Just Another Pretty Face

A young lady, Lucia, was adopted by grandpa James when she was a teenager. She was taught to become the heiress of her foster family, but she had to hide her identity, from the public. Why? Hugh was assigned as Lucia's bodyguard, by grandpa James, but he hid his real identity from Lucia after he made a deal with grandpa James. He left his pack because of the promise he made to Licia, and also because he didn't want to become Alpha. What will happen when Lucia finds out about Hugh's identity? What will happen when Lucia's identity is revealed? What are the hidden dangers in their love story?

Dante and I have been married for three years. But he never knew my real name. We’d had countless arguments over the past three years—over the petty details of everyday life. I can no longer tolerate such a ridiculous life like a puppet today. Calliope, that’s what he called me, but it was actually my twin sister’s name. My husband may never know that the woman who married him three years ago was a substitute bride. Three years ago, my sister abandoned us and left before the wedding with her lover. To prevent the anger of the Laurent’s, my family had no choice but to let me marry Dante instead of my sister. My phone rang again and again, I finally picked it up. "Throwing another tantrum, are you? Calliope, tell me what you are capable to do if you can not even be merely a housewife?" I knew Calliope could always get her way through her sweet voice and innocent smiles. She can be an obedient and perfect wife—something I could never manage. "Dante. I’m not joking.” I didn't know if my voice sounded a little sad. "You can’t be serious—" For the first time, I heard a tremor in the man's words. He doesn't love me. He likes to be in control. When he realized that his puppet was losing control, he began to panic. It's time for this farce to end. I clenched my phone and spoke to the man on the other end in the calmest voice of my life. "Dante, let's get a divorce." But what shocked me more than hearing Dante's answer was the person who suddenly appeared in front of me. Calliope, my twin sister, who disappeared for the whole three years. “Are you crazy? Why on earth would you want a divorce? That's Dante Laurent, a billionaire heir, every woman's dream！” “Calliope? Our parents and I all thought you would never show up again. I entered this wrong marriage because of your escape. Dante... he’s not that a husband out of your dreams.” “Seraphina, put away your ridiculous niceness and compassion. I have returned this time to take back what is MINE and my place.” She lifted my hand with a sneer and removed the wedding ring from my finger.

Ma sœur et moi avons eu un accident de voiture. Mon cœur s'est rompu et j'ai eu besoin d'une opération immédiate pour survivre. Ma mère, qui était la directrice de son hôpital, a envoyé tous les médecins examiner ma sœur seulement pour vérifier son état. Elle n'a presque pas été blessée. Je l'ai suppliée de me sauver mais elle a perdu patience. Elle a crié : « Ce n'est pas le moment de détourner l'attention de ta sœur ! Elle a failli avoir une fracture. » Puis je suis morte. Je me suis souvenu de l'endroit où cela est arrivé. C'était une salle d'opération glaciale.

Quand mon mari m'a forcée, enceinte de huit mois, à accompagner son amie d'enfance pour faire du saut à l'élastique, je n'ai ni crié ni protesté. J'ai simplement hoché la tête et j'ai accepté. Tout cela parce que, dans ma vie précédente, son amie d'enfance était de mauvaise humeur. Pour la rendre heureuse, mon mari avait proposé de l'aider à réaliser un vœu. Elle lui avait dit que son plus grand souhait était que quelqu'un puisse l'accompagner pour faire du saut à l'élastique. Mon mari, qui avait le vertige, avait entendu ses paroles et avait immédiatement proposé que ce soit moi qui l'accompagne. J'avais refusé sur-le-champ en prenant ma grossesse comme excuse. Après avoir été refusée par moi, son amie d'enfance n'était pas contente et avait finalement choisi d'aller boire dans un bar pour se changer les idées. Là-bas, elle avait été droguée et elle avait perdu sa pureté. Après cela, accablée de douleur, elle avait laissé une lettre d'adieu à mon mari et elle s'était suicidée. « Si ce jour-là je n'étais pas allée au bar, est-ce que tout aurait été différent ? » En lisant la lettre, mon mari m'avait attrapée par le cou. « Pourquoi tu n'as pas accepté d'accompagner Julie ? » Finalement, il m'avait étranglée à mort. L'enfant que je portais n'avait pas vu le jour et était parti avec moi. Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, je suis revenue au jour où mon mari m'a demandé d'accompagner son amie d'enfance pour faire du saut à l'élastique…

