Lucy Jane Leighton Savant

On the eve of my wedding, I catch my boyfriend of seven years, Eddy Stark, and my best friend, Jane Holman, going at it in the company break room. All my coworkers crowd outside the glass door, watching the spectacle. "My gosh! That's your boyfriend, right? It turns out…" At the most humiliating moment in my life, Rylen Huff, the CEO who never got along with me, walks over and drapes his coat over my shoulders. Before everyone present, he makes an announcement. "She is my fiancée. Save your nonsense." From that day on, I go from being the company's joke to the CEO's wife who everyone envies. After we get married, Rylen treats me very well. He gives me everything from jewelry and mansion to power. But only one thing never goes as planned—we don't have a child. To give him an heir, I go through injections and egg retrieval again and again. After 99 IVF attempts, I finally get pregnant. But on the day of my prenatal checkup, I overhear his conversation with the doctor. "Mr. Huff, the IVF procedure has already severely damaged her health and body. If she finds out that this embryo is actually Jane's, I fear she may have a mental meltdown." Rylen falls silent for a moment. Then, he says evenly, "I've already given her a life most people could never have. She should feel contented. When she gives birth, I'll tell her that her body was too weak, and the baby didn't make it. "Jane cannot handle the pain and hardship of childbirth. We are childhood friends who grew up together, after all. Of course, I should handle a minor matter like this for her." So the timely rescue and unconditional favor from Rylen were nothing but lies. I immediately schedule an abortion, as I don't intend to give birth to a child that isn't mine. In addition, I won't stay with a man who has never loved me.

Nova Jane found love at a young age, but as those things sometimes go, they took different directions in life. Nova married Rob and has been living a life she can't seem to escape.

It was then that she was happy and carefree. It helps to daydream about it, but it also hurts that it's forever beyond her reach.

“You are worthless and no man would ever love you. You should be grateful I stopped to marry you.” Those words from her husband of 5 years clanged through Jane's head like a drumbeat. Maybe that was why when her husband's gorgeous billionaire boss, Thorn seduced her, she fell for it. She knew it was wrong but for one night she wanted to taste pleasure and if her husband's boss would give she would accept. That one night of reckless abandon became the beginning of something bigger than her.

—¿Por qué tienes un bulto ahí abajo? No se parece en nada a lo mío. Lucy, mi vecina de dieciocho años, me miraba con curiosidad esa parte del cuerpo. Había algo en su mirada que delataba un deseo, aunque ella no entendiera lo que estaba sintiendo. Yo fingí no entender. —¿Dices que no se parece? Enséñame cómo es el tuyo. No esperaba que lo hiciera sin dudarlo; de pronto, se bajó su minifalda blanca y me mostró su piel blanquísima. —Mira, aquí yo estoy plana, no tengo nada.
