99 Gaya

ครั้งที่ 99 ที่คู่หมั้นของฉัน—เดรเวน—ตัดสายใส่ ฉันก็ลากร่างที่แทบหมดแรงไปยังโบสถ์ของตระกูล มือกำใบเอกสารแน่นใบที่วินิจฉัยว่าเป็นโรคไตวายระยะสุดท้าย “คุณพ่อคะ ดิฉันขอสละสถานะจากตระกูลรอชชี่ และขอยกเลิกการหมั้นกับเดรเวน ฟรอสต์” คำพูดเพิ่งหลุดจากปาก พ่อแม่ก็พังประตูเข้ามาพร้อมกับน้องสาวบุญธรรมของฉัน—บิอังก้า พ่อของฉันซึ่งเป็นที่ปรึกษาของตระกูลไม่ลังเลแม้แต่วินาทีเดียว เขาตบฉันเต็มแรงต่อหน้าบาทหลวง “คู่หมั้นของแกคือมาเฟียอาวุโสผู้ทรงอิทธิพลในโลกของเรา แต่แกกลับกล้าดูหมิ่นเขาแบบนี้!” “แกกำลังเหยียบย่ำชื่อเสียงตระกูลต่อหน้าคนทั้งองค์กร!” แม่กระชากใบวินิจฉัยจากมือฉัน เหลือบดูเพียงครู่หนึ่งก่อนจะหัวเราะเยาะ “แกล้งป่วยเรียกร้องความสนใจอีกแล้วเหรอ คราวนี้อยากได้อะไรอีกล่ะ” บิอังก้าเกาะแขนพ่อแม่แน่น เสียงสั่นสะอื้น “ขอโทษนะพี่ พี่เอาที่นั่งในงานกาล่าของหนูไปก็ได้ ได้โปรดเถอะ หยุดสร้างปัญหาให้พ่อกับแม่สักที!” ฉันปาดเลือดที่ไหลจากจมูก ก่อนจะพูดซ้ำกับบาทหลวงอย่างสงบนิ่ง “ฉันไม่ใช่ลูกสาวของตระกูลรอชชี่อีกต่อไป และไม่คู่ควรกับพันธมิตรอย่างตระกูลฟรอสต์” “ฉันจะตายในอีกสามวัน ฉันต้องการให้การหมั้นนี้ถูกยกเลิกก่อนถึงวันนั้น”

Every time my husband cheated, he gave me a bracelet. I collected 99 bracelets in four years of marriage—I forgave him 99 times. He was away on a business trip for three days lately. When he came back, he brought home a rare bracelet worth Ten Million Dollars. That was when I knew it was time to ask for a divorce.

I was a genius alchemist, but my mate, Alpha Clark, engineered my failure 99 times, shattering my reputation. He siphoned my very soul 99 times to gift it to another she-wolf, Layla, molding her into the Alchemy Master I was meant to be. He claimed Layla was his savior, that he owed her his life. It wasn't until I uncovered his betrayal and severed our bond that he learned the truth: I was the one who had saved him. Those scars on my back—the ones he scorned? They were the price I paid for his life. After I walked away, he knelt for 99 days, begging for me to return. But some betrayals can never be forgiven.

My wife, Ariel Sweeney, would always buy me a new watch every time she cheated on me. We'd been married for four years, and I'd already collected 99 watches. That also meant I'd forgiven her 99 times too. This time, she went on a business trip for three days, and returned with a Patek Philippe watch worth ten million dollars for me. I then knew that it was time we got a divorce.

