Her doppelganger

"Madam Rosalie wishes to see you immediately," These were the words that echoed relentlessly in Hayley's mind as she made her way out of their shared room. The man had already left after delivering the message to Hayley. Kimberly had advised Hayley to go alone after providing directions to where Madam's office was located. She had also advised Hayley to try and explain the situation to Madam Rosalie if she'd have compassion on her and allow her to remain in the retreat.

The air was thick with their animosity and resentment. With her hands trembling at her sides, she fought to steady herself against the backdrop of their mocking whispers.

"Do you mean Wendy Forbes from Clasold City?"Hayley hesitated for a moment, then nodded in affirmation.

"Leonardo, what’s this rumor making the rounds about your ex-wife, Hayley Forbes?" Dana inquired during their family dinner, her curiosity evident as she struggled to comprehend the situation. "How is she even... You know what I mean." She added, staring at Leonardo intently. Leonardo sighed deeply at his mother's probing questions.

Her friends.

Hayley still couldn't shake off the disbelief at her current situation as she remained in her bed that night, staring up at her ceiling, lost in thoughts. It was already past 9 pm and the occupants of the retreat seemed to have retired to bed and slept off, except her. She was consumed by her thoughts, her heart churning with several emotions as she reflected on the rumors that had been circulating about her. To compound her misery, Hayley's frustration only deepened when she watched that 'victim card' video of Cassidy online.

At this point, Hayley didn't care anymore, though. She was exhausted from the turmoil Cassidy had caused, and this had driven her to the need to focus more on achieving her goal. Hayley was working her ass off now to ensure she won the program, and as soon as she was out of the retreat,

The following day, Leonardo prepared himself for a press interview scheduled for an hour later. As the CEO of the ACS Group, he was compelled to address the swirling rumors about Hayley's supposed embezzlement of company funds. The board of executives was already feeling confused and anxious about the situation. Many were frustrated with Leonardo for his prolonged absence, having returned only a few days prior. Some even conspired to remove him from his position, questioning his competence. But they should have known better. Leonardo was quick to identify those behind the conspiracy and chose to dismiss them immediately, intending to use it as a lesson for the others, who were also secretly working against him. The fallout from previous executive issues had already served as a warning, prompting the remaining executives to stay clear of trouble. They knew that Leonardo was a formidable and ruthless boss who did not rely on their support to steer the company back on course. His wealth

Though Hayley was confident she hadn't lied to Rosalie, she worried that unforeseen complications could arise.

"What?"Hayley thought she must have misheard Rosalie the first time. Confusion was evident on her face as she mirrored Rosalie's intense gaze.Her eyes fixed on hers, Rosalie nodded in affirmation as she tapped the documents on the desk. "I understand your astonishment, my dear. But it's all in here." Hayley blinked in confusion, struggling to comprehend the absurdity in her words. "What? What are you talking about?"All her life, she had always believed she lost her real parents in a fatal car accident many years ago, or at least, that was what Wendy had made her believe when she was a kid. As she grew older, she dismissed the idea of searching for her real parents, thinking it was pointless. But now, she felt a surge of confusion as she continued staring into the eyes of this woman who looked so much like her. What was going on?Rosalie attempted to explain. "Calm down, Nina. Let me explain, alright?"Hayley's heart raced wildly, her breaths coming in short pants like she was havi

She observed Rosalie in silence for a moment, absorbing the revelation she had just received. Hayley was wrestling with the reality of her situation, piecing together her fragmented story. It made sense that Wendy’s vendetta had stemmed from someone else, but she never imagined that person would be her own father. The fact that this all occurred so many years ago only deepened her confusion and frustration. Why couldn’t Wendy just forgive and move on? Seeking revenge against her when all she had done was be the daughter of Wendy’s adversary was just utterly irrational.Taking a deep breath, Hayley attempted to compose her chaotic mind."I understand if you need some time to process this. Take all the time you need, my dear, I'm here," Rosalie said gently, her soft hand covering Hayley’s on the desk, pulling her from her thoughts. "But I want you to know how truly happy I a
