Samuel Kim Arredondo

To cure my husband Samuel Harding's condition, I chose to major in urology, specifically male urology, when deciding on my field of study in college. After graduating, I became an andrologist. Yet, even after successfully treating Samuel, he wasn’t grateful. Instead, he secretly mocked me, calling me the ‘Master of Fixing Men’s Private Parts,’ and admitted that the thought of me made him feel sick. So, I calmly decided on divorce. However, on the eve of our divorce, he changed his mind.

Terperangkap dalam bayang-bayang pria yang seharusnya hanya asing baginya, Arsila mendapati dirinya terikat oleh Samuel—bukan sekadar sebagai pembantu, tetapi sebagai obsesi yang tak terhindarkan. Sentuhan yang terlalu lama, tatapan yang menuntut lebih, hingga sebuah gairah tak tertahan. Mereka seolah tenggelam dalam permainan berbahaya, di mana batas antara keinginan dan kendali semakin kabur. Dan dalam jeratan itu, Arsila mulai bertanya-tanya: apakah ia masih memiliki dirinya, atau telah menjadi milik Samuel sepenuhnya?

Di perjamuan keluarga, Ibu mengeluarkan beberapa foto pria dan bertanya siapa yang ingin kujadikan pasangan dalam pernikahan politik ini. Di kehidupan ini, aku tak lagi memilih Samuel. Sebagai gantinya, aku mengeluarkan sebuah foto dari dalam tas dan menyerahkannya padanya. Di foto itu bukan Samuel Gusmawan, melainkan paman kecilnya Jeffrey Gusmawan, penguasa sejati Keluarga Gusmawan saat ini. Ibu menatapku dengan penuh keterkejutan. Bagaimana tidak? Aku telah mengejar Samuel selama bertahun-tahun. Tapi yang Ibu tak tahu, di kehidupan sebelumnya, setelah aku menikah dengan Samuel, dia hampir tak pernah pulang ke rumah. Aku selalu mengira itu karena pekerjaannya yang terlalu sibuk. Setiap kali ada yang bertanya, aku selalu menyalahkan diri sendiri, seolah-olah semua itu adalah kesalahanku. Sampai di hari peringatan pernikahan kami yang ke-20, aku tak sengaja menjatuhkan kotak yang selama ini terkunci rapat di dalam lemari. Saat itulah aku menyadari, sejak awal hingga akhir, orang yang ia cintai adalah adikku sendiri. Ia tidak pulang bukan karena sibuk, melainkan karena ia tak ingin melihatku. Namun di hari pernikahan, saat aku menyerahkan cincin kawin pada Jeffrey, Samuel menjadi gila.

During a family dinner, I, Ingrid Sutherland, bring up divorce. My husband, Samuel Ziegler, lets out a cold laugh in exasperation. "Are you mad just because I peeled a banana for Whitney two days ago? I can't believe you're still throwing a tantrum over that now! She's my sister-in-law. What's wrong if I show her a little bit more care?" He did the same thing in my past life. Ever since his older brother, Charles Ziegler, got seriously hurt, Samuel always put me last and prioritized taking care of the supposedly weaker Whitney Lovette. Whenever I voiced my dissatisfaction, he would criticize me while standing on an irrefutable moral high ground. He would say, "Why can't you be more understanding and cut Whitney some slack?" When it was Whitney's birthday, she proposed going on a skiing trip. But then, an avalanche hit us. Samuel protected her the whole time and led her down the mountain. However, he left me to die in the avalanche. It was then I realized that Whitney was not just his sister-in-law, but also the one he loved. When I remain silent, Samuel chuckles derisively. "You'd better not regret it." It's like he's sure I'm just throwing a tantrum. In one fluid movement, he glides a pen across the bottom of the page, confident and composed. But this time, I'm really giving up on him for good.

“Uh, sir, maybe it's better for you to get dressed first?" Amy said. “No need, Ms. Brooke. I'm more comfortable this way.” Samuel smiled, pulling Amy's hand so her position was closer to him. “Besides, I won't need the towel for much longer.” Amy frowned to hear that. “What do you mean?” “Please, Ms. Brooke, ah, maybe I should call you Amy instead. After this, we will be more intimate. It will be awkward to call each other by our last name. Agree?” *** Amy Brooke (twenty years old), the eldest daughter of Brooke's family, has everything all women want: youth, beauty, wealth, and a great family. However, she will lose all in an event and changes her life immensely. Samuel Hoffner (thirty five years old), a billionaire, has everything all men want: great looks, wealth, popularity, and power. However, he is an anti-commitment guy. When they will meet each other and tie in a marriage contract, what will happen later? Can Amy make Samuel fall in love with her? Will their marriage survive or will it be only a short-term arrangement?
