One Too Many Red Flags
"Ms. Harris, you're already six months pregnant. The baby is fully formed... Are you sure you want to go through with the abortion? The hospital strongly advises against it." The doctor said hesitatingly.
Phoebe Harris instinctively placed a hand over her swollen belly.
Six months. The child had grown inside her, from something no bigger than a grain of rice to the size it was now.
They say a mother and her child share an unspoken bond, and she could feel it too. If she weren't utterly broken inside, what mother would ever have the heart to give up her baby who was about to enter the world?
After a silence that seemed to stretch on forever, Phoebe took a deep breath. Then, with a resolve that left no room for doubt, she said, "I'm sure."

Five Times Too Many
For eight years in a marriage devoid of light, I had abortions five times. Every time, Sam would grip my hand when I woke up, his eyes red, and promise to find the best doctors to help me recover.
After the third miscarriage, he finally hired a team of top-tier nutritionists, ensuring that every single meal was planned perfectly.
He always comforted me, "Don't worry, Penny. We're still young, so we can have another baby!"
When I found out I was pregnant again, snowflakes were dancing outside my window.
I wrapped my fur coat tightly around my body and rushed to the company, only to hear Wren's furious voice outside the VIP suite, "Are you insane? Those five babies were your own flesh and blood!"
Sam replied coldly, "Nicole needs specimen for her experiments. All I'm doing is providing her with the materials she needs."
His words dug into my heart like icy spikes, and I could even hear my own bones cracking.
"As for Penelope…" He chuckled. "Do you think that our marriage certificate is the real deal?"
Snowflakes stung my face like needles, and I finally found out the truth about our marriage.
From the very beginning, I was nothing more than a living test subject for the woman he truly loved.
Sam was right. Those unborn children never even had legal identities, and were worth less than a piece of paper, just like my so-called marriage.
Glass shattered from inside the room, and I could hear Wren cursing, but I turned and walked towards the elevator.
Since Sam's priority was Nicole and nothing else, I was hell-bent on making him pay the price.

A Kiss And Many Lies
De ~ Fortune's Ecstasy ✍️
1 "It's over between us, honey." I said to Clyde, flinging the divorce papers at him. You don't want to be the bad guy, am I right? Well now, you don't have to worry about who the bad guy is."
He watched the papers flutter to the floor, dumfounded.
They assumed she was still in a coma and so wouldn't see them. Even if she wasn't, this wouldn't be the first time her dear husband would kiss another woman in her presence.
She saw nothing. But the slurps and moans woke her from the state of coma. The raptures and gasps had kept her from resting, and their shivers of pleasure caused a tear to drop from her eye.
She collapsed making lunch for him. But here he was, making out with a woman she considered to be her best friend.
All she could think of was revenge, and she knew who was perfect for the job. Not only was she going to get back at him, she was going to show her true identity now.
She comes out of the hospital with his twins inside of her and left him alone with the realization that his life was about to change forever.
Whisked away to a different world, Everleigh finds love in the arms of Clyde's arch nemesis.
Love, hate, betrayal, resentment, envy and secret babies. It all started with one good kiss on the wrong lips, and a lot of lies to the wrong ears.

Nobody was willing to be with a woman like me anymore.
After word started spreading within our social circle that Brad had gotten a new lover, everybody was waiting for me to go crawling back to him.

The Gap in Our Words
My mother-in-law could not understand me.
Before my business trip, I repeatedly told her not to touch anything in my study, but she mixed up the contract I needed. As a result, I lost a million-dollar order and was fired from my company.
To make up for her mistake, she promised she would take care of my child and help me find another job.
I froze my milk, labeled everything with notes, and gave her detailed instructions on timing and measurements.
However, when my baby ended up in the hospital, I found out that she had thrown out all the milk and fed my baby expired formula instead.
Even worse, she fed my baby peanuts behind my back, causing my baby to suffocate and die.
Afterward, she wailed, "That was my granddaughter! How could I not care? If I could, I'd die with her..."
My husband slapped me, shouting, "My mom worked so hard to take care of the child, and you want to drive her to her death? She's an old woman. It's not easy for her!"
My sister-in-law came over too, calling me ungrateful and blaming me for treating an elderly woman badly. She claimed I deserved to be childless and alone.
However, they did not know how many times I had stopped my mother-in-law from causing trouble and harm to them.
I was driven to depression by them and eventually sent to a mental institution, where I was tortured to death.
If I had the chance to do it again, I would protect my child and myself and stop preventing my mother-in-law from causing chaos for others.
I would watch her bring equal destruction to each one of them!

What Page Are You On, Mr. Male Lead
She looked at her with contempt, her red heels clicking on the ground. A sinister smile is plastered on her face full of malice.
"Whatever you do, he's mine. Even if you go back in time, he's always be mine."
Then the man beside the woman with red heels, snaked his hands on her waist.
"You'll never be my partner. You're a trash!"
The pair walked out of that dark alley and left her coughing blood. At the last seconds of her life, her lifeless eyes closed.

One Goodbye Is Enough
My husband did not love me, and he certainly did not love our child.
On the day our son was born, he did not even glance at him. He merely tossed him into my arms.
Then, his first love came back from overseas.
That night, the ever-cold Henry had gotten drunk for the first time. He even smiled as he held our child in his arms.
Delighted, our son wrapped his little arms around my husband's neck and asked me in a soft voice, “Mommy, what’s wrong with Uncle?”
I crouched down, pulling him into my embrace. My eyes reddened as I explained, “Uncle's favorite person came back, so we shouldn’t bother him anymore. We’re going to find a new home.”

How to Settle?
"There Are THREE SIDES To Every Story. YOURS, HIS And The TRUTH."We both hold distaste for the other. We're both clouded by their own selfish nature. We're both playing the blame game. It won't end until someone admits defeat. Until someone decides to call it quits. But how would that ever happen? We're are just as stubborn as one another.Only one thing would change our resolution to one another. An Engagement. .......An excerpt -" To be honest I have no interest in you. ", he said coldly almost matching the demeanor I had for him, he still had a long way to go through before he could be on par with my hatred for him. He slid over to me a hot cup of coffee, it shook a little causing drops to land on the counter. I sighed, just the sight of it reminded me of the terrible banging in my head. Hangovers were the worst. We sat side by side in the kitchen, disinterest, and distaste for one another high. I could bet if it was a smell, it'd be pungent."I feel the same way. " I replied monotonously taking a sip of the hot liquid, feeling it burn my throat. I glanced his way, staring at his brown hair ruffled, at his dark captivating green eyes. I placed a hand on my lips remembering the intense scene that occurred last night. I swallowed hard. How? I thought. How could I be interested?I was in love with his brother.
