Shut Em Up Shortcake

I got into a car crash with my adoptive sister. The first person to rush to the scene was my childhood sweetheart, Jay Porter—the guy I'd been secretly seeing for two years. But Jay went to her first. He didn't even look my way as I sat there, bleeding heavily on the side of the road. I grabbed his hand, desperate to tell him I was pregnant. He just shook me off. "Sorry, Emma. Julia's delicate. I have to get her to the hospital now. Just wait here for the paramedics." By the time the rescue team got me to the hospital, I was out of immediate danger. But my baby... was gone. I wanted to confront Jay, to demand an explanation. Instead, I overheard him talking to a friend. "You played Emma this whole time, just for Julia's sake. Don't you think that's going too far?" Jay's reply was cold. "So what? Julia's just the Bourne family's adopted daughter—she's never been as protected and cherished as Emma, the precious heiress. That's exactly why it has to be me. I'll protect Julia. For her, I'd do anything." So it was all a lie. Every bit of love he'd ever shown me was just an act. After I was discharged, I went straight home and called my father. "Dad, can you make it so I never existed here? Erase all my records from this country."

Depois de renascer, decidi devolver meu noivo à sua primeira namorada.​​ ​Quando ele organizou uma despedida de solteiro para ela e não queria ser incomodado por mim, eu simplesmente fugi para outro país.​​ ​Ele disse que ficava irritado só de me ver; eu me demiti de forma rápida e limpa.​​ ​Ele sentia-se desconfortável em estar no mesmo país que eu; eu me mudei para o exterior imediatamente.​​ ​Por fim, ele quis dar mais segurança à primeira namorada.​​ ​Eu concordei com a cabeça e aceitei o pedido de casamento de outra pessoa.​​ ​Eu o obedeci uma e outra vez.​​ ​Tudo porque em minha vida passada, depois que me casei com ele, a primeira namorada, em um colapso, cortou os pulsos e cometeu suicídio.​​ ​Ele me culpou por tê-los separado, esfolou-me, arrancou meus tendões e drenou todo o sangue do meu corpo.​​ ​Desta vez, eu só quero viver em paz.​​ ​Mais tarde, enquanto eu, meu novo marido e nosso filho dávamos um passeio,​​ ​ele se ajoelhou diante de mim, chorando com uma dor tão intensa que parecia partir suas entranhas.​​ — Clarice, se você deixá-los, eu ficarei com você e vamos viver bem juntos.

When I was waiting for Theodore at City Hall from dawn to dusk, he was accompanying his first love on a hike. I called him dozens of times, but he rejected my calls instantly each time. He finally picked up on the twentieth call. "Why are you blowing up my phone when you simply didn't see me for a day? Why are you acting so desperate? Sammy's feeling unwell because of her heart and I still need to take care of her at the hospital. We'll talk later about registering our marriage." Ten years of love. This was the 100th time Theodore had left me alone in front of City Hall for his first love. I hung up and calmly tossed the wedding ring away. This marriage? I was done with it.

— Hmm… Vai mais devagar… A ligação do meu marido ainda tá aberta. Eu estava apoiada no chão, com o quadril bem erguido. Seguia as instruções do meu marido enquanto mudava de posição, provocante e obediente a cada palavra dele. Do outro lado da linha, o personal trainer segurava firme a minha cintura. Deu um tapa forte no meu traseiro. Guiado pela voz do meu marido, ele avançou com um movimento seco e decidido.

Depois de se casar, Alice Castro recebeu o diagnóstico que caiu como uma sentença: ela tinha enorme dificuldade para engravidar. Ela enfrentou hormônios, injeções e incontáveis consultas até, finalmente, conseguir uma gestação por fertilização in vitro. Mas, quando ela mal começava a se acostumar com a ideia de ser mãe, um choque ainda maior veio à tona: os bebês na barriga dela, na verdade, eram filhos do próprio marido com o primeiro amor dele. — Mano, você foi genial dessa vez. Fez a Alice gerar os filhos seus com o seu primeiro amor. Quando as crianças nascerem, vão ser de vocês dois. A Alice, no fim, não passa de uma barriga de aluguel. O marido de Alice, Michel Monteiro, deu um sorriso frio, sem nenhum traço de culpa: — A Iolanda morre de medo de sentir dor. Como é que ela ia aguentar tudo o que uma gravidez exige? A Alice sempre quis ter filhos meu. Eu só realizei o sonho dela. Alice passou a odiá‑lo com cada célula do corpo. Só que, no hospital, outro segredo veio à superfície: Michel tinha esperma fraco, quase infértil. O laboratório tinha trocado os embriões. Os bebês que Alice carregava não eram do Michel. Eram filhos dela com um magnata misterioso. Ninguém jamais tinha amado Alice de verdade. Então ela pensou: "Se ninguém me ama, vou colocar esses filhos no mundo e deixar que eles me amem." Quando Alice finalmente conseguiu se divorciar e estava pronta para ir embora sem olhar para trás, o ex‑marido, Michel, desabou num arrependimento tardio: — Amor, não vai embora! Nesse exato momento, o homem misterioso apareceu atrás de Alice. Ele a puxou para dentro do abraço dele, sem a menor cerimônia. — Fiquei sabendo que você está grávida de filhos meus? — Perguntou ele, com a voz baixa, firme, como quem não aceitava discussão.

After my husband cheats, my relatives advise me to be tolerant and forgiving. Why? Because my husband's mistress is pregnant, and I'm infertile. Even his parents hurry to our house in the middle of the night to say, "Don't worry—we won't let that woman step foot in this house. Once she gives birth, the child will be yours." Is that so? I sneer as I look at a medical report. Perhaps the child will have something to do with me, but it definitely won't have anything to do with my husband.
