Twins?

Cedric stayed quiet for a while after hearing Brione's sentiments. Meanwhile, Brione tried to sneak glances at Cedric while eating and compare the similarities of his build and face. All his physical characteristics were the same as Gavin's.

After a few minutes Cedric started speaking, "You're right and I won't deprive you of your own choices and will let you do as you please, so stop frowning and eat. I know my boundaries so you don't have to worry. I promise that I will not do anything that you would not like or anything that will be against your will."

Brione did not respond so he added, "You have to be my woman in the eyes of the public. I need your help to clear out all the rumors about me. It's getting annoying already," but at the back of his head his intention was to make Brione fall for him. He knew he had to take baby steps just like Will suggested so as to not freak her out.

So he was trying his best to rephrase the sentences he wanted to say as much as possible, making it sound friendlier and not too aggressive.

Brione's eyes narrowed. She was still not completely convinced but then recalled Berry talking about the Prince being cursed.

"You mean the curse of kissing? So you want me to pretend to be your woman?" Brione questioned in disbelief.

Cedric met Brione's eyes and replied with a serious face, "Who said I want you to pretend? I actually want you to be my woman."

"Why me of all women?! Ahh is it because you know a secret of mine so you want to use it to blackmail me?"

"Hmm, well knowing that secret of yours is kinda like a blessing in disguise for me. But to answer your question about why you, it's simply because I like you."

Brione's face reddened. The man was too straightforward, unlike Gavin who used to hesitate so much that it would become frustrating.

But then this Prince was just as annoying as he was straightforward.

"You look pretty when you blush," he commented before biting into his bread.

Thankfully Brione had nothing in her mouth yet, otherwise, she would have choked after hearing him. She immediately drank a glass of water to clear her throat. She was aware that her cheeks were burning red in embarrassment so she ignored him and put her head down to start eating.

"Since your shooting will start tomorrow, let's take a tour of the island today. I'm sure you will enjoy all the good places and the scenery here. I will also take you to places that are not open for tourists. After our breakfast, I will pick you up from your room in an hour. Wear something comfortable for walking..." Cedric said.

Brione pursed her lips and mumbled, "Do you plan to leak it? That Brione Yu is your woman?"

"Yeah… To make sure no one will covet over my person," Cedric answered.

'Did he mean I'm his person? Hmph, for all I know you just want to protect your image and wipe out the rumor!' Brione thought with a slight frown on her face. Her blood pressure was rising again so she had to inhale and exhale quietly to relax herself.

Once again, she would let things slide for now because she has her own agenda.

"You said, I can freely inspect your body if I agree to your condition right?" Brione suddenly questioned seriously for a moment before she focussed on eating.

"Yes… You can do it anytime you want," Cedric answered.

Seems like his Bri was still not convinced that he wasn't Gavin. It is a cunning move from her but he would use it to his advantage and get closer to her. He himself could not comprehend why he was willing to do so much just to have her as his woman.

'Smitten.' That was what Will said.

He was smitten by the superstar. He was not fond of watching movies or television dramas at all. He actually preferred reading books over movies but ever since he got Brione's profile and came to know about her career, he started binge-watching all her movies, tv dramas, interviews, special appearances, and her performances on stage.

She was very good at everything and he was glad he didn't see her doing intimate scenes such as kissing other men on screen. Now he understands why it's because she has a fear of kissing…

He stared at her lips which she happened to lick at that exact moment because of the sauce. Those lips, he will make sure that he would be the only one who could kiss those lips.

"Stop staring at me! It's uncomfortable. I'll get indigestion…" Brione complained, making him chuckle.

That was the first time Brione saw him smile. It was so much like Gavin's that she stared at him longingly.

Cedric noticed her change in expression and understood what she was thinking. Immediately his expression changed into a frown. He hated it whenever Brione would look at him as if she was seeing another man in him. He wanted her to look at him for who he was and not because she saw the shadow of another man in him.

"So about that Gavin. Do I look a lot like him? What part of my face resembles him for you to react that way," he asked in the middle of their breakfast.

"You're him. You're Gavin," Brione plainly answered. Cedric could not help but stare at her. She sounded very sure and confident.

Brione raised her chin and met his gaze. She lifted her brows and said, "Search Gavin Wu on the internet and you'll see for yourself."

Cedric grabbed his mobile phone and searched the name Gavin Wu on the internet. Brione drank her milk on the table as she observed the Prince's expression.

He was frowning as his finger tapped and scrolled his mobile phone. He looked dumbfounded and Brione took this opportunity to stare at his face closely. Even his dumbfounded expression was like Gavin, just that Gavin rarely does the frown but everything apart from that looked so similar.

"We really look like twins huh," Brione heard him utter nonchalantly.

'Twins? Could it be that they are twins?' Brione wondered. It did not occur to her that it might be a possibility.

But Gavin was an only child!
