Scarlett Savage

Sehari sebelum pesta kelulusan SMA, Ethan menyeretku ke ranjang. Gerakannya kasar dan dia menuntutku sepanjang malam. Meski tubuhku kesakitan, hatiku justru dipenuhi rasa manis. Aku telah diam-diam mencintai Ethan selama sepuluh tahun. Akhirnya, impianku menjadi nyata. Dia bilang, setelah lulus, dia akan menikahiku. Begitu dia mewarisi kekuasaan Keluarga Luciano dari ayahnya, aku akan menjadi wanita paling terhormat dalam keluarga itu. Keesokan paginya, Ethan memelukku erat dan mengaku pada kakak angkatku bahwa kami telah bersama. Aku duduk malu-malu dalam pelukannya, merasa diriku adalah wanita paling beruntung di dunia. Namun tiba-tiba, mereka mengganti percakapan ke dalam bahasa Italia. Lucas, kakak tiriku, menggoda Ethan dengan tawa, "Nggak heran kamu disebut-sebut sebagai Bos Muda. Baru pertama kali saja sudah ada primadona kelas yang nyerahin diri ke kamu." "Gimana rasanya adik tiriku?" Ethan menjawab dengan nada santai, "Luarannya memang tampak polos, tapi di ranjang ... luar biasa liar." Gelak tawa memenuhi ruangan itu. "Jadi, ke depannya aku harus panggil dia adik atau kakak ipar?" tanya Lucas. Namun, wajah Ethan tiba-tiba berubah dingin. "Kakak ipar apanya? Aku lagi coba dekati kapten tim pemandu sorak, takut dia kecewa sama kemampuanku, jadi Cynthia aku jadikan latihan dulu." "Oh ya, soal aku tidur sama Cynthia, jangan sampai Sylvia tahu. Aku takut dia marah." Tanpa mereka ketahui, aku diam-diam telah belajar bahasa Italia, hanya agar kelak bisa lebih dekat dengan Ethan. Mendengar semua itu, aku tidak berkata apa pun. Aku hanya diam-diam mengubah tujuan pendaftaran universitasku dari Caxtech menjadi Maltech.

The year my boyfriend is dead broke, I leave him. Later, he becomes a mafia boss and uses every means at his disposal to marry me. Everyone says that I am the first love he can never forget, the wife he cares about the most. However, he then starts bringing home a different woman every night, making me a laughingstock. Still, I don't cry or make a fuss. I quietly stay in my own room, never interrupting his affairs. Elton Carter is furious. He pins me beneath him, kisses me harshly, and growls, "Aren't you jealous?" He has no idea that I'm gravely ill. He could buy half the city with violence, threats, and money. He could buy my freedom, my marriage… and each night bring a different woman home, oblivious to the truth. Little does he know, I have just seven days left to live.

To keep her distance. But Dorian has other plans…plans that could expose their darkest secret and burn their world to the ground. This summer, Katherine will have to decide, fight the fire or let it consume her whole.

Di tahun kedelapan pernikahan, aku akhirnya hamil anak Renaldo Santoso. Ini adalah upaya bayi tabung-ku yang keenam dan terakhir. Dokter bilang aku sudah tidak perlu menderita lagi. Aku sangat gembira dan siap menyampaikan kabar baik ini kepadanya. Namun seminggu sebelum ulang tahun pernikahan, aku menerima foto anonim. Di dalam foto, dia sedang menunduk dan mencium perut wanita lain yang sedang hamil. Wanita itu adalah teman masa kecilnya. Wanita lembut, penurut dan tahu bagaimana cara menyenangkan orang tua. Dia bahkan sejak kecil tumbuh besar bersama Renaldo, merupakan menantu perempuan ideal. Yang paling konyol adalah seluruh keluarganya tahu tentang anak itu, hanya aku yang diperlakukan sebagai bahan lelucon. Ternyata pernikahan penuh masalah yang selama ini aku pertahankan, hanyalah tipu daya yang dirancang dengan hati-hati. Sudahlah. Aku sudah tidak menginginkan Renaldo lagi. Anakku tidak boleh lahir dalam kebohongan ini. Aku sudah memesan tiket pesawat untuk pergi, tepat di hari ulang tahun pernikahan kami yang kedelapan. Hari itu, seharusnya dia menemaniku pergi melihat kebun mawar. Itu janjinya sebelum kami menikah, dia akan memberiku sebuah kebun bunga yang khusus untukku.

Dia memohon padaku. “Jangan pergi, ya?” “Aku bersalah… tolong, jangan pergi.” Dia menanam semua mawar terindah di dunia di kebun mawar itu. Dia akhirnya ingat janjinya padaku. Tapi aku tidak lagi membutuhkannya...
