George's POV

When I got back home from work, I noticed Susan humming happily. She was cooking in the kitchen and seemed so happy.

I slowly went closer to the kitchen until I heard Isabella's tiny voice also coming from the kitchen, "I like my second daddy, mummy."

"You do? That's great. I am glad the visit went well. Do you like the toys he bought you?"

I peered closer and saw Isabella nodding her head. When she sighted me, she pointed her hand at me and said, "Daddy."

Susan turned and saw me standing at the doorway.

"Oh darling, you are here, welcome back. How was your day?"

She left what she was doing and came closer to give me a kiss. I retreated a few steps back, invading her kiss.

"What's wrong?" She asked, confused by my actions.

"Was Patrick's visit the reason why you are humming so happily? You love the fact that he came here?" I said angrily.

"What are you talking about, darling? You knew he was going to come today."

I stared at her and noticed the beautiful dress she was pu

    Susan's POVI curled up on the bed and pulled the duvet tightly around me. How could George behave this way?It was the first time I had witnessed such an intense display of anger from him. He seemed like a completely different person, unrecognizable.The way he had angrily pointed accusatory fingers at me and torn my dress had left me feeling miserable.George had always possessed an impeccable memory. He was quite good at remembering things, especially those related to me. Initially, I found it endearing that he paid such close attention to the details of our life together, but now, it felt unsettling. He wasn't even this meticulous when it came to Isabella."Mommy?" Isabella called out."Yes, sweetie, I am right here," I replied, quickly wiping away my tears.I sat up and saw her making her way toward me. I smiled as she attempted to climb onto the bed, which was a bit too high for her.I helped her up and pulled her close to me. She gazed at me for a moment and then inquired, "Wh

    Patrick's POVArriving at the office, I was filled with a sense of happiness and contentment. The encounter with my daughter yesterday was incredible. It felt amazing to have a daughter, and I couldn't believe she had addressed me as "daddy." It was a feeling unlike any other.I had driven myself to the office, declining the services of the driver my uncle's lawyer assigned to me. I enjoyed the freedom of being behind the wheel rather than sitting in the back, playing the role of the boss. Upon entering the office, Trisha, my secretary, trailed behind me and greeted me."Good morning, sir,""Good morning, Trisha. What's my schedule like today?" I inquired."You have an 8 a.m. meeting with the CEO of Spring homes.

I had declined some offers while my team was still re

    Susan's POVIt was clear that George was not the same as he used to be. He often acted distant and absent-minded. He even canceled the business contract with Patrick's company, resulting in a hefty financial penalty for breaching the contract's agreement.Feeling responsible and guilty for his actions and wanting to cheer him up, I decided to ask him to take a day off work. I pretended to be unwell and in need of his company."Darling, do you mind taking a day off today? I'm really not feeling too well, and I need you," I said, hoping to get his attention.His initial response wasn't promising, "Not today, honey. I have a lot on my plate. I can't afford to miss work now."I sat on the bed and silently counted to three. "One…two…"On the count of three, George surprised me by coming over and sitting beside me."I am sorry I can't spend time with you today. How about I wrap up at work on time and come spend time with you?" He suggested, showing a willingness to make it up to me.My pla

They called themselves directors, but they couldn't come up with a single solution!"Stop!" I told them firmly. "I didn't bring you all here to chat and argue like children! I want answers and results, not excuses!" I yelled."Godfather, we have tried everything, but it all proved abortive. Mr. Gale is the biggest shareholder in the company, and getting him to step down as CEO is tough," Mr. Berkeley explained."Are you saying you can't combine your shares to force him to step down?" I countered.Mr. Smith had always been the one reporting to me crucial matters that had to do with the company, faithfully following my instructions. He acted as my voice within the company. Some of

He promised to talk to her earlier, but he hasn't called yet," Susan replied softly."Are you serious? You want me to let you call another man to calm our daughter down? Are you out of your mind?" I shouted in anger."Daddy! Daddy! I want Daddy!" Isabella cried even louder.Ever since Isabella got to know Patrick, she suddenly developed the bad habit of throwing tantrums whenever she was denied the right to speak with him on the phone.I felt Susan was just spoiling her too much. She was just a kid who should listen to her parents! Which father would condone this sort of nonsense?"This is all your fault! Isn't this what you wanted? I hope you are happy now!"

    Georgina’s POV"G, what are you doing here with George? and why is he calling you Mistress?" Susan asked, bewildered.I chuckled at her confusion, patting George's head and telling him to stand up."Surprised to see me, Susan?" I teased."Can someone explain what's happening here, and why do you have my child?" Susan demanded, her voice rising."Shut up! Don't talk to my Mistress like that!" George snapped, defending me. His loyalty pleased me; he finally saw his wife for what she was, a trash."Wait, are you two lovers? Is that why George calls you Mistress? Have you been cheating on me with her?" Susan speculated.I wrinkled my nose in disgust. "No way! Why would I sleep with my own twin brother?""What? Did I hear you right?" Susan exclaimed, shocked."Yes, that's right. George is my twin brother," I confirmed."But how is that possible? You don't even have the same last name," Susan asked, still puzzled."My name is Georgina Grayson Grey.

You didn't even ask how I was doing, you are just concerned about your daughter," I taunted.Patrick held Susan, trying to calm her.

    Susan's POV How could George do this to me? How could he mess up my life?I felt really mad and angry. George would have to face the consequences. He planned everything so well that I never suspected anything.He must have found out about my divorce with Patrick five years ago and followed me to the small town where I went to heal. He acted like he was meeting me for the first time and slowly became a part of my life.He must be probably feeling pleased with himself wherever he was, thinking he did a great job. But he would surely pay for all the pain he caused me.I wiped away my tears and asked Patrick, “Did you tell the police about this?”“Yes, they're still investigating. But for your safety and Isabella's, it's best if you stay away from him.”I agreed and quickly called the school.“I have to go pick up my daughter from school. George was supposed to get her, but I need to tell the school to stop him. My daughter can't be with that monster for another moment!”I called the sc

I’m not ready to listen to whatever she has to say."I started to leave, but Juliana stopped me, “Please Susan, just listen to what Sebastian and I have to say. You can choose to leave afterwards if you don't believe us.”“Keep your rotting mouth shut! You are the cause of all this nonsense going on! Haven't you done enough trying to ruin my marriage? To what extent are you willing to do to achieve your aim?” I retorted fiercely.Sebastian quickly intervened, "Please, listen to us. Everything is just a misunderstanding.

After securing a lot of bundles of cash, I directed Clark, "Arrange for a flight to Africa immediately. It will be harder for the authorities to track me there. No, scratch that—I'll just use my private jet. And ensure Bernice is safe.""Sorry Godfather, but Madam Bernice's safety has been compromised. She met with Al

Mr. Stephen was almost assassinated last night?"Mr. Stephen, we have no idea what you're talking about. What happened to you?" Mr. Smith asked, feigning ignorance."You want to play dumb, right? Because you and your friends knew I had evidence of your embezzlement in the company, you tried to assassinate me.
