Chapter 138 –  Even Twelve

(Finn’s POV)

Five years later…

As I talked to my brother, I leaned on my chair, propping my elbows on the table as I massaged my temple. Lexi had been giving me a hard time lately, and no matter how I explained to her that I didn’t care about not having children, I would still find her crying in the middle of the night.

“Sky, I don’t know what to do. We could adopt one if she really wanted a baby-” I wanted to cry at my brother.

“Just be patient with her, Finn. We all know how much she has wanted to have her own child since the day she saw her nephew. And for sure, she’s having this kind of low feeling again because her twin sister just gave birth.”

I heaved a sigh. “I know, but she was making me crazy lately.”

“You know what? You two need a break. Why don’t you bring her on a date? Give all your time to her tonight,” he suggested.

“You’re right. Maybe I’ve been working too hard,” I muttered. “Thanks, brother. Please, come home already. Be there on the weekend, okay?”

  • My Bossy Secretary   Chapter 1 –  The Magic Show

    (Finn’s POV)The president of Absolute Glam stopped at one table and talked to an important guest. Her lips curved a sweet smile at the country’s ambassador, and she nodded, probably acknowledging something he had said. For two years of running the company, she had truly made the shareholders happy with her performance, and with her lineup of perfumes and cosmetics innovations, the sales rose, something my father would have loved to see.I heaved a sigh, watching my brother walk toward her, giving her a quick kiss on her cheek, and despite being married, twice, she still blushed with just a peck.Where on earth would I find another woman like her? Not only was she an epitome of true beauty, but she has also become a symbol of the company and the genius behind Mars Group of Companies.“Don’t stare too much, Finn. People might think you’re jealous,” Frank teased me. “Who wouldn’t? Too bad I couldn’t add her to my collection.” I chuckled. I took the wine glass from the table without br

    (Finn’s POV)Catherine, my brother’s secretary, glanced at the cake box I placed on her table, but she didn’t say anything about it. I sat on the couch and leaned back, peeking at the glass door, but I couldn’t see who he was talking with at the moment.His secretary looked briefly at me again and then at the cake box. I knew it wasn’t the cake she asked me to bring and also had the knowledge she didn’t like it, but she was making me crazy. I stared and hissed at her.“Just say it, Catherine,” I uttered in annoyance as my eyes followed her when she stood up to get a document from the cabinet. “You’re making me nuts.”She looked at me and shook her head. “Mr. Mars, you really want to hear what I want to say?”I rolled my eyes. If she weren’t older than me, and she wasn’t like part of the family already, I wanted to yell at her. First, I was too angry last night that I couldn’t get a wink. Second, Lex, maybe it wasn’t even her actual name, took all my cash the previous night. Lastly, Sk

    (Lexi’s POV)Luna made me more anxious as she followed me while I paced worriedly in the living room. I glanced at the time, wanting to scream at my twin sister. She promised me she would hurry back as soon as she got money from Aunt Becky, our mother’s sister and the only living relative we knew.We were in our last year of high school when our father, an underground mining operator, died in an accident at work. Some of my father’s coworkers and friends encouraged our mother to sue the company, but she did not push through with it because, first off, she was pregnant, and second, she was in her ninth month of pregnancy. Instead, Mom accepted the little amount she got from the company and used it to start again.Lexa was horrified by her decision, but she explained that she was only being practical, not wanting us to starve and not to stop studying. But Dad seemed sad in heaven without our mother, and just three months after his death, Mom died of hypothermia when a strong typhoon hit

    (Lexi’s POV)‘I sold my soul to the devil.’ I remembered what Lexa told me last night. My heart broke, imagining my twin sister desperate to seek money for our Aliyah. How exactly did she sell her soul? It was a question I wanted to bring up last night, but Mr. Gorgeous-But-Rude just answered my question now.Fighting my tears, I took my wallet, but when I opened it, the cash I had reminded me it was enough for my fare to return to the hospital; otherwise, I would have to walk. I have never been so embarrassed in my whole life, but I couldn’t call my sister to clear her name because the moment I agreed with her to pay the down payment, I considered myself an accomplice to her crime.“How much did she get from you?” I asked again, but my voice was lower, almost not audible. I raised my head, meeting his eyes, but I wanted to jump back whenever he glared at me.“Why don’t you ask her? If you really have a twin, call her,” he gave me his phone, and it took me a few seconds to take it,

    (Lexi’s POV)I imagined a small eating place, but when we arrived, it was a fine dining restaurant, and I immediately recognized the two Michelin stars. I almost couldn’t enter the door because if it was one of Frank’s pranks, I have no money to pay for his lavish choice.It was not a date, but he led me to the far corner of the dining area, and the waiter came in a hurry to get our order as soon as we sat.“The usual, Ivan,” he said, smiling at him.He nodded and left us.I didn’t see the ‘usual’ menu, not even the menu card. If only I had known this was his plan, I should have just lied about having food allergies, like eating any kind of food gave me allergies.“This is not a date, right?” My eyes were wide as I looked at Frank, sitting across from me.He shook his head. “If this is a date, I will not bring you here and let my brother torture me twenty-four hours.”I made a quick look at the restaurant and leaned my head forward. “You own this restaurant?”He shook his head. “My br

