16 ANOTHER WAY/IDENTITY

EDUARDO' POV:

"I warned you but still have the guts to follow me here ?"

I snarled at her.

"Eduardo please don't say that, just try me."

She was consistently trying to woo me, almost pleading my love  !

"I made myself clear before Penelope. Now get out."

I growled venomously.

"Please don't do this Eduardo. I love you."

She started shedding tears.

I knew she truly loved me but what I could do I was in love with someone else__Camilla Hudson.

"But I don't love you."

I replied her once again calmly. I tried many times to pull her out from these emotions. But she was still living in that one-sided love.

"Oh ! Is this all because of this slut whose house you're living in?"

She wiped her tears and stated angrily.

But it was enough to listen this. How dare she insult my Camilla.

"Shut up Penelope. I said I don't love you. And moreover you're standing in my house. Our house. I'm a married person now."

Finally I told her the truth. I had to, she was going too far by insulting my wife in front of me.

"Oh please Eduardo don't play with my feelings by stating her your wife. I know you're only making excuses."

She came closer to me and held my arms trying to do a physical contact.

With blue eyes and blonde hair she was beautiful. Of course that's why she was an actress. With perfectly carved face and body she was exceptionally eye catching.

But still not compared with my Camilla. She was the only one that took my heart years ago. Her hazel-brown eyes that used to peek at me. Her chocolate hair she used to bind in a tail. And yes not to forget her rimmed glasses that guarded her beautiful eyes. She was mine, she is mine and she'll be.

"I'm stating the truth Penelope. I'm married and stop chasing me everywhere now. Just leave my house."

I growled loud at her.

Scaring her enough as she shut herself from screaming by placing hand on lips.

"I hate you Eduardo Diego."

She clearly stated and stepped out of the house.

"Yes you can do that."

I shouted from behind.

Don't know why this 'thing' popped up from nowhere in my house. When Camilla was about to arrive. I'd to shoo her before her arrival otherwise my cover would've blown. And she would find out my identity. Continuously I was thinking about her, how she'll react ?

How she'll behave ?

Will she understand me ?

Will she love me ?

If we're seen together.

I was worried for sure.

Meanwhile I tried to make myself calm n act normal as if nothing happened.

Sure my wife is quite a good observant to pull out anything.

I went up to washroom when I heard her voice. It took me a few seconds to reach downstairs.

She was looking beautiful as usual but my heart beat stopped for a moment.

She arrived just after 8 minutes and Penelope..... !

Sure she was on her regular time but what if she encountered her outside, my heart was pounding faster but I showed no trace of anxiety on my face.

I greeted her in my usual energetic tone. To my surprise she was normal. Which relieved all my tension.

CAMILLA' POV:

"Yes Mr Rhodes.

Okey."

I was standing on the terrace late at midnight.

The cool breeze brushed my cheeks. As my hands became cold too.

"Why ?"

My hands were shaking now because of what I was informed.

Yes, I suspected my husband.

But what I got was more shocking !

"Boss the information you sent me is not valid. There's no one named Ed living in that area you told us to visit, the residents have confirmed it too."

Mr Rhodes' information replayed into my ears.

I took the address from our marriage certificate but all was fake.

How could this be ?

"Who are you Ed ?"

I glanced back at the man who was laying peacefully, sleeping half naked.

I sighed once again releasing my tensions through breath.

Watched the moon and some random words played in my mind.

LOVE

SWEET MOMENTS

ED

Yes, I love him.

But something else clicked in my mind too.

PENELOPE  LA CRUISE

I dialed again to my PA.

"Anything about Penelope Mr Rhodes ?"

I almost forgot to ask him about her.

"No boss.

She isn't dating anyone.

But..."

He skipped and his voice trailed off.

Yeah he was sleepy and I was disturbing him in the middle of night. But he never complained. Or I'd say he never had the temerity to question or complain because of my fear. And now I was feeling guilty using my position even to disturb him at his hour.

"But boss she's rumoured to love Mr Eduardo Diego."

He carried his sentence further after yawning.

This hit my head hard.

"Okey Mr Rhodes.

Thank you.

Good night."

I thanked him and immediately ended the call so that he'd sleep now.

But my heart giggled after imagining his reaction. Sure he was shocked after listening these words from me___

cold hearted

Camilla Hudson. !

"Why she was here then ?"

I thought again and closed the glass frame which led me towards the terrace.

Pushed myself on bed and stared at the roof blank.

My mind was running, jumping from one thought to another putting every piece into a flow, starting from our first meeting I was rewinding everything for a clue.

Changed my side and my gaze skimmed on the handsome man who was sleeping besides me.

A mystery which was making me curious now.

Suddenly my eyes fell on his cell phone !

Wait he uses expensive cell phones from the start.

Yes I found another way to solve all this. Took my cell phone and despite of calling my PA again I texted him.You may have hid all things from me Ed. But I'd do everything to find the truth
