Music Director

El día de la sentencia, mi prometido Diego González me tomó de la mano, sollozando, y me pidió que dejara de defender mi inocencia y firmara un acuerdo de culpabilidad. —Clara, sé que tú no hiciste nada… pero Isabella está esperando un hijo mío. No puedo permitir que ella vaya a la cárcel. Hazlo por tu bien, por favor —suplicó, con lágrimas que le empañaban la mirada. Sin dudarlo ni un instante, firmé el acuerdo. En mi vida anterior me negué a cargar con la culpa de Isabella García y, por eso, no solo terminé tras las rejas: la furia de Diego envió gente a torturarme hasta dejarme estéril. Esta vez me propuse complacerlo. A la mañana siguiente, los noticieros reventaron con la primicia de que yo había robado secretos comerciales de la Corporación López. Para colmo, Isabella se presentó como testigo. —Sí, fue ella; la vi con mis propios ojos infiltrarse en la compañía —declaró ante las cámaras. Pero aquella tarde, cuando inició la audiencia, el demandante Santiago López, director general de la corporación, retiró la acusación. Bajo la mirada atónita de la prensa, sacó un anillo, se arrodilló y me preguntó: —Clara, ¿en esta vida aceptarías casarte conmigo?

I was the hospital's top surgeon. After three successful surgeries, Medical Affairs decided to reprimand me in front of the whole hospital and canceled my bonus for the month. I argued with the head of Medical Affairs. "I've been working for this place for ten years, and I've always been the first to do everything! I went through five surgeries nonstop last year and had to go through one myself for exhaustion! What did I do to deserve this?" Yes, I was the top surgeon, but the bills were stressing me out, too. My husband had just lost his job, and I had to pay for the car, the mortgage, and our kid's extracurriculars. The burden I had to shoulder wasn't an easy one. So, I was counting on that bonus to get my kid into a basketball club, and now it had been taken away from me. This couldn't be happening! I couldn't believe that they were blaming me for a successful surgery! I was high up in the hierarchy here, so the department head didn't start a fallout right away. Instead, he tried to calm me down. "You drank two bags of IV during the late-night surgery and charged the patients for it. Their family's complaining about unfair fees, and it went viral. We had no choice!" That reminded me. That surgery was a complex one, and it wasn't even supposed to be assigned to me. After all, I'd been working around the operating table for 36 hours prior to that. However, it was the deputy director who came to me and insisted that I take over. I had no choice but to go ahead.

"Sakit, Gavin... lepaskan!" "Kau yang memancingku, Aruna. Jangan salahkan aku kalau malam ini aku tidak akan memberimu ampun." Hanya butuh satu kesalahan di hotel tiga minggu lalu untuk mengubah Aruna dari seorang Creative Director yang tangguh menjadi budak gairah pria yang paling ia benci. Gavin Dirgantara—calon suami adiknya sendiri—tidak hanya merenggut kesuciannya, tapi juga menanamkan benih yang kini mulai berdenyut di rahim Aruna. Di bawah intimidasi tubuh Gavin yang perkasa, Aruna kehilangan kuasa atas raga dan napasnya. Setiap sentuhan pria itu adalah racun yang membakar, menghapus jejak apa pun yang pernah ada di hidup Aruna sebelumnya. Gavin sangat dominan, sangat ahli memetakan setiap titik lemah di tubuh Aruna hingga wanita itu terpaksa mendesah di tengah kebencian yang mendalam. "Kenapa wajahmu pucat? Takut rahasia kecil kita di perutmu ini ketahuan?" bisik Gavin dengan seringai pemenang. Kini, dengan dua garis merah di tangan yang gemetar, Aruna sadar bahwa ia telah masuk ke dalam jebakan tanpa jalan keluar. Gavin tidak hanya menginginkan tubuhnya, tapi juga ingin mengikatnya selamanya melalui janin yang tak seharusnya ada. Saat hari pernikahan sang adik tinggal menghitung hari, sebuah pilihan maut menanti di depan mata. Haruskah Aruna menghancurkan kebahagiaan adiknya dengan sebuah kejujuran yang menjijikkan, atau membiarkan dirinya menjadi pemuas nafsu sang adik ipar selamanya demi menjaga nama baik keluarga?

