Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire Visiting her billionaire big brother
Rebecca smiled broadly when she saw the huge K logo that led the other letters of the company name. She felt proud of her big brother instantly, knowing that he had accomplished something this big.She quickly headed into the company where she met the receptionist on the first floor. She had scheduled an appointment with the Personal Secretary and assistant to the CEO, so the handsome young man at the desk pointed her in the right direction.Rebecca was thrilled with the arrangement and decoration of the building, both the architect and the other engineers involved had all done a good job with the place. She got into the elevator immediately and headed for the CEO’s floor where she hoped to meet her two favorite people in Las Vegas.Immediately she got out of the elevator, she was greeted with a long empty hall that got her curious. The place was so quiet that she doubted there was anyone available, so why did the receptionist send her here?She examined the place slowly and noticed t

Jimmy climbs down from the car, he is standing in front of Queen Enterprises. He looks around and it feels like he was a stranger in this place. He didn’t like the feeling he was getting from the environment.Jimmy got back into his car and took something out of the front box, he slid it behind his shirt and covered it properly with his jacket. Slowly, he climbed up the stairs at the threshold of the company while observing the place.He wasn’t a regular visitor here but certainly, the people here should be able to recognize him. He is the son of the founder and owner of the Company, James Queen… Even if they don’t know him for good things, they would certainly know him for the bad things he has been involved with; in order words, he should be popular around here, so why is everyone giving him the stranger look?He got into the building and walked past the front security without a care, why does he need to identify himself? This was his company! One of the security men gave him a weir

About four security men came trooping into the office immediately but Jimmy was quick to aim the gun at them, making them pause on their tracks. “No one comes closer and they will get a bullet!!” he warned.“Just relax man, let's talk this through, I swear the whole thing was a joke, don’t do something that you will regret.” Steve pleaded.“Oh, is it a joke now? I will give you a chance to sign those damn papers and then leave this company, never to return… go ahead and sign it immediately!!” Jimmy yelled and turned the gun back towards Steve while carefully watching the security guards.“Alright… I will sign it, just calm down man, calm down!” Steve begged.“Don’t waste my time or you will get a bullet through your legs first, don’t think that I cannot do it because I sure can. Take the pen now and start signing!!” Jimmy ordered with a warning, his heart beating fast and his eyes moving from one corner of the room to another.“Okay, I am on it,” Steve replied in fear, trying not to s

“So Jimmy was like, I knew it, you don’t love me, why? Is it because I am not your favorite son?” Rebecca narrated and they all burst into laughter.“Does he always use that line?” Aria asked immediately.“Well, it is the only line he has got these days, I mean… ever since Xavier showed up, he is always trying to play victim, with Xavier being the favorite son that they never had. He doesn’t hesitate to pull that card whenever he is denied something.” Rebecca replied.Xavier hummed and shook his head, “Then we should better clear that up. I have no intention of stealing his spot in the family, let him know that the next time you see him.”“You mean if he wishes to talk to me?” Rebecca scoffed. “Your so-called twin brother has been running a one man crusade lately, he doesn’t even tell father what he is up to, he just does whatever he feels like doing. Can you believe that he trusts that Steve guy more than he trusts his own family?”“Pfft… that can't be true, I am sure he cares but he

Xavier watched Rebecca as he drove into the precinct, she might pretend all she wants to care less about her brother but the truth still remains that she cared about him, why else would she be panicking at the news that he almost killed someone and could possible be seeing the four corners of the jail room if charges are filed.He parked his car at a good spot and they immediately walked into the station. It was not hard to locate the Queen family as once again, they had come to the police station. It was slowly becoming a regular thing now, visiting the police station.Mr. and Mrs. Queen are surprised to see Xavier show up at the scene, they had almost mistaken him for Jimmy but it didn’t make sense that he was coming in from the front door dressed in an office suit.“Xavier?” his mother called softly, shocked to see him. She was beginning to think that she would never see him again after he legally disowned them, so what brought him here today?“Mother,” Xavier replied softly, with

The Queen family came outside the station and learnt that Jimmy had left with their driver, it appears that he hadn’t taken his car keys from the cops who made the arrest and so he chose to leave with the family car.“Fucking son of a bitch!” Rebecca cursed out loud.“Hey, easy on the language,” Susan scolded immediately and she sighed.“It is okay, I can take you all back in my car if you don’t mind,” Xavier offered.“Are you sure about that? But Rebecca said you had both come from your office, don’t you need to go back?” Mr. Queen asked.“I will, Dad. After you are all safe at home, come on… let's go,” he replied and headed to his car.Rebecca stared at her parents and smiled, she gave them that face, like saying… “I told you, he is the perfect son that you never had.”They all followed Xavier to his car and got in, with Rebecca at the front seat with him. He immediately drove off as he needed to be back at the office before closure, he had promised Aria that he would come back earl

