Arti Shut Down Anyway

Buong akala ni Hope Vasquez ay siya na ang pinakamasuwerteng babae sa buong mundo nang pakasalan siya ni Dr. Isaac Monteverdi, ang lalaking pinapangarap niya simula pa noong bata pa lamang siya. Hindi lingid sa kaniyang kaalaman na ang dahilan lamang ng pagpapakasal ng lalaki sa kaniya ay para sundin nito ang kagustuhan ng kanilang mga magulang at para na rin takasan nito ang masakit na alaala sa dating kasintahan. Hope gave her all for Isaac para matutunan din siya nitong mahalin. She even gave up her glamorous career in show business and became the kind of wife every man dreams of. Subalit gumuho ang kaniyang pangarap na mamahalin din siya ng asawa nang biglang bumalik sa buhay nito si Angenette, his first love. Kung kailan nagsisimula niya nang makuha ang loob ni Isaac ay saka naman ito bumalik para bawiin ito sa kaniya. Despite of everything Isaac did that could ruin their marriage, Hope remained loyal to him. Handa siyang magpakatanga at tanggapin ang pagtataksil nito as long as na hindi siya iiwanan nito. Subalit isang trahedya ang nagpabago sa kaniyang pananaw at sa pag-ibig niya para rito na buong akala niya ay walang katapusan. She wanted revenge. Gagawin niya ang lahat para iparamdam dito ang sakit na pinaramdam nito sa kaniya. She's willing to risk everything para maisagawa ang paghihiganti niya kahit pa ibig sabihin n'on ay kailangan niyang gamitin si Zeke, ang best friend niya na totoong nagmamahal sa kaniya. Saan kaya hahantong ang paghihiganti niya?

Lewd videos of my best friend, Katie Anderson, are suddenly leaked online, and I defend her in public. However, Katie ends up accusing me of leaking the videos in the first place. All of a sudden, the entire Internet turns against me. I get blacklisted by the whole entertainment industry and get cyberbullied online as well. Katie's die-hard fans abduct Mom by throwing a sack over her head and record lewd videos of her, driving her to so much shame she jumps off a building and dies. Meanwhile, Dad drinks rat poison and dies next to Mom's grave. After my family is torn apart, I ask Katie why she wants to frame me for everything. She replies, "Samael is the richest heir in the city. This is his fetish. You were the one who made everything into a big fuss. Of course, it's you who'll have to bear the responsibility for everything!" Samael Crews slinks his arm around Katie's waist and looks at me with a mocking smile on his face. "Did you think you were just trying to help out a fellow woman? Sorry, ex-girlfriend, but your precious bestie here is nothing more than an obedient lapdog of mine!" I end up being sold to Meowmar and eventually die from mistreatment. When I open my eyes again, I realize that I am reborn on the day that Katie accuses me of leaking her lewd videos online. This time, I choose to ignore her completely.

Love For The Wicked Book Three. In my eyes, the world is a huge sandbox created for the big boys. Girls, money, business… and I always strive to come out on top until my father gave me an ultimatum. I needed to find a wife, or I’d lose my rights to the family business. I found the perfect woman for the scheme I devised, of course. She was beautiful, feisty, the picture-perfect wife to make my father believe I was done playing games. In return, she needed a favor, the kind that takes nine months to deliver. The rules were laid out meticulously, from the no touching to fake falling in love. After a year, we would part ways amicably with no hassle, no demands, and no regrets; after all, it was all just a game. As my plan took its course, it dawned on me that playing house was a game I never should have played. She started to grow on me, from that sexy little pout to the late nightcap, the endless dirty banter, and even the fights we had. I realize I enjoyed having her around. Trouble is, how will I make her believe I am not playing games anymore? That I don’t want her to be just my contract wife, that I don’t want twelve months with her but more?

J'ai célébré notre troisième anniversaire de mariage avec une réception que j'avais soigneusement préparée. Mais mon mari, l'Alpha Johnny, est parti en vacances à la mer avec son assistante Émilie, me laissant seule au milieu des invités, livrée aux moqueries. Sous le regard des convives, j'ai composé calmement le numéro du complexe balnéaire, et j'ai même réservé tout le domaine pour eux deux. Ensuite, j'ai envoyé à Johnny la demande de rupture du lien conjugal, présentée comme une simple facture à signer. Dans ma vie précédente, pour préserver l'honneur de nos deux meutes, j'avais forcé Johnny à rester à mes côtés, tandis qu'Émilie était partie seule et avait trouvé la mort dans un accident de voiture. Johnny ne m'avait pas reproché sa mort, pas avant que je sois tombée enceinte. Il m'avait attachée dans une voiture et m'avait dit qu'il voulait que je ressente la douleur qu'Émilie avait endurée en mourant. Quand la voiture avait explosé, j'avais enfin compris que Johnny m'avait toujours haïe. Revenue à la vie, j'ai juré de tout lui reprendre, jusqu'à ce qu'il ne lui reste plus rien.
