"Palagi na lang kasi akong nari-reject kapag nagpapasa ako ng libro ko sa Good Nobela at hindi ako pwedeng ma-reject this year. Alam mo namang may usapan kami ng Daddy. Hindi na niya ako pipilitin na mag-masteral kapag may naipasa akong libro. Eh, lagi akong nari-reject dahil nga ang mga sinusulat ko raw ay walang kilig. Kailangan daw mag-focus ako sa nararamdaman ng bida kapag nandyan ang mahal niya." -- Jornaliza Smith Ang nais lang naman ni Jornaliza Smith ay maging sikat na manunulat kaya nagpaturo siya sa bestfriend niyang si Luigi Chances kung paanong maging ‘manyak’. Kahit kasi kahit 23 years old na siya hindi pa siya nakaranas ng first kiss. So, paano pa niya mailalarawan kung paanong umakyat sa ikapitong glorya? On going na ang 'erotic session' nila ni Luigi ng biglang bumukas ang pintuan ng kanyang kuwarto at nakita sila ng kanyang Daddy na saksakan ng konserbatibo. Kaya, wala sa oras na napamartsa si Jornaliza sa harap ng altar. Shucks, ang nais lang niya ay maging sikat na manunulat, paano niya gagampanan ang papel bilang asawa kung wala namang spark sa pagitan nila ni Luigi? Eh, bakit parang may dumadaloy na milyun-milyong boltahe ng kuryente sa kanyang katawan kapag hinahalikan siya ng bestfriend niya?

— Malu, eu te amarei para sempre! — Eduardo rugiu em desespero com a voz carregada de desejo. No instante em que estavam prestes a alcançar o clímax, o celular dele começou a vibrar insistentemente. Em um momento como aquele, é claro que ele não deu importância. Mas logo a tela se acendeu e, no momento, que ele reconheceu o nome escrito na notificação, seus movimentos pararam de repente. Maria Luíza ouviu-o atender: — Alô? — Edu, você sabia que a Jordana... — No silêncio da noite, a voz do outro lado soou nítida. — Fale mais baixo, o momento não é conveniente. — Eduardo interrompeu em árabe, num tom contido. — O resultado dos exames saiu. — Do outro lado, a pessoa também passou a falar árabe, mas a voz continuava alta. — Jordana está com câncer terminal, e só tem um mês de vida! Ela quer ser sua esposa. Você pode realizar o último desejo dela antes que ela morra? — O quê? — O rosto de Eduardo mudou drasticamente. — Espera por mim! — Malu, surgiu uma urgência. — Ele se voltou para Maria após desligar o telefone. — Eu preciso sair um instante. Fique em casa descansando, eu volto logo. Sem esperar pela resposta dela, Eduardo levantou-se, lavou-se rapidamente, trocou de roupa e saiu sem olhar para trás. Logo em seguida, o celular de Maria vibrou. A tela iluminada mostrava a mensagem de Jordana Torres: [Maria, você perdeu. Eu já te disse antes que o Eduardo é meu.] E logo acima, tinha uma mensagem enviada por ela três dias antes: [Se eu tivesse câncer, você acha que Eduardo te deixaria para vir atrás de mim? Eu aposto que sim.] O olhar de Maria ergueu-se lentamente desviando a tela do celular até a porta do quarto, ainda aberta. Eduardo não sabia, mas ela já dominava o idioma árabe há tempos, e tinha entendido cada palavra daquela conversa. Depois de muito tempo em silêncio, um sorriso amargo se desenhou em seu rosto. — É... eu perdi...

I hadn't seen my mafia husband, Luca Moretti, and our daughter Dora in three whole months. Why? Because his mother, Fiona, said Dora should stay with her "for a while." And Luca? He was "too busy with business," as always. So when Luca finally called and said he was going to pick me up for a family reunion at the villa, I was overjoyed. I thought maybe, just maybe, I'd finally get to hold my little girl again. I spent the whole damn day running around the city, buying her favorite dolls, snacks, a new pink dress, anything I thought would make her smile at me again. But when the car arrived, it wasn't what I imagined. Before I could even say Hi, Dora turned her head, took one look at me… and then wrapped her arms even tighter around Maria, the maid. She buried her face in Maria's neck like I wasn't even there. Like Maria was her mom. I tried to approach her, but Dora straight-up told me she didn't want to ride in the same car as me. And Maria, wearing that fake, polite smile, kept trying to gently talk me into giving Dora "a little more time." I looked over at Luca, hoping he'd step in. Instead, he just looked annoyed, like he couldn't be bothered to lift a finger to help fix things between me and our daughter. Clearly, they didn't want me there. So what was the point of trying to join the ride? I stepped back from the SUV. Then Luca just turned to me and said, "Just wait here. I won't be long." What he'll never understand is… I'm done waiting for him.

The level of betrayal I’ve experienced is unbelievable. Everything becomes complicated as the lies surface. Leaving and facing it alone are my only choices.

I need the ugly biological daughter, Maria Belgrave, who’s hiding. Things get confusing. Maria Belgrave sent two women to represent her. One is my Maria. My missing woman. The betrayal and conflict of interest still stand. I will say when our contract has ended. How can I work with her? I know nothing about her. She owes me answers and loyalty. Perhaps I’ll use this to my advantage. When David learns of Maria’s past life. Will he help her? Or use her and take over the business himself? It starts with an engagement and the death of a patriarch.

“Nova please, I beg of you. I will do anything to gain your forgiveness”. Zephyr begged as he used his hands to brush his hair desperately. “Forgiveness?” Nova asked with widened eyes and a surprised smirk. You said you didn't want anything to do with me. “I.. I didn't know what I was saying, baby. I need you in my life”. He replied. “No.. Nova interrupted before he could even speak further. You have no fucking right to come back into my life”. Her voice raised and her face turned red as she gritted her teeth. “Go back to your mistress”. She directed angrily, and just so you know, I am with eryx now. She said with a satisfied tone. “WHAT!!” zephyr exclaimed. “You belong to me Nova and I will chase you to the end of the earth till you are mine again”.
