Divorced My Cheating Husband & Fell For His Twin Chapter Eighteen
THREE YEARS LATER Spring was in the air. I could feel it in the air, like a slight gust of wind that gently caressed my face as I walked down the street. The snow was melting on the sidewalks, and everywhere I looked, it looked like a little bit of colour was returning to the world. “Don’t you just love it when the sun is out for an entire day?” Rachel asked beside me. We were walking hand-in-hand out of King’s Cross station, and the drone of thousands of people milling all around us was almost deafening. And yet, despite how loud and claustrophobic it felt, I’d never been happier. “I’m just glad we got back in one piece,” I said. “That train ride was exhausting.”“Well, you’re the one who wanted us to come all the way back from Aberdeen in one day,” she said. “Honestly, I still don’t see why we couldn’t have stayed a little longer.”I merely shrugged, and adjusted my bag over my shoulder. I’d missed London, and it felt good to be back. We’d been away for three weeks, and I already

MARCUS“Babe, are you awake?”I groaned as I rolled over in bed and stared at the clock. It was still dark outside, and I almost banged my head against the headboard when I saw that it was still 4am. “What is it?” I asked. “I think we need to talk,” Emily said. “It’s important.”“More important than my sleep?” I asked, turning to face her. “You are aware of the board meeting I’m having at work, right?”“This is more important,” she said. “Trust me.”I could have just rolled over and fallen back asleep. I could have grabbed the duvet and headed to the second bedroom and tried to get some sleep. But something about the way she sounded caused me to sit up and switch on the light. I was surprised to see her beaming at me, her hair pulled up in a messy bun while she kept her hands behind her back. For a brief moment, my brain tried to adjust to the present, and it took me a moment to remember that this was Emily, not Olivia. Get it together, Marcus. “So?” I asked. “What is it?”“Close

I was never much of a party person. I hated the booming music that seemed to reverberate through my chest, and the suffocating heat of dozens of people packed into a tight room like sardines. Having a sweaty stranger pressed up against you and breathing heavily down your neck was not my idea of a fun evening.But there I was, squished up between two burly guys who thought it was a good idea to yell over my head instead of trying to get closer to each other. My head was buzzing, my neck was strained, and all I wanted was to get the hell out of here and head home. It was a Saturday night, for crying out loud. I should be in my room, curled up with a Sidney Sheldon classic and listening to nothing but white noise on my headphones. But Rachel insisted that this was for my own good, and I had already complained enough times. There was no getting out of it anymore. “Hey,” one of the guys said, placing his hand on my shoulder, “don’t I know you from somewhere?”“I doubt it,” I replied, twi

MARCUSI thought nothing on earth would be able to spoil my mood that day, until I walked into the board meeting and heard the terrible news. “And there’s no way of turning this around?” I asked, a cold sweat breaking out across my forehead despite the air conditioning. Looking at the numbers, I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Reynard Tech was on the brink of bankruptcy, and there was absolutely nothing I could do about it. We’d lost another investor, and it looked like we were going to lose even more. The reality of our situation was starting to settle in, and I felt like the walls were closing in on me. “I’m afraid this is it, Marcus,” Mr. Jones said. He was one of the senior board members, and the oldest person in the room. He’d been with the company since the days of my father being in charge, and he was one of the few men I actually respected. “But surely there must be something we can do,” I said. “I mean we can’t just fold our hands and give up, right? This company has s

I love my job. I realise that every few people get to actually say that and mean it, but I do. There’s nothing quite as satisfying as doing something you love for a living, and knowing that you’re actually good at it. Social media was never my thing, and I hated the idea of people being influencers, when the only ‘product’ they’re marketing is themselves. But when there’s an actual product to sell, I’m your girl. Right from high school, I always knew that I wanted to work in marketing. So everything I ever did was to try and become somebody in that field. My marriage to Marcus had put a stop to my career for a while, but now I was back and ready to make a name for myself.Rachel’s friend was the one who introduced me to my boss, Joanna. The company was called Fluxx Marketing, and we mostly dealt with luxury brands by running ad campaigns for them, hosting events and marketing their products to a wider audience. It was the perfect job for me, and I could do it with the full knowledge

MARCUSPeople could be so ungrateful. After everything I’d done for Reynard Tech., after devoting my entire life to making that company a success and building good relationships with every single employee, they still turned around and stabbed me in the back as soon as they found out how bad things had gotten. Damn fucking traitors. I sat in my study and stared at the dozens of resignation emails from workers in every department. Our factories in Texas, Shanghai and Washington had to be temporarily shut down, because there just weren’t enough workers to keep them running anymore. Qualcomm were also increasing their charges per chip, and it just didn’t seem possible to weather this storm anymore. “Fuck!” I groaned, shoving my computer aside and staring up at the ceiling. I’d done everything I could to keep us alive, but it just wasn’t working. After sacking 50% of our employees, another 20% decided to resign voluntarily. That would have been a good thing, except for the fact that ev

