Chapter 32
S POV
I made it a point to construct Diamond Resort on the coastline of Oceanic
City in the area that was considered to be the most aesthetically pleasing.
The hotel had sole access to the most pristine beach in the neighborhood.
Even the most affordable option for a single night’s stay would set you back a
staggering two hundred and fifty dollars.
The following month’s first day would mark the beginning of the hotel’s public
operations. A week ago… in order to promote the event, I distributed dozens
of invitations to various people. Naturally, each and every one of these
invitations was handed out to the wealthy and well–known residents
scattered all over the city. Even though I invited some of my friends who live
in New York, only a few of them were able to make it.
When I and the rest of my group arrived at the resort, the influential people I NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
mentioned earlier were already beginning to make their way there for a
vacation.

On the ten–meter–long table, there were a variety of delectable dishes,
Including seafood consisting of lobsters, shrimps, crabs, clams, and many
other types of shellfish. In addition, grilled steaks and other dishes came to
Mind. Countless glasses of red wine were splattered on the table with a price
of one thousand five hundred dollars.
At this time… men and women were seen chatting and laughing together
while sitting side by side. To put it mildly, the scene was absolutely gorgeous
and lively. This business that my cousin Jake and I started has already begun
to show signs of success, and I couldn’t be happier about it.
I was observing the other people in the room enjoying themselves, but for
some reason, my thoughts kept going back to Celine. My gut instincts told
me that she’s not Jake’s girlfriend… But what if she is?
As the memory of what had happened earlier in the car came flooding bot to me, let out a heavy sigh. Because of the plane ride, Celine wasn’t feeling very well, so Jake kept checking in on her throughout the entire journey. It not sure why, but at that very moment… I felt something like a pit in my

stomach.
When Celine threw up on Brylee’s dress, I am positive that I saw a particularly
repulsive expression appear on Brylee’s face, one that I had never seen
before. Her expression made her appear… displeasing, not only in her
appearance but also in the manner in which she carried herself.
Suddenly, I found myself in a state of bewilderment. Is it true that Brylee was
as kind and gentle, a person as everyone said she was, and that she was
even kind to her twin sister?
When Brylee laughed at the other women’s teasing while she was sitting so
close beside me, it distracted me from the thoughts that I was trying to think.
I turned my attention to Jake, and he was looking at the wristwatch on his left
wrist and was about to get up when Brylee intervened and stopped him.
“Jake… where are you planning on going?”
As he looked at my fiancée, he stuffed his hands into the pockets of his
pants. “Let me just run over and see how Celine is doing…”

“Oh, don’t bother about her…” Brylee smiled and gesticulated with her hand.
“She must be taking a rest right now. Don’t worry… we’re going to see her
after a while and I’m sure that she will definitely be up by then…”
However, as soon as she finished speaking, everyone was stunned as their
gazes darted on the person who was walking towards our table, and they
began to murmur and whisper to each other to express their surprise. “Is
that, Brylee…?”
“No… it’s her twin sister. You know, the one all over the internet.”
“Yes, she’s the wild and bad sister…”
“Yeah… the sister who was almost disowned by her father…”
I was speechless for a few seconds as I watched Celine make her way
towards our table and smile at everyone. She was wearing an off–shoulder
yellow dress… her black hair was left cascading down on both sides of her
face… her skin as fair as cream.
All of the people’s voices stopped as they turned their attention from Celine
to Brylee and then back to Celine again as she made her way over to us
slowly and methodicoty
The appearance of the twin was identical, but once you looked closely, you
could tell the difference between them.
A provocative and alluring strapless white dress was what Brylee had on.
However, I am puzzled as to why I was experiencing such an odd sensation
as I looked at her sister. Despite the fact that her dress was quite plain and
not nearly as stunning as Brylee’s, my eyes were telling me that she’s
definitely the most beautiful girl here tonight. I noticed that Brylee’s face
darkened and turned serious as she stared at her sister, but then she quickly
put on a phony smile. What exactly is going on with her?
“Celine, come here…” Jake approached her as she was walking through the
lobby of the banquet hall and escorted her to our table, where he pulled out
a seat for her.
“I’m sorry, I’m late…” I heard her sweet angelic voice again, and I immediately
cleared my throat and shifted in my seat in response to what Celine had
said
litte
The people at the table resumed their murmuring and whispering after they
had been silent for a brief moment, and I noticed that they all had a frowning
expression on their faces. Her arrival didn’t elicit any favourable response.
She didn’t say anything else, but just smiled, and sat down in the chair that
Jake had pulled out for her.
When she looked up at Brylee, she smiled at her before shifting her gaze to

back to Jake, who was currently pouring red wine into her glass.
