Our Secret Identities Chapter 198 – Going Down the Catwalk
Simone, Roberta and Matthew got called into the production set to see the catwalk for all the designers. Simone was excited to see what everyone had designed for their first challenge and were given a rundown of each designer teams inspiration. All three managers take their seats to the side of the stage as the designers were ushered to a particular seating arrangement before the models head down the catwalk.Urick and Jemma were the first to walk down the runway. They had matching outfits depicting Moulin Rouge in Paris. Jemma wore a red and black corset dress with ruffles on the skirt; whereas Urick was dressed in a three-piece suit in with a red Steampunk tail coat and top hat. “Wow; they got that done in 2 days. I’m amazed” Roberta whispers to Simone and Matthew as they both nod their heads in agreement.Suzie and Trent were next to come down the runway; inspired by the Australian Bottle Brush Tree. Suzie’s dress was a tight-fitting pencil dress made from burgundy, green and brow

Sitting behind her desk; Simone was beginning to get nervous as she waited for the models to head back. She was anxious to see who was eliminated as well as hear how Holly and Quinten went in the scheme of things.“Will you relax” Tiffany says, coming into the room. “From what you were saying; Holly and Quin did a great job. There’s no need to worry and you can take your mind off of things because I have Cheryl coming in shortly to discuss the financials.”“I’m coming in to hear the gossip from the production” Cheryl explains with a giggle, taking a seat in front of Simone’s desk. “Financials are up to date and you sent me the email to invoice channel 34 for the models doing the show. I did that and all is running smoothly.”“The first episode is on tomorrow night. I can’t wait to watch it” Tiffany adds as Simone nods her head nervously. “What did Marie want to talk to Emmett and Lester about?” she asks, changing the subject for Simone to get her mind off the elimination.“She asked t

Simone, Cheryl and Jonathon were sitting in the living room the following night with the television on channel 34. Emmett didn’t want to watch his nemesis so decided to retreat to the bedroom as the program begins to start. “Which one did Emmett say he didn’t like?” Jonathon asks as each set of designers were being introduced and a small conversation was being done with each team.“Alexandro from the UK” Emmett states, coming out of the bedroom. “If you are paired with him when you go in; he isn’t going to be happy, especially when he finds out you are my brother.”“Why?” Jonathon asks, turning in his chair to look at Emmett.“Let’s just say, we got into a few fights at the boarding school we both went to” Emmett responds, giving him a wink before walking back into the bedroom. Jonathon didn’t ask any more questions. He figured the conversation he had with him and Richard about not being like Paul had something to do with the fights he had with Alexandro.“There’s Holly and Quin” Simo

Walking into the bedroom; Simone undresses and puts on a pale pink maternity nightgown before slipping into bed next to Emmett. “Are you going to tell me what really went on between you and Alexandro?” Simone asks, as Emmett turns to face her, putting his arms around Simone’s stomach. “It’s more than just him stealing the stuff you stole in the first place. The last time I saw you jealous like that is when you wanted to beat the shit out of Rick.”Emmett lets out the breath he was holding. He didn’t want to tell Simone what had happened and why Alexandro recognised her. He knew he needed to tell her everything and braced himself on one of his elbows. “He didn’t steal the shoebox because he saw me with Barbie dolls. He stole it because he saw the photos that were inside it” Emmett says as Simone gives him a quizzical glance.“I don’t understand” she says, propping herself up on one of her elbows too. “The photos of us together?”“He made a few remarks about you over the four years I wa

The next day; Simone and Emmett headed to Lively Design Studio to talk with Mark and Karl about taking Karl to the production warehouse the following week. As they walk in the door; Mark greets Simone and Emmett and ushers them to his office so he could speak privately. “Holly and Quin didn’t do too bad for their first week” Mark says to the pair, taking a seat behind his desk.Emmett was a little uncomfortable sitting down in Mark’s office. He wasn’t use to all the clutter from mannequins to rolls of material and folders scattered over a bench behind him. Simone was at ease and could sense his awkwardness. She grabs his hand to help relax his tension. “They did amazingly” Simone answers with a smile. “That’s why we are here. We have a proposition for you; more accurately, one for Karl.”Mark narrows his eyes at Simone. He knows when she comes with a proposition; she is normally asking for the use of his services. She did it with Damian and Renee; ‘why would she need Karl’s services?

