Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes Chapter 13
Jace's POV."I couldn't help admiring you from the top floor. So I came downstairs to see you and meet with you. And I overheard your conversation. Who was that?" I asked Clara, and she blushed and looked away from me, as she looked at the gate."Was it Martin?" I asked her, as ever since I heard her mention that name, and the way she blushed when saying it, it made me jealous to think that Clara was cheating on me."No. It's not Martin. It's a Luca, my older brother. You know that he traveled for a broadcasting event that he had to give an account on. So he couldn't attend the wedding, and he has to call me to apologize. As he just got back home. But he asked why I allowed Celine to attend the modeling shows abroad instead of speaking with you to postpone the wedding. So I told him that you refused," Clara looked so nervous as she finished speaking, and I sighed."I couldn't wait any longer. After this year, I will be 36 years old. And you do expect me to remain single for that long.

Celine's POV."Yeah. I knew what she was going to wear. Like we are twins, so what do you expect. We have our arrangement on what to wear during the week," I told Jace just as I settled on the chair beside him. Like I wasn't expecting the broadcasting channel to display the event that my twin sister went to.Jace had this growing suspicion that I wasn't Clara. And my duty was to make him believe that I am Clara.Tina arrived and told me, "I have bought the frozen chicken and fresh pepper that you ordered for, Madam.""Oh. That was fast," I replied to Tina happily as I rose from the couch and looked at Jace. Who was focused on the television and trying to figure out if I am the real Clara or not. Well, he should blame it on my twin.As I stood up from the couch, I told him, "I have to go and prepare lunch now.""Alright." Jace looked away from me to the television, still curiously watching my twin.I looked away from the television and went into the kitchen to make a pot of rice and chi

Celine's POV."Good evening, Mom," I greeted my mother, and she replied, "Celine. We have been trying your number to know how it has been going between you and Jace. I hope that he hasn't found out yet that you are not his real wife?""Mom, you know that I cannot be having this type of conversation with you. Jace almost found out the truth about the fact that I am not Clara, and that's a risk that you are all putting me into," I told my mother in a low voice. As I was afraid that the mansion could have CCTV footage."Mmm. Clara caused this. She should have told us that she wanted to travel, and Luca begged her to postpone the wedding, but she said Jace refused. How is he? Did he touch you and sleep with you? I cannot sleep well last night as I got really worried that he would find out if you refused to let him touch you."I sighed and rolled my eyes."Mom, that is part of the deal, or what did you expect from a newly married woman? That Jace and I will only be looking at each other in

Celine's POV:"Have you seen my husband?" I asked Tina once I came downstairs into the living room. "Yes, Madam. Chief went to his home office with his assistant, Roy," Tina replied with a warm smile and I smiled back, "Thank you."I made my way to the home office's through Tina's direction as she didn't suspect that I am not my twin sister.It raised my suspicions to chat with Clara and to know how many times that she had visited the mansion before she ran away.As I arrived at Jace's home office door, I stood there nervously wondering what he and his assistant were discussing about.I did not want to eavesdrop on them or look like I was spying so I hesitated to knock. However the door opened and Roy came out and offered me a warm smile."I am leaving now, Madam," Roy said, as he seemed like a man in his late 20s."Alright. Take care," I smiled at Roy and watched him walked away. Then I knocked at Jace's office door and his deep voice welcomed me, "Come in."Nervously, I pushed the

Celine's POV:I finished shopping in less than an hour, then I got back to the Jeep to meet Roy."I'm done," I told him with a smile, as he stood beside the Jeep and waited for me to complete my purchase.Once we were done, I got into the back of the Jeep while Roy entered the driver's seat, and shut the doors. Then he drove the car back to Jace's mansion.Earlier, I had taken two pills from the contraceptive I purchased, despite feeling guilty, before I went to the mall to shop for some dresses.I planned on visiting my parents' house to gather a few of my things since I lived there before Clara disappeared.Although Clara and I had similar dresses, I don't like those exposed clothes that were in the closet in Jace's master bedroom.Roy continued driving as the night fell. A few minutes later, we arrived at the estate grounds where Jace's mansion was.I watched as the security men unlocked the gate and welcomed us into the mansion.I could feel my heart beating so rapidly in my chest

Jace's POV:I marched back to my home office to go through the rest of the project I had in helping the low-class families in some community and poor villages. As I had many businesses running under the Augustus Corporation.However, my mind kept hovering around the fact that Clara isn't the woman with me.This feeling deep within my heart cannot be ignored.First, the way Clara has acted on our wedding day baffled me. Instead of looking elated that she was getting married to me, she appeared tense, like she was forced to marry me.On our bachelor's eve, I got a phone call from Roy that information reaching him was that Clara had traveled out of the country.I was stunned and tried calling her number, but it was already too late as she had switched it off.I wanted to call the Mason family to ask for Clara's whereabouts, but I didn't want to raise doubt and disturb the happy friends that had come to celebrate with us.'Why do I still feel this way?' I asked myself as I turned on my co

