7 Fake family

"Justin is my only hope... I will never give up. He must become my actor."

Nadine was determined, she will not lose easily. Marcell will get the payback, Marcell will regret who he played with.

"Ring ... Ring ..."

Who is it now? Nadine stopped the car again and picked up her phone call. Nadine's anger stopped when she saw who contacted her now.

"Yes, Daddy?" Nadine answered in a low voice.

"Nadine, come home tonight ... It's been a while since we had dinner together, right?" Said Marcell's father whose name was Simon gently. Nadine and Marcell already have their own homes so It was very rare for them to have dinner together so that their relationship was closer because until this second the distance between him, Nadine, and Marcell was getting away.

Nadine could not refuse her stepfather's request, as if she would also be scolded for humiliating his beloved son. Yes, a stepchild will always be treated unfairly.

"Okay, I'm going home tonight," Nadine replied.

"Okay, Daddy will ask the chef to cook your favorite dish. So make sure you come."

"Of course, I will come daddy."

Nadine sighed heavily after Simon turned off the line.

"Looks like there's no luck left for me today." Said Nadine frustrated.

Destiny? Could this be fate?

Justin slammed his body onto the bed, trying to close his eyes because of today's events he never imagined before.

Nadine ... He will never mistake the only woman he ever loved, maybe even until this moment he still loves her.

But why is Nadine acting like she doesn't know him? At first, Justin thought that Nadine was just pretending to surprise him but until the second when Nadine smiled slyly at him, That woman was not the former lover he had been missing.

If their faces are similar then why do they also have the same name?

"Oh, shit ... I shouldn't just leave." Justin regretted his actions which provoked anger because of Nadine's attitude, he should have been patient and searched deeper for Nadine's motives for pretending not to know him. Unfortunately, time cannot be repeated.

Nadine just realized that her cellphone screen was cracked because she slammed it this morning, even though she just bought it yesterday.

Bad luck always comes on the same day.

But there was no time for her to buy a new cell phone because it was getting late, she had to go home to her parents before it was too long Nadine doesn't like being late, she always comes on time.

"Look at you, Nadine... you are very beautiful but damn why only Marcell is approaching you? It would be nice if I had a lover then Marcell would probably give up making trouble with you to attract your attention." Nadine talked to herself while looking in the mirror. The sky blue dress she wore looked elegant with her hair hanging down straight.

"Oh I'm lonely and I hope I don't get scolded by Simon either ..." Nadine said as she reached for the keys of her car was on the table and went to the home of her parents.

"Good night, miss." The head waiter greeted Nadine's arrival. "Mr. Simon and your mommy are waiting for you. "

Nadine only smiled faintly, it's been almost half a year she did not come home and the condition of the magnificent house which was only lived in by Simon and her mother and some of the housekeepers still looked as lonely as before.

"You came too?"

Nadine turned to a familiar voice then stopped her steps for a moment.

"Of course, your Daddy told me to come, do I have the right to refuse?" Nadine replied curtly.

"You always have a million ways to reject me, but why are you so obedient to my father? He has given all his property to me so you should be nice to me and not him." Marcell said he didn't hesitate to grab Nadine's waist and corner her behind a pillar, hiding from the reach of a servant who could report to Simon at any time.

Nadine wasn't afraid, she smiled happily as she played Marcell's collar and looked at him seductively. "Unfortunately my mother married your father and not you so it's natural if I respect him more. And your property doesn't make me dazzle at all. I have what I have now all thanks to my hard work so my life doesn't depend on the property all you have, my dear Marcell."

"You can be proud now, but your company will be destroyed soon and you will come to me, Nadine ..."

"Keep on waiting because that day will never come," Nadine whispered before finally releasing herself from Marcell's embrace and walking into the dining room.

Marcell smiled, Nadine's warm breath made him want to have Nadine even more. He could not imagine if there was another man who had Nadine.

"Good evening Daddy, mommy ..." Nadine greets her warmly while alternately hugging Simon and her mother Nindy.

"Have you been waiting for me long?"

"No, we're still waiting for Marcell," Nindy answered.

"I'm here Mom ..." Marcell arrived and answered immediately.

Nindy was about to hug Marcell but Marcell ignored her and immediately sat in the chair right next to her father.

"Your favorite son huh?" Nadine whispered to her mother who looked frozen because Marcell made her feel embarrassed.

"Please sit down, we start dinner tonight ..." Simon ordered, Nadine immediately sat right next to Marcell, she was still annoyed with her mother who scolded her for Marcell without finding out what Marcell did to her company.

Nindy also ended up sitting right next to Simon's right, smiling awkwardly while trying to be calm.

"Is this a family bond? We all wear blue clothes." Said Nindy trying to break the ice while waiting for the appetizer to be served.

"I guess it's just a coincidence." Said Nadine, who again succeeded in making her mom quiet.

"I think we do have a bond. You and I..."

Marcell was crazy, he openly teases his stepsister in front of their parents.

"Yes, we are... You like what I like right? Like actors and actresses in my company even to their managers. But at least I have a lot of advantages because they all pay huge penalties to my company and who also likes traitors. I thank you for showing their real faces. You are indeed my sweetest brother."

Simon didn't look surprised by Nadine's words different from Nindy who didn't understand what her daughter was saying.

"What do you mean talking like that, Nadine?" Asked Nindy.

"Just ask your beloved son, didn't he just tell me what I have done to him this morning so he should have told you what caused it and it seems that my mom is so busy beautifying herself that she doesn't see any news in this country that only talks about me and Marcell. We are a very famous sibling now. Isn't that right Marcell?"