“So, how long are we going to be in Paris for?” Rachel asked, practically bouncing in her seat.“A week at most,” I replied. “Anything more than that, and I’ll be paying out of my pocket.”We were sitting in a secluded booth at an Italian restaurant, having the most amazing pasta I’d tasted in years. The bottle of champagne we’d opened to celebrate my promotion was almost entirely empty now, and I was already thinking about ordering another one. Joanna wasn’t coming to the office tomorrow, so I also wasn’t obligated to come in. I could just kick up my feet on the couch and watch reruns of The Office all day long. “Well, I don’t know about you,” Rachel said, “but I plan on staying an extra week. There’s no way I’m going to Paris and leaving in just one week. It’s not enough.”“I’m definitely not going to wait for you,” I said. “Unlike you, I don’t have flexible working hours.”“You know you could afford to retire early, right?” she said, twirling her pasta around her fork. “I mean I’v

I was running in the middle of the street, desperately trying to get away from something that was chasing me in the dark. I could hear its growls, and feel its sickening breath on my neck. But no matter how fast I tried to run, the shadow kept getting closer and closer. “You’re mine,” a cold voice whispered. “No matter where you go or where you try to hide, I will always find you. And you’re never going to get rid of me, no matter how hard you try.”I was screaming at the top of my lungs, desperately calling out for help. But no one was coming to get me. I was all alone, and sooner or later it was going to get me. A sharp pain suddenly pierced my ribs, and I collapsed to the ground as the darkness descended on me, and I heard Marcus laughing through the shadows. “I’ve got you now,” he whispered. “Nowhere to run anymore, little dove.”I screamed for my life, and the next thing I knew, I was waking up drenched in sweat, screaming while Rachel held me down and whispered soothing words

I still couldn’t believe that Ethan had bought the mansion just like that. He made it seem like it was a pair of shoes or a painting he liked. It all happened so fast, and I just couldn’t believe it. The first week was entirely chaotic. We spent our evenings shopping for furniture, arguing about the best fabric for the couch and whether a vintage record player was essential or rubbish (I won that round of arguing). I spent most days over at the house, telling the delivery men where to put things, and helping out where I could. Ethan suggested hiring an interior designer to handle everything, but there was something so cozy and comforting about doing it myself that I just wasn’t ready to give up. Besides, it wasn’t difficult at all. But the hardest part came the night Rachel flew back from her trip, and I had to tell her that I was moving out.From the moment she walked into our apartment and dropped her bags at the door, her face fell when she saw the boxes in the living room.There

MARCUSI didn't want to do it initially. He didn't deserve a quick death, after all. But sometimes, when someone pisses you off too much, you just have to take care of things. And when you find out that the bastard who tried to harm the woman you love was only going to a mental institution instead of the jail he deserved, you just have to take care of things yourself. I stood on the balcony and stared down at the city sparkling beneath me while a cold breeze swept past. The sun had already set, but Manhattan was still as loud as ever, with horns blaring down below, people yelling constantly , and the wailing of a siren in the distance. No one would notice me up here, staring down at them and savoring my latest victory. I took a slow sip of my whiskey, letting the warmth roll down the back of my throat as I leaned on the cold steel railing. The evening was perfect, and I couldn’t have been happier after getting the call. Chris was dead, just like I intended. The report said he’d be

From the moment we pulled up in front of the mansion, my mouth fell open and it stayed like that permanently. The house looked like something out of a movie. It was so huge, and my eyes nearly rolled back into my skull as we walked in. There was a grand staircase which swept upward like it belonged in a castle, and sunlight streamed in through the large windows which made everything look so bright and golden."You've got to be kidding me," I whispered, taking in the beauty of the house. "This is actually insane.""Wait til you see the kitchen," Ethan said as he walked up behind me and took my hand in his. "You could set up a football game in it"When we walked into the kitchen, I knew he wasn't exaggerating. There were two kitchen islands which were so far apart that you probably couldn't even smell what someone was cooking from across the kitchen. There were so many shelves and drawers that it looked more like a convenience store than a home kitchen. Every room we walked into fel

