Not wanting to stay a work a moment longer; Emmett heads for the elevator to go home. “My wife is a feisty vixen’ he says smiling at how that made him feel. He pulls out his phone and messages Simone he finished work early and is on his way.

‘I thought he had a meeting?’ Simone says to herself, packing up her laptop to put back in the spare room. ‘It must have finished early.’

Once the laptop was securely away; she looks at the time. “It’s too early to start dinner” she tells herself, reading 2.36pm on the clock. She decided to sit on the sofa and watch television. Simone wasn’t big on watching television. Her life was too busy to really take an interest in it. Without working and having Tiffany around, she was feeling bored. Normally when she got this way; she would dress up as Leona to give the press something to discuss.

‘There’s a thought’ Simone says to herself. She makes a mental note for herself, that is what she was going to do tomorrow with Tiffany.

I have a great dress; we will be envied by everyone” she states; changing her voice to a more seductive tone. “We can officially announce ourselves as a couple.”“Is that so?” Drake says, moving from behind his desk to lean himself on the front of it.

I want us to be a couple, so bad” Claire remarks; ready to put her hands on his shoulders. “We were made for each other.”Drake grabs her wrists before she could touch him.

Lester races into Emmett’s room; “How could you do that to Simone?” he yells; looking down at the pair, sleeping in one another’s arms, naked. “You said you loved her and only her.”“How can who, do what to me?” Simone groggily questions; rolling over, covering herself with the blanket. The blonde wig she was wearing falling half off her head as Emmett decided he wanted to make love to her with

    Walking through the park hand in hand; Drake and Leona, smile affectionately at one another. This was all for show; they knew the paparazzi were hiding themselves behind nearby trees and in the children’s play centre. Vince and Tiffany were strolling in front and Jason; Drake’s bodyguard and personal assistant of 5 years, was behind them.Simone had met the darker skinned man a few times. Emmett had introduced him as a close friend and didn’t question it. According to Emmett; he didn’t lie because Jason is a close friend as well as his assistant and bodyguard.Jason wasn’t sure of Vince’s abilities as a bodyguard because he was Tiffany’s boyfriend. That lead the two of them into a sparring match which ended in a stalemate.“Vince; you may have martial arts training behind you. You are yet to show your skills as a marksman” Jason states, as the quintet stops near a pond in the centre of the park.“Why don’t you both just flip out your cocks and measure while you’re at it” Tiffany remar

It was his.” “What do you mean?” Emmett asks, calming down slightly. “What happened in High School?”“Do you want to know or are you going to yell at me some more?” Simone shoots back at him. ‘I have to tell him. But he has to know; he can’t do anything to Richard’ she tells herself.“I’m all ears” Emmett states, undoing his seatbelt to give his full attention to his wife.“Before I start; I need your word you are not going to use this against Richard” Simone states as Emmett snorts in her direction. “Your word.”“I can’t promise that” Emmett says, wondering why she would even ask him.“Then you will have to trust me. Richard will not reveal Leona’s identity and he will not continue chasing after me” Simone says, pursing her lips and clutching the door handle to leave.Grabbing her arm to stop her; “I give my

Instead of having only three people who knows who I am; I have seven” Simone states as her two friends drag her from the house. They had to tell Jason; he questioned how Leona got into the car and Simone had got out of the car.“We just can’t have you sitting around being the trophy wife” Tiffany injects as the trio get into the car and head to their favourite café.“And since you are the wife of Drake Spencer; you can pay” Vince chuckles looking at the two ladies in the rear-view mirror.

This is the only way” Simone sighs; already preparing herself for the onslaught.“I’ve already sent a text to Jase; he is going to meet us in the lobby” Vince injects, looking at the two ladies in the rear-view mirror.

Cheryl helped establish it with the money given to her from Evelyn when she passed away. “Dad; we leaving shortly” Simone calls out as Phillip comes out of the playroom with Lauren in his arms and two three-year-olds hanging onto each leg. “Thank you for looking after them tonight” she adds.“You don’t have to thank me” Phillip beams, placing Lauren in the playpen and picking up e

    Tiffany walks through the door of the birthing suite. Seeing the little bundle in Emmett’s arms, she walks over to him. “There’s my little goddaughter” she coos, taking her from Emmett.“Hmm-hmm” Simone sounds, clearing her throat for Tiffany to look at her. She glances up and sees the second baby attached to Simone’s breast. Her mouth gapes open as she glances between the two babies.“Twins? When the fuck were you going to tell us?” Tiffany whisper shouts at Simone. “And why didn’t you tell me you were in labour and heading to the hospital?”“I couldn’t tell you about this one because I didn’t know. This little man decided he wanted to stay hidden. The amnio results were taken from Isabella’s fluid sac since his was behind hers” Simone whisper shouts her explanation back to Tiffany, who starts smiling and cooing at Isabella. “As for being in labour; I didn’t get a chance to tell you. I called Emmett to let him know my waters broke and before I knew it; he was carrying me to the car.”

