Jose Mari Chan A Perfect Christmas

Six years ago, a corporate acquisition deal I handled went up in flames, and 50 billion dollars vanished into thin air. Bankrupt investors spray red paint all over my front door for a year straight. Dad died from a stroke, and Mom lost her mind and disappeared. I ended up doing six years in prison for embezzlement. After I got out, I changed my name and started delivering food in downtown, running myself ragged for a few bucks per delivery. But then my ex-wife, Shirley Pearce, showed up, and the entire delivery station ground to a halt. She had become a financial powerhouse, a regular on the covers of business magazines. Reporters blocked my delivery scooter, shoving microphones in my face. "Mr. Marcus Quinn, Ms. Pearce has been single for six years, paid off all your debts, and she's been waiting for you to come home!" I stared at that perfectly made-up woman with her adoring eyes and felt nothing but disgust. That so-called "devoted" ex-wife of mine? Six years ago, she had forged company seals to help her boy toy short the stock market. Then, when everything fell apart, she threw me under the bus to save herself.

La sœur adoptive de Nolan Leclair a simplement bu la tasse dans la piscine. Il m’a alors ligotée et jetée dans la piscine, ne me laissant qu’une bouche d’aération de deux centimètres. Il a dit : « Pour la peine de Clara, tu dois en souffrir plus ! » Je ne savais pas nager. Je n’avais d’autre choix que de m’efforcer de respirer, les larmes aux yeux, suppliant qu’il me vienne en aide. Mais il ne m’a fait que des reproches d’une voix froide : « Sans punition, tu ne seras jamais sage. » Je ne pouvais que me débattre désespérément… Cinq jours plus tard, il a finalement fléchi. Il a décidé de mettre fin à cette punition. « Je te pardonne pour cette fois. Si cela se reproduit, tu vas voir de quel bois je me chauffe. » Pourtant, il a ignoré que mon corps décédé a déjà gonflé.

Trahie par ceux en qui elle avait le plus confiance, elle a tout perdu—son mariage, son amitié et sa sécurité. Mais elle a refusé de rester à terre. Avec une détermination sans faille, elle a bâti son empire depuis zéro, devenant la PDG de la société de design d’intérieur la plus convoitée du pays. Aujourd’hui, son ex est désespéré, suppliant pour une seconde chance… mais son cœur ne se laisse pas facilement conquérir. Un milliardaire puissant et énigmatique se dresse sur son chemin, remettant en question tout ce qu’elle pensait vouloir. Les anciennes passions s’affrontent aux nouveaux désirs, la loyauté lutte contre la tentation, et la frontière entre amour et ambition devient floue. Cédera-t-elle à celui qui l’a autrefois brisée, ou risquera-t-elle tout pour l’homme dont l’armure glaciale n’a jamais montré la moindre fissure ?

Je suis revenue à la vie. Cette fois, je n'ai plus empêché mon compagnon de ramener son amie d'enfance enceinte à la maison pour s'occuper d'elle. J'ai même proposé de rompre notre lien d'union, afin de lui laisser librement choisir Élise Richard, celle qu'il a toujours préférée. Je créais volontairement chaque occasion pour qu'ils soient seuls ensemble, tandis que je me retirais en silence. Tout cela parce que, dans ma vie précédente, au moment de mourir, Marc Sien m'en voulait encore d'avoir refusé que son amie d'enfance vienne habiter chez nous pour sa grossesse. Sur le chemin du départ, elle avait perdu son enfant et n'a plus jamais pu avoir d'enfant. Il m'avait dit que, quand je serais morte, il se mettrait avec Élise, qu'il prendrait soin d'elle et réparerait le tort qu'il lui avait causé. Alors, dans cette nouvelle vie, je ne m'y suis plus opposée. J'ai choisi de partir, pour les aider à combler leurs regrets… Mais pourquoi, après mon départ, Marc s'est-il mis à me chercher partout comme un fou, en suppliant mon retour ?

Ce jour-là, j'ai eu une fausse couche accompagnée d'une hémorragie. Le même jour, mon mari a publié une photo des petits pieds d'un nouveau-né dans ses moments de Facebook avec un texte : « Bienvenu dans ce monde, mon petit ange. Papa te protègera toujours. » J'ai composé son numéro de téléphone, les mains toutes tremblantes. « Nous avons perdu notre bébé. Peux-tu venir à l'hôpital s'il te plaît ? » De l'autre bout du fil, le cri d'un nouveau-né a résonné dans mes oreilles, ainsi que la voix impatiente de mon mari : « Il faut que tu acceptes le destin. Prends soin de toi-même. Rose vient d'accoucher et a besoin de moi. Je ne peux pas la laisser toute seule. » Sur ces mots, il m'a raccroché au nez, me laissant m'effondrer seule sur le lit froid de l'hôpital. Après un long moment, j'ai essuyé mes larmes et a appelé le numéro de Louis Dulac, un grand rival de mon mari. « Épouse-moi et je t'apporterai toute la famille Dubois en dot. Tout ce que je te demande est de faire tomber Joseph Fouquet. Es-tu partant ? »
