Chapter 30: A New Beginning
Fifteen Years Later.Lessandra's POV:"Teacher, teacher! Someone is looking for you outside!" At once my pupils said. I quickly got up from my desk and went outside to see who my guest was."You!" I flinched when I was suddenly pointed at by an unfamiliar man."Excuse me?" I said confusedly as I pointed to myself."How dare you to ranaway after getting the money that you've asked?" He said angrily. I was even more confused by what he said. What currency is he referring to?"Lessanna, you need to go home because my Grandpa is coming. He wants to see you. He wants to meet my wife—""Stop!" I never let him finished his words. I also quickly pulled him into a private place. It’s hard, we’re at school and I don’t want my pupils to see the way I talk to this guy. I don’t know what he’s saying."What are you saying? What wife?" I asked him annoyed. I don't really know him but if he speaks it's like we'll meet and I'm in arrears with him."Have you forgotten? Didn't you beg me to take you as

Chapter 31: His Fake Wife
Lessandra's POV:I don’t know if I’m going to do it right. If this is the right thing to do just to be with my twin sister again. But I have already decided and I will accept that man's offer.Here I am today at Mom and Dad’s grave. Carrying white flowers, I slowly approached the tomb and laid there two baskets of flowers. I also took the white candles and lit them one by one in front of the picture of Mom and Dad.When I lit the candles, I looked up at the sky as if in the future and I was talking to Mom and Dad.Even before I could speak, I could feel my tears welling up immediately. I tried to stop crying by biting my lower lip."Mom, I really miss you and Daddy. Do you know that?" I cried talking to Mommy and Daddy while looking at their pictures."If I could just ask one wish, I would have wished for a long time that you were still here. Maybe, if you and Dad hadn't died right away, Lessanna wouldn't have run away, would she?" I kept talking to the two of them."But it doesn't ma

Chapter 32: Meeting His Grandfather
Lessandra's POV:"We're here." I looked out of Ashton's car when he said we had arrived at his Grandfather's Mansion. We are now in front of a big house, a palace-like house."I'm nervous." I said softly before I slowly removed my seatbelt."You don't have to be nervous." Smiling, he said. But he still didn't say enough so that I wouldn't be nervous, I seemed even more nervous."What if he doubts?" I couldn’t help but asked him."No, what you're thinking won't happen. Trust me. Just act like naturally." He said to lighten my spirits. I just forcedly smiled before nodding to him."Ashton!" His Grandfather immediately greeted him. Ashton greeted his Grandfather with open arms. They just hugged for a moment then his Grandpa patted his shoulder."So, do I have a great -grandchild with you?" he asked Ashton laughing. I winced at what I heard."Lessanna! I miss you, my granddaughter." He said laughing before hugging me and lightly patting my shoulder as well."I'm fine, Grandpa. I miss you

Chapter 33: Getting to Know You
Lessandra's POV:"Thank you." I said softly after he escorted me to the opposite side of my apartment."Wait." I was shocked when he stopped me from just opening the door of his car so that I could get off."Why?" I asked confused."Can you just stay at home? I mean, you're my wife now." he added."Correction, your fake wife." I said while showing him my beautiful smile."Yeah. But what if Grandpa asks why we're not together?" he said suddenly. I could not speak for a moment because of what he said. But if you think about it, we haven't gotten to know each other very well yet so I'm also not comfortable living with him."Maybe you can find a way, can't you?" I asked him. He just looked into my eyes then he just shrugged."Living together is the only way, Lessandra." he said seriously so I swallowed."But I do not know you." my direct justification. He looked serious then he barely adjusted the necktie he was wearing. He didn't speak anymore so I let him know again that I was getting o

Chapter 34: Weird Heartbeat
Lessandra's POV:After Ashley slapped and tweaked me, she immediately acted as if she had done nothing wrong to me.I slowly clenched my fist. I was just holding back from hurting her as well. Somehow I still have respect left in my body despite what she did to me."Don't make any mistake of telling my brother what I have done to you if you don't want me to do it again to you. Also, it's not the only thing I can do, my dear Lessanna. Do you understand?" she said emphatically as she fixed her make-up. I clenched my fist again. I also cleaned myself up after I went out of the bathroom first."Are you alright?" Ashton's opening question to me when I got back to our table. Perhaps, Ashton knew that her sister did not feel well for me because I could see the concern in his eyes.I slowly sat back in my chair then I just smiled at Ashton."Yes, I'm okay." I said. I also quickly took a glass of water and immediately drank it.Ashley didn't come back to our table either because a VIP costumer

