The Hidden Tycoon

"Knowing my real identity means DEATH." - Mafia Don Daven Verrano Costello **** Mahigit pitong taong naging consigliere ng Mafia Don sa bansang Italy si Daven Costello. Siya rin ang misteryosong CEO ng Philippines Bank Corporation (PBC) na may paid-in capital na 20 Billion Pesos. Nang mamatay ang boss ng kanilang mob ay nahirang siya bilang bagong pinuno. He's protective when it comes to his family's safety so he decided to keep it a secret. Ang akala ng marami ay isa lamang siyang hamak na secretary sa sarili niyang kompanya. Elera Luciano - ang nakamaskarang lider ng Asian Assasins at nagtatrabaho bilang General Manager sa PBC. Pinasok niya ang magulong mundo ng mafia para hanapin at pagbayarin ang taong pumaslang sa kaniyang tunay na ina. Dahil sa kalasingan, kalituhan at kapusukan, nagbunga ang isang gabing pinagsaluhan nina Daven at Elera. It was indeed a marriage before love set up dahil kapwa infatuation lang naman ang nararamdaman nila sa isa't isa bago pa may mangyari sa kanila. Nang magpakasal ang dalawa, naranasan ni Daven kung paano maliitin at ituring na parang basura ng kaniyang mga biyenan. Inalipusta, inapak-apakan at inalila. Maging si Elera ay itinuring na isang malaking kahihiyan ng kaniyang mga magulang. Hanggang isang araw, hindi na natiis ni Daven ang lahat. Nagimbal ang mundo ng angkan ng Luciano nang malaman nila ang tunay na katauhan ni Daven.

After returning from my business trip, I saw my wife lying on the couch in an alluring position. I initially thought it was a surprise, but the next moment, I spotted a hidden camera in the corner of the TV cabinet. It turned out that my wife had been secretly...

“Go to jail for me, and once you come out, I will definitely marry you.” Those words from Gavin had been ringing in Lila’s head for three years since she agreed to go to jail to save him. She could not understand why words meant so little to him and why he was okay with betraying her like that. How did three years of her life just go to waste? Those words were the only reason she agreed to go to jail for him—how could he? “Gavin, I am going to report to the police that you were the one behind the wheels that night.” “I would not do that if I were you if you want to see your child ever again.” Lila gasped in shock; she could not believe that this man who had been madly in love with her was doing this to her. ”How could you?” “Just get lost, and you will be reunited with your child soon.” Lila stood outside the gate after Gvain and his new wife had thrown her out; she clutched her hand by her side and muttered to herself. “I am going to get my revenge.” Damien had been following the life of Lila since she ran down and killed his wife; he hated her without knowing her; he hated that she was given such a severe punishment; he hated that she was let go too early because of good behaviour. He swore that he had to get revenge no matter what. “I must get my revenge, Lila Carson.”

I turn down a dream research program at Hefford University just so I can stay and help my debt-ridden boyfriend run a burger stand. This time, he says he's serious. I give him all the money I've saved up over the years, hoping we can build a better future together. A few hours later, I discover he's forgotten two hundred dollars in the drawer. I grab the money and run out, hoping to catch him. What I catch is a scene straight out of a corny movie. The loan sharks who used to beat and threaten him are now bowing and nodding deferentially. "Sir, I guess we don't need to show up at your house anymore, right?" Kurt Saunders rubs his temples and replies, "Yup. Anna gave up her entire future for me. She even turned down an opportunity to study at Hefford just to help me pay off my debts." Before he even finishes, his childhood friend lets out a giggle. "Kurt, that's still not enough. You'll only know if she really doesn't mind being poor if she sticks around through a year of flipping burgers without any complaints." Kurt looks at her sly expression and lets out a helpless laugh. "Alright, we'll do it your way. One more year of pretending. Anna would never leave me anyway." I stand there, listening to the sound of my own heart shatter. Kurt, you think I'm giving up my future for you, but it's still mine, and I can take it back.

You have been cheating on me?” I whispered as I stared at my husband who was shamelessly hugging my stepsister in my presence. He shrugged. “You don't call it cheating when I never saw you as my wife. Besides, you are barren.”  "I want a divorce." He blurted out coldly without looking at me. I gasped in shock, my heart breaking into a thousand pieces as tears fell down my cheeks. "You want a divorce after everything?" I choked out, "I gave you my love, my kidney, Liam. I risked my life for you. And you know...  you know I can’t conceive because of that surgery.” He didn’t flinch...  He didn’t even look guilty. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and said with cold finality, “And I gave you a luxury life you could never afford. I think that is enough compensation for whatever you think you have done for me.” His voice was ice, no emotion, no remorse. I pressed a hand to my chest as the pain tightened around my heart. God, He just reduced my sacrifices to a transaction… a trade for comfort. So after everything, that’s all I was to him? A debt he paid off with money? ***************************************************** Aliyah lost her womb after giving her kidney to save her husband’s life.
