Pragmatic Play 88

During Black Friday, the intelligent system I develop helps the company run highly targeted ads and brings in 30 million dollars in revenue. But when I apply for the project bonus, the director rejects it. "The system is just an auxiliary tool. The performance belongs to the sales department." I hold back my frustration and pull up the system logs. "88% of the orders come from the system's targeted pushes. According to company policy, I should receive a 0.5% commission." The director glances at me, twirling his pen. "If the sales commission doesn't go to the sales department, should it go to you? And your lousy system exceeds the API limit and racks up extra fees. You still owe us a hundred thousand dollars. We'll deduct that from your salary." Three days before Christmas sales are set to begin, the system completely shuts down because of API restrictions. Late at night, the director calls me. I stare at my computer screen. "Since the system is just an auxiliary tool, why don't you start with manual targeting?"

Après avoir annulé pour la 88 fois notre mariage, j'ai appelé mon associé pour lui annoncer ma décision : « Je me porte volontaire pour le développement du marché en Hériville. » Sa voix stupéfaite a résonné à l'autre bout du fil : « Tu es sûre ? Ce projet nécessite un engagement de dix ans sur place. Tu viens de te marier, ton mari est d'accord pour une séparation immédiate ? Et tes parents ? Ton plus grand rêve n'était-il pas de rester à leurs côtés ? » Fixant l'église vide, j'ai ri amèrement : « Le mariage a encore été annulé, de quel mari parles-tu ? Quant à mes parents, Claudine leur suffit. » Après un silence, l'homme a fini par acquiescer : « D'accord. Prépare-toi, tu pourras partir demain. » Raccrochant, j'ai laissé mes larmes couler sur ma robe de mariée. Oui, en ce jour qui aurait dû être le plus heureux de ma vie, Claudine Sadoul, ma sœur adoptive, avait encore tenté de se suicider à cause de sa dépression. Et une fois de plus, Gauthier Lortis, mon futur époux, avait annulé notre mariage. Je l'avais regardé, épuisée et désespérée : « C'est la 88 fois. » Rempli de remords, il avait baissé la tête pour me cajoler : « Accorde-moi encore un peu de temps, Léone. Tu sais bien que depuis cet accident, Claudine est si fragile… J'ai tellement peur qu'elle fasse une bêtise. Cette fois, je vais avoir une conversation claire avec elle. Ensuite, nous officialiserons notre union, immédiatement. » Mes parents, indifférents à mon chagrin, avaient insisté : « Léone, laisse Gauthier partir. Si Claudine n'avait pas été kidnappée à cause de toi, elle ne souffrirait pas de dépression. L'empêcher d'aller la sauver, c'est vouloir sa mort ? » « Comment peux-tu être aussi égoïste ? Ton mariage est-il plus important que sa vie ? » Ces reproches, je les avais entendus maintes fois. Auparavant, je m'étais défendue. Mais cette fois, j'étais restée silencieuse. Puisque mon fiancé et mes parents me rejetaient et ne me faisaient pas confiance, je disparaîtrais de leur monde !

She had spent most of her life crushing hard on him and was really elated that she finally married him in a pragmatic marriage. But she knew that he doesn't love her, not the way she wanted him to.

For seven years, I love Cody Rummish, clinging to his promise—once his sister-in-law, Luna Briche, conceives, our ordeal ends, and we finally begin our married life. But reality betrays me. Just months after moving into his home, Cody slips into Luna's bedroom 88 times—starting with once a month, now nearly one or two visits daily. Every night, I sit in the downstairs living room, counting the minutes, clutching a flicker of unrealistic hope. As the sole heir after his twin brother's fatal plane crash, Cody inherits not just power and wealth but also, seamlessly, his brother's widow, Luna. After the 88th visit, Luna announces her pregnancy. But instead of Cody honoring his promise, a public declaration shatters me—he will formally marry Luna. I unravel, demanding answers. Silent, Cody locks me in the bedroom's walk-in closet. "Luna was trapped in an elevator for 30 minutes! She nearly died because of you! Stay here for five days. Feel her fear!" Only on the sixth morning does Cody casually open the door with a chuckle. "Alright, lesson learned. Time to apologize, right?" He finds only the stench of blood and my cold, lifeless body. He's killed the fiancée who's loved him for seven years.

It was a deal, Joanne would play the part for one year…Nothing more and Alexander was untouchable but along the line something changed. She became his weakness. Now, with emotions running deep and a contract hanging by a thread… how will things play out.

Freya King, the CEO of a luxury jewelry brand, had it all: beauty, brains, and a commanding elegance that left powerful men captivated. But at thirty-one, she was still single, and her father had run out of patience. In a bold and borderline outrageous move, he made a game-changing business decision behind her back, one that involved a certain family friend and fellow empire heir… Kenneth Lee Wright. Kenneth, thirty-five, the handsome but stone-faced tech CEO known for being emotionally unreadable, had his own problem: a long-standing rumor that he didn’t “swing the right way”—a rumor he had never denied, simply because it kept overenthusiastic suitors at bay. When Freya flew across the globe to demand answers, Kenneth calmly offered a deal: “Let’s help each other. You get what you want. I find a wife. Problem solved.” Easier said than done. What began as a pragmatic search for their ideal match turned into a hilarious series of terrible dates, jealous moments, and awkward late-night heart-to-hearts. As sparks started to fly, Freya found herself wondering... What if the perfect person wasn’t on her list… but standing right in front of her? *** This is Book 3 of Love and Legacy in the House of Kings.
