You give me what I want, I'll give you what you want…” “And what do you have that I want?” the lady before him asked. “Money, power, connection… I've been watching you for a while, Miss Braun.

But after witnessing what you pulled today, my view about you changed…” “What does all these have to do with what I want?” “You want revenge, you want to deal with your sister and that prick for messing with you, you want to deal with that thing you call a brother for everything he has done to you, and your parents, they deserve a share of your rage too, for neglecting you…” “Get married to me, and I'll give you the money and power to get back at them." “What do you gain from this, Mr. Ferguson?” Gemma asked. “A wife…..What do you say to a two year marriage contract.

Narinig ni Amanda Moretti ang balitang ipapakasal siya ng kanyang ama sa isang lalaking hindi niya kilala—kaya tumakas siya mula sa tahanan ng kanyang mga magulang. Determinado siyang pumili ng sariling landas, nagsimula siyang mamuhay mag-isa at unti-unting binuo ang tahimik na kalayaang natagpuan niya sa kanyang maliit na apartment. Sa tulong ng isang bagay na siya mismo ang lumikha—isang app na ginawa niya upang matulungan siyang malampasan ang bawat araw—hindi lamang siya nakaraos kundi umangat pa. Lumago ang app, naging matagumpay, at kalaunan ay nakilala sa maraming lugar. Dahil sa tagumpay na iyon, nakilala niya ang isa sa kanyang mga kliyente—si Knoxx Xavier Vitale—isang lalaking hindi niya inakalang lubos na magbabago ng takbo ng kanyang buhay. Arogante at antipatiko. Sukdulan ang ugali nitong hindi tugma sa kanya. He kept on pestering her. Kaya nang inalok siya nitong magpanggap bilang nobya sa harapan ng mga magulang nito, sa una'y nagdadalawang-isip pa siya. Mentioning a hundred thousand dollars made her eyes sparkling of wealth. Napapayag siya nito. Ngunit mas may nakakagulat pang rebelasyon ang mangyayari kasunod.

On our wedding, my boyfriend of five years, Lucas Hunter, is in the middle of sliding the wedding ring onto my finger when a little boy rushes up to him and hugs his leg. "Daddy, please don't ditch me and Mommy!" At that moment, his first love, Isabella Welch, walks over and shows the paternity test report in front of all the guests. "On the night Lucas and I broke up six years ago, I was already pregnant with his child." Lucas' expression changes drastically. He subconsciously glances at me afterward. "I didn't know about this, Vivian!" "Well, you do now," Isabella cuts him off. "By the way, not only am I your son's biological mother, but I'm also the sole daughter of the richest woman in Andaysia." She then shows Lucas something on her phone. The next moment, his gaze becomes passionate immediately. "I've given up on my marriage alliance just to seek you out, Lucas. I am the woman you should be marrying instead of that…" Isabella eyes me up and down. "Instead of that regular corporate slave." Lucas stays silent only for a moment before retracting the ring that has touched my fingertip. Then, he slides it onto Isabella's finger. I can't believe it. Is this really the man I've loved for the past five years?" "Have you thought this through, Lucas?" Lucas leans in to murmur into my ear, "Vivian, once I've secured the major project in the company with Isabella's help and get custody over my son, I'll give you an even grander wedding." I just chuckle icily in return before leaving the altar without even sparing him a glance. After that, I call Alexander Shaw, an admirer who has loved me for ten years, on the phone. "Are you busy? If not, come here and marry me." Then, I turn back to look at the new couple, who are in the middle of making their vows. Isabelle calls herself the daughter of the richest woman in Andaysia, she says. But how is it possible for me to not know that my mom has swapped me out for another daughter?

“Let’s have a deal. Let me be your real wife just for one month, Dashiel.” Isang simpleng hiling iyon. Parang huling pakiusap ng isang babaeng pagod na pagod nang masaktan. Para kay Addison Leigh Castillo, iyon na lang ang natitira sa kanya, ang huling piraso ng dignidad kapalit ng pagmamahal na ibinigay niya kahit kailan ay hindi niya naranasang masuklian. Alam na ni Addison simula pa lang na ang kasal nila ay hindi dahil sa pag-ibig. Pinakasalan siya ni Dashiel Kristian Gutierrez dahil sa obligasyon at sa kagustuhan ng lola nito. Walang lambing, walang yakap, walang titig na may damdamin. Tahimik lang ang bahay, malamig, at hindi kailanman naging tahanan. Pero kahit ganoon, kumapit pa rin si Addison. Sinubukan niyang maging mabuting asawa. Tahimik siyang umasa na baka balang araw, matutunan siyang mahalin ni Dashiel. Hanggang sa unti-unti siyang naubos. Gusto nang pakasalan ni Dashiel ang babaeng mahal nito talaga. At ang mas masakit, buong pamilya nito ang pumayag. Doon tuluyang gumuho si Addison. Kaya gumawa siya ng isang huling kahilingan. Isang buwan lang. Isang buwan na tratuhin siya bilang tunay na asawa. Isang buwan na maramdaman kung ano ang pakiramdam na mahal ka. Pagkatapos noon, aalis na siya nang tuluyan. Para kay Dashiel, desperado lang si Addison. Isang babaeng ayaw pang bumitaw. Pero mali siya. Sa loob ng isang buwan, unti-unting nagbago ang lahat. Napansin niya ang mga ngiti ni Addison, ang tahimik pero buo nitong pagmamahal, at ang paraan ng pag-alis nito, walang reklamo, pero may iniwang sakit sa puso niya. Doon niya napagtanto ang lahat. Nang makita niya ang pagmamahal na matagal niyang binalewala, saka lang niya ito naramdaman. Pero huli na ba? O lalaban ba si Dashiel; sa pamilya, sa nakaraan, at sa sarili niyang pagkakamali, para sa isa pang pagkakataon? “One more chance,” bulong ng puso ni Dashiel. Pero handa pa bang bumalik si Addison… o tapos na talaga ang kwento nilang dalawa?
