Instead of driving her car, Yvette decided to ride a taxi on her way to Clyde’s house. Because if she’ll pretend to be her sister, she needed to act like she doesn’t know how to drive. Because people around Yvonne know for a fact that she can’t drive even with the numerous lessons that she took before.
After an hour of travelling, the taxi that she was riding finally entered a subdivision. That’s why she became attentive to her surroundings because she needs to tell the driver the right directions for them to arrive exactly at Clyde’s place.
Yvette never expected that she’ll find the information, from her sister’s random stories whenever they talk through text or call or video chat, useful at this moment. Like their house’s address and how it looks like, the name of their house helpers, and even the name of their gardeners. She knows every person that’s related to her twin because of how talkative she was. The reason also why she founds this pretend thing like a piece of cake.
But upon the thought of her sister, Yvette can’t help but smile sadly.
Now, who will tell her random stories like a kid?
Yvette closed her eyes and tried to think of happy thoughts to stop herself from being emotional. She needs to pull herself together so her plan will go like what she expected. She can’t fail. Because that will make her sister’s death go in vain and she can’t let that happen.
After telling the taxi driver the directions, Yvette finally arrived in front of a mansion-like house. Yvette already expected that Clyde’s house will be grand because she saw it from the pictures that Yvonne sent her before. But still, she can’t help but be amazed upon seeing it personally because it felt different.
The moment she stepped out of the car, two bodyguards immediately attended to her which startled her a bit but she immediately calmed herself.
“Welcome home, Ma’am Yvonne,” the guards greeted her politely with a bow.
“Thank you,” she responded as she mimics Yvonne’s way of speaking.
After greeting her, one of them proceeds to the door and opened it up for her. She confidently stepped inside the house like it was her turf and there she was greeted by another person. It was Auntie Alice, the only person in this place who is close to Yvonne.
“Ma’am Yvonne!” The old lady exclaimed as she run toward her with open arms.
“Auntie Alice!”
“Goodness! Where have you been, huh? We’ve been looking for you for days…” Auntie Alice uttered consecutively while hugging her.
“I’m sorry for not telling you but I just went on a vacation. That’s it…” Yvette trailed which is a lie. After she said that, Auntie Alice broke their hug.
“You should’ve at least told us or just me, Yvonne. If you want me to keep your vacation a secret then I can do that. I was worried sick for you, you know?”
Because of Auntie Alice’s genuine words, Yvette can’t help but feel bad. It made her wonder how will the old lady react if she knew the truth? But she was relieved a little. Because she learned that there is another person beside her who genuinely worries and cares for her twin sister.
“I’m really sorry, Auntie. But hey, I’m here now. You don’t need to worry anymore. I’m fine…”
“Yeah, right. It’s a relief that you’re back. For sure I can now sleep in peace tonight,” The old lady kiddingly uttered which made both of them chuckle a little.
“Anyways, since you’re here, do you want me to prepare you some snacks?”
“Sure, Auntie. Just bring it to my room, I’ll just take a rest.”
“Okay then,” Auntie Alice gave her a nod.
After that short conversation, Yvette took her chance to wander around the huge house. From the floor, up to the ceiling, every piece of furniture, all of those screamed luxury but surprisingly it wasn’t that overwhelming. Or maybe because she owns some luxury brand items that’s why she wasn’t overwhelmed by it?
But going back, she went upstairs to check their room. She didn’t struggle in finding the master’s bedroom because she knows where it is located. That’s why when she reached the door, she opened it without thinking that much and as if it was her room.
Yvette wandered her eyes around the entirety of the room. Just like the theme of the whole house, the room also screams simplicity yet elegance. A king-size bed with a side table, a wooden lamp, a set of leather sofa, carpeted floor, a chandelier, a study table, a walk-in closet and a wide window with thick curtains.
But her eyes stopped in a picture frame that was sitting on the bedside table.