    Emmett raced to the hospital with Simone protesting beside him to slow down. ‘I knew it wasn’t Braxton Hicks this time’ Emmett fumes in his mind. “Slow down, Emmett” she says again, pulling him out of his thoughts.He looks over to her and beams a smile in her direction; “we are going to meet our little girl” he says as another contraction hits Simone and she screams out in pain. “We are almost there” he whispers in a hushed tone.He pulls up out of the emergency department. Linda is waiting out the front with a wheel chair for them to arrive. “You called Linda?” he asks as she nods and tries to breathe through another contraction.“How far apart are the contractions?” Linda asks Emmett.He gives her a blank stare; “I was a bit preoccupied, trying to get her to the hospital; I forgot to time them. If I was to guess, they are 2-3 minutes apart” he tells her.“And her waters broke while she was on the phone to me. Let’s get her up and see how far along she is” Linda states as Emmett pus

    Sitting at her desk; Simone started fidgeting as she glanced at the doorway, hoping Cheryl, Vince, Tiffany, Jonathon and Matilda would walk through. “Calm down” Emmett states, running his hands through his hair as he sat on the sofa. “You decided to let Cheryl and Tiffany go to the runway show and be pleasantly surprised at the clothes tomorrow night.” They decided not to tell Emmett the real reason behind not going to the production warehouse for the final and gave him the excuse she wanted to be pleasantly surprised. It was a good thing too, since the day at the hotel with Alexandro; she had been getting Braxton Hicks contractions every couple of days.“I know” Simone murmurs, walking out from behind her desk and taking a seat next to Emmett on the sofa. “I’m nervous because I’m not there to stop Alexandro for doing or saying anything to Jonny.”“He wouldn’t be game with Vince or Tiff there” Emmett chuckles, putting his arms around her and pecking the side of her head. Emmett pulls

    Over the next few weeks; to Simone’s surprise, Alexandro stayed away from her when she went to the warehouse for the production. Holly and Quintin confirmed he hadn’t been asking questions about her or her relationship with Emmett anymore. ‘Maybe he has finally gotten the hint’ she says to herself.Emmett had made an effort to get to know Albert for the time he was in Rocky Valley and both decided to keep in touch. “I’m glad you and Al could become friends” Simone says to Emmett in the bedroom as she steps into her green maternity dress to get ready to head over to the production warehouse. “He really is a great guy.”“Ehh” Emmett voices with a shrug of his shoulders, causing Simone to giggle at his attempt to downplay his friendship with an old school colleague. “Are you and Vince taking Jonny in today?”“Yes” Simone replies, putting her watch on her wrist and looking at the time. “He should be heading up any…” she didn’t get to finish her sentence when they heard the knock on the do

    Albert had left the room to head down to the lobby. He had mentioned to Adam before walking out the door to make sure the ladies were safe; one thing he was certain of, Alexandro wasn’t to be trusted with them. He had a feeling Simone’s comment to the hotel receptionist; Emmett would be notified of their whereabouts and would be there soon. He wanted to explain his involvement before it got out of hand.He barely made it out of the elevator before Emmett ran through the front door; stopping dead and folding his arms in front of him with a smirk on his face. “Why am I not surprised; he had you kidnap my wife” Emmett spits at the man in front of him.Albert’s eyes widen with Emmett’s statement before composing himself again. Leona only told him Emmett wasn’t her brother; he didn’t know any other details. “What kidnapping?” Albert states; glaring back at Emmett as two more men walk through the doorway to stand behind him. “They came freely and Leona gave you a message she was ok on the s

    Caitlyn and Simone were shocked they were ushered into a waiting vehicle out the back of the supermarket. Because of this, Simone was inwardly cursing herself for leaving Sandy and Cheryl without giving them an explanation on what was happening. She was even more annoyed both of them had left their handbags in the trolleys so she couldn’t message Emmett what was going on and tell him she was ok; ‘hopefully he will see the camera footage and know they were fine’ she tells herself.“We should have bought our bags with us” Caitlyn giggles, trying to lighten the mood with a joke. She too was annoyed she didn’t think it would be more than two minutes to go out the back to talk. Seeing Simone wasn’t amused by her comment; Caitlyn turns her attention to the men in the front seat. “Al; we understand he can’t leave and everything. Why is it important for him to see us?”The chestnut brown-haired man driving, looked at the two women behind him in the rearview mirror. He didn’t say anything exce
