Xaviera stared at her cell phone a few times, waiting for the person who had just called her to call back because she had tried to contact that person but couldn't."Why isn't she calling me back? Is she just trying to make me panic?" Xaviera continued to stare at her cell phone. A few minutes later, when none of the calls came in, she decided to see her boyfriend. She felt that he should know about this."I have to meet with Ken right now. Our position will be jeopardized if my twin sister tells everything to my father-in-law, especially if Elizabeth says we are twins. I don't want anyone to know about it."Xaviera prepared to leave, but before that, she called Ken first."I want to go to your apartment. I have something important to tell you." Xaviera said."What news do you have to tell me? Can't you say it now? Our position is not safe right now. The reporters have already started looking for my identity, and they even chased me earlier to get the latest information on our scandal
Ken returned to his adoptive father's house, and he wanted to ask Sebastian for reassurance when the plan to destroy the Duke family began.Arriving there, Ken crossed paths with a man he knew very well, but they had only met briefly."Ethan? You came to see Dad, too?" Ken asked.Ethan, who heard Ken's question, immediately gave the man the code to be quiet. "Don't speak too loudly," he whispered.Ken nodded. He invited Ethan to chat for a while, only for the man to refuse. "Alright. Let's talk another time when you're not busy.""Yes. Hurry up and meet Mr. Sebastian. He's been waiting for you since before."Ken smiled slightly as he watched Ethan walk away from him. He relaxed his tense posture, as he seemed to be able to guess what would happen next just by watching the man's departure after meeting his father."Dad," Ken called out to Sebastian, who seemed lost in thought."Ken? Are you here yet?" Sebastian asked, which was immediately answered with a nod."I'm sorry for coming lat
Will began to perform his duties well. He couldn't evade or refuse the task that Charles had given him because his boss had been watching him since before.Two hours he was passed, with no results obtained by Will. Although he failed, he was happy that his identity was not revealed."I'm sorry, boss. I couldn't get any information about your brother. It's possible that Lady Elizabeth lied to you to trick you into not bothering her anymore." Will said. He wanted to give a new opinion to make Charles forget that he had an older brother."There's no way Elizabeth deceived me. What would she do that for?" Charles expressed his curiosity."It's possible. We still need to find out whose side Lady Elizabeth is on. She could be favoring Ken, Xaviera, or whoever else we don't know. She didn't confirm that she was on our side, right?"Charles nodded. "You're right. I should have investigated Elizabeth's personality first before meeting her. We had never met before, and suddenly, she told me I h
Elizabeth adjusted the mask she wore, remembering the hat she wore so that no one could recognize her out there.Elizabeth peeked behind the curtains with slow steps, ensuring no one was watching her."Looks like it's safe," Elizabeth muttered.She checked the neighborhood once more, then exited her house after the taxi she had ordered had arrived."To Cambodia Street, sir. Black Swan Cafe." Elizabeth mentioned her destination, to which the taxi driver nodded.The taxi started moving from slow to medium speed. There was no need to wait long. About 30 minutes into the trip, Elizabeth sat in one of the cafe chairs."Why is he taking so long? Did he make me wait on purpose?" Elizabeth snorted in annoyance. She glanced at the watch she was wearing, it was already 15 minutes past the promised time, but the person she was waiting for had yet to show up."CK, five more minutes, that man doesn't come. I'd better go." Elizabeth cursed the man who deliberately made her wait.One of the things E
Rose observed Elizabeth's every move, from her anger at a man who looked like a bodyguard to her departure to the VIP room to her exit an hour later."Who exactly did Elizabeth want to meet? She looks very suspicious." Rose muttered. She was still watching from a distance, and she sharpened her vision even more when she saw Elizabeth walking out of the cafe and getting back into the taxi.Rose, who saw that, immediately followed the taxi carrying Elizabeth. "Is she not going anywhere after this?" she said after seeing the cab heading towards the woman's house.After Elizabeth returned to her house, Rose stayed nearby. She didn't want to lose any information, especially after she saw with her own eyes when she met someone who must have power because there was no way the person Elizabeth met was just ordinary. Rose could conclude this by seeing the bodyguard who had led Elizabeth into the VIP room.For a long time, Rose was there. She kept watching the house, which had not seen any acti
Charles really couldn't believe his vision right now. He didn't understand what was going on."Didn't Ken have a relationship with Xaviera? Then, why is he hugging Elizabeth? Do the two of them have a special relationship? But how could this happen?"Charles shook his head several times, trying to get rid of the image of the two figures he saw in the photo. "One moment." He picked up the cell phone that had just fallen onto the table. The picture he had just seen was enough to make his hand tremble to the point of being unable to keep the phone in his hand."In this photo, Ken looks very young. I see. It looks like the woman in this photo was Xaviera before she changed her face. I'm sure. Yes, I'm sure." Charles spoke to himself. He decided that what he saw was Xaviera, not Elizabeth.This time, Charles focused again on another photo of his father and mother and the figure of a boy who looked very similar to his father."So, he's my older brother? Does that mean Elizabeth's words are t
"Seriously, sir? Is it possible that Ken has a relationship with Elizabeth? Didn't that guy have a special relationship with Xaviera too? Is he dating those two sisters?" For the first time, Will showed a shocked expression in front of his boss."That's what confused me, Will. At first, I was sure that the one in the photo was Xaviera, and the photo was taken when they were both very young. But how could Xaviera accuse Elizabeth of flirting and even trying to snatch her lover if the photo's contents were a lie?"As Charles and Will discussed the possibility of the woman in the photo, whether it was Xaviera or Elizabeth, Charles' cell phone suddenly rang.As he stared at his phone screen, Rose's name was displayed."Why?" Charles asked Rose after answering the incoming call from his bodyguard."What?!" Charles gasped in shock. He glanced at Will and then asked Rose to continue his surveillance.After disconnecting the call, Will immediately asked, "Why, Boss? Did Rose report anything i
"You're right, Charl. No one knows where your brother is right now. On that bloody night, your mother and father shared the task of saving you both. Your father was in charge of getting you as far away as possible because your mother was sure that the mobsters would find you and hurt you so that your father would give himself up." Michael sighed, his eyes darting far and wide as he recalled the testimonies of several people who had witnessed the incident."Your father took you away from the hospital while your older brother was with my mother, who had just given birth. Since your older brother was already around two or three years old at the time, he could comply with his mother's request to hide in a place where the hospital nurses used to bring the sheets and blankets requested by your mother.""Since your parents are special patients who have more access than VVIP patients, the hospital nurses will serve your mother very well and grant her requests as long as they do not hurt her.
