L'Épouse du Roi des Enfers

L'Épouse du Roi des Enfers

Le jour de mon mariage, mon fiancé de la mafia, Ryder Conti, a fait poster ses hommes devant l'église pour m'en interdire l'entrée. À la place, c'est lui qui a remonté l'allée, une autre femme accrochée à son bras. Il m'a adressé un haussement d'épaules à travers les lourdes grilles de fer. « Emilia, les Conti ont besoin d'un héritier, et Carmela Rossi porte un enfant. » « Une fois que j'aurai utilisé l'influence des Rossi pour consolider ma position au sein de la famille, je divorcerai. Tu resteras ma femme. » Tout le monde pensait que j'allais hocher la tête docilement et attendre son retour. Pendant dix ans, je l'avais aimé plus que ma propre vie, au point de couper les ponts avec ma famille pour lui. Cette même nuit, j'ai embarqué à bord d'un jet privé à destination de la Sicile, afin d'accepter un mariage arrangé avec le Parrain de la famille Vettori. À partir de ce moment-là, j'ai disparu sans laisser la moindre trace du monde de Ryder Conti. Trois ans plus tard, je suis revenue à Paris avec mon mari et mon enfant pour régler le compte d'un traître au sein de la Famille. Zayn avait une affaire de dernière minute à régler, alors il a envoyé ses hommes pour me récupérer. Je ne m'attendais absolument pas à revoir un visage de mon passé. Ryder m'a dévisagée avec un rictus moqueur. « Tu t'es bien amusée là-bas ? Puisque tu es revenue en rampant, c'est parfait. Le fils de Carmela a besoin d'une cuisinière. Tu feras l'affaire. » Attendez… Il venait vraiment de m'appeler, moi, la Donna la plus respectée des Enfers, une simple cuisinière ?

She Got His Love, I Got His Chores

She Got His Love, I Got His Chores

On the week before Valentine's Day, I want to buy my husband, Grayson Strickland, who works as a university professor, an electronic toothbrush as a gift. That's when I see a review with over ten thousand likes on a particular online store. "I recommend buying from this store! This store's electronic toothbrush is super durable! I've never had to charge this toothbrush for half a year!" Three days later, an additional response is made to that comment. "I'm sorry for misleading everyone. It turns out that my husband has been charging this toothbrush this whole time. It's my fault for being such a doofus! I even pestered him for a long time before I finally found out that he has done a lot for me! "I never have to add toilet rolls to the bathroom. All I thought is that the same toilet roll is extremely thick. The membership that I have on the TV app is often paid for and extended, and yet I thought there was a bug in the app software somehow. Some time ago, the peeling dry skin on my lips miraculously healed. It turns out he was the one who kept applying lip balm onto my lip at night. "He's a university professor, you see. In the past, I often blamed him for not knowing what being romantic was like. But now, I finally realize that those who love you will have a way of showing you how it's done." The rest of the comment section is filled with wailing complaints. They all complain that Valentine's Day isn't even here, and yet they are already sick of the lovey-dovey atmosphere. Amid the Internet users' constant requests, the poster finally uploads the handsome side profile of her husband. Feeling rather envious, I tap on the photo, only for my smile to freeze on my face. That photo actually features Grayson! As I stare at my mother-in-law, who has been paralyzed in bed for the past six years, I recall the fact that Grayson lives on the university campus all around the year. That's when uneasiness begins plaguing me. As expected, when I bring my marriage certificate to the County Clerk’s office and ask about it, the clerk points at the stamp and says, "Your marriage certificate is fake. Mr. Grayson Strickland's spouse is another woman named Callista Whitman." My fingers go slack subconsciously, causing the fake marriage certificate to fall to the floor. A chuckle of despair escapes my lips. Everyone knows that Callista is Grayson's student. She's his most prized student as well as the person who knows him the best. As for me… I'm just a free caretaker whom he has "hired".

Bullied at School? My Grandfathers From Hell Showed Up

Bullied at School? My Grandfathers From Hell Showed Up

When I was five years old, I was kidnapped by the human traffickers. Later on, I was abandoned at Dreadvault Isle's prison meant for serious offenders located in the infamous no-man's land of Cloudguard Continent. In order to avoid dying from starvation, I clung to Edgar Blythe, who was a serial killer with the highest bounty known on the Internet, and called him "Grandpa Eddie". Then, I moved to grip Franklin Graves, a former boxing champion, by his diamond-crusted belt just to beg for scraps. Finally, I entangled myself around a top-tier assassin's leg while yelling at the top of my lungs, "As long as you don't let me starve to death, I'll make sure to take care of you once you grow old!" All the international mercenaries, arms dealers, and professional assassins were stunned by my declaration. In the end, they gave me some leftovers from their own plates. That was how I was raised in prison. Since my grandpas have enemies all over the globe, the first thing I do after returning to the country is act like a cowardly impoverished student. When I'm a college sophomore, Leonard Hargrove, a rich scion from a conglomerate, has accused me of stealing his laptop. He even beats me up relentlessly on the campus field and breaks three of my ribs by stomping on my chest. To make things worse, he forces me to swallow blood-drenched soil. I'm in so much pain that I've practically gone nuts and bitten off half of Leonard's ear as a result. Jordan Chappel, the dean of the college, kicks me to the floor when I meet him later on in his office. "Do you really think you're in the right for stealing from someone else, you broke bastard? All he did was hit you a few times! It's not like you'll die from those attacks! "You'd better tell your guardians to come here as soon as possible! I want to see them groveling to me and apologize on your behalf!" After spitting out a mixture of blood and saliva, I turn to stare Jordan dead in the eye. "Are you sure you really want my guardians to show up?"
