When tomorrow morning came, the first thing that welcomed their sight was Clyde's parents, who were already in front of the door of Yvette's penthouse.Clyde helped them with their things, as Mrs. Smith cannot take her eyes off Yvette. Yvette was kind of nervous because she knew his mother knew she was Yvette and not Yvonne, which she used to know.Mrs. Smith's eyes drifted to her hands as if she were trying to find some evidence, and there it was: the ring."Wow. I haven't really appreciated Paris this much. But wow. It's quite not bad, huh? It felt so peaceful and cozy," Mr. Smith commented as he looked out the window, seeing the Eiffel Tower as a view."Yvette is quite obsessed with Paris, Dad," Clyde said after putting their things in their own room, which is the guest room.Mr. Smith glanced at his son. "Now I slowly understand why you're obsessed with it too. You almost wanted to live here." He arched his brow.Clyde stifled his smile and looked at Yvette, who smiled a little to
They had dinner that night together with Clyde's parents as they talked about the upcoming wedding day."Is it at the church? Or a beach wedding?" Mr. Smith asked.Clyde then looked at Yvette."I think I'm going to like the church," Yvette said, looking at Clyde, who nodded as well."And where? Here in Paris? Or in New York?""We both like to try it here first in Paris, then we could set another one in New York," Clyde answered."Oh wow. That's actually a nice idea. With different themes. It would be cute." Maybe before the baby comes out, and then after, so my grandchild would be there at the second wedding. It's a good transition, actually," Mrs. Smith said, smiling from ear to ear.Yvette might now shout how excited she was, but deep down, she was really looking forward to it. It was an unexpected plot twist happening in her life; she didn't plan on getting married knowing how independent she was, as she knew to herself she didn't want a man in her life.But it seems like life has
It wasn't the first time that Yvette got some cravings that were out of this world, and they would always end up traveling just so she could eat the food she was craving.Other than that, her mood swings were the worst. Clyde could really tell that if their baby is a daughter, it might be a pain in the ass and feisty like her mom.But aside from those things, Yvette has the weirdest hormones; they could do it wherever they were, mostly in public places, because Yvette was just feeling it so Clyde really had to be so discreet and do everything just to give whatever she wanted. Clyde could really tell how wild Yvette was as a pregnant woman, but at the same time, he was so proud because it seemed like she was craving for him the most out of those foods she wanted in the middle of the night.Their wedding was approaching, as they were already choosing some guests for the distribution of the invitation cards."You're going to invite him? Really?" Clyde raised his brow as soon as he saw B
After months of working continuously without a break, finally, Yvette got the chance to have a vacation which will officially start tomorrow. So, as a celebration of her upcoming 3 months’ vacation and also as a small reward for herself, she opened a bottle of Bottega-Gold Prosecco champagne and immediately poured herself a glass.“Damn, that’s nice.”She just came home from work but drinking champagne is what she immediately did instead of her usual routine of taking a half bath and changing clothes.Grabbing the bottle of champagne in one hand and her glass, in the other hand, she went to her balcony. The cold breeze immediately made contact with her skin and that made her shiver a little. She lives in a condo unit and her room is on the 17th floor of the building. It was high up but the scenery that she can see from her balcony, especially during the night, makes her pricey monthly payment for the place worth it.City lights. That’s what she sees every night.Unlike her twin sister
It’s been two days and Yvonne was still in the same condition. And knowing that her sister is fighting for her dear life with just the help of numerous machines, Yvette can’t be at peace. She only slept for a few hours in those two days and she feels so restless. But she tried to ignore that because in her mind, her sister needs her and she needs to be prepared if she suddenly woke up from being unconscious.During those times that she was waiting, she tried to keep herself mentally strong. But there are times that she fails to do that. Because how can she not when it was her sister who is suffering?If there’s one person who can give her strength but also make her weak and vulnerable, it’s only Yvonne.Not even their parents can make her this weak and vulnerable. Even when they died. Sure, she just teared up a little but that’s it. But, Yvonne… her twin is different.Because she’s the only person who understands her and respects her for who she is in their family. For her, she’s more
A month later…Yvette had just come out of a shower when Yvonne’s phone rang. Yes, she kept her sister’s phone because her gut feeling was telling her that she can use her sister’s device for future purposes. And guess what? She did. For the past days, she’s been receiving calls from Clyde Smith, her sister’s husband.But instead of ignoring the call as she did for the past days, this time she confidently answered the call. Clyde, on the other line, was surprised that his wife picked up.About damn time.“Where are you?” He straightly asked without any greetings just like what he usually does.“Is that the right way to greet your wife, Mister Smith?” Yvette uttered in greeted teeth.Is this how he usually communicates with my sister? Because if it is, then what the actual fuck?Clyde was taken aback by the words of his wife which made his forehead crease. Did she just call her by his surname? Also, the tone of her voice was slightly different too from what he’s used to.“As if you’re
Instead of driving her car, Yvette decided to ride a taxi on her way to Clyde’s house. Because if she’ll pretend to be her sister, she needed to act like she doesn’t know how to drive. Because people around Yvonne know for a fact that she can’t drive even with the numerous lessons that she took before.After an hour of travelling, the taxi that she was riding finally entered a subdivision. That’s why she became attentive to her surroundings because she needs to tell the driver the right directions for them to arrive exactly at Clyde’s place.Yvette never expected that she’ll find the information, from her sister’s random stories whenever they talk through text or call or video chat, useful at this moment. Like their house’s address and how it looks like, the name of their house helpers, and even the name of their gardeners. She knows every person that’s related to her twin because of how talkative she was. The reason also why she founds this pretend thing like a piece of cake.But upo
