เข้าสู่ระบบLily Vance should be dead. Just on her wedding day, Lily finds out about her husband’s affair with her stepfather in the most bizarre way: receiving multiple videos of them having sex. After confronting them, they try to kill her and she’s forced to run for her life, and in the end she still got killed. After being framed publicly with embezzlement by her husband and stepfather who proceed to steal her mother’s company, she loses everything, even in death which she miraculously survives. To survive her monsters and get her revenge, Lily needs a monster of her own, so she signs a contract marriage with a mysterious billionaire and her ex-husband’s half-brother and the banished black sheep: Diego Rookwood. But as the dangerous proximity blurs the lines of their arrangement, Lily must face the tension that comes with being married to a tyrant so dangerous and sinfully handsome. A fake marriage. A fervent thirst for revenge…and a vortex of lust, anger and romance. What will Lily choose? Come and find out!
ดูเพิ่มเติมDiego's POV.Breakfast was easier this morning. The familiarity from the Vault last night still lingered at the dining table this morning, and everyone seemed rather informal and relaxed around each other.Aldric greeted Lily warmly when she sat down, helping her with the fruit juice which was far from her side of the table. Isadora then proceeded to ask her some questions about painting that pulled Lily into a ten-minute conversation I couldn’t not listen to, which was fine. I could listen to her all day.“…and I believe that the way an artist— ” Her words were cut short with a violent fit of cough.I found her back immediately, grounding her as I rubbed her back. My heart pounded in my chest for a moment, and I handed her a glass of water.“Are you alright, Lily?” That was my father. My eyes darted his way before I could control it. His eyes were slightly widened with what looked like panic but he quickly recovered as his eyes landed on me.“I’m fine, thank you.” She set the glass
Diego’s POV.Lily stilled for a moment, then she looked up to meet my father’s intrigued stare, before moving from face to face."Perrin's going to raise on the next hand regardless of what he has," she said. "He's been sitting on the same stack for minutes and it's bothering him more than he's showing." She glanced at Isadora. "Isadora hasn't touched her drink since the second hand, which means she has something she doesn't want to affect." She looked at Aldric. "And Aldric…you’re asking me questions to see if you can break my concentration, which suggests your hand is better than you've been letting on."The table went quiet for a second.When Aldric laughed, it was of delight. Lily had read him completely right, which meant she was right about all others, and he found it interesting unlike others who squirmed with embarrassment.“Diego! She’s a very clever one, your wife!” Aldric clapped as he looked at me. Something swelled in my chest as Aldric praised Lily.Her gaze found mine at
Diego's POV.“You don’t have to go.”Lily turned to face me while she adjusted her earrings.She looked stunning in this green dress, especially because it suited her. Everything did suit her, but this seemed like it was exactly for her. I couldn’t take my eyes off her.“Of course, I do,” she replied with a chuckle. “It’s my father-in-law’s birthday. It’s why he invited us.”I couldn’t tell whether she was being sarcastic or not.“Quick, help me with the necklace.” She waved me over to her side of the bed, and I moved to her immediately, looping my fingers around the necklace as I fixed it on her shoulder. When I glanced at her in the mirror, she mumbled a “Perfect!” while she leaned backward slightly into me, giving me a whiff of her beautiful shampoo.“Well, let’s go.” She stepped away, all giddy, and quickly grabbed her purse before leaving the room.Lily had been invited to the Rookwood Vault which hosted his important events, his definition of “important events” being gambling a
Lily's POV."Lily." Frank’s voice came from behind me. "I was hoping to catch you alone.""Were you," I said, turning around to face him. He gave a small, warm smile. "I just wanted to talk, if you have a moment."Well, isn’t this shocking? I thought. I nodded and followed him. He set the pace, leading me down the lawn outside the villa. I wasn’t sure of what he wanted to talk about, and although I wasn’t interested, I still loved me some entertainment, especially with Diego disappearing right after I woke up.He talked about Diego.How he'd always hoped Diego would find someone. That their history was complicated and he didn't expect me to understand all of it. That Diego had a way of making people feel like the only thing in the room right up until they weren't.I listened and said very little and watched him while listening.What does he want? That was the only thing on my mind while Frank spoke carelessly. Did Richard send him? To rattle me?Well, I sure was rattled, wasn’t I?He
