I'm Done Waiting

At the banquet to welcome her home from her studies abroad, my fiancee, Sienna Vaughn, shows up hand-in-hand with her foreign boyfriend, Jacques Castillo. She announces that she is calling off our engagement. Her parents, Harold Vaughn and Marissa Jenning, beg desperately for me to try to win her back, for the sake of all those years we spent together during our childhood. But this time, I refuse. "Let's end the engagement. From today onward, we'll go our separate ways," I say. … In my previous life, I had taken pity on Harold and Marissa and sincerely tried to keep Sienna by my side. In the end, she agreed to marry me. But three years later, my shares were siphoned away, my company went bankrupt, and I was left with massive debts. Unable to handle the burden, my parents, Ralph Hale and Emily Pierce, passed away. Sienna, nestled in Jacques' arms, spat, "You owe me this!" … Now that I am given a second chance at life, I return to the very day she returned from abroad. This time, she can marry whoever she wants. She thinks that I'm marrying her to save my company from ruin. But little does she know that the one really headed for bankruptcy is her family.

  Lyra Daniel, an aspiring fashion designer, is on a mission to save her sick husband, Felix Thomson. Lyra crosses paths with Dante Cooper, a billionaire heir in need of a contract wife to appease his meddling family.    “I will give you $500,000 once we get married and $500,000 after the divorce is finalized,”  Lyra couldn't accept the deal because of her love for Felix.    But when Felix finds out about the contract...   "I swear to you, Lyra. I will never let you down. If you give me this second chance at life, then I promise you my life because…”   Unknown to Lyra, Felix's plea is part of deception to escape their marriage. She soon finds herself trapped in Dante's world, where he and his family view her as nothing but a gold digger.    Felix stopped responding to Lyra’s call, knowing that there was a high possibility that Dante wouldn't pay the balance of the contract.

Good only for her Kind only to her Deadly when it comes to her. LETHU My life was normal, as normal as life can get. Alone, lonely, ‘I hate my job’ kind of normal until I found out all along I had not really been alone. For six years he has been in my life. For six years he has watched, touched, and held my body as if it was his to hold. It is until I am kidnapped that I meet him, my stalker. No one will touch me with him still breathing. He would burn the whole world to see me smile. Deep, toe-curling, and unconditional love. He would kill for me and he would die for me. He is obsessed and I am obsessed with being obsessively his.  

As soon as I graduated from university, I suggested to my three roommates that we should rent a place together. The place I found was near our workplace, and it was cheap as well. It was much better than the house they used to rent in the suburbs. During the first three months of renting the place together, everything seemed fine. One day, I got off work early and heard them talking in the living room. "I did some research online. The rent of the houses in this area is at least 2 grand a month. But ours is only 800 dollars a month. How about we rent the master bedroom out for 800 dollars? That way, we won't have to pay any rent." "Alright, I'm in! Why does Jessica always get to sleep in the master bedroom? Even if she covered all the bills of this house, how much would that cost anyway?" "I've had it with her arrogant attitude. Thinking of her being homeless makes me want to laugh!" I laughed inwardly. 'You want to see me homeless? But I'm the landlord!'

Sa isang mundong pinaghaharian ng yaman at kapangyarihan, ipinanganak si Elena Cruz sa kahirapan. Maganda siya—mala-porselanang kutis, brown ang mata, at may alindog na kahit sa simpleng ayos ay nakakakuha ng pansin. Pero sa likod ng ganda, puno ng sugat ang kanyang buhay—ama niyang lulong sa sugal at inang kasambahay sa pamilya ng mga Monteverde, isa sa pinakamayamang angkan sa bansa. Isang gabi, nagbago ang lahat. Sa desperasyon at gutom, nagnakaw ang kanyang ama mula sa mansion ng mga Monteverde—isang kasalanang nahuli sa CCTV. At nang mabunyag ito, nasira hindi lang ang tiwala, kundi pati ang buhay nilang mag-ina. Sa gitna ng kahihiyan, pagkakautang, at apoy na sumunog sa kanilang tahanan, namatay ang kanyang ina sa konsensya at pangamba, habang nagtatago naman ang ama. Walang ibang natira kay Elena kundi ang pangalang minantsahan ng kasalanan. Hanggang sa isang gabi, muling tumagpo ang landas nila ni Lance Monteverde—ang bilyonaryong CEO na anak ng among pinagsilbihan ng kanyang ina. Malamig, makapangyarihan, at walang pakialam sa pag-ibig. Ngunit sa kabila ng lahat, tila may kakaibang puwersang nagtulak sa kanya na iligtas si Elena mula sa kamay ng mga mapang-abusong nanghihingi ng utang. Kapalit ng kaligtasan, isang alok ang binitawan ni Lance: “Babayaran ko ang lahat ng utang mo, Elena. Pero may kapalit... ikaw.” Sa pagitan ng utang, galit, at pag-ibig na unti-unting tumutubo sa gitna ng poot—mapipilitan si Elena na maging asawa ng lalaking kinaiinisan at kinatatakutan niya… ang lalaking unti-unti ring matututo kung ano ang tunay na halaga ng pag-ibig at pagkatao. Ngunit sa mundo ng mga Monteverde, walang libre. At sa dulo ng bawat pangako, may kapalit na kalayaan.