    (Lexi’s POV)We returned to the office just in time for my appointment with Angela. Frank led me to the couch and told me to wait for Catherine to call me, then he returned to his table to work. I took my cell phone and checked Lexa’s messages. I didn’t hear her call, but I replied to her message that I would return to the hospital as soon as possible.Catherine went out of Sky’s office. “Lexi, you can come inside now. Good luck!”“Good luck!” Frank glanced and winked at me.My cheeks turned apple red, and I didn’t know why I felt nervous when Angela and I would only talk about the children’s music lessons. When I entered the large private office, my eyes looked for Angela immediately, but she wasn’t around.“Please, take a seat, Lexi,” Sky said, gesturing me to sit on the chair in front of his table. “My children’s nanny called, and she couldn’t stop my girls in their little argument, so Angela had to go home for a while to check on them. She said she’ll call you later, and maybe she

  • My Bossy Secretary   Chapter 7 –  Hot and Cold

    (Finn’s POV)Lexa! Lexi!I should have known it from a person who was born with a twin. I was too mad at Lexa and stupid to realize they were two different people. Just like my nieces, it wasn’t easy to see the difference at first glance. Besides, when I met Lexa, it was not well lit on the rooftop, but somehow, I was caught with a need and her charm, binding me in her spell that I believed in her magic.Last night, I spent many hours deciding if I should call Lexa, but every time I asked myself for a good reason why I would do it, I could not think of a valid reason for doing so. I let Lexi use my cellphone yesterday, not because I wanted to catch her if she were lying to me, but I did it because if she weren’t that person I was hoping to see again, I would be able to get her number.I squinted as I stared at the hot woman singing on the bar’s small stage. She was singing beautifully that I never imagined I would get enchanted by a woman like this. If I knew she was so desperate to g

    (Finn’s POV) “They seemed not happy that you are leaving the band,” I said, noticing the man on the drums following us with his eyes. I opened the door for her, and when we got out, she stopped, closed her eyes, and raised her head, breathing out in relief. Lexa was quiet for a few seconds, only breathing in and out. She opened her eyes and looked at me. “Don’t worry about them, Finn. They’re happy for me, going home early for the first time, not just glad going out with a handsome man with me.” She chuckled. “They’re like my family, Finn, and for years of singing with them, they had always protected me like their little sister,” she explained. “Of course,” I opened the passenger door at the back of my car, letting her in before I got in. “To the hospital,” I said to Jimmy, who nodded quietly and started the car. Our ride to our destination was not long, so starting a conversation would not be wise. I waited patiently as I had already instructed Jimmy to stop the car at the café i

  • My Bossy Secretary   Chapter 137 –  Surprise!

    (Finn’s POV)My sister-in-law walked with my brother onto the stage and curved a sweet smile on her lips as she looked at everyone. Six months ago, I was here, watching my brother and my gorgeous sister-in-law make a very special announcement about the success of the company’s new project.At that time, I wondered where I would find another woman like Angela, but now, Frank and I were seated in the same spot with our own date. This wasn’t a big party, but a gathering with our family, friends, and relatives, wanting to be part of Angela and Sky’s number of babies reveal. Their children, three girls and two boys, were excitedly seated in front, and like us, they also had their guesses on the gender and number of babies.“This is insane and fun!” Anya exclaimed as she and Dylan joined us at the table.“Well, that’s our Angela,” He laughed. “So, let’s have our guess. One! Just one.”“One?” Frank shook his head. “Could be two, another twin.” He looked at Lexa. “What’s your guess, baby?”Le

    (Lexi’s POV)It had been a month since the incident happened, and before Sky and Finn went on a business trip, he decided that the three of us stay in the mansion after the trauma from the Travis siblings. He even talked to Jocelyn, who seldom visited their home, to stay with us for a while. She happily obliged, but deep inside, I knew how much she loved the idea.But I think the one who enjoyed this setup the most was Elenita. She entered the family room and brought us snacks. Another maid came in with a tray filled with glasses, a pitcher of orange juice, and a cup of coffee for Jocelyn. She was sitting on the egg chair and reading Aliyah a book.“Lexi, Lexa,” called Elenita. “Sky’s looking for you in the garden.”“Sky’s back?” Lexa stood up.I pressed my lips, suppressing a smile because we were sure my twin sister was not excited about Sky coming back but about the man he was with.“Is he alone? Do you want me to call Angela?” Her eyes were hopeful as she looked at Elenita.“If Sk

