I can't believe I just slept with a stranger. And not just any stranger, Liam fucking Rockwell. God, this was so embarrassing. I glanced over at the him, and took time to admire his features. I wanted to pull the strands off his eyes when they fluttered open, a spark of recognition and disbelief in his icy blue eyes. My hands froze midair, my breath caught in my throat. Did he know me? Oh wait, yes he did. “Get off.” He spat coldly. Well, that's one way to handle it. Avery and Evelyn are twins that seem inseparable, even with their personality contrasts. That is until a one night stand with Evelyn's boss throws their entire life upside down. Both sisters must now choose between loyalty and love, their journey unfolding multiple secrets and putting their relationship to the test. Will their decisions make or break them?

Something about Ryan seemed oddly familiar....... and it was not the same hands he had in resemblance with Avery... it was way more than that... he looked very familiar but I couldn't quite place my hand on it"Seems like aunty and Ryan ar
Evelyn's POV "Good Morning sir" I greeted Mr Liam."You could have been earlier" he replied. More than five years with this man and he's still as cold the first day I met him........... it did reduce over the years but he was still that cold CEO I ran into on the very first day of my interview. For how long exactly could I take this for? I had been in the same position for more than five years, no promotion, no vacation not even a demotion..... i was stagnant. Everyone I met in the office while i started working had either died, retired or been promoted but here I was. "Into my office evelyn" Liam continued..... More than five years and the thought of going into Liam's office still gave me shivers down my spin. Did I have reports to give..?? Not any I can think of actually...... or was he involved in another sex scandal and I needed to sort it out? Hopefully not. "You called for me sir" I answered "Erhmmm...... yes....yes I did... I'm not one to do things l

Was I ready to loose all that and go back to New York city where all my troubles began?But if i don't go back ..... I wouldn't have any source of income even here and then it'd be like starting over.Life had been fair in the last 5 years why did this have to be so difficult ..... the birth of Ryan, moving into my new apartment , buying my own car and many other things I
Avery's POV Juliet really didn't take things easy when she found out I was lying and pregnant. I apologized to her for lying trying to make her see reason why the occurrence wasn't planned for and instead of killing the child , running away for now was all I could think of ." I helped my sister , got drunk and had her sex with her boss. Who plans those kinds of things?" I questioned Juliet."My life is a mess right now , I'm sorry for not being honest and dragging you into all these but it was the safest decision I could think of" I continued. " What did lying to me solve Avery? " Juliet pressed futher rather softer this time." I know lying to you was wrong..... I just need a bit more time I'd sort things out and get out of my hair.... my only plea is that you keep this a secret for now .... at least until I have my child.... I'd go back Juliet , I'd go back and tell Evelyn everything I just need some time to think" I said my eyes almost filled with tears....." Only because it
Avery's POV I thought leaving the country was the hardest thing to do , I now know it wasn't. The harder thing I had to do was start a new life, no job, no friends ....and I was expecting a baby , the baby of The Billionaire Ceo "Liam Fucking Rockwell" Just hearing the name made my stomach hurt not hurt like I had bad food or food poisoning from things I ate here but hurt like my intestines were being tied and twisted in a loop."Avery babyyyy..... you're not going to sleep all day on the first day of your vacation are you now" I heard Juliet call afar off from the bathroom.Juliet was my high school friend , we weren't all that close but at least close enough to live with her . I couldn't bring myself to tell her I was pregnant or that I had fled from cause who'd really want to take in a pregnant run away . So I told her I was on a Vacation and didn't want to speak to anyone. "I'd be down shortly " I responded. It was time to start living a new life.******** _2 weeks later
