Lennox’s POV They looked like a younger version of Diamond. But something seems to keep connecting me to those hazel eyes. Not just because of the rare eye lens, but these are exact copies of me. Even the curly hairs... Wait, why am I even paying attention to these details? People can have similar traits right? But... Could they be mine? Then I remembered doppelgangers exist. Even science has an explanation and knowing Diamond she won’t hesitate to exploit it. But they had to be mine. I didn’t know what to feel. First, I found out Diamond is not barren and now there’s a possibility that her boys are mine. It felt as if I was taking a junior resident exam having not studied prior to it. My brain couldn’t comprehend anything. I just stared at the boys in awe for the longest time. Luckily one of them spoke, pulling me out of my trans. “Is this him Jayden?” “Yes”, the little boy whom I’d met outside responded. I crouched to the eye level of the b

Diamond’s POV Lately the hospital reception has been my place of solace. Yes it’s filled with patients, some on the brink of death and others with one complication and malformation or the other.But it takes me away from my problems and to other people’s problems where I sort for ways I can help them.Moreover it’s been a major distraction for me this past week. So I decided to put on a smile today and focus only on my job.I walked into the Winthrop hospital smiling as I breathed in the fresh air mixed with the smell of amoxicillin and metformin.I headed to the receptionist’s desk where some nurses and a female resident were seated to ask about my class with the Harvard Professor. I got an email earlier saying that there had been a change of time. But that was the only information the mail gave so I came in at the regular time scheduled initially.The nurse at the desk was paging a doctor when I arrived so I waited for her to finish. She put down the telephone and gave me a w

Lennox’s POVDiamond had gotten stiff when I mentioned our kids being related. She didn’t utter a word for almost five minutes. I let the statement linger for a while before adding that our kids were cousins, but yet her shoulders didn’t relax. I had suspected the kids were Karl’s but I didn’t want to rule out the fact that they could be mine. Something about those boys just drew me to them. It felt like I was supposed to be spending time with them. So when Diamond tensed up at the mention of our kids being related, I got more suspicious.I didn’t want to make her uncomfortable but if there was any truth to my suspicion, I had to know.After a while, her shoulders relaxed a bit and she responded.“Yes, they are Karl’s so that makes them cousins. Sorry for zoning out, I was just thinking that it isn’t a good idea for our kids to meet let alone hang out considering our history and all you know”I didn’t know what I expected her response to be but it certainly wasn’t this. I mean that

Chapter 38Diamond’s POVI was surprised to see Agatha. I had purposely delayed my meeting in the Dean’s office because I wanted to avoid any chance that I could bump into her. I had a feeling she would be dropping off her daughter at school since Lennox would be at the hospital for a quick morning shift before our session with the professor. But I was wrong, it seemed wasting time had even increased my chances of seeing her. It took a while before Agatha saw me too and when she did, she mustered the most daring glare she could. It was almost as if we had a stare down contest going on. This gave me an opportunity to properly access her and I’m sure she did the same too.From what I could see, Agatha didn’t look like she was happy. There was this sullen aura around her in comparison to that which her daughter emanated and the surrounding too. It felt as if she was at the brink of unleashing hell on anyone who crossed her path. And I thought to myself that I wasn’t going to

Karl’s POVThe chef was running late.I had hired a Michelin chef from Italy just for my date with Diamond.I knew she liked Italian food so why not get it directly from the source.I was probably going a bit overboard, but come on, it’s Diamond and she deserves the best.I couldn’t wait to salvage the look on her face when she sees all that I had planned for her.Out of excitement I had forgotten to check the accountability of the chef. Apparently it’s not just about being a good chef, punctuality mattered too. I was new to all these. Donald was always the one setting up, making arrangements and calling who need to be called while I made the calls.I continued dialing his number and on the third ring he picked.“Where the he…”, I cleared my throat reminding myself that I had to be composed.“Where are you?”“I’m on my way, my team and I just ran into a little traffic.”I wasn’t concerned about what delayed him I just wanted to know his exact location.“Where exactly are y
