Hailey
I turned to Alex at Max’s words.
“A confession?” I asked him. He sighed.
“yeah”“What is it?” I asked, and he sighed more.
“Well, you know, you should go and find Summer”“Don’t tell me that you did this purposefully” I said in a really strict tone. “Just don’t”
“There was a reason…” he whispered. “The child wasn’t safe--”“You know what?” I cut him in between and made a disgusting face. “I… I hate you for this. How can you do this to her? Couldn’t you have just told her the truth? I-- you are unbelievable!” I laughed pathetically.
he looked ashamed, but there was nothing that could be done now, no matter how ashamed he was!
“and Max” I turned to him. “I am glad you are back but I really can’t believe it is you”
He wanted to say something, but held it back and nodded. “I understand. Maybe you will believe it soon…”
I nodded. “maybe”I wanted to go out, but I had
Hailey“Shh, tell me what happened?” I asked her, but she couldn’t even stop crying. I hugged her tight.“It is okay, I am here”She stopped after five minutes and sighed. She was still sobbing, but wiped her tears and looked at me. “You know…” she whispered and I raised an eyebrow.“Yeah?”“I… I was…” she sighed. “i need to go to a hospital”I was shocked, but didn’t delay. She was too calm right now, as if she was just hiding something.I nodded and went to the car and asked her to sit down. I decided to drive her to the hospital, while Robert could just follow us in his car.I made sure to drive fast and safely.“What’s wrong?” I asked her, my eyes concentrated on the road.“I… I
SummerI was really glad after hearing the news, but that voice made my heart bitter.I looked up, my hand tightened in a fist.He looked at me with innocent and guilty eyes. Those eyes have always melted me, but now, all I hear when I look at him is, ‘just a prostitute’.I will never forgive him.“Summer…” he whispered. Even my name from his mouth sounded like an abusive word. “How’s the child…?”I couldn’t believe he asked that.I couldn’t believe he had the audacity to ask that after everything.My face tensed up and my fists tightened. So much anger wasn’t good for me, but I couldn't help it.He looked at my fist and then at me, quite scared. “See, Summer…”“If you don’t want me to have a misc
HaileyI was shocked when Robert suddenly called me out to carry her inside. We put her on a bed and the doctors surrounded her for a checkup.We went out and I went to Robert.I gave him a cold look, “What did you do?”He was shocked at my question; but I sighed. He looked here and there and then at me, “What do you mean?”“What did you do to her?”My question was blunt and I knew maybe he would interpret it as an accusation, but I can’t really do anything about that. she was fine and completely happy but when she returned, she was yelling in pain. There has to be something that he did or said.“What do you mean?”I scoffed. “What?”“Are you saying that I” he scoffed. “Did I do something to her?”“I
HaileyI didn’t want to go out so I just sat inside, waiting for… something to happen. I didn’t know how she would react to Alex so I was actually sad.I saw Alex coming out, his face neutral. I went to him.“Hey? What happened?”“The doctor says she should go home. So let’s take her home”“That is fine but didn’t you talk to her?”“I did” he looked at me and sighed. “She didn’t wanna talk to me”“Uh… okay… don’t worry”“Hm”He didn't want to talk about it so I didn’t push him. Anyway, we went to the reception and then fulfilled the formalities. He seems kind of blank the entire time, while hardly paying attention to anything he does.Finally, I went to fetch her. Alex did
