It Is Eleven O'clock

My body matured faster than most girls my age. When I turned 18, my overprotective brother worried I’d be taken advantage of, so he asked his best friend to look after me. But the first time we met, that man's eyes never left my body. After I graduated from college, he kept crossing the line, again and again. By day, he was my boss, and by night, I was his "personal assistant." For four years, we kept our affair a secret. He molded me into exactly what he liked, and the worst part? I let him. One day, his ex-fiancée came back from overseas. He slipped out of my bed in the middle of the night and rushed to the airport to pick her up. Humiliated but unwilling to let go, I followed him there, only to watch him gently stroke another woman’s hair right in front of me. He turned to me and said, "Jennifer Huckabee, four years ago, you were the one who crawled into my bed while I was drunk. The way you're behaving now… it’s really pathetic." The way he looked at her was soft, and the way he mocked me was sharp and deliberate. I suddenly realized he was right. This was meaningless. So I lowered my head, texted my brother to tell him I’d accept the Sinclair family marriage proposal, then looked up at that man and smiled. "Alright then. Goodbye."

Alguém poderia explicar por que aquele homem sempre de cara fechada, era tão difícil de lidar?!

If my father discovers our secret, it'll cost me my career...and it'll cost Axel his life. To make matters worse, I'm falling for this man...and I think he's falling for me too.

In that moment, I abandoned all will to live, letting the sea swallow me whole. So this time, after being reborn, I choose to step aside and let her pursue her love.

Mateus Costa, o homem mais rico de Rio dos Cedros, passou três anos em coma. Durante todo esse tempo, Emilly Araújo, como sua esposa, cuidou dele com dedicação. No entanto, quando Mateus finalmente despertou, Emilly encontrou em seu celular uma mensagem comprometedora que sugeria traição: sua "deusa" havia retornado ao país. Seus amigos, que sempre a desprezaram, riam entre si: — O cisne branco voltou. Já está na hora de deixar o patinho feio para trás. Foi nesse momento que Emilly percebeu que Mateus nunca a havia amado. Ela não passava de uma piada patética. Algum tempo depois, tarde da noite, o poderoso Presidente Mateus recebeu os papéis do divórcio. Motivo: incapacidade do marido. Furioso, ele foi atrás dela, apenas para encontrar sua ex-esposa, antes um "patinho feio", trajando um elegante vestido longo, irradiando uma beleza serena sob as luzes brilhantes. A mulher que ele desprezara havia se transformado em uma renomada especialista médica. Ao vê-lo se aproximar, a Sra. Costa sorriu de leve e, em um tom brincalhão, disse: — Presidente Mateus, veio marcar uma consulta com um urologista?

Quando meu pai me pediu para escolher um dos irmãos da Família Martins, amigos de longa data da nossa família, para casar, eu escolhi Renan Martins. Apenas porque ele era o homem por quem eu fui apaixonada em segredo por treze anos. Mas, no dia do nosso casamento, sua meia-irmã se jogou do terraço do hotel. Ela deixou uma carta escrita com sangue, desejando a mim e a Renan um casamento feliz e que envelhecêssemos juntos. Só então eu soube que os dois haviam tido um amor secreto por muitos anos. Na cerimônia, Renan perdeu a compostura e anunciou que renunciaria à vida secular, me deixando sozinha e desamparada no altar. Desde então, ele passou a vida rezando por sua meia-irmã. Eu o odiei por ter me enganado, me apeguei àquele casamento e nos torturamos mutuamente. Até que fomos sequestrados e, para me salvar, ele se matou junto com os sequestradores. Antes de morrer, ele olhou para mim e disse: — Pérola, a culpa foi minha por ter escondido isso de você. — Mas a minha vida e a da minha irmã já são suficientes para quitar essa dívida, não são? — Na próxima vida, lembre-se de não me escolher. Quando abri os olhos novamente, eu havia voltado ao dia em que meu pai me pediu para escolher um noivo. Desta vez, eu, Pérola Lima, escolheria firmemente seu irmão mais velho, Davi Martins.

Meu companheiro, Luther Evans, gastou 20 mil dólares em duas passagens de primeira classe no Moonlight Express para a Costa de Vespera. No momento em que estávamos prestes a embarcar, ele me puxou de lado e deu o meu lugar para minha irmã adotiva, Zoey Turner. Ele explicou: — Só restou um assento vazio no trem, e o filho da Zoey nunca viu o oceano antes. Esta é a oportunidade perfeita. Crianças não podem ser separadas de suas mães, então eu vou levá-los primeiro e deixá-los acomodados, depois volto para buscar você. Eu concordei e desci do trem, observando-o desaparecer à distância. Assim que chegaram à praia, um amigo perguntou a Luther por que eu não tinha ido junto. Ele estava ocupado inflando uma boia de piscina para Zoey, respondendo casualmente sem levantar os olhos. — Moonlight Express passa a cada três dias. Avery Smith pode simplesmente comprar sua própria passagem e vir mais tarde. Vou comprar alguns presentes para compensá-la. Ela é muito compreensiva e não vai ficar brava comigo por muito tempo. Um sorriso amargo surgiu nos cantos da minha boca. A família inteira sempre favoreceu Zoey, e agora até meu próprio companheiro não era diferente. Como ninguém queria me ver de qualquer forma, decidi que iria embora em três dias.
