Chapter 5

Carla Simpson

POV

This day was a mess, I went from not knowing this guy straight into dating Kyler, then thrown into being his fiancée. I could not believe it I was getting married next month. The icing on the cake was someone finding a girl that looked exactly like me. how could I forget the worst of them all, oh I know I seem to have forgotten about the most embarrassing of them all Kyler’s mom caught us in he is office.

His mother who was supposed to be at home resting since she was sick, yet there she was in his office. She knew what we had down because our clothes were thrown all over his office. Could this day be any more dramatic and any more movie like? It reminds me of those Indian series on Zee world, where everything that can go wrong goes wrong. I pray my life does not get anymore dramatic than it already is.

After I am done getting dressed, I make my way for Aaron’s office door so I could go to work since I have not been to the office yet for the day. I stop dead in my tracks when Kyler’s phone goes off. Worried it might be the people he had asked to find out about the girl who looks like me, I stay put waiting for him to end the call.

"What did you get?” he asks

...

“What? Are you sure?” he asks in a surprise tone

....

“Find out why and how that is possible. I want word within the hour” he demands

....

“So, her names Nikita Jones”

...

“Thank you..." he says before he hangs up the phone.

I stand there looking like an idiot. Kyler pockets his phone and walks towards me. He places my hands in his.

"Carla she's your sister, I don't know how but you were separated at birth. It seems like the doctors at the hospital only gave your mom one child. Carla I am sorry" he says apologetically

He hugs me and I completely break down I finally have a piece of my mom and dad I have a sister. I finally have something that ties me to my family. Words cannot describe how much joy fills my heart right now. Someone who shares my DNA.

"Thank you, thank you Kyler this means a lot to me. Where is she now? How much do they want? Kyler, please help me we have to do something" I say through sobs

He hugs me tighter as if he were scared to let go of me. I wrap my arms around him. we had to save her. we had to do everything in our power to get her back, I cannot lose her before I have even had the chance to meet her. A chance to get to know her

"Okay Carla don't worry my people have her she's at my hotel, I can take you there right now..." He says soothingly

"Thank you, Kyler thank, you so much this means the world to me thank you for this. I finally feel like my life is coming together, I finally have a family, a guy I like, and a sister" I could not stop thanking him for being there for me, for helping me get my sister, my sister back. I could not believe I had a sister.

Oh My God... I have a sister a living breathing sister and it is all thanks to Kyler, if it were not for him, if he did not go with me to the mall, I would never have known I have a sister.

"Don't worry baby I'm here" he says kissing the top of my head.

And he hugs me tighter. Somehow hugging him makes me feel safe and better.

As soon as I regain my composure, we head to the hotel. His driver drove us. The ride over was the most stressful thing I have ever come across in my life. it was the longest ride of my life. Once we reach the hotel, he holds my hand tightly, I think he could feel my body trembling. When we walked into the hotel room, and I saw her I had this weird feeling, it felt like I found a piece of me I have been missing for 20 years.

For the first time in twenty years, I feel complete. I feel as if I had known her my whole life. It was awkward we did not say anything to each other just stared for a couple of minutes.

Then Kyler finally spoke. "Hey, I'm Kyler your future brother-in-law, and this is your sister Carla, my fiancé"

He stretched out and waves at her and greeted her

"Hi I'm Nikita. Nice to meet you" she says softly

She waves back at Kyler and me, I just stood there like a statue not able to move any part of my body, today was just too much for me I felt lightheaded, my body felt heavy and then everything went blank, I could not see anything.

Kyler Jacobs

POV.

I found out today that Carla had a twin sister, it seems like her mom gave birth to twins and did not know about it. or that is the information I had gotten from my PI.

The hospital staff sold Nikita to the Jones family. I told my personal guards to keep Nikita safe until we got there. We had to make sure she was protected, being from a high-profile family came with death threats. On our way to the hotel, I could feel that Carla’s nervousness.

It was basically radiating off of her. So, I did the only I knew how to do, I held her hand. When we got to the room, the two have not even said I word to each other, I could not take it anymore, so I introduced myself. I soon felt something was wrong and suddenly Carla collapsed in my arms.

I hold her in my arms.

“Carla? Carla?” I lightly tap on her face, but she was unresponsive.

I feel for a pulse it was barely there. Dammit.

I lift her into my arms bridal style. I rush downstairs and drive her straight to the hospital.

When we get to the hospital, we are led into a private ward the doctors check her and connect her to monitors and give her an injection through her IV.

My mind is running wild. I cannot believe my mind is running crazy over a girl I just met. Right now, I just want her to be safe, and in my arms. I have never felt this way about anyone before, I have never felt this connected to anyone in my life before.

I just want to protect her from every and keep her safe in my arms all the time and not let anyone touch her.

The Doctor came out.

"Dr Stanton how’s my Fiancée? Is she okay? What happened to her?"

"Mr. Jacobs she was poisoned; we need to pump her stomach and she needs surgery to drain the poison out of her blood or she might die. You arrived just in time. I will need her family to sign for the surgery" he explains her condition

"Poisoned? That is not possible she has been with me all day.” I say thinking if she had anything to eat today. “Her family? She has an aunt. I will call her aunt" I say taking my phone remembering I do not have her phone number.

My mind just went blank. Who the hell has the nerve to hurt my angel? They are courting death! I get her aunts number from Carla's phone

"Hello?" she answers after three rings.

"Hello, I'm Kyler, Carla is in the hospital can you please come to the hospital the doctor needs your signature to sign for surgery please she could die" I explain

"Oh, my word. Carla I-I'm on my way." She stutters

"I'll arrange a car to bring you with a police escort, it will be faster if you send me your address, please" I explain to her. she needs to get her right now. No time to waste in traffic. LA traffic was terrible this time of day.

"Thank you, Kyler,” she thanks me.

I contact the police chief asking him a favor. I helped him out a couple of months ago, so he told me I should call if I ever needed anything and now, I am calling in that favor. With that I arranged her someone to pick her up and the police Chief arranged a police escort for Carla’s aunt within fifteen minutes Carla’s aunt arrived at the hospital. Carla's life is in her hands now.

When she arrived, she immediately signs the documents and asks me what happened, I reply honestly tell her that she has been with me all day except when she went to the reception desk at my building.

After that I tell my assistant to track Carla's movements today and yesterday. Right now, all I can think about is Carla a half an hour passes, and Nikita walks in and asks how’s Carla, I tell her still in surgery.

Carla's aunt asks whose Nikita, honestly right now I have no idea how to tell her I am only worried about Carla. Nikita explains to her what she knows about what happened all she knows is she was adopted and when she looked for her birth parents they died.

How could they not realize they had the same name? Did Carla’s mother name Nikita after her sister? Or is it a wild coincidence?

Carla's aunt went crazy started crying and hugging Nikita. After 5 hours Carla is finally out of surgery. I finally breathe a sigh of relieve when I see she is okay. I am glad she is okay. She is going to be okay.
