Masquerade

She was masquerading as a beauty queen; of course she was a ravishing beauty.

He too was masquerading as a multimillionaire playboy and there was no doubt that he was a playboy.

She believed she was clever enough to seduce this rich but foolish playboy. He too believed that he was smart enough to win a beauty queen.

He thought he would not have to kill her; ‘no more killings,’ he said to himself.

She thought that now she could turn a new leaf and settle with this silly person.  

He was caught when he was dreaming of proposing to her, unaware that she had already been arrested the previous night.
