Celine's POV

"Look, Celine, Jace is a titled man, and he will never know that we are different as long as you continue to play along. Do you know how many women are vying for his attention? I couldn't have broken up with him and canceled the marriage, but what's the essence when I have a twin sister who could cover up? Listen, Celine, I allowed you to enjoy Jace's wealth and his pleasure, so why can't you get pregnant by him and have his child? Is that too much to ask for? I already told you that once I am back, I will take the baby, and you can move on with Martin. Besides, I helped Martin to get a job in one of Jace's real estate construction companies, and he will never be poor again. So Dad and Mom will accept him."

"I'm sorry, sister. But I cannot do that. If I find out that I am pregnant, I will take it off and get rid of it. I cannot get pregnant by your man, so you better hurry back home." I quickly ended the call on Clara as she tried calling me again, but I refused to answe

    Celine's POV:I looked at Jace's serious face as he said that his best friend wasn't his friend anymore. "Alright. So what are you going to have for dinner?" I asked, just as he encircled his muscular arms and wrapped me in a hug."You," Jace kissed my forehead and I wanted to get away from him, knowing what he desired."No. I mean, real food not to eat me up," I gulped hard and he pecked my nose and wrapped his right arm around my shoulder as he escorted me to the couch."I know, babe. I want us to enjoy our honeymoon. Because once I resume with my office work and visiting the community, I wouldn't have the time to have as much fun with you as I have now," Jace spoke to me softly as he sat on the couch first and placed me to sit on his thighs.I looked into his desirous eyes that were filled with love, and I wished I was really my twin and not his fake wife. But who is to be blamed?"Alright. I am all yours, but you have to fill your stomach too," I caressed his rigid stomach that w

    Celine's POV:"Madam, is everything alright?" Tina asked, looking at me worriedly, as she was the first person to notice my discomfort."Yes, everything is fine. I will be back as my older brother had arrived to see us. Quickly set up the dinner and serve it at the dining table once it's ready. I have to go and welcome him," I told Tina and Esther, and hurriedly darted out of the kitchen through the kitchen back door.As I followed through the back door and ran out to the garage to welcome my older brother, Luca, he had gotten out of his car and was locking the door."Hi, Luca. Welcome," I greeted him nervously as he locked up his car door, dressed in a black suit.Luca turned to face me and replied, "Hey, Celine. What's up?"My brows furrowed at him, and I immediately corrected him, "I'm not Celine. Did you come here to act like this?"Luca laughed, seeing my grim expression, because Jace would get mad at all of us if he found out the truth that I was not his real wife.I wasn't read

    Jace's POVI knew Celine was pretending to be Clara, but I couldn't blame her. Clara was very manipulative, and she had a way of forcing anyone to do her bidding.I sighed and finished up the delicious yam and fish sauce again, as the meal was so delicious. While I didn't want to admit to Celine that I knew she was fake, it was because she would leave as soon as I found out the truth, and I would be the one to lose. So what's wrong with playing along with her?We finished all the meals in the pot on the dining table, and Luca smiled and picked up a napkin to wipe his lips."I will be leaving for home now, Clara. Mom and Dad send their regards to you," he said once he rose from the chair to leave the house."Okay, big brother. Take care," Celine said, and Luca looked at me and forced a smile."I will be taking my leave now, Mr. Augustus. Take care of my sister," Luca said, and I wrapped my arm around Celine's tense shoulder as she was done with her meal."I will gladly do that. Thank y

    Jace's POV As I pulled my study door to unlock, I was surprised to see Celine standing there and grinning."How did she get to know my password?" I wondered, but didn't ask her."What are you doing here, baby?" I asked, seeing her smiling face."I came to see you and to ask if we are still going for the swimming?" Celine inquired nervously, and I sighed."Oops. I forgot. Let's go," I walked out of my study and shut the door behind me.Celine grinned, turning to look at me, and asked, "Is everything alright, babe?""Yes, I am fine. Come on, let's go," I hugged Celine by her waist and escorted her into the elevator.As we rode down to the last floor, Celine and I got out, and we entered the living room together."Have you gotten a swimsuit?" I asked first."Um, no, I forgot. How's yours?" Celine looked at me, the way Clara normally behaves excitedly.I smiled, telling her, "I will just strip and be left in my shorts. How about that?"Celine laughed and agreed, "Alright. I will go back

I didn't mean to cause you any trouble," Mandy said, as she looked sad, and I tried to be nicer to her."It's alright. Just that Clara's twin sister traveled to represent her abroad on a contest and faked it that she was truly Clara. If her fans see that her twin sister is swimming with me, they might misinterpret it and drag us online," I explained to Mandy, and her eyes lit up.Just as I stood in front of her, drying my wet body."Really?" Mandy asked, looking at me in shock. "You mean Clara is a twin?" She looked curious, just like Edwin, and I brushed it off."Yeah. But surprisingly, I haven't met her twin, that's why she didn't attend the wedding. If not, you could have gotten to meet her," I told Mandy, and she appeared thoughtful. Just as I walked away from her and went to pick up my trousers to wear them.As I didn't want to walk around the whol

