After Being Fake-Married, I Became the Donna of the Underworld King

After Being Fake-Married, I Became the Donna of the Underworld King

Once I became pregnant, I was hailed as the most precious woman in the underworld. My husband, the new Don of the Jenkins family, shut down an entire private hospital wing for my check-ups, while my father, the Collins Don, summoned every Michelin-starred chef in New York to the estate, just so I could pick whatever I craved. The baby I carried was destined to be the sole heir of the two most powerful mafia families. But on the day we were to sign the papers securing my child's inheritance, they both vanished. "An urgent family matter came up," my husband, Vincent, said, kissing my forehead. "We can finalize the child's inheritance when we get back. There's no rush." Shortly after they left, I received a link to an anonymous live stream. My father's voice came from the video, colder than I had ever heard it. "You're saying your marriage contract with Evangeline was never valid. Doesn't that make the child a bastard?" Vincent, lounging in a club, blew a smoke ring. Cradled in his arms was my half sister, Sarah. "Evangeline has always had all the love and affection. Her child will want for nothing." "Sarah has been mocked for her status for years. I have to make things right for her, give our child a legitimate name." In that moment, my heart seized, and I could barely breathe. Then my phone vibrated again. It was a text message: "Welcome home to the Gallo family, my queen." "Just give the word, and the child you carry will bear the Gallo name and become the most powerful heir in the American underworld."

Di tahun ketiga pernikahanku dengan Jovan, tiba-tiba adik angkatnya, Jenny, mengirimkan sebuah video kepadaku. Aku membukanya dan melihat Jovan mengikat adik angkatnya di kepala ranjang menggunakan dasi yang baru saja kuberikan padanya. Sementara adik angkatnya terbaring telanjang di bawahnya, tanpa henti memanggilnya sebagai suami. Setelah itu mereka berpelukan erat. Jenny melingkarkan lengannya di leher Jovan dan merengek, “Kakak, aku nggak suka cincin yang kamu berikan padaku itu. Ambil saja dan berikan pada Kakak Ipar, anggap saja itu hadiah ulang tahun dariku.” Keesokan harinya, aku duduk di restoran mewah. Menatap kursi kosong di seberangku dengan pikiran melayang. Tiba-tiba, wakilnya mendorong kue besar ke arahku. “Pak Jovan ada urusan mendadak, jadi dia meminta saya mengantarkan hadiah ulang tahun ini untuk Nyonya.” Kotak itu berisi cincin, persis seperti cincin yang tidak diinginkan adik angkatnya.

Thanks for Making Me Hate You

Thanks for Making Me Hate You

My daughter, Annabelle Turner, was diagnosed with hereditary heart disease. I spent the past five years searching for a compatible heart donor for her. Now, I finally found one. Right before Annabelle is sent into the surgery room, my husband and renowned cardiologist, Gabriel Turner, tearfully makes me a promise. "Don't worry, sweetheart. I'll make sure Annabelle gets a shot at life again." Yet halfway through the surgery, Gabriel suddenly leaves in a hurry without giving any explanation. I stumble into the surgery room and see Annabelle lying on the operating table, covered in blood. Her chest is cut wide open, laid bare for all to see. Tyler Rotwell, Gabriel's assistant, stammers out, "Dr. Turner said… that Anna can still hold on a little longer, but Ms. Byron's son can't. "Dr. Turner took the heart that was meant for Anna and left…" I immediately break down and repeatedly call Gabriel's number, but Gabriel never answers a single call, not even when Anna's blood has completely dried… While settling my daughter's post-mortem affairs, I happen to see a newly posted update on Gabriel's childhood friend, Suzanne Byron's social media. "Turns out it was just a misdiagnosis," was what the caption read. "In that case, let's give this useless little thing to our good boy Oscar as a treat!" The video attached depicts Suzanne's dog Oscar tearing into the heart that was supposed to be donated to Annabelle. As I turn to look at Annabelle's cold body, the last shred of love I have for Gabriel starts crumbling apart. By the time Gabriel finally remembers Annabelle, whom he left on the operating table, only an empty bedroom and an urn containing her ashes would greet him…

Hadiah Ulang Tahun untuk Wanita Lain

Hadiah Ulang Tahun untuk Wanita Lain

Hari itu adalah hari ulang tahunku. Kupikir, Andre akan menemaniku ke pantai untuk menonton kembang api. Tapi, pacarku itu malah membawa wanita lain dan anak wanita itu. "Keisya repot bawa anak, tolong pengertian." "Dia nggak tahu jalan dan bawa barang banyak, jadi aku mau antar mereka ke hotel duluan." Dia mengatakannya dengan enteng, seolah sedang menjelaskan masalah sepele. Kelembutan itulah yang membuat kemarahanku tampak berlebihan dan tanpa alasan. Dia membantu mereka masuk ke dalam mobil dan memasangkan sabuk pengaman untuk anak itu. Lalu dia tersenyum dan berkata kepadaku, "Aku nggak lama pasti balik lagi, jangan mikir macam-macam." Aku berdiri di pinggir jalan, menyaksikan mereka pergi seakan-akan mereka satu keluarga sempurna. Malam tiba. Angin laut terasa sangat dingin hingga menusuk tulang. Aku masih menunggu, sampai aku melihat video di akun Keisya. Andre menggendong anak Keisya sambil menonton pertunjukan kembang api di pantai. Pertunjukan itu adalah kejutan yang aku rencanakan sendiri untuk ulang tahunku. Isi komentar di bawahnya senada. [Mereka pasangan yang serasi, keluarga kecil yang bahagia.] Seseorang bertanya padanya kenapa dia tidak menjemputku. Dia tersenyum dan berkata, "Viona pengertian. Dia nggak mungkin marah." Pada saat itu, kue ulang tahunku sudah meleleh seluruhnya. Ternyata, dia bukannya tidak punya hati. Dia hanya terlalu yakin bahwa aku akan terus menunggu selamanya. Tapi, hati yang terlalu lama diabaikan pasti akan menjadi dingin. Ombak menghantam pantai. Menghancurkan ilusi terakhirku. Kali ini, aku tidak akan menunggunya kembali.

