Celeste was busy sketching when someone knocked on her door.

“Come in,” she said, without the person entering yet. She covered her sketchpad with a bond paper because no one knew about the jewelry business she wanted to build except Maximus.

“Hi,” a man greeted her with a smile when he entered. Celeste looked at him in surprise.

“Miguel? Hey, what are you doing here?” She stood up and greeted Miguel. Miguel smiled and hugged Celeste.

“I miss you,” he said, which made Celeste smile.

“I miss you too,” Celeste replied, then she pulled away from Miguel’s hug. They both sat on the sofa. Celeste was wondering what Miguel was doing here, especially since he was working in France.

“You asked me to come here, you forgot?” Celeste thought about when she messaged Miguel to come to her office, especially since she knew Miguel was in France. She shook her head because she couldn’t remember asking Miguel to come here.

“I didn’t message you,” she said, which made Miguel laugh.

    Maximus wondered how Hannah found out about his business partnership with Celeste.“Who told you that?” he asked. Maximus knew that Celeste wouldn’t tell Hannah about their partnership or anyone else because Celeste wanted to keep their business a secret.“Just answer my question Maximus. Is that true? Why didn’t you tell me that my sister offered you something? Don’t I have the right to know about it, especially since you’re my boyfriend and Celeste is using our company’s name?” Maximus looked into Hannah’s eyes. He didn’t know why he got irritated whenever Hannah called him her boyfriend.When did they become a couple? Maximus wouldn’t deny that he had been with Hannah for years, but when did she become his girlfriend? When did he court her?“Not all my decisions need your approval. You weren’t like this before, but why are you interfering with me now? Is it because of your twins? I’m not interested in your twin.” he coldly answered. Hannah’s anger seemed to disappear when she hear

The children just looked like him, and he immediately thought that he might have a child, even though he had been with the woman he last slept with for seven years?For days, the three siblings had been swirling in his mind, and he tried to push them away because what he was thinking was impossible.He looked at his door when someone entered his office. Hannah smiled at him while carrying lunch boxes.“I cooked you some food. Finish what you’re doing later and we’ll eat together.” Hannah smiled at him like an angel. Maximus stared at Hannah. Sh

    When Celeste returned to the company, she was immediately called to the conference room. She was just a designer, but why did she have to be present at a meeting that was only for those in high positions? She just went because she thought they might be discussing the production. She had no idea how much they had already done because she didn’t control the production team.When she entered the conference room, the meeting was already starting, so she just apologized. She sat in the last seat and when she noticed Elloise, she furrowed her brows.She knew that Elloise didn’t work for the company, but what was she doing at the company now? She was also wearing formal clothes and she was smiling. When their eyes met, Elloise raised her eyebrow at Celeste then smirked at her.The meeting continued and Celeste just played with her pen because she felt like she was on display inside the conference room because they weren’t discussing their new designs.She just lifted her head when she heard

    Hannah glared at Celeste, feeling that Celeste knew something about what really happened seven years ago. Hannah met her sister's eyes bravely. She wouldn't let Celeste know what really happened to her and how she ended up with Maximus.“I just want to clear Daddy's name. Do you really want him to lose the company too? He was with your Mom when they built this company. I just want his name to be clean with the BOD and our business partners, so I decided to have a makeover and make it look like we're twins.”“And do you think you won't ruin his name and the company if everyone finds out the truth?”“They won't know anything if you don't say anything.” Hannah said bravely, making Celeste laugh awkwardly.“One wrong move, Hannah. I will reveal all your secrets to everyone.” Celeste threatened. After talking to Hannah, she left and went to her office. Hannah's teeth were gritting in anger at Celeste.If Celeste stayed in the company, she was sure Celeste would look for a loophole against

    Elloise and Hannah returned to the office, both furious. Elloise pulled her daughter's arm to stop her and face her.“You didn't even try to prevent Celeste from having control over production. You know what could happen if she becomes the reason for the company's success!” she said angrily to her daughter. Hannah rolled her eyes.“Do you really want me to go against Maximus?”“If that's what you have to do. You're the CEO of this company, so you still have the right to decide. Maximus is just your boyfriend and he has no position in this company, he's not even a BOD.” Elloise was still irritated.“Really Mom? If I do that, Maximus will get mad at me. We all know Maximus doesn't like being contradicted about his decisions. And yes, he has no position in the company, but Mom, he has helped the company a lot. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be CEO, people here wouldn't trust me.” Elloise slumped down on the sofa. She was annoyed with Celeste because they were fighting because of her.