The following morning; Emmett left with Jonathon to check on the progress of the apartment building, while Simone and Cheryl were heading to the home and garden centre to do some shopping for their new apartments. “I have Suzie, Cait, Sandy, Beck, Kat, Tiff, Vince and Aunty Leslie meeting us there” Simone says as the pair walk out the door. Katrina, Suzie, Jason, Rebecca, Tiffany and Vince were also purchasing an apartment in the building; Vince and Tiff were taking apartment 82 on the other side of Cheryl, whereas Suzie and Kat were purchasing apartment 76 under Vince and Tiffany’s. Rebecca and Jason are purchasing apartment 17 on the third floor. “Aunty Leslie said she’s running a bit late. The way we are going; the apartments will be filled before we know it” Simone says laughing as she gets into the passenger side of Cheryl’s car.“I have my things in storage; I don’t mind pulling them out” Cheryl complains again, stepping into the driver’s seat.“We’ve been over this. We are goi

Monday morning; Simone and Emmett were up early again, getting ready to head into the production warehouse. Emmett had come out of the shower and was putting on his pants when a knock came on the front door. “He’s early” he chuckles, walking out of his bedroom, whilst zipping up his pants. Even though he didn’t need to go with them, Emmett didn’t want to let Simone anywhere near Alexandro without him and decided to go.“I’ve got it” Jonathon says, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes whilst heading for the door. “May I help you?”“The little Spencer” Karl laughs, walking into the bungalow and sitting down on the chair as Jonathon heads to the bathroom. “I assumed you would have had a grand mansion out here. I thought I had the wrong place for a moment.”“This is a temporary home” Emmett snickers, heading back into the bedroom. “We’ll be ready in a minute.”Karl waited nervously, bouncing his leg up and down when Simone comes out of the room. “You must be excited” she says, putting her wa

Simone and Emmett were dropped off at the office building by Karl before leaving to go tell Mark he should be expecting an email from Marie sometime today. Whilst Emmett decides to go up to the third floor with Simone before heading to his office. “I want to make sure Cheryl got here ok” he says, wrapping his arms around Simone.Since Sylvia had a go at Cheryl over the weekend; he didn’t like leaving her for any amount of time without security. Cheryl thought it was an overkill and shrugged it off when he suggested Jason or Vince could bring her in this morning since Katrina was at the production warehouse. Simone was worried too, but the pair let her drop Jonathon off at school on her own before she came into the office. “I had Vince follow her at a distance. She got here safely” Simone says with a giggle as the elevator stops on the third floor.“You had Vince follow me?” Cheryl yells as the two head into Simone’s office where she was waiting. “I told you I am fine; I need to do thi

It’s been three years since Simone and Emmett were married. The pair had grown together over the time and the family got bigger with a new arrival six months ago; Lauren Josephine Peterson. Thankfully there was no surprises of a second baby during the delivery.“Are you ready for our special evening?” Emmett calls from the living room as Simone walks out in her bodysuit, dressed in an off the shoulder royal blue evening dress with a slit up the right side. “You always look stunning” he adds, giving her a peck on her temple.They were heading to the charity banquet for the local shelter for domestic violence. 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
Our Secret Identities Chapter 219 – The Final
The limousine pulled up out the front of the banquet hall where the fashion parade was being held. Vince steps out and opens the rear door for everyone to climb out of the back. Camera flashes were going off as Drake steps out and extends his hand to Leona with a smile before Lester does the same with Caitlyn. Followed by Jason with Rebecca, Jonathon with Matilda, Richard with Sandy and Vince helping Linda, Tiffany and Cheryl out.Simone straightens her black and green full-length dress as Emmett leans over and kisses the side of her head. “Let’s head in; the others will catch up” Emmett whispers in Simone’s ear.Simone nods, taking Emmett’s hand and beaming a smile as they were stopped for pictures momentarily.“I want to call Aunty Leslie before it starts and make sure the twins are ok” Simone says as the group find a seat to the front of the runway.“I already did” Linda voices behind her, sitting down in her seat. “They’ve been fed and are sleeping peacefully. Jakey is playing wit
Our Secret Identities Chapter 217 – Don’t you Love Bart?
It’s been three weeks since the twins decided to arrive; giving Emmett and Simone a surprise of a lifetime. Simone was let out of the hospital two days later. Stacey wanted to make sure the twins didn’t need any additional medical help. Given Linda was their nanny; she was for happy for her to take them home when she did.Tiffany had reported to Simone every evening what was going on at the agency. In Simone’s opinion it was so she could see the babies. Robert wasn’t the only model to have been offered a contract overseas. Suzie’s contract was renewed to go to Australia for their fashion week the following year and Trent will be joining her. Kimberley was given a contract to go to China, while Lewis will be heading to the Milan fashion week in Italy.The Next Fashion Designer was coming to a close and Lively Design Studio’s made the final with Giovanni Boutiques and Le Boutique. “Leslie and Barry are going to look after Jake and the twins while we head to the fashion show tonight for
Our Secret Identities Chapter 216 – Twins?
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.”
Our Secret Identities Chapter 215 – In Labour
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
Our Secret Identities Chapter 214 – My Waters Just Broke
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
Our Secret Identities Chapter 213 – He is My Brother
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
Our Secret Identities Chapter 212 – Trying to Compete
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
Our Secret Identities Chapter 211 – What do you want?
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
