“I should have refused.” I shook my head, my eyes sweeping towards the silver eyed devil standing before me, with no ounce of guilt or remorse in his eyes. “I should have never married you.” “That hurts my feeling.” That was a cruel joke, because we both know that he doesn’t even have feelings to begin with. “But there isn’t any man who could love you like I do; not even Thorne.” I paused when his long, cold index finger trailed my face stopping at my lips, and his eyes met mine again. They were dark… with lust. “Fuck you.” I muttered with hate and anger dripping in my voice. “I believe even right now, all you want is me.” He mused and he wasn’t wrong, because he never said I couldn’t leave. Yet, I found myself staying, and hoping he would change. “And all that completes me is you.” His lips cam crashing on mine. *** Eden Montclair is your everyday surgeon who tries to get by every surgery without complications, she has created high hopes for herself that she would inherit her grandmother’s hospital.

"What would you do if you were given a second chance—not just at life, but at revenge?" When Paula Whitney watched her husband, Orlando Gilbert, introduce another woman as his lover in front of their entire family, her world crumbled. To make matters worse, Jeany Rosalia—the other woman—not only flaunted their affair but also brought along a child she claimed was Orlando’s. Humiliated and crushed under the weight of her family’s scorn, Paula did the only thing she could think of: she ran. But fate wasn’t kind. A tragic accident robbed her of everything—including her own body. Yet destiny had other plans. Paula awoke to find herself in the body of Vanessa Khiel, an up-and-coming singer on the brink of fame. Disoriented and reeling from the shock, she heard one final plea from the dying soul within—Vanessa's voice whispered through her fading strength: "Protect my little brother. And in return, I’ll help you get the revenge you deserve." Now, Paula lives as Vanessa. With Vanessa’s beauty, charisma, and growing influence in the entertainment world, Paula begins to orchestrate her revenge—determined to destroy Jeany and Orlando for the pain they caused. But just as her plan takes shape, Paula uncovers a secret behind Orlando’s betrayal… a truth that shakes the foundation of her hatred. And she begins to wonder: Is revenge ever enough… or does an old love still deserve a second chance? “You remind me of someone,” Orlando murmured, his eyes lingering on Vanessa with a longing that felt almost too familiar. “Who?” Vanessa replied with a faint smile, carefully hiding the irony behind her words. “Paula,” he whispered. “She was my wife.” Or will she drag Orlando down with her… into the depths of ruin?

When you truly love someone, mistakes will never change your feelings because the mind only gets angry but your heart still cares and that's all that matters. Veronica Chrystelle Valderama is your typical ideal woman. Maganda, matalino yun nga lang brat sa paningin ng ibang tao. She has everything a woman could have but she's not the type who keep everything for herself. She is helping a foundation for orphans and less fortunate children but she's kept it a secret. She's an heiress, an international model and she had anything every woman wished to have pero sa kabila ng tinatamasang karangyaan nananatiling mababa ang kalooban nya. She maybe bratty and spoiled but she's also sweet and generous at all times. Hanggang sa nakilala niya ang isang gwapong negosyanteng matalik na kaibigan ng Kuya niya. Masungit, suplado at lahat na lang ata ng katangian nito ay kinaiinisan niya. He is... Ret. Major, Nathaniel Devon Castillo, an ex-military, a businessman with oozing with sex appeal. But their first encounter didn't leave her a good impression. One day the guy showed up in their mansion, not to visit her brothers but to be her...personal body guard. She's irritated, irked and dismayed but she can't do anything because her father decided. She promised to herself that she'll do anything to annoy the guy but little did she know she's falling for him...so hard to the point that she doesn't know how to recover. Their relationship started and ended too fast, yong tipong kakasimula palang, natapos din agad sa di malamang dahilan. Malalampasan kaya niya ang sakit ng katotohanan kapag natuklasan nya na ang sekretong matagal na nitong inililihim sa kanya? Will her love enough to forgive and give chance to a broken billionaire?
