She stared into his hazel eyes; they were spell-binding. She was lost in them and she fought hard to gulp. She stared at him one last time before placing her hand in his. He gave a little smile, few seconds ago he had been scared of her rejecting to touch him. Ava smiled deep down although she acted tough on the outside. Dean turned around to wink at him.. He was doing a perfect job. "So the girl who was flirting with me right in front of you, is your sister?", He threw the question at her while staring at her fingers. Ava swallowed hard and wished this cup would be taken away from her. She had hoped he wouldn't bring it up but then he did. After a few seconds of battling with her tongue, she finally found her voice and spoke in a very low tone. "Yes, she's my twin sister actually. Her name is Avery." His grip on her tightened a little, he stared at her straight in the eye and with the most sexy, enchanting tone, he uttered "What's your name?" 'Huh? What

Caryn's House, 8pm. They had just finished their dinner but none of them was ready to retire to bed. It had been a long day looking for companies who they could trick into signing a business deal with to rejuvenate their company that was sinking. They had gone bankrupt few weeks ago and they needed to strike a deal with any successful company in a period of forty-eight hours. The company was in crumbling and they lost close to thirty workers in a day. They needed to act fast otherwise the well known Big J. Enterprises would be all over the news. "I still can't believe how all these happened in a period of weeks dad. I still don't get it, how did we lose such amount of money in a day without a single trace?", Caryn had her hands crossed on her chest and was looking tired already. Fatigue was telling on each and everyone of them but they had just a two days deadline to revive their deaf company. Reason is, their father owe some money to his business partner and before h

Ava's house, 10pm. Carolina stood there waiting. Waiting for her child to come back home, she paced around hoping to hear a car horn and see Ava alight. She was not to be blamed, her innocent twenty-three year old daughter stayed out late for the first time with the opposite sex, it was enough to cause a panic attack. "Lina, still waiting for her?", It was her father. "Yes Dad. I'm scared, she hasn't call, not a single texts, she's not answering my calls also. Do we report to the police?" Josh smiled. That was expected of every parent. Their child's safety was one of their priorities and would go beserk if they feel their child is in danger. "Relax Lina. Ava is grownup now and you have to accept the fact that she won't be living with you forever. I believe she's mature enough to take care of herself", he drew her into his embrace and they stood there watching the night sky. Looks like it would rain any moment from now. "That's my point father, I wish she was still my little girl

"You should apologize to my lady...." Ava gave her the "Now, who's the boss" kind of look and Ashely rolled her eyes at her. "I'm sorry", she blurted out while staring at Ava.Dean and Nathan smiled. This girl never really learnt a lesson or did she? She was ill-mannered and a little torture wouldn't hurt. "Ashley.... You are a hard nut to crack but... I always seem to know how to break you." Ashley was a bit shaken. Would they take her back to the torture room? She was still recuperating from the last experience and now this? Should she apologize to the low class girl or just act obstinately and go through hell again? "Ashley? Are you apologizing to Miss Ava or not?", Dean asked and stared at Nathan who had just left the living room. Ava stood still fixing her gaze on the bad-mannered maid who seemed to have lost her tongue. A few moments later, Nathan came in with his men. They were not strange to Ashley or Dean but probably were to Ava who was starting

“Hi Avery, oh my goodness you won't believe it... You need to see his mansion, it screams wealth!! And my room is so enormous and the mini pool and... Hold on, did I tell you his living room is bigger than our four rooms at home combined? I wish you could see things for yourself... Goodnight, Avery. I love you...”, her phone dinged and a text message from Ava popped up. Avery was furious as she went through the text over and over again. It should have been her! Ava didn't deserve Nathan, she did. She was about to vent her anger; Most times she smashed her phone or destroyed personal belongings. Last Christmas, she had destroyed grandma's favourite flower vase. Earlier on when her wealthy boyfriend left her, she broke the wall clock. The bed lamp in Ava's room was broken also. Avery would always destroy anything she laid her hands on just to feel better. She was about to do that again when an idea came up. Why not try to win Nathan over? She did her homework and found out