    Maximus couldn't sleep for almost the entire night, his mind consumed by Celeste and her relationship with the three children. He wondered if his suspicions were right, if he had found a different woman seven years ago.He stood in front of his mirror in the shower room and just rubbed his face. What possible reason could Hannah have for lying to him and pretending to be the one he was with that night if his suspicions were correct?Maximus hadn't suspected anything back then because he didn't know Hannah had a twin. That's why he noticed the difference between Hannah and the woman he was actually with that night at the hotel, because even though he had only been with her and seen her for one night, it felt like he already knew her voice and body.Maximus clenched his fist, unsure what he would do to Hannah if he found out she had pretended and lied to him just because he was Maximus Lim.After getting ready, Maximus went to his company and immediately summoned Carter."You called me,

    Celeste was stunned for a few seconds because she didn't expect to see Maximus there.“Are you okay?” Maximus asked her. “Let’s get out of here as soon as possible because they might come back.” Maximus pulled Celeste and put her in his car. Celeste looked at Maximus and couldn't help but think, was it possible that Maximus was the one she was with at the hotel and was it possible that Maximus was the reason why Hannah copied her face?“How did you know that I’m here?” Celeste asked. Maximus put on his seat belt before turning to Celeste. When he noticed that Celeste hadn't put on her seat belt yet, he put it on for her. Celeste held her breath because Maximus' face was so close to hers.“They called me,” Maximus replied briefly. Celeste just laughed awkwardly, she didn't have any problems with the men who kidnapped her, and this was happening. She couldn't explain the fear she felt earlier when she thought this was going to be her end and she would leave her children alone.“They mis

    Luna was so excited to know the DNA results of the three of them with Maximus Lim. A few strands of Maximus' hair were already placed in a small and clean plastic. The three siblings were waiting inside their godmother's car.“How many days do you think we'll know the result, brother?” Luna asked her brothers impatiently.“Let’s just wait, Auntie Sarah,” Zachary replied. They waited for a few more minutes before Sarah arrived.“How are you, Auntie Sarah? How many days will we get the result?” Luna asked excitedly.“One week,” Sarah replied. Luna's shoulders slumped because she really wanted to know the results.“Don't get too excited, Luna. We'll know the results even if it's one week.” Maxwell said, they knew how excited their youngest was to know if Maximus was really their father.Sarah squeezed Luna's cheek and smiled at her.“Listen to your brothers, okay? They're right, you'll know the truth.” She also said to Luna. Even Sarah wanted to know the results, especially now that Cele

    Hannah kept hearing Celeste's words from earlier. They wouldn't leave her mind, especially now that Celeste knew who the man she was with at the hotel really was.“Aaaaahhhhh!” Hannah screamed loudly, then knocked over everything on her table. Her eyes were red and flashing with anger.“I won't let you take Maximus away from me. I've been happy for seven years, I've had my own family, I've had a good position in the company, and I've had the most powerful Lim! I won't let you ruin everything I have, I won't let you take everything away from me again! That won't happen!” she said wildly.She knocked over the things she saw on her table again.“Oh my God, what is happening here, Hannah?!” Elloise asked, surprised by the broken vases. Her daughter didn't turn to her. Hannah's fists were clenched as she stared into space.“Hannah, can you tell me what is happening?” She approached her daughter so she could see her face.“Celeste is trying to take everything away from me.
