Ten Thousands

Drei Geschichten in einer. Lesen Sie über die Warner-Schwestern Sutton, Blair und Keira. Mit ihrem arroganten Chef im Bett – Als sie nach Hause kommt und ihren Verlobten mit ihrer Cousine im Bett vorfindet, hätte das sie eigentlich fertigmachen müssen, aber Blair weigert sich, zusammenzubrechen. Sie ist stark, kompetent und entschlossen, weiterzumachen. Was sie nicht geplant hat, ist, ihren Kummer in zu viel Scotch ihres Chefs zu ertränken ... oder im Bett mit ihrem skrupellosen, gefährlich charmanten Chef Roman zu landen. Eine Nacht. Das sollte alles gewesen sein. Aber im kalten Licht des Tages ist es gar nicht so einfach, einfach wegzugehen. Roman ist kein Mann, der loslässt – vor allem nicht, wenn er sich einmal entschlossen hat, dass er mehr will. Er will Blair nicht nur für eine Nacht. Er will sie, Punkt. Und er hat nicht die Absicht, sie gehen zu lassen.

Mit gebrochenem Herzen und allein verschwindet Audrey und kehrt zu ihrer wahren Identität als Sutton Warner zurück. Monate später führt sie eine Wendung des Schicksals wieder zusammen, als Luca das Technologieunternehmen übernimmt, in dem Sutton arbeitet. Er ist fassungslos, als er die Wahrheit entdeckt: Nicht nur, dass sie sein Kind erwartet, „Audrey“ hat nie existiert. Sie ist in Wirklichkeit Sutton, eine begabte Programmiererin, deren Verstand ebenso schön ist wie ihr Gesicht.

At dinner, Tiffany White grabs my fiance's phone and spends 100 thousand dollars on a designer bag. She even sticks her tongue at me. "Come on, Meredith. You're loaded. You won't mind such a small amount, right? Shawn and I share everything. His money is my money," she says. Everyone at the table waits for me to lose my temper or smile and let it slide like a saint. Instead, I calmly take out a voice recorder and my laptop from my bag and adjust my gold-rimmed glasses. "100 thousand meets the threshold for criminal filing. Since you said you two share everything, I have to ask—is this embezzlement or an illegal transfer tied to an improper personal relationship? "Oh, and what you just said about 'his money is my money'? I recorded that. According to the supplemental clauses in our prenup and the company bylaws, I'm officially initiating an asset-freezing order against Shawn Harrison." I turn to Tiffany. "Enjoy your free meals in prison, Ms. White." Shawn is livid. "It was just a joke, Meredith. Is it really necessary to ruin me over this?" I hit the "enter" key. "Sorry. In my book, there are no jokes—only bad debt."

On the day the gauze was removed from my eyes, I joked that I was blind. "Don't be afraid if you can't see. I'll take care of you my entire life." My husband and best friend took care of me while I was in the hospital. They sincerely made that promise to me. However, when we got home, all three of us were on the same bed. My best friend rode on top of my husband breathlessly. They were caught up in their intimacy as they thought I could not see. My best friend was worried I would suspect something and spoke up to eliminate any suspicion. "Uhh… Summer, I'm just giving your husband a massage." I was so disgusted that I wanted to throw up, but I held myself back. Once they were done, I was about to find an excuse to leave the room when my five-year-old suddenly ran in. "I miss you so much, Mom!" Hearing that warmed my heart, and I opened my arms to hug him, but he ran past me and lay down next to my best friend instead. The 'happy family of three' were all smiles and threw me looks of disgust. I could no longer tolerate this. When I called my lawyer, I told him to bring me the divorce papers. If they wanted to become a family so badly, I would make their wish come true. I just did not know if my best friend could afford to earn a decent enough income to take care of my useless husband and son.
