The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

“What’s the matter?” Ethan walked to the fridge and took out a bottle of chilled spring water. He had the habit of drinking chilled beverages all the year round.

He unscrewed the cap and said in confusion, “If you have something to say, you can just say it.”

“I saw Brandon Larson today,” Janet said. She pinched the edge of the couch cushion nervously. Although she really wanted to question Ethan, she couldn’t help but feel intimidated by him.

“And then? What happened?” Ethan closed the fridge door and leaned against it. He raised his head and looked straight into her eyes.

He crossed his arms over his chest. The fitting gray sweater hugged his muscles perfectly.

After due thought and consideration, she said, “The two of you look perfectly alike. Tell me the truth… Are you and Brandon twin brothers?”

This was the only viable explanation she could think of. They looked exactly alike and Brandon did seem to treat her a little specially compared to others. Perhaps this was the case because Brandon knew all along that she was his sister-in-law, and he was doing it for his brother Ethan.

Janet couldn’t help herself and continued to develop a narrative in her mind. She thought that perhaps they were twins, but they were forcibly separated from each other and had to live separate lives from that point onwards.
