Chasing After My Wife

My husband is the Don of the entire New York East Coast Mafia. For ten years, I dimmed my own light to be his perfect silent partner, the dutiful wife who gave him the perfect heir. I thought we were the lovers who wou ld die for each other. Then came a mere associat. My husband and son had formed an alliance with the woman who seem want to take my place. But they just said, "Elena, you have the crown and the kingdom. She has nothing but us. Be generous." So, to make her smile, my husband trampled on my dignity again and again. To please her, my son affectionately calls her "Mom." In their eyes, I was the iron wall, the woman who would swallow any insult for the sake of the family honor. Until the fire. My husband locked me inside the burning room, to let me "reflect" on my jealousy. He didn't know that the fire didn't kill me. But it burned away the last ash of my love for him.

Bata pa lamang si Sam ay bukambibig na niya na si Vaughn ang lalaking kanyang magiging asawa — na kaibigan ng nakakatanda niyang kapatid. Kahit malaki ang agwat ng kanilang edad at nakakabatang kapatid lamang ang turing nito sa kanya. Madalas nga ay nagpa-practice na siya sa pagsusulat at idudugtong ang apelyido ni Vaughn na Lopez sa kanyang buong pangalan na Samantha Santos. Inspirasyon din niya ito sa kanyang pag-aaral para maipagmalaki siya nito. Samantalang ang binata ay may nobya sa katauhan ni Yvonne — childhood sweetheart ng binata. At nangako na pagkatapos ng sampung taon nito sa modelling career ay magpapakasal na silang dalawa at iiwanan ni Yvonne ang modelling para sa bubuuin nilang pamilya. Nang malaman iyon ni Sam ay labis nitong ininda ang balitang iyon — hindi kumain ng ilang araw, tumangis nang tumangis sa kanyang silid, napabayaan ang pag-aaral at naging sakitin. Hanggang sa isang araw ay makabuo siya ng plano — ang pikutin si Vaughn. Hindi naman siya nagtagumpay dahil nahulaan agad ng binata ang kanyang masamang balak. Sa kasamaang palad ay hindi natuloy ang kasal nila Vaughn at Yvonne. Sinamantala naman ni Samantha ang pagkakataon na ligawan si Vaughn. Wala siyang pakialam kung siya ang humabol sa binatang CEO. Walang nakapigil sa kanya kahit ultimo ang sariling pamilya dahil katwiran niya ay nasa tamang edad na siya at tapos na sa pag-aaral. Ngunit, tila naging bato na yata ang puso ng binatang Bilyonaryo dahil kahit anong panunuyo niya rito ay hindi talaga siya nito pinapansin. Igi-give up na ba niya ang pagmamahal kay Vaughn at ibabaling na lamang ang atensyon sa nakababatang kapatid nito na matagal nang may gusto sa kanya? O maghihintay pa rin siya na mapansin ni Vaughn kahit mayroon na ulit itong bagong nobya?

After getting laid off, I found a new job. I married a woman who was in a coma and became the live-in son-in-law of a wealthy family. In return, my mother-in-law gave me a million dollars a month. However, one day, my comatose wife opened her eyes, and I could hear her thoughts. She thought, ‘Where did Mom find this ugly, dumb guy?’

On the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, my father’s brother-in-arms pushed photos of his daughters in front of me and told me to choose a fiancee. Without hesitation, I picked the photo of the eldest daughter, Yvonne Shaw. Everyone around me stared in shock. They all knew that I was deeply in love with the second daughter, Natalie Shaw. In my previous life, I had chased after Natalie for ten years before finally marrying her. Through our marriage, she became the heiress of the Shaw family. But three years after we got married, she became pregnant with my brother’s child. Our parents were furious. They forced her to get an abortion and sent my brother away. From then on, Natalie hated me to the core. Every night, she would bring home men who looked like my brother and spend the night with them. The constant torment wore me down, and I eventually fell gravely ill and died a miserable death. When I opened my eyes again, I was back to that night when I had to choose a fiancee. This time, I chose to let them be together. But what I did not expect was that Natalie had been reborn too.

"LEO, MAGDIVORCE na tayo…” *** Ang pakikipagdivorce sa asawa ni Hyacinth Dominguez ay isang napakahirap na desisyon. Pero paulit ulit na lang siyang nasasaktan. Marami na siyang tiniis at isinakripisyo para kay Leo Cantavieja na siyang mahal na mahal niya. Kailanman ay hindi nasuklian ang pagmamahal niyang iyon. Dahil isa lang naman siyang pamalit sa kapatid niya. Hindi naman talaga dapat si Hyacinth ang pakakasalan ni Leo, pero ganoon ang nangyari sa huli dahil naglaho ang kapatid niya bigla. Akala ni Hyacinth, magiging masaya siya at mapapasaya niya rin si Leo. Pero mali siya… dahil isang substitute, plain at naturingang ‘ugly duckling’ lang siya sa paningin ni Leo. Hinding hindi niya matatapatan ang kapatid niya sa puso nito. Pero paano kung isang iglap, binura ni Hyacinth ang imahe niya bilang ugly duckling sa mga mata ng tao at ni Leo? Paano kung magbago ang ikot ng mundo bigla at si Leo naman ang naghabol bigla sa kaniya?

When I get reborn, I quietly change the name of the man I want to marry the most to the hedonistic playboy in the neighborhood. My dad, who's a political officer, is quite surprised to see the change, but he still accepts my choice. In my previous life, when Dad asked me who I liked the most among the young men of the military housing office, I uttered Judd Garrison's name with scarlet cheeks. Dad nodded. "Judd is your childhood friend, not to mention our families are compatible in terms of social standing and wealth. You two have grown up together since you were kids, so I believe he will treat you well." Later on, Judd and I got engaged and married. Our wedding was a fancy and high-profile one to the point that even the political leader gave us his blessings. But Judd was quick to submit an application to help defend the border half a year into our marriage. He claimed that he wanted to contribute to the country with his efforts. Not only did he abandon me, leaving me to take care of my in-laws on my own, but he also cut off contact with me when Dad was falsely accused of being corrupted. Just as I thought I couldn't function anymore after suffering from the pain wrought upon me by Dad's death, I received the tragic news that Judd had died in a mountain flood as well. Thanks to the devastation caused by both pieces of bad news, I ended up taking my own life by hanging myself. What I didn't expect was that a gray-haired, elderly couple would visit my grave to pay respects to me 40 years after my death. Judd, who should've been dead, had an arm wrapped around my cousin, Megan Whitlock, as they stood before my grave. "It's my fault for faking my death and lying to you, Julie. Back then, I had to marry you in order to fulfill my parents' request. Megan has always been the woman that I truly love. "This is all my fault, Julie. I just hope that you can stop pestering Megan from now on. If you really are resentful, you're free to direct your resentment at me." To think that they loved each other to this extent… Judd was willing to give up on his identity and fake his death in order to get out of his life with me so that he could stay with Megan forever. He even clung to the superstition that my postmortem resentment was the reason behind Megan's cancer. Having found out about the truth, I let go of my obsession and faded into nothing. When I open my eyes again, I've returned to the day Dad asks me who I like the most.

My wife—Nancy Valente—had been "missing" for three months after some fake skiing accident. I spotted her at a bar. She was draped over Finley Bennett's shoulder, laughing like she hadn't wrecked my life. "Good thing you came up with this plan. I almost forgot what freedom felt like." Her crew kept clinking glasses, asking when she planned to pop back up. She glanced down. "Maybe in a week. I'll show up once he's lost his mind." I stayed in the shadows, watching her bask in her little escape act. Then I grabbed my phone and called a buddy at the Vital Records Office.