Jace's POV:"No, Sir," Esther's eyes widened in shock as she replied, "I don't think Madam is different. I think she is happy about the marriage and happy to be here with us.""Mm. You're right. I thought the same, and it's nice to hear your thoughts," I offered them a polite smile, and they sighed with relief."You both can leave and ensure to be nice to my wife and help her with whatever she wants. And be mindful that I have CCTV monitoring the mansion at all times. Is that clear?""Yes, Chief," Esther and Tina replied, and I dismissed them from my office.However, I still wanted to watch the past memories of me and my wife before our wedding, and also, now that we are together, and this single day that has blown away after we shared the wedding vows.Differences to spot.While the Clara before our wedding had long nails, her recent appearance doesn't display any of that. No long nails or eyelashes, but they both have nose rings and multiple earring piercings.I looked at the recent

Jace's POV:Edwin drank from his own glass cup and replied, "I don't think so. I think you should enjoy the moment and pretend with them that you are not aware of their scheme.""And you expect me to continue sleeping with Clara's twin, and pretending that I didn't know that she was not my real wife?" I asked Edwin, glaring at him, and he laughed."Yes. Or what do you expect me to advise you? You have already slept with her, so just continue with the flow.""You're crazy, Edwin. How can you suggest to me to continue with such sin? I cannot do that," I told him as I was gradually becoming drunk."Hmm. I don't know what to advise you about. You have a political campaign coming up, and if the people find out that you slept with your wife and her sister, it will ruin your good works, and the people will mock you for it. So don't act like you know the truth, until Clara is back," Edwin advised me, and I sighed.I have a campaign coming up next month, and I cannot allow this to ruin my repu

Jace's POV:Mandy and I visited the local community that I had in mind. The roads were bumpy, and the kids and families had gathered to receive my gifts. Security men lined up as I spoke to them about helping to create more job opportunities, opening more healthcare centers, and providing water supply for them.My team and I were there to provide the community with foodstuffs, as we had a truck loaded with rice and beans, which arrived at the venue.By 3 p.m., we finished sharing all the gifts, and I went back to my car with Mandy after greeting a few elders in the community.I had the security men stationed around, and no interviews were granted.Just as Mandy and I settled into my black Maybach, she asked me, "So, tell me, Jace. When next are you going on another event like this? It feels like I am your real wife."I rolled my eyes and glanced away after seeing Mandy's bashful expression."You still haven’t gotten enough of the fact that I only see you as my best friend and my siste

Celine's POV:I finished baking a lovely white cake when Lola came into the kitchen and said, "Madam, someone is here to see you?""Who?" I asked her nervously, and she replied, "Mr. Enzo."My heart skipped multiple beats upon hearing that Martin was here to see me.Why was he here to see me? I thought that I told him that I had travelled abroad to represent my twin sister.I became anxious as I saw Lola waiting for me to be through.Though I have students that learn how to bake from me, I didn't have classes with them on that particular day."Alright. I will be there in a minute," I went to wash my hands and take off my apron as Ava went to get lunch. Though she offered to get me lunch, I was already used to eating snacks as my lunch because I got so busy baking.As I came out to the showroom where I sampled most of my baked goods, I was stunned to see Martin wearing a yellow top and black trousers with black shoes.As I tried to maintain a stern gaze to look at him, since I knew tha

Jace's POV As I arrived at my company, I made my way to my office on the top floor. I had some business that I control in the city aside from my job as a politician.My staff greeted me on arrival before I made my way into the elevator.When I arrived at the top floor where my office was, I went inside and had a seat. Some partners came to see me and congratulated me on my marriage. I shut the interviews as I was not ready to grant any interview with the media related to my wife and my marriage.As I got busy, I decided to contact Roy to know what was going on with Celine and her bakery shop.My office featured a touchscreen television on the wall, for me to watch and listen to any trending news. And the entertainment news about my wife caught my attention because the television was on. After watching the news video about my wife, my phone call with Roy connected, and he let me know that he had taken care of the interviewers.Listening to Celine's comments regarding that she cannot

