Torn Between Twin Brothers - Chapter 62
Thirty minutes later, Ann finished speaking with her cousin. Eva agreed to accompany Arria, but she would have to leave to go to Paris for a fashion show after landing in Stonasia, which was good enough for Ann.
Eva is now an A-list actress in the Philippines and an international model, she’s so busy with her schedule, but she never said no to her whenever she asked a favor. She’s really grateful to God for giving her a loving family.
After hanging up, she went back to the living room.
When she arrived back in the living room, Sato and his entourage were gone and headed back to their villa to relax. Ashley and Andrea were the only ones there relaxing while drinking some refreshments.
Ashley looked up in Ann’s direction as she approached them.”So? What’s the verdict?”
“It’s good. I only called him as a formality anyway. Hahaha! I just don’t want him to feel as if I’m overpowering him. You know… The ego thing…” All three of them laughed out loud. Each one of them knew that their husbands were all the same. They loved their wives so much to the point of no return.

Ava was in her room downloading games into her laptop when Ann came in. She was so engrossed that she didn’t realize that her mother was right behind her chair.
“Hmmm, what do you think you’re doing, young lady?” Ava was startled hearing her mother’s voice right behind her. She dropped the tablet that she was holding in shock. “Holy cow!” She exclaimed.
She quickly closed her laptop and bent down to pick up the tablet that fell on the ground. Luckily, the floor was carpeted, and the tablet had a cover protecting it. So, no damage there.
“I only wanted to tell you that your sister is coming. Aunt Eva is dropping her off on the way to a fashion show in Paris.” Ann’s voice was softer now than earlier.
Ava was ecstatic to hear that her younger sister was joining them. She didn’t ask her parents about it when they arrived without Arria, but she was kind of disappointed in them for leaving her younger sibling behind while they were all having fun.
But now that she knew that Arria was coming, she was so grateful to her parents. She got up and swiftly hugged her mother. “Thank you, mom! I love you!” She then kissed her mother on one cheek.
Ann loved all her children dearly. She was also unhappy leaving Arria in the Philippines. However, since she wasn’t invited to the coming of age gala, they didn’t think that it was appropriate for her to come uninvited. So, she asked Sophia to take her shopping in Hong Kong.
Not until she heard her baby girl’s voice and saw her on the screen of her phone did she realize what they did was wrong. Especially when she saw Arria crying her heart out…
Just as the mother and daughter let go of each other, the door burst open, and Jeffrey came in with a shocked look on his face. He looked like he just ran a marathon and was still trying to catch his breath…

Jeffrey jerked Ava’s arms, trying to drag her outside to see what he brought him.
“Come with me!” He roared. He then saw his mother, who was glaring at him and about to say something, “Hello, mommy! Love ya! Mwa!” He said in a rush as he gave his mother a quick peck on her cheek before rushing Ava out the door to the living room. Ann followed them to see what was going on.
Pearl and Akira were standing with their hands covering their mouths while looking back and forth between James and Ashton when they came out. Both young men were wearing identical outfits while sitting on the couch with blank faces.
However, when Ava showed up… Ashton couldn’t help himself and smiled widely, showing two sets of straight white teeth while James, as usual, only slightly grinned, then went back to the stoic look once again. So, Ava knew right away who was who.
“What did you want me to see so badly that you dragged me out here while I was busy with something,” Ava said, pretending to be annoyed at Jeffrey.
“Sis, look at them! Don’t you see that we can’t tell who is who unless they wear different clothes?” Said Jeffrey anxiously while waiting for Ava to say something.
“What do you mean you can’t tell? I sure can. Let’s see…” She walked closer, acting as if she was checking them out. Once she was close enough, she stopped for a moment then went towards Ashton. “This is Ashton, and this is James.” She pointed last to James.
“Am I right?” She asked no one in particular and acted all proud with her nose up in the air.
Jeffrey shouted from where he was standing. “Is she right?”
James and Ashton simultaneously nodded their heads. Akira and Pearl both clapped their hands and went to hug Ava.
“Ava!!! How do you know?” Pearl asked excitedly. She couldn’t tell to save her life.
“They’re my older brothers, but even I wasn’t able to tell right away. Only after Ava showed up, that’s when I knew then who was who. Hahaha!” Bragged Akira while still hugging her future sister-in-law.
She was thinking that way because of the way the twins were acting. She still had no idea about the agreement.
After seeing everything that happened, Ann had a wicked smile as she bid the children goodbye to go back to their villa to rest before dinner.
She liked what she saw. It seemed that both boys liked Ava and that she was interested in them in return. When the time came, either one of them would do. The only thing that mattered to them anyway was to become one family eventually.
