Chapter 28

CADEN

"Welcome sir." The Rons family maids all lined up and bowed to greet me.

I just nodded my head and dismissed them. I could not stop thinking about the guy I met outside. Lauren seem to know him and it made me worried.

From what I was told, there was no man in Lauren's life.

But with the way they both stared at each other, I could tell something was going on;like they knew each other.

It was five minutes already but it felt like forever and Lauren was not back.

I stood up from the couch and slowly walked outside but I could not find her. I heard some voices and I decided to follow it, I eventually found myself behind the gate.

And I happened to overhear their conversations.

"Anyway, Leslie is not home. You can leave now." Lauren told him.

"But I still can't believe you are not Leslie. Are you sure you are married and not lying just to send me away?" The guy asked with a smirk and moved closer to Lauren. I fisted my hand in a ball but I did not move from where I was.

You are one of our top stars in this industry and we do not want to have any reason to terminate the contract." Chester, Caden's secretary told me."Alright, it won't happen again." I grumbled under my breathe. I stared at my well polished nails and blow air on them for no reason and stared at them in pride."The CEO would be returning to the office very soon and I think he is coming with his wife. She might work with him here in the company." Her told them and I immediately removed my gaze from my nails to look at him."What? Are you serious right now?" I gasped in shock.No way! This is not happening. I'm not going to let it happen. She can't have him in the office and still have him in the office. She can be with him in the house while I get to be with him in the office.I do not want her in the company."Let's wait and see this Monday and see what happens. But please get your acts t

I sighed and looked at mom."You know, I was just staring outside as usual to feed my eyes at the beautiful serene. You went to see the doctor right? What was it about?" I asked mom."Oh, that? I went to check up on the guy that saved your life. He is in a stable condition but he is still sleeping because of the sedatives he was given. And I also went to pay for his hospital bills." Mom explained with a small smile."Really mom? Wow, that's a relief. I have been so worried that I could not even sleep properly." I took in a deep breath with my hand on my chest."I know, right? I was worried too. And I heard no one has come to visit him since he was brought into the hospital. I wonder if he does not have a family that is worried about him," Mom said and sighed.I felt pity for him and also felt bad. What I did not understand was why he sav

They did not want us to drive that night in the rain and I thought it was a good idea too.My father had gone home before the rain had started. So, it was just Caden's family and I. Caden and I agreed to stay the night.Not as if we had any choice though. Caden took me up to his room in the mansion. The mansion was huge and bigger than my family's own, it was exquisite. Going up to Caden's room looked like a journey that was not ending. The stairs were long. Finally, we got to his room I was awed by how beautiful and big it was.It was a typical guys room with video games, shelf that was filled with books. He had a full length mirror just by the side, a bedside lamp, an alarm clock by the bed side too, there was also a blue couch. There were some art works on his well and it was pretty.Ivy gave me her clothes to change into.I came out of the bathroom af

"I'm fine, thanks to the special treatment I'm getting, a VIP room and a care taker." He replied. I smiled lightly at him."I'm sorry that you are lying there on the bed instead of me. But you did not have to do that. We don't even know each other," I said to him."Huh? What are you talking about?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.I looked at him weirdly and sighed. "You pushed me out of the road and got hit instead of me. I wanted to know why you did that." I explained again."I think you are mistaking miss. I did not push you out to save you. I was running away from someone and I did not see the vehicle that was coming and mistakenly pushed you so I could run to the other side of the road.It was not to save you," The guy said, much to my dismay."Wait, what?" I was speechless. Did I just hear him correctly or was I hallucinating?All these days I felt

Now, explain to me what was the personal issue that you and Caden had that made you come home separately." Grandpa stated.I looked at Caden but he removed his gaze from me and stared up at the ceiling.Everybody was looking at me and it made me uncomfortable."I'm telling them the truth." I moved closer to Caden and whispered.He looked right back at me at once and shook his head negatively. I batted my eyelashes and shook my head negatively."Grandpa, it was Caden's fault," I started with a sad look. "He—""I got her pregnant! I meant Lauren is pregnant!" Caden caught me off and blurted out in a haste, the dumbest thing I have heard as a lie.Caden's grandparents eyes widened from shock to excitement."Why did you not tell us that you are pregnant?" Grandma smiled as she walked up to me."Lauren left because she was mad at me for not buying her grape

He was reading a newspaper in the sitting room while on the couch.He removed his glasses and took his gaze from the newspaper to me.He looked shocked. "What do you mean?" He asked."The real reason I left Paris before Caden was because I caught him in bed with my friend that I just got reunited with after so many years." I explained. By the time I was done saying it, Caden was already standing beside me."What about you that I caught kissing Aiden in the kitchen last night?" Caden challenged and grandpa was even more shocked.Damn Caden! "That's not true! I did not kiss Aiden, we did not kiss. You saw it wrongly!" I defended myself and eyed him angrily."I saw it with my own eyes grandpa. They were so engrossed in each other's arms kissing that they did not even notice my presence when I came in."

