Ella waited until the children were to put bed on the second floor and the men went into the study to catch up on old times,before dragging Cassie into the kitchen with Ansela trailing behind them.

"Sit." Ella pointed to one of the kitchen stool and waited until they were both seated before talking. "Why did you come here Cassie?"

Cassie frowned at her. "What do you mean? Are you trying to tell me that I can't come and visit Will,if I wish to?"

"No,not that." Ella combed her fingers through her hair,all the while containing her anger. "I know that Annie here,asked you to come."

"I didn't." Annie protested from where she was sitting.

Ella eyed her before turning back to Cassie who had a smirk on her face.

"I told you just last week that I would come to Philly,didn't I? So here I am."

"I thought you said that you are coming next month?" Ella eyed her suspiciously. "What suddenly changed?"

"Schedule." Cassie lied smoothly without batting an eye lid. "Enough talk about me,so what's up? Are you enjoying your time here?"

"Yes." She lied too. "I am so happy that you are finally here. And oh, I made a new friend. You'd completely love her."

Ansela smirked."more like him." She mumbled.

"Is there something you are not telling me?" Cassie's gaze went back and forth while she tried to figure out what she missed.

"Nothing." Ella threw Ansela a warning look. "By the way Cassie,you look so tried,are you okay?"

Cassie got on her feet and stretched her sore body. "Yeah. Just feeling jet lagged among other things."

Ansela and Ella exchanged a knowing look before their gaze rested on a blushing Cassie.

"You're up the duff again,aren't you?" Ella beamed at Cassie.

"Yeah,but Kaden does not know yet." Cassie returned their smile. "I just found out last week and I know that he would cancel this trip if he knew."

"If I knew that what?" A masculine voice inquired from the doorway.

All three heads turned towards the doorway. Each woman had their own expressions. Cassie's look was that of surprise, Ansela looked amused while Ella looked a little bit flustered.

"What was that sweetheart?" Kaden walked into the room and stopped in front of Cassie with an slightly curious look on his face.

Ella smiled to herself when Cassie turned red and stood there with her mouth opening and closing like a fish.

"She's pregnant again." Ansela finally broke the silence that had descended over the kitchen.

Kaden's face filled with love and adoration. He scooped his wife into his arms and kissed her soundly on the lips. All the while,Ella was watching William,who stood in the door way staring at the couple with longing in his eyes.

Her heart squeezed as she remembered when he told her that he was still in love with Cassie. He wasn't lying back then. It was all there on his face to see. Why was the universe so wicked? Why did she have to go on and crush on someone who was in love with another?

I have a crush on him.

Ella's eyes widened and a soft gasp escaped her lips. She knew all along that coming to work for him in the first place was a stupid idea. William liked blonde women not dark haired women like her. It was really obvious in his doings and taste.

"Ella?" Someone tapped her on her shoulder.

A scream left her lips and she jumped in the air in fright. Humiliation filled her when she saw that everyone was staring at her with a concerned look in their eyes.

Her eyes darted to the doorway of their own accord. William was staring at her with a natural look on his face. Cassie cleared her throat and Ella turned her gaze to her.

"Are you okay? You spaced out there for a minute." Kaden gave her a worried look.

"I'm.." That came out squeaky. She cleared her throat. "Yes,I am. Just feeling so tired. See you tomorrow." She hurried out of the kitchen before anyone could say another word.

"I am supposed to be the one feeling tired." Cassie murmured to Ansela,who shrugged in response.

Kaden let out a yawn. "Come,my tired wife. Your lovely bed awaits."

Cassie giggled. "William, you don't mind us going to bed early do you?"

William shook his head before walking away.

"There's so much gist,but that would have to wait until tomorrow. Bonne Nuit." Ansela told the as she too walked out of the kitchen.

"What's with your sister and the French accent? We are in Philly for Christ sake."

"I don't know nor do I care." Kaden led her out of the kitchen. He waited until they were at the bottom of the stairs before scooping her up into his arms. "All I am concerned about is my wife and baby."

Cassie laughed all the way upstairs,not aware of the two people watching them from different corners of the house; one wishing that she finds someone who would make her happy.

The other one out of pure jealousy.

~*~*~*~*

"Where are you coming from by this time,Mandy?"

Mandaline was about to sneak up the stairs when the person spoke. She changed her mind and faced her sister with a smile on her face.

"Who are you? My mother?" She rolled her eyes.

"I know where you went to today,how can you use my name just to go out with Mr Mckade?" Mandalena inquired with anger in her voice.

Mandaline smirked as she sat down on the stairs landing. "How can I not? Everyone knows that you had a crush on him when we were little,I'm just trying to seize the opportunity."

Mandalena crossed her legs on the leather chair she was sitting on.

"If I remember correctly, you were the one who had and still have a crush on him." Lena accused. "You only used my name. And you used my sickness to your advantage,just to get closer to William."

"I have to admit that it was fun." Mandy got up and walked over to where her sister was sitting down. "If you do as much as tell William that you are Mandalena, I won't spare you. You know what I can do right?"

Lena nodded.

"Good. I need to get some sleep Lena,and while I'm at it,think of a new plan that would get me closer to him." She walked to the stairs with a smile playing on her lips. "I want that answer by tomorrow night. Oh, and keep your freakish nature when next we see Will, would you?"

Tears ran down Lena's cheek as she watch her evil twin disappear out of sight. Ever since their tenth birthday,Mandy made her life a living hell. If Mandy did something bad,Lena would take the blame for it,which always got her in trouble most of the time.

Like back when they were in fourth grade,Mandy had been caught kissing a sixth grader in the janitor closet and she was suspended, but because no one could tell them apart so easily,Lena was the one who served suspension and got grounded for weeks while her evil twin enjoyed.

You must be wondering as to why she didn't do anything,right?

Well that's because Mandy knows a secret about her that their parents must never ever learn about. So to keep Mandy from rattling her out to their parents,she must do what she wants. Which is why she,on Mandy's orders,was pretending to be Mandaline,when truly she was Mandalena.

Thanks to her sister,Most people believe that they were evil and wicked,when really it was Mandy that was the evil one. Lena wished that she could tell William that she was the real Mandalena with bipolar disorder, while her sister was Mandaline,the evil twin.

But unless,she wants to see her sister's wrath,she would have to shut up and watch from the sideline.

Or maybe, just maybe,that dark haired girl Mandy forced her to attack that other day in William's office would help her stop her sister before it was too late?

"Well, there's only one way to find out."

------------------------------------------------------

*sighs and gulps*

I thought that I should twist this a little and there it is.

So we all know now that Mandalena,or should I say, Mandaline isn't really who she claims to be.

It turns out that one is evil while the other Is not. Such a pity when people judge others without really knowing the whole story.

I feel so bad for the real Lena.

On the bright side, Cassie is pregnant, again, and they arrived earlier than planned. I'm so excited.

Me: *Gets out matching making book and grins in a evil way*

Anyways,which is a way, see you next chapter.