Chapter 35: A Life With Him
Lessandra's POV:"Ashton!" I called Ashton when I saw him leaving the house. He was very well dressed and seemed to be chasing time. He stopped when I called him, but I knew he still didn’t pay attention to me because he was talking to someone over the cellphone."What?" he asked annoyed after he dropped the call of the person he was talking to earlier on the line."Where are you going? Are you coming home for dinner?" I asked him one question after another. He just frowned at me after he looked at the wristwatch he was wearing."Stop acting like a real wife, Lessandra! You're just my fake wife, remember?" I recoiled because of the sudden shaking of my knees. I fainted at the words he uttered in my face."I have to go, bye!" he added and left like he didn't care. When he finally left, I just sat on the floor while hugging my knees.I never thought that after my decision, my life would end like this. It's been a month since I moved in with him. At first, he's okay, we're okay. But as t

Chapter 36: A Night to Remember
Lessandra's POV:"Why did you do that?" Ashton asked me coldly when we were outside. He also rubbed his sinuses then wiped his face with his two hands."I just think it's the right thing to do." My response was calm. His forehead furrowed even more then he became restless. He seems to wanted to do something he can’t do, so, he stops it."What are you doing here?" He asked again. I can see that he's still bothered. But he just didn’t know how to get the mess out of his mind."As what I've said earlier, I'm here for you." I answered him honestly. His eyes narrowed as he looked at me. I can see different emotions in his eyes, but none of them is familiar to me."Lessandra, tell me the truth, do you like me?" I don’t know where he got that idea and why that’s what he asked me. I couldn’t answer right away because I wasn’t ready for that question."Ex — excuse me?" I stuttered to say. I also recoiled because of his strange stare and the way he slowly approached me."Ashton—"Tsup!I close

Chapter 37: When Stupidity and Love Collides
Ashton's POV:Sobs* sobs*I woke up because of the small sobs I heard. When I opened my eyes I was exposed to the dazzling light from outside the window. I got up and gently rubbed my eyes to erase my drowsiness.I rolled my eyes across my room and when my gaze shifted to the wall clock it was only then that I confirmed what time it was. It's already eight in the morning. Good thing and I don’t have an office job right now. It's Saturday and it's my day off. Grandpa is in the company now.Sniff* sniff*I stood up to find where the faint crying I had heard earlier was coming from. As I stood up, I was exposed to the scattered clothes. These belongs to us, mine and Lessandra. I also looked at the bed and rubbed my forehead when it was confirmed that my bedsheet has blood stains.Fvck! What have I done? How could I do that when I knew Lessanna was the one I loved and not her twin sister? Damn! I'm confused.I hurried to the bathroom to look for Lessandra. I don’t know how she feels right

Chapter 38: His Dark Secret
Lessandra's POV:Riinnngggg!The repeated ringing of my cellphone made me get up. When I looked at who the caller was, an unknown number was listed. I was even more badtripped when I found out that the caller had just called the wrong number.I threw my cellphone on the bed then I fell back to bed. I'm still sleepy. It's Sunday and there's no school so it's okay for me to get up at noon."Lessandra!" I angrily faced Ashton. What is this man's problem? I'm still sleepy, thank goodness!"What?" I asked him annoyed."You need to get up there, Ashley and Grandpa are coming today. We're having lunch here." he said which awakened my spirit."With Ashley?" my lazy question."Yes. Why, is there a problem?" he asked. I shook my head in response."I thought, Ashley doesn't want to see me? Why did she agree to this lunch?" I asked him. I'm a little bit curious too."Grandpa invited her. She doesn't refuse when Grandpa comes. Besides, don't worry about my sister, you'll get used to her too." he s

Chapter 39: Between Heart and Mind
Lessandra's POV:"Lessanna, tell me about your life." I looked at Ashton's Grandpa in shock because of what he said. When I recovered I smiled at him then I told him about what had happened to me recently, as he wanted to hear."It's okay. I'm just a little busy with work. But I'm fulfilling my obligations as Ashton's wife." I said smiling. But deep inside, I'm holding my fear. As much as possible Ashton shouldn’t have noticed that I found out anything today."Is that so? That's good." he nodded then turned his attention to Ashton, something that caused me to take a deep breath.Ashley, on the other hand, was still staring at me. If her stare was just deadly, I would probably have been lying here in my seat before."How about you, Ashton. Should I expect to have a grandchild with you?" he asked Ashton with a smile.Cough! Cough!I was coughing because I didn’t expect his Grandpa to ask Ashton that question."Are you okay?" Ashton asked me worriedly. I immediately nodded to him to say
