Na véspera do meu noivado, uma notícia bombástica explodiu nas redes sociais: a sugar baby do meu noivo tinha acabado de dar à luz. O escândalo estava em todo lugar. Antes mesmo que eu pudesse confrontar Thiago Monteiro, ele se antecipou a explicar com a calma de quem não devia nada: — Isso não passa de um acidente. Concentre-se no jantar de noivado. Além disso, seu pai está em estado terminal. Cancelar essa união agora não seria vantajoso para nossas famílias. Naquela noite, Thiago sequer apareceu no jantar. Em vez disso, postou no Instagram uma foto do recém-nascido. — Tenho cuidado do bebê, então não tenho tempo para você. Na minha família, há gerações só nasce um herdeiro por vez. Essa criança é muito importante. — Disse ele, limpando a boca do bebê com delicadeza, sem culpa. — Mas fique tranquila. Quando o bebê completar um mês, mando para a Inglaterra. Em ocasiões importantes, você pode aparecer como mãe dele. O título de Sra. Monteiro será sempre seu. Fixei o olhar na aliança idêntica à minha, agora um símbolo vazio. Soltei uma risada amarga: — Thiago, é melhor cancelarmos o noivado. Ele riu, carregado de desdém: — Vai causar tudo isso por bobagem? Pare de agir como criança. Sem hesitar, encerrei a videochamada e disquei o número particular de Henrique Monteiro, pai dele. — Ouvi dizer que procura uma nova esposa. Que tal considerar a mim? — Perguntei, acariciando meu ventre com um sorriso irônico. — Tenho fertilidade invejável. Quantos filhos quiser, posso dar. "A família Monteiro sempre teve tão poucos herdeiros que chega a ser melancólico. Acho que está na hora de eu garantir que Thiago ganhe mais alguns irmãos para animar as coisas."

I, Daphne Thorn, am an impoverished woman from the slums. William Blackburn, on the other hand, is the son of the richest man in Wylland. Unexpectedly, the two of us who share such vastly different identities end up being together. So far, we've tried out various difficult positions in our bouts of passion during our secret rendezvouses in secluded areas. Like the madman he is, William often torments me in every session. I'm so exhausted that I'm about to fall asleep. That's when a notification pops up on William's phone, which is sitting next to me. So, I take a peek at it. "William, my stomach hurts a lot! I'm suffering so much right now!" It's a text from someone named "Ellie". All the exhaustion in me disappears. I can feel my chest tightening up in discomfort. Once William is done with his shower, he leaves the bathroom and picks up his phone. "You should sleep first. I'm heading out," he says. When I see William turning his back on me, I blurt out, "Are you going to meet that childhood sweetheart of yours?" William wheels around to look at me. Suddenly, he moves to lift my chin. There is a trace of wariness in his eyes. "Don't go around sticking your nose in my business, Daphne. I like my woman docile and obedient." But I end up stalking William all the way to Royale Hotel, where I witness him visiting Elaine Moore, his childhood sweetheart. He coaxes her as though she's the most precious treasure in the world. I don't have the courage to question William in person. But still, I want to know who he thinks is more important to him—me or Elaine? So, I give him a call. "William, my gastritis is acting up again! It hurts so much! Can you drive me to the hospital?" I said. I use the same tactic that Elaine had used earlier. That night, I keep waiting for William, and yet he never returns to me. That's when I decide to not love him anymore.

En vísperas de la boda, la noticia de que la amante del prometido había dado a luz se volvió un escándalo. Julian Espinoza no esperó a que yo lo confrontara y habló con indiferencia. —No fue más que un accidente. Tú encárgate primero de la fiesta de compromiso. —Además, tu papá está en fase terminal de cáncer de estómago. Cancelar la alianza ahora no le conviene a ninguna de las dos familias. Esa misma noche faltó a la cena de compromiso, pero en sus redes sociales subió la foto de un bebé envuelto en mantas. Cuando marqué una videollamada, apareció dándole de comer con un biberón al recién nacido. —Últimamente estoy cuidando al niño y no tengo tiempo para ti. Ya sabes, en mi familia solo queda una rama masculina, el hijo es prioridad. Limpió la leche de la comisura de los labios del bebé y añadió: —Pero tranquila, cuando cumpla el mes lo mando a Inglaterra. En las fiestas importantes basta con que te muestres como si fueras su madre. El lugar de señora de la familia Espinoza siempre será tuyo. Yo me quedé mirando el anillo en su dedo anular, idéntico al mío, y solté una risa. —Este compromiso queda anulado. Él bufó con frialdad: —Armas tanto escándalo por una tontería. No seas tan caprichosa. Colgué de golpe la videollamada y marqué al número privado de su padre. —Dicen que anda buscando nueva esposa, ¿por qué no me considera a mí? Acariciando mi vientre, solté una risa baja: —Después de todo, tengo facilidad para embarazarme; los hijos que usted quiera, se los puedo dar. Qué soledad la de una familia con un solo heredero. Yo misma le daré varios hermanos para que al menos haya ruido en la casa.

My family hates me for causing my brother's death. From then on, I become a child no one loves. Meanwhile, my cousin, Evelyn Green, who looks like my brother, becomes the apple of my parents' eyes. From the age of ten to 18, my days are a cycle of beatings and forced apologies. On my 18th birthday, Evelyn wears a gorgeous gown and basks in everyone's adoration, while I'm shoved around in a maid's uniform and hit like I'm not even human. In my darkest moment, Morgan Oakley, the mafia boss, saves me. He takes me home, and step by step, wins his way into my heart. Because of him, I learn what love can feel like. He treats me like a treasure and promises me forever. However, on the day we're supposed to register our marriage, he keeps me waiting for a whole day and night. He never shows up. As I'm about to leave, my phone starts buzzing. A text from Morgan pops up. "Jasmine, I'm sorry. I ran into an enemy and couldn't make it to the city hall. A storm's coming, so make sure you get home quick!" My heart clenches in panic. I'm about to text back and ask if he's okay when Evelyn's message comes right after his. "Jasmine, I'm the one he loves. He skipped marrying you today because of me. You must be devastated, right?" Then, she sends a video. In it, Morgan holds her gently, his voice soft as he comforts her. "Evie, don't cry. You once saved my life, so I'll do anything for you. If you don't want me to marry Jasmine, then I won't. I love you. I only took her in so I could keep her close. That way, she'd be right there when you needed blood." My parents were off to the side. They chimed in tenderly, "Don't cry, Evie. Morgan loves you. He only pursued Jasmine because of your condition. You have a coagulation disorder and need transfusions of Rh-negative blood whenever you get hurt." I stagger back when I hear that, dropping my phone to the ground. So, Morgan's sudden passion is laced with poison. He only pretends to love me just so he can turn me into Evelyn's walking blood bank! Everyone goes to so much trouble to hide the truth from me just so Evelyn doesn't need to suffer from her condition! Rain mixes with my tears as they slide down my face. I stare at my phone on the pavement as bitterness floods me. A thought forms—I want to leave them forever. I want to disappear so they'll never find me again.