It was a picture of a man and a familiar woman. It was a wedding picture of Clyde and Yvonne. Her twin was smiling so bright in the picture but Clyde was just wearing a serious face.
That made Yvette scoff in annoyance.
Goodness, Yvonne… I love you but why the heck did you let yourself suffer like this?!
After that, she went straight ahead to the walk-in closet. And the moment she opened it her face was mopped with disgust and it was like she was hit with a sudden realization.
She forgot that her twin’s fashion sense wasn’t the same as hers.
“Damn…” She whispered when she saw the majority of clothes which were long sleeves, turtle neck blouses, and polo shirts. “This won’t do.”
How will she wear these kinds of clothes in this hot and humid weather? If she did, then it will be torture to her skin! And as a fashion designer, these kinds of clothes don’t suit her stylish concept. Yes, she’ll continue pretending that she’s her twin sister but she can’t wear her clothes.
So, if someone pointed it out, let’s just say that within a month of her disappearance, a lot of changes happened. And that includes her choice of clothes.
After a series of searching, Yvette felt so relieved that she had some clothes that she can bear to wear in her twin’s pile of clothes. It was those clothes that she sends her whenever she goes shopping but she never saw Yvonne wear them because she said that the clothes were too revealing for her.She ended up choosing a yellow sleeveless tank top and white chiffon shorts. Casual but stylish.After that, she went out of the room to go to the kitchen. But as she was walking downstairs, her steps halted midway when she saw the door open and it revealed a man in corporal attire.It was the Clyde Smith.Seeing his figure right in front of her eyes, Yvette can’t help but grit her teeth and clench her fist in anger.So, this is what a devil incarnate looks like in person, huh?She saw how one of the guards, who entered the mansion with him, whisper something to his ear which made him glance in her direction and all of a sudden, they were meeting each other’s gaze. His eyes were void of any
"Rodney?” Yvette called the personal driver. “Yes, Ma’am!” the driver almost halted from his stance when he saw Yvette. The driver looked at her with confusion once. He’s not used to her clothes. Yvonne always dressed like there was a formal occasion every day with her long sleeve and long skirt, unlike the clothes he’s seeing today. “I’m coming out later after my yoga. Tell my husband I’ll use one of his cars.” The driver nodded. Yvette continued what she was doing in the garden. There’s a mat for her exercise while the cascading water on the fountain added to the peaceful ambiance of the big backyard. Oh, I hope the devil won’t come out of his den!Yvette started doing her exercise. She did some ballets from the past that’s why she’s a bit flexible. The difference between her and Yvonne, her twin is musically inclined, into arts, and introverted. She’s her opposite at everything. She does ballet and extreme adventures. They both grow up in an orphanage and got separated reason
Yvette drove herself to the nearest Mall to shop. She needs new clothes! She wants to use the two months left of her vacation before her work.And maybe two months of punishing Clyde is enough because she’s disgusted to pretend to be his wife that long. Seeing his face every day reminds her of her twin’s death. After that, she will reveal that her twin already died and it’s because of his cheating issue! Clyde will probably live miserably for a lifetime after knowing someone died because he’s an ass.I bet the motherfucker might dig his own grave just to repent for his sins…But Yvette has another mission. She wants to know the mistress. She wants to catch them red-handed. She wants to see the thick-faced bitch who has the guts to settle as a cheap mistress!Does she think I’ll let her breathe in peace too? My twin is just too nice to let them get away with their sins but I won’t tolerate them! Not on my watch!She shopped for all the clothes she need for a month. And yes, the used cr
