On the day of her wedding to her childhood sweetheart, Natalie Ford received an unexpected gift: a marriage certificate. It stated that she was already married to a complete stranger—Aiden Handrix. While the wedding guests continued to mock and insult her, her lover Ivan decided to dump her, choosing to marry her half-sister Briena instead. To add insult to injury, she was thrown out of her home. To prove her innocence, Natalie Ford could only take one course of action - she had to find this mysterious Aiden Handrix and get to the bottom of this! The next day, there was news trending on the TV. Justin Harper, the heir of the richest family in the Bayford was returning home. Natalie’s eyes narrowed at the TV screen. ‘Why does this man look exactly like the man in the picture of my wedding certificate?’ In the quest of uncovering the mystery behind her said marriage, she decided to follow him and ask personally. “Are you married?” “No.” “Do you have a twin brother?” “No?” “By chance you heard the name Aiden Handrix?” “No.” “Then, who the hell are you?’ “Your brother.” “Wait, what?” “Yes. Now pack your bags and come home with me.” First got a husband out of the blue and now a brother with the same face? Was god creating clones and offering them to her with different relationships?
Clearing her throat awkwardly, she dodged the question. "I was about to sleep..."
"While thinking about what I must be doing right now?" he interrupted smoothly.
She hesitated, feeling like a thief caught in the act. "Don't be so full of yourself. Why would I be thinking about you?"
He chuckled softly. "It's alright to miss me. I'm not going to object to it. In fact, I'm glad you are."
She frowned. "I said I'm not."
"I'll be back soon. So, bear with it even if it's hard," he teased.
"But I—"
"I miss you too."
Natalie fell silent, the words catching her off guard.
His tone shifted, becoming more serious. "I want to come back to you right now, but I have to wait a little longer. This lavish bed I'm in feels unbearably cold without your warmth."
Natalie's heart skipped a beat, leaving her momentarily speechless. She never had any man talking to her like this, not even in person, let alone on call.
