Rachel Joy

Putriku sakit parah dan membutuhkan sejumlah besar uang untuk pengobatan. Sementara itu, suamiku bukan hanya langsung menyerah dalam memberikan pengobatan, tetapi juga memulai hubungan asmara dengan teman masa kecilnya, Rachel Linata. Dalam keputusasaan, cinta pertamaku, Collin Luandra, mentransfer 10 miliar ke rekeningku dan menemaniku merawat putriku. Namun, putriku tetap tidak dapat terlepas dari cengkeraman maut. Enam tahun kemudian, Collin dan aku memiliki anak sendiri. Saat pergi ke rumah sakit untuk melakukan pemeriksaan kehamilan sendirian, aku mendengar percakapan Collin dengan dokter. "Pak Collin, kamu dan Bu Rhea juga sudah punya anak kalian sendiri sekarang. Gimana kalau apa yang terjadi waktu itu terungkap?" "Waktu itu, Rachel sakit parah. Aku mau nggak mau pakai sedikit trik supaya Rachel bisa terima transplantasi jantung dari anak itu. Lagian, Rhea sudah hamil lagi sekarang. Dia seharusnya nggak akan permasalahkan hal itu lagi." Saat ini, aku baru menyadari bahwa putriku sengaja didiagnosis secara salah. Collin telah diam-diam mentransplantasikan jantungnya kepada Rachel.

Rachel Larson was adamant about marrying me, and she spent ten years stealing my heart. On the night before our wedding, I overheard her conversation with her friend. "You're marrying Leonardo? What about your side piece?" A moment of silence later, Rachel answered, "That guy? He's just a cheap replacement. Leonardo's the real deal. Don't compare my side piece to him. If he stays put and keeps his mouth shut, I might let him stay around. Leonardo's a broad-minded man. He won't mind." The side piece did not stay put. In fact, he caused a scene at the wedding the next day. He shoved me off the stage, but the woman who was supposed to marry me darted over to his side instead. Why? He was holding a piece of broken glass against his throat. Gutturally, he roared, "Choose! Me or him?" Panicked, Rachel kicked me away despite my injuries, and she roared, "Get out of the way! I need to take him to the hospital! If anything happens to him, I'll kill you!" She didn't need to wait that long. My heart died right there and then. … That night, I bought a flight ticket that would take me abroad and left her.

Le jour de son mariage, Rachel voit son monde s’écrouler. Droguée par sa demi-sœur, accusée à tors , rejetée par son père et son fiancé, elle fuit la maison familiale en titubant. Son esprit s’embrouille, son cœur bat trop vite, et la drogue qui circule dans son corps devient insupportable. Elle n’a qu’une pensée : s’éloigner de tous. À la mairie, alors qu’elle cherche à annuler sa demande de mariage, Rachel perd l’équilibre et s’effondre contre un inconnu qu’elle prend pour un chauffeur. Un homme au regard froid, à la présence dangereuse, qui semble absorber tout l’air autour d’elle. Elle ignore qu’il s’agit de Hendery Lamber, héritier du puissant empire Lamber, un milliardaire tout juste humilié par la fuite de sa propre fiancée. Rachel, tremblante, incapable de supporter les effets croissants de la drogue, murmure d’une voix brisée : « Aidez-moi… faites quelque chose… je n’en peux plus. » Hendery comprend l’urgence. Sans poser de questions, il la porte jusqu’à sa voiture de luxe. Avant de monter, il ordonne à son assistant, d’une voix glaciale : « Prépare un certificat de mariage. À nos deux noms. Tout de suite. » Pendant que l’ordre s’exécute, Hendery reste seul avec Rachel à l’arrière du véhicule. Alors Hendery l’attire contre lui, l’apaise, et la mène exactement là où elle a supplié d’être emmenée, répondant à ce besoin irrépressible qu’elle n’arrivait plus à contenir Un silence brûlant s’installe. Chaque geste, chaque souffle, chaque contact physique est chargé de tension et d’intimité, la poussant à se calmer, à se sentir protégée et… étrangement liée à cet homme qu’elle ne connaît presque pas. et pour hendery Rachel lui appartient désormais.

When Joy Staton, my adoptive sister, fainted in the freezer on her birthday, William Staton, my brother, checked on the security footage in rage. The moment he saw that I was the one who took Joy into the freezer, he kicked me inside without hesitation. Before shutting the door, he stared at me in disgust. “You’ve been pushing your luck a lot these days, huh? If I’d been a second too late, Joy would’ve died!” I wanted to defend myself, but William refused to listen and slammed the door shut. I heard him talking to the bodyguards outside. “If she doesn’t apologize, don’t let her out!” But he did not know that Joy had set the freezer to –58 °F. I did not even have the strength to complain about the freezer being cold. William did not know that the sister he once loved dearly had stopped breathing in the freezer. He had killed his only blood relative left in the world.

"Please tell them it's a lie," I whispered in my quivering voice and looked up into his eyes. They were cold. Emotionless. "This marriage isn't one from my end." He crashed his lips into mine taking them for a dominant, rough kiss. My eyes teared up as the scenes of my tortured future flashed in my mind. "Welcome to hell Rachel. I warned you not to play with me." His bone-chilling voice rang in my ears. What will happen when Vincenzo forces himself into Rachel's life? Where will this forced marriage lead them to?

Le jour des cinq ans de mon fils Oliver, je lui avais préparé son gâteau préféré, sans allergènes. Et ce jour-là, il m'a dit qu'il voulait que Rachel, la secrétaire de mon mari, soit sa maman. Pendant que je travaillais sans relâche pour offrir à mon mari et à mon fils une vie privilégiée, ils sont allés au parc d'attractions avec Rachel, pour manger des glaces ensemble. Même après ça, j'ai continué à faire des heures supplémentaires pour soigner mes patients… alors qu'à la maternelle, Oliver a nié que j'étais sa mère, affirmant que Rachel était sa "maman biologique". Et pourtant, j'ai continué à croire leurs belles paroles. Même quand j'ai découvert une vieille photo de Derek et Rachel, prise bien avant que je ne rencontre mon mari. Je croyais qu'en tant que Guérisseuse en chef de la Meute de la Lune de Sang, je pouvais réparer n'importe quelle blessure… Mais certaines trahisons sont trop profondes, même pour la magie la plus puissante. Il est temps, désormais, qu'ils comprennent combien j'ai payé pour construire notre "petite famille parfaite". Il est temps qu'ils me rendent tout ce que je leur ai donné.

I take my daughter, Joy Silver, to the healer for a routine check-up. My Alpha husband, Ethan Silver, who has been away on a business trip for a few days, comes to pick us up. The moment we meet, he possessively pulls Joy and me into his arms. It's as if we are his whole world. But I catch a faint, unfamiliar scent. As Joy snuggles up to her father affectionately, I force a smile, ignoring the sudden tightness in my chest. It isn't until we get in the car that I notice a woman sitting in the back seat. So it's her scent. A thought that has circled in my mind countless times surfaces once more. I want to leave him.
