Rose pulled her coat tighter around her body as she walked aimlessly along the sidewalk. One more bus ride and she would arrive back in her old city, where the Cavanaugh family lived. But she changed her mind and got off in the neighboring town instead.

Rose stared at the dark screen of her phone. If she turned it on, she could easily call Nicole or Matteo.

“No… I’m done with that family. I don’t want to be involved with the Cavanaughs anymore, even if they’ve been good to me,” she murmured sof

  • The Substitute Twin Bride   198. Captured

    The smell of cheap cigarette smoke stung Rose’s nose the moment she stepped into the dingy apartment lobby. No one was there, just a row of dented mailboxes and crude graffiti peeling off the walls.Her heart pounded, matching the echo of her footsteps on the concrete stairs. The elevator was broken, of course. So Rose had to climb to the fourth floor on shaky legs, holding her breath.Every shadow in the stairwell made her alert.“This is for Romilda,” Rose whispered, gripping her bag strap tightly. “She’s your sister, your own blood. You can’t just let her die.”Rose reached the apartment door and turned the handle. It opened with a loud creak. The inside was dark, the curtains tightly shut.

  • The Substitute Twin Bride   197. Walking Into the Trap

    The atmosphere in the Cavanaugh living room was lively. Nicole was busy calling catering vendors, while Letty was choosing fabric samples with Anais. Meanwhile, Rose was occupied looking through wedding cakes.Actually, Rose wanted a simple wedding, but Anais insisted that even a simple one still needed the essentials, like a wedding cake and beautiful decorations.“I think champagne would look nice for the tablecloths, don’t you? I know Matteo wants something simple, but the Cavanaugh version of simple still means Baccarat crystal and imported flowers,” Nicole boasted.Rose let out a soft laugh. “I’ll leave it to you, of course.”“This is your wedding, Rose. You need to make sure everything is perfect.” Anais looked at her. “I want you and Matteo to be happy, no matter how small or big this is.”Rose nodded shyly. “Alright, Anais. I’m sorry for troubling you, and Nicole and Le

  • The Substitute Twin Bride   196. The Game Has Begun

    Rose’s logic screamed that this was a trap. Not just Aaron, but even Matteo and Alec had warned her that Romilda was dangerous. But another part of her began to waver.Jerry had always been known as a dangerous man. It wasn’t impossible that he was hunting Romilda down to sell her to the mafia. Or even traffic her overseas.Rose knew just how cruel their father was. He was capable of anything to hurt his daughters. It would be better for Romilda to be caught by the police than to fall into Jerry’s hands.Rose glanced at her watch. It was almost three in the afternoon. The restaurant was less than five minutes away. At the very least, she could walk there.I need to make sure what’s really going on with Romilda, Rose thought, torn between confusion and anxiety.Her sense of responsibility as a sister, her fatal weakness, took over. She quickly grabbed her handbag and approached Letty and Nicole.“I&rsquo

  • The Substitute Twin Bride   195. Romilda Is Coming

    The news appeared on the phone screen: “Matteo Cavanaugh’s True Love Is Roseanne Baxter.”A collage photo of Rose and Matteo showed them smiling brightly, their story framed like a sweet fairytale romance.Romilda’s eyes locked onto the screen, her face slowly turning red.Her life was perfectly fine. She lacked nothing. Rocco gave her everything, along with high-level security. But all that luxury felt like trash to Romilda.“Bitch!”Romilda hurled her phone onto the floor until the screen cracked. She didn’t care about the damn thing anyway. Rocco would just buy her a new one.Her breathing turned heavy, her chest rising and falling as anger burned deep inside her. Seeing Matteo choose Rose filled her with rage.Because Rose always took everything Romilda wanted… everything she had ever hoped for.“You think you’ve won, Rose? You think everything’s go

  • The Substitute Twin Bride   194. The Cavanaugh Scandal

    Just as Matteo was about to leave for the office after breakfast, Letty suddenly shot up from her chair. Her face turned pale as she stared at her phone screen.“This is insane! You guys need to see this,” Letty said, her voice shaking.She immediately handed her phone to Nicole. The youngest, who had only been frowning at first, suddenly went just as pale as Letty.On the screen was a photo of Rose running from Aaron’s wedding, along with an old photo of Romilda. Matteo’s photo was placed right between them. The headline was bold: “The Cavanaugh Scandal: Greedy Billionaire Wants Both Sisters?”The article claimed that Romilda had a twin sister all along. Now that Romild

  • The Substitute Twin Bride   193. Where She Finally Belonged

    The towering wrought-iron gate swung open as Andy, the security guard, unlocked it. The moment Rose stepped out of the car, Andy stared in disbelief. He walked over to her with Matteo.“Sir… ma’am…” Andy looked awkward. “Welcome, M-Mrs. Rose.”Rose smiled. “Thank you. It’s good to see you’re doing well, Andy.”“Yes, ma’am.”Matteo guided Rose toward the mansion. Emotions stirred inside her. That house had once felt like a prison, something terrifying.It was where she had been forced to play the role of a fake wife and cover for Romilda’s lies. In that same mansion, she had been ignored, insulted, mocked, and suspected.But this time, she came as herself. Roseanne Baxter. Not Romilda’s shadow anymore.At the front door, the maids were already waiting, as if they had been prepared to welcome her. Rose even glanced at Matteo, making sure he hadn’t

  • The Substitute Twin Bride   33. More Than Hate

    "Ugh," Rose groaned softly.A throbbing pain shot through her nose where the towel had brushed against it. Her eyes watered instantly, and she sneezed several times.Rose knew the bruises would turn purple over the next few days and that the pain would slowly fade only then. Looking in the mirror,

    Rose’s head still felt heavy and throbbed around her face. As she regained consciousness, she faintly saw several figures standing before her. Narrowing her eyes, she tried to make out who they were.They turned out to be Matteo, Nicole, and Letty, waiting by the bed.“Matteo?” Rose croaked.He rus

    Rose arrived at the hotel, her heart pounding. A staff member quickly approached her and greeted her warmly. She was escorted to the reception desk, but hesitated to speak."Good evening, ma'am. How may I help you?” the receptionist asked."I'd like to check if there's a reservation under the name

    Rose felt both guilty and relieved when she saw Matteo walk into the room and approach her. Without saying much, he sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at her. He gave her a faint smile."Thank God you're getting better, Romilda." Matteo gently patted the back of her hand. "I worried all nig
