“You are a jealous, wounded, lonely bitch who is going to die alone!” Emerald spat.I drew my brows together and stood from the couch slowly. Initially, I had planned to not exchange words with her today, but as usual, my twin sister would never let me be.“What?” I asked her, my voice coming out lower than what I had expected.What a disappointment!“I asked you to leave the house because we are having some visitors over and you refused!” She snapped.“I told you I would stay in my room and would not come out till they leave,” I said, my voice not going any higher.Maybe I am actually the weakling, not her.Our parents are not trying to see that.“And you called me a lonely wounded bitch because of that?” I added with a frown.“I don’t want you around. Leave the house,” she said.“I am not going anywhere. Come on, stop making a deal out of this,” I said.“Listen carefully Sapphire as I would not like to repeat myself. My wedding has been arranged and my future husband and his family
I stared at the tall, huge, and freakishly handsome man in front of me and then gulped unconsciously.“Erm… actually…” I swallowed hard and forced a smile.Why am I acting like I am caught up in a bad thing?I am not your wife-to-be, I am her twin!I felt like screaming that out.However, I knew I dared not.My family could hate me forever because of this.Apparently, they had told the man that I was out of the country and probably wouldn’t be present for their wedding.Hold on, Emerald told him she doesn’t do parties?!What a bloodsucking liar!I screamed inwardly.“You look so shocked to see me. Why? Is it because you lied?” He asked and I breathed in.Now, I gotta pretend like I am HER?!Damn, no way!But then again, if anything should go wrong tonight because of me. I would forever be blamed by my parents and Emerald.“Shocked?” I raised my brows, my heart beating so fast like it was going to come off my chest.“I am not. I just didn’t… I did not expect to meet you here,” I nodded
“You ran into your sister’s fiance at the club?!” I removed the phone from my ear as I heard the deafening scream from Hilda. “Can you keep it low, please?” I hissed between smiles. “So, what did you do? Did you tell him you are not his fiancé? What did he say?” “Are you crazy? I dare not tell him that!” “Why can’t you?” I could already imagine the frown on her face. Hilda is not like me, she would have told Daniel that she wasn’t Emerald if she was in my shoes. Even if she was with me last night, she would have told him or popped it one way or the other. “My family didn’t tell him I was in the country. They told him I was out of the country and would not even make it to the wedding.” “Are you crazy? And you just sit still? I would have ruined her chances last night if I were you.” “Why are you making a deal out of this? It’s not like attending the wedding is some big deal. I wouldn’t even attend if I was invited,” I rolled my eyes. “You are so dense,” she hissed and I grin
“No, this is insane, mum, dad! This is not the right thing to do,” I yelled at my father’s face, and trust me when I said that my heart tore when he didn't even bulge. Neither did my mum.Is this a dream? How the hell could they suggest that I marry my sister’s fiance?!“You are going to marry Logan, Sapphire. It’s the best thing you can do for our family right now,” Dad nodded his head slightly and exhaled.I turned to look at my mum who had not been saying a word and breathed out. “Our family?”My mum clasped her hands together and began, stuttering, “Sapphire… Listen to your father. It… it is for the best.”“Mum!”I swept my hair to the back and shook my head.“It is for the best? It is the best that I can do for OUR family? Tell me when any of you has ever considered me FAMILY!”I yelled. Maybe this was the time I talked. Maybe it was time I stood up for myself.“Sapphire…” my mum muttered softly. While on the other hand, my dad looked like his mind had been made up and there was n
“Are you insane?!” Her high-pitched scream made me frown and pull the phone away from my ear slowly. I have enough on my plate already, I don't need anyone scolding me right now. “Hilda…” I started, but she cut me off right away. “You are going to marry him? Do you know what that means?! You are getting committed for life!” “It’s just for a few weeks, Emerald is going to wake up and then return to her place,” I explained to her. “And what if she doesn’t wake up anytime soon? You can’t let your parents do this to you. They are selfish and you know they will never hesitate to use you over and over again as long as it benefits them. What about Aidan?! What about your dream?! The audition is coming up in a few months and marriage is definitely not what you should think of. Especially not to a person you don’t love. This is not a movie that…” “Do you think I want this either?!” I didn’t know when I yelled. With the way I had screamed, I am sure my voice could have traveled to the li