RobertI was out. I couldn’t believe that she thought I did something to her.I received a call from Alex.“Hey?”“Hey Robert. Can we meet somewhere?”“Okay. At my house?”“Hm yeah”The call ended and I sighed. Did she tell him that I told something to Summer?Anyway, I reached my house and went inside and waited for Alex. Suddenly Hailey doesn’t wanna be with me. Isn’t that weird?The doorbell rang and I went out. Alex entered.“Hey” I wished him.“Hm… uh, did you tell Summer anything?”So I was right. Somehow he knows it.“Well… I had to…”“You knew it would affect her adversely. That’s why I did it all in the fir
AlexI couldn’t understand the relevance of this question.“Huh?” I repeated, even if I had clearly heard it.“Uh… I just asked, ‘Is he married?’”“Why is that important?”She didn’t reply for a minute, but then stood up. “Nothing. Her wife should be around”I nodded. However, I didn’t believe that this was the reason for her asking that question. But, I couldn’t really put any blame on her.“Okay, thanks” I gave her the money for examining him and she smiled and took it. Something was definitely fishy with her.However, after she left, I just wished Hailey would come. Maybe I should tell her that he isn’t well.I decided to call her.“Hailey?”“Alex, not again!” Sh
Hailey“Well, she is the one with weird thoughts” Alex said and I looked at the woman.She elegantly walked up to us.“Hello” she wished me and then looked at Alex with a smile. “Oh hey! Nice to see you again”I understood that she was the doctor who treated him.“Hey” I finally wished her back. “Nice to meet you”As she turned towards me, her expressions turned a little sour. “You are his wife?”I raised my eyebrow at her rigid tone. “Yes”“Okay”“Any problem?” I asked. I hated the way she was behaving.“Nope” she made a mean look and then turned to Alex again. “Then the patient would need to stay here”He nodded and then asked me to co
Alex“Is he Robert or John?” Max asked and I furrowed my eyebrows. Is that still a confusion? I thought we were pretty clear on this path.“Why do you doubt it?” I asked. He sighed.I went and sat across from him on the couch.“We don’t know anything, that is true. But maybe he is John because Robert didn’t have any type of disease”“yeah, that makes sense” I sighed.“What’s wrong?” he asked me.“Nothing. It is just… I don’t even have Robert now”Max sighed. “It is okay, I am here, brother. Moreover, he is gonna be fine soon. As for your wife, let’s make a plan”I looked at him. “Do you think any plan would work?”“It can,” He smiled. “She loves you
MaxWe made it out and let Cane’s dedicated team members clear the mess up. No one knew that there was someone who looked like Robert: and no one ever will.I was excited to meet Robert and Hailey to tell them the good news, but I couldn’t go there. Even if I was not on the records for the most of my life, I did have a death certificate.I just messaged Hailey. “I killed John. Let Robert know and yeah… when you two get well, let me know. I want you to visit me.”I smiled thinking of how happy they would be.After a few minutes, she replied. “OMG REALLY, MAX!?”“Yes, Mrs. Hailey :)”“Oh God… thank… thank you so much!”“Thank me by visiting me with Robert. Don’t come alone, he would kill me. But come soon.”“Haha, we w
HaileyI was looking at him. I was in the same Ambulance as him because I wasn’t much hurt. He was really hurt and the doctors were hesitant in making the right call: they were confused if they should take him to the hospital first or should perform an operation on the way.The bullets had seemingly pierced deep. I was already in tears. “He’ll be alright, right?” I asked the doctor. He was concentrating on his breathing and looked at the monitor consciously.“he should be.”“W-what do you mean should be! He has to be!”“Please be calm, mam. We are doing the best we can.”I cried and cupped his face. “I love you, Robert. You have to get well and that too soon. Do you understand me!?”I saw his lips curl into a slight smile. I smile widely noticing that. Was I hallucinating or did he really smile?
