CHAPTER 64“Let me answer that,” A voice came from behind me and I was stunned when I saw Casper pointing a gun at us.How did he even get past all the guards we had outside?Chris’ eyes tightened and he clenched his fist, his eyes fixated on Casper but I could see the worry in them.Casper grabbed me from behind and I screamed. His arm went around my throat as he pointed the gun to my head and I could feel my heart race. My breath easily became labored and my body shook.“How did you get in here?” Chris bellowed, his bad legs meant he couldn’t move but I could feel he was trying.Ben’s eyes slowly darted between Casper and Chris but there was a mischievous look in his eyes that I couldn’t quite place until he spoke.“Oh, Relax Chris. Casper is only here to do what we should have done a long time ago,” He smirked and walked up to me.It turned out I was right all along. No wonder Casper got access to the house. Everything that happened yesterday and earlier was a farce. I wonder if Ch

CHAPTER 65NICOLE“Chris…..I,” George tried to speak as his mouth shook but Chris cut him off.He looked at George like a Tiger observing his prey. “I don’t want to hear it,” Chris took out a document and handed it over to George. “Here, I took the liberty of preparing the documents and you should be lucky that I am buying this from you at the actual price. My original plan was to leak the video and when your shares started dropping, I’d buy as many as I cared to but I’m doing this for your wife and my nephews.”I could tell George was more confused as to why Chris was buying his shares rather than why he had a video of him being intimate with Claire.George looked at me and I frowned. The man was a good man when we partnered. He helped my company but he let that witch dig her claws into him so deep that he even started stealing from the same company he was a majority shareholder in.I brought out the documents of the fake transactions he and Claire used to steal the money and handed

NICOLEPutting the last of my signatures to the documents, I hand them to the love of my life, my knight in shining armor, my husband of 4 years, Mason Reyes.“Baby are you sure about this?” he asks me as his eyes slowly scan the documents“I’m one hundred percent certain, everything I have is yours my love” I reply I had just signed over all my assets and shares in my company to Mason, I want to become a full time housewife and try to give us a child.We’ve been trying for four years now and the doctors say nothing is wrong with either of us so it must be because I work too much and my hormones are imbalanced.“Baby this will look like I am taking advantage of you, I don’t want it, giving me your shares is one thing but signing over your assets is another” he says, concern lacing his voice and his expression changing to a gloomy one“Honey, I am nothing without you, everything I have and have been able to achieve is as a result of your unconditional love, it’s hard to find a good ma

CHRIS I’ve had this argument with Antonio a dozen times but this old man just won’t budge, I don’t know how someone can be so loyal to the dead“Look I’ve told you Chris, but you’re too stubborn and always want your way, the will clearly says that when you turn 30, you must be married for a minimum of two years before you can get the money” Antonio says looking at me smugly “So I should just go out there, pick a random chick and marry her?” I retorted standing up irritated “How you handle your business is not my concern, I’m a lawyer Chris, not a match maker” Antonio says and shrugs“Cmon Barrister Antonio, take the one percent I’m offering and let’s call this a deal” I say in a more serious tone“Young man, even if you give me fifty percent of your money, I’m doing what your father instructed” he replies“But I haven’t found any one worthy of my love, these ladies all want me for my money”“Then let them have it, this isn’t really a big deal, get someone you think fits the profile

NICOLELater that night, I’m sitting with Claire and Mason in my room going over the documents we have to submit to Rico foods tomorrow to finalize our dealWe had beaten Chris’s Strong Haven to secure the Eight hundred million pound deal with Rico foods.The look on his face when we were declared winners gave me nothing but pleasure, he’s been coming out on top against us recently so it felt real good to win this time around“Shit! Guys I have to quickly run out, I promised the CEO of Rico foods that we’ll be having dinner tonight” I say as I grab my car keys“Babe, do you really have to go?” Mason says giving me puppy eyes and rubbing my hands “Yes baby, just for courtesy’s sake” I smile and kiss him“Tell the old man to keep his hands to himself though” he says and we both laughClaire starts to pack the documents in her bag motioning to leave with me“What are you doing?” I ask visibly irritated “You’re leaving, we’ll finish this tomorrow then, just drop me off at home” she says

Imagine my shock when I woke up in a tiny apartment the next morning. The strong smell of sweat, the filth of clothes loitered everywhere, the hard mattress I was lying on, the noise coming from neighbors could only mean one thing, I wasn’t in my mansion but where was I and what was I doing here?I struggled to my feet and head for what looked like a bathroom and the shock of seeing someone else in the mirror made me scream, I didn't sound or look like myself at all. Was I going mad? Was this some nightmare?I ran back to the room to look for my phone to call Mason, I didn't find it but I saw a book that read Bella's journal on the bed, I toss it aside and kept looking for a phone.I found the remote instead and turned on the television, it was on the news channel.The weather reports were coming in when all of a sudden I see breaking news flash across the screen with a picture of myselfI was shocked to see it but even more shocked as I heard the reporter say"Popular business magna

