One Hundred Years Of Solitude

À seulement 19 ans, Alayna vit un véritable cauchemar. Depuis la mort de son père, sa mère s’est remariée avec un homme violent, manipulateur et tyrannique. Leur maison est devenue une prison. Sa mère, aveuglée par l’argent de ce nouveau mari, ferme les yeux sur les abus, laissant sa fille se débrouiller seule dans l’enfer domestique. Un soir, après une nouvelle dispute, Alayna tombe par hasard sur un forum anonyme de luxure et de confidences. Elle y lit une histoire similaire à la sienne : une fille qui a vendu sa virginité à un inconnu pour s’enfuir. L’idée germe… et devient obsession. Prête à tout pour échapper à sa vie, Alayna poste un message : “Je vends ma virginité au plus offrant. Pas pour le plaisir, pas pour le vice. Juste pour m’acheter une nouvelle vie.” Contre toute attente, un seul message lui est envoyé. Court, direct : "Je paie le double de ce que tu attends. Mais je fixe les règles." Signé : W.W

Noong una, inakala nina Mj Krisela Maceda at Jarred Lloyd Villagracia na nagreincarnate sina Edcel Kate Del Amor at John Eric Ballesteros sa kanila, ang magkasintahang nasawi ang pagmamahalan dahil sa kagagawan ni Kenneth Whin Villagracia, ang kakambal ng ama mismo ni Jarred. Until complicated stories found them both and thier connections to the deaths of those two lovers twenty years ago. Ang kuwento ba ng pagmamahalan ng dalawa ay magiging kapalaran din ng pagmamahalan nina Mj at Jarred? Hindi kaya nagpapanaginip ang mga ito dahil may mensaheng nais iparating o dahil may gustong ipaalala sa kanilang dalawa?

Rolape suffers sleep paralysis and traumas. She blames her parents for her turmoils but as she strives to be a better person, she ironically discovers that her tribulations are pointing her silently to a purpose.

Love is an overrated word, and just like a spell that brainwashes our system, people are bound to search for their true love -- but not in Marion’s case. Her adoptive family, together with her biological father, wants her to have a child of her own. And when the dazzling one hundred billion pesos inheritance is on the line, she will trample her beliefs and desperately search for a man that will give her outstanding genes for her ‘one hundred billion pesos baby.’

The day I found out I wasn't really an Adelson, Sharon—their real daughter—stormed in and stabbed me—over and over. Just like that, my shot at being a mom? Gone. Chuck Benetton, my fiancé, lost it. My parents swore they'd disown her. To "comfort" me, Chuck proposed on the spot. My parents handed me the severance letter—Sharon officially disowned—and told me to just focus on healing. Later, they said Sharon had run off and gotten trafficked in Nyamara, some hotspot for scams and lost souls. They said it served her right. And yeah... I believed them. Six years into the lie, I saw her—very much alive, baby bump and all, curled up against my husband like she owned him. "If I hadn't snapped back then, Yasmine never would've married you, " she said. "Thank God you and Mom and Dad backed me. Otherwise, that imposter would've landed me in jail. "She probably never guessed I've been right here, carrying your baby. Once I give birth, just fake an adoption. She can nanny our kid forever. "Thanks for everything, Chuck." She smiled like he was her hero. And he blushed. "Don't thank me. Marrying her was the only way to protect you. I'd do it all again." So yeah. The guy I thought loved me? He was always lying. My "parents"? They only cared about Sharon. If that's love, I want nothing to do with it.

In the seventh year of dating Lorenzo Townsend, he still didn't want to marry me. One day, I said to him, "Lorenzo, I'm getting married." He frowned slightly, not even sure if he heard me right. "The company is going public, and we're swamped. This is not the time to discuss such an insignificant topic," he said. I smiled calmly. Maybe to him, it seemed like I was pushing him to marry me. But the truth was, I was getting married, but not to him.

Every time my husband cheated, he gave me a bracelet. I collected 99 bracelets in four years of marriage—I forgave him 99 times. He was away on a business trip for three days lately. When he came back, he brought home a rare bracelet worth Ten Million Dollars. That was when I knew it was time to ask for a divorce.

I tried to die a hundred times to make him notice me. For two years, I was Shawn Scott’s wife in name only—an unwanted bride bound by a scandal, left to live in the shadow of another woman. My parents only saw my faults. My husband only saw my mistakes. As for me? I saw no way out. Every time I tried to end it, I’d wake up again, bruised and humiliated. I was greeted not with concern, but accusations such as "Why are you so selfish, Zoe Jennings?" or "Why can’t you be more like your sister Yvonne?" It wasn’t until my hundredth suicide attempt that I finally understood: I was the only one fighting for a love that never existed. So, I stopped. I walked away. I disappeared. I gave them what they wanted—my absence. However, when I left, the man who never looked at me twice started chasing the ghost of the woman he thought he knew. By the time he realized what he truly lost, I was already learning how to live again.

After being in love with Dylan for seven years, I planned to propose to him at his birthday party. But then I overheard him speaking to his friend in Italian: "You like Lydia? I'll give her to you. I'm tired of her anyway. Sarah is better—she's a dancer, young and sexy." He thought I couldn’t understand, but he didn’t know that I had learned Italian for him. I threw away the ring I had designed for him, tore apart the wedding suit I had sewn and left. Our friends were all speculating how long it would take before I came back. Dylan sneered with disdain, "She’s just an orphan with no family. Where could she go without me? Three days at most." But to his surprise, I never returned and found a new home.
