CADEN

"Lauren? Are you in there?" I knocked on her door softly.

"Come in." Her tiny voice answered. I smiled and opened the door.

The sight before me was breathtaking. She was dressed in a jumpsuit and her long hair was let down and it ran down her shoulders.

"What do you want?" She asked coldly. I ignored her question and made her sit on the bed.

I opened the box, squatted at her height and brought out her leg while she watched me in surprise.

I slipped her legs in the high heels and her eyes widened in shock.

"This was the reason I wanted you to leave those for Tessa. Hope you don't mind?" I beamed at her and stood up.

"Of course I don't! Thank you so much Caden. I've always wanted them and I can't believe I'm wearing them right now. Really, thank you," She said in a brittle voice.

I smiled back at her. She looked at the shoes and then at me. With a smile, she threw herself on me in a hug and we both fell on the bed.

We both stared at each other without breaking the eye c

So, she said she was going to rent an apartment for us to stay until my operation is done and successful.I definitely agreed with her. It was better than staying in the hospital.A chaffeur came to pick mom and I from the hospital. I was so happy. I was finally able to breathe in some fresh air properly.It was no longer the air from the hospital. As we got into the back seat of the car and the chaffeur drove off, I could not help but smile.There was no longer the smell of hospital, the smell of antiseptic. I breathed out a sigh of relief.Mom held my hand and squeezed them softly and gently. She smiled at me and nodded her head. I smiled back at her and placed my other hand on our hands.I rolled down the window and waved my hand outside as the air brushed pass my face. It was so cool and refresh

    Chapter 41LESLIEThe look on Tessa's face made me smile even more. She was very angry and her eyes were blazing with anger.She should know where she stands. Even if I allow Caden to have an affair, it should not and will never be Tessa."You are welcome Mrs Holtons." A taller girl smiled. I laughed and shook my head."There is no need for the formalities. You can address me as Lauren. And I look forward to working with you all." I replied.They smiled and applauded me except Tessa. I could tell she was becoming more angry and tensed. If looks could kill, I would probably be dead from her long and hard glare."Wow! Your shoes!" Anna gasped as her eyes trailed down to my legs and other eyes followed."Wow!" They all started to gasp."Are these not the new limited shoes? I heard there are only two that has been made. The first lady already got one and Lauren got the other one too." Another girl informed and they all gasped even louder.I smirked and looked at Tessa."Yes, it is." I gri

    Chapter 42 LESLIE We walked away from the models dressing room. "No, not all. I did not get fired and I still get to work for sir Caden. I still get to work as his personal assistant too. You do not have to worry about me." He replied. "I'm sorry that I did not put you into consideration. I'm glad that you did not get fired because of me." I told him. "No ma." He smiled. We continued to walk and I would confess that the company was huge. We took the elevator and Chester pressed the tenth floor button. We got inside the elevator and it started to move. Few seconds later, the elevator became faulty and I was super scared. The lights in the elevator went off and everywhere became dark. It was my first experiencing something like this in an elevator. Chester quickly called the emergency repair unit. The elevator shook again but this time, with more force. I did not know when I jumped into Chester's arms and held him very close that my body pressed hard against his. He held me tig

I could tell that she was already angry and I could not think of a way to calm her down either."When you are sure, you can come back to talk to me. But for now, I will be on my way. You are definitely not ready and I'm not ready to work with you too. Show me proof and I will decide whether to work with you or not." She told me and angrily walked away.I sighed and sipped from my iced coffee. I thought of what to do to prove that I was not just insinuating nonsense and I was not lying too.The way Lauren had spoken to me the day I met her, I was pretty sure it was Leslie. I have not met with Lauren before and I do not know how she looks like or talk like.I think I will have to find out. I'm not going to allow Leslie to be happy. I can't believe Larry compared me to her. I thought he loved me but it turned out that he used me.I'm not just going to let Leslie be.

I asked him."I'm sorry sir but I have an appointment later today. Maybe this weekend?" He replied politely."It's okay."He bowed again and left.I sighed and started going through my mails in my laptop. Lauren is supposed to be doing this but I do not want her to feel burden just yet. It's her first day at work and I do not intend to over work her.I would allow her do the ones she can but as time goes on, she would have to do the tedious works.Even after what happened between us few minutes ago, I can't help but still be considerate to her.I moved the unimportant mails to spam and replied the ones that were important.Work was tedious as usual that morning, it was more tedious since I have been away for a month.I had lots of things to work on and Chester helped a lot.

Dad yelled angrily at me, with his finger poking at me. He was red with anger and he was breathing heavily. I know it took everything in him to hold himself and not hit me. Dad has always be disappointed with me no matter what I did. I was never good enough no matter how hard I tried. "This is the second time in a month that this is happening. The stock prices are falling and we are losing millions! With this attitude, do you really think you deserve the position as a president when I resign? I don't think so!" He added. And that was all it took for me to get angry too and start to think badly about myself. Dad always has a way of attacking me and making me feel bad. "You know I did not do it on purpose dad! When it comes to your business and succeeding it, I'm your only son!" I retorted back with boldness. "What? Is that what you have

But you have not answered my other question." I frowned my face with my hands underneath my boobs. "Oh that? I'm not naked. I only took off my sleeves and trousers at night because I was feeling uncomfortable. No need to fret, I was too drunk to even touch you." He smirked. I huffed and walked out of the room. I slammed the door hard. Outside the room, I rested my back against the door and placed my hand on my thumping chest. My heart was beating really fast as I was nervous. I moved away from the door and went to my own room. I went into the bathroom, brushed me teeth and had a hurried shower. I do not know why I hurriedly took my bath or maybe I do know. I did not want to meet Caden again before I leave for work. I did not want us to see each other even if it's by mistake. I dressed up and tip toed out of my room

I asked calmly but my voice sounded loud because of the darkness and quietness.She was shocked and the can water she was holding fell and hit her leg."Ouch!" She winced and leaped closer to the fridge.I walked closer to her and pinned her to the fridge. Even in the dark, I could see her face especially her eyes that shone brightly. She gulped down and placed one of her hands in my chest."Why are you avoiding me?" I asked her as my breath fanned her neck."What are you talking about? Who is avoiding you? Me?" She rushed her words and she sounded rather nervous."Why are you avoiding me after being nice to me this morning?" I asked her softly.Her eyes bore into mine. "What do you mean? I didn't do anything." She replied."Stop pretending. I know you made

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.

Lower your voice,” She said and sighed.“I don’t need to reduce my voice because I know dad and mom are currently out of the country for a business trip and you are the only one around!” I snapped at her.“Okay. 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

I don’t need to go to the hospital.” I replied with a smile.Caden turned to look at me and his gaze had softened.“Why haven’t you come to beg my once to spare you and your family? 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. It was Lauren who made the reservation and it was a nice Italian restaurant that we haven’t been to before.We got home and it was Lauren who was the first to go to the bathroom.While waiting for her, I fell asleep.

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

I told her with a smirk."That was a long time ago. I thought you already forgot about it like I did. Whether she is not the right person or not, I don't care anymore.I almost went to jail. Caden told me it was because his wife pleaded with him not to do any of that and the case was dropped."

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?