DANIEL’S POV.“Your wedding is tomorrow and you are in the office?!”I exhaled and rested my head on the headrest. “Dad, preparing for my marriage does not stop me from working, come on.”I can already imagine the distasteful look that must have gathered on his face after I said that. It is way too early to start talking about my upcoming marriage, does he not know that? One would think my parents were the ones getting married, not me.“It does! Do you not care about what people would think at all? You should be going around, trying to know your fiance better, but what? That is all you can do?”“When I was your age…”He started. I scratched in between my brows and breathed out. Here we go again…“I made sure your mother and I met every day during our wedding preparation. And that is one of the reasons we are still going strong even after thirty years of marriage. I made sure she had no other choice but to fall over and over for me. There was a time that…”“Dad, please,” I cut him of
“Oh, my! Did you lose weight, ma’am?”I glanced at the middle-aged woman who helped in putting the wedding dress on and then looked at my reflection in the big dressing mirror in front of me.The wedding is tomorrow and I am just trying out the dress.“W…why did you say that?” “The last time you came for the dress fitting. It was so tight that we had to loosen it a bit. That’s why…”“It’s the wedding stress.”I turned around gently as I watched my mum enter and said.Wedding stress? I chuckled slightly.“I think it runs in the family. I lost over three kg when I was preparing for my wedding too,” she said as a joke and the woman laughed too.“I can understand that so much! A lot of brides lost weight when preparing for their wedding. It’s fine, we can just adjust it quickly. Tomorrow is the wedding,” she looked at me and smiled.I looked at myself for the umpteenth time and curled my fist into a tight ball. This is indeed not what I had envisioned for myself.“I will pick another dre
“Why? She’s not picking up the call?” Liam looked at me and I nodded slightly.“I think she’s rethinking already. She probably knows what she is getting into and then thinks it is best to not get married. I understand her very much.”I turned my head slowly to look Liam’s direction but he looked away quickly. “You’re insane.”“You know I am right. If not, why is she not picking up? Didn’t you say that she used to pick up your call at the second ring?” He said and burst into laughter.I tilted my head gently and sighed. Taking another look at him, I dialed a number and waited for the receiver to pick up.“Sir.”“Find out where Emerald is, now,” I ordered, and ended the call before I could hear his answer.“Is that Alfredo? You want him to stalk YOUR FIANCE?!”Liam stressed his words intentionally and I wished right now this guy knew how irritated I was at the moment.At times, I wonder if he was truly my best friend because he acts exactly like an enemy.How could he always decide to n

“Spending a whole three months in France made me assume that you and Daniel will not return here again,” Hilda snorted as she settled on the chair beside Sapphire who had her eyes glued on the big screen in the in house Cinema. “We had to return. I’m near my due date and we don’t want to deliver our baby there,” Sapphire smiled as she dropped her hand on her friend’s hand. “You really spent three months there! I thought it was just going to be a week or two vacation!” Hilda hollered. “Trust me when I say that I don’t even wanna return. It’s really fun there. Plus, we were not there all through the three months, we traveled to Rome, Amsterdam, and so on.” “Tsk, no wonder you don’t always pick up my calls.” “You nag too much, Hilda. At least you came to see us in France with Liam about two months ago.” “So? That is enough. You don’t miss me at all?!” “No, no, I’m not saying that. Of course, I miss you a lot,” Sapphire shook her head. “Oh, Pookie… come here,” Hilda leaned closer t
FINALE.~~~DANIEL~~~I settled on the bed beside my sleeping wife and then dropped my hand on her stomach.“Amore, time to get up.”I stared at her sleeping, innocent face and then shook my head. Since we returned from Mogan’s party around eleven PM last night, till now, 10:56 AM, she had been sleeping.I proceeded to move the hair from her face and caressed her cheeks.“Amore.”When she did not answer nor stir in her sleep, I shook my head and then smacked my tongue.I do not like waking this woman. It usually takes a while before she answers.I raised my head as the maid walked out of the closet and I raised my brows, “Are you done?” I asked as I glanced at the bag in her hand.“Yes, sir.”“Take it to the car,” I said and she nodded her head, bowed, and then walked away.Today was the day I was going to show her the surprise that I have for her and I can’t wait for her to see it and be happy.I kept shaking her gently till she finally stirred in her sleep and then I exhaled. “Good mo
AUTHOR’S POV.“Babe, come help me with my shoe,” Sapphire said after she finished adjusting her dress.“I’m coming!” Daniel said from the closet.She settled on the edge of the bed and then sluggishly picked up the shoes from the ground.This evening, she was feeling heavier and lazier than usual. She just wanted to stay in bed and sleep, but it was Mogan’s party, and they gotta be there too.She panted as she felt beads of sweat gathering on her forehead and she wiped it off.She turned to look in the direction of the closet again and then Daniel did not come out still, she exhaled and shook her head.This was something she could do herself. However, she could not as she was tired and pregnant!She needed him to come help her, but he was not leaving the closet.“Babe,” she swallowed hard.When Daniel did not answer, She tried to wear the shoe herself but her stomach was making it hard for her so she just gave up again.“Daniel!” She snapped.“Amore, I’m coming,” Daniel came out of th