NICOLE I got to the Strong Haven office a few minutes late. One of the challenges of my new reality is public transportation and it took a while for me to find my way here.“Hi, Good morning, I’m Nicole, sorry Bella, Bella Lawrence, I’m here for an interview” I say to the front desk receptionist“What interview?” She asks smugly, looking at me like I’m a piece of filth that needs to get out of her face.“The interview for the post of Junior secretary” I say trying my best to hold the fake smile on my lips“Ohh, go sit over there, you’re late, you’re lucky the boss isn’t in yet” pointing towards the waiting lounge There’s some other ladies waiting there too, I guess they’re here for the same interview As soon as I take a seat, Chris walks in, he’s even taller than I remember, he’s a rather handsome man and his full beards suit him well, I’ve never looked at his face for more than a second beforeHe has a picturesque smile on his face as he waves good morning to his employeesThe int

CHAPTER 63NICOLEMy back was against the chest of the person who pulled me away from the door, but when the person spoke, I instantly recognized the voice. “Listen closely,” Ben whispered, releasing the pressure of his hands over my mouth.I could hear Charlotte’s saying, “I’m tired of this, I’m done.”“You’re tired when I say you are. You need to find a way to make things up with him. How else are we supposed to know what the heck is going on?” The other voice came, I recognized that voice, it was Casper’s. I recognize the voice from the other day at the spa.Ben looked disappointed as we shared a look, it turned out my suspicions were not exactly wrong. He was sharing everything with his girlfriend who was the mole that was in turn feeding Casper.I quick brought out my phone and texted my driver to come with the bodyguard. Ben had already informed the police.Then we started to hear Charlotte scream, we heard a loud bang and then complete silence rented the air.Next thing the d

CHAPTER 62NICOLEInside the executive conference room of the Strong Haven building, Chris gave a reassuring speech that was broadcast live from the building.Reassuring customers and investors alike, taking responsibility for the sudden downturn of events at the company, and promising a better tomorrow.In his own words to them, “You trusted me when my father gave me the reins of this great company. You put your faith in that young man all those years ago and I did not let you down. I only ask that you do the same now in such a time. As many of you may now know, our company suffered a data leak and the same people responsible for it also came after my life. It is said that in times of adversity, a man’s true friends will be revealed..”“I and this company are merely going through such a time, one that I know will be over soon. When this is all said and done, the ones who stood by us, our friends, will be revealed, and God helping us, we will make sure that they are duly rewarded. An

CHAPTER 61CHRISI couldn’t sleep all night. Everything Bella said made no sense and yet it explained so much.As I turned the possibilities over and over again in my mind, it began to make even more sense.Her behavior at the funeral, the altercation at the jewelry shop, her uneasiness at the award night, where Mason proposed to Claire, the iCloud name on her phone, and everything that happened afterward.Do I want to believe this? Can someone be reborn? I know I’ve heard and seen a lot of mysterious things but this one tops the chart.Bella had no reason to frame Mason and Claire for Nicole’s murder, so why would she cook up such a story? If the woman lying beside me was truly Nicole, everything she said made sense. Does this mean Nicole has been my wife all this time?No wonder she knew so much about my line of business, no wonder she could lead a team to secure a contract worth billions despite being a fresh graduate.Her story ticks so many boxes but it’s some supernatural shit

CHAPTER 60NICOLEWait a minute. How does Chris know I was doing something with Chester? Does that mean Chester didn’t keep to his word? But from the way Chris sounded, he didn’t know exactly what it was we were doing, so maybe he just had an inkling.I have to be honest with him, but how honest? Do I tell him everything? Do I tell him the real truth? Do I tell him that I am Nicole? Reborn in the body of a sister I only recently found out that I had? Would he believe me? What valid reason could I give? I have to really think about this. I have to find a smart way to do this. Not tonight.“Baby, it’s already late, remember the doctor said you need to get maximum rest. I’ll tell you everything in the morning.” I finally replied.I better have a good explanation when I wake up, that’s if he lets me off the hook tonight.“Bella, when Chester told me you had him on a job out of respect for me, I told him to keep it strictly between the two of you because I wanted to respect your choices a

CHAPTER 59NICOLEThe day finally came for my husband to go home. He could sit in a wheelchair now but would still be under constant watch. He started occasionally getting seizures recently but the doctor assured us it was nothing fatal.The board was still on him to name someone as the New CEO while he was recuperating. A new face for the company as the shares were still plummeting hard.The media wasn’t helping either with various speculations flying up and down the internet. Competitors were taking advantage of the turbulence and luring away customers.It was slowly becoming a very difficult situation for Chris to handle. Casper was still out there somewhere, probably smiling at everything happening and the mole was still unknown.“Thank you, doctor. I’ll take good care of him.” I said to the doctor as I wheeled Chris out of the hospital room.We planned to move very early in the morning to avoid the press and it worked. There was minimal presence outside.We got home and settled i

CHAPTER 58NICOLEWow, this is not going as I planned at all. I didn’t think Brenda would get suspicious and invite Claire.If anyone knew my sister, it definitely would be Claire, and considering our history since I took Bella’s body, this was going to be a crazy meeting.Brenda got up and briefly hugged Claire before the two took their seats.“Hi, Claire.” I greeted, forcing a smile.“Hey! Bella, do you know Brenda too? Small world. I heard about your husband. I’m so sorry.” Claire said in her usual cheerful manner.Typical Claire, cheerful for no reason with the heart of a beast.“I just met her yesterday, she says she’s Nicole’s sister,” Brenda replied to her before I could say anything.“Sister?” Claire asked, looking at me bewildered before she burst into uncontrollable laughter.There was no way in hell she was going to believe it but this is a good time to show Brenda what kind of a snake Claire is and to call her out.“C'mon Bella, be serious.
