols, and the old standing-order engine that had somehow survived years of restructuring.“How many people have physical access to the executive wing after midnight?” he asked.“On paper, twelve. In practice, fewer. Three people entered between one-forty and 2:30am on the night the renewal was executed.”“Show us.”Ele
Contracted to the wrong twin 2:13 AM
Chapter 79: 2:13 AMEthan locked down the financial systems himself, standing over Elena's shoulder while she typed, refusing to leave the room until every account tied to Harrow Logistics had been frozen."If someone's using my code," he said, "I want them locked out before they know I noticed.""Already done," Elena said. "But locking the money doesn't tell us who moved it.""Then let's find out who did."We moved to the security archive next, a small room two floors below the executive suite that I hadn't even known existed until that morning. Rows of monitors, years of footage and a single guard who looked startled to see the CEO himself standing in his doorway before eight in the morning."I need building access logs," Ethan said. "Three nights ago. Everyone who entered after midnight."The guard didn't ask questions. He just typed.I stood beside Ethan, my arms crossed tight against my chest, watching the screen fill with names and timestamps. Most of the night showed nothing j
Contracted to the wrong twin The Mark
Chapter 78: The MarkAll through the night, no one could sleep.By the time the sun came up, the table was covered in old documents, printouts, and the one folded page Thomas had kept hidden for years. The symbol sat at the bottom of almost everything now that we knew to look for it."How did you never notice this?" I asked.Ethan rubbed his eyes. "Because it's small, it's has always been there and my father told me it was part of the original Blackwood seal, and I never had a reason to question it.""You have a reason now.""yes, I know."Elena arrived just after seven, laptop bag over her shoulder, looking like she hadn't slept much either. She took one look at the papers spread across the table and set her bag down without a word."Tell me everything," she said.We did. About Margare, the message, the symbol, Thomas's warning about the committee and the man they only ever called the Chair.Elena listened without interrupting, her face growing more serious with every sentence."I