My husband's parents were stung by an unidentified venomous queen hornet and rushed to the hospital. As soon as I heard the news, I hurried to the entomology research institute to seek help from my husband, who was the director, hoping he could assist the doctors with the diagnosis. Instead, he called for security to block me at the entrance. "I don't handle work matters after hours," he said coldly. "Penny's mother is sick, and I need to go take care of her." I tried to show him the critical condition notice from the hospital, but he tore it up in one swift motion. "People die every day. So what if your dad and mom died?" After my in-laws passed away, I filed a lawsuit against Penny Madison, who had deliberately disturbed the beehive that led to the attack. My husband, who had disappeared for several days, suddenly showed up as an expert witness in court. He fabricated a false professional opinion to exonerate Penny. When I decided to leave the country, he lost his temper. "What do your parents' short lives have to do with me? Is it so hard to understand that after a long day at work, I just want to rest? And now you want to drag Penny into this mess. Just because your own family is broken, you want to ruin someone else's? How can you be so vicious? You deserve to lose your parents!" Watching his brazen attempts to twist the truth, I suddenly realized something. He still didn't know that he had become an orphan.

On the day I'm supposed to get promoted as the deputy director, I pick up a 40-pound barbell before breaking my right arm with it. Because of the injury, I missed the only title-evaluating surgery available in five years. Everyone feels sorry for me, seeing as I've practically ruined my own future with my own hands. But I, on the other hand, am so excited about it that I've downed two bottles of vintage wine in one go. Because in my past life, I spent ten hours in surgery and pulled the patient back from the brink of death. But my wife, Megan Reese, immediately accused me of abusing my power as a doctor just to resolve a personal vendetta by killing her first love, Pierre Hopkins, on purpose. She bribed the nurses who were in the same surgery as me. They were adamant that I used the wrong medication purposefully, which led to the patient dying from a rupture. Not only was my career destroyed, but I also became a public enemy, hated by everyone. My mom tried to seek justice on my behalf, only to get cyberbullied by the Internet users, who knew nothing about the truth, to the point that she broke down. In the end, she accidentally fell into the river and drowned. When I received the tragic news, I chose to end my life by jumping off the hospital's rooftop. After I died, Megan spent my assets however she wanted. She also lived happily ever after with Pierre, who apparently "came back to life". When I open my eyes again, I've returned to the day I'm supposed to perform a surgery on Pierre.

"CODE BLUE!" shouts the nurse at the emergency room accompanied by a flat-line in the cardiac monitor. Clive Aster arrived in his matte black Audi in his all white coat. Upon hearing the wailing sound of the cardiac monitor, he immediately removed his coat and jumped to the patient's location. "I'll start CPR!" as he jumped to the patient's side and started pumping. "Administer Epinephrine now!" he shouted again. Then the cardiac monitor goes tooot-tooot-tooot. There's a heartbeat! The patient was saved. Clive Aster is a well-known doctor. He has mastered multiple specialties which includes Emergency Medicine, Neuro and Cardiac Surgery. Nobody in the City Hospital knows who he was. He just came in today and rushed to the patient immediately. When the commotion was over, the director of the City Hospital, Celeste Klatt, came in and welcomed him. "Welcome Dr. Aster! Welcome to your new home." Celeste shook Clive's hand and gave him a light kiss on the cheeks. "Parting ways seemed like yesterday, Celeste. It's nice seeing you again." "It's lovely seeing you again too, Clive. Come, follow me to my office." When they entered Celeste's office, Celeste ordered Clive to kiss her to which he abode. "Kiss me! I've missed you!" Clive started to kiss Celeste on her cheeks, then to her lips down to her neck and back to her lips again and he stopped! Slap! Celeste's hand landed on Clive's face. "Who told you to stop?!" Celeste angrily asked. "You never changed Celeste." Clive fixed his face and left Celeste's office.

“What are you going to do with him? Take him back???" Brion demanded, his gaze incredulous. "Take him back?" I scoffed, a smirk coming over my face as I stared at the picture in my hand.  "I have no plans to do that, BRION. I want him to fall for me, then push him down like he did to me. I want to make him feel the pain I passed through in his hands." I got to my feet and threw the picture on the floor. "It's time he dances to the tune of his music," I gritted out as I stomped hard on the picture. *** A loveless marriage wasn't part of Nova's plans for the future, but a one-night stand with a stranger changed her life forever.
