Meet Up Artinya Apa

I've been married to my Mafia Boss husband for 15 years. When we first got married, he couldn't even afford a ring, but I didn't care; I loved him. I hid my identity. I secretly used my family's influence to help him build his empire from scratch, and I even bore him two children. His adopted sister always mocked me, calling me an old-fashioned housewife and saying I wasn't good enough for him. To avoid embarrassing him, I always endured it. Until our 15th anniversary, because both me and his adopted sister wore red dresses, he told me to stay in the kitchen: "Sofia's right. That red doesn't suit you. Don't come out until the banquet actually ends. Stay in the kitchen. I don't need the Dons from New York seeing you and getting the wrong impression." I was completely heartbroken and didn't argue anymore. I dialed a number I hadn't made in 15 years: "Principessa?" "It's me," I said, my voice steady. "Tell those old fossils on the Council... Isabella Corleone is coming home."

(Warning: 18+) He signed the marriage certificate… without ever seeing the bride. For Lucein Don Maginoo, it was nothing more than a transaction — until two years later, when fate throws the truth right at him. His wife has been working under his nose all this time — smart, passionate, and fiercely devoted to her job at the company he leads. Admired by colleagues, trusted by his grandmother. And when he finally meets her… she turns his world upside down. He’s falling—fast, deep, and harder than he ever thought possible. "Let’s make this marriage work. All the couple things to do, I’ll do them with you." But love doesn’t come without battles. When family expectations and deep responsibilities clash with their growing passion, will they fight for each other— or destroy each other in order to protect the ones they love?

On the eve of a surgery, I voluntarily resign from my position as lead surgeon. My colleagues sneer behind my back and mock me openly. "And this guy's supposed to have a PhD from abroad? Looks more like he bought a degree from some no-name university." "Can't even handle a challenge without running—what kind of doctor is that?" In my last life, I gave up competing in a general practitioner skills competition to take on this very surgery. But because the other lead surgeon violated protocol during the operation, it ended in a serious medical accident. My sister, the head of the department, pinned all the blame on me. Even my girlfriend stood firmly on their side, accusing me of incompetence. Overnight, I went from being a respected medical PhD to the disgrace of the hospital. I couldn't prove the mistake wasn't mine. I was fired and faced criminal charges. My parents, once so proud of me, pointed at me in rage. "We don't have a son who plays god with people's lives!" Crushed by shame and despair, I spiraled into deep depression and jumped from the hospital roof. But now, I open my eyes again. I'm back—back to the night before the surgery.

Hari itu adalah perayaan ulang tahun Ryan ke-70 tahun. Aku baru pulang dari stasiun kereta api di tengah hujan lebat. Sesampainya di depan pintu rumah, aku menemukan pintu rumah terkunci. Ketika mendengar suaraku, tetangga seberang rumah berkata dengan ekspresi bingung, "Tante Elita, kenapa Tante pulang? Om Ryan hari ini menikah, dia dan istrinya sekarang masih menginap di hotel!" Aku tertegun. 'Menikah?' Aku cerai dengan Ryan sebulan lalu. Namun, Ryan memberitahuku bahwa sahamnya rugi banyak dan memiliki utang. Agar tidak memengaruhiku, dia menceraikanku tanpa pisah rumah. Dengan dalih menghindari penagih utang, putraku mengantarku ke rumah lama dan memintaku tinggal di sana selama satu bulan. Ternyata sekarang Ryan sudah menikah lagi?

After I studied and lived in Descensio for five years, I finally graduated and was ready to return to my home country to take over my dad's company. When I arrived at the Sullivan Group building, I took a picture and posted it on my Instagram story with the caption. 'Since you're the man I love most, I'm here to see you immediately after graduation.' Yet, a woman appeared out of nowhere and slapped me as soon as I arrived at the company's lobby. "It's her! She's the hussy! She had seduced my husband back in high school. Now that my husband has become the director, she shamelessly showed up here to flirt with him. So, I want you girls to beat her up. I'll take the blame if anything happens." While the woman was cooking up a story about me seducing Marcus Lane, a director of Sullivan Group, others around simply looked on coldly and judged me. She slashed my limited-edition bag to pieces and smashed the expensive seal I wanted to give my dad. "You're just a gold digger wearing and buying fake luxury goods. It's just a few hundred dollars. I can still afford to pay you." However, little did she know that everything I had was real. Even if she and her director husband worked for the rest of their lives, they would never be able to afford to pay for the damages.
