After dinner, Mrs Charlotte took the twins to their temporary bedroom. The room had two beds and was exquisitely decorated, just like Vanessa's room. “Thanks for everything, Mrs Charlotte”. Both Eric and Derek greeted her as she left the room. Moving on, Derek took the two blue-luggages and put them inside the big wooden wardrobe. Also, he didn't bother to remove the clothes from the luggages because he was feeling lazy to arrange them in the clothes hangers. On the other hand, Eric left his backpack on the floor after he had taken his laptop from it. Furthermore, he went to the bed he had chosen and sat on it, before questioning Derek, “Did you remember to bring your own laptop, little twin?”. “Em, yeah, big twin. But why did you ask? Are you up to something again?”. Derek replied to Eric's question and also asked. “Of course I'm up to something, Derek. I must figure out Xavier's real identity, and his relationship with our big sister”. Eric replied sincerely to Derek since ther
Eric and Derek's hearts started beating fast as they were still trying to come up with excuses. With the way Vanessa was staring at them, they were feeling really nervous. Just when Vanessa was about to say another word, her cell phone rang. She stared at Eric and Derek closely, before she went ahead and answered the call. “Hello”. “It's me, Nessa. You finally picked my call”. As soon as Vanessa heard Alexa's voice, her face darkened. In fact, she hung up the call almost immediately. “Gosh, Alexa is just getting on my nerves! I can't wait to deal with her by using my hacki….”. Vanessa immediately stopped talking when she realised that she almost gave her secret away. “Hacking?”. Eric questioned Vanessa with suspicious eyes. “What hacking? Who said hacking?”. Vanessa immediately defended herself before she added, “You two still haven't explained to me how you found out about Xavier and I”. “About that….”. Eric couldn't finish talking because Vanessa's cell phone suddenly beeped tw
‘Xavier really gotta be joking with me’. Vanessa thought and furrowed her eyebrows in the process. To be honest, if Vanessa could punch Xavier's face right now, she'd definitely do it, because to her, Xavier was being too extra. ‘If I reject this offer, then Xavier might use another means to make someone else spy on me. And since I don't want Xavier to be nosy about my business, I must accept Cole and keep a close eye on him instead’. Vanessa deeply sighed and massaged her forehead after she finished thinking of this. “Fine, you can be my personal driver, Cole. But on my own terms”. Vanessa announced all of a sudden. “What terms, Vanessa?”. Cole politely asked. Actually, he was so excited, because Vanessa didn't refuse him to be her personal driver. “It's simple. You may drive me to my destination at any time, but that's it. I don't want you to follow me around while I'm walking”. “Alright, Vanessa. I'm okay with that”. Cole said with a smile before he led Vanessa to Xavier's whit
“Yeah, Finn. I ought to come, since you still owe me an explanation about yourself”. Vanessa proudly replied to Finn as she took a seat next to him. After settling down, Vanessa went straight to the point and said, “I appreciate the new boss you hired for my cyber cafe, Finn. She's charismatic and is doing a great job already”. “Plus yesterday, you wanted to explain yourself to me. So, what's everything all about? What's your true identity? I want to know”. Vanessa added in a serious tone. Her beautiful pair of blue eyes were staring at Finn, as she was curious to understand who he truly was. On the other hand, Finn sighed deeply. This wasn't all. He also stood up from the seat he was sitting on, since he preferred to explain everything to Vanessa, while standing. “It happened like this….”. Finn started the story, and after halting to breathe in deeply, he continued, “Actually, Xavier was my childhood friend, even before I met you and became friends with you. To be honest, Xavier a
“W- who told you that I was attacked?”. Vanessa kindly took a step backwards as she calmly asked Xavier, who was still standing right in front of her. “I ought to know, after all, I'm your handsome hubby”. Vanessa almost coughed out blood after hearing what Xavier said to her in the presence of all these crowds!. ‘This guy is honestly unreadable! One minute he's all serious! And the next, he's behaving mischievously! Gosh, why in the world did I even involve myself with him? Or, I just remembered. I involved myself with him for a very valid reason’. Vanessa thought to herself and couldn't stop staring at Xavier's striking handsome face. Anyway, Vanessa was feeling so uncomfortable with the way people were staring at her and taking pictures. Actually, the shirt she was wearing felt light to her. As if Xavier knew what was going on in Vanessa's head. Like a gentleman, he removed his black coat and used it to cover Vanessa's upper body. Soon after, he held her slim hand and took her
“Em, Eric and I can help you out, but we're not sure if it'd work….”. Derek couldn't finish talking because Eric gave him a sign to stop talking. On the other hand, Eric was staring at Xavier with suspicious eyes when he said, “Do you really love my big sister? How can we even trust you're not like Nicholas?”. “Nicholas?”. Xavier muttered since he didn't quite understand Eric's point.“Yes. And as you already know, Nicholas is your half-nephew. Also, he used to be my big sister's fiancè. But to be fair, he used my sister's fame all this while, and when he heard that my big sister's company had gone bankrupt, he instantly broke up with her”. Eric explained while still staring at Xavier with suspicious eyes. Meanwhile, Derek suddenly gasped and said, “You're really smart, big twin. If Xavier really loves our big sister, he must prove to us that he's not after her fame”. The twins' behaviour was amusing to Xavier. In fact, he was pleased to see how the twins' were overprotective of V
‘Gosh! I wanted to come here alone, but Nicholas insisted on coming with me! My initial plan was to gain back Vanessa's trust and ruin her company for good! But who knew that Mr Xavier would be here with her?!’. Alexa gritted her teeth in annoyance as she thought to herself.The atmosphere in Vanessa's office totally became quiet. Alexa and Nicholas were just staring at everyone, and were not able to say anything. It reached a certain point, and Eric angrily rose from his seat. Eric pointed his finger against Nicholas and Alexa, and said to them, “How dare you show yourselves here after betraying my big sister?!”. “Yeah, how dare you guys?!”. Derek also stood up from his seat as he supported his twin brother, Eric. On the other hand, a feeling of rage was busy consuming Nicholas's heart. He was really jealous and disturbed, because Xavier was on Vanessa's side. Honestly speaking, Nicholas regretted breaking up with Vanessa. But most especially, he regretted becoming Alexa's fiancè.
The reflection in the mirror was a tall fair lady with long blonde hair that's shoulder length.“Gosh, this can't be happening to me!”. Vanessa let out a loud scream before hitting the large wall mirror that was in front of her. Staring at her bleeding hand, Vanessa didn't mind and grabbed her cell phone. She soon scrolled through the news and each second she saw an article about how her company was about to go bankrupt, she grew even more annoyed. “Nicholas, that jerk! What an idiot!. I can't believe he has been using me all these while!”. Vanessa muttered harshly, and when she recalled how Nicholas treated her earlier this morning, she lost all hope and sat down on the floor. Actually, exactly an hour ago, after hearing the news about her company's situation, Vanessa went to meet Nicholas who was her fiance. She asked for his help, but it turned out that he had been using her and her company's fame the whole time just because he wanted to have a stand as the heir to T&N Company, o
