Chapter Twenty
"It's actually so sad that he didn't get the investors," Mrs. William complained to her daughter for the umpteenth time.
"Mum, did you call me in here just to tell me that? It's been three days and you've been singing that to me ever since," Lillian said with a frown. She was actually starting to regret arguing with Nathaniel. She had thought she would take the upper hand after the investors called him, but unfortunately he had not heard anything from them. Not that he told her, but she knew he would have been there to inform her about it if he eventually got the investors, but he hadn't done that.
She had been very worried ever since they got back and kept praying that Mr. Clifford would keep his word to her.

And that was because she had slept in that morning while thinking of what happened between her and Nathaniel the previous day. He did a great job in ruining her mood. She had actually been very happy that he got the investors, but did he really have to think that low of her? She did not even do anything wrong.Perhaps, he was right.

It had slipped down her left arm, revealing her inscription but Nathaniel had covered his eyes childishly. "No, no, no. It's okay. Wear it, please. You can return it later," Nath suggested.She smiled at his childish behavior and put back the suit very well. "Open your eyes," she said and he obeyed and saw her smiling. "Are you a baby? Why did you do that? It's not like I'm getting all my clothes off," she said with a broad smile which he returned. She had managed to crawl out of her sad mood with his help.Nath only managed to laugh. "I am glad that lighten your mood. I don't like seeing you sad," he said. He had decided to be nice and tolerate her rudeness, if she ever decided to do that again, until he got a feedback from the age

Lillian got off work on a Wednesday evening and decided to visit her who had been absent for some days without permission nor did she call her to tell her her whereabouts. She had even called her to inform her about her mother's sickness and she had promised to get back to her but hadn't for a few days now. She could not help but feel that something was going on with her best friend. She was not even sure if she could call her that anymore. She had been avoiding her and it had been really obvious.She decided to pay her a surprise visit and talk things out. She parked her car in front of her house and walked in. She made attempts to open the door, but it was locked from behind. That assured her that she was at home.She knocked a few times before the door opened and revealed her best friend who immediately looked shocked to see

"Who is she, Fred?"

Lillian finally decided to come clean with Nathaniel. She planned to tell him everything about her. There was no reason why she should be hiding it anymore. Dorcas has been fooling her all along when she had only wished only for her happiness. Never would she have thought her best friend was jealous of her. What did she have to be jealous of? Was it because she was born rich? That was, of course, no excuse. The one with the good heart? Everyone has a good heart, though not everyone uses them.She must confess she was really disappointed. But if there was anything she learned, it was never to place anyone's happiness before her own. She should have just listened to her mother. Now, she regretted it.

"I will follow you, Nath," Lillian said in a pleading tone,looking at him in the eyes. If what he was telling her was true, then she needed to go and see for herself."No, Lillian. You really don't have to, okay? This is my business and I don't want to drag you into it," he said, holding her shoulders. How could he let her see the woman he was in love with for twelve years? That would make her feel bad. He didn't want that.Nester was able to find the woman he had been looking for half of his life. He was very grateful at the moment that he chose to tell her about it or he would not have been able to meet her that soon. He needed to hurry home, but he shouldn't take anyone along. Not for the first time of their reunion

Nathaniel wrapped his hands around the woman and rested his chin on her shoulder, inhaling her scent. She smelled nice and he loved that. A tear fell down his face as he held tightly unto her. What was happening to him was a dream come true. "I really miss you, Lillian. So much that I almost lost myself. I'm so sorry," he said.Linda eased away from him and wiped her tears. "Why are you sorry?" She brought one of her hands to his cheek and caressed it with a smile."For not being able to find you earlier. It took me twelve years to see you again. I am so sorry," he apologized as he looked at her in the eyes. He saw something boldly written in there, yet he could not pinpoint what it was.

What Lillian was feeling was more than uncomfortable. She was really nervous and scared knowing that Nathaniel was home with a strange woman who was pretending to be her. What would they be doing at that moment? What if he really thought she was her and they started to get along? What if he fell in love with her? She could not help asking herself these rhetorical questions. She had tried calling his office but she kept being told that he was not in the office. Did he take the day off to spend time with the imposter?She did not realize when she started crying. She wiped her tears with the back of her hands, blaming herself for her misery.
