Yvette couldn’t help but cry after finding out the truth behind the death of her twin. The woman behind the accident is also the woman they sent to assassinate her.Her anger is beyond immeasurable, and she just wants to see Irish behind bars."We have the upper hand on this case since we have one of their men. There’s an eighty percent chance that we will win this case since we have a lot of evidence now," the lawyer said as soon as they talked to him again."We have no idea what kind of plot they’re cooking for us, but we must get ready, knowing that they are now becoming aggressive in this case," the lawyer said.The hearing will start next week. Yvette is already bracing to meet Irish again, who’s also preparing herself for the case."They got Shaina, sir," one of the accomplices said as soon as they went to the Williams to report what happened in the hotel."Damn it!" Mr. Williams cursed."What?!" Irish who heard about it stood. "What do you mean they got her?""The FBI," the man
Yvette was saving her energy for the upcoming trial, even though her nightmares continued. It just got worse as the night passed, and she was thankful that Clyde didn’t leave her alone.When the day came that Yvette was going to face Irish in court, she made sure that she would never show sympathy for her after what she discovered.As soon as she saw Irish entering the court with her own team, a lawyer, some of her father's men, and her father, Yvette locked gazes with Irish, who looked at her as well.Yvette's jaw clenched when she vividly showed the controlled smile on her lips as if she were mocking her, telling her that she has no amount of remorse for what's happening and is living her life to the fullest while Yvette's life was put into a gutter while facing multiple dangers.She really has the guts to stand so proud, as she’s not behind the death of my twin! This woman is pure evil. A demon in disguise!Irish William's eyes flew to the other side of Yvette. The anger on her fac
It was Clyde’s turn to pledge in front of everyone as he put his hand on the book presented by the lawyer, to tell the truth, and nothing but the truth.The attorney from Irish William’s side started interrogating him."Tell us about your relationship with your wife, Yvonne Smith.""The deceased family of Yvonne, who adopted her, are my parents' family friends. They’re close especially my mother and her mother. When they died and their company hit bankruptcy, my parents decided to put us into a fixed marriage to save the dying company and to take care of Yvonne, who’s left.""Do you like her?""I don’t like the idea of marriage, but it is the only way I could manage our company since my father promised me he would let me handle it once I married Yvonne. Which made me think that I could just file for divorce after months if my parents saw that we wouldn’t work out as a married couple." "Did you cheat on her with multiple women?""No. My circles are aware of our set-up and how I wanted
The crowd was anticipating Clyde's answer and for the truth to unravel. The silence was defecating while they were all looking at Clyde, waiting to hear his truth.And while he's in silence, the deep and intense stare he's giving to Yvette is so vivid that when the camera was focused on him and it gave him a better angle where Yvette was shown as well, it captured how they locked gazes at each other, as if they were talking through their eyes."I fell in love with Yvonne Smith's new version. I fell in love through the process of getting curious about her changes, looking at her from time to time, and the fights that we would always argue about because she was being a pain in the ass. I fell in love with the woman I thought my wife was, but with the woman who's pretending to be a Smith, which is Yvette Martinez," he said without taking his eyes off Yvette.The crowd gasped. It was so loud that everyone heard it and their jaw dropped.Oh, damn it. I know that he needs to tell the truth,
"Your honor, I am here to present to you that Irish Williams, who just denied that she's not sending death threats on Clyde Smith's circles, also denied what Yvette Martinez said that she's not behind the accident of Yvonne Smith, just showed that she's lying in front of us," the attorney of Yvette's group appealed as Irish sat in front again."I am not sending threats in Clyde Smith's circles.""And how about the evidence presented? The CCTV footage was shown by Clyde Smith's men and the recording by Yvette Martinez. They are all pointing at you, saying that you are indeed plotting to kill Yvonne Smith, which you successfully did," the attorney said, looking at her critically."No, I didn't kill her," she said in a determined voice as she looked the lawyer in the eyes, unfazed by the question."Miss Williams, you are dodging my questions. Why don't you answer it truthfully? Why does the woman in the video look like you? Why does the woman in the recording sound like it was you? And h
"I was flirting with Clyde because it was part of the plan of our circle to help him out, to free him from the marriage with Yvonne, and our circle knows about it, which is why they ship us.""You mean, Clyde has been tolerating you, telling you to continue and to disrespect his wife?"Sofia looked at Clyde, who was now looking at him intensely."Did he never tell you to stop? Did he flirt with you because he likes it too? Or it was all your crazy ideas because you wanted him for yourself, to be Mrs. Smith, and perhaps to live a lavish life as well, just like what you are accusing Yvette of?"The crowd made a long reaction, showing that Sofia was put into place and cornered. Irish Williams glared at her surreptitiously, showing that she was not pleased to hear all of it, knowing that it was making her jealous."I am only doing it to help Clyde out. Nothing at all," Sofia explained in a timid voice, a bit shackled by the attorney’s questions."Which means you have no hidden motive, no
"State your name," the Attorney of Clyde said as the woman who made Irish William's group feel a little bit uncomfortable as soon as she showed up."Merci," she stated, and she looked at Williams."Merci. Tell us what your work is," the lawyer said carefully."I am a hitman.""A hitman. Is that your main goal, the reason why you pretended to be a room attendant and went into Ms. Martinez's condo unit the other day and attempted to kill her?"The crowd gasped. The information wasn't leaked at all, and hearing about it that it was brought up, that the hitman has been arrested and is now sitting in front of everyone getting interrogated, shocked everyone.'"Yes," she said truthfully."You are a hitman which means your job is to kill people with your clients' orders. Who ordered you to assassinate Ms. Martinez? Are they in the courtroom right now?""Yes," she admitted strongly.Everyone gasped again. Clyde's circles looked at each other as if they already had an idea who she was talking a
"Don't ever leave her, Clyde!" Trisha warned them while they were in the parking lot with their guards.Just like they used to do, they checked each side first to make sure that nothing was wrong, including the cars in their circles.Clyde bid goodbye to the boys, who couldn’t even invite him to drink and celebrate winning the case because he wanted to be with Yvette."You think something is going on between the two?" Heron suddenly asked while they were watching how Clyde went to Yvette and started talking to her."She looked like Yvonne Smith from all angles. And Clyde was smitten by her when the Yvonne we think of is none other than Yvette. Clearly, he fell for Yvette while thinking that she was still his wife," Damon explained.Callan just looked at Yvette, who looked more serious-looking. He won’t deny the fact that he admires Yvonne, but when Yvonne showed up as Yvette, he liked the changes as well, which is probably what happened to Clyde as well."Yvette seems mad at him," Cal
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
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
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
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
