“Get out!”A cold voice rang out, followed by the sound of glass shattering at her feet.Good thing Eloise had stepped back in time—otherwise, her pants would’ve gotten soaked. Luckily, she was wearing pants and not a skirt, or she might’ve gotten cut by the shards.She looked at the man sitting on the carpet near the bed, clearly irritated and disheveled—he was the one who had thrown the glass just to drive her away.Her new husband, Cosmo Dominguez.Originally, it wasn’t supposed to be Eloise who would marry him—it was supposed to be her sister, Elaine Lopez. But once the truth came out—that Eloise wasn’t really the biological daughter of the Lopez family—everything changed. She became nothing but an adopted child. She no longer held value in the family, and her parents stopped loving her.In the end, they decided to marry her off to Zedrix Montes, the illegitimate son of the powerful Montes family, as a way of repaying the Lopezes' gratitude for raising her for twenty years.But th

Cosmo’s brow furrowed at the last thing he heard from Eloise. The first two conditions were understandable. Since they were now married, it was only natural to act like a happy couple in front of others. Besides, as his legal wife, if the Lopez family disrespected Eloise, it would be like insulting Cosmo himself. It made sense for him to stand up for her.But the third condition—was Eloise already thinking about divorce? They had just gotten their marriage certificate, and she was already talking about ending it?Just like she’d said before, she only married Cosmo because she had no choice. She never wanted to do it in the first place. For Cosmo, marrying a woman he didn’t even like was frustrating. So of course, he also wanted a divorce. But what confused him was why Eloise was the first to bring it up.She beat him to it. It was like she couldn’t wait to get away from him. To Cosmo, that was a direct hit to his pride.He held back his irritation. “So if you want a divorce, should I

Eloise recognized the voice—it was Caroline Dominguez. She knew her well. Caroline was Elaine’s best friend and had once teamed up with her to bully Eloise.Caroline had assumed that Elaine would be the one marrying Cosmo, so she was shocked when she found out it was Eloise instead.Back when the Lopez family still treated Eloise as their real daughter, she was known for being smart and admired by many. People even called her “The First Princess of Tagaytay.” Even though Caroline came from the wealthy Dominguez family, she was often compared to Eloise, which only fueled her hatred.When it was later revealed that Eloise wasn’t truly a Lopez, Caroline didn’t stop mocking her. In her eyes, Eloise had lost all value without the Lopez name. She figured Eloise would end up marrying an average businessman at best, not someone from a rich family.What she didn’t expect was for Eloise to marry her very own cousin—Cosmo, whom she deeply admired.Caroline was furious. Her glare at Eloise was fi

Cosmo heard what Eloise said and immediately turned to her, a little surprised. Cosmo was someone who cared a lot about cleanliness. Even with wounds on his legs, he couldn’t go a day without taking a bath. Back then, a male nurse was assigned to help clean him up. But now that he had a wife—Eloise herself—Tania wanted her to be the one to do it, hoping it would help them grow closer.Eloise, however, had no intention of developing feelings for Cosmo. She knew their marriage didn’t have a solid foundation. It wasn’t something she dreamed of, and she had no plans of forcing a relationship that wasn’t built on love. All she wanted was to change her fate.Cosmo could barely believe what he just heard. “What did you say?”When he looked at her, Eloise’s ears turned slightly red from embarrassment. “Your mom told me to take care of you… She knows how particular you are when it comes to cleanliness, so she said I should be the one to wipe you down every night…”Without hesitation, Cosmo r

Zedrix was angry at his mother—for being shameless. She had a relationship with a married man, got pregnant, and gave birth to him, branding him with the shame of being born out of wedlock.He was angry at his father too—for pretending to be a model husband while secretly having another family on the side. The man couldn’t even give his children a stable, whole home.He resented Georgina Montes for being cruel. Even though she knew her husband had cheated, she chose to cling to her title as the legal wife and took it out on every woman he had an affair with—including Zedrix’s mother.To be honest, Zedrix was angry at everyone around him—including himself. He had long dreamed of taking down the Montes family.Back when Eloise was still his fiancée, she tried to fix the way he thought. But in the end, she realized he was just pretending to listen. He used her as a stepping stone for his own ambition.The trauma and emotional wounds he had carried since childhood didn’t just go away—espe