Celine's POVI sat nervously at the rear of the car, watching Roy drive me down to my bakery. He didn't even need to ask me for directions as he drove the car to my bakery shop and parked."Have you been to this area before?" I asked him, my voice filled with anxiousness, and he smiled."Yeah. I have been to your shop once before. But you didn't know me," he replied, his voice filled with happiness, but I frowned."My shop? No, I guess it was Celine you met," I replied, feeling my heart beat skyrocket. But I placed a hand over my chest to remind myself that Jace mustn't find out.I had never seen Roy before. Or maybe I had, but I couldn't seem to remember it."Yeah. I just came to buy some donuts and some cookies when I escorted you for your wedding shopping. I just thought you must have forgotten, but I was here with you," Roy said, his tone collective, and I smiled."Alright. I get forgetful, but this is my twin sister's shop, not mine. I will call you when I close for the day, as I

Jace's POVI knew that Celine was faking it and that it was her sister's bakery shop. As she looked stunned to hear me say that it was her shop, meaning she was the owner.Celine and Clara might have looked alike, so you can hardly tell their differences, but they had different behaviors, which was easy for me to detect on the first day.They don't have the same spirit, even when their zodiac signs and skin color are the same.Celine was more free-spirited around me than Clara was. I felt suspicious of what Clara was up to when she was with me.I cannot say for sure if Clara truly loves me, but I knew that she loves my money and my dick, which was why, she traded her twin sister to be with me.I could have opened my heart to love Celine, but she was playing her part well, pretending to me that she was Clara. My only concern now, was that I need a child to take over my business, and to become my heir. So, since Celine was available to perform all the wife duties with me that Clara was

Celine's Point Of View;"Celine, what has come over you? You actually blocked me for almost a week and you turned off your phone too?" Clara yelled over the phone call, and I sighed."I needed some time to think. Was that not what I told you, that I have to think through your new request," I told her, and she calmed down."That's fine. But you shouldn't have blocked me. How do I reach out to you to know what you are up to?" Clara asked, and I sighed."I will update you about anything important. As for now, there's nothing important to know about, except that some journalists are lurking around my bakery and requesting interviews from me. And I need to grant them the interview. I will tell them that I am Celine and I am just helping you out, like we have discussed, and nothing will affect your career or winning the award," I told Clara, and she sighed with relief."Thanks, sis. But you should unblock me. It ruined my mood the previous week, seeing that you had blocked me. I was unable

Celine's Point Of View;A week later, it was a bright Monday morning. I still cannot believe that I am living with my twin sister's supposed husband, Jace Augustus.I woke up in the bed this morning in my room, which was supposed to be Clara's room if she were to be around. But you know, Clara had traveled and she was not making any attempt to return back.I had blocked her calls too, and was looking forward to the date that she will be back. The awards ceremony was to happen in the month of May, so hopefully, Clara will be back.I slept alone in this room and I recalled that I have to go to my shop, which I told Jace was my twin sister's shop.Jace also said that he was resuming his political work and he will need me to attend some event with him before I can be free to visit my shop, but Ava has been understanding and she doesn't like to poke her nose into my affairs unless I tell her. She let me know when she needed money to support her family and she doesn't steal from my shop or

Jace's POV.I knew that Celine was troubled with her guilt of pretending to me that she was my real wife when she was not.I wanted to tell her that it was okay, and she doesn't have to feel that way. And I knew that she was fake.But I don't want our marriage to end yet, or for her to return to Martin.Why do I feel this way about Celine? I'm not falling in love with her, right?I shut my eyes at the memory and still my heart with the reminder that I do not love her and only Clara. But with Clara's betrayal, I will be awaiting her return to the city.I hurried with my bath. Once I finished, I got out of the bathroom and entered the room, but Celine was not there.I heard her voice, sobbing in the closet, and my fist clenched."Clara," I called her fake name, even when a part of me wanted to call her by her real name."Babe," I slowly pushed the closet door to unlock, and Celine quickly picked up a cloth to wipe her eyes as she did not want to turn to look at me."What is the matter,
Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes Chapter 34
Celine's POV."Oh no! What's all this news?" I continued scrolling through the news until I saw that it was captioned from what Clara had told them on her last interview on a red carpet runway show.I sighed with relief, and I could have freaked out if it were someone else with evidence. Trying not to bother myself about the news, I laid peacefully on the bed in my room and fell asleep.Later, I was awoken by the doorbell sound. Getting out of the bed, I wore my slippers, then I marched to the door and pulled it open.Jace stood there, looking at me with his desirous gaze. The night had fallen, and I made way for him to enter the room."Are you sleeping before? I hope I hadn't disturbed your peaceful sleep?" Jace asked me with a smile, but I shook my head and replied, "No, I was about to wake up, I guess. How about your best friend? Has she gone home?"Jace took a closer step to meet me. He held me by my shoulder and said, "Yeah, Mandy has. She said that she enjoyed the meal and will