AUTHOR’S POV.For about a minute, the room was quiet as everyone kept mute.They definitely did not see that coming.Alice was the first to find out about Ethan and Mogan. She just knew something was up when Ethan had stopped calling and coming by to tell her to beg the woman.At first, she thought that Ethan was giving up on Mogan, but then again, she knew that was not the case.He had been waiting for her for several years to give up that way.So, she dug into it after sharing her thoughts with Daniel.As usual, Daniel and her husband just told her to mind her business and leave the two alone but she didn’t agree.When she found out the truth, it was when the two had rented out the whole restaurant just to have a date and immediately, she called Daniel and then Thomas.The three agreed to keep it within them and not say anything as it might be as if they were invading their privacy.Alice, at first, didn't agree with that. She literally wanted to go in at that moment and be like, “B
AUTHOR’S POV.Sapphire carried the funerary urn tightly in her arm as she stared at the sea with Daniel beside her, and then Liam, Hilda, and Carlo behind them.She closed her eyes as she muttered words on the funerary urn and then sniffed gently.Her mother had specifically told her that whenever she died, she wanted to be cremated and then that her ashes be poured into the sea.Sapphire had tried to persuade her mother not to do that as it was better for her to be buried, but Charlotte declined. “LETTING GO.”Charlotte had said. She said it was the best for her and Sapphire.The cremation process had taken two hours and afterward, Daniel had driven them to the sea that used to be her mother’s favorite“Amore,” Daniel patted her shoulder gently, gesturing to her that it was time to let go of her mother.After a while of clutching it closer to herself, Daniel watched as Sapphire began to sprinkle the ashes in the water while she muttered words and smiled.“Till we meet… to part no mo
AUTHOR’S POV.Daniel clicked on the button on the laptop, leaned back, and then raised his head as Liam moved over to him.“What’s that?”“Let’s watch,” he smiled.When Daniel had told Liam about his experience with Baldwin, the man had felt very bad and sad for his friend.Instead of getting mad at him for keeping it to himself all that while, he instead pulled him into a hug and muttered words of encouragement to him.As Daniel and Liam heard the scream that came from the laptop, they glued their eyes to the screen.Baldwin was hung up in the air while his feet were dangling around. He was stripped naked and looked around in fear.“Holy Moly!” Liam exclaimed as he watched the video in front of him and then glanced at his friend who had no expression on his face.It definitely was his idea.“What are they doing?” Liam asked as his eyes met with the firewood on the floor centered on where Baldwin was dangling from.“Showing him what hell feels like,” he raised the corner of his lips i
AUTHOR’S POV. Charlotte sat patiently behind the counter as she waited for the man to appear and after what seemed like an eternity, he walked towards her with two cell guards behind him. “See who is here,” he snorted as he settled on the chair and then tapped the glass which divided them. Charlotte stared at George and then nodded her head, she watched as the guards left them alone and then leaned her back against the chair. “You must have missed me, no?” George laughed. “You left without telling anyone. Should I be happy about your presence? You don’t think I am going to accept you, do you?” He raised his brows. “You… you look so good in that jail uniform,” Charlotte commented and then chuckled. “What?” George frowned. “That uniform. I said it looks so good on you,” she smiled again. “Hey!” “I heard you’re sentenced to twelve years imprisonment, with four years probation afterward.” “So? Do you pity me?” “Pity you? Come on, no way. I don’t even mind if you’re sentenced to
AUTHOR’S POV.“How could you say you don’t want to meet him?” Sapphire pulled her brows together.“You might not know… no, it is something that you know very well. I am not like you. I’m not going to seek validation from another man just because MY DAD, George, is in prison. Never. He treated you wrong… not me. Get your facts right, while growing up, I was loved by him. He hated you so it is understandable if you choose to accept another man. As for me, I am not interested in that shit. All I need is to get away from this fucking country and away from you all. I hate you very much and staying in this country with you all is messing with my head and I might want to do something bad again… you know I always do,” she breathed out and swept her hair to the back.“Have fun with your new father… but I don’t care. Just give me money, and I will leave. I know you want that more than anyone else.”Sapphire smacked her tongue and exhaled. Of course, she wanted it. She took a glance at Carlo who
