Her Regret: I Married the Lottery Bride

Her Regret: I Married the Lottery Bride

It was my twentieth birthday. My father presented me with the photos of many rich heiresses across the nation. He wanted me to pick the one to have a political marriage with. I told him I wanted to leave that in the hands of fate. Why? In my previous life, I picked Rachel Osborne, an heiress from Shampton. And I did that without hesitation. After we got married, I found out her true love, Zacharias Newman, had gotten himself drunk at a bar. The reason? He was heartbroken that we got married. And while he was drunk, a robber mugged him and cut off his hand's tendons. He tried to kill himself three times, and who did my wife blame? Me. She extracted my family's assets and gave them all to her beloved. My family was left as an empty husk. And she let him cut our brake lines. Thanks to him, my family and I died in a horrifying car crash. This was my second life. This time, I chose Seraphina Oliviera, an heiress from Fortunopolis. She was someone who couldn't care less about worldly matters and was a God-fearing woman. Eventually, I showed up at the engagement with Seraphina, but that apparently drove Rachel mad.

Forced into the Arena, I Made Her Join Me

Forced into the Arena, I Made Her Join Me

I'm a nationally certified animal trainer running the Lion King, Caesar's final assessment. I've barely stepped into the enclosure corridor when the steel guillotine door slams down behind me. My wife's laughter crackles over the loudspeaker. "Everyone, we're doing the ultimate challenge today! We're locking the so-called number-one animal trainer in the Lion King's enclosure and taking bets on whether he wets himself in ten minutes!" Caesar crouches low and rumbles a warning. I reach for my tranquilizer gun but stop cold. The liquid isn't the right color. In a phony sing-song voice, the veterinarian, Hugh Archer, says, "Lucian, I forgot to mention, I swapped your tranquilizer darts for pepper spray so you won't hurt Caesar by mistake. "You two are so close. Just win him over with love!" I look at Caesar, his eyes bloodshot from the stimulant, and it clicks. Hugh still resents that I stopped him from touching a tiger with his bare hands a few days ago. I tune out the trash blaring over the loudspeaker, pull a remote from my pocket, and hit the button. It's the master switch for the electric fence gates around every predator enclosure in the zoo. If I don't make it out, no one does.

No Love for the Unworthy

I run into a group of rogues on my way home for my daughter's birthday. I call my wife for help, but she blocks my number. I'm dragged out of the car, stabbed a dozen times, and thrown into the bushes to die. My neck is broken, and my organs are spilling out of my body. The rogues think I'm going to die—they even mention each other's names before me. Then, they drive off in my car while whistling happily. I hold onto my head and organs as I crawl to the roadside, hoping against hope that someone will save me. Before I'm taken to the hospital, I see my wife's social media update—she and her secretary have taken a sweet photo together while celebrating our daughter's birthday. The first thing I do after being discharged is demand a divorce.

Paid in Blood for a Lie

Paid in Blood for a Lie

My mother and I pushed ourselves, slaving away to pay for my girlfriend’s debt. The work was too hard on her, and she was soon diagnosed with lung cancer. By the time I arrived at the hospital with money for her treatment, my mother had taken her own life and left behind a note. “I can’t go on, Gab. The money is best put toward settling the debts. Noelle is a good kid. She loves you. She’s just lost her way. That’s all. You two should settle down once the debts are cleared.” I held my mother’s ashes and gave Noelle the thirty thousand dollars she had left behind. Back in the office, I overheard Noelle talking to several creditors. “Ms. Strom, Mr. Lamb has passed your test. What’s next on the agenda for him?” Noelle’s childhood friend, Charles, jumped into the conversation. “Gabriel has proven that he’s willing to be there for you through thick and thin, but will he stick around in wealth? Noelle pursed her lips. “I need to know if he genuinely loves me. If he isn’t blinded by greed when learning about who I am, I’ll marry him.” I stared at my mother’s ashes, tears rolling down my face. “Noelle, my mother was wrong about you, and so was I. I don’t want to marry you anymore.” I thought to myself.

