(Lily's Pov)

While Jane drove her brother, Jack to the airport early in the morning, I picked up my phone and dialed Austin's number. I wanted to know why he sent me a text telling me that he wouldn't be accepting the money anymore.

I was surprised to read that when I received his text and so was Jane. We wondered how and why Austin changed his mind.

I rang Austin’s phone and he picked up and kept mute on me. We were quiet for some time before I decided to break the silence.

“Why did you…”

“Because I don’t want to take money from you, Lily. It’s you that I love” Austin said.

I got weakened by his first speech and didn’t know whether or not to hang up on him. He was so used to repeating the same thing over and over again even when I’ve made it clear to him that we won’t work a lot of times.

“I can still give you the money if you want. It’s not too late” I muttered.

“I do not want your money or your husband’s money” he declared and hung up the phone.

    (Jack’s Pov)The reason why I came earlier to the airport was so that I could get to the States on time and also because I wanted to avoid traveling at noon. My last experience while flying made me scared of flying in the afternoon, it was a horrible experience that I never wanted to experience again but that feeling, the feeling I had when our plane almost crashed always finds a way of creeping into me whenever I get to the airport. I would have had my assistant go on the trip but it was a very important one for me, and I couldn’t trust anybody with it except myself.My flight was delayed by one hour and it made us depart a bit late. I expected that my flight would go so well but it was more of a torture. Boarding the plane, I was welcomed by the sight of a stunning flight attendant with a radiant smile. She was tall, beautiful, and had a perfect body structure. Her name was written on her tag and it was my sister’s name, Jane. What a coincidence. I couldn’t help but feel anxiousness

    (Jane’s Pov)“The only solution is that she comes to see you and you have to do as I have told you” I gave a stern instruction to Austin over the phone.He was supposed to collect the money from Lily and hand it over to me as we agreed but he went ahead and bridged our agreement telling Lily to forget about the money without asking me first.“How do I live with the guilt of what you want me to do to Lily? I can’t do it” he replied.“I’m sorry but you don’t have any other choice other than to do it” I repeated.“Does she even know about this?” He asked in a cheeky voice.“A lamb doesn’t need to know that it’s about to be slain. Austin, just do as I have told you and make sure they aren’t any mistakes this time around." I replied.“I’m sorry but I can’t” he cried over the phone.“you do not have a choice” I replied.“yes I do, and I have chosen not to hurt Lily and I won’t”“You should have chosen that a long time ago, but no you betrayed her. You did that before it won’t be hard to do

    (Lily’s Pov)It has been three weeks since I got a text from Austin saying that I should forget about the Five Hundred Thousand that I wanted to give him to stay away from me. Within the past two weeks he neither called nor texted me. I believed that he had made up his mind to let me be and I was happy that he did but little did I know that he would start all over again.While I was in my room sending texts across to Jack asking him about the progress of what he had traveled for, a familiar number popped up on my screen, it was Austin’s. I confirmed.“why would he be calling me now? I thought we were over” so I thought.I ignored his first call but as my phone came ringing the second time, I thought it wise to talk to him and listen to what he has to say to me before it goes out of hand and I can’t stop him anymore.“Hello Austin” I said as I picked up his call.“I thought you’d never take my calls” he said.His voice sounded cold and not as stern as it sounded few weeks ago. He was q

    (Lily’s Pov)Alone in my room, quiet and meditating on what Austin told me and how to take care of him so that Jack wouldn’t notice a thing when he returns home since his days of returning home was fast approaching.I felt bad for what Austin had said about not being important to anyone, I knew him very well and the pain of being alone in the world can be choking. I thought about it for a while before making up my mind to go visit him and proof to him that he still means something to me, just a little.Leaving the mansion by myself would be very noticeable since I don’t usually leave the mansion unless it was with Jane or going to the supermarket which I often do with Jane. Jane was the only one who came to my mind as I was thinking of how to visit Austin and not let Jack notice.No sister would comfortably let a wife of her brother visit another man, however, I rehearsed how to let Jane know that I never wanted to visit Austin but because he promised that he would stop coming to the

    (Jane’s Pov)“Good morning ma’am” Jack’s secretary greeted as I walked past her to his office.“Excuse me ma” she repeatedly called as she ran after me but it was too late as I was already inside of Jack’s office.“Don’t worry it’s fine” Jack’s assistant said to the secretary.“Good day ma’am. You can have a seat” he said ushering me in to seat down.“Good grief. This is my brother’s office, why am I not allowed to walk in here whenever I want?” I murmured.“I’m sorry about that ma but the president said not to allow anyone into his office without his permission” he explained.“But you know who I am?”“Yes, I do” he replied.“I doubt that. I don’t think you know who I am” I saidIt pained me to learn that the staffs in the company do not give me the respect they should accord me all because I do not work in the company. I felt like landing a hot slap on his cheek, Jack’s assistant, but I chose to be calm.All these while I’ve been coming to the company while Jack was away, they never

