"You must regret calling off our engagement, right?!" I smiled faintly as my ex-fiancé lifted his chin proudly. "I don't regret it one bit for throwing out trash like you." Ethan was stunned. He couldn't accept that I had the courage to confront him. His pride had also been trampled upon when I called him 'trash.' Ethan raised one hand, about to slap me. However, his hand was caught by a large, muscular hand. "Uncle Nathaniel?" Ethan was shocked. His knees suddenly went weak at his uncle's sharp, cold gaze. "Be polite to your aunt." Ethan's eyes widened. He was even more shocked when Nathaniel's hand moved from my waist and embraced me affectionately. Ethan couldn't believe it. The ex-fiancée he'd left was now his aunt?!

Lumaki si Celestine Navarro sa bahay na kailanman ay hindi naging tahanan. Sa ilalim ng pang-aapi ng kanyang madrasta na si Margarita at ng maldita niyang stepsister na si Veronica, natutunan niyang maging matatag, tahimik, pero palaban. Isang araw, bigla siyang pinapirma sa isang arranged marriage contract—isang kasal na hindi niya maintindihan. Wala siyang ideya kung sino ang lalaki sa papel, at tanging sinabi lang ng abogado ay: “Mas gusto niyang manatiling pribado. Pero simula ngayon, nasa ilalim ka ng kanyang proteksyon.” Ang lalaking iyon ay si Adrian Cruz—isang malamig, makapangyarihang Bilyonaryo at CEO sa isang malaking kumpanya na sanay makuha ang gusto niya. Sa harap ng mundo, isa siyang taong walang emosyon at walang kahinaan. Ngunit sa likod ng kanyang katahimikan, may lihim siyang dahilan: minsan niyang nasaksihan kung paanong hinamak si Celestine ng sarili nitong pamilya. At mula noon, hindi na siya mapalagay. Tahimik niyang inayos ang kasunduan ng kasal—isang paraan para masiguro na walang sinumang makakasakit kay Celestine muli. Habang patuloy siyang binabastos at minamaliit ng mga Navarro, patago namang nakamasid sa kanya ang lalaking handang ipaglaban siya… kahit hindi pa niya kilala. Hanggang isang gabi, nakatanggap siya ng mensahe mula sa hindi kilalang numero: “Hindi mo na kailangang harapin sila mag-isa.” —A.C. Hindi niya alam, ang lalaking iyon ay ang mismong asawa niyang hindi pa niya nakikita—ang lalaking tahimik pero mapanganib magmahal. At kapag dumating ang araw na mabunyag ang katotohanan, malalaman ng lahat… na ang babaeng minamaliit nila ay asawa ng pinakamakapangyarihang lalaki sa lungsod.

Paggising sa umaga ay ni ayaw niyang makilala ang lalaking nakasiping at tanging ang tattoo lamang nito sa likod ang kanyang naaalala. Sinubukan niyang kalimutan iyon at ipokus ang sarili sa kumpanya lalo pa't malapit na silang matalo ng isang Levi Archer Alcantara na kanyang kinasuklaman sa taglay na kahambogan at isa ang lalaki sa suspect niya sa pagkamatay ng kanyang pamilya. Ngunit paano kung magbunga ng kambal ang isang gabing dala ng kalasingan? At paano kung makita niya ang tattoo sa likod mismo ng isang Levi Archer Alcantara na kanyang kaaway? At paano siya magiging masaya nang tuluyan kung nakatali pa siya sa dati niyang asawa?

I just closed a deal worth 50 million. The room did its job, so I went to the reception to check out, and I got myself a bottle of water worth 2 dollars. That very same day, I got an email from the company accusing me of misusing company funds. They canceled three months' worth of KPI from my records and fined me 5,000 dollars. I ignored that, thinking that it was a mistake some new guy in finance made. When I went to work the next day, my access card was denied. It was canceled. I couldn't even get into the building. Furious, I called my CEO fiance, but his secretary took the call instead. "How many times do I have to tell you to follow the rules when it comes to money? Did you tell finance about that bottle of water? No? Then that's against the rules! Everyone else follows the rules, so why can't you? You're a veteran!" The CEO chimed in, "Christina, you're a veteran of the company. You must be an example. You're not allowed back to work until you finish your 8000-word reflection and read it out loud at the all-employee meeting!" They tossed the phone aside, and a moment later, moans of delight and passion traveled through the air. Stone-faced, I hung up and called our competitor's CEO. "I've got a 50-million-dollar deal and a sales manager who just got fired for you. Are you taking that deal?"
