The wrong woman

Chapter 2

"How is this possible. "Ricco muttered

"Listen Sir... "

"Ricco" he interjected.

"Ricco. Clearly you have me mistaken for someone else. Now you said something about a flight and a nine hour flight... "

"We are in Italy. "

Cassy's eyes popped open. Last night she was in Chicago. How was this even possible? Am entire flight to a different country! She normally slept like a log, but this was extreme even for her. He mentioned a private jet, which explained how the journey was that easy.

"Where is my phone "she asked and he handed it to her.

"It kept ringing, I figured you needed the rest. A Daisy kept calling. "

"Oh, my traitor friend who collaborated with a stranger to kidnap me. "

"I did not kidnap you. You said nothing... "

"Are you joking? I clearly remember saying am not Sophia. "

"I assumed you were drunk. " Ricco said and she sighed.

"Fine. I have a job to get to, so seeing that you have a private jet, take me back home. A mistake happened, no need for the back and forth. "

"You cannot travel today. "

"Why exactly. The weather seems fine to me

"I have a gala event tonight. You are coming. I initially thought my girlfriend was away, but when I brought you home last night, I added you.... Sophia to the list. "

"You can say something came up and she can't come. "

"Look, we canceled her attendance at first when the family issue came up. I then changed that again to include her last night when you showed up. Am not about to look like a fool infront of my colleagues. You are going with me to the event. "

"And do what exactly. "

"Smile and nod" he said and Cassy was appalled by the arrogance of this man. " look, after that, you can leave... Maria! " he called and an elderly woman came. They spoke in a language she guessed was Italian. She could see the old woman's expressions of shock, amusement and disbelief.

"Maria will help you get ready. "Ricco said and left.

"Bellisima. "

"Sorry? "Cassy turned to Maria.

"Oh, English. Beautiful. You are beautiful." Cassy smiled back at the compliment.

"Thank you Maria. "

"What is your name?"

"Finally someone who cares.. Cassy. " Cassy said and Maria laughed.

Well Cassy, Ricco is just a bully... And slow. I mean, I can see a resemblance, but why would he not know you are not the same person from a woman he has been dating for almost an year,... Here. " Maria added handing Cassie her phone.

Sophia. She was amazed. Her hair the same brown, but shorter. Eyes were a pale grey unlike her brown ones. Eyebrows more fuller but also neater.

"Wow"

"I know. Many people might not tell you apart, but close family should know. "

"Boyfriend you mean"

"Yes. "Maria smiled. "He says your friend sold you out."

"Oh s**t! " Cassy completely forgot she was supposed to call Daisy. "Sorry. Can I make a quick call? "

"Sure. You have four hours before you leave. I will be in the kitchen. I made something for you."

Maria left and Cassy sat on the couch. She made a quick call to her assistant at the floral shop. Called back her mum who was asking to do lunch. Saved Daisy for last.

"Finally! I came by your place and didn't find you. Why haven't you answered your calls. I was scared for a minute. "

"You let me leave with a stranger Daisy. Are you serious? "

"Ricco Guliano. "

"You know him? "

"You don't know Ricco! Italian billionaire, owner of the Guliano luxury watch brand, ... "

"No...this is the owner? "

"Yes. Look babes, I wouldn't let you leave with just anybody. He has too much to loose I knew you were safe. " Cassy shook her head. They spoke the for a few more hours. Cassy explained everything to her friend who googled the famous Sophia, they laughed at the situation and by the end of the call she felt light hearted. Trust Daisy to make everything feel okay.

The next two hours were spent on glamming her. Gowns arrived, she made her choice. Maria insisted on tying her hair up. Something to do with making her look more like Sophia. She did her make-up and the chauffeur was sent to pick her.