Yvette opened some of the paper bags she bought to wear for the dinner. Yvonne used to talk about Clyde’s parents. Her twin sister is intimidated by the Smith family even though his mother is fond of her.Yvonne said Mrs. Smith was the reason why she got married to Clyde. She doesn’t like anyone for his son. And since Yvonne embodies all the standards she’s been looking for, she automatically convinced Yvonne’s parents to marry their son in exchange for merging.Clyde was scolded by his mother when Yvonne was gone missing for a month. It’s one of the reasons why Clyde wants Yvonne by his side to tame his mother.She chose the black sleeveless Chanel dress and paired it with high heels. She put her hair in a high ponytail and highlighted her features with makeup.She wore one of the pieces of jewelry from Tiffany and Co. The necklace hugged her neck like a choker with diamonds all over it.She took the fur shawl and sprayed herself a Chanel perfume and went out.She saw Clyde fixing th
Clyde couldn’t help to think about Yvette’s reaction. As if she’s disgusted to be with him. In his entire life, nobody treated him like he was a pest, dirt in someone’s eyes. Not until he saw how Yvette reacted. Was she so mad at me that… she was disgusted to be with me in a room? His jaw clenched and he couldn’t stop himself from getting angry about it. He’s scowling the whole dinner while Yvette was enjoying her wine as if Clyde’s presence beside her doesn’t matter to her at all. After dinner, they had their dessert while Mrs. Smith was showering Yvette with new gifts. “This is too much, Mama…” Yvette was stunned to see the luxurious items in front of her being presented by the maid. “Oh no. Don’t worry about it…” she smiled and sipped on her wine. Yvette’s eyes sparkled. It was nice to see the luxurious items but she realized it was given to her twin, not to her personally. “I can’t take it, Mama…” she said unconsciously. “Oh please… Yvonne! I said don’t think about it,” s
Yvette was wondering if it was their first time showering together. Or if Clyde and Yvonne already slept with each other. Yvonne didn’t tell her about those things. She doesn’t know whether she’s just shy to talk about it or there’s nothing really happened between them. If he asked Clyde about it, she might confuse him. And it was so unnecessary to ask about those things. What am I gonna ask? Hey asshole, did we fuck? God! He might think I lost my memory and investigate my whereabouts during those days I disappeared for a month!So she’s thinking the showing together thingy isn’t their first time because Clyde was confident about it carrying her. Well that was what she thought but the truth is, it was their first time. Clyde and Yvonne never shared intimacy with each other. The only intimacy they experienced is eating together during dinner with the family and being in the same room as husband and wife. Yvonna was first to finish showering and went out immediately to change clothes
"What do you mean by not your wife?" Damon asked curiously."That's what I'm talking about. He thinks she wasn't his wife," and Heron's chuckles followed while putting Clyde's shot in front of him."Hmm... she's angelic and very soft when she speaks. You probably upset her to change like that," Callan commented. They all met Yvonne since they sometimes visited Clyde in his own place to drink. And Yvonne will always serve them sweets or entertain them. "She's so nice. Very pure," Damon smirked meaningfully."She's a complete stranger now. The only thing that reminds me of Yvonne is her physical appearance..." not to mention she's a bit fit and her boobs were larger compared to Yvonne. Clyde wanted to include those details but he knew how asshole his friends are. And he doesn't want to include nasty things since they're talking about his wife. He still respects her."Why don't you invite her to come over? The girls are coming here tonight too. Why don't we use this opportunity so we
Clyde's hand flew to her nape and held it gently just to continue the kiss as if he doesn't want Yvette to cut it too quickly and he still wanted to kiss her.This motherfucker! Yvette's mind screamed with different kinds of curses when Clyde responded and kissed her back nonchalantly. His lips moved gently for a few responses until Yvette pushed him, coaxing him to stop the kiss. "Oh..." the boys' reaction is just too dramatic that it echoed all over the place. Yvette licked her lower lip and smiled at him then patted his cheek. Clyde's eyes remained on her, the kiss made him startle and his mind went blank and he couldn't think straight. "Hi girls," she greeted them as if she didn't do a provocative scene in front of everyone. Sofia's face darkened. She couldn't smile at all. Trisha and Rowena pretended to smile sweetly while Almira chuckled a little."Nice to see you again, Yvonne. Wow... You've changed... a lot!" it was Rowena when she looked at her again from head to foot.T