Quand il m'est arrivé une crise d'appendicite, mes parents, mon frère et mon fiancé étaient tous occupés à fêter l'anniversaire de ma petite sœur. Allongée devant la salle d'opération, j'ai appelé désespérément toute ma famille et mes proches, espérant trouver quelqu'un pour signer le consentement d'opération, mais chaque appel s'est conclu par raccrocher. Mon fiancé, Guillaume, m'a envoyé un message après m'avoir raccroché : « Charlotte, arrête de ton caprice. C'est le passage à l'âge adulte aujourd'hui pour Doria. On en parlera après le banquet s'il y a une urgence. » En lisant son message, j'ai tout compris. J'ai posé mon téléphone et ai signé calmement le consentement moi-même. C'était la quatre-vingt-dix-neuvième fois qu'ils me négligeaient pour s'occuper de Doria. J'ai décidé d'arrêter de mendier leur attention. Je n'étais plus triste de leur favoritisme. Au contraire, je me pliais à toutes leurs demandes. Ils pensaient tous que je suis devenue sage et obéissante, mais ils ignoraient que j'étais sur le point de les quitter pour toujours.

"You broke the law of this house when you fell in love with me, your own stepbrother. And now, you’ve broken the law of this country by killing someone. Tell me, Hariette. How will you defend yourself from the crime you’ve committed, when you couldn’t even defend the love you once felt for me?” Napagbintangan si Hariette ng mga kapitbahay na siya ang pumatay sa kanyang tiyuhin matapos makita ng mga ito na hawak niya ang patalim habang nakahandusay sa sahig ang duguan na katawan nito. Inaresto siya ng mga pulis at ikinulong nang walang matibay na ebidensya laban sa kanya. Umatras ang kanyang abogado sa paghawak ng kanyang kaso dahil ayaw niyang magsalita at ipagtanggol ang sarili. Ayaw niyang sabihin ang totoo na ang kanyang Tiya Gilda ang pumatay sa asawa nito. Wala na siyang makuhang libreng abogado kaya naman napilitan siyang humingi ng tulong sa pamilyang minsan na ring kumupkop sa kanya bago siya napunta sa poder ng kanyang tiyahin, at iyon ay ang mga Avery. Noong una, ayaw itong tanggapin ni Justin, dahil hindi ito humahawak ng kaso ng mga kriminal. Ang katwiran niya, bakit nya ipagtatanggol ang mga taong nagkasala? Ang nararapat sa mga ito ay maparusahan. Pero sa kalaunan ay tinanggap niya rin ito, ngunit bago pa man ang lahat ay nagkasundo sila na babayaran niya ito sa paraang gusto ng binatang abogado, at pumayag naman siya. Pero paano kung ang hilingin nitong bayad ay ang pakasalan siya ng sikreto? Ang akala niya ay may nararamdaman din ito sa kanya. Iyon pala, gusto lang nitong turuan ng leksyon ang babaeng nang-iwan dito. Ang babaeng pinagselosan niya kaya siya lumayas sa bahay ng pamilya Avery. Sa pagitan ng hustisya at pag-ibig, sino ang tunay na huhusgahan? Ang nagkasala, o ang nagmahal?

Depois que tranquei a faculdade, meus pais não me pressionaram. Mas a amiga de infância do meu namorado, que sempre cultivou a imagem de ser uma pessoa superinteligente, me ligou. Eu estava ocupada aproveitando a vida no interior, cultivando uma horta, nadando no riacho, sem tempo algum para programar. Na vida passada, ela entregou, um dia antes de mim, um projeto de programação idêntico ao meu. Todos me insultaram, dizendo que eu era desavergonhada, acusando-me de plágio e fraude. Tentei me explicar, mas ninguém acreditou em mim. Depois, ela ainda fez lives, caluniando-me na internet, dizendo que eu praticava bullying no campus. Atacaram minha família nas redes sociais de maneira enlouquecida, meus pais, tentando fugir de perseguidores extremistas, acabaram sofrendo um acidente de carro e faleceram. Não suportando o golpe, saltei de um prédio alto, morta sem poder descansar em paz. Até o último instante, enquanto minha consciência se dissipava, eu não conseguia entender o que havia acontecido. Era claramente o fruto do meu próprio esforço, por que alguém conseguiu publicar antes de mim? Quando abri os olhos novamente, eu, Sílvia Simões, voltei para o dia anterior ao incidente do plágio.

After three years of marriage, James Chancer’s high school sweetheart came back to town. The same day, Sarah Sanders found divorce papers on her desk from the man she'd given her heart to for the past three years. Outside the courthouse, James poured his heart out to his first love,"I never even touched her in all these years. It's always been you." That was the final straw for Sarah. Writing off their marriage as a complete waste, she dove back into her career and became more successful than ever. That's when everyone finally realized what James had thrown away - Mrs. Chancer wasn't just a pretty face, but a wealthy powerhouse. A true catch in every sense. Three months later, James called her in the dead of night, his voice thick with regret, "Sarah, I made a huge mistake..." All he heard was her drowsy voice, “Zac, who's calling?" The man beside her ended the call with a smile, pulling her closer for a kiss, "Just another spam call, babe."
