My Utmost For His Highest Kindle

Nakakulong sa isang kasal na puno ng takot at kontrol, alam ni Calista "Cali" Montenegro na hindi siya basta-basta makakatakas kay Devin Vasquez—isang lalaking sabik sa kapangyarihan at hinding-hindi siya pakakawalan. Matagal na niyang tinitiis ang kalupitan nito, iniisip na wala na siyang ibang pagpipilian. Pero nang magdesisyon siyang maghain ng diborsyo, natuklasan niya ang isang masakit na katotohanan—hindi siya basta-basta palalayain ni Devin nang walang laban. Doon dumating si Lewis Alcaraz. Mapanlinlang, makapangyarihan, at ang taong pinaka-kinaiinisan ni Devin. Inalok niya si Cali ng proteksyong matagal na niyang hinahanap. Pero ang tulong na ito ay may kapalit—isang kasunduang magdudugtong sa kanilang dalawa sa paraang hindi niya inaasahan. Habang ang takot at galit ni Cali ay tuluyang nagtulak sa kanya na lumaban, natagpuan niya ang sarili sa mas kumplikadong sitwasyon kasama si Lewis. Ngunit sa kabila ng panganib, ang pag-aalaga at kapanatagang ibinibigay nito ang muling nagbigay sa kanya ng pag-asa sa pag-ibig. Sa laban ng kapangyarihan, pagnanasa, at pagtataksil—sino ang pipiliin ni Cali? Ang asawang gagawin ang lahat para maangkin siyang muli, o ang lalaking gumugulo sa kanyang isipan at puso?

To make up for past regrets with his first love, my husband, Pierce Ronan, lied that he could see everyone’s lifespan. He told me I had sixty years left, but his first love, Jessica Stone, had only seven days to live. So, for those seven days, he said he had to fulfill the promises of their youth. He brought her home, cared for her, and when they went back to their old college campus to relive their love, I didn’t protest. When he confessed his love to her and planned the wedding of the century, asking me to be the bridesmaid, I didn’t raise my voice. It wasn’t until he wanted to break the final taboo — in our marital bedroom — that he looked at me with guilt in his eyes and begged me to move out. The housemaids watched, snickering behind their hands, but I only smiled and nodded in agreement. I packed my bags, carried our child, and moved into the guest room next door. Seeing how obedient I remained, Pierce was touched. “I promise, this will be the last time I wrong you. Once Jessica passes, I’ll make it up to you.” What he didn’t know was that I had already seen through his lies. What he also didn’t know was that the one truly dying of cancer, the one with only seven days left to live, was me. Three days remained. Then, I would be gone.

"Have you ever loved me, even once?" I hummed when I herd that. Ridiculous. The tall man falling in a pool of blomanod. The scarlet stained his still perfectly delicate face.

My husband, once a powerful CEO, had become bankrupt and sank into depression. Overnight, I went from being the wife of a CEO to a lowly worker. To help him pay off his debts and cover the costs of his depression treatment, I took a job as a hostess at an auction house. However, I never expected to see my husband there, who should've been in the hospital undergoing therapy, sitting in the VIP section. Without any hesitation, he bid on an exorbitantly priced necklace and gave it to the woman beside him. That necklace—the one I had pawned to pay off his debts—was my grandmother's heirloom.

Adonis smirked, loosening his tie as he stepped closer. “Stop pretending, Zoe. Or should I say… Mrs. Walter?” His voice was low, teasing. “You’re drooling over me, admit it. I know exactly how happy you are to be married to Adonis Walter.” Zoe folded her arms, rolling her eyes. “Over my dead body.” “Oh, come on,” he said, shrugging off his tuxedo and letting it drop carelessly to the floor. “You get to have all this.” He unbuttoned his shirt and tossed it aside, leaving his toned chest on full display. Defined abs, sharp collarbones, muscles that flexed with every slight movement—he looked like he walked straight out of a magazine.
