To help my "destitute" husband pay off his debts, I scavenged for scraps for five years. My son and I survived on expired canned food. That changed on my son's birthday. I saw him in a bespoke suit, spending millions to celebrate the birthday of the woman he truly loved. That was the moment I realized he was actually the most powerful billionaire on Wall Street. To please the love of his life, he let our child be injected with unknown drugs, leaving him on the brink of death. He even forced me to drain my own blood to save her son. Later, I became someone he could no longer reach. I linked arms with a man far more powerful than him and walked away. That once arrogant man ended up kneeling in the Arctic snow, clutching a photo I had burned, weeping like a stray dog.

“Are you still a virgin?” Iyan ang unang tanong na lumabas sa bibig niya nang unang beses kaming magtagpo. Caleb Valderama.

Simple lang ang gusto ko sa buhay, ang makapag-aral ng kolehiyo sa Japan para makamit ko ang pagiging Manga artist. Ngunit para sa pangarap kong iyon, kinailangan kong pumayag sa hininging pabor ng kakambal ko: I pretended as my twin sister to be Caleb’s fiancé for two months.

Various shades of grey blurred the branches of our twisted family tree. I wasn’t her brother. They weren’t my parents. Not that it mattered… She was off limits. Portia was my friend. Then my foster sister. And she’d always be the love of my life. Family Ties is created by Stephie Walls, an eGlobal Creative Publishing Signed Author.
