Chapter 12

“No, it really can't be true,” I murmur, shaking my head as I take a few steps back.

“I am afraid that it is, and if you don't agree with it, you just have to meet him in court.” The stupid lawyer smugly says before rising to his feet and walking out.

I barely see him leave through the bounds of tears that pour out of my eyes.

How dare that bastard?

My eyes prickle as laughter bubbles out of my throat. I can't hold it in as I tumble over in laughter.

Is this how cruel he gets? Bankruptcy, emotional instability, and a criminal record.

I went bankrupt because he put my company in loans, I went to jail, all because of my stupid love that was blind, and he dared to use it against me.

Emotional instability? After everything they did to me, he dares to accuse me of that.

The more I think of it, the more I realise that Derrick never for one day cared about me.

All those years together were a lie; it was all fake. That bastard lied to me for years.

    Chapter 18“How was it?” Clarissa asks as soon as I step into the living room, she is literally bouncing on her feet.“What's with all the excitement?” I question, not bothering to grace her own question with a response.“Heyyyyyyy! Don't answer a question with a question; it's rude.” She whines, pushing her lips forward in a pout.A light chuckle escapes from my lips, “If you turn on the TV, you would definitely know how it went, wouldn't you?” I ask, my lips stretching up in a side smile.I can't believe how calm I feel at the moment. Spencer did warn me that they would bite back; they should go ahead, but right now, I am just so happy that I took a step against them.Not that much of a big step, but a step nevertheless. Very soon, I will pay them back and get my daughter all to myself.“You are smiling, I guess it went well then,” Clary says, eyes shining as her fingers move to her hair as usual.I don't respond as I make my way to my room, sleep calling my name very loudly.~“CLA

    Chapter 17I slide off the bed, reaching for my phone as I dial my contact at the good morning show.“Hello, Mrs Florida, how may I help you? It's quite late.” Matthew, during an interview on the Good Morning show, asks through the phone, his voice heavy as he sounds annoyed.I don't pay heed to it.“Oh, Matthew, I was just wondering how much you said that was that package you needed to get the other day?” I ask, taking a strand of my hair as I roll it in between my fingertips.I hear shuffling at the other end, indicating that he is getting up, and I have his full attention.“Umm— it's just a thousand dollars. Why do you ask?” He questions, even though he already knows why.Matthew Adams, host of the Good Morning show, is one of the country's largest shows. He is in his forties with blond hair and black eyes, always dressed in fancy suits, even though there is nothing fancy about him.“It's fine, I will wire the money to you right now–”.“What do I need to do?” He cuts me off.Now, t

    Chapter 16“Mommy, I want to eat some apples. I am hungry.” That tiny voice that always gets me on edge sweeps into my ears.I snap my eyes away from my mirror, my mask still slightly wet on my face as I stop patting it down. “What am I supposed to do about it, huh? You want me to leave my precious routine and tend to your stupid hunger. Get out of my face.” I bark, sending a sharp glare her way.She sniffs, shuffling back as she turns to leave, but I reach out, grabbing her by the ear and squeezing.“Ahhhh, mommy, please stop. I am sorry.” She cries out, throwing her little legs in the air.“How many times have I told you never to show your face near me unless your father is around or we go for an interview?” I ask, pulling at her ear harder, not minding her tears or cries.“I am sorry, I am just so hungry, Mommy.” Her tears rush down like a river as her entire face goes red from crying.I let go of her ear, using my feet, I pushed at her tiny legs, causing her to fall on the hard t

    Chapter 15“What--who..how is that even possible? It's impossible?” Derrick stutters, eyes still as wide as saucers.“What do you mean?” Spencer asks, his voice dripping sarcasm as he watches his brother.The whole room is quiet for a while before it erupts in chaos, with questions coming from every angle.“Mr Derrick, why do you both look so much alike?” Someone asks.“Because I am Spencer Anthony, Derrick's twin brother and the CEO of Hale's industry.” The shock that ripples through the air is enough to make me smile.Yes, we are here to shake the world, and we have only just begun.I can't help but imagine Florida's face right now. That would feel so out of the world to watch, urgh.“That's impossible, right?”“There is no way Mr Derrick would have a twin whom we don't know.”“After all these years, why come out now?”“Mr Derrick, do you have anything to say regarding your brother?”“Yes, is he really the one or just an imposter?”Derrick's eyes wouldn't stop roaming all over Spen

    Chapter 14“So what is the first step? What do we do?” I ask, taking a step further into the room.Spencer waves his hand, dismissing the driver, who just slightly bows his head before leaving.“ Now, we storm their lives. My brother thinks I am dead because he tried to kill me. Seeing me alive will be our first step to revenge,” he states, running the tip of his fingers along the rim of his glasses.“And I am guessing we need to do that dramatically?” I question wanting nothing more than to disgrace that bastard of a husband.Nothing is more disgraceful than using the media that is their weapon against them. It would be so epic.“Go big or go home. I already had a conference booked; every single TV station, radio, and even newspaper would hear of this.” His lips curled up into a sly smirk.It's uneasy, but I don't really mind.This isn't the Spencer I knew years ago; he is different now.More calculated and cold. His eyes are dark and stoic, like they have seen the worst of times.“

    Chapter 13My whole body freezes as I stare at the words on my screen, my eyes snapping to look at Spencer so fast I wonder how my neck doesn't fall off.“How? How did you do that so fast? I haven't even signed an agreement with you yet.” I ask, my words tumbling out as I blink repeatedly.“Facts are baseless in the media world; all they need is a rumor, especially one coming right from my company source.” He shrugs like it's the simplest thing in the world.“Now to make it final, we just need to make an appearance.” He says, taking slow strides towards me.“You need not cry anymore, Clara, for I will make them burn.” He murmurs, his words sending tremors down my spine.“No one deserves you treating yourself like this for them. I am leaving now. Get some rest. Tomorrow you will come to the Hale industries and we will sign some documents, then we will make an appearance.” He instructs as if he had it all planned out.Words fail me as I find myself only nodding, “Good, they will pay, I
