The Substitute Wife Book

Para kay Dhalia Augustine Madrigal, ang buhay ay isang serye ng pagsubok—lalo na nang tanggapin niya ang trabahong maging sekretarya ng malupit at istriktong bilyonaryo, si Henri Yanno Garciaz. Habang lahat ng naunang sekretarya ay hindi nagtagal, siya lang ang nagtiis at nakasabay sa ugali nito. Ngunit hindi niya inasahan na ang trabahong ito ang magdadala sa kanya sa isang alok na magpapabago sa kanyang buhay. Isang kasal kapalit ng sampung milyong piso. Para kay Henri, si Dhalia ang perpektong sagot upang makaiwas sa isang sapilitang kasal sa kanyang unang pag-ibig. Ngunit sa kabila ng kasunduang iyon, hindi niya maitanggi ang lumalalim niyang damdamin para sa babaeng laging naroon para sa kanya. Unti-unting nagbago ang kanilang relasyon, at sa kabila ng mga pagsubok, natagpuan nila ang tunay na kaligayahan sa isa’t isa. Ngunit sa isang iglap, nagbago ang lahat. Isang rebelasyong nag-ugat sa nakaraan ang gumulo sa buhay ni Dhalia—isa pala siyang Lim, kapatid ng dating minahal ni Henri. At ang mas matinding dagok, isang larawan ang sumira sa kanilang tiwala—isang larawan na nagpatunay na may ibang babae si Henri. Sa gitna ng sakit at kahihiyan, pinili niyang lumayo, dala ang lihim na siya rin ay nagdadalang-tao. Limang taon ang lumipas, at sa kabila ng pagtatago ni Dhalia, hindi siya tinantanan ng lalaking minsan niyang minahal. Ngayon, muling bumalik si Henri sa buhay niya, handang patunayan ang isang bagay—na sa kabila ng lahat, si Dhalia lang ang babaeng nais niyang makasama habambuhay. Ngunit sapat ba ang pagmamahal upang paghilumin ang sugat ng nakaraan?

Anais Vale vanished three years ago, breaking the terms of a legally binding marriage contract with billionaire CEO Cassian Vale. To the world, their short-lived marriage was a mystery. To Anais, it was survival. But when a mysterious legal summons pulls her out of hiding, she’s forced to return—not as a woman in love, but as a wife under obligation. Cassian, ruthless and unreadable, never divorced her. Their original contract still holds, and now he wants her back—if only to fulfill the remaining years and protect his corporate empire from a hostile takeover. Emotion is not part of the deal. But the contract hides more than just legal conditions. It conceals a past filled with betrayal, a family legacy steeped in secrets, and a shared history neither of them fully understands. Anais returns as a woman determined to endure it quietly. But things change quickly: she discovers Cassian’s health is failing, that someone wants her dead, and that her own tragic past may be connected to his family’s crimes. As the truth unravels, Anais is forced to confront who Cassian really is—and who she must become if she wants to survive in his world. Along the way, both begin to transform. Anais, once passive and self-effacing, begins to find her voice and strength. Cassian, seemingly heartless and stoic, is forced to feel and face the consequences of his past. Their story is a collision of control and vulnerability, love and guilt, power and protection. What begins as a contract slowly becomes a reckoning—and a second chance neither of them expected. But second chances come at a cost. And not every ending is fair.