He smiled at me."Your boyfriend has a good eye." The shop assistant smiled at me. I forced a smile and nodded my head."She is not my girlfriend," Caden said, looking at the shop assistant.I turned to look at him and shrugged my shoulders at him in a questioning way."Oh! I thought you were her boyfriend. I'm sorry." She apologized with a slight bow. Caden shook his head. He waved his hand and laughed. "No, it's not like that. She is actually my wife, I'm her husband." Caden told her proudly with a smile.I rolled my eyes and sighed. The shop assistant looked surprised but she smiled. She darted her eyes from Caden to me."Oh, I should have known better," She said to Caden. "Your husband has a good eye, it should look good on you."

It’s good to see you again and you look different too,” Caden said.I smiled and shrugged my shoulders.“Is he your son?” Caden asked as he looked at Miguel.I nodded my head.“Can we go somewhere and talk? Or can we set a date?” He asked. I thought about it for a while.“I’m free now. We can look for somewhere to sit and talk or maybe go to a restaurant. Anywhere it’s fine by me,” I said.“Let’s go to a restaurant, that would be better,” Caden said.Caden led the way while I held Miguel’s hand and trailed behind him.We got to the restaurant and sat down and I noticed that Caden’s eyes were on Miguel and his gaze wouldn’t leave Miguel.“Is Miguel, perhaps my son or are you married?” Caden asked. I noticed he was nervous.I chuckled softly.“I’m not married and yes, Miguel is your son. I conceived him the night of Chr

Back to what you said. I didn’t tell Caden anything. If there’s anything I told him, it is for him not to divorce you and try to love you. I’m not thinking of gritting back with him or anything.” She stated.I wanted to believe her but I just could not.“Can you prove what you just said?” I asked.“What do you mean?” She retorted.“How can you prove that you have no intention of getting together with Caden. How do you want me to believe you?” I asked with arms wrapped underneath my boobs.“Is that what you want?” She asked and I nodded my head.“If that’s what you want, I will leave. I will leave the country, if that is what will make you believe me and put your mind at rest, She said.“Are you serious right now? You are willing to cut ti

Instead you plead with me not to abandon Lauren.” Caden asked.“I was never yours in the first place neither were you mine. I know my place and I stand by it. We did love each other and had beautiful moments together but it was all a lie because I wasn’t your real wife. I was nothing but a fake and substitute bride. I don’t want to ruin anything further than this,” I said.Caden nodded his head.“I’m the only one who should pay for this crime because I deceived you, lived with you and pretended to be who I was not. You have every right to feel angry and betrayed towards me.I know you will never trust me again but it’s okay.” I smiled.I just could not stop smiling at him.“I’m no longer angry, Leslie.

    Chapter 139CADEN During my drive back home, I thought about what happened in the hospital back in Korean.I could now understand why Lauren was acting clingy towards and why she kissed me and Leslie wasn’t mad then.It was because she knew Lauren was my real wife and not her.She knew she didn’t have any right to feel jealous.Every thing now made sense to me.I got home and I met Lauren in the sitting room.“You should get ready and go to your parents mansion.” Was the first thing I told Lauren the moment I saw her.She looked gobsmacked.“Didn’t you hear me?” I walked up close to her.She stood up from the couch and stood in front of me.“What are you talking about? Where did you go so early this morning? I woke up but I couldn’t find you, I called you but you wouldn’t pick up,” She said.“That’s not what I’m talking to about right now, Lauren!” I half yelled.I was really very angry. I never imagined that two sisters could think of deceiving me this way.It was just unacceptable.

I will attend to him.” I told my parents and stood up from the chair. I places the chair properly and went to the sitting room.Caden didn’t look too please to see me or rather, he didn’t look like happy at all.“Good morning. What brings you here this early morning?” I asked with a confused look.“You are Leslie right?” Caden asked.I looked at him confused. Why was he asking me?“Yes, I am.” I replied.“You were the one I got married to and lived with for the past year right?” Caden asked again.At that moment, I was taken aback and felt so stunned. I was dumbfounded and speechless.I was so surprised.Different kind of emotions that I could not

We could go after closing hour right?” I replied.“Yes!” She squealed excitedly. She ran up to me and placed in a quick peck on my lips.Then she skipped happily out of the house.I looked at her and laughed. “She’s cute.”I went back to my laptop and continued what I was doing.After our date, we went home.

And even if she doesn’t cook the meal, Caden wouldn’t say anything and he wouldn’t suspect a thing either.It’s been more than a month since she went to him as his wife and he hasn’t noticed anything, at least not to start to question her about her identity.I took my phone and called her.“Are you already on your way?” She asked immediately she answered the call.“Why don’t you call Caden and tell him you won’t be able to cook the food because you are feeling sick? Or rather, you can order the food and make it look as if you cooked the food.” I told her.“Are you crazy Leslie? What the hell are you saying?” She yelled at me.“I don’t think I can come over and help you with what you want,” I said.“What? You can’t come? It’s our family’s li

No wonder you didn't come spend new year with us like you normally do." I sighed and my shoulders dropped."Yeah, I needed the rest and fun," Rose said."Where did you go for your vacation?" I asked her. There was a short silence from the other end and it made me curious."Hawaii." Rose replied. I stood up from my bed and placed my palm on my mouth and gasped."So, that is the reason you were hesitant about telling me huh?
