Quotes Stress

Celeste knew both happiness and sadness, but she had never lost hope, until the time when she lost her dad and her world came crashing down. What was the point of hoping and wishing, when everything she wished for would slip away right from her hands, like water running down her fingers? Pain and depression in itself are unbearable, but what would happen to a person if they have to deal with financial stress too? Celeste had to juggle not only schoolwork but also juggle three different jobs. With great difficulty, she was able to finish her bachelor's, and now she was finally able to get into her dream university for her master's. All this while she thought being far away from home would somehow take her troubles away too, but that wasn't the case. She had a looming 1-year student loan and was barely getting by with a full-time degree. And that's when she was forced to do something that she didn't really think she would have to do. She found herself browsing through what it would take to be a sugar baby and was mortified that it required the sugar baby to have consensual sex and her graysexual ass could never. She was saved from the nightmare when she met a mysterious rich boy/man who was willing to act as her sugar daddy, well not really. Gabrielle a boy of just 23, and an owner of a multi-millionaire company. He had money and everything nice right at his feet. But just like Celeste, he was a broken boy too, craving for a family that was already 6 feet under the ground. And who knew that both of them would find each other and maybe just maybe they would find what they lost all hope for.

At their engagement party, Aleli created a scene, accusing Aliyah in front of their parents of trying to seduce Benedict. Heartbroken and humiliated she ran out of the party.

Despite that, Aliyah and Conner grew even closer. They discovered each other’s strengths and weaknesses, which only strengthened their bond.

As I laid there waiting for sleep to take me. I was startled as my eyes drifted they landed on a human shaped shadow again by the bathroom door. I tried to roll. Nothing happened. Scared now, I tried to reach my phone. My arms wouldn’t move. My breathing was getting rapid. The only thing that would move is my eyes. Why can’t I move? From the corner of my eye, I saw it. The shadow moved from the doorframe towards me. It was an ambiguous huge male human shape with a hat on its head. Once it reached the bed, it stopped. Less than a foot from me and I couldn’t make out any details. My heart was racing, and my breathing was ragged. Male knuckles traced my jaw from my ear to my chin. The touch was gentle. Intimate even. A husky, seductive chuckle filled the air that still smelt of the candle. “I know what you need little gazelle.” The shadow shimmered. Now I could see the details. He was at least six foot two. Dark skin, bald head, and wearing jeans that clung to his muscled legs. An unbuttoned dark purple shirt displayed his taunt chest. The moonlight showed his beautiful smile as he leaned towards me. I tried to speak, but nothing came out. “Shhh. I’m going to make it all better.” ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation.

Women. Booze. Casual Sex and repeat. Yan ang nakasanayang buhay ng isang Saint Paris De Luca - isang casanovang bilyonaryo. Pangalang sinisigaw ng mga kababaihan at kinaiinggitan naman ng mga kalalakihan. Ipinangako niya sa sarili na walang babaeng makakapagpaluhod sa kanya sa kahit anong kagustuhan nito. No stress - no love , just sex. Hanggang dumating ang isang araw na aksidente niyang narinig na ipapakasal siya ng mga magulang sa isang babaeng nagngangalang Lois Andromeda Verlice. Isang babaeng ang prioridad ang pamilya at pangarap, malayong malayo sa iniisip niyang katulad ito ng ibang babaeng humahabol sa kanya. Ang babaeng ayaw din sa lalaking babaero tulad niya. At hindi siya pwede matali ng basta basta man lang, hindi niya kayang i-give up ang kalayaang meron siya ngayon bilang binata. Sanay siyang siya ang hinahabol at sinasamba ng mga babae. Kaya naman hinikayat niyang umayon ito sa plano niyang magpapangap silang magkasintahan kalaunan para na rin sa ikakabuti ng kondisyon ng ama niya. He love his life more than ever. Pero paano nalang niya gagawin yon kung araw-araw nito ipinaparamdam sa kanya kung ano ang kulang sa buhay niya. The love he never believe it existed. Mananatili pa ba silang magpapanggap para lang lokohin ang mga sarili nila, na alam nilang sa una palang talo na o mag take ng risk para sa pagmamahal na inaasam nila para sa isa't isa?

My husband's ex-girlfriend left behind a cat that could nurse my daughter like a woman. I turned on my camera and livestreamed this horrifying scene. The stream instantly went viral, and people approached me offering high prices for the cat. When I agreed to sell it, my husband went crazy, clutching the cat and screaming that it could not be sold. Even my sister-in-law, who had always doted on me, furiously yelled at me for being brainless. In my previous life, I accidentally discovered the cat in our house nursing my daughter. I was terrified when I saw my daughter's satisfied expression! What made me feel even more horrified was that the cat's chest area had no fur at all. It was smooth and delicate, like a nursing woman's. Moreover, this cat usually either bared its teeth at me or scratched me with its claws. Every night, it slept in my husband's arms. Thinking of all this made my skin crawl, and I immediately decided to throw the cat out. Unexpectedly, my usually gentle and refined husband became incredibly frenzied. "I raised this cat with my own hands. It's no different from my child! If you dare throw away my cat, then we're getting divorced!" My sister-in-law also urged me to keep the cat. She even gave me sleeping pills, claiming I had been under too much stress lately. That night, my daughter died in my arms, and I also died in bed from excessive grief. Only after my death did I learn that the cat was my husband's ex, and my daughter was the medium for her life exchange. Their true purpose was to steal my body. When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day I was just discharged from the hospital.