Eloise and Sasha were at a coffee shop. By the time they arrived, Sasha had already ordered her favorite coffee and cake.Even though they had talked about Cosmo over the phone the night before, it was clear that Sasha was still full of curiosity about him.Eloise and Cosmo hadn’t announced their marriage to the public. Only the Lopez and Dominguez families knew about it, and Sasha was the only friend Eloise had told.Sasha didn’t agree with Eloise’s decision to marry Cosmo—especially since she believed he was now completely useless.“They’re the ones who raised you, and yet they turned out that harsh? If they really want you to repay their kindness, why not let you marry a man who’s actually in a decent state?” Sasha said angrily.But Eloise remained calm, shaped by everything she had gone through in life. “If love isn’t part of it, it doesn’t matter who I marry. It’s all the same. I’m just doing what they asked of me.”Sasha was partly amused but mostly frustrated. “You’re just tryi

Aries and Sasha had been close friends since childhood—some would even say they were childhood sweethearts. But now, all that was left between them was frustration and resentment.This wasn’t the first time something like this had happened—Aries once again defended Lilian without hesitation, while Sasha ended up taking all the blame.Sasha was used to this, so she let out a sarcastic smirk. “Why should I apologize? Just because you told me to? Do you really think I’d listen to you?”She didn’t even listen to her own father—what made Aries think she’d listen to him?Aries’ temper flared even more when he saw how unaffected Sasha looked. “Sasha, you hurt someone and you won’t even apologize! What happened to your manners? Believe it or not, I’m telling your dad about this!”Sasha laughed, clearly unbothered. “You’re reporting me? Aries, how old are you? Just a small issue and you're already running to the adults?” She rolled her eyes at Lilian and mocked her directly. “You know what? Yo

He tried to stand up every single day. Just yesterday, when Eloise saw him, he tried again. But just like always, nothing happened—he collapsed on the floor in complete embarrassment.He went back to his wheelchair and slapped the armrest in frustration. Then he heard a woman’s voice say, “Don’t rush it, just take your time.”He looked up in surprise and saw Eloise. He quickly looked away and asked coldly, “Why did you come in?”Eloise replied innocently, “I knocked, and you told me to come in.”Cosmo didn’t respond. She was right—he did tell her to come in. But he thought it was Jiro, so his face remained emotionless.Eloise walked closer and noticed a piece of paper on the small table. Most likely, it was the prenuptial agreement she had drafted and sent through Jiro.Cosmo handed it to her without any emotion. “I added a few terms. Read it. If you don’t have any objections, go ahead and sign it.”As Eloise read through the document, she realized all the added conditions were in Cos

Eloise wasn’t naturally someone who took advantage of others, nor did she ever intend to use anyone’s weakness for her own gain. But in this situation—where Cosmo couldn’t even defend himself and looked like he was about to lose control over his own body—she couldn’t help but find it amusing.She slightly raised her chin and gave him a teasing smile. “Your mom’s backing me up, so why shouldn’t I give it a try?”Cosmo quickly rolled his wheelchair backward but ended up bumping into the wall. His expression shifted to one of frustration and helplessness—something he absolutely hated feeling.He stared at Eloise—red lips, fair skin, kind-looking face—but there was clearly something else behind that exterior.They had only been together for two days, and already, her true motives were starting to show?She wasn’t as innocent as she claimed. That whole act about not caring about his money or about him—what a lie.Cosmo took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. A mocking smile tugged at

Inside the black velvet box was a pair of cufflinks—simple yet elegant, adorned with blue diamonds. It was a quiet but luxurious gift.Beside it lay a small card, with a handwritten note in soft, free-flowing script. The signature at the bottom was marked only with the initials—CRD.If Caroline had given it, she definitely wouldn’t have included a card. Most likely, she just passed it on from someone else.At first glance, it was obvious how expensive the cufflinks were—a clear indication of how much the giver valued the recipient.Eloise said bluntly, “Those cufflinks are beautiful. They suit you.”They were simply left on the table, which was why she noticed them right away. But if it wasn’t meant for her to see, she knew it would’ve been better to pretend she hadn’t seen anything.Cosmo didn’t respond. Instead, his eyes fell to the flowers in Eloise’s hands—a bouquet of red roses and another of white roses.Noticing his gaze, Eloise smiled. “I passed by a flower shop and picked up
