Never Split The Difference

My grandmother only knows how to draw one thing—infants. They're ugly, but people line up to buy the paintings. I watch as she takes those women into unlit rooms. Then, their bloodcurdling screams will ring out. Oddly enough, they always thank my grandmother when they're leaving. One day, I finally find out what exactly my grandmother paints. I discover the truth when I see an infant crawl out of one of the women's bellies—it looks just like the one my grandmother has painted.

Mavis witnessed the downfall of her clan. Nasaksihan niya ang pagkawala ng lahat sa kanya. Ang pagkamatay ng mga magulang niya, ang pag-agaw sa kompanya nila at ang unti-unting pagkawala ng pagkatao niya bilang nag-iisang tagapagmana ng Servillon. Lahat ng iyon ay nagsiga sa galit at poot niya at naging ugat ng kagustuhan niyang mapaghiganti at mabawi lahat ng kinuha sa kanya. In the middle of her vengeance she entangled herself with the other inheritors, including Cyrus Dashiel Resalde, the gorgeous man that she first met in the middle of the night under the bright full moon. The man that holds a lot of secret na may kinalaman sa pagkatao niya. Magtatagumpay kaya siya sa kanyang paghihiganti kung sa kalagitnaan ng pagpapaplano niya ay nahulog siya sa bangin ng pag-ibig na sa una pa lang ay dapat na niyang iniwasan.

After being reborn, I'm taken back to the day I confessed my love for my childhood friend. In my past life, I had to plead and beg before he begrudgingly agreed to marry me. "You look pathetic when you beg me for anything, Annabelle." That was what Hayden Gulman always said to me. He was so cold to me that he even canceled the part where we read our vows to each other during the wedding. When I was eight months pregnant, he took a photo of my belly covered in stretch marks. Then, he complained to his true love about the unhappiness he faced after marrying me. When I went into a difficult labor due to my agitation, he and his true love were on vacation. At that moment, my heart finally died. It turned out my one-woman show couldn't be considered love at all. Now that I've been reborn, I smile when I see the disdainful look in his eyes. I say, "We have nothing to do with each other from this moment on. I only wish to be happy."
