Sofia quivered hiding behind a wall, her eyes closed.

“Where is Fredrick?” Cassie said walking down the hallway of her office with her assistant.

“He had an emergency again, I sent the nurses to attend to him. He’s presently at home.”

Cassie nodded, her face looked pale as she dragged her feet on the floor. She paused staring at the floor like she forgot something. She turned to her assistant giving her a questioning look. “Call me Sofia and ask her to meet me at the office unfailingly tomorrow morning. I have an appointment by 10. She should meet me by 9.” She said and continued to walk.

Sofia heard what she said, she leaned closer to the wall, Cassie’s footsteps approaching louder.

Her phone vibrated in her pocket, she gasped trembling as she tried hard to turn it off.

Cassie paused, “Was that you?” She asked her assistant. She shook her head in reply. Cassie’s brow furrowed, she was sure she just heard something. Her instincts kicked in, she narrowed her gaze, squinting her eyes

    A week passed after the incident, Camille and Sean were discharged from the hospital four days after the incident, and they returned to their daily work like nothing happened.“I won’t be able to go with you, Camille. I’m sorry, but Ethan wants me to go to a party with him. Don’t worry, I’ll go with you next time. Love you.” Camille read out with a sigh, dropping the phone on the bed. “I guess I’m all alone on this one.” She muttered, sitting in front of her mirror. She wanted to apply her body cream when her phone rang. She walked back to the bed, picking it up.“What’s up, Sean? Missing me already? We just talked like five minutes ago.” She smiled, saying through the phone.“I suddenly began to miss you again. Are you busy?” Sean asked.“Hm mm, not really, what is it?”“Let’s go out for lunch, I’ll send Jeffery to come pick you up.”Camille smiled, “Alright, I’ll be waiting.” She said, cutting the call.Camille breathed out standing in front of her wardrobe. “How about this?” She m

I’m okay.” She said with a smile.Cole insisted, “There’s no way I’ll let you come all the way here, and you won’t take anything.” “Alright, I’ll have something to drink.”“That’s better then.” Cole smiled.He took his phone and made the orders.“Okay, while we wait for the drinks, how are you doing?” He asked.“Well, I’ve been good. At least after you ran away, and I didn’t see you.” Camille said with a short laugh.“Ah, that day. I chased after the person who hit us. It was a pity I couldn’t catch her before she escaped.” “Oh,” Camille muttered in a low tone. “The accident was fatal, did you sustain any injury? I tried reaching out to you to even say thank you. But your line wasn’t reachable.” Cole nodded, “I misplaced my cell pho

    “Why didn’t you tell me?” Sofia quivered her gaze down, she was covered in sweat as she stuttered. “She-she threatened to kill me,” tears fell from her eyes freely. Camille ruffled her hair in frustration going to seat on a chair. “Stand up.” She said her arms crossed. “I said you can stand up.” Camille said again. Sofia slowly stood up her gaze downwards as she stared at the floor.“And you destroyed the designs? After knowing how much effort I put in it. You promised to change and I trusted you.” Camille said in disbelief. The door suddenly opened and Tiffany entered, “Hey, Cam.” She paused looking at Sofia who bent her head in shame. “Is she back? I thought she said she was on leave because she’s sick.” Tiffany threw the popcorn in her mouth munching on it as she spoke.Camille sighed, “That was only an excuse for her to carry out her misdeed.”“Misdeed?” Tiffany looked at her puzzled. “You mean to say she lied?” Camille nodded, “She was the one who destroyed the design.” She

    Camille’s eyes widened with shock as she asked,“A d-divorce? Why?” Her voice trembled and she felt a lump form in her throat. Fredrick’s face twisted into a sneer, his eyes glinting with malice.“I never loved you, Camille. Stop being dramatic.” He spat the words, his voice dripping with venom.“Our marriage was a mere arrangement, a business deal. Your father got his share of the profit and I got the company, plus a good-looking wife to improve my bad reputation. The company is in my hands now. So, I don’t need you anymore. I want a divorce.”Camille’s mind reeled as she struggled to process his words. Tears pricked at the corner of her eyes, and her heart felt like a heavy weight was crushing it.“Is it because of Cassie?” She asked, her voice barely audible.Camille was already aware that he always loved her twin sister Cassie. He had broken up with her before their marriage in the past because she was disliked by his father and he didn’t want him to marry her. Besides, Camille was

    Cassie had a pale face, sobbing, she grabbed Camille’s arm and said, “Sister, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to come in between your marriage with Fredrick, please don’t be angry with us, everything is my fault, if you want to scold or fight, just do it!”Camille looked at her sudden weak and fearless appearance and felt disgusted. She shook her hands off surprised at her sudden change in attitude.It didn’t take much strength, but Cassie’s body suddenly stumbled, and her entire body fell to the ground.“Cassie!”Fredrick screamed from behind and rushed to help her up, yelling in a low angry voice, “Camille! What are you doing? Why did you push her?”“I-I didn’t…”Camille turned pale and subconsciously wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Cassie.“F-Fredrick, please don’t blame my sister, I’m the one who is trying to come in between your marriage, don’t say she pushed me, even If she hit me and scold me, it’s still the right thing to do,” Cassie said while crying.Camille’s pupils shra

    CHAPTER 3 “Camille!” She heard Fredrick’s voice behind her. She froze, so that’s why she was faking it all. Her heart began to thunder in dread. “He won’t misunderstand me right?” she thought.She stood glued on the spot, too afraid to face him. But out of nowhere, she was harshly shoved away from the way. He went to Cassie’s side and glared at Camille furiously. “You-““Leave us alone? She’s already injured. What do you want more?”She stared at him and felt tears in her eyes. He didn’t believe her again. He hugged Cassie and she hid in his arms.“Fredrick, no. That’s not what happened. She’s lying,” Camille tried to explain but stopped at his words.Fredrick looked at her with contempt and irritation, as if she was his most hated enemy and not his wife. “Leave before I do something really bad to you.”Camille wants to be loved and treated as such. Is it too much to ask? She thought he was the right man but she was extremely wrong. He’s just a selfish egocentric man who doesn’t car

    CHAPTER 4Sean sat in his office, his eyes fixed on Nora, his secretary, as she offered him advice. He knew it was a bad idea to ask for her opinion, but she was a lady and he thought she would at least understand a bit.“This shouldn’t be a hard fit for someone like you who has everything” She teased.Sean usually didn’t talk to her much in a bid to maintain a professional relationship. This conversation ensued as a result of his worry. He had yet another trivial moment with his grandma over something that wasn’t so important and because he had grown tired of giving her fake promises, he decided to just get her something nice this time around but the question was what?He asked Nora, his secretary, about this but she took the wrong initiative and instead thought he was referring to gift ideas for his girlfriend; a very non-existent one at that. Sean’s frustration mounted as she suggested he purchase a make-up brand or perfumes for the female in question.He didn’t know what he expec

While she was determined to spend the rest of her life with him, he was planning to get back his ex-girlfriend.Camille raised her cup and poured herself another glass.She had always been a good drinker, but she was a little drunk at the moment. The cell phone in her bag suddenly vibrated.She reached out her phone with hazy eyes and answered the call.“Who is this?”“Sis, you lost again!”It was Cassie, her twin sister.Camille's lips tugged in mockery.“Did you call me just to tell me that?”Cassie laughed in satisfaction.“Sister, did you know that I’m getting engaged?”Camille’s expression sank.She looked at the people on the dance f
