Our Secret Identities Chapter 52 – Do Things Legally
Richard, Lester and Emmett met in Richard’s office the next day. “I don’t want to go back to what I was in high school” Richard says to the two men in front of him. “I understand Dad needs to pay for putting us through the ordeal. I want to do things legally and I know what will hurt him the most.”“What are you proposing?” Lester asks, glancing between the brothers.“He built this company from scratch. No-one could tell him what to do because he knew better” Richard explains, a grin appearing on his face. “Here is a list of clients I remember. I think we need to get in contact with them and tell them about Dad’s little misdeed. Have them seek out what building products were used to what they paid to have.”Lester lets out a laugh; “are you sure you two aren’t the same person?”Emmett grunts at Lester’s question, a grin appearing on his face. “We are brothers” he mentions, rolling his eyes. “I was telling Les; it would be a shame if some of his old clients got wind of it. It will be h

Back at the Lester Drake Media building; Emmett and Lester had head of maintenance, Mario in Lester’s office. Lester had received the police report on what happened. Once the explosives were safely removed; the control panel had a stalling device on it. It was triggered when the elevator opened on the third floor.“All we are asking is why, you weren’t at your post yesterday?” Lester questions. His voice may have been calm; the piercing glare he was giving, made Mario nervous.“Nobody was here in maintenance” Mario states; looking between Emmett and Lester, not wanting to stick around if one of them cracked.“That much we know” Emmett scoffs; shifting his position on the sofa. “We want to know why there was nobody here.”‘For two CEO’s; they really don’t know what happens in their company’ Mario says in his mind. He would never say it out loud; but he often thought it. “Because there was a scheduled maintenance on the private elevator” Mario informs the pair.Lester starts rubbing his

Richard was about to leave for the afternoon, when a knock comes on his office door. “Enter” he calls out, thinking it was his new personal assistant Tyrone giving his schedule for the following day. Richard thought it was best to take a leaf out of Emmett’s book and hire a male assistant that doubled as a bodyguard, curtesy of Jason.When the door opened; Barry walked in. “Afternoon” Barry says, taking a seat in front of Richards’s desk.“What can I help you with?” Richard asks, continuing to pack up his things.“The changes you requested to the National Building and Albert Square Complex were completed. We should be able to proceed with the final stages tomorrow” Barry says, getting up from his seat again; deciding not to do what he originally planned.“They were changes that could have been avoided” Richard states, glancing up from the paperwork he was filing in his desk. ‘I don’t know if I can trust him; now that I think about it. He has worked for Dad, longer than I can remembe

“Yes Mrs Murphy; since I have taken over the business, I had noticed a discrepancy on the books for our current clients. Since I wasn’t allowed to view the bookwork previously, I dug a little deeper. I got the invoices for the building materials we used for your establishment and wanted to double check; you were invoiced correctly” Richard states over the phone as Emmett walks through the front door.“He’s been on the phone since he got home” Simone informs Emmett, who raised an eyebrow at her. “Sandy has a modelling gig out of town; he came back here.”“Mrs Murphy; Your invoice would have been itemised. If you were invoiced incorrectly, Dad will need to rectify his mistake. I will be willing to stand in court; clarifying what I found and how Emmett, Lester and myself went about to ensure the mistake was fixed. We don’t want to have a bad reputation because my father didn’t do the right thing” Richard continues his conversation, nodding his head slightly to say hello to Emmett. “Thank

The next day; Emmett and Richard left for work; while Simone, Vince and Tiffany were meeting with the Plaza Hotel to organise the catering and seating for the reception. “What do you mean; you’ve double booked the reception room?” Tiffany yells at Adam, the Maître d. “We had this booked three weeks ago, when it wasn’t double booked. Do I need to get Mr Spencer or Ms Simmons here for you to explain to them why they don’t have a reception room?”“Sorry Miss” Adam trembles; not wanting to disappoint the high-profile customers of Drake Spencer or Leona Simmons. “I..I wasn’t the person to book the second group. I will call the Rocky Valley Women’s Association and ask them to reschedule.”“You do that” Tiffany spits, turning to walk over to where Simone was seated, saying ‘double booking my ass,’ under her breath.“You’re laying it on a bit thick, aren’t you?” Simone giggles, glancing up from the seating plan she was working on with Vince. “So far, we have seated 465 guests. Did we need to

Emmett shows up at Peterson Properties a little under the half hour as stated. Walking into Richard’s office; “Why do I need to be here?” he asks, taking a seat in front of Richard’s desk. “You are doing Simone’s office space.”“I thought you preferred to be kept informed” Richard explains, picking up his phone and messaging Barry to come back to his office. “I’m informing you.”Shaking his head; Emmett knew there was something else going on; he just didn’t know what. As he was going to question further, Barry walks through the door. Emmett recognises him, but is unable to place where he knew him from. ‘I know him’ Emmett thinks to himself; ‘from where?’“Emms, this is Barry our building foreman” Richard introduces as Emmett offers his hand to shake.“Do I know you from somewhere?” Emmett asks, still trying to figure out how he knew Barry.As Barry was about to answer; Simone walked through the doorway. “We finished early; I came dow…” she begins to say before stopping her sentence; “

Everyone went to bed last night in a happy mood. They caught up on what had been happening over the last 15 years with Barry. Barry was over the moon with Simone’s pregnancy. He asked ‘why did they choose to reveal the pregnancy so soon?’ Simone glared at Emmett; who explained his panic got the better of him when Simone, Richard and Lester were trapped in the elevator.Barry was unaware of what happened and the three of them explained what they had found. Barry wasn’t pleased; people he had work alongside, could do that to them. They left the office; hugging Barry, even Emmett and Richard embraced the man before going home.Simone woke early and was humming to herself as she cooked breakfast; “someone is chirpy this morning” Richard states, coming into the kitchen. He pinches a piece of bacon before leaning on the kitchen counter, laughing at Simone for gently swatting his hand away.“I could say the same to you” Simone says, putting the last of the toast and eggs on the plate before

Waking up the following morning; Simone felt a large arm wrapped around her torso. Turning to face the perpetrator; she sees Emmett sleeping with a grin on his face. “You can stop pretending you are asleep” she states, trying to remove his arm from around her waist.“Nope” Emmett replies; keeping his eyes shut. “You are staying right here.”Needing to use the bathroom; “You can clean up the mess if I can’t go to the toilet” Simone huffs, trying to remove his arm again. Emmett gives her a peck on the cheek before releasing his arms and she quickly races to the bathroom. “What are you doing here?” she calls out to him.Emmett waited for her to come out of the bathroom before he answered. When she did, she stood next to him; tapping her foot. “I couldn’t sleep. I messaged Tiff after I got your message yesterday. She told me where the spare key was and what room you were sleeping in” he explains grabbing her around the waist and pulling her back into bed. “I held out as long as I could” h

Our Secret Identities Epilogue
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
