THE HILARIOUS HUSBAND (LEE BROTHERS #2) のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

CHAPTER ONE: HOPE's IDEAL TYPE★HOPE RYKER LEE★HINDI talaga 'ko makapaniwala sa nangyayari. Me, Hope Ryker Lee—Mr. Confidence himself—reduced to a blushing mess because my own fiancée hasn’t even looked at me simula pa kanina sa church nang magsimula ang seremonya sa kasal ng kakambal kong si Faith at hanggang ngayon dito sa reception.Oo. Hindi pa naman kami magkakilala at ito pa lang ang unang beses ko siyang makita dahil si Mommyla ang nag-invite sa kaniya rito. Pero hindi lang naman siya basta bisita sa kasal ni Faith at Sugarpop. Inimbita siya rito para magkaharap kami at magkakilala.Pero wala—ni balingan ako ng tingin ay hindi niya magawa. Instead, she’s engrossed in conversation with a few other guests at her table, flashing that stunning smile of hers. And when she laughs—man, it’s like the whole room brightens up. While I’m over here, awkwardly trying to catch her attention, but she’s in her own world, completely oblivious to my existence.Dapat nga sana ay kami ang magkata

CHAPTER THREEWILD IMAGINATION★HOPE RYKER LEE★GAYA ng ipinangako ni Mommyla, nag-set siya ng isang family dinner ngayong gabi, dito mismo sa mansyon niya. The entire setting was carefully prepared—from the elegant table set with crystal glasses and porcelain plates to the flowers meticulously arranged in the center. The occasion was supposed to officially introduce Elisse and me to each other, pero hindi ko naiwasang mapaisip kung bakit nag-iisa lang siya na kaharap namin ngayon. None of her family members were present.Sabagay, nabanggit na sa 'kin ni Mommyla na namayapa na ang Mommy ni Elisse na siyang nakipagkasundo raw noon kay Don Adolfo, pati ang lolo niya, para i-match kaming dalawa. It was strange to think that a deal like that had been made so long ago, especially knowing that her mother was no longer here.'Yong daddy naman niya na si Vladimir Garcia, ibang usapan na 'yon. Hindi ko siya kilala nang personal, pero kilalang-kilala ang pangalan niya dahil sa mga balitang kuma

CHAPTER FIVEENCOUNTER PART II (ELISSE)❥ ELISSE GARCIA ❥The office is cold and impersonal. No matter how much I adjust the thermostat, the cold doesn't seem to reach the chaos inside me. I stare at my desk, my father’s words echoing relentlessly in my mind."Huwag ka nang mag-inarte, Elisse. Magpapakasal ka, sa ayaw at sa gusto mo!"The thought of marrying one of the Lee twins, Hope Ryker Lee, feels like a cruel joke that just won’t end. Kahit papaano, kilala ko na siya sa pangalan. Paanong hindi? Ang Lee Entertainment ang isa sa nangunguna sa industriya, at hindi lang ito—ang Lee Tower Mall, Lee Company, at ang Lee University ay ilan lamang sa mga sangay ng kanilang negosyo. The Lee name stretches into every corner of our world, and their influence is undeniable.Kahit na hindi ko pa siya kilala nang husto, his name is synonymous with prestige and respect. Associating with the Lee family seems like a boost of credibility you can’t ignore. Walang sinumang negosyante ang aayaw kapag

CHAPTER SEVENENCOUNTER PART IV (HOPE)★HOPE RYKER LEE★"Isang tanong, isang sagot. Were you two there to fvck?"She didn't answer. Her eyes locked onto mine, searching for something—maybe for the right words, maybe for a way out—but she remained silent.I let out a small chuckle, the sound dry and bitter, and a smirk tugged at my lips. "So, tama ako?" I asked, my voice laced with a hint of mockery.She stayed silent again, her eyes flickering with something I couldn't quite decipher. My smirk faltered for a moment. 'Tsaka ako nagbuga ng hangin, the sound almost like a dismissive "Pah," as if blowing away the frustration that was bubbling up inside me.Hinugot ko ang mga kamay sa harapang bulsa ng pants ko at humakbang nang dalawang beses para magkalapit kami nang husto. Napasinghap siya nang hangin, halatang nailang, pero hindi siya naglakas ng loob na umatras. Instead, tiningala niya ako para salubungin ang tingin ko."Kung ayaw mong magpakasal sa 'kin, sabihin mo lang. Mabuti na 'y

CHAPTER NINE: KITTEN ❥ ELISSE GARCIA ❥ “Mom, Dad, andito na ‘yong mamanugangin n’yo,” nakangising sabi ni Hope pagdating namin sa maluwang nilang dining. Hawak niya pa rin ang kamay ko at ayaw niyang bitawan kahit pasimple kong binabawi. Bumaling sa amin ang buong pamilya niya. Nakapuwesto sa upuan ang dalawa niyang kakambal at ang Daddy nila, nagkukuwentuhan. Sa kabilang banda, ang Mom niya at ang dalawang babae—si Poppy at ang bunsong si Summer—ay abalang tumutulong sa paghahain sa mesa. Even the housemaid in uniform paused, her eyes following our entrance. Hope’s mom flashed a wide smile at me. “Hi, Elisse!” she greeted warmly, placing the bowl she was holding onto the table and quickly walking over to me. ‘Tsaka pa lamang binitawan ni Hope ang kamay ko. Before I could say anything, Hope’s mom kissed me on the cheek, and I felt the warmth of her welcome. “Buti nakarating ka. Ikaw lang ba?” Lumingon pa siya sa gawing likuran ko na tila may hinahanap. “Hindi mo kasama ang family
