Air Mata Maharani Part 13

Five years after I broke up with my childhood sweetheart, Jason Thorne, my ALS progressed to its terminal stage. Since I can't receive any treatment for my disease at all, I decide to fly back to my hometown and wait for my death to come. Meanwhile, Jason has been dating a woman named Freya Tyler for five years. In fact, they are about to get married. Freya is even pregnant with Jason's child. We bump into each other in the hospital's garden. When Jason sees the blanket around my shoulders, he scoffs at me. "You're already this weak, and yet you're here all alone. It seems that your doctor boyfriend isn't taking good care of you at all. Then again, you did cheat on me with that guy. It only makes sense that your new relationship won't end well at all." Freya smiles brightly at me. "That's enough, Jason. It's not like everyone is capable of taking care of me very well, just like you do. "Our wedding will be held at the base of a snow mountain in Selvaria. You simply must attend our wedding, Ms. Moyer." As I gaze at Jason's cold and arrogant expression, I do my best to suppress my feelings of longing and guilt. Instead, I reply calmly, "No, thank you. I'm not interested in my ex-boyfriend's life. I'm only staying here for a short while. In the future, I will never come back ever again." Jason merely huffs before turning on his heel and walking away. But when I depart from this world, he loses his will to live too.

« Mme Sterling, êtes-vous certaine de vouloir mettre fin à vingt ans de mariage... et renoncer à la garde de vos enfants ? » « Oui. Déposez les documents. J'en ai assez. » Ma voix était calme, sans tremblement, tandis que je frottais avec énergie une tache de graisse tenace sur le plan de travail en marbre. Vingt ans. Vingt ans à m'oublier, à me fondre dans les murs de cette maison. À gérer chaque détail domestique, à m'inquiéter pour chaque bulletin scolaire, à me tenir dans l'ombre d'Alexander, soutien silencieux et sans récrimination de son ascension inexorable au sein du consortium. Et lui ? Le voilà qui avait donné une interview, flanqué de sa jeune sœur adoptive, Chloe. Il avait osé déclarer sans même un battement de cil : « Tout ce que j'ai accompli, je le dois à elle. À ma chère petite sœur. » Même mes enfants me regardaient avec ce mépris froid, traitant de « banale » et de « vulgaire » la femme qui les avait mis au monde. Ils formaient un front uni, tous quatre, avec cette sœur adoptive omniprésente, cette tata Chloe, qui se comportait en maîtresse des lieux. J'ai signé les papiers du divorce. Je suis partie. Qu'ils forment, eux, leur famille parfaite. Mais par la suite… c'était leur tour de regretter…

Dahil sa isang gabing pakikipagsiping ni Nellia sa isang bilyonaryo na nagngangalang Anderson. Kailan man hindi na siya pinakawalan nito. Subalit, isang araw bumalik ang fiance ni Anderson at ginawa ang lahat para mawala sa buhay ni Anderson si Nelia. Isang araw binalita ni Menda na buntis siya kay Anderson. Subalit, nagawa pa rin ni Nelia ang tanggapin ang lahat. Hanggang sa nalaman na rin ni Nelia na buntis rin siya Kay Anderson. Ngunit isang lalaking kaibigan ni Anderson ay nagawang magpanggap na siya ang ama sa dinadala ni Nelia.

Eu interrompi uma gravidez antes que completasse três meses — e ele nunca sequer soube disso. Ele estava ocupado demais reacendendo as coisas com a ex, ainda preso às chamas do passado. Para fazê-la se sentir confortável, deu a ela o meu quarto principal como se não fosse nada. Chegou até a transformar o que deveria ser a nossa festa de noivado em uma festa de boas-vindas para ela. Deixou que eu me tornasse motivo de chacota para todos ao nosso redor. Então virei as costas, cortei meu vestido de noivado e aceitei me casar com o homem que minha família havia escolhido para mim.

"Tolong jangan pergi dari hidupku, aku tidak sanggup hidup tanpamu." Bram bersujud memohon di hadapan Amel. Ia tidak menyangka akan jatuh cinta kepada Amel, yang tak lain hanyalah seorang sugar baby. Yang berasal dari desa dan anak dari keluarga sederhana. "Maaf om, aku harus pergi. Hubungan ini terlalu rumit, banyak hati yang tersakiti." Jawab Amel sambil berurai air mata. Demi ibu dan kakaknya! Amel harus rela meninggalkan pria yang paling dicintainya.

