Chapter 2

Wesley and I were identical twins.

He majored in Theater Arts while I studied Economics in college.

He became Margaret's personal assistant, and Margaret immediately offered him the position during his senior year audition.

I was just a stand-in boyfriend for billionaire heiress Victoria. Right after graduation, Victoria claimed me in an underground parking lot when I went for a job interview.

We both grew up in an orphanage, and our incredible stroke of luck came from looking precisely like Evan.

For three years, we've been living the high life without any financial worries.

As a top celebrity, Margaret naturally had to maintain her public image.

Victoria is a different story altogether.

As the sole heiress to a billion-dollar fortune, she was a wild beauty with a temper, and anyone who crossed her path would regret it.

We thought life would just continue this way indefinitely, but things have changed.

Evan, who once stubbornly refused any financial support from Margaret, had returned.

After life beat him down overseas, he's given up on the struggle for success.

Now he was back, planning to choose between two golden tickets—the A-list celebrity or the billionaire's daughter to secure an easy life for himself.

"Back at the gallery, he told me that Margaret would give him everything he needed with just a snap of his fingers. Let alone something as simple as getting rid of me. Look how quickly he made it happen. I wouldn't care much if it was just about getting fired, but Victoria isn't someone you want to mess with. What if she decides to throw both of us into the river?"

The memory of Victoria driving someone insane with her bungee jumping stunt sent me chills.

It all started when someone called me a gold digger. Victoria had them tied up and forced to bungee jump by the river. The next day, they ended up in a mental hospital, babbling like a lunatic.

"God, I'm just Evan's stand-in for crying out loud. If Evan decides to turn against me next, will I make it out alive? He's the one who grew up with her, after all. We need to get out of here, like, right now!"

After our discussion, we headed home separately to grab our cards and withdraw cash for our escape plan.