    (Jane’s Pov) The fireworks were so beautiful. They completed the moment. The beautiful moment I was having with Santos. While we were watching the fireworks Santos would steal a glance from me thinking I didn't notice but unknowing to him that I witnessed every glance. It was the first time I saw someone look at me with care, he looked at me like it was from his heart, it was from his heart and I knew he cared about me. "Hey beautiful," he whispered to my ear as he dressed the strands of hair on my face to the back of my ear so that he could get a clearer view of my face. "Why do I feel like I'm a baby right now?" I asked him, facing down and making an invisible sketch with my leg. He held my palm and placed it on his cheek, surprisingly to me that was a trick to make me lift my head which I did without knowing. "I thought you were going to bury your face forever" He teased. I wanted to face-palm myself but my palms weren't available anymore, he was already making use of them so

    (Lily’s Pov)It was a going to be a nice day, a bright and happy one. Jane was taking me out to see a friend of hers and I couldn’t help but be happy. Since Jack traveled I’ve been in the house, nowhere to go to, always sleeping and waking up to either watch the Television or eat. I was already developing fatigue due to same routine of activity every day, but thanks to Jane who was going to take me out to see her friend.Taking other people to see your friend means that you trust them. Friends are valuable relationships and people don’t often introduce their friends to people they don’t like. It finally felt like I was Jane’s favorite person.“ahaaa!” I exclaimed at the sight of my Cinderella gown, a tear dropped off from my eyes because it reminded me so much of the last day I wore it while my dad was still in the hospital.“It’s a good day Dad, I just want to be happy” I whispered in a hush voice and took the dress off from the hanger where it was dangling freely in the wardrobe.I

    (Lily’s Pov)While I admired myself on the mirror, Jane was busy taking care of her beautiful self, she dressed just like she never did before and I couldn’t help but wonder the kind of friend we were going to see. Was it just a friend or a group of friends? I guess that was why she gave her beautiful clothes out to me so that I could wear them and not look out of their league. Whichever one it was, whether a friend or a group of rich friends, as long as I would be going with Jane, I was ready to meet them.“How do I look?” Jane asked me after she was done dressing up.“You’re as beautiful as a goddess, can we get this ponytail down a bit?” I asked.“Do you think it will be better of that way?”“Yes it should be” I answered and adjusted her hair which she tied into a ponytail.“there you go, look into the mirror” I whispered to her ear.“Thank you Lily” she thanked me when she saw how beautiful the hair looked.“You are welcome” I responded with a smile.“I think we are good to go” Ja

    (Lily’s Pov)“Sorry, for what exactly?” I asked with a voice heavy with emotion.“I’m sorry for everything. Can’t you see how sorry I am?” Austin asked“I don’t care whether you are sorry or not. You’re supposed to stay away from my life, I paid the price for that remember?”“Lily it’s not my fault that things happened the way they did…”“It’s my fault then. How could you? Austin I trusted you so much and yet you broke me the third time. Why do you have to keep hurting me? What did I ever do to you to deserve the things that I get from you?” I asked trying so hard to withhold my tears from dropping.Austin tried to make an inch closer but I took two steps backwards to stop him from coming any closer. I never believed I would set my eyes on him again after what he did to me.When Jack showed me that video of us having sex, a video I knew nothing about, my heart sank into my stomach. Austin took a sex video of us without my knowledge. He drugged me and had sex with me.“How am I suppose

    (Jack’s Pov)In a bid to find comfort, I ran into a bar filled with lots of people and echoes that came from the loud music being played in the bar. It was a locally made expensive bar and had a very beautiful sight but I was in pains not to pay attention to its details.I found my way into the thick crowd that was rocking each other and flirting around. The crowd was congested but I still managed to find my way to the barman’s spot where I would stay and drink until I’m able to forget all that I’d been through.“One beer please,” I said to the bar attendant who was serving everybody.“Are you married?” the young man asked.“Excuse me,” I said looking confused. I didn’t know what being married had to do with ordering a beer in the bar.“You’re in the couple’s corner, if you’re alone then you should go to the other side, divorced people aren’t allowed her either,” the barboy said pointing to the corner which had only a young lady who was already drinking herself to stupor.For a moment

    (Lily’s Pov)When my son woke up, I had to beg the doctor to let us go because his twin brother was at home all alone. The doctor refused and asked that I let them take care of him while I go back to his brother at home but fear wouldn’t let me do that.“I’m sorry ma, we can’t let you take him home when he hasn’t healed properly,” the doctor said.“But I can take care of him at home, all you have to do is give me his drugs and I will administer them to him following your directions” I pleaded.“It doesn’t work that way, ma’am. Let us take care of his wounds” the doctor insisted.“You’re not in any position to tell me what to do with my child” I fumed.“You can take him home if you want, we are only trying our best to make sure that your son is in good condition” the doctor replied.After giving a second thought to the doctor’s advice, I had no other choice left other than to call on Samantha and let her know what happened to one of the twins.“Hello Samantha” I cried.“Why are you cry

