Maurice was transported to a room in the hospital after he fainted in the hospital's hallway, and the doctors attended to him. They couldn't find the reason for his rash, but they ran a test on his brain, which he was examined to be suffering from shock.

“What are you saying, doctor?” Mr. Elliot, Maurice's father, asked the doctor because whatever he was hearing sounded strange to him. “It's just as you heard chairman, your son might be suffering from a great shock which leads to his allergy coming back.” The doctor said, referring to Maurice's allergy to woman's touch.

“But that's not possible, I mean he doesn't have the rash, no matter who he touches now and..” she was saying, but the doctor interrupted her.

“I understood your stance ma'am, but that doesn't change the fact that his allergy has returned, and it might be best if you consulted a psychiatrist.” The doctor said, and Mrs. Elliot burst into tears.

She didn't know her son was that vulnerable, and his wife's death would be a

    "Raise your head high!!" the instructor yelled, frustratedly looking at Hadley, who was doing the opposite of what she had taught her. The country's pumpkin was giving her a headache. "Ok," Hadley smiled apologetically but heaven knows that was the opposite of what was going on in her head. She so much wanted to rip someone's head right now. Why does she need to walk like an ostrich just for a dinner party? The way of the rich is different. "We are going to do it again and this time, you have to get it right," the woman said and Hadley nodded knowing she was still going to the opposite. "Stop!!!" The woman yelled with all her veins bulging out which looked funny to Hadley and she avoided her eyes not wanting to be caught smiling. "You need to catch up on the training. How do you intend to fool Elliot? All you do is walk like a toad," the woman exaggerated and that got her thinking. Does a toad walk?? "A toad doesn't walk Miss Freya," Hadley replied the woman in her early 50s a

    Hadley turned around to look at the person that recognized her and she was shocked to see that it was her best friend, Maria. They grew up in the countryside and Hadley knew she was going to believe it was her because she didn't know she had a twin just like how she didn't know a thing. Hadley knew even if she wanted to lie her friend was going to know it was her so there was no point. "Oh my God it's you, Hadley," Hadley's friend Maria exclaimed, jumping on the stiff Hadley and she embraced her in a tight hug. "What are you doing here?"Maria asked excitedly, still hugging her friend. The people around quietened down and they all watched as a woman in waitress clothes enveloped Gilbert's only daughter in her embrace. "Is that not Gilbert's daughter, why is the girl calling her Hadley," a voice came among the people and another voice joined. "From the hug, the girl looked kinda close to the girl and she was sure it was the person she knew,". People started whispering and Hadley p

    I looked at the woman that claimed to be my fiance's cousin or should I say my sister's fiance and wondered if she had lost some screw in her head. Because whatever she was saying doesn't sound plausible. "Did you go around lying to people because you want to be relevant?" Hadley asked her and she saw her shocked. Yeah, she should be because she hasn't even started. She knew people like that don't go around trying to benefit anyone but themselves so, she knew she had an ulterior motive. "I don't know why you will go around trying to tarnish your brother's image but don't do that, it's really bad," Hadley says, the girl looked at her confused but when she saw her hand, she smiled. "Why did you think you were wearing a glove, to begin with?" she asked and Hadley looked at her with questions. "That's because my cousin can not stand your touch and being with you might even make him sick". After what the girl says Hadley got lost in thoughts, if her twin sister is going to marry that

    "So, you mean I have to stay here till your precious daughter comes back," Hadley asked looking at the face that was supposed to be familiar but seemed strange She was supposed to leave for her home already but they are still keeping her. She looked between her father and her grandmother who was asking her with a stern face to stay some more days and acting like Ella so Elliot wouldn't notice that she went missing. "Yes until then we hope you find this place conducive and you stay out of trouble," her father says but she had enough. "No," Hadley says, standing up abruptly and walking out on them but her grandmother's voice called her back. "I heard your mother is sick and you are working your bones off to pay for her medical bill so how is this?" the grandmother says walking up to her. "I will pay for your mother's medical bills and you will pretend to be your twin sister for some days". Hadley looked at her supposed grandmother and she sneered. How could these people be so vile?

