Cat In The Hat

Five years ago, I became the wife of Cesare Fontana, the most powerful mafia don in Navarino. However, he didn't make our relationship public. Cesare has always been cold and unfeeling toward everyone. I assumed that's just the way he is. One day, I get to see the way he interacts with Sonia Moretti, his childhood friend. When I see the bright smile on his face and notice the attentive care he shows her, I finally realize that there is someone in this world whom he treats with gentleness and warmth. Alas, I'm not the lucky woman. I hand over the divorce papers. Cesare remains as impassive as ever. He signs the paperwork without even knowing that it will mark the end of our marriage. When he finally finds out that I've left, weirdly enough, he immediately panics. He does everything in his power to find me and bring me back. By then, I've already left the country. I make my way to a country beyond his reach and carve out a fulfilling life for myself. Cesare becomes the one who pines for me instead.

I'm a CEO. Funny things keep happening around me after I meet a weird woman.

Ailisha memutuskan untuk kembali mengikuti audisi bintang Kpop yang sedang diselenggarakan oleh beberapa agensi besar di sana. Sudah cukup lama ia tak kembali berkompetisi seperti itu. Terakhir kali Ailisha mengikuti audisi adalah ketika dirinya masih duduk di kelas 2 SMA, sementara saat ini statusnya sudah menjadi mahasiswa seni musik di salah satu kampus swasta yang ada di Indonesia. Itu sudah lama sekali sejak ia mencoba peruntungannya yang terakhir. Sudah bisa ditebak jika gadis itu tak pernah lolos audisi sama sekali. Karena kalian masih bisa mendapatinya di Indonesia. Tanpa sengaja Ailisha mendengar kabar jika ada agensi baru yang namanya sudah cukup popular saat ini. Rumor mengatakan jika agensi itu milik dari seorang pria non Korea. Meski baru berdiri, agensi ini sudah cukup kuat untuk menyaingi agensi besar lainnya yang tak kalah hebat. Sampai saat ini belum ada satupun media yang merilis profil pemilik serta pengelola agensi tersebut. Ailisha berusaha untuk memberanikan dirinya sendiri. Pada akhirnya ia kembali mencoba peruntungannya di agensi lain. SAN Entertainment adalah salah satu dari sekian banyak agensi yang coba ia lamar. Kali ini dewi fortuna sedang berpihak kepadanya dan membiarkannya lolos hingga ke tahap akhir. Awalnya ia sempat keliru, karena sejauh yang ia ingat sampai saat ini adalah dirinya melamar posisi penari. Namun pada saat proses wawancara berlangsung, kotak keterangan yang berada di formulir menunjukkan jika dirinya terpilih sebagai seorang penulis lirik. Rasa kecewa wajar timbul pada saat itu, namun tak berlangsung lama karena Ailisha adalah tipe orang yang cepat melupakan. Ia memilih untuk tak ambil pusing soal hal itu. Yang terpenting baginya saat ini adalah karirnya. Hingga dirinya terjebak pada satu situasi yang tak pernah bisa ia lupakan sedetikpun kejadiannya. Semua rasa penasarannya saat ini terjawab sudah tanpa sengaja. Pusaran waktu membawanya kembali pada pria itu. Tak ada yang pernah menduga jika hal ini akan terjadi.

Brandon selalu memimpikan wanita yang sama selama lima tahun terakhir. Yang membuatnya gila adalah, ia tak pernah sekalipun bertemu dengan wanita tersebut. Wanita seperti malaikat yang dipanggilnya sebagai Angel. Apakah wanita itu nyata? ataukah hanya fantasinya belaka?

I stared down at the contract, a wave of defiance bubbling up in me. I turned back to him, meeting his gaze head-on. "I never asked for your help," I said, "I would've found a way to save my mother on my own. You may think you own me, but I'd rather die than marry you." A slow smile crept across his face, a smug, knowing look that sent a chill down my spine. He knew exactly what I was thinking, as if my resistance only entertained him. "Look at me," he commanded. I reluctantly turned back, locking eyes with him. His face had shifted, his expression darkened, and for the first time, true fury was etched in his eyes. "I’ll count to ten," he said, "If that contract isn’t signed by the time I reach ten, I’ll make the same call I made to pay those bills. Only this time, the instructions will be different. Your mother... your sister…they’ll both be gone." He took a breath, settling back as if the threat were a mere matter of routine. "So… ONE!!" I swallowed hard, my heartbeat pounding in my ears. Could he be bluffing? No, I'd seen him kill before, seen how casually he turned life and death into sports. "FOUR," he counted. My hands started to shake. What could I do? If I signed, I'd be bound to him forever, trapped as his wife. But if I didn’t... my mother and sister’s lives hung in the balance. "SEVEN." I closed my eyes, fighting the panic rising in my chest. He wouldn’t do it, I told myself. He couldn’t be that monstrous. But even as I thought it, the doubt crept in. I wasn’t sure. Then, he hit "TEN" himself
