He left her at the altar. She returned with his child and the power to ruin him. Arabella Monroe steps into the boardroom with ice in her veins and a little girl by her side who has Roman Callahan’s exact eyes. Seven years ago, she stood in a wedding dress, humiliated and pregnant, as Roman vanished without a word. Now, the tables have turned. Roman’s tech empire is crumbling. Hers is rising faster, louder, and unstoppable. And the one patent that could save his company? Arabella owns it. She came for business. She came for blood. But when old sparks reignite and buried betrayals claw their way back, Arabella must decide: Can she destroy the man who broke her without breaking what’s left of her heart?

A week before my death, my Alpha mate's childhood sweetheart Sarah returned to our pack. That night, he didn't come home. The next day, I received his mind-link. "I've purchased a mate-bond severing potion from the pack witch. Come home now so we can break our bond." In our pack, the Moon Goddess was very serious about mate bonds. Once two wolves chose to form a mate, the mate bond could not be severed, unless the witch's potion was used. This potion was very expensive, costing up to $500,000 per bottle. I smiled bitterly. He was very generous to sever the bond with me. I coughed twice before answering, "I'm in the healing center." His voice turned ice cold. "I don't care where you are. Even if you're about to die, you need to come back." I calmly replied, "Fine." He didn't know that I really was dying. Three years ago, during a rogue wolf attack, I blocked the silver dagger for him to protect him while he was unconscious. I was poisoned by silver and became weaker and weaker over the past three years. I only had one week left to live. On the day of my funeral, my mate was busy holding his marking ceremony with Sarah. Later, he knelt before my grave in pristine white ceremonial clothes, clutching my headstone and whispering through tears. "If there's another life after this one, I still want to marry you." That day was his marking ceremony with his childhood sweetheart. It was also my funeral.

"No one will ever be able to murder me; they would never dare." Galante, Carmine. I'm quite aware that I'm not a good man. People were terrified and respected when they heard my name, "Lord" Rolly Exruto Guevara. All in the sake of power, I committed dreadful, brutal, heartless, remorseless, violent things. I was the Capo of The Family, an American Italian crime gang. It's the mafia. Many females want to be at the bottom of my ruthless Mafia, but a man must look for his wife, not a woman who looks for her husband. I want to marry a lady or perhaps have children with a woman. It's what the males in my environment did to get more power and become more powerful. The fruits of my power shall inherit the power. That was my first encounter with Lara Sylvio, Clover's lovely and voluptuous secretary. She is going to be mine. I have her. l id never had such strong feelings for anybody or anything as I had for Lara. Her skin and lips made me feel as though there was something missing in this world, and she filled it in. I wanted Lara to the bone, and I'd make her mine for the rest of my life, not just for one night. A mafia is always a Mafia.

I came back to life the day Cedric Gramont got drugged. This time? I didn't offer my body to him. I called his so-called soulmate instead. In my last life, I stupidly fell for the uncle who wasn't blood-related. When I found out he'd been hit with something strong, I ignored his plea to call Elyna Humbert—and "helped" him myself. A month later, I was pregnant. He had to marry me. On our wedding day, Elyna, who'd gone abroad to "clear her head," got kidnapped and killed. Before she died, she called Cedric 199 times, begging for help. He didn't pick up once. Too busy sealing the deal with me. Later, he just stared at those missed calls, not saying a word. Then the day I went into labor, he locked me in the basement. I begged him to take me to the hospital. He just smiled, cold and empty, and watched me die screaming, the baby still inside me. Last thing I heard? "If you hadn't gotten pregnant, I wouldn't have married you. I wouldn't have missed Elyna's calls. You deserved to die." When I opened my eyes again, it was that same day—Cedric was drugged, but this time, I knew better.

Lorsque le criminel m’a attaquée et tuée, mon père, expert en détection criminelle, et ma mère, médecine légiste en chef, accompagnaient ma sœur Lyne qui participait à un match de tennis. Le criminel, qui avait été arrêté par mon père, cherchait à se venger de lui. Il m’avait coupé la langue avant de s’emparer de mon téléphone portable. Il a composé le numéro de mon père, il a répondu d’un ton glacial avant de raccrocher : « Quoi qu’il se passe avec toi, le match de ta sœur Lyne aujourd’hui est le plus important ! » Un rire ironique s’est échappé des lèvres de ce criminel : « Je pensais qu’ils préféraient leur fille biologique, mais il semble que j’avais tort. Apparemment, j’aurai dû kidnapper ta sœur Lyne. » Sur les lieux de l’accident, mes parents étaient secoués par l’horreur du corps retrouvé. Ils se sont figés, leur esprit n’arrivant pas à assimiler l’image macabre devant eux. Mais jamais, ils n’avaient imaginé que cette victime difforme et torturée, pouvait être leur propre fille.