Once again, the Queens family was gathered in their living room. It was just yesterday that they had gotten Jimmy out of police custody for attempting to kill his best friend Steve.“What else is new, Dad? You sent for me?” Jimmy groaned as he took a seat far from them.Rebecca was the missing member of the family, she didn’t see how any of the latest developments affected her, it was not her problem to worry about.“Well, your friend just cut us off and by that, I mean that our trust fund from the company is frozen, the son of a bitch cut us out and now we only have our personal trust fund to rely on.” Mr. James announced.“Huh? What are you saying, Dad?” Jimmy asked with wide eyes.“I am saying that if nothing is done in the next few weeks, we are going to be broke… Believe me; in a few weeks from now, we won’t be able to afford anything.” He explained.“That is crazy, how can we suddenly go poor? What happened to all the money in your personal account?” Jimmy queried, while drippi

Jimmy staggered into the house to meet his angry looking parents. He smiled gleefully. “Hey pops!” he said loudly and quickly held the wall for support.From the wide smiles on his face, anyone could tell that it wasn’t just alcohol. He was high on molly as well; a substance that makes me people happy for no reason.Mr. James Queen sighed and folded his arms. “Seriously son? We are running out of funds and you are spending what you have left on drinks. Look around you, there are no more maids or security details because we are unable to afford them anymore, yet you go around spending thousands at night clubs. What in the name of God should we do with you?”Jimmy burst into laughter immediately, he fell to the floor and quickly staggered up like a drunk. He made his way to the couch and sat down.“Relax Dad, I didn’t drink much, not like I could afford more than three bottles. You know what? There are so many fake people in the world, can you believe my old friends wouldn’t even let me

“I have a feeling that your elevator dislikes me,” Rebecca uttered as she walked into the office.Aria looked up and smiled. “Hey, sorry about that, there has been a little glitch but the handyman will be here to fix it shortly,” she replied as she stood up.“I don’t think it is a handyman’s job, Aria.” Rebecca laughed as she hugged her best friend.“Hehe… Yeah, sorry about that anyway… I wasn’t expecting you today, not like you aren’t welcome here at any time or something, it is just that you said you were going to the office today, Miss CEO?” Aria teased.Rebecca snarled and then chuckled. She hated being called that as it reminded her of all the work she had to do. “Yeah, I was supposed to be at the office like I told you yesterday, but something happened this morning and so I couldn’t make it,” she reported as she took a seat.“Really? Is everything fine?” Aria asked almost immediately.“Yeah, you can say that. It is Jimmy…”“What? Is he hurt? Did he get into an accident again? Di
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire Take responsibility for your actions
There is silence in the Queen's empire and it seemed like a person had died there, the whole family sat in the sitting room staring at each other quietly. Disappointment was written all over Susan and James Queen’s faces, they were disappointed in their son Jimmy. Not only because he had gotten a lady pregnant, of course they knew it was inevitable but it was the circumstances surrounding it.Susan always knew he would get a girl pregnant someday before marriage, but at least she expected it to be his girlfriend at that time, not a complete stranger who he had a one night stand with, at the club.They didn’t even know where this lady was from or what she was like, they didn’t know anything about her and that made it difficult for them to make a decision. If this pregnancy turned out to be his own, would they encourage him to get married to a lady they knew nothing about? This was the next generation of the Queen empire that they were talking about, they wouldn’t leave it in incapable

