Kapit Bahay Scandal

A one-night stand with a billionaire was never Celina’s dream. It was her only choice. When Naomi, the arrogant daughter of her mother’s wealthy employer, corners her with an impossible ultimatum, Celina is forced into the arms of Bryan, a man she believes to be a stranger, in exchange for her mother’s freedom. Her mother, a maid who has spent years serving Naomi’s powerful family, is falsely accused of theft, and the price for her release is Celina’s innocence. That night should have ended in silence, buried forever. But fate has other plans. Days later, Celina discovers that the mysterious man from that night is not only Naomi’s fiance but also her new boss. The revelation shatters her world, binding her to a man she should hate but whose presence awakens emotions she cannot control. As whispers, betrayal, and a devastating scandal threaten to destroy her reputation, Celina’s heart is torn between protecting her ailing mother and untangling the complicated bond she now shares with Bryan. Caught between sacrifice and desire, loyalty and love, Celina must face a truth that could change everything: sometimes, the cost of saving the one you love is giving your heart to the last man you ever expected.

Princess Aurelia Valeon was never believed to be destined for the crown. However, with the abdication of her brother in favor of love, she was dragged back into the palace to fulfill a role she had never asked for. One night before heading back home, Aurelia made an impulsive decision with a stranger, never expecting to see him again- until he showed up at the palace as her appointed new personal knight, Cassian Draven. Their secret connection develops into a perilous affair that threatens to ruin Aurelia's reign. The royal council wants to marry her off to a nobleman they consider controllable-Lord Alistair Morcant wants to be powerful; Alistair's sister, Clara, however, is ready to spy, dig, and expose anything for it. When Clara clandestinely acquires proof of Aurelia's illicit affair, the ensuing scandal shakes the foundation of the kingdom. Cassian is accused, Aurelia's very throne is endangered, and she realizes that everyone is watching her every move. Right when everything seems to fall apart, Cassian's secret is discovered. He happens to be a lost son of a foreign king who has been hidden since childhood. That royal blood instantly changes the rules and Aurelia decides to use all her might to strike back. Power changes. Enemies are forged. Allegiances are forgotten. And a queen must truly discover what she is ready to risk for her true love.

When Alexander Smith stands in front of me and says he's going to marry someone else, that's when I realize he's been reborn too. I remember our 20 years of love in our past life. A plane crash. And then, rebirth. "This is to save Sophia," he says. "In our past life, she was sold to a Vostmark oligarch after her father's political scandal. Not long after, she took her own life due to abuse. I can't let that tragedy happen again, so I need to get engaged to her." As he speaks, he hands me an orange prescription bottle. "If you take this, you'll forget me for a little while. You won't feel the pain. It's just seven days. Once her father's scandal blows over, you'll stop the medication and your memory will return. Then I'll end the engagement and officially propose to you." I stare at the bottle, knowing it's a lie. Not the part about Sophia's suicide. The lie is about the drug. He thinks it only causes temporary memory loss. But I know better. The suppressant causes permanent damage to emotional memory. The seven-day countdown isn't the time it takes for my memories to return. It's the time it takes for my love for him to die.

“Why do you keep looking at me like I’ve died before?” Elion’s voice trembles—half accusation, half fear. Cale freezes. He shouldn’t know. He shouldn’t remember. But he does. Every scream. Every last breath. Every timeline where Elion slipped through his hands. After a viral scandal destroys his career, Elion joins a reality dating show hoping to fix his reputation. The last thing he expects is a partner who knows his coffee order, his sleeping habits, his childhood lullaby—things he never shared on camera. And when time itself begins to glitch around him, Elion starts asking the question Cale has spent lifetimes trying to avoid: “Have we… met before?” Because Cale isn’t human. He’s a reaper who has rewound time again and again just to keep Elion alive—each reset costing him pieces of his memory. Now the countdown is almost over. One more death. One final rewind. One impossible choice: Save Elion… or stay with him as a mortal who remembers nothing. When a romance made for television turns into a battle against destiny, how far will a reaper go to protect the only soul he has ever chosen?

Elijah Dawson had everything—a billion-dollar empire, a name that commanded respect, and the kind of life others could only dream of.

But there’s one thing he can’t own: Eloise Hart, his late brother’s wife, and the woman who’s haunted him for years. Eloise is chaos in human form. Tattooed, reckless, and unapologetic, she lives her life with zero regrets. The world sees her as a disaster waiting to happen, a woman who drags Elijah’s name into scandal every chance she gets. But what they don’t know is that she’s the one woman he’s never been able to let go. Elijah knows he should stay away, that every time he’s near her, he risks losing everything—his reputation, his empire, and the respect he has to his late brother. He swore he’d never cross that line, but how long can he resist when Eloise is the one thing he’s always wanted but could never have? Because for Eloise, she could fuck every man on the planet, but not him. Not her brother-in-law.

Aceia Louise Christenson was living her life to the fullest. She was using her family wealth to live her lavish life, but that ended when she got into a scandal: "You were kissing a married man. What were you thinking? I didn't raise you as a family wrecker." That was what her father said, and she knew that she was doomed. But what makes her feel more wretched is when she hears about her father's decision.

Would she allow it to happen or just run away? Hudson Blake Vasco was the successor of the Vasco chain of hotels and Rixco Wine enterprises; he was bound to marry Aceia Louise Christenson as per his father's order.

“You can’t love me. We can’t be together. It will ruin my career. It will ruin my life!” That’s what Kayla Danes told Corvin Marlowe when their relationship started becoming real. As one of the country’s most beloved actresses, Kayla was bound by a strict contract–one that required her to maintain the illusion of romance with her loveteam partner who used to be her real boyfriend, Derek Boyles.

Now, Kayla has to make a choice: Her career or the man she loves. But is she ready to let go of either one?