Setelah menggoda suamiku yang religius sebanyak 99 kali, suamiku akhirnya melanggar pantangannya demi diriku dan bermesraan denganku selama tiga hari tiga malam. Aku mengira dia akhirnya mencintaiku. Tapi, saat sedang merapikan ruang kerja, tidak sengaja aku menemukan pesan di komputernya. Dia mengirimkan video pribadiku kepada kakakku, Tamara Gunadi. [Biar abis ini dia nggak bakal ngejar-ngejar aku lagi. Kamu tenang aja Rara, sampai mati pun aku nggak bakal nyentuh dia. Orang yang aku sayang cuma kamu.] Tamara mengirimkan pesan suara berdurasi 60 detik, suaranya terdengar centil dan menggoda. "William, aku beneran terharu banget! Nggak nyangka kamu demi ngejaga kesucianku, malah nyuruh banyak orang buat mainin dia. Kira-kira kalau suatu saat dia tahu yang sebenernya, dia bakal marah nggak ya sama aku?" Suara William yang serak terdengar penuh tekanan dan menahan diri. "Emangnya dia berani? Seujung rambut kamu pun dia nggak bisa tandingin. Dia itu gatel banget, ada orang yang mau make dia saja sudah untung." "Lagian, semua foto syur sama video itu ada di aku. Kalaupun dia tau, dia nggak bakal punya muka buat nyalahin siapa-siapa." Tamara mengirimkan beberapa foto pribadi dengan pakaian minim. "William, bantuin aku lihat dong, gaya aku yang ini gimana? Apa kakinya harusnya dibuka lebih lebar lagi?"

Once upon a time, Leonard truly loved me. In order to establish a Mate Bond with me, he confessed 99 times. On the 99th time, I was finally moved. On the day of our Marking Ceremony, I gave him 99 forgiveness coupons. I promised him that I would forgive him 99 times. As long as he still had coupons left over, I would forgive him and stay with him no matter what he did. We were bonded for six years. In the first five years of our Mate Bond, I rarely ever used the forgiveness coupons. Since his childhood friend Judy returned, however, I started burning through the coupons. When I tore up the 98th coupon, Leonard noticed that I had changed. I no longer made a fuss or fought him over Judy. I simply asked him calmly, “If you go to Judy, can I use up one forgiveness coupon?” Leonard paused and then recovered his cool. “Sure. I only used up slightly over half, so use another if you want.” I stayed silent as he left the house. As it turned out, he had no idea he had just lost his 98th coupon. He only had one chance left. After that, I would leave him forever.

My name is Emma Brannigan. Just as my relationship progress hits 99%, Jake Sterling convinces me to sleep with him. The next instant, the system's sharp warning rings out. "Emma, Jake's affection level for you has fallen from 99% to 60%! He's clearly unhappy with your performance." I spiral into self-doubt and try every possible thing to improve myself. One day, I overhear Jake bragging to his friends. "Emma still doesn't realize that I can control her progress however I want. "It's exactly like training a dog. When she does well, I raise her score as a reward, and when she slips up, I lower it to push her to improve. "The first time she slept with me, I wasn't satisfied, so I dropped her progress to 60%. "I bet she's already thinking about how to do even better for me next time!"

"I want a divorce, Luke." sambit ng asawa niya. Buong akala ni Luke ay makukuntento na ang asawa niyang si Hannah sa kung anong kaya niyang ibigay. Ngunit gaya ng inaasahan, hindi nito kayang mamuhay kasama ang isang mahirap na gaya niya. Isang office staff sa umaga, delivery man sa gabi. Ilan lamang iyan sa mga dahilan kung bakit puro pambubuska at panlalait ang natatamo ni Luke sa mga ka-trabahon at maging sa asawa niyang si Hannah. Ngunit... Paano kung bigla na lamang nila nalaman na ang lalaking inakala nilang mahirap ay isa palang ubod na yamang tagapagmana ng pinakamalaking kompanya sa bansa?

Five years ago, Gary Cooper proposed to me 99 times just to marry me. Five years later, to cheer up the secretary he adored, he handed me 99 divorce papers. "Relax. I'm not actually divorcing you. I'm just humoring her. Just pretend like you always do. There's no need to sign." When Gary said it, he was even smiling. As for me, the heartbreak I once felt had long since faded. Now, there was barely a ripple left. I suddenly remembered what day it was and asked quietly, "Will you be home for dinner tonight?" He paused for a moment, then casually shook his head. "Probably not. Today's kind of special. I don't want her to get jealous." I nodded and watched him walk out the door. Then, I picked up a pen and carefully signed my name on the 99th divorce agreement.
