CHAPTER 11: Hi Dad.

SCARLETT'S POV 'Sir Chairman, the young Miss is here.' The guard announced the moment we walked in and I seized my breathing.Here goes nothing... I pursed my lips as I took in his features. He was tall and standing with his back to us, his hands folded behind his waist. His auburn hair had few stripes of gray at the side; either from aging or maybe a dye. The man was dressed in a tuxedo. I watched him with my heart beating hard against my chest and then...he turned around. His dark green eyes lit up the moment he saw me and for a moment, he looked dazed. 'You look so much like your mother.' He smiled but I noticed the tears that clouded his eyes as he said those words. I swallowed nothing as I struggled within me for words _for the right words to say at such a moment.Was I supposed to say thank you? Hello? Hi? Good morning or whatever? Gosh! Someone tell me what to do... 'Hi...uh...uhm Da..dad?' I stuttered between words. My father chuckled softly and walked across t

CHAPTER 12: Another Daughter

IMOGEN'S POV While growing up I've heard people talk all sorts of things about mother but I never got used to hearing it. Especially when they say she betrayed her best friend or stole her bestfriend's man, leading her to an untimely death. You see, I don't care about those rumors or how true they might be. Each time I'm forced to think of the possibility of my mom doing that, I reminded myself that she brought me and my brother to this world. She gave us the perfect life anyone could ask for. People could talk about us at our backs for all I care, but I won't tolerate it when I'm a witness to such at the moment. I couldn't stay back and do nothing when I hear such. I smirked as their eyes widened on recognizing me, surely they didn't realize I was here. 'What were you saying about my mother just now?' I stood up and stride towards them, expecting them to be panicky but they were not. They seem rather...amused? Do I look funny to them? 'Awwn,' the tall woman with blue

CHAPTER 15: Hello Mother

SCARLETT'S POV 'Do you like it?' Dad asked immediately we walked in the amazingly furnished room. It was beautiful, exactly how I love my room to look. Sky would say it's girlie perfect. 'Yes Dad, it's perfect.' I said and he smiled. 'But if you don't mind, I'll like to stay in mom's room if it's still available.' I requested and Dad paused for a while. 'Alright Heidi, since that's what you want I'll have someone clean it up for you. You can rest here tonight. When your friend comes, this could be her room.' He said. Yup! I already talked about everything with Dad so don't be surprised. 'Thank you Dad. But by cleaning it up, hope you won't be moving her stuff? I'd love it the way she'd left it.' He smiled. 'Aimee was right, you're exactly like your Mom. Don't worry, I didn't have anyone touch her properties for over two decades, I won't now. Especially when you're here.' He said and I smiled. 'That's so sweet of you. Thank you Dad.' I grinned and he chuckled. 'G

NARRATIVE Ashton was just about to step out the Grey's family manor upon receiving an urgent call from his friend, Logan when his sister stopped him. "Ashton, where are you going dressed like that? Did you forget? That woman's death anniversary is today and you know the rules. Especially with that strange girl showing up. Also the press conference is going to hold in few minutes. I hope you're not trying to get off father's good books? Mother would be disappointed." Imogen said with a lazy smile on. She was just coming downstairs from her room when she saw her brother dressed casually, his car key in hand as he walked hurriedly, towards the entrance/ exit door of their home. On a normal day, she wouldn't be concerned over her twin brother's activities but today, for their sake and their mother's, they needed to trade cautiously.

SCARLETT'S POV I peered searchingly over mother's diary. Sky, Mom and Dad were with me in the limo as we drove to the company's headquarters. First time I'll be going there but I already know everything about it from mother's explanation. She and Dad founded the company afterall. In Mother's diary, she talked about the achievements of the company in her time and the goals they're planning to achieve over time. I discovered, most of it dad already accomplished. Dad's phone rang and he answered the call. "Yes, we're on the way now. The press members, stakeholders and the board of directors are there now? Alright, we'll be there in a moment." He ended the call. I raised my gaze in time to see him smile at me. "Heidi, you ready?" He asked and Mom smiled. "Obviously, she is." She said and Sky caressed my arm assuringly. "I am ready!"

CHAPTER 18: I think I like this girl

SCARLETT'S POV We arrived at the company's building and I let out a gasp on beholding the massive, exquisite skyscraper standing firmly amidst several others in the heart of the city. Of course I've seen it being featured in some commercial videos and magazines but I really didn't expect it to be this huge physically. "It's amazing sugar, can't believe I'm here looking at and about to step into the renowned headquarters of JP's Enterprise." Skylar gushed beside me and mother chuckled. Dad smiled at me and I smiled back, turning my gaze to stare out the window of the limo as the driver pulled the car into a halt in the vast parking area of the company. I could see a huge crowd of people outside the building and Mom made me understand that they all consist of several fans of my late mother, some rookie journalists_who wanted to grab a first hand information of the press conference but wouldn't be able to gain entrance in because of their inexperience or low status and several

CHAPTER 19: A Legitimate Daughter 2

SKYLAR'S POV We all watched in awe over Scarlett's intriguing, jaw dropping introduction. Hurray! My baby got 'em all trippin' I was mentally singing. Aunt Aimee was grinning from either pride or excitement beside me as she watched her foster daughter. Chairman Grey had a proud smile and look in his eyes as he looked sideways at her. I then decided to look at her new family. Harriet was red in the face from either shock, anger or from trying to suppress her discomfort. Her daughter, the beautiful girl I'd once admired on the very day I arrived this country, shifted uncomfortably in her seat also trying to control her discomfort but wasn't seeming successful. My eyes scanned around for the boy, Imogen's twin. The only sad part about everything that's happened so far, is the fact that my crush turned out to be the son of the woman who killed my friend's biological mother. How was I supposed to react to this one? Well, I can just stop crushing anyway. Who knows, he might no

CHAPTER 20: My Crazy friend

IMOGEN'S POV"Mum I just can't accept this. Seriously, I don't think I'll ever get used to the strange girl posing as an elder sister and living in our home. Was it so hard for father to have given us a hint all these years? Why let us find out only recently?" I said to mother, not hiding the displeasure in my voice. I mean, we had to sit there and listen to her talk about herself as a 'legitimate' daughter. She had guts really! Even the way she smartly answered the questions thrown at her shows just how well she knows what she's doing. Mother sighed and touched my arm slightly, I was looking out the window as the driver drove us home. "Imogen, don't be too hard on your father. Take it as my fault," I turned to look at her in confusion. "I didn't care enough for him that's why he probably couldn't tell me." She said. "Mother!" I cut in, immediately. "That's not true. Everyone knows how greatly you care about father." I said and she gave me a small smile. "Just leave it all to me,
