Sad Story

“Can—Can you say that again?” I plead, assuming that I misheard his original verdict. “Six months, if you’re lucky,” he says, flipping through his clipboard of papers. “This pregnancy has accelerated your hepatocirrhosis, which will likely only leave you with less than half a year of life expectancy.” Bad mate could destroy you and tear your soul apart. 5 years ago, Harold was a new alpha with his manipulative soon-to-be luna girlfriend Alicia.

Aku Istri, Tapi Bukan Satu-satunya Pernikahan yang kujalani bertahun-tahun kupikir dibangun dari kepercayaan dan pengorbanan. Aku istri yang sah, perempuan yang menjaga rumah, nama, dan harga diri suaminya. Hingga suatu hari aku sadar, status sebagai istri tak lagi menjadikanku satu-satunya. Kehadiran perempuan lain memecah hidupku menjadi dua: sebelum aku tahu, dan setelah aku tak bisa lagi berpura-pura. Aku dipaksa berdamai dengan kenyataan bahwa cintaku tak cukup untuk membuatku dipilih. Di antara pengkhianatan yang dibungkus dalih tanggung jawab, aku dan perempuan itu sama-sama menjadi korban dari seorang lelaki yang ingin memiliki segalanya tanpa kehilangan apa pun. Ketika keadilan tak pernah benar-benar berpihak, aku dihadapkan pada pilihan paling kejam: bertahan dan perlahan menghilang, atau pergi dengan membawa luka yang tak pernah sembuh. Dalam pernikahan yang melibatkan tiga hati, tak ada pemenang—hanya perempuan yang dipatahkan, dan cinta yang berubah menjadi sesuatu yang tak lagi bisa disebut rumah.

Gilbert yang tak sengaja bertemu dengan Sheilla yang merupakan ibu tiri dari sahabat dekatnya , dan nekat untuk mendekatinya walau cinta mereka terhalang umur waktu dan status

Ibuku, wanita shaliha, cantik jelita dan istri yang berbakti pada suaminya, ternyata memiliki simpanan pria muda. Awalnya aku tahu ketika salah seorang teman baikku, bertemu dengan ibuku di bandara. Dari rekaman ponsel temanku itu sepertinya kedua orang beda usia itu sedang beradegan perpisahan yang menyedihkan. Dengan linangan air mata, ibuku memeluk pria muda itu, mencium kedua pipinya dan melambaikan tangan saat pemuda itu akan menaiki pesawat. Kemudian ibuku meninggalkan bandara dengan wajah tertunduk dan pipi basah. Siapa sebenarnya pemuda tampan itu? Mengapa ibuku begitu sedih saat mereka berpisah. Haruskan aku mengadukan hal ini pada ayahku? Ayahku saat ini sedang mengikuti pertarungan untuk menjadi kepala daerah, jika aku mengadu tentu akan mengganggu konsentrasinya. Mengapa di saat seperti ini, ibuku justru tidak bisa menjaga sikapnya? Berduaan dengan seorang pria muda di tempat umum, bukankah hal tersebut bisa menjadi lawan ayahku untuk menjegal dan mengalahkan ayahku? Siapa sebenarnya pemuda itu? Dengan meminta bantuan temanku itu, aku diam diam menyelidiki ibuku. Dan fakta yang kutemukan ternyata sangat mengejutkan...

At the class session joined by the school leaders and officials from the Department of Education, my lecture PPT was swapped for a sensational "Mistress's Charge Letter". "Charge one. Willingly being the other woman makes her an unsuitable role model for students." "Charge two. Attempting to secure a higher position through sex." "Charge three. Menacing the lawful wife with the absurd hope of advancing through pregnancy." Amidst the leaders and officials, my husband's illegitimate child accused me of disrupting her parents' marriage. In the name of "expelling the mistress to achieve justice", she coerced me, the true wife, into a humiliating bow to the mistress. I confronted my husband upon his arrival, "Care to explain? Why didn't I know that you had an illegitimate daughter?" He responded with a strike to the girl's face. "Where are you from, you unruly child? You're so ill-mannered!"

