Scientific Attitude

On the fifth year of Astrid Jenner and Reuben Judd's marriage, she accidentally stumbles upon him accompanying his secretary, Eleanor Sharpe, to a prenatal check-up, thus uncovering his affair. It makes her sacrifices in the past five years look like a total joke. Having realized that she no longer has a place in the Judd residence, Astrid decides to get a divorce. Pain and agony have already become a norm thanks to Eleanor's constant acts of provocation, Reuben's icy attitude toward her, and her family's frequent scolding. After the divorce, Astrid and Reuben meet once again. Now, she's head over heels in love with another man. As for Reuben, his ex-wife is now the apple of another man's eye. Once the banquet is over, Reuben grabs Astrid, his eyes already reddened and his posture all humble and pleading. In a choked-up tone, he asks, "Do you seriously not want me anymore?" Astrid just gazes at Reuben coldly. Before she knows it, she feels herself being pulled into the arms of Sidney Ziegler, the cold and noble-looking man next to her. He says coolly, "Mr. Judd, my wife and I want to go home soon. Do mind your manners." … Astrid once thought she was the biggest joke in the whole city. During her darkest times, a man, whom she has only met a few times, decides to take her home with him. After that, she finds out that there exists someone who adores her as though she were the most precious treasure in the world. Her tears are akin to thorns lodged in his side, and to him, she's the one he cherishes the most. Naturally, he doesn't have the heart to make her suffer, not in the slightest.

ALICE RILEY “I like you; you’re a wonderful girl. But your stubbornness? I can’t deal with that. Unless you change—” Before he could finish, I said goodbye and walked out. Just a week into dating, and all he could see was my so-called obstinance. Honestly, dating wasn’t my thing. Men admired my looks, sure, but my mind? That was a different story. A few dates were all it took for them to brand me as headstrong or argumentative. I was okay with that. I had no intention of changing myself to fit someone else’s expectations. Then came Vivian Scott, the enigmatic CEO of Scott Group. He was unlike anyone I’d met before. Why wasn’t he running for the hills like the rest? Did he actually think he could tame me, bend me to his will? VIVIAN SCOTT I had everything a man needed to make women swoon—looks, power, status, and wealth. Becoming the CEO of Scott Group at a young age had made me responsible, but it hadn’t dulled my appetite for fun. Whenever I encountered a beautiful woman, I knew exactly how she’d react. I never missed an opportunity to tease and charm my way into her good graces. It was all harmless fun—short-lived and never serious. That was until I met Alice Riley. Alice was gorgeous, no doubt, but it wasn’t just her beauty that intrigued me. Her sharp wit and unyielding attitude set her apart. She wasn’t like the women I’d known before. Unfortunately for her, she thought that throwing up walls and flaunting her defiance would keep me at bay. What’s more thrilling than conquering the impossible? I was determined to bring her to my track! __________ Cover Image Credit: Image by Freepik

Eleanor Sutton was in love with Harrison Luther since she was 20 years old. She married him when she turned 22. Five years into their marriage, they had yet to have a child together. Harrison kept protecting Eleanor from his family while enduring the pressure they kept inflicting on him. At that time, everyone claimed that Eleanor was Harrison's weak spot. But everything changed once news of Harrison having an illegitimate child was leaked. He kneeled in the downpour for the whole day afterward as a form of punishment. Then, he explained to Eleanor that it was just an accident, and that he vowed to love her and her only. So, Eleanor accepted the outcome of the illegitimate child being kept in the family, while the mistress was exiled far, far away. But despite Harrison's promise, his mistress, Winona Birch, still ended up moving into Eleanor's home, where she'd be cared for during her pregnancy. Harrison began skipping meetings for her sake, and he'd also ditch Eleanor just so he could go on strolls with Winona. In fact, he'd even abandon Eleanor halfway during their dates in order to be with Winona. The first time Eleanor brought up divorce, Harrison slit his wrists in the bathroom. He left a suicide note, claiming that he'd rather die than not being able to grow old with Eleanor. When divorce was brought up the second time, Harrison hurriedly pleaded to Eleanor to not leave him. But after multiple conflicts, his attitude toward her became wishy-washy. After their 100th argument, Eleanor ran away from their home. Harrison no longer went after her, thinking that she'd eventually return to his side. But she died in that rainy night. When Eleanor opens her eyes again, she finds out that she has returned to the day Harrison's illegitimate child is exposed. This time, she dials a number. "I shall accept the offer of becoming a war correspondent." Her editor reminds her that she won't be able to get in touch with the outside world once she embarks on this journey, and that she needs Harrison's permission in order to accept the offer. Eleanor merely replies, "I'll divorce Harrison soon. I'll depart on time in a week." She wants to make sure that Harrison will never be able to find her anymore.

RÉSUMÉ : Je l'ai vu prendre ses clés de voiture, ses gestes si différents de ceux de l'homme que je connaissais. « Où vas-tu, Ethan ? » ai-je demandé, le voyant se raidir quelques secondes avant de reprendre son attitude normale. Une réaction qui m'aurait échappé si je ne l'avais pas observé attentivement. « Au travail », répondit-il nonchalamment, un sourire froid plaqué sur le visage. Il me lança un regard qui me glaça le sang, laissa échapper un rire grave, puis partit. Quelques minutes plus tard, il revint. Son expression était cette fois radicalement différente. « Quoi ? Tu m'as déjà manqué ? » Sa voix résonna dans le couloir et un frisson me parcourut l'échine. Quelque chose avait changé. Et c'était le genre de changement qui rendait les choses mauvaises, voire catastrophiques. Un accident survenu plus tôt l'avait transformé. Les médecins disaient que c'était un effet secondaire qui disparaîtrait avec le temps. Mais les effets secondaires incluent-ils des baisers plus rudes, un sexe intense et addictif, et un mari qui m'appellerait par un autre nom et oublierait tout ce que je disais dès qu'il aurait le dos tourné ? Alors j'ai creusé plus profondément jusqu'à trouver la vérité. Deux hommes identiques. Des jumeaux. L'un est présumé mort depuis des années. L'autre a survécu. Tous deux prétendaient être mon mari. L'un jurait de m'aimer. L'autre a juré de le tuer avant qu'il ne puisse plus jamais s'approcher de moi. Désormais, chaque murmure, chaque caresse, chaque baiser me faisait me demander : « Qui était dans mon lit ? Et qui a survécu à cette nuit-là ? »