Bullied at the Salon, I Snapped

Bullied at the Salon, I Snapped

My younger brother had opened a high-end beauty salon, so I took my mother there for a facial. We picked the most expensive package, but the moment the mask was applied, Mom's face began to burn. When we peeled it off, her entire face was covered in rashes. I called for the director, but she looked impatient. "Oh, that's just a normal detox reaction." I was stunned. "Her face is practically ruined! What products are you even using?" "Ruined?" She flared up like someone had stepped on her tail. "Your mom's skin is just too bad to handle premium nutrients! Once our products are opened, they're non-refundable—got it?" I pointed to the brochure. "It says right here—'gentle and non-irritating, full refund if any adverse reaction occurs.' Is this how Stellan Fallow taught you to run a business?" She crossed her arms and lifted her chin high. "I am the boss! You and your mother look broke as hell—clearly here to mooch a free treatment. Now that it didn't work, you're trying to scam us for money? "Let me tell you something—this set costs 38 thousand, and with my emotional damages and lost wages, that's a total of 100 thousand. If you don't pay up today, I'll have the police take you both in!" A hundred thousand for a product that ruined someone's face? It was no wonder Stellan suddenly wanted to open a salon—it turned out he and his girlfriend were running a scam together! I was about to call Stellan, but before I could, she hit the video dial first. "Bubby, get over here—two broke idiots tried to freeload a treatment and now they're trying to shake us down for money!"

The Scattering of Love

The Scattering of Love

After having a crush on someone for 10 years, out of love, my father drugged his friend and placed him on my bed. When he woke at dawn the next morning, his eyes were ice-cold. But he still accept our engagement. However, life after marriage wasn’t as good as I thought. Mike Ashton would frequently fly abroad and stay there for a long time. I gave birth to our daughter on my own as I waited for him to return home. After four years, when I heard that he was returning home, I postponed everything and went to the airport expectantly with our daughter in my arms. Our daughter reached out her little hand and was hoping for a hug from him. He just looked at me indifferently and said in a cold voice, “I’m sorry, but I’m a neat freak.” From then on, my daughter and I would wash our hands at least three times every day and the house would be spotless. However, he still rarely came home and never gave our daughter a warm hug. That was until when I accidentally saw a video with Mike in it. “Mike, what do you think is the happiest thing in the world?” He answered casually, “I think it’s when I tucked Oliver into bed and dragged Jennifer into the bathroom when I was abroad last week.” The people around him all laughed, but my heart felt ice-cold. Jennifer Bundred was Mike’s ex-girlfriend who he still had an entanglement with and Oliver was her son. It seemed that he had been living with them during the time that he was abroad for the past four years. This fact finally made me give up all illusions. I left a divorce agreement for him, gave up my and our daughter’s identities, and went abroad to start a new life.

DONATUR ASI JADI CINTA CEO

DONATUR ASI JADI CINTA CEO

Ulang tahun pertama Elio--putra mereka--seharusnya jadi perayaan cinta bagi Nadine dan Arvan. Namun yang datang justru duka, nisan, dan pengkhianatan. Nadine berdiri di pemakaman anaknya, menggenggam boneka beruang kecil, satu-satunya peninggalan yang masih mengandung aroma tubuh Elio. Anak itu bisa diselamatkan—kalau sang ayah, Arvan, bersedia mendonorkan sumsum. Namun yang Nadine dapatkan bukan pertolongan, melainkan penolakan dan penghinaan serta perselingkuhan dua orang terdekat. Seketika dunia Nadine runtuh, saat sebuah pesan video dari nomor tak dikenal mengungkap perselingkuhan antara Arvan dan sepupunya sendiri, Raline. Lalu, pesan lain menyusul: "Kau terlihat cantik dalam balutan duka. Lihatlah ke belakangmu." Dari situ, semuanya berubah menjadi lebih gelap. Didorong dari tangga pemakaman dan dituduh mencoba bunuh diri, Nadine terbangun di rumah sakit tanpa suara, tanpa anak, tanpa keluarga, tanpa apa-apa. Bahkan suaminya telah menceraikannya dalam keadaan koma. Dunia menghapusnya, satu demi satu. Namun ketika ia nyaris mengakhiri hidup dari rooftop rumah sakit, seorang pria asing menariknya kembali dari jurang kematian. Pria itu keras, dingin, dan penuh rahasia—tetapi juga satu-satunya orang yang tampaknya melihat Nadine … sebagai manusia, bukan sebagai tragedi berjalan. Siapa dia? Kenapa dia muncul di titik terendah hidup Nadine? Dan apa maksudnya dengan kalimat: "Kita belum selesai membicarakan tentang hidup"? Ketika luka lama terbuka dan rahasia demi rahasia terbongkar, Nadine menyadari: kematian Elio mungkin bukan akhir—melainkan awal dari sesuatu yang jauh lebih kelam.