I couldn’t go to the bakery with them because of the heat produced in the bakery shop instead, I decided to take two days off from work and look after my kids while we wait for Samantha to return home.The kids were running around and playing with their dolls while I was making food in the kitchen, suddenly everywhere went cold and I wasn’t hearing their tiny little laughter anymore, after a second, one started crying but I didn’t hear a thing from the other.I got scared and ran out to confirm what was wrong, I got to the sitting room to see my little one lying helplessly on the floor in the pool of his own blood. I wrapped him up in my arms immediately and searched all over his body for where the blood was coming from. I turned him over and it was from his head that the blood was streaming from.Confused and didn’t know what to do I reached for my phon

    (Jack’s Pov)I got home after a long day at the company and decided that I need to rest because I had lunch almost at 4 pm, I didn’t see the need to eat again at night so I walked straight to my room without going to the dining to check what was prepared.“I thought I was going to wait forever” Karen chuckled immediately after I turned the light on.“You scared me! How did you get here?” I asked, disgusted by her presence.“Are you not happy to see me? What was I even thinking? I have forgotten that you have a new wife but I don’t see her anywhere around this place” Karen chuckled looking around everywhere and making a comic face.“I’m warning you, stop it…”“Or what Jack? I loved you and what did you do? You divorced me for some whore who got pregnant for another man, tell me, have you suddenly become impotent that another man had to get your wife pregnant, so pathetic” Karen mocked.“How did you get into my room and who opened the gate for you?” I asked the desperate Karen seating o

    (Jack’s Pov)After meeting with the staff who took away my money, I headed to the company to deal with the complaints I’ve been receiving from our clients over contracts that were yet to be approved. The contracts were delicate and my assistant couldn’t approve them, as I needed to look into them, otherwise, I would have asked him to.My assistant called complaining that we might lose some of our major customers if we do not do anything with the contracts and that was why I decided to go to the company after deciding to stay off the company and have my assistant take care of things.The company was busy and filled with people, soon everybody started bowing at the sight of me as they usually do. I was becoming tired of the entitlement which they gave me, I wanted my staff to feel free with me and not freak out whenever they see me but that seemed like a wish that wouldn’t come true, even when I try talking to some of them they would bend their head until I would be done talking.“Good

Some strange person called Jack telling him that they’ve found her, what if it’s Lily that he found. I think Jack is in love with her”“What makes you think so?” Karen asked.“Because I heard him say to Jack ‘Boss we have found her” I replied.“Not that part”“Which part do you mean?” I asked“The part you said he’s in love with her”“Yes, Karen I think he’s in love with her and if she’s the one that they’ve found then it’s the end of the road for the both of us” I cried perambulating around the whole place.“What do you suggest we do now?” Jane asked.“I do not know, I’m as confused as you are yourself and Jack isn’t giving me any chance to get close to the company despite how weak I thought he was.“That’s not good at all”“Yes, it isn’t and now I’m scared.

    (Jack’s Pov)I rushed in the direction of the address where Nate sent to my phone. It was the new location where he keeps hostages whenever captures anyone that I have him go after.A week ago, my assistant brought to my notice the case of a missing fund where a huge amount of money went missing. It was traced to the desk of our three-year-old staff who was a data analyst. She was employed because her curriculum vitae says she is an experienced data analyst and when my assistant gave her a test, she did very well and that was the most relevant reason why she was employed, so basically, she’s very good at her job.Ever since she resumed work, my assistant has been reporting a missing fund to me but I had them all ignored because the money missing wasn’t much, but this time around, I had it investigated because the money which was lost this time was quite huge and it was nothing I could overlook just like that. I wanted to know the person who’d be so bold to steal from me.My assistant

    (Jack’s Pov)As much as I pretended that everything was okay with me, I still had something bothering me, something that haunts me all through the night, it was the thought of Lily.I lied to myself severally that I did the right thing by sending her out for cheating on me but however, something didn’t seem right to me. The doctor’s confirmation of her having twins means that it could be because Jane and I are twins but then I’m not the only one who is a twin, the man she cheated on me with could be too.Sometimes I try to get my mind off from thinking about her but the thought never goes away, it still finds its way into my heart and each time it does, it torments me.When I couldn’t deal with it any longer, I confided in Jane and told her everything that I was going through because she was the only person I could trust at the moment."Do you think I did the right thing?" I asked Jane uncertain."What are you talking about? Don't tell me you're still thinking about her?" I bowed my h