Raquel Aguas is the definition of spoiled. Wala siyang inatupag kundi party, shopping, gala, at pagwaldas ng pera ng magulang niya. Wala siyang pakialam sa negosyo, sa future, o kahit sa expectations ng pamilya niya—basta't masaya siya. Pero nang mapuno na ang magulang niya sa kawalang-direksyon niya, tinakot siyang hindi niya makukuha ang mana niya kung hindi siya matutong magpakatao. Dahil sa takot na mawala ang marangyang buhay na nakalaan sa kanya, wala siyang nagawa kundi tanggapin ang kondisyon—ang pumasok sa House of Aguas at tumulong sa kuya niya sa pamamalakad ng kompanya. Sa kasamaang palad, dala lang ni Raquel ang kalat at stress sa opisina. Hindi siya seryoso, laging palpak, at tila ba wala talagang pake. Kaya nagdesisyon ang kuya niyang bigyan siya ng isang project—isang mission na kapag matagumpay niyang nagawa, malaya na siyang bumalik sa dating buhay niya. Kailangan niyang papirmahin ang mayor ng Santa Monica para sa isang malaking proyekto ng House of Aguas Corporation. Sa una'y inakala niyang madali lang iyon. Pero nang makilala niya si Mayor Caelum Argente ay doon siya nagkamali. Guwapo man ito, ngunit masyadong matigas ang prinsipyo. Paulit-ulit siyang binigo at tinanggihan, tila ba sinasadya siyang pahirapan. Habang lumilipas ang mga araw, lalong nawawala ang pasensya niya. Pero dahil desperada siyang matapos ang trabaho at makuha ang kalayaang gusto niya, pilit siyang naghahanap ng paraan para mapasunod ang mayor. Ang hindi niya inaasahan ay ang kondisyong kapalit ng pirma nito—isang kondisyon na hindi pera o pabor ang hinihingi, kundi ang maging sex slave siya nito!

When the factory director’s son dragged my drunk fiancee into the supply warehouse, I pretended as if I did not see them. I just turned around and walked away. In the past, I had ruined my own future by rushing in and beating the factory director’s son up. I was even framed for stealing the supplies from the warehouse. When the warehouse keeper came over with the police officers, my fiancee deliberately ripped her own clothes. She cried and said that she came with the director to stop me from committing the crime, but I beat her up and even defiled her. Everyone despised me, and I became a criminal. My fiancee’s parents could not bear the rumors, and they forced me to marry her. But that marriage was only the start of a hellish life. She lived like a queen at home, yet she told everyone I was starving her. When she got pregnant, she deliberately pushed her belly against the corner of the table. Then, she stood in the courtyard and cried. She claimed I had abused her, and I wanted to kill my own baby. My parents felt bad for me, so they borrowed money from everyone they knew to get her a job. But when she landed on the job, she framed my father for stealing the steel from the factory. Half a year after my father was imprisoned, he passed away in jail due to an illness. My mother could not bear the stress and fell severely ill. She also passed away soon after. When I was pinned under the collapsed brick wall at the construction site, she did not call for help. Instead, she picked up a brick and smashed it into my head. “If you were not so nosy, Jeremy and I’d have been together already. We wouldn’t have wasted so much time!” My head bled, and I was buried beneath a pile of rubble. When I opened my eyes again, I was at the entrance of the supply warehouse. From inside, I heard my fiancee’s soft, teasing murmurs.

"You need financial freedom. I need a bride. One signature—and your debt’s gone." *** Kira Navarro thought she had everything under control. Maayos ang trabaho, may konting ipon, at kahit papaano'y nakakaraos sa buhay. Dahil sa sobrang pagod at stress, napa-oo siya sa mga kaibigan na mag-unwind sa bar. Hindi niya inakalang ang simpleng gabing ‘yon ay mauuwi sa isang mainit na encounter kasama ang isang estranghero—na hindi niya alam, ay ang bagong CEO ng Salvatore Holdings, kung saan siya nagtatrabaho bilang architect. Kinabukasan, halos himatayin siya sa gulat nang makaharap ang lalaki sa opisina—ang cold and ruthless CEO na ngayon ay boss niya. Pero hindi siya pinansin. Parang hindi siya kilala. Parang walang nangyari. Pagbalik niya sa ospital kung saan naka-confine ang ina niyang may sakit sa puso, dumating ang mas masakit na balita—wala na ito. Cardiac arrest. Gumuho ang mundo ni Kira. Wala na ang ina niya. Nabaon siya sa utang. At nanganganib pa silang mapalayas sa inuupahan nila ng kapatid niya. Desperada siyang humingi ng cash advance sa HR, pero tinanggihan. Wala na siyang ibang malapitan kundi ang taong ayaw na ayaw sana niyang lapitan—si Anthony Salvatore. Pero sa halip na tulong o sermon, isang kontrata ang inabot nito. Pakakasalan daw niya si Anthony kapalit ng limang milyong piso at pagbabayad ng lahat ng utang nila. Sa harap ng mundo, asawa siya ng CEO. Pero sa loob ng mansion, parang boarder lang siya. Hanggang kailan niya kailangang tanggapin na papel lang ang ginagampanan niya sa buhay ng lalaking unti-unti niyang minamahal?
