"Ben has a twin sister? I thought he only had a twin brother. Didn't you say you don't have a sister?" Dan asked Bella, who was looking at Joan with her mouth wide open.
Joan realised her blunder rather too late, "Ben here is very protective of his twin sister, so I suppose that was why he didn't tell you about her," Joan said, making Bella raise her hand to her head to massage her temple. Joan had just officially succeeded in ruining her life.
"So they are triplets?" Dan asked Joan, making Bella glare at her. The lies were becoming too much now. How was she supposed to explain to Dan that they were just twins?
Joan looked at Bella, waiting for her to give an explanation since she wasn't sure how much Dan possibly knew, but when Bella said nothing, Joan decided to step in and save the day, "No. They're just twins."
Dan frowned, "Really? But Kathleen met Ben's twin brother at the restaurant two days ago," Dan said, looking from Bella to Joan in confusion.
