Love, Lies, and Spies Chapter 11
It was all just part of an act.I was nothing more than a pawn in this elaborate game.Rachel had discovered Colin's affairs a long time ago. Even before that, he'd been embezzling money from the company to spend on mistresses. Rachel had put up with it.But then, Colin went a step further. He even hired a voodoo master to put a curse on Rachel, hoping she would die sooner so he could inherit the family fortune. That was the last straw for Rachel.So, from the moment Tracy walked into the company, everything had been part of Rachel's plan.And later, as they lured Colin into signing that contract, I became a piece in the puzzle.Everything that had happened at home had been a setup.Colin had installed security cameras at my place, so the sisters had been putting up a show for him, trying to make it look like there was some voodoo stuff going on. I had fallen for it too, since I had personally experienced all those things."So, that day in the CEO's office, that was all a

So, Tracy was the one who had cast the curse? I scratched my head. "That's pretty crazy."I had heard of this kind of thing before. It was pretty strange, but I never imagined it could be used like this."Listen to me!" Tracie's voice was filled with urgency.She went on to explain that at first, the vines would quietly grow inside the body, unnoticed, until they reached a certain amount. Once they did, they would multiply at an alarming rate. That was when the victim would suddenly develop a high fever and, eventually, die if untreated.Even the most skilled doctors wouldn't be able to figure out what caused it. They'd just think the person died from an illness.A gray line in the eye meant the vines weren't yet fully grown inside, and there was still a chance for recovery. But if the line turned pitch black, there was no hope left.Colin's eyes… the line had already turned black!"You need to leave now! I never thought my sister would do something like this. I really didn't kn

The two Tracys locked eyes.The second one, holding a takeout box, was clearly startled. With a sharp gasp, she took two steps back, and the box fell with a loud thud.Were they twins? They looked exactly alike!So, it was the Tracy by the door who had signed the agreement with my boss?"I told you to stay home! Who told you to come here?" the Tracy on the bed scolded.The Tracy by the door pouted like a child caught in trouble, but she didn't speak.She shot me a glare. "Brady, I'm warning you: Don't you even think about making a move on my sister!"Oh, so they were twins!One was named Tracy, the other Tracie.The pronunciation was the same, but the spelling was different.After giving a simple explanation, they began to explain the accident.The authorities had already concluded that Rachel had been driving under the influence. She was in the emergency room now, in serious condition, and the alcohol test showed she'd had quite a bit to drink. After they managed to stabili

Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of me. The car swerved instinctively, and then there was a sharp bang. We crashed.I felt dizzy, my head spinning. I could see someone by the roadside helping, but just before I closed my eyes, I swear I saw a familiar face.Tracy.When I woke up again, I was in a hospital bed.Aside from some scratches on my calf, everything else seemed fine.Sitting by my bedside in a black suit was someone I didn't expect. Tracy, her expression dark and cold, was glaring at me with eyes full of ice."Tracy—" I started to speak.Smack!A hard slap stung across my face."You jerk!" Tracy, usually so calm and quiet, exploded in rage. "How could you cheat on me?!"What the hell was going on with her?Before I could process anything, she snapped again, "How could you cheat on me?!"I was pissed now too. We were supposed to be a contract couple, free to see other people. I sure didn't say anything when she was fooling around with Colin! I raised my

The sudden sight scared me out of my wits. I rushed to find a mirror and pulled my bottom eyelid down to check my own eye.Thankfully, everything looked normal.But my coworker was not having it. He started cursing under his breath, clearly panicking, and shot up from his seat, ready to head straight to the hospital.Right then, my phone rang. It was a call from Tracy.I picked up, and her familiar voice came through the line. "Hey, Honey, where are you? It's the weekend and you're not home. Are you out with some other woman?"I said quickly, "Oh, I'm on my way back. Mrs. Booth called me into the office for some extra work."I hung up and hurried home.When I walked through the door, Tracy was in the living room wearing her pajamas, slicing up some fruit.Something clicked in my mind. I casually pulled out my phone and dialed a number. A second later, the ringtone echoed from inside the living room.Tracy paused, holding half a slice of apple, and looked at me."Sorry, wrong

Still, judging by the look on Rachel's face, she definitely wasn't joking.Without meaning to, I took a step back. Things were already way too complicated—I didn't want to make them worse.Rachel gave me a sweet, almost playful smile. "I know I'm forty now, but dressed like this, who'd actually guess? Go back ten years, and I could hold my own against that little vixen of yours, couldn't I?"I quickly nodded, trying to stay polite. "Yes, of course. You're a natural beauty.""Why are you just standing there? You can play dirty, but I can't?" she asked with a sharp gleam in her eyes."It's not that, Mrs. Booth. I've already done enough bad things—I can't keep doing this!""Why not?" Rachel clicked her heels, then her black silk stockings slipped free of her shoes. She curled a toe and gestured for me to come closer.This woman was determined to go all the way today.What the hell was I supposed to do now?Just as I was scrambling for a way out, Rachel seemed to lose patience.