แต่ละแผนกมีงานของตัวเอง แต่สิ่งที่ซ่อนอยู่หลังประตูห้องประชุม ห้องเก็บของ ไปจนถึงห้องทำงานของCEO คือเรื่องราวของ “เขาและเธอ” ที่ไม่มีใครกล้าบันทึกในรีพอร์ต เพราะที่นี่...เสียวกว่าออฟฟิศใดๆ ในมหานครที่เต็มไปด้วยความหลากหลาย ทั้งเชื้อชาติ และรสนิยมบนเตียง

Yang diinginkan Anya adalah menikmati hidupnya dengan tenang setelah banyak kejadian yang membuatnya takut pada pria, terkecuali pada Ayah dan saudaranya. Tapi semua berubah setelah Sean datang kembali ke hidupnya dan memporak-porandakan kehidupan tenangnya dan memicu kembali trauma yang telah ia tutupi hingga membuatnya menjadi seperti saat ini. "You miss me? Sudah lama kita tidak bertemu, how are you?" tanya Sean sambil menghimpit tubuh kurus Anya ke dinding lift, hanya ada mereka berdua saja di sana. "In your dream!" maki Anya sembari mendorong tubuh Sean menjauh meski hal itu sia-sia. "Really? Tapi sepertinya hatimu tidak sama dengan bibirmu yang manis itu," ujar Sean dengan seringai mengerikan di bibirnya.

My husband’s friend’s widow uploaded a picture of her pregnancy report. [Thank you for letting me have my own baby.] I responded with a question mark when I saw Jake Green, my husband’s name, in the husband column. Jake immediately called me to yell at me. “She’s a widow and is living alone. All she wants is to have a baby to keep her company and give her life a little more cheer. How could you not show her even this bit of pity? “You know that Henry is my friend. It’s only right for me to take care of his wife after he died! This is called friendship, don’t you understand?!” Soon, Henry’s widow uploaded a photo of a loft apartment. [Thank goodness you’re by my side to let me experience the warmth of a family again.] When I saw Jake busying himself in the kitchen in the photo, I thought it was time to end the marriage.

It's been five years since I started trying to win over Zachary Pierce. I even went so far as to have a child through IVF, hoping it would finally make him care. But no matter what I do, I can never reach 100 percent affection from him. It always stays at 99 percent. Sometimes it even drops lower. One day, exhausted and aching, I go looking for him. As I reach his room, I hear laughter coming from inside. "She still hasn't figured out the egg wasn't even hers. The moment the baby was born, Zach's affection score for her dropped to zero." "So what if she finds out? She should be grateful that her face looks so much like Yvonne's. Honestly, I'm done entertaining her. It's exhausting." At that moment, everything clicks. All the hope I've held onto, every sacrifice I've made, they were all just a joke. I turn away and say to the system, "End this for me. Send me to another world."

Aku tidak pernah membayangkan berada dalam keadaan seperti ini. Menjadi orang lain di kehidupan sekarang. Namaku Ardan Rakha Wisesa, biasa dipanggil Ardan. Bukan, bukan Ardan. Mereka lebih sering memanggilku Cupu, Culun, Kutu Buku dan sejenisnya. Ya, aku adalah anak laki-laki dengan ciri-ciri jelek, dekil dengan kacamata yang tidak pernah lepas dari kedua mataku. Mataku minus sekaligus silinder dan sudah cukup parah, untuk berobat aku tak mampu. Bahkan bisa sekolah pun aku sudah bersyukur. Satu keunggulan yang aku miliki adalah pintar. Itu juga yang membuatku bisa sekolah di sekolah elite ini. Sekolah tempat orang-orang kaya yang selalu menyombongkan kekayaan orang tuanya. Sedangkan aku? Hanya dijadikan sebagai target bullying di sekolah itu. Hingga pada suatu hari, bullying yang mereka lakukan sudah melewati batas wajar. Hingga membuatku berada dalam kondisi sekarang. Merubahku menjadi orang lain dan menghilangkan semua identitas asliku. Aku yang sekarang, Guntur Hastanta Haidar atau yang biasa dipanggil Guntur. Menjadi anak seorang dokter spesialis bedah plastik terkenal di kota itu. Lalu di mana Guntur yang asli? Ini yang kemudian menjadi teka-teki yang juga harus aku selesaikan selain misi balas dendam. Apakah orang tuaku tidak mencariku? Aku tinggal bersama ayah dan kakakku, mereka tidak pernah menganggap aku ada. Mereka membenciku karena kelahiranku menyebabkan kematian ibuku. Semua ini akan aku selesaikan dengan tuntas tanpa ada satu pun yang terlewat.