    Hadley looked at the person that just entered the dressing room and her mood dampened. This person doesn't look identical to her, or was she wearing a mask? Hadley thought, looking at the petite woman in front of her. "Congratulations on your wedding Ella," the girl cladded in a white flowing gown, and a mocking smug was plastered on her lips. Is she the bride or what? Hadley thought but she was not in for her talk. She was sure this woman in front of her was no good, so she didn't even bother to waste a breath. "I am sorry that all the tips I gave you on how to win Maurice's heart doesn't work," the woman says with a fake worry and Hadley wondered what she was saying. She gave Ella tips on how to win Maurice's heart. This woman? Hadley shakes her head because it was obvious whatever this woman said to her sister was not going to help instead it was going to be the opposite. Her sister has been duped. "Yes you are right your tips aren't helpful," Hadley says standing up and yo

    "God this is magnificent," Hadley exclaimed looking around the penthouse and Maurice creased his eyebrow in surprise.Why does she look so excited over a penthouse? I do not think I ever remember Gilbert being short on money so what is going on with their princess acting like a puppet, Maurice pondered."God look at this amazing city view," Hadley jumped in excitement skipping to the glass window that showed the full view of the city below and she couldn't help but yelp in excitement.A/N: Ok, the countryside's much, she is so obvio.The night was complemented with the bright illuminated moon and the city street light accompanying the magnificent view and Hadley couldn't help but exclaim in excitement because of the amazing view."OMG these rich people really know how to spend money," Hadley exclaimed happily not knowing she said it out loud but a voice behind her froze her immediately."Rich people? I do not remember Gilbert being poor," Maurice says looking at the girl that had deci

    Hadley gulped at the newly laid rules and the room suddenly felt suffocated to her. The rules aren't much but why does it feel so hard and unimaginable to her.Married couples won't touch each other? Hadley pondered looking at the man that was avoiding her like a plague.Looks more serious than I thought, hardly whispering in her head as she gulps."So you mean I can't touch you? Not even a little?" Hadley inquired, poking her head forward but a glare from Maurice stopped her actions."I know you are not really daft not to understand my words so I am going to implore Miss Ella not to go overboard," Maurice says but Hadley knew that he was threatening her.Maurice looked at the girl that was looking at him with a Stony face and he wondered if she was really the docile Ella he knew."Ok," Hadley answered through gritted teeth and she let out an awkward smile. "Good I was scared that you don't have a comprehensive mind," Maurice says walking to the bed as he lies on it.Hadley turned al

    Hadley looked at the man that was just staring at her suspiciously and she wondered if something was wrong with him.Is he deaf?"I am sorry Miss but I don't understand what you are saying," the man says with a soothing voice that suddenly makes Hadley self-aware.How does a man's voice sound so smooth while mine sounds like a frog's?"You..

She has never met a handsome blond before but the man in front of her looks extraordinary."Ohh sorry I didn't notice I was actually in a rush, did you get hurt?" He asked, his face laced with worry and Hadley let out an embarrassed smile."No, I wasn't hurt?" She answered and the man looked at her in shock. "You aren't hurt?" He asked not believing that she could go to that extra length because of ice cream but what he doesn't know is that Hadley was pettier than he coul

    Inside the Gilbert’s mansion, Robert was seen sitting alone in the living room. After Robert Gilbert, Hadley, and Ella's father, ordered for the explosion of the building, he went home like he did nothing wrong to create a perfect alibi for himself. “Hello, I hope you did a clean job.” He breathed into his phone as he watched the news broadcasting about the explosion of the building. “Yes boss.” The person at the other end of the phone assured him.“That's good, make sure you go into hiding because the police might get up to something we wouldn't want, right?” He said, hanging up on the phone.He would make sure that he cleaned off any evidence that might make the people suspicious of him. He needed to save his empire, and if sacrificing his two daughters was the price, he surely wouldn't hold it down.“Now that I have this with me, I don't think anything would ever stand in my way in the business world.” Robert beamed, and he picked up the file to go to his room, but his wife rushed

    The news about Ella's death reached the Elliott's family, and they all rushed down to the police station to confirm it because it was unbelievable to them. “Where is my son?” Mrs. Elliot asked, and the police officers took her to Maurice, who was sulking at the check room where Hadley's body was placed. “Maurice.” Mrs. Elliot called slowly as she walked to Maurice, but the man didn't bother to look at her. “They are telling a lie, Mom. They are all saying that the woman on that table is my wife, how can that be?” Maurice blurted, and his mother's feast aches watching her son suffer so much. Her eyes trailed to the body on the table, which was covered with clothes, and she knew that officers couldn't be wrong with the identity. “Maurice, please, I'm sure that they couldn't be wrong with the identity of the body..” Mrs. Elliot was saying, but Maurice cut her off. “What did you mean by body? How is that a body? What if she is my wife, she has a name and..” Maurice trailed off seeing t

