The Scarlet Letter Summary Chapter 13

Halo Remington has spent her entire life in the shadows of her perfect twin sister, Scarlet, the golden child, the chosen one, the family's heiress. No one ever sees Halo, and that’s just the way her family prefers it. Until Talon Ashwood walks into their home with a contract and a choice that was never meant to be hers. Talon needs a bride, quickly. His father had made it clear, no marriage, no inheriting the Ashwood empire. Choosing Scarlet should be simple, expected. But when a single glance at an old portrait reveals a hidden twin, Talon makes a last-minute decision that shatters the room’s expectations. He no longer wants the golden daughter. No, he wants the quiet lamb hidden in the shadows. Pulled from her place behind the closed doors of her room, Halo is thrust into a deal she never saw coming. Marry him, and she would finally be free of her family’s control. Walk away, and she would remain unseen and unwanted, a ghost in her own life and a shadow in the footsteps of her sister. After coming to a decision and going through with it, Halo steps into a world of power, deception, and an attraction she never anticipated. But as secrets unravel and ruthless tactics ensue, Halo realizes that this marriage harboured far more than just a business deal. It was the cost of being chosen by an Ashwood.

"Siguro pwede naman nating gawin ito bilang isang beses lang." Sabi niya, "Halos nangyari na ito dati..." Ngunit mabilis niyang pinigil ang sarili at sa halip ay nagsabi, "Hindi naman malalaman ng nanay ko, bibiyaan kita." Sabi niya, tila lubhang desperado. "Hindi mo maiiwasang humiling pa ng higit pa, Scarlet," Mahinang pagtatalo ni Adrian. "Kung ganun, hindi naman ako makakasala kung gawin ko 'yon." Matapang niyang ipinagtatanggol. "Ibig sabihin, bakit hindi mo na lang iwan ang nanay ko at makipag-date ka na lang sa mga kapantay mong edad? O sa tingin mo ikaw lang ang kasintahan niya? Marami siyang lalaking handang tumulong sa kanya, at sa huli, iiwan ka niya. Ako naman ang may pera." "Hindi ako nagmamalasakit sa pera." Patuloy na mariin na sabi ni Adrian. "Alam kong wala itong kinalaman sa tunay na pag-ibig. Ano ba talaga ang gusto mo sa nanay ko? Ano ba ang hawak mo sa kanya?"   Si Scarlet Davenport, isang mayamang hariessa at ang tanging nabubuhay na anak na babae ng isang biyuda at mapagmahal na sa mga lalaki na si Vivian Davenport, ay nagising nang makilala si Adrian Hartfield—ang lalaking agad niyang nainlaban matapos silang magkita sa isang club—bilang posibleng bagong tatay niya. Sa unang pagkakataon sa kanyang kabataan, napagtanto niyang maaaring kailangan niyang labanan ang lahat ng mga hadlang para ipaglaban ang kanyang prinsipe kahit na mangahulugan ito ng paggamit ng mga paraan ng pang-uakit para makuha si Adrian. Kapag napansin ng mga masasamang pwersa ang mga kahinaang ito ng kanilang pamilya at magpasya itong samantalahin para sa kanilang sariling kapakinabangan, mauunawaan kaya nina Adrian at Scarlet ang kanilang pinagsama-samang lakas nang sapat na maaga? Malalampasan kaya nila ang mga pagsubok?

Scarlet blood trickled from my thigh as I clutched Arvin Owen's hand. "My belly... It hurts so much..." He shook off my hand indifferently. "Come on, I know it's chicken blood you are using. Debby just suffered abuse from her husband and is now in the hospital without anyone to care for her. Don't be so spoiled!" But what flowed from me was not chicken blood. It was my life slipping away.
