Returning with the CEO'S Twins For Revenge Day out with the twin's
The smile on Aspen's face was big as he drove into the parking lot of Dulce's apartment building, his joy knowing no bounds. He was here to pick up his kids to spend the day with him after weeks of only speaking to them over the phone, and he missed them terribly. When he got to the parking lot, he took a deep breath and sent a text to Dulce. Aspen: Hi, I'm here to get the kids. It took some minutes before she replied. Dulce: Oh, hi, Aspen. I had to rush to work early. You can go up and get them. Becker is still in. Aspen's smile faltered as he read the text, but he sent her a reply. Aspen: Okay, thank you. He had hoped to catch a glimpse of Dulce today, even if it was only briefly. Though he was disappointed that he would not be seeing her, he understood that she had to leave for work. Who he was less than enthusiastic to see was James Becker, the other man in Dulce's life. His rival, competitor, and a man who had no issues doing whatever it took to keep Dulce. He

Dulce's phone vibrated with a message as she got off work. Her heart got pierced when she saw it was from Aspen. He had texted earlier, so polite about going over to pick up the kids, and all day she had been worried about what would have happened if he and Becker had met. But Dulce had been too shy to ask him and didn't want to piss off Becker by asking him either, so she had just spent the entire day stewing. "Hey. Not that I don't want to keep the kids with me until evening, but my parents are coming over, and I don't want them to see the kids just yet. I've not told them anything yet. I don't want to scare the little ones. Can you come to pick them up?” Heaving a sigh of relief that it hadn't been what she had been imagining, she waved goodbye to her colleagues and hurried over to his house. "Mummy!” The twins squealed when Dulce entered the mansion and found them playing with toys beside the pool. Running to hug her. On recalling their mom's words about running, they

Aspen bagged in to Dulce office and without letting her speak, he grabbed her fist and warmed her not to bring in any representative again; hence it concerns their company issues.His chicks are burning red, immediately he released her and made his way towards the door. Dulce leaned against the wall, frozen. The door to her office slide shut as he made his way out, leaving her hot and bothered. Her hand reached for her shirt subconsciously, and she tightened her fingers around the button. Her legs felt shaky and her face burned. Her neck, even worse from where he had pressed his nose against it. This was bad. Very bad. She could feel the heat from between her legs and nearly cursed out loud. He was doing this intentionally. He was baiting her out. Her disgust blended with the burning desire clawing at her throat, and she dropped to her chair, closing her eyes tightly. "Aspen McKinney, you bastard.” She muttered, tightening her grip on the arm of her chair. Her hair fell out fr

Dulce's coffee slipped from her fingers, leaving a dump of brown liquid and ice blocks on the variety beneath her. Her hand shook, and her eyes fixed on the news playing out on the television screen. The voice of the newscasters debating her life and identity in the name of “The mysterious lover of Millionaire Playboy, Aspen McKinney, was hiding for probably more than five years" faded out as anger and pain passed interchangeably in her head. “Fiona.” She called, angrily shoving her files into a folder and pushing it into her drawers. A loud bang followed as her table rattled, successfully shutting the drawer. “I need to leave early today. Can you please help me clean up and lock the door? I'll bring in the spare key tomorrow, so don't worry about coming early enough to open the door for me.” She yanked her jacket off her chair, nearly ripping it, and stormed out of the office. Even before her assistant could reply, the sound of her heels ricocheted off the wall. "Um,” her assi

Aspen held the door open in shock. Only moments ago had he read the headline involving both of them. Luckily, it was dressed as a scandal. You could tell whoever was behind it wanted him to take all the blame. The sensitivity of the issue was too complex for most people to understand so Aspen refused to reply to any of the comments from people online or the reporters who were begging for a one-on-one interview.He knew giving them what they wanted was falling into their trap and he would not do that. But here stood the lady who was behind it all. Her brown eyes and matching hair were standout. She looked like no one else. He stood there still as a statue on fifth avenue. She stared back at him waving her fingers and palm in slow gestures. “Aren’t you going to let me in?” Asked Dulce as she stood by the door. “Yeah sure, come in please,” “Thanks.” Even though she seemed to maintain a calm demeanor it was all a charade. Dulce could feel her heart racing inside her.
Returning with the CEO'S Twins For Revenge Pros and Cons
Derek sat there in awe of the words that had escaped Aspen's lips. He knew his friend to be opportunistic but he didn’t think he was this extreme. He had made his intentions clear and now, it was left to Dulce to decide whether she agreed to the terms or not. Dulce, just like Derek, was in a state of disbelief. She didn't know how she was supposed to feel. She should’ve felt offended but instead, she was flattered. Had he liked her so much that he’d do anything to have her? He was on the verge of having his name and company ruined but this was what he decided to do. She could see the logic behind it. If they were married, they could deny all rumors of indecent behavior, plus the kids they had together helped sell the story better. But was she ready to be married? Was she ready to let go of her name and all that she had built? Was Aspen worth it? She was skeptical but still, she didn’t rule out the thought of being married to him. After all, he wasn’t a bad man. He was nice a