My father-in-law said he wanted to experience "how the young folks have fun these days," so I took him to my wife's newly opened upscale cocktail bar for a quiet drink. I’d just finished ordering him a custom cocktail when a man from a booth across the room swaggered over, glass in hand. His eyes scanned the drink menu on our table, and a condescending smirk twisted his lips. "Only ordering the cheapest well drinks?" he sneered. "Brought the old man here to enjoy the free air conditioning? Trash like you belongs in a dive bar. Who even let you in here?" Anger burned in my chest. I stood up, my jaw clenched. "We're paying customers. What's it to you?" But before I could say another word, his face darkened with pure rage. He snatched the half-finished beer bottle from our table and smashed it on my head. "My girl owns this place!" he snarled. "Even if I crack your skull open, I can afford the payout! You filthy pauper—either get on your knees and lick my shoes dry, or get the hell out of my sight. You're an eyesore." The beer dripped down my face. My hands trembled with fury as I wiped it away. Then, a cold calm settled over me. I opened my phone, switched to the camera, and went live. "Alright, everyone," I said into the screen. "You won't want to miss this. We're going live to catch my cheating wife and see the double life she's been leading."

After my parents were killed in a territory war, I was taken in by Don Moretti, head of New York's most powerful crime family. I was the only civilian in a world of made men. For twenty years, I was raised alongside his twin heirs, Marco and Santino. Their protection and favor made me the envy of every aspiring mob wife in the city. But when I was finally ready to become a real part of the family, they both turned me down. Marco said, "I need to focus on expanding our territory first. I'm not ready for this kind of commitment." Santino said, "An outsider can't be trusted with family secrets." The next night, at my birthday celebration, they both proposed to the daughter of a low-level enforcer. To prove their loyalty to her, they let her force me to drink "The Don's Fire"—a 150-proof grappa laced with ghost peppers that would hospitalize anyone who wasn't raised on it since childhood. Broken in body and spirit, I made a call from my hospital bed. "I accept the proposal from the Luciano Syndicate."

On our anniversary, my husband, James Marshall, purchased a painting as a gift for me with my secondary credit card. When I got home, I went to my study to retrieve an urgent court document. The door was slightly ajar. Inside, I could hear the flirtatious voice of my assistant, Julie Summers, mingled with my husband’s low murmurs. “James, your wife is just a money-printing machine. What does she know about art? She could never appreciate you like I do.” James sighed. Then, in an indulgent tone, he said, “Claire is too perfect—so perfect it’s suffocating. Not like you, full of life and warmth.” Just then, my mother-in-law, Susan Marshall, called James. He put her on speakerphone. “James, you need to move faster. While Claire still trusts you, turn all her client contacts into yours. That Julie girl seems promising. She’s much easier to control than that iron-fisted career wife of yours.” I gripped the cold doorknob, listening to the pair of shameless lovers in the study and the wretched woman on the phone, and immediately drafted a divorce agreement. At the same time, I forwarded asset-protection filings for all my holdings to my legal team. “I’ll see you all in court, parasites.”

During our decade together, I stay by Felix Valentino's side as he slowly ascends to the peak of the mafia world. I become the woman he trusts most. However, he secretly names an island that we fought for and won together after my best friend, Lilian Fenati. Why? Because Lilian is terminally ill. Her dying wish is to marry Felix on the island named after her. Felix clamps down on this and forbids anyone from telling me. He has no idea Lilian live streams the whole thing for me. That night, I cry my heart out. Meanwhile, Felix spends the night with Lilian. I lie in a pool of blood. My heart condition acts up, and my breathing starts to slow. Where is Felix? At the hospital with Lilian. Five days later, I accept a marriage proposal from Harold Bonanno, the mafia king.

When I was ten years old, I was kidnapped by some human traffickers, where I was sold to an old widow as her slave. She locked me up in a pig sty and had me solve all of my basic needs there, be it eating, drinking, or defecating. My life there was less than that of livestock. My parents never gave up on looking for me. They managed to save me when I was 17 years old. On the day I get reunited with them, my mom's eyes redden when she notices how skinny I've become. "Oh dear, just how much have you suffered, my child?" My dad just keeps slapping himself the whole time. "We're so sorry, Silas…" Even my younger brother reaches out, hoping to take me home. That's when I finally realize that I have a home now. In order to repay my family for their benevolence, I've laced their food with the most potent poison. That way, their deaths will be painless.
