"What the fuck was that?" Harvey cornered her older twin as soon as Hillary got out of her meeting room. Hillary seemed shocked. Her brows furrowed seeing her younger twin in the building. Harvey was not one to lay a foot on the Empire Hillary made, never set her foot on any of her sibling's luxury buildings. Harvey had a high pride but Hillary being graced with her twin meant business.

Hillary's brows furrowed as she signals her secretary to leave them be."I don't know what you're talking about, Vey." She says in a cold nasally tone and crossed her arms.

Harvey let out a dry laugh. "Don't coy with me, bitch." She slurred out as her rage boils up.

Hearing the offending word Hillary's face tensed up and her face hardened a little as she looks at her twin. "Mind your words." She warned.

"Mind your wife." Harvey said and looked at her from head to toe.

Hillary sighed as she pinched the temple of her nose. She tries to level her emotions. "What is this all about huh? Why are you suddenly spouting out my wife's name?" She starts, her voice was strict and it echoed in the halls of the building.

"You know after saving her from that panic attack you seem so entitled about your sister in law now." Hillary added as she crossed her arms again an raised her brows at her younger twin. She couldn't understand what was this sudden charge Harvey was doing to her.

"Archibald." Harvey just says the name and Hillary's expression goes to contemplated. Harvey knew she hit a nerve with that certain name.

Harvey clicked her tongue and laughed. "He's back here in this country, isn't he?" She said in a menacing tone. A tone of mockery irritating Hillary.

Hillary swallows a lump on her throat. "I don't know what you're talking about, Harvey." Her expression was unbothered. As if the name didn't have a sort of ring in it. Harvey could see right through her twin who was trying to play dumb with her.

Harvey took a great inhaled as she glared at Hillary. "Your fucking ex-fiancee, goddamn it!" Her voice echoed the halls and Hillary's shoulder tensed whilst she remained to have a stoic expression about what Harvey is trying to bring up.

"You were in his car. Yesterday." She confronts.

Hillary sighed and remained at her calmest demeanor."He gave me a ride home. It was raining. Harvey. You expect me to commute at a rainy evening?" She confesses her truth, she told Harvey the true reason to it but Harvey was more enraged with the answer instead.

"Yes! Rather than taking a ride in your ex-fiancee's car." Harvey stated and she placed her hand on her forehead, trying to level lher breathing. Hillary only kept herself quiet but as Harvey looked at her sister's stoic face a while ago, it changed into an annoyed one.

Harvey stopped seeing Hillary's expression but she took a deep breath before she asks again. "Does Nymph know about this?" She was concerned with her own twin but now it made her look back at how Nymph dealt with this.

Hillary got more irritated. "She doesn't need to. It's just one fucking time, Harvey." Her voice was cold as she tries to make a point with her words and Harvey shaked her head. She looked at her twin in pure disbelief.

"So you're hiding this from her?" Harvey realizes.

Hillary cussed and inhaled harshly. "No one is hiding a damn thing. She trusts me and I'm not going to ruin that trust." Hillary's tone was full of stress and irritation. She couldn't handle this argument as she felt utterly concerned by her own twin.

Harvey's face falls soft and hurt. "Then why can't you tell her who were you with before you came home to her?" She was concerned for Nymph.

Hillary swallowed and rolled her eyes as she finally snaps. "Why do you need to be concerned of our life huh? Can't you mind about your own, Harvey?" The woman's voice raised. She screamed power yet in a petty way. It was as if she was hiding something else and Harvey could only look at her in disdain.

"You know, you'll regret ever trying to lie." Harvey said with a shaky tone as anger rumbled in her soul but she takes a turn. She retreats, the sound of her combat boots againsts the tile. Hillary watched as her sister left the hall. She stood there with her own shadow standing and heaving. Hillary's ehyes reddened as she clutched her cellphone.
