Oliver's Substitute Bride

For her whole life, Lyra Suarez had been a good girl. That one girl who was too sweet, too nice, too helpful, too kind, too easy to manipulate, too easy to use, too easy to destroy. Being too pure and too caring sometimes has its bad side. And she knew that too well. At twenty-three, she was busy working her life away just to protect herself and keep her distance from her biological father, who never even claimed her.   With just one laced drink, her trust in her only aunt disappeared. Everybody seemed to see her as a beautiful ticket to a fortune. She was sold to a filthy old man.   While her poor soul cried for help, calling all the saints never seemed to work. And as her last prayer, in her most desperate state, she called for him... the Devil.   Because a deal with the Devil is always better than living in hell. And sometimes, the Devil is not the one to fear.

“Sa ‘kin ka na, Ava. Isang taon lang ‘to… pero pagkatapos noon, hindi ka na makakatakas sa akin kahit gusto mo pa.” Pakiramdam ni Ava Lim ay wala na siyang lusot sa mundo. Isang talented wedding gown designer na halos mawalan ng lahat—ang bahay, ang negosyo, at ang inang may malubhang sakit. Walang ama, walang kapatid, mag-isa na lamang siyang lumalaban. Hanggang isang araw, dumating si Sebastian Rivas—ang pinakamakapangyarihan at pinakakinatatakutang bilyonaryo sa bansa, ang tinaguriang “Demon of Real Estate.” Hindi siya nag-alok ng awa. Nag-alok siya ng kontrata: magpakasal sila sa papel at sa publiko, titira sa kanyang pribadong isla sa Palawan, at kapalit nito, babayaran niya ang lahat ng utang, gagamutin ang ina ni Ava, at bibigyan pa ito ng bagong simula. Pumayag si Ava—walang choice. Pero hindi alam ni Ava na may mas malalim na dahilan si Sebastian. Ginagamit niya ang kasal para makapasok sa lihim ng pamilya Lim—at mahanap ang katotohanan sa pagkamatay ng kapatid niya na hindi niya matanggap na aksidente lang. Sa bawat titig, bawat haplos, bawat gabing magkasama sa malaking kama, unti-unting nawawala ang lamig ni Sebastian. Nagiging obsessed siya—selos na selos sa kahit sinong lalaking lumalapit kay Ava, hinahawakan ito na parang pag-aari, at handang sirain ang mundo para mapanatili siyang malapit. Pero kapag natuklasan ni Ava na ang pamilya niya mismo ang maaaring may kinalaman sa trahedya ni Sebastian… magagawa pa kaya niyang manatili sa piling ng lalaking nagsimula sa kontrata pero nagtapos sa pag-ibig na parang tanikala? Makakalaya ba si Ava mula sa mala-presong kasal na ito… o siya mismo ang magiging dahilan para mas lalong lumalim ang dilim na hawak ni Sebastian?

My stepdaughter, Alana Greenwood, brought me some abortion medicine on her Coming-of-Age Ceremony. Everyone around knew of her little "prank", but none came to stop her. Even my husband just stood and watched. I smiled bitterly as I took the medicine and drank it in one go. I immediately felt the pain in my lower abdomen. My head began to spin, but I could still hear the harsh tone in Alana’s voice. "Well, did you think you could replace my mother after giving birth to your child? Let me tell you this, Dad agreed to marry you back then because I was young and was in need of a free nanny! If you dare think about replacing my mother, you will be kicked out of the Greenwood family!" I covered my stomach and took a deep breath. "There's no need for the trouble. You're an adult now and I've completed my task. I'll leave... tomorrow."

"Look, Kristine, there is no need to make a fuss about all of this," Jared finally said, his tone calm and dismissive. He met my eyes with a cold, indifferent gaze, not remorse in anyway. "We have guests downstairs. If you could just go and talk to them, Sophia and I will join you in a bit," he added, waving his hand as if to shoo me away. I scoffed, my hands shaking with anger. "Are you kidding me right now? Is that all you have to say? I just caught you in bed with my sister at our engagement party, and that's all you have to say? Have you lost your mind?" Tears welled up and spilled over, streaming down my cheeks as I clenched my fists in frustration. "You expect me to go downstairs and entertain our guests after catching you with my sister?