    An Hour Before The ExplosionHadley, Ella, and their mother were locked in a dark room by their father, with no way out. Hadley looked at her sister, who was in pain, and barely hanging on, and she hated herself for not telling Maurice about her father's plot.He would have prevented this from happening, but she was too stupid to grooved that her father was not the monster he was.“Are you okay, Ella? Are they in pain?” Hadley asked an obvious question, but Ella just chuckled. “I don't think that we should worry about me because I feared that any of us would be able to escape from here.” Ella said.“No, we would be able to escape, believe me, okay?” Hadley assured, but she knew she was the one that needed that assurance.“But how? Did you think we can..” Ella was saying, but she broke into tears. “Why are you crying, Ella? Can you not handle the pain?” Her mother asked, and Hadley got worried.“I'm sorry, I got you all into all this mess.” she said, but Hadley shook her head. “That's

    The afternoon sun slithered into the room, and Maurice groaned as he turned around on the bed. He has a horrible night, and coupled with his drunk self he has to wake up with a hangover.“Damn!” Maurice cursed as he felt his head banging with a headache, he pried his eyes open gently, and looked around the room he was in.He wasn't surprised that he wasn't in his room because he feared he might do something Hadley would hate him for if he stayed there.“This is crazy!” He cursed as he got down from the bed, but he almost lost his balance because his eyes were a bit blurry. He couldn't believe that he drank himself to stupor. “It's all her fault.” Maurice murmured.A part of him believed that Hadley didn't betray him, but he was too jealous and he acted rashly. He walked to the kitchen to fix himself a hangover soup, but he hoped that he wouldn't bump into Hadley because he feared he might not be able to control himself.He might have fallen to his knees and begged her not to divorce h

    Hadley's heartbeat increased as she feared who was coming into the room, but she released her breath when she saw the person, who just came in.“Are you okay, ma'am?” The maid, who just entered the room asked, and Hadley let out the breath she was holding.“Yes, I am.” She replied hurriedly, and hid the file she was holding. The maid was suspicious about Hadley's movement, but she couldn't pressure her if she wasn't ready to talk.She wouldn't want to lose her job. “Ok ma'am, then I will leave you to it.” The maid said, as age walked off and Hadley let out the breath she was holding. “Oh my goodness! That was such a narrow escape.” She mumbled.She looked at the file in her hand, and she knew she had to get out of the house before Maurice woke up. She wouldn't want to get caught by the man.“I have to get this to the heartless man before he does something to my sister.” She muttered, and walked out of that room. She got to the backdoor of the house, and sneaked out without anyone seei

    The starry night was illuminated by the moon, but Hadley felt gloomy as she looked at it. She was devastated and didn't know what to do.After she left the party while chasing after Maurice, she had this unsettling feeling that something was going wrong, and she didn't even know what that could be.“Are you not coming in, ma'am?" Hadley heard one of the maids ask, and she beamed her a smile telling her that she was fine.“No, I am going to wait for my husband," Hadley replied, asking the maid not to worry about her. Yes, Maurice wasn't home even though they left the party together. He was kind of her to ask her to enter the car but immediately he dropped her off the zoomed off without saying a thing.How was she supposed to explain to him when he wasn't even giving her a chance to do that?“It is all that prick's fault, how could he have hugged me?

    The whole ballroom fell into silence, and Nicholas's gesture raised an eyebrow to everyone in the room, and they were all curious as to what Hadley was going to do. “What are you doing, Mr. Sanders?” Hadley asked through gritted teeth warning the man to behave herself, and she wondered why Maurice was silent on the matter.He wasn't that quiet, so she understood what was going on. Maybe she should be worried after all.“I am asking you to dance, Mrs. Elliot? Did you find it so wrong?” he asked, and she hissed hearing his words.She was sure that he was trying to get Maurice to lose his temper in front of those people, and when Hadley started wanting to lash out at the man, Maurice interrupted her.“You are really funny, Mr. Sanders I almost mistaken you for a comedian instead of a businessman. How could you ask my wife to accompany you?” Maurice asked, and his chilly voice resonated through the room, and the bustling atmosphere dampened.Maurice has that effect, his voice alone was e

    Days passed, and Maurice was finally discharged from the hospital but as time passed Hadley kept getting withdrawn because of her father's pressure on her.He kept pressuring her about her sister's health, and making different threats about her so that Hadley couldn't succumb to his threats. She hasn't come up with a plan, and she couldn't inform Maurice who just woke up to help her out.“What are you thinking about?” Maurice asked, and Hadley jolted in fear hearing his words because she didn't know that the man was behind her.“When did you get here?” she asked, trying to get the man's hand off her but the man wasn't letting her go.He could sense that she hadn't herself the past few days, and it might be that his secret fears were finally surfacing.Maybe she wanted to leave him, Maurice thought, but he was planning to hold onto her no matter what.“Did you just get out of the shower?
