7th Anniversary

Bata pa lamang si Elyana, pangarap na niya ang magkaroon ng isang malaking pamilya dahil alam niya ang pakiramdam ng walang kapatid. Kaya naman nang makasal siya kay Finn na isang bilyonaryong taga-England, sinubukan nila ang lahat ng paraan para matupad iyon kahit ilang beses na silang nabigo. Sa limang taon nilang pagsasama, unti-unting nagbago si Finn na kapansin-pansin sa mga mata ni Elyana. Hanggang isang araw pinasundan niya ito sa isang tao at napag-alam na may kalaguyo pala ito. Ang masama pa, nahuli niya siya na maykas*ping sa kama sa mismong rest house na regalo pa ni Finn noong wedding anniversary nila. Nang muli silang nagkaharap, naglakas-loob si Elyana na itanong kung ano ang dahilan, bakit siya nagtaksil at ang sagot ni Finn, iyon ay dahil hindi raw kaya ni Elyana na mabigyan siya ng anak. Napakasakit para sa kaniya na marinig ang mga iyon. Nag-file siya ng diborsyo at nang maaprubahan, nagpasyang umuwi ng Pilipinas upang kalimutan ang lahat. Sa tulong ng matalik na kaibigang si Felicity, unti-unti niyang tinanggap na hindi na kailanman matutupad ang panngarap na iyon, ngunit isang araw, babalik si Finn dala ang katotohanan at ayusin ang nasira nilang buhay. Nararapat ba para kay Finn ang kapatawarang kan'yang hangad? Mapapatawad pa kaya ni Elyana ito matapos nitong wasakin ang kan'yang puso, pagkatao na halos ikabaliw niya noon at ang tiwala na walang pagdadalawang-isip na inalay rito?

Amelia Carter has only loved one man in her entire life. And that's her husband, Noah Allen. But she received nothing but heartbreak for her love. On their second anniversary, Noah came home with her best friend, who was pregnant for him, and threw divorce papers at Amelia's face. "You're barren, and you have nothing to offer me. Lucy will be my wife from now.” He yelled while throwing Amelia's bags out of the house. Amelia begged with tears but her pleas turned on deaf ears, and she was thrown out to the streets. As she contemplated how to take her own life, a fleet of cars surrounded her, and the city's wealthiest billionaire, Damian Donovan, stepped out. "Amelia, will you marry me? I will give you everything you desire if you become my wife," he offered, extending his hand to her. "How do you know my name?" Amelia asked him, dumbfounded. "I know more than just your name," he replied. "In fact, I know everything about you, including your divorce. And I also know you want revenge on your best friend and ex-husband. I can help you." ************************* Damian didn’t believe in love, but he needed a wife to claim the inheritance his uncle left him. Amelia needed to take revenge on her ex-husband, and what better way to do it than a marriage of convenience with his worst enemy? There were only two rules in their fake marriage: no entanglement or sexual relationship, and they would go their separate ways after the arrangement was over. But their attraction for each other is more than they bargained for. When feelings start to get real, and Noah wants Amelia back, will Damian let her go? Or will he fight for what he believes is his?

But her love, however, was something her husand took for granted. On the night of their anniversary, Serena walks into what should have been a celebration of their love—only to realize the candles, the diamond necklace, the handwritten note… were for someone else.