The next day, Dulce still looked nothing close to her glorious self. The once magnificent and glowing queen had become a total shadow of herself. If it were an easy decision, she would just sit back home and be with her children. But no. Staying back, though would give her children comfort, and would completely take the remaining strand of sanity from her. Stealing a last glance at the little angels who were still asleep, she heaved a heavy sigh and exited the room. Since she slept in the children's room, she had no idea Becker didn't sleep at home the previous night. The attachment Aspen had sent to her was left untouched. Nothing was in it if not more reasons to despise Becker. She didn't want that. All she wanted was to wake up from the nightmare. Becker helped her a lot. In fact, through the darkest moments of her life, Becker was her strength. Aspen wasn't there. It just didn't feel right that it had gotten to this. Many moments later, she was seated in her office.
Returning with the CEO'S Twins For Revenge Sad truth
Aspen’s threat rang in her head and just as the security men were about to throw him out, she held up a hand. “Let Mr. McKinney go. Take only Becker instead. I'm sorry it has to be this way, Beck.” The latter who was drunk refused to be taken away without a fight. He fought off the men for as long as he could, scattering furniture and papers around. “You can’t do this to me, Dulce, after everything I did for you. Do you want to pay back like this? I will never let you belong to another!” At least, the security men succeeded in pushing him out the door. Dulce could still hear him struggling and exchanging obscene words with them. It was true that she was not treating him fairly but she had to finish up things with Aspen first. She could always beg for his forgiveness later when the mess about her secret was cleared up. The other occupant of her office and father of her children stood afar off, brushing dust off his suit and putting himself together. Aspen had not meant to thre

A month had gone by and everything was finally settling in. Dulce had moved into a new apartment with the kids and their nanny, Cynthia. Her former apartment brought her nightmares."Zig! Olletta! where are you guys?" she yelled. She was trying to get ready for her first date with Aspen and also prepare the kids for a weekend with their grandfather."Over here," Zigfrid called out from somewhere near the stairs, sounding tired. "We can't find Olletta. Have you seen her?""Hang on," Dulce said as she ran upstairs. She opened her bedroom door and immediately saw a pile of clothes on the floor."Mom! Where have you been?! You gotta pick us up in fifteen minutes!" Olletta cried.Dulce sighed. "Look, kiddos, we can't go to the mall today, because of our schedule.""But, it's summer!" Olletta whined."I know. But your grandfather is coming in to pick you and your brother up. Mummy wants an alone time with your dad," Dulce said, trying to convince Olleta. Olletta frowned slightly. "That sou

Eventually, she managed to calm down. Once she did, she pulled away from him. Her tears were still streaming down her cheeks."I'm so sorry for running away, papa," Dulce muttered.He smiled sadly. "It's okay. But, you know you had a choice in all of this. It's not your responsibility to be in this. You don't have to apologize for that," he reassured."I know. I just...," She trailed off."What is it sweetheart?""I mean, I didn't tell you the real reason I left. I just disappeared and I always felt bad about it. Even when I came back, I didn't come to see you.""Why?" he questioned.Dulce hesitated at first before answering her father. " I was afraid."He arched his brow. " Afraid of what?""I was afraid you'd hate me."Aspen, Derek, Cynthia and Mrs Cassy McKinney filed out of the room immediately they saw Dulce and Theodore having a father and daughter moment. They didn't want to interrupt.Once they were gone, Mr. Theodore Florencia approached his daughter once again. He gently car

"Yes ma'am," Cynthia said, her head slightly bowed."Why do you..." she wheezed a little. Cynthia reached out for the water and gave it to her. "Thanks. Now, why do you look like you were used as a punching bag?" She chuckled weakly.Cynthia sighed. "That isn't important right now. We'll talk about it when you're better," she said."Yeah," she replied slowly before coughing. She cleared her throat and swallowed hard. The doctor came closer to check her pulse."Everything looks fine to me. She's awake now and she seems alert enough to understand us. So I'd say it's safe to say she's going to be completely okay," the doctor confirmed. "We should get her discharged in a few days, but I want you to bring her back next week. She needs rest."Derek nodded. "Okay, doc."Dulce stiffened at the sound of a familiar voice. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Derek and Aspen together and another stranger with them."Uhhh..." she slurred her words."Derek, why... are you here... wit

