Envy Definition

Beauty Pareech is the definition of her own name, though she is dark skinned she embodies the qualities of a beauty queen. Ang kagandahang tagglay niya lang ang maipagpapasalamat niya sa kaniya'ng walang kwentang ama dahil sa murang eda pa lamang niya ay iniwan na sila nito. Isang trahedya ang nangyari sa kanyang ina na nagtulak sa kanya upang gawing ang bagay na pagsisisihan nita sa huli. For Winsley Aushwitz as the CEO of his company, it's a mist for him to be tough, dapat wala siyang inaatrasan maliban sa katotohana'ng pinagtaksilan siya ng kanyang fiance at ng sariling ama. Kaya't isang gabi ay nagpaubaya siya sa kanyang naghihinagpos na damdamin at ininlabas niya ang galit sa kakawang babae na ani mo'y isang iton na diyamante, kakaiba. Sila ay muling nagtagpo makalipas ang apat na taon na para bang nakatadhana. Pagbigyan kaya nila ang kanilang mga sarili na mahalin ang isa't-isa now that they have a reason? Pero buhay talaga ay mapaglaro at isang sekreto ang pilit na sisira sa kanilang namumukadkad na damdamin.

What were the odds that I'd just fucked my boss and been too buzzed, too horny to clock it? Impossible. Catastrophic. My life was like a ticking bomb of fuckups already; this would only make it explode. "Get a grip, Shayle," I whispered, shaking my head hard. It can't be. -------------- What would you do if you found out you only had four months left to live? In the case of Shayle Vale, she was the definition of a plain Jane; quiet, overlooked, and freshly dumped by a boyfriend who called her ‘boring’. But when the doctor drops her death sentence, she decides ‘boring’ dies today. She made a list; Quit her job, Lose her virginity to her hot next-door neighbor, get a tattoo and Do what the fuck she wants. But life doesn’t play fair. Her shitty boss refused to accept her resignation, her neighbor was allegedly still a virgin, and nothing on her list was going according to plan. Now Shayle’s plain, safe little life is spiraling into messy office wars, late-night temptations, secrets she never saw coming and a toxic love triangle. Will she tick off her last wishes, or will fate throw her off the list completely and into the arms of two sinfully attractive men instead?

Today happens to be Yvonne Ziegler's birthday. Yvonne is Shawn Jacobson's, my husband's, newly hired personal assistant. Shawn spares no expense in buying her a villa as a birthday present, and Yvonne haughtily takes to social media to show off on the day she moves in. "I'd like everyone to know that I'm married to a wealthy man now." Shawn comments on the post, saying, "Happy birthday, my beloved Yvonne!" In the picture, Shawn's hand rests intimately on Yvonne's slender waist, leaving no doubt about their intimate relationship. In that instant, the company's group chat erupts into a frenzy of notifications, as colleagues declare their envy of Yvonne and heap praise upon her for being young and accomplished. Oscar Jagger, my childhood friend, notices the picture and immediately tags me in the group chat. He then sends me a pointed, teasing message, saying, "Shawn's display of love is so glaring! Congrats on being cheated on, Leslie!" I manage a bitter, wry smile, taking my time to type out the response. "Do you need a villa as well, Oscar? I'm happy to give you a place—a much nicer one than Shawn's, of course."

At twenty nine, she is the CEO of Vale Noir Group, admired for her intelligence, respected for her leadership, and protected by a family no one dares to cross. Adrian is kind, warm, and loyal, even as powerful men orbit her world, each drawn to her for different reasons. A brilliant lawyer who challenges her mind and tempts her restraint.
