Eve steered the wheel to the right, coming to a halt in the parking lot. Ensuring that her face mask and the shades were adjusted once again, and wearing a face cap which concealed her forehead, she stepped out of the car. She had wired the money to the account her parents provided, but she couldn't bring herself to have her twin leave the country without seeing her. Eve pulled out her phone and dialed her parents again, but none of their contacts was going through. When she tried Hannah's and got the same result, dread filled her chest, and she took the backdoor into the hospital. "Good day, ma'am." The security greeted her as she walked past. Eve nodded in acknowledgement and pushed the elevator button, waiting for her turn. But unknown to her, she wasn't the only one who had snuck into that hospital. She was just about boarding the elevator when her phone rang. She picked on the first ring, seeing it was Wendy, her manager. "Hello..." "Ava, where are you? As soon as you

Bella George's scandal took Hollywood by storm, creating a ruckus at the set. Reporters and disappointed fans were camped outside, demanding explanations from the model whom they had defended against Ava Stark only a few months ago. "Does this mean you've been dating a married man?" "How can you show your face to the world after what you've done?" "You're just a hypocrite, I can't believe I trusted you!" It was so noisy at the set, but Eve sat calmly by the side, sipping at her drink as happiness rushed into her blood. Great, if the two actresses had had a scandal, then they were on equal footing and she wouldn't be constantly compared to Bella. But surprisingly, Wendy stormed into the set with a triumphant expression that exceeded Eve's own. "The script is being revised, most of Bella's scenes are being cut off, and replaced with yours. Also, the script is gearing towards your direction, and your photoshoot with your husband is today." Eve supposed that she should be ecs

The sexual tension between her and Alessandro scared Eve more than her fear of her identity being exposed.Avoiding him only seemed to be making the air around them more and more intense whenever they met, as if she had come across water after years of thirst.It nudged at her and drove her crazy, to the point where she was tempted to ask her husband for another night or jump him while he slept.All they had to do was look at each other or hold hands in public and she would feel like her skin had been heated on fire. At the end, Eve had decided to start sleeping in her original bedroom, again, minimising when she had to stay in close proximity with her husband.But she couldn't avoid him that particular night, since they were going to be attending a public function together. Their first official outing as a married couple was the anniversary ceremony of a brand which they had both been invited to.Eve stood in the middle of her room, dressed in a white evening dress which pooled at

Alessandro kissed like a god of sex.His capable fingers craftily pulled her into his rock hard body, and his tongue slipped into her warm, eager mouth, cologne mingled with his masculine sweat.He tasted of addiction and sin, and in his arms, Eve felt like she was eating a forbidden apple.He was tempting and gorgeous, plundering her lips like they had been made for him, cradling her face and cupping her waist.There was no separation between her body and his anymore. The space was almost nonexistent. She met his hot demanded kiss with equal vigor, matching his hunger and desire.The kiss turned wet, hot sloppy sounds of tongues and mouths clashing in a union that was burning and scorching hot.Eve burned and died for him, her body melting into his, a sigh of relief escaping her lips.It felt as if after so many weeks of needing and pretending not to want him, she had finally gotten a taste of sin.And damn was it even more delicious than she remembered. Alessandro Stark's fingers

Journalists made a crowd at the sets, disrupting their activities, and also camped in front of the mansion.Throughout the week, Eve felt absolutely humiliated. She wished for the ground to open up and swallow her whole she wouldn't have to put up with this.It was most embarrassing since she and Alessandro had projected themselves as a happy couple.And to make matters worse for her, there were constantly issues at the Johnson Corporation due to Harry's inability to do anything.He was more incompetent than Eve had feared, and they ended up losing business deals and cli