Theodore was shocked at the turn of events. He couldn't believe that he supported Becker. The very man who was behind his daughter's predicament. He couldn't believe that he almost fell for his bullshit.The thought of strangling Becker crossed his mind. He wrapped his hands in a fist as he paced up and down the court's hallways."Fuck!" he said, muttering under his breath. He was so angry and disappointed that he could hardly see straight. After a few minutes, he calmed down and took in a few deep breaths, attempting to calm himself down from his rage. He didn't want the others to know how agitated he was by the situation. No doubt they'd pity him, and that made him even angrier. "Fuck," he repeated, this time quietly. He ran his hand through his hair in an attempt to clear it out of his eyes.``Damnit, damnit, dammit...I shouldn't have been so easily swayed." The last thing he wanted was to make it seem like he had fallen for Becker's lies.Theodore tried to focus on calming himself

The defence calls Ms Cynthia, the nanny to Ms. Dulce Florencia's children, to the stand," the defense attorney said, beaming with pride.Everyone began muttering among themselves and the courtroom buzzed with excitement and speculation about whom it might be. Cynthia tried her best not to gulp nervously but judging by the glances people were sending her way, she failed miserably.As soon as she reached the stand, a familiar voice erupted from the spectators section. "How dare you show up here without telling anyone?!" The voice belonged to a female reporter. "Are you aware that you are a witness to a crime! I bet you're here for the money!" she screamed angrily."Excuse me?" Cynthia snapped. "What do you mean by that? Did this reporter just assume that I was here because of some money? Do you think this is funny?!" Cynthia yelled furiously.Everyone hushed and fell silent. People stared wide eyed at Cynthia, waiting to see how she was going to react. Cynthia stood there, breathing hea

At the crack of dawn, Cynthia had struggled her way out of bed. She ruffled her hair a bit so she wouldn't be recognized before stepping out of her ward sneakily.As she passed the corner of her ward's hallway, a smooth feminine voice stopped her. Her heart sank to the pit of her stomach."Hey! Checked the patient in Room 3?" the voice asked. Cynthia turned and a nurse stood before her."Uh..." She stuttered."Oh, my bad. I assumed you were a nurse," the nurse said.She smiled kindly at Cynthia before gesturing for her to keep going. Cynthia continued on her way. After a brief moment of hesitation, she slipped into the hall towards her destination.She didn't want to be caught unawares and. so she put up a straight face and walked briskly out of the hospital, avoiding conversations of any kind until she got to the road.She glanced around her and relaxed.

Ms Linda, I wish I could reveal everything to you but I can't. I'm grateful for what you and your daughter have done for me," Cynthia said, wishing they wouldn't ask her more questions.She didn't know the answer to any of them and she wasn't sure she wanted to. All it did was make her want to disappear even more than she already did. "But, I still have things I need to deal with and I need your help.''The girl's mother nodded, accepting her words at face value."What is it? Name it," Linda encouraged her to speak freely."Well...I don't really know how to explain this..."she trailed off not knowing where to start. "But I need to make a call and I was wondering if you could lend me your phone for a few minutes."Cynthia wasn't sure if they'd agree to her request but she needed to ask anyway. Her life would be in danger if anyone ever knew that she was alive."Oh, Cynthia, of course we'll let you borrow our phones to make a call. How about five minutes? You know you just got up and you

"Oh my goodness!" a young girl of nine years old gasps in shock."What is it again, Maya? See something amusing again?" the middle aged lady questions."Mum, look!" she says and points in the direction of Cynthia. Cynthia was walking haphazardly along the road, clinging on to dear life and praying that a miracle happens. "The poor lady looks like she could use some help.""That's because we're not helping." the girl's mother says, as she drives the car closer towards Cynthia, who was trying hard but failing to hold herself up. "We can't just abandon the lady like that . She looks so helpless," Maya reacts sadly."Yes, yes you can," her mother, Ms Linda warns sternly." I can't believe you right now, mum!" the little girl says sadly before folding her arms. together and looking at her side of the window, not wanting to see her mother drive past the wounded lady without helping.Ms Linda scoffs.

Returning with the CEO'S Twins For Revenge Cynthia Dilemma
"Get up you slut!" one of the thugs said.It had been days since Cynthia was constantly tortured and her body showed proof. The marks on her body were enough to leave scars. A lot of bruises and cuts had formed over time. Her clothes were torn, dirty, and her hair messy. She was just lying there on the floor with no energy at all. One of the thugs kicked her face. "Get up or we're gonna fuck it up!" Another thug said angrily. He didn't mean it seriously though; he was just angry because she wasn't moving. Cynthia looked around trying to gather herself as much as possible but she couldn't muster up any strength. She was still too weak, too exhausted even. There weren't any other options though, so she stayed limp. The thugs grabbed her arms harshly and pulled her up.They threw her across the room. They kicked her once before hitting her in the stomach. Cynthia groaned from pain and tried to curl into a fetal position. She wanted to die right then and there. But if she died then the
