Substitute Wife For The Blind CEO

Chapter 76: Stay Gone

Though Eliana felt like knocking the hell out of Ivy’s head so that she’d shop acting like she didn’t remember what she did, Eliana let it go, instead simply deciding to have it out with the selfish Ivy.

"You barely looked at me. Said everything was fine in that fake, forced tone. Like I was just another nosy guest instead of your best friend." Eliana turned to face her, eyes burning with frustration. "And then, nothing. No calls. No texts. You won’t even take mine or return my texts. You ghosted me, Ivy!"

Ivy bit her lip. She didn’t expect this kind of anger from Eliana, and now she didn’t know how to fix it. ’Damn Ruby!’ how could she have treated Eliana that way?

This explained why Stefan seemed genuinely surprised about hearing her say Eliana’s name. What was Ruby thinking? Ivy thought as she tried to think of how to get Eliana to be less upset.

"I honestly don’t remember that day, Eli," Ivy said quietly. "I don’t because that day.... it wasn’t me you saw or spoke to," she said deciding to tell her the truth.

Eliana frowned in confusion. "And what the hell are you talking about?"

"I’m saying it wasn’t the one who saw you that day," Ivy said, trying to keep her voice calm. "That was Ruby."

Eliana blinked. "What do you mean Ruby? How can she be with your husband while even pretending to be you? Please make it make sense ’cause it doesn’t make any sense right now," Eliana said in frustration.

"What I said is that the person you saw the day you came whenever that was, was my twin sister. And she wasn’t just pretending to you. She was actually pretending to be me to everyone including—especially Stefan." f\r(e)ewe.b no\vel.com

Eliana stared at her, confused. Ivy saw the confusion on Eliana’s face and took a deep breath.

"Here’s what happened. I ran away on my wedding day," Ivy said with a resigned sigh. "I couldn’t go through with it. My mom and Stefan’s mom made Ruby step in and marry Stefan. So she did and went home with him as me. That’s who you saw."

Silence hung between them for a moment as Eliana tried to process everything she’d heard.