Ethan was discharged the very next day, and I took him back to my apartment. Rachel had traveled down to Miami for a conference, so it was just the two of us in the house. After he’d taken a shower and eaten the lunch I prepared, he immediately sat down to call a real estate agent. “Is that really necessary?” I asked as I packed up the plates from the dining table. “Shouldn’t you be getting some rest?”“I’ll rest once we have our new home,” he said. “Buying a house usually takes a very long time to process, and I don’t have the time nor the patience to wait too long. The sooner we get started, the quicker we can be done with this.”I left him to his phone call, while I washed up in the kitchen. I could hear him talking in a sharp tone, using his CEO voice where he made it obvious that things were going to go his way, no matter what. I could have sat down and stared at him for hours when he talked like that, but I had other things to do. Like calling Richard Jones and telling him wha

I'd thought about seeing Marcus face to face again for a very long time now. I'd imagined standing across from him, looking dead into his eyes and showing him that I wasn't afraid of him anymore. I'd thought about how I was going to stand my ground, and not let him see the fear he'd once inflicted upon me. But standing right there in front of him, looking into those malicious eyes that had tormented me for years, I just couldn't do it. My knees began to shake, and I almost buckled to the ground in terror as the world fell away and it was just the two of us.And then he started to walk towards me. It took every bit of strength in me to not turn around and flee. I visibly shrank the closer he got, and a wave of panic washed over me as I realized that I had nowhere to go. If I turned and ran now, then I would be running for the rest of my life. And that was the last thing I wanted. So I stood my ground, stuck out my chin defiantly, and looked him dead in the eye. I took a deep breath

For a while, I just sat there and stared at Nate. I couldn't process the fact that he was here, and as my brain slowly booted up again, I felt Ethan tense beside me. "Nate, what are you doing here?" I asked. "Offering my condolences," he said. "I heard about the accident, and I just knew I had to come here as soon as I returned."He was more tanned than the last time I'd seen him, and his hair was a little bit longer. He looked like he'd come straight from the beach, in his plain white shirt and khaki pants. It was so different from the man in the tailored suit who strutted about like he owned the building. And yet, even now, there was an air of confidence about him as he stood in the middle of the room and stared at us. “Why the long faces?” he asked. “Did someone die?”“What the fuck are you doing here?” Ethan asked, attempting to stand up before I held him down. “I heard you were sick,” Nate said. “Oh, I mean shot. It’s all over the news. I just got back from Paris, so I though

Ethan ended up taking longer than we expected to get discharged, and he ended up staying in the hospital for two weeks. During that time, he had to get a lot of therapy so he could move his left arm again, because some nerves had been damaged and they needed to heal properly. I stayed with him the entire time, only leaving to shower and get a new batch of clean clothes when I had to. But otherwise, we just sat together and talked. He wasn't in too much pain, so mostly we had enough time to just sit and talk about life. It was on the thirteenth day that we spoke about what he told me in the cabin. He didn't want to talk about it when I brought it up, but I managed to convince him that it was necessary. This was the only way to clear his conscience, so he could finally be free of the guilt that he had carried after all these years. "But what if we find out that I was the one who killed him?" he asked quietly, staring out the window. "What if it's confirmed that I'm a murderer?""I kn

MARCUSI swear I could smell the pig even from outside the door. My blood was boiling even before I walked into the room, but it took a monumental effort to keep myself in check. I had to be quick. It shouldn't take longer than five minutes. Thankfully, the cop standing by the door didn't say anything as I walked in. He just gave me a polite nod, and he stepped aside as I walked in and shut the door behind me.Chris looked like a man who’d gotten into a cage fight with a gorilla. He was bruised all over, and several parts of his face were swollen, with one eye almost completely shut. His bottom lip was split open like a rotten fruit, and both of his hands were cuffed to the bedrails as if he was some sort of rabid animal. It was an amusing sight, which perfectly suited the bastard who’d tried to take Olivia from me. He shifted slightly when he saw me, then he flinched in terror. I saw the recognition in his bloodshot eyes, then confusion as he blinked several times, then something

The first thing on my mind when I woke up was Ethan. I bolted out of bed instantly, and I had to grip the bed frame as I swayed and nearly toppled to the ground. I felt like my brain was trying to explode from my skull, and the ringing in my ear was constant. I had to sit down on the bed once again, and it took me a few seconds to regain my breath and take in my surroundings. The room was eerily quiet, so much so that I could only hear the low humming of the air conditioning. I shifted slightly on the stiff bed, and I cursed aloud as my joints aches from how long I'd been curled up. My mouth was incredibly dry, and my skin felt so clammy. Every inch of me felt like it was protesting the simple act of waking up, and it was like I hadn't slept at all.But the guilt cut through the fog. How long had I been out? What if Ethan had woken up already? And I was just sitting here like a ditz and worrying about something ridiculous like hunger. Slowly, I dragged myself to my feet and made m
