Jace's POV

I 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

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 74

    ~Clara's POV~I was nervous when Jace came into the small hospital room and said that his mother would like to speak with me.I was anxious, partly because I knew that I wasn't the real child's mother. But Jace wouldn't find out; I have my subordinate keeping tabs on Dr. Paul, and he dared not play smart with me.I thought about my twin sister. How would she have been feeling now that I had taken her child away from her?This was our initial agreement for me to take the baby that was Jace's child, and she can move on with her life, but Celine wanted to play smart with me.I wasn't ready to carry a child in my womb, and I knew that even though I discussed surrogacy with Jace, he wouldn't agree."How are you doing, my wife? I heard that you have given birth," Jace's mother spoke to me with a warm voice, and I replied, "I am fine, Ma. It's been God all through.""Don't worry. I will come around and see you tomorrow and bring many herbs to help you recover fast and to recover your shape a

    ~Jace's POV~As we arrived at the room where Clara was, I was shocked to see her holding my baby in her arms."Where's my child?" I asked as I walked into the small room.Clara looked nervous, and she wore a shower cap on her head and wore a blue garment that I assumed was the hospital dress for their patients."Here he is," Clara presented the newborn baby to me.The room had bright light, as I assumed they were either using a generator to power the local hospital."Isn't he adorable? He looks like you," Clara blushed over the child that was so full and big in my arms. I hadn't carried a baby before, and I was anxious to hold the little one.He has fair skin, so I cannot tell if he looked like me or Clara."He is adorable," I said, taking in the poor state of the room, and I told Clara, "I do not like the state of this hospital. I will have you and the child transferred to a bigger hospital.""No, Jace. I cannot go to a bigger hospital. I have gone there several times when I went int

    ~Celine's POV~I was in labor pain as they set up the instruments to use in cleaning up my baby.I already knew that the baby would be taken away from me. As much as I wanted to touch and hold my child, the nurse refused to let me take the child.I watched with teary eyes as my baby was snatched away from me, and I begged."Let me hold him a little. Please," I begged Nurse Theresa. But she shook her head and replied, "No. You are not allowed to touch him. We do not trust what you will do to him."I looked at Nurse Theresa's face with shock. I knew that she was acting under Clara's threat. My twin sister had turned into someone cruel because she had money, power, and influence in this city.I couldn't do anything, and I watched them take the little child away as they silenced him.At first, my baby was crying, probably longing for my touch and warmth, but they put something in his mouth and maybe put him to sleep.I cried, laying on the bed, and I felt another contraction in my tummy.

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 71

    Clara's POV.Pretending with Jace hasn't been easy as I got a moonbump that matched my skin tone and pretended with him that I am pregnant. I didn't allow him to touch my tummy, and of course, he did not come anywhere close to me. He had been devastated since Celine was declared missing, and I wasn't ready to admit to him that I knew anything about my sister's disappearance.Jace worked overtime and came back home late. Today, I called his line, seeing that it was past 6 pm. I should have given him up and left him, but that would mean that I lost. No way, not after putting my twin through all that test.Doctor Paul had called me and told me about Celine's pregnancy. Her tummy was big, so we were expecting a big and healthy baby. It made me anxious about how we would swap the baby at birth. Dr. Paul agreed that he would send his nurse to deliver the baby, and I had to agree with him to meet at a special hospital and not the high-class private hospital that Jace would have preferred his

    Jace's POVFive months passed, yet the whole world seemed to move on as the search for Celine became futile.I searched every nook and cranny around that area, hoping to see Celine again. But she was gone. We searched some of the houses, while others were inaccessible because the owners weren't around.We didn't find the taxi at any of the houses, which was the worst part, as I didn't realize how smart the abductors were.The only house where we saw a car was an old one, and we were told the owner had traveled to the village four years ago.I told Roy to end the search, believing that Celine had chosen to move on with her life.It was all my fault. If I hadn't pretended with her, if I hadn't listened to Edwin and confronted Celine about why she had to take Clara's place...I sat in my office on the top floor of my establishment when my secretary called me."Sir, Ms. Mandy is here to see you," she informed me, and I quickly picked up my handkerchief to dab the corners of my eyes.I cou

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 69

    Celine's POVI woke up with a slight headache, looked around the room, and recalled what had happened the previous day. I had been abducted, and my abductors had taken my blood samples to run a pregnancy test on me.Who would be so desperate to know if I was pregnant? I had a hunch it was Clara, but why would she order for me to be abducted?I had already told her that I would leave Jace and not get involved with him. It was painful watching Clara and Jace reunite despite Jace's pretense with me. He knew all along that I was faking it with him, yet he used me. How could he?I was sobbing without realizing it. Now, I didn't know if I would get out of here alive.What about my baby? Does Clara want to harm the innocent child?The sound of the door clicking open startled me out of my trance, and I raised my head to see a middle-aged man enter with a young woman."Good morning, Celine," he said softly. He wore a white shirt, black trousers, and black slippers. He was dark-skinned and slig