“Dad? You got someone pregnant?” Jimmy yelled and stared at his old man.“Huh? I am pretty sure she is talking to you. When did my name become Jimmy?” he fired back.Jimmy turned back to the lady immediately. “Wait, did you say Jimmy? You didn’t say Jimmy, right? I mean… I don’t even know you, so how can I be responsible for those things?” he yelled.“Those things,” she said, emphasizing on his choice of words. “Are your children, it is me… Mia from the other night at the club, we had a one night stand at the club downtown, I woke up in the morning and you were gone.”“Lies, I don’t remember any of that,” Jimmy retorted immediately.“You don’t remember or you don’t want to remember? It was February 2nd, earlier this year. You mentioned being mad because someone was trying to take your place in the family, we both got drunk and ended up in that room.”“Okay… enough with the details, I admit that I went to that club and I went there on that day as well, but I don’t remember having anyth
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire The Baby Daddy
“So you are just going to stay home again today doing nothing?” Mr. James Queen asked as he walked out to Jimmy in the sitting room.“Dad, I never said I would be doing nothing. As you can see, I am watching a reality show. Now I understand why mom loves these shows, it is so addictive and I love it.” He grinned.“Really? Do you love it or are you just trying to avoid responsibilities like every other day in the past three weeks?” Mr. James Queen asked with a smirk.“Ugh, father! Just let me enjoy this show, believe me… staying indoors alone is much better than hanging around with backstabbers,” Jimmy replied and scoffed.“Son, just because one of your friends betrayed you doesn’t mean that you have to lock yourself away from the rest of the world forever. I thought you should be healed from that trauma by now, since when were you this weak? There was a time I used to believe that had no heart or conscience, what happened to you?” Mr. James queried with a little tone of disappointment
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire Sleepover with the Billionaire CEO
Aria was almost done with cooking when she heard a knock on the door, she groaned and covered the pot immediately. “Mrs. Wesley, I already told you that I haven’t seen your cat!” she yelled as she headed for the door.Well, it was raining cats and dogs outside, the neighbor who couldn’t find her cat had come to see if it was playing with Aria’s fluffy friend, but Aria’s cat had long retreated into its cabin as it was scared of the storm.Aria opened the door immediately with a spoon in her hand and froze the next moment; okay, it wasn’t Mrs. Wesley like she had thought, it was entirely someone else that she didn’t expect to see around here.“Xavier?” she muttered with a look of surprise on her face; what was the CEO and her boss doing standing drenched in the rain?“Hey, mind if I crash at your place today?” he asked while holding himself together, he was shivering and that got her curious. For him to be that wet, he must have been in the rain for at least ten minutes, which can only
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire Convincing the Kingstons to let go
Xavier finally arrived home from Las Vegas and climbed into the elevator. He was thinking of telling his parents the truth this time as he didn’t want to lie to them anymore or keep his relationship with his blood related family a secret from them.What was the need of a family if they had no trust in each other, if they all kept secrets and told lies; those things could easily tear the family apart and he didn’t want that to happen, so he realized it was high time he told them.Just as the elevator door opened and he walked into their sitting room, he caught sight of them laughing while watching TV, he really didn’t expect them to be awake at this time.“Hey Father, Mother… thought you should be asleep by now?” he asked with a smile.“Hmm, look who's back?” Anna replied with a grin on her face as she admired her handsome child. “You know I still remember when I used to change your diapers,” she added teasingly.“Oh stop it mom,” Xavier whined and laughed softly.“Don’t mind your moth
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire Reconciliation
Aria washes her hand after using the restroom, she looks at herself in the mirror and smiles subtly. So far, tonight has been going great and she has had no regrets coming here. Maybe Xavier was right and there was nothing to be scared about, she had panicked for nothing.Aria left the guest restroom and headed back to the living room. She was in the hallway on the second floor when she ran into Jimmy. Her heart skipped at the sight of him, it was just the two of them in the hallway.She sighed and looked down, trying to avoid eye contact with him as they closed in on each other. She had almost walked past him when he grabbed her arm and made her pause. Once again, her heartbeat skipped and she felt goose pimples all over her skin; this was the awkward moment she had been trying to avoid since they got here; being alone with her ex fiancée and former love of her life.“So you here with Xavier, huh?” he muttered rudely.Arianna scoffed softly and pulled her arm off his, she sighed and
Identical Strangers: Once Upon An Empire Dinner at the Queen Empire
Xavier offered Aria his arm for support as she climbed down the car, he had just opened the car door for her and was now helping her get down. They had just arrived at the Queen mansion and the place had been decorated like it was some big event, but there weren’t any new cars from the regular, so Xavier knew that there were no guests; it had to be a private dinner.Xavier and Aria walked into the Queen mansion hand in hand, their presence was immediately noticed as the chattering in the sitting room died down the moment they stepped in.Jaws dropped, eyes widened, mouth agape, breath seized, bodies frozen… They were all astonished by the beautiful sight. Aria had come dressed in a one strap blue gown that glued to her slim body and reached her knees, with a beautiful diamond necklace that Xavier had given her as a gift. He had put it around her neck by himself when he arrived at her place to pick her up earlier today.“Oh my God, Aria? Is this really you?” Susan asked with dropped ja

Xavier walks into Aria’s office and finds her packing folders with her back to the door. He knew he was supposed to be here three hours earlier but he had gotten caught up at the meeting with the Queen Enterprises board members.“Hey, Aria.” He called softly.“Arghh!!” she panicked and turned around immediately.He paused and raised his hands. “Chill, it is just me, sorry I am late.” He apologized immediately.“Forget about being late, you scared the life out of me,” she whimpered and gasped for air.Xavier smiled “Okay, sorry about that, was never my intention but I wouldn’t deny enjoying watching you make that face.” He teased.“Huh?” she muttered with wrinkled eyebrows.He laughed softly. “You look cute when you are scared, not like you don’t look cute when you are feeling other things, I mean… okay, I will just hold it there.” He said immediately.He couldn’t understand why he struggled with words whenever he was with her, yes… he was usually persona and chose his words carefully