Aku Hampir Mati di Pesta

Aku Hampir Mati di Pesta

Setelah kekasih masa kecil tunanganku tahu aku memiliki penyakit jantung bawaan, dia dengan sengaja mencampurkan minuman energi konsentrasi tinggi ke dalam sampanyeku. Setelah aku meminumnya, detak jantungku tiba-tiba meningkat, rasa sakit di jantung menerpaku. Aku dengan panik merobek satu-satunya obat darurat yang aku bawa, namun air untuk aku minum obat telah diganti dengan air lemon berkonsentrasi tinggi. Setelah aku meminumnya, seketika wajahku menjadi pucat pasi, akhirnya tidak tahan dan terjatuh ke lantai. “Air lemon mengandung Vitamin C, lebih membantu mengatasi mabuk dan menjaga kesehatan.” Charlotte tertawa terbahak-bahak, dia menyilangkan tangannya sambil menatap ke arah tunanganku, bos Geng Rock Roller. “Ethan, akting tunanganmu yang seorang aktris ini benar-benar hebat.” “Selama bertahun-tahun aku menjadi dokter, tidak pernah lihat orang yang minum sedikit sampanye dan air lemon, malah bisa merasa tidak enak badan seperti ini.” Aku menggigit bibirku hingga hampir berdarah, menahan air mata yang muncul di mataku karena kesakitan dan menggenggam celana Ethan yang ada di depanku. “Sayang, cepat panggil ambulans, aku sudah tidak tahan!” Sedikit keraguan terlihat di mata Ethan, namun dengan cepat terhentikan oleh para tamu di sekitar. “Sudahlah, jangan akting lagi, mana ada orang yang mati karena minum sedikit sampanye dan air lemon.” “Ya benar, kamu hanya iri dengan Charlotte yang naik jabatan, tidak ingin bersulang untuknya, kan?” Seketika Ethan kembali ke ekspresi dinginnya, dia melangkah maju, langsung melepaskan tanganku yang menggenggam celananya. “Charlotte itu dokter, ada dia di sini, kamu tidak akan kenapa-napa di pesta.” Aku pun tidak memohon padanya lagi, langsung mengirim pesan darurat kepada ayahku.

Ten Years His Cover—Now I'm Free

In my tenth year of marriage, my old childhood friend, Joshua Sears, posts a photo on social media. Both Joshua and my wife, Sabrina Lawson, are hugging his son, Andy Sears, and my daughter, Tiana Jenkins, in it. The four of them look very close to each other. The caption accompanying the post says, "Blessed to have the perfect son and daughter." I leave a comment below the post, saying, "Looking good together." A few seconds later, the post is deleted. The next morning, Sabrina rushes home and yells at me. "Ashton Jenkins! Joshua was finally feeling better for once. Why did you have to trigger him again?" Tiana shoves me hard and snaps in an accusatory tone, "It's all your fault that Andy's crying now!" I take out a copy of the divorce agreement and slam it down before them. "Yes, it's all my fault. That's why I'm stepping out of the picture now. Then, the four of you can form the wholesome family you've always wanted."

When I Devoted Myself to Science

When I Devoted Myself to Science

Our place was hit by an earthquake. I was crushed by a slab of stone, but my wife, leader of the rescue squad, abandoned me in favor of her true love. She said, "You're a soldier. You can live with a little injury. Felix can't. He's always been weak, and he needs me." I was saved, eventually, and I wanted to leave my wife. I agreed to the chip research that would station me in one of the National Science Foundation's bases deep in the mountains. My leader was elated about my agreeing to this research. He grasped my hand tightly. "Marvelous. With you in our team, Jonathan, this research won't fail! But… you'll be gone for six whole years. Are you sure your partner's fine with it?" I nodded. "She will be. I'm serving the nation here. She'll understand." The leader patted my shoulder. "Good to know. The clock is ticking, so you'll only have one month to say your goodbyes. That enough for you?" I smiled. "More than enough."
