The Necklace By Guy De Maupassant

Pendant longtemps, Lucien Armand était la seule lumière dans la vie de Léa Fontane. Jusqu’à ce que Lucien lui dise en face : « Mon mariage avec Mlle Morel ne sera pas annulé, mais tu peux continuer à être ma maîtresse. » Léa s’est réveillée tout à coup. Sa lumière s’est déjà changée en une ombre écrasante au-dessus de sa tête. Ce soir-là, Léa a quitté la famille Armand. Tout le monde pensait que Léa, orpheline, sans le soutien de la famille Armand, ne serait rien, et qu’en quelques jours à peine, elle serait incapable de survivre et finirait par supplier pour la réconciliation. Jusqu’au jour où, lors de la cérémonie d’union entre la famille Morel et la famille Armand, Léa est apparue sous les projecteurs, vêtue d’une robe rouge éclatante, au bras du dirigeant de la famille des Morel. Elle est soudainement devenue la belle-sœur de ce couple fraîchement marié. Tout le monde est resté bouche bée. Lucien croyait que Léa s’était donnée à un autre homme par sa faute, et il a serré les dents en voulant la ramener à lui. Mais une voix froide et calme l’a interrompu : « Fais un pas de plus, et tu regretteras. »

So it's either you come with me right now and willingly or I drag that pretty little ass while you kick and squirm. Choose wisely, Ramona." He yelled. I don't know why or how but looking at him now, the sweat running down his defined body, the way his biceps flexed and all, I felt a slight wetness pool at my panties. I clenched my legs tighter and decided to try my luck. "My name isn't Ramona either. That's my undercover name. My real name, my birth name, is Madi."
