Chapter 4

Smack!

My dad smacked my head slightly, something I got used to "you should be more careful Xavier, come on, follow aunt Zoey to eat" my dad urged

Before they could all drag me to the dinning table including Javier, my twin brother who looked exactly just like me, I said "I already ate something on the way" I raised the chip in my hand "you don't have to worry"

Mom "....."

Dad "......"

Aunt Zoey "..... "

Butler Victor "..... "

There was a moment of silence, and everyone was looking at me including my brother who widened his eyes in shock, I wondered if I was able to have that kind of expression in this life

What I didn't expect was

Snatch!

Smack!

Mom snatched the chips from me, and dad smacked my head again, I was eventually dragged to the dinning table

They busied their self with putting all kind of food in front of me, I thought I was going to be stuffed to death

"Everyone Javier has a girlfriend" I said

Javier "......"

Silence rang throughout once again, all eyes were now on Javier

"Xavier you snitch!!" he waved his fist in my face with a frown on his

They threw questions at him nonstop

"Guys calm down, I will answer your questions, not like this ... please one question at a time" Javier said

Mom:" what's her name? "

Dad:" when did start"

Javier:" her name's Hailey, last month"

" Javier we're having a talk after breakfast" mom said with a Stern gaze" yes mom" he replied" Good" mom ended the talk with that

I took a napkin and used it to clean my mouth after taking a few bites, I raised my head and said" everyone I have news, I'm quitting my job as the CEO of Smith group (Top one richest company in the country) and giving the responsibility to Xavier to take care of it in the future, and maybe I will take over again" I said

Silence filled the room for a while, then Javier said" is that possible, can he really do that, are you guys going agree to this stone-cold brother of mine, I'm not even thirty yet, I. I" nobody spoke, my mom said suddenly" enough Java" I looked at him and faced my mom back, my mom and dad stared at each other for a while as if using their eyes to speak

Although I took care of the company, me and Javier switch places sometimes, the world doesn't know we are twins, they only believed one the thing, only one son took care of the company

It all started like this, during mom's labor, she was in another country far away from here, they went for treatment cause my mom had a hard getting pregnant, there miscarriages as well, so they decided to go somewhere else to try and get help, fortunately she got pregnant and decided to stay there until childbirth, father went back to the country to take care of things more like my mother forced him, we grew up there until we were three, father would visit frequently to meet us, mother often asked if we wanted to go back, but we refused, although we were not as rich back then, I was the introverted one while Javier was the opposite, we both have interest in business, I decided I didn't want the outside world to know me I wanted to live a normal life as I did where I was born, my parents agreed to my request, we went back and mom got pregnant once more when we were five, our little sister Erna, she's studying somewhere abroad.

Back to the present, my mom looked at me and asked" why?"...." to work at a restaurant as a cook" I replied" do you even know how to cook, last time tried it was horrible as ever" Javier said "Javier" my mom said with a Stern gaze" I will learn, I have two wonderful chefs at home" I said" tomorrow I have to learn, I need the job"" Xavier we are rich already, don't you remember" Javier said" I know, I'm doing this for someone"

"Who!!"
