Semua Bab Seducing My Dad's Best Friend: Bab 1 - Bab 10

The neon lights flickered as we stepped into the club. The bass from the music pounded through the floor and vibrated in my chest. I should have been excited. It was the kind of night people said would help you forget—forget the hurt, the betrayal, the mess of a life that seemed to be falling apart. But as I followed Amber toward the bar, all I felt was the heaviness in my heart. Fred’s words still echoed in my mind. I couldn’t believe he had cheated on me. And with her—Gina, of all people.Amber leaned in close as we reached the counter, her arm looping through mine. She looked stunning that night. Her confidence radiated in every move she made, as usual.“Come on, Rochelle, stop looking like someone just ran over your puppy. We’re here to forget, remember?” she shouted over the music, giving me a playful nudge.I tried to smile, but it was weak. Amber had been trying to lift my spirits all night. She was right, of course. I should have forgotten about Fred. I shouldn’t have cared ab

ROCHELLE That threw me off! I just stood there, looking at Aries and his duplicate. My heart pounded so hard I could feel it in my throat. My legs trembled, and my hands shook uncontrollably. I tightened my grip on my purse, hoping it would steady me, but it didn't. This was not happening. My eyes must be playing tricks on me. I blinked once, then twice. Yet, nothing changed. There they stood, two Aries. One of him was already overwhelming enough, with his sharp jawline, piercing blue eyes, and that ever-present air of cold authority. But two?No, I wasn't dreaming. This was real. Too real."Rochelle, are you okay?" Aries's deep, familiar voice sliced through my confusion. His tone was calm but laced with concern, and his cold demeanor softened just slightly, which was rare for him. He noticed my expression, the wide eyes, and the trembling lips. "Why are you looking at us like you've just seen a ghost?"I opened my mouth to speak, but no words came out. Instead, a scream

ADRIEN There's something about her!"Did you notice the way she was looking at us?" Aries asked me, his tone laced with curiosity.I barely glanced up from my phone, busy replying to a message from one of our top clients. “Who are you talking about?” I responded absentmindedly, my fingers flying over the screen.“Who else but Rochelle,” he said, sounding exasperated, like I was supposed to read his mind simply because we’re twins.I sighed, finally lifting my eyes to meet his. “I didn’t notice anything strange about how she looked at us. I was busy talking with the client we’re supposed to supply products to.” I went back to my phone, dismissing whatever Aries was going on about. “What did you notice anyway?”Aries leaned back in his chair, folding his arms. “The way she looked at us wasn’t normal. It was... different. It felt like she was trying to get our attention.”I raised an eyebrow. “Maybe she wants something.”“Like what?” he asked, leaning forward with a curious smirk.

ROCHELLE Let me burn!Slowly, Aries and Adrien started touching me.At first, it was innocent, like it had always been in my mind—playful gestures, friendly teasing. But tonight, something felt different, a crackling tension in the air that made my skin tingle. Maybe it was the dim lighting of Adrien's expression, or the champagne buzz making everything seem a little too warm. Whatever it was, my heart beat faster, my pulse drumming in my ears as their hands lingered longer than usual.Aries was the first. His fingers brushed against my shoulder, slow and deliberate, sending a shiver down my spine. I tried to ignore it, telling myself it was accidental. But then Adrien joined, his touch feather-light against my lower back. I swallowed hard, my throat suddenly dry."Are you okay, Rochelle?" Adrien's voice was soft, a whisper against my ear. His breath was warm, and I could feel the heat of his body just inches away."I'm fine," I murmured, though my voice came out sh

FRED Just for a few rounds of…I messed up by letting Rochelle go because of Gina. It’s a thought that haunted me day and night, gnawing at my insides like a relentless parasite. The night I lost Rochelle was burned into my memory, that moment when the door to our apartment slammed shut behind her, an echo of a love fractured by betrayal. I could still see the betrayal written all over her beautiful face, her eyes filled with hurt and anger. I had thrown everything away for a foolish mistake, and now the void of her absence pressed down on me like an enormous weight.Rochelle used to be everything to me. She wasn’t just my girlfriend; she was my help in school, my partner in laughter, the one who made ordinary days feel special. We met in college when we were both trying to navigate through the maze of exams and assignments. She would patiently study with me late into the night, helping me with subjects that seemed impossible. If it weren’t for her, I would have struggled to pa