    (Finn’s POV)For how long I had been staring at the cross, I didn’t know. I was about to head back to the hotel, but my feet dragged me to the prayer room where Angela would usually go whenever we were here. As I sat in the front row and looked at the relic of the cross, I sniffled, wishing I was like my sister-in-law, having a big heart and full of faith in something she had never seen in her life.I wasn’t religious, but at this point, I wanted to believe that everything happened for a reason, wishing for miracles and hoping this would soon be over. If only I knew Lexi would get hurt, I should have just stayed in France and didn’t bother coming back.“Hey!” Angela muttered softly, sitting beside me and resting her head on my shoulder.Frank sat on my other side and noticed he had showered and changed his clothes. “Sky is waiting for your decision, Finn.”I took a deep breath. “Send her flowers. Make sure to order her favorites and tell the florist to make a beautiful one.”He nodded

  • My Bossy Secretary   Chapter 134 –  Déjà Vu

    (Finn’s POV)The sky was gravel-gray, looking somber as it waited for the large pillows of clouds to cover the sky. I never liked it when the sky looked sad because its color reflected the seawater, making the sea body melancholic… lifeless. I sighed, thinking it would rain any moment, but instead of looking for shelter, I stepped forward, going to the shore and stopping when the white foam of waves kissed my feet.My eyebrows knitted as my eyes fixed on the horizon, remembering I had been in this place, but I could not pinpoint when or why I was here. When I lowered my gaze, I saw a starfish washed to the shore, softly hitting my toes. I took a deep breath, thinking this had happened before.I closed my eyes and asked myself when or how.Ah, Freya!Now I realized this place didn’t exist, but I was in a state of unreality, a dream I had a few years ago. Only now, I was alone, but when I had this dream, Freya and I went into the water and swam as we loved swimming. And then we sat on t

    (Lexi’s POV)The burly man in the black suit was in the corner of the room; his hands and feet were tied, and his mouth was gagged with a cloth, preventing him from screaming. It was his restrained scream that woke me up.I hardly knew him, but when I woke up earlier, I saw him watching the nurse’s every move, only leaving his post when Jocelyn entered my room. He must be one of the Mars’ security details, but his face was unfamiliar to me since Finn never had one. After what Chelsea did, I understood the danger of being alone in the hospital, but I thought it was too much since I was not an important person to guard.Who would want to kill me?He eyed the young man lying on the floor, and his eyes moved like he was pointing at the man standing and facing the light switch. I pressed the call button, hoping the nurse or anyone would see my emergency call immediately.If my wound were totally healed, I would have filled the room with my scream to get help, but as the man with the syring

    (Lexi’s POV)Somebody must have taped my eyelids because I found them difficult to open. At first, I didn’t mind because Morpheus seemed to drag me into a deep sleep at most times, and believe me, I was happy and contented. I felt at peace with my parents, eating and seeing them delighted as they listened to me. But after we ate, my mom opened her arms and asked me to sit on her lap.I excitedly dashed to her, sitting on her lap. “Mom, I’m heavy already, you know,” I giggled.She pressed her lips on my cheeks. “I know, but I will always see you and Lexa as my babies. My beautiful babies.”My father wrapped his arms around us, humming the song Can’t Take My Eyes Off You. I closed my eyes and sniffled as I listened to him.“We’re so proud of you and your sister,” Dad uttered as he stared at me with great love. I giggled again when they sandwiched me as mom kissed me on my right cheek and dad on my left.“Now, baby, go back to your sisters,” Mom said, her fingers trailing my face and s

    (Frank’s POV)Lexa stared at the charming woman in white uniform for a second before scoffing and walking inside the room where the doctor and another medical specialist were. “Grrr! Of all days, you chose to be here,” I sneered at my cousin and watched Lexa talk to her doctor.“Oh, let me pour my name on your day, Frank,” Felicity grinned, holding my hand and tugging me excitedly beside Lexa on the bed.“You look more excited than the parents, Felicity,” the doctor smiled.Lexa looked at the young nurse; her lips pressed like she wanted to ask me but did not bother to raise the question.“She’s Felicity, my cousin,” I answered Lexa in her unuttered question and watched the doctor apply the gel to her belly. “My mom and her mom are sisters… A Mars.” “Oh,” She exclaimed and glanced at Felicity again. “Oh!” she gasped when the doctor pressed the small device against her skin and began to capture images on the screen.Dr. Lee smiled. “There’s your growing bundle of joy,” she exclaimed

  • My Bossy Secretary   Chapter 130 –  Still Had Trust Issues

    (Frank’s POV)I never thought the long meeting would ever end. The Travis case seemed never-ending, and looking at Finn, like me, he wished to escape and be with the women we loved. Sky had been aware of the case of attempted hacking and had this under investigation. The private investigator reported that the hacking was not just Chelsea’s doing alone, but she was an accomplice to the crime. One thing she somehow did not expect was falling in love deeply with Finn when she had to lure him so her brother could tap into his office without being noticed. Chuck was an old employee of Quick Soft IT whom Sky had terminated three years ago because of grave misconduct, and now he was on the loose after the news of Chelsea’s death leaked on social media.“I’m going back to the hospital,” Finn muttered, looking exhausted.“No,” Sky shook his head, surprising Finn and me.“Sky,” He scowled, his brows knitting in disapproval of his brother’s decision.Sky heaved a sigh and grabbed his brother