After a series of searching, Yvette felt so relieved that she had some clothes that she can bear to wear in her twin’s pile of clothes. It was those clothes that she sends her whenever she goes shopping but she never saw Yvonne wear them because she said that the clothes were too revealing for her.She ended up choosing a yellow sleeveless tank top and white chiffon shorts. Casual but stylish.After that, she went out of the room to go to the kitchen. But as she was walking downstairs, her steps halted midway when she saw the door open and it revealed a man in corporal attire.It was the Clyde Smith.Seeing his figure right in front of her eyes, Yvette can’t help but grit her teeth and clench her fist in anger.So, this is what a devil incarnate looks like in person, huh?She saw how one of the guards, who entered the mansion with him, whisper something to his ear which made him glance in her direction and all of a sudden, they were meeting each other’s gaze. His eyes were void of any

Their wedding preparation is now ongoing. Clyde has never left Yvette's side, even though her stomach isn't that big yet. And Yvette, who seems so clingy to Clyde, can't last a minute apart from him as well."Phew, lovebirds. I could really tell that you two are so madly in love with each other," Damon commented as soon as he went in with Trisha in the safe. They were planning to meet up for the food tasting to be served on the wedding day, and Yvette wanted to have Clyde by her side.Trisha giggled when she saw that even their hands were intertwined. It was so unusual to see the coldhearted and heartless Yvette, who's being lovey-dovey to her fiancé.Damon and Trisha took a seat as they both looked at their hands intertwined. And Trisha, who wanted to make a satire out of it, put her hand on Damon's hand as well, and they intertwined it.Clyde shook his head, but there was a playful smile kissing his lips. They were just interrupted when the cakes were already served.Clyde took a sm
After Clyde found out that Yvette was pregnant, he was three times more careful. Even the speed didn’t reach forty, and he would glance at her from time to time while his other hand rested on the side of her leg, as if she couldn't stand a chance of being away from him."I’m kind of worried. Aren’t you planning to rest working? You have your team. And most of your brands have a manager to handle it. You should just stay at home, you know," he encouraged as if only Yvette would just stop moving just to focus on herself."It’s just weeks, Clyde, you paranoid. And my work wasn’t that heavy to handle. I just attend invites, review the sales, make new designs... that’s all. Though it’s quite loaded every day, it’s bearable. It’s not something that requires rest because I’m having fun with those too.”"Or I’ll have a year's leave from the company to be with you all the time?" he suggested carefully, as he really looked determined to be with her."Stop it. I can handle myself as a pregnant w
Yvette’s eyes widened. For the longest time that she has been with Melissa, she didn’t see it coming. She always looked up to her like a mentor, someone whom she wanted to be when she reached her forties or fifties. She inspires her on so many levels that she’s one of the reasons she stayed in the field of fashion design, as she wanted to pursue it so badly despite the obstacles she has faced in the past.And even though she received some hate because of her decision, she will never regret that she found Melissa during those years. She will never regret that she took a risk, despite how heavy the journey would be.For the years of being with her, she has always been thankful to her, and sometimes she thinks she wasn’t thankful enough for telling it to her, for always including her in her success, for showing it to her, because Yvette believes how much Melissa deserves the world, and she wanted to give everything to her.It was the kind of relationship she unexpectedly found—a kind of
Since the day that Yvette and Clyde were seen together in public, the two have always been a hot topic on the internet and got trending on social media platforms, while they continued dating at their own pace without getting worried that someone would take photos of them while they were dating outside.It became their daily routine. Clyde would sometimes fly out to Paris, as he would spend time with Yvette on days that he missed her, and would fly back to New York to manage his work, knowing that he’s been a target by some of the business tycoons lately because his name was just too sparking on the internet for being married to one of the most successful young billionaires herself, Yvette Smith, the CEO of Yvette, which was now boosting.There was a lot of trying to bring them down, posting negativity against them together, and throwing rocks at Yvette for being Clyde’s wife.How could you marry the husband of your twin in the past? You’ve fought her case and even confessed on televis
Clyde woke up next to Yvette. And as soon as his eyes saw Yvette, who was peacefully sleeping beside him, he suddenly felt at ease.He pulled her naked body closer and kissed the top of her head as Yvette unconsciously snuggled against him.Clyde smiled and rested his hand around her small waist while he started drawing lazy circles against her back.It was the life that Clyde had built in his mind for a long time as soon as he acknowledged that he fell in love with the woman whom he thought his wife was.And now that she was back in his arms, as he fully acknowledged who she was and as he had already memorized every detail about her, he doesn't want to let her go anymore. He is willing to sacrifice everything just to have a life with Yvette.Yvette slowly opened her eyes until she saw him looking at her. Clyde crouched a bit and planted a kiss on her lips."Mornin’," he said with an accent."Morning...” Yvette greeted back in a slurry voice.Damn, how sexy that voice is!His hand was
Clyde was shocked that it was Yvette who was insisting on a photo with them, reasoning that it was because of the Eiffel Tower, but he knew it was because Clyde pointed out he wanted photos with her.Clyde took the phone out of her hand and cleared his throat as he clicked the camera and put it at the front as they both looked at the camera.Clyde’s eyes went to Yvette.Damn. She’s my wife, right?She cleared her throat and tried to focus as he clicked the camera. Yvette rested her elbow on the table, her chin resting on her palm as she smiled a bit. Clyde looked at him and smiled too.Clyde wasn’t in himself while taking photos because he was mesmerized by her beauty. For the first time, they have photos that weren’t forced at all.She’s in love with me. Damn…After taking photos, Clyde took out his phone and didn’t miss passing it to his phone.They have a nice dinner while talking about random things, away from the negativity that’s trying to snap them both, as Yvette wanted to jus