« Tu vas me tuer pour t'avoir trahi ? » demandai-je, le cœur battant la chamade. Il s'approcha, me saisit par le cou et me murmura à l'oreille : « Enlève tes vêtements et écarte les jambes pour moi, petit oiseau. » Il était le parrain de la mafia, impitoyable, craint, et il devait une épouse. Mon frère était criblé de dettes. Pour sauver sa peau, il m'a vendue à la Cosa Nostra. À l'homme qui m'avait été promis, Damiano Lombardi, l'homme le plus dangereux de la famille criminelle new-yorkaise. Mais au lieu d'accepter mon sort, j'ai fui – loin, vite, sans me retourner. Des années plus tard, il me retrouve. Je pensais qu'il me tuerait pour l'avoir déshonoré. Mais Damiano ne veut pas ma mort, il veut se venger, obtenir son obéissance… et m'avoir. Ce qui avait commencé comme un mariage arrangé se transforme en une obsession dangereuse. Damiano Lombardi n'est plus seulement l'homme que j'ai fui. C'est lui dont je ne peux m'échapper : son contact, sa fureur, son amour. Mais dans l'ombre de notre passé, des ennemis guettent. Et dans ce monde, l'amour n'est pas un refuge. C'est une arme. Damiano était un véritable dieu grec. Les filles se jetaient à ses pieds et je me croyais si différente d'elles, mais je me trompais.

La sœur adoptive de mon mari m’a invitée à dîner, et pendant le repas, un tremblement de terre a eu lieu. Mon mari, pompier, est arrivé immédiatement pour nous sauver. Cependant, comme nous étions toutes les deux coincées sous la même grosse pierre, il ne pouvait sauver qu’une seule personne. Afin de sauver en premier sa sœur adoptive, qui était fragile et malade, mon mari m’a abandonnée, malgré le fait que j’étais enceinte de cinq mois. Je l’ai supplié de me sauver. Il a laissé la grosse pierre briser mon bras. « Ysaline a toujours été fragile et malade, si on la laisse ici, elle mourra. » Mais après ma mort, il est devenu fou.

When I was six months pregnant, I was visiting the hospital when I saw my husband with his childhood friend, who had recently returned to the country. I was left holding my own prenatal checkup report, watching as they celebrated their soon-to-be born child. Still, Kelly Wallace appeared worried and even sounded guilty. "Quentin, you didn't have to come with me—I'm fine alone. If Jolin finds out, she'll definitely have a fight with you. She's pregnant too… it'll affect her mood and the baby." Quentin Smith was confidently nonchalant. "No, she won't—she always obeys me and loves me too much. If she does argue, I'll just divorce her!" My heat broke, tears of misery rushing down my cheek. But it was true. I loved him so much that I couldn't even bear to argue with him and always obeyed him. Even so, that didn't mean I was going to maintain this sham of a marriage after learning about his deceit. Since he didn't want me and our child, then I could raise my baby alone. Wiping away my tears, I called a number I hadn't called for five years. "Dad, can I come home?" "Oh, Jo! You finally called. Of course you're always welcomed home!" Hanging up, I booked a ticket for a flight to Switzerland that was due to depart a week later. I'd be out of his hair, so why was he losing his mind when he couldn't find me?

Everyone thought Stellar Rivers was a fraud—a fake heiress thrown out by the powerful Harlow family. They believed her real parents were supposedly poor nobodies from the countryside. With nowhere else to go, she clung to Percy Moore, the youngest heir of the illustrious Moore family. Try as they might, no one could drive her away. But when Stellar overheard that Percy planned to marry the Harlow family’s true heiress, her lifelong rival, everything changed. Fine, he could have his perfect match. Stellar wasn’t going to waste another moment on someone who didn’t value her. Instead, she turned her back on him and reclaimed the life that had always been hers. A country bumpkin? Hardly. It turned out Stellar’s real family was wealthier and more powerful than anyone could imagine. With four influential uncles showering her with love and protection, she was ready to take the world by storm. And while she believed in playing fair, she also knew one thing: revenge was best served by her own hand. Meanwhile, Percy’s perfect world began to unravel. Without Stellar, his life was a mess—his business floundered, his fiancée’s reputation crumbled, and his carefully constructed future came crashing down. Desperate and full of regret, he showed up at Stellar’s doorstep, begging her to come back. But Stellar only smirked, casually leaning onto the tall, devastatingly handsome man at her side. “Sorry, Percy. I don’t take back what I’ve already let go.” As if that wasn’t enough, Stellar even dismissed the powerful man standing beside her, leaving him in the dust. “I said it before, and I’ll say it again—I don’t go back to what’s already behind me.” Even Stephen Ward, who broken off their engagement before they ever met, found himself on his knees, pleading, “Honey, I was wrong. Please, give me another chance!”

They came to celebrate love, but leave with blood on their hands. Brielle Champagne has it all: beauty, brains, and the perfect fiancé. Or so it seems. Behind the sparkling estate gates, her engagement party is nothing more than a high-society stage for lies, betrayal, and blackmail. Her sister, Draya, is back in town with secrets sharp enough to cut through the family’s carefully crafted image. Her best friend, Monty, is a temptation she can’t quite outrun. And her fiancé, Kannon Maxwell, is hiding the kind of truth that could shatter them both; a truth her powerful father is using to control everyone in the room. By the end of the weekend, hidden affairs will be exposed, old flames will reignite, and one devastating revelation might rip the Champagne family apart for good. Money can buy silence and the perfect party, but it can’t buy forgiveness.