Liam's POVEvelyn had become more comfortable with crowds...but she still wasn't comfortable with me. She stuttered more when talking to me now. After the incident I noticed her being withdrawn. She no longer asked how I felt about certain things anymore. She was always fidgeting when talking to me and would almost not say a word when talking to me. At that party, she was a whole different personality. It was like she was a different person, and I liked it more. I know I love her serious and all up to date, but that night at the event was a part of a personality I never saw. It was 7 in the morning, and my phone kept buzzing nonstop. I had no friends, so I instantly knew who it was, and just as I thought, it was my mum. I planned to call her back because I was in the shower."Good morning, sir, your clothes for today have been ironed, and breakfast awaits you at the table," I faintly heard Sam, my butler, say as I came out of the bathroom."I'll be there shortly," I replied as he ste
Evelyn's POV"Daphnee, I'm home," I yelled across the room as I pulled off my shoes. I got no response, and that was when I remembered she was spending the night at her boyfriend's, bringing me back to my lonely reality. Well, it was I and Fluffy, but still it was lonely. I warmed up some food in the microwave, had a warm bath, and after I was in bed, with my sheets over my head. Sleep didn't come as easily as I expected it to so I was forced to think about my day and how tomorrow was going to be with my 'charming boss,' Liam. I realised I haven't heard from Avery since our last date at the cafe, and it's been over a week.Avery hadn't ever been so distant, She would always call to tell me about one crazy experience or the other she had recently. "Hey its Avery Leave a message," I heard from the other side of the call as I picked up my phone to call her.She was probably asleep I concluded as I ended the call.********* I was still asleep when I heard my phone buzz loudly; I
Avery...How did I feel?I didn't know.I was happy, scared, and sad all at once.“Please….tell me what I have to do. I…I can't keep him.” I pleaded with the doctor in his office. My knees were on the ground, and the nurse standing at the door stared at me with pity. Not that I cared, I'd had much worse stares given to me when I ran into the hospital, frantically searching for a doctor.The nurses thought I was having a seizure, and wheeled me in without asking any questions since I came alone. They ran a few tests, discovered I was pregnant, and moved me to the maternity ward.But here I was, pleading with the female doctor in charge of my ward, to help me remove the baby. I thought about it so damn much. What was I going to do? How would I tell mom? Evelyn? They would want to meet the father someday, and even I wasn't ready for the questions and judgment they were going to pass.I wasn't even sure how Liam would take it.“Why do you want to get rid of the baby? It has done nothing
Liam...Evelyn walked feebly into my office, clutching her notepad as if it was her life. Her behavior at work this past month was top notch, but one thing still bothered me.Why didn't she talk about that night?I wasn't drunk, but she was. And even at that, I knew she remembered almost every single thing that happened. But since then, she seemed even more oblivious.I couldn't fucking take it anymore.But what could I do?Maybe she was just really good at listening to instructions.Regardless, she was still my secretary, and I still had a lot of work to do today. Number one, includes giving her a huge task to work on.“Close the door.” I ordered. She flinched slightly, but moved and shut the door with a loud click. I still found it very hard to believe this was the same Evelyn that seduced me that night.“Take a seat.” I said, getting up to dim the lights further. I could see her tense in the seat, as if she was prey and I was the predator.I walked towards my seat, crossed my leg
Evelyn...“Get these files to the HR department immediately. Have them give me a report by tomorrow morning.” Liam, my boss, said huskily, handing me a huge file of papers. I nodded, and scurried out of his office, trying to catch my breath. Being around him was exhausting.I rearranged my clothes, and strutted gracefully towards the HR department. Today was going to be a long day, I could sense it.“Evelyn, have you heard about the new supermodel Mr Liam is bringing in tonight? I hear she's a real beauty.” Gina, my coworker and friend, beamed at me as soon as she saw me walking towards her. I rolled my eyes.“Stop reading those useless headlines on social media Gina. They'll be the end of you.” I said, smirking. She huffed, and stuck her nose back into her computer. I let out a small laugh, and hurried over to the bathroom.I was feeling so nauseous today. Maybe it was the nacho ball I had last night. Or the pepperoni pizza afterwards. Or maybe it was the-ooof! I had bumped straig