So it's best that I cook at home for him, so that I can take good care of him," I replied, seeing Mandy's face drop."Isn't that right, babe?" I asked Jace, as I stood next to him beside the dining table."You're right," Jace responded with a smile, and I told them, "Excuse me, I will get the food ready now."I walked away to the kitchen and served Mandy's meal. It was a plate of the delicious yam and fish sauce that I had made.Though I didn't like Mandy, I tried not to worry about her. As I stepped out of the kitchen and served the delicious meal in her presence.I could see the way Mandy looked at Jace with love in her eyes. He called her his best friend, and I didn't want to act like I was affected. There was no way I would be affected by my twin sister's husband, even though I am the one who is now married to him."Thank you, Celine," Mandy muttered as I stepped aside beside

I continued scrolling through the news until I saw that it was captioned from what Clara had told them on her last interview on a red carpet runway show.I sighed with relief, and I could have freaked out if it were someone else with evidence. Trying not to bother myself about the news, I laid peacefully on the bed in my room and fell asleep.Later, I was awoken by the doorbell sound. Getting out of the bed, I wore my slippers, then I marched to the door and pulled it open.Jace stood there, looking at me with his desirous gaze. The night had fallen, and I made way for him to enter the room."Are you sleeping before? I hope I hadn't disturbed your peaceful sleep?" Jace asked me with a smile, but I shook my head and replied, "No, I was about to wake up, I guess. How about your best friend? Has she gone home?"Jace took a closer step to meet me. He held me by my shoulder and said, "Yeah, Mandy has. She said that she enjoyed the meal and will

I had some business that I control in the city aside from my job as a politician.My staff greeted me on arrival before I made my way into the elevator.When I arrived at the top floor where my office was, I went inside and had a seat. Some partners came to see me and congratulated me on my marriage. I shut the interviews as I was not ready to grant any interview with the media related to my wife and my marriage.As I got busy, I decided to contact Roy to know what was going on with Celine and her bakery shop.My office featured a touchscreen television on the wall, for me to watch and listen to any trending news. And the entertainment news about my wife caught my attention because the television was on.

    Celine's POVI sat nervously at the rear of the car, watching Roy drive me down to my bakery. He didn't even need to ask me for directions as he drove the car to my bakery shop and parked."Have you been to this area before?" I asked him, my voice filled with anxiousness, and he smiled."Yeah. I have been to your shop once before. But you didn't know me," he replied, his voice filled with happiness, but I frowned."My shop? No, I guess it was Celine you met," I replied, feeling my heart beat skyrocket. But I placed a hand over my chest to remind myself that Jace mustn't find out.I had never seen Roy before. Or maybe I had, but I couldn't seem to remember it."Yeah. I just came to buy some donuts and some cookies when I escorted you for your wedding shopping. I just thought you must have forgotten, but I was here with you," Roy said, his tone collective, and I smiled."Alright. I get forgetful, but this is my twin sister's shop, not mine. I will call you when I close for the day, as I

    Jace's POVI knew that Celine was faking it and that it was her sister's bakery shop. As she looked stunned to hear me say that it was her shop, meaning she was the owner.Celine and Clara might have looked alike, so you can hardly tell their differences, but they had different behaviors, which was easy for me to detect on the first day.They don't have the same spirit, even when their zodiac signs and skin color are the same.Celine was more free-spirited around me than Clara was. I felt suspicious of what Clara was up to when she was with me.I cannot say for sure if Clara truly loves me, but I knew that she loves my money and my dick, which was why, she traded her twin sister to be with me.I could have opened my heart to love Celine, but she was playing her part well, pretending to me that she was Clara. My only concern now, was that I need a child to take over my business, and to become my heir. So, since Celine was available to perform all the wife duties with me that Clara was

    Celine's Point Of View;"Celine, what has come over you? You actually blocked me for almost a week and you turned off your phone too?" Clara yelled over the phone call, and I sighed."I needed some time to think. Was that not what I told you, that I have to think through your new request," I told her, and she calmed down."That's fine. But you shouldn't have blocked me. How do I reach out to you to know what you are up to?" Clara asked, and I sighed."I will update you about anything important. As for now, there's nothing important to know about, except that some journalists are lurking around my bakery and requesting interviews from me. And I need to grant them the interview. I will tell them that I am Celine and I am just helping you out, like we have discussed, and nothing will affect your career or winning the award," I told Clara, and she sighed with relief."Thanks, sis. But you should unblock me. It ruined my mood the previous week, seeing that you had blocked me. I was unable

    Celine's Point Of View;A week later, it was a bright Monday morning. I still cannot believe that I am living with my twin sister's supposed husband, Jace Augustus.I woke up in the bed this morning in my room, which was supposed to be Clara's room if she were to be around. But you know, Clara had traveled and she was not making any attempt to return back.I had blocked her calls too, and was looking forward to the date that she will be back. The awards ceremony was to happen in the month of May, so hopefully, Clara will be back.I slept alone in this room and I recalled that I have to go to my shop, which I told Jace was my twin sister's shop.Jace also said that he was resuming his political work and he will need me to attend some event with him before I can be free to visit my shop, but Ava has been understanding and she doesn't like to poke her nose into my affairs unless I tell her. She let me know when she needed money to support her family and she doesn't steal from my shop or
