Chapter 10

Author: Mr. Trouble
The fallout from the Fitzgeralds' massive debt arrived even faster than I had anticipated.

Elliot was taken away for questioning, Diana was cornered at the company entrance by creditors, and the once-glamorous lobby of the Fitzgerald Group was plastered with formal demand letters.

Poppy received a legal notice as well. With the signed prenuptial agreement, the forged signature, and the identity impersonation, she was required to cooperate with authorities on every single count.

    The fallout from the Fitzgeralds' massive debt arrived even faster than I had anticipated.Elliot was taken away for questioning, Diana was cornered at the company entrance by creditors, and the once-glamorous lobby of the Fitzgerald Group was plastered with formal demand letters.Poppy received a legal notice as well. With the signed prenuptial agreement, the forged signature, and the identity impersonation, she was required to cooperate with authorities on every single count.She sat in Mike’s office holding the notice, her voice raspy from weeping. "I just wanted to be Mrs. Fitzgerald..."Mike looked at her. "Now you are."Poppy’s sobbing came to a sudden halt.This was likely the first time she realized that a title didn't just bring diamond rings, wedding dresses, and the envy of onlookers. It brought crushing liability, too.Mom ended up selling the house she had originally saved for Poppy. The final closing price was far lower than she had hoped, but because she was despe

    Poppy made her move to run at four in the morning.She wore a beige coat that matched mine, carried an identical suitcase, and even tied her scarf the exact way I usually did. Watching her leave through the security camera, I noticed she had even applied the same subtle makeup I normally wore.She truly believed that as long as she looked like me, she could dump her problems on me and walk away. What she didn't realize was that I had already replaced my identification and reported my old copies lost long ago.There weren't many people at the station.The early morning waiting area was bathed in stark, cold white light, with the PA system repeatedly reminding passengers to present valid identification for real-name verification.Poppy pulled her hat brim lower and handed over the ID.The machine beeped, and a bright red light flashed. The station employee checked the screen, then looked up at her. "Please take off your mask."Poppy’s hand trembled visibly. "I have a cold."The e

    When the chat history was leaked, Mom was the first one to panic.She called Diana over and over again, but nobody answered. Desperate, she tried explaining things to our relatives, claiming Poppy just felt bad for her older sister and that the Palmers had no intention of taking advantage of the Fitzgeralds.Nobody bought it, though.The Fitzgeralds' creditors moved even faster than our relatives. Mom was in the middle of screaming at me in the living room when the news broke that the family's bank accounts had been frozen."Your sister is already in this state! How much further are you going to push her?!"The words had barely left her mouth when her phone rang. A representative from the bank informed her that two properties under her name were involved in a guarantee dispute and required her cooperation in the investigation.Mom leaned against the sofa for support, the color draining from her face bit by bit.Poppy heard it, too. Her very first reaction wasn't fear, but crying

    Mike’s office was located on the twenty-seventh floor in the city center.Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the sky was overcast and gray. Poppy sat across from me, gripping the statement tightly. Dark circles hung under her eyes from a sleepless night, yet the moment she saw me, she forced her shoulders straight."Willow, now that we're here, you can stop pretending. You signed this statement."She pushed the paper to the center of the desk.On the signature line, the name "Willow Palmer" was written. It really did look remarkably like mine, right down to the upward flick on the final stroke.I took a glance. "Looks pretty convincing."Poppy’s eyes lit up.That was what she had loved hearing most growing up. Looking like me, looking real enough to confuse everyone, looking so convincing that she could take my things with a clear conscience.Mom had come along, too. Sitting to the side, her face looked haggard, but the first words out of her mouth were still the same."Wil

    Poppy naturally refused to step outside. She double-locked the door and sat in front of the vanity, her shoulders shaking violently as she wept. Half an hour ago, she was boasting in front of the cameras that she was Mrs. Fitzgerald. Now, those exact three words turned into the heavy pounding of debt collectors on the door.Mom paced back and forth. "Willow, go explain it to them right now! The whole thing was just a big misunderstanding!""A misunderstanding about what?" I asked her. "She wore the wedding dress herself. She read the vows. She signed her own name."Cornered by my words, Mom scowled and turned her attention to comforting Poppy instead.Wiping her tears, Poppy grabbed her phone. "I’m going to show everyone how ruthless you really are!" Within minutes, she drafted a long post and shared it to her Instagram as well as the family group chat. The narrative was crafted fast, claiming that her sister set her up to take her place in the marriage. Apparently, I’d been

    The moment the door to the green room swung shut, the applause and chatter from the outside were completely cut off.The blush on Poppy’s face couldn’t hide how pale she looked. Diana pushed a document in front of her, no longer even bothering to fake a polite smile."Sign it."Poppy took a step back. "I was just filling in for my sister to finish the ceremony..."Diana snorted. "Mrs. Fitzgerald, the ceremony isn't over yet."That title of Mrs. Fitzgerald had been a trophy Poppy was so desperate to steal just minutes ago. Now, it read like a death sentence.Poppy turned to Elliot. "Elliot, tell them! Tell them I didn't mean it like that!"Elliot avoided her gaze. "Poppy, the Fitzgeralds need you right now. Just help us get through this hurdle, and I won't treat you wrong."I had heard those exact words before—at the bridal shop, the menu tasting, and every single time he needed me to play along. His gentleness was nothing more than a thin veneer hiding a mountain of debt.Fina