Robert“Get away from her!” I yelled at him, but he just took more steps towards her. I went towards her but a few more men came and surrounded us. They pointed a gun at Hailey and me.“Stand back, Robert. Now it’s my time.” he reached Hailey.She was crying badly. She was traumatized again. Again. No... This can’t happen. I can’t fail.“I’ll give you everything John, leave her, ” I said to him again but he ignored me. He forced Hailey to look at him.“That day I stopped” He smirked. “Today I want and I will do it in front of your husband.”“John!!” I yelled but he didn’t even pay any heed.“Let’s go inside.”He smirked as he went inside. His men took Hailey inside and they forced me
RobertI kissed Hailey’s forehead slightly as she smiled.“Get up now, it is already afternoon…” I smirked at her and she smiled.“Not yet.”“Okay.” I laid down beside her and sighed. “Let’s sleep again.”“No no!”“Then?” I raised my eyebrows and looked at her. She smirked and pulled me closer and joined our lips. “Let’s talk.”“Talk, huh?” I kissed her back and hovered over her. “Start then.”She blushed and looked at me. “I think that I have recovered. So, I want you to go back to manage your business.”“My business?” I raised my eyebrow and then smiled. “Your memory is still bad. It is not mine, it is yours.”&ld
JohnI was in my new place. My headquarters burnt down more than a month ago and I have still been thinking of what I should do.I have a lot of things to do. Firstly, I have to take back what rightfully belongs to me too. This is nothing else than Robert’s company. I am his twin, why should he get it all? Wasn’t the business dad’s?I ran out of my family when I was young. It was just when I came to know that they were gonna sell one of their children. I couldn’t risk getting sold too, and I was the weaker one: I would have been the first to be sold.When I ran away, I never thought I’d find anyone from my family again, until, after a few years, Robert became such a prominent figure. I met him by accident and we became friends as we reconciled our childhood.But the problem started when I silently started liking Hailey.
SummerI was so happy. I didn’t bother much and called Alex straight away.It had been almost 40 days since I last talked to him. I was so excited to hear his voice: even if it would be filled with sadness or hatred.I know that he treated me badly, but I also know the reason, so I have already forgiven him.“Summer?” His voice was full of shock but still calm.“Alex… Alex the reports came…”“And?”“It is yours… it is yours, Alex!!” I yelled in happiness.He stayed quiet for a moment before sighing, and then chuckling in happiness. “Woah…”“Are you… coming back?”he didn’t reply for a few minutes. I didn’t say anything. maybe he needed some time to think about that.
One Month Later.Robert“Yes!” I chuckled and she laughed too.“Oh my. I never thought about that. It would have been so good!”“Yes. We can go there if you want!” I smiled at her. Her eyes shone in excitement and she got up.“What are we waiting for? Let’s go!”“Okay okay!” I got up too.We were just going through some online articles about how to have fun. She came across one of the parks which had some pretty cool games and roller coaster ride, and she was immediately drawn towards it.When I told her that we had one in LA too, she was overwhelmed. Now, we are going there.“I am so excited!” She repeated as we went out of the ward. I smiled at her. “I am too.”&
Two Weeks LaterRobertI was finally cured. My new doctor was male, so I didn’t face any problems in the last few days. I was so glad that I was free now.As I went out of the hospital, I thought of Hailey. Three days. It has been three days since I last saw her. Of course, I didn’t meet her from that day, but I did see her from out of her ward.The last time I visited her, she was still so scared. Scared of me.I closed my eyes. It hurts to remember that moment, no matter how much time has passed. But now that I can be with her, I have to make her believe that I am not John. And I have to end this John too so that we can finally have a happy life.I am so done with all these turns. I wanna live happily with her now.I called Alex to let him know about it and even if he was reluct
AlexAfter a few days, I was finally gonna meet Matt.It was the next Sunday when Cassie could finally convince him to meet me. Yeah, they are still together. Even though Cassie gave me the entire command to ask her to leave the relationship, I insisted on deciding it after I had met him.So for all that matters, she is still with him.I had told her to invite him to lunch. As the table was settled, the doorbell rang. I went to open the door.Matt was dressed in fine and decent clothes. he looked at me with respect, as though he never threatened me. We had a good chat over the meal and I was kind of convinced that he had changed. Cassie looked happy from the fact that everything went well.In the end, I agreed to them continuing this relationship.--ONE WEEK LATER
