Tras 99 Perdones

Selama tiga tahun pernikahan, Claire Nolan merawat Julian Westwood yang mengalami kelumpuhan pada kedua kakinya dengan cermat. Namun, Julian justru sangat membencinya. Hanya karena Claire menyentuh kakinya, dia langsung mengusir Claire keluar rumah, bahkan menguncinya di luar selama 99 hari. Ironisnya, pada hari ketika Julian akhirnya pulih dan bisa berdiri lagi, hal pertama yang dia lakukan adalah pergi ke bandara untuk menjemput kekasih pertamanya. Bertahun-tahun pengorbanan dan kasih sayang Claire tetap tidak bisa menandingi sang cinta sejati di hati Julian. Sambil menahan rasa sakit di dada, Claire akhirnya menelepon seseorang, "Kontrak sudah selesai. Aku ingin bercerai darinya." Namun setelah Claire pergi, barulah Julian menyesal.

Menjalin cinta selama tujuh tahun, pacarku yang seorang CEO sudah 99 kali membatalkan rencana untuk buat akta nikah denganku. Pertama kali, ketika asisten perempuan barunya terkunci di kantor, dia segera bergegas kembali dan meninggalkan diriku di depan kantor catatan sipil sampai tengah malam. Kelima kali, saat kami sedang berfoto bersama, dia mendengar asistennya diganggu oleh klien dan kembali untuk menolongnya, meninggalkan aku menjadi bahan ejekan orang lain. Sejak itu, setiap kali kami hendak membuat akta nikah, selalu ada kesulitan yang menimpa asistennya. Akhirnya aku benar-benar putus asa, dan memilih untuk pergi. Setelah aku pindah dari Kota Niros, dia malah dengan terobsesinya mencariku selama lima tahun.

For three years of marriage, Jeanette Schafer had devoted herself completely to caring for Skyler Weisberg, who was confined to a wheelchair. Yet, Skyler harbored nothing but contempt for her. He hated her touch so much that the last time she accidentally brushed against his legs, he locked her out of their home for 99 days. The day finally came when Skyler's legs had healed enough for him to stand again. Yet, the first thing he did was to drive straight to the airport to pick up his first love. Years of selfless devotion and tender care meant nothing compared to his 'the one that got away'. Swallowing the heartbreak, Jeanette made a call. She whispered, "The contract is fulfilled. I'm filing for divorce." Only after she walked away did Skyler realize what he had lost. But by then, it was already too late.

In our five years of marriage, my husband, Derrick Wickham, bails on me 99 times for his childhood sweetheart, Jessica Harson. This time, after he stands me up, I find two plane tickets to Frantines in his office. "I was planning to surprise you for our anniversary. Since you've already seen them, we'll just meet at the airport," he says icily. I eagerly pack and get myself ready, arriving early at the airport. I wait from the wee hours of dawn till the late hours of night, but Derrick fails to show up. Then, I see a post on Jessica's social media. "It's my birthday today. Though he doesn't have the time to go on a trip with me to Frantines, I forgive him because he brought me to the amusement park instead!" In the past, I'd have called him, crying and demanding answers. But this time, I'm truly done.

Seseorang bisa sekaya apa? Suamiku sangat kaya, orang-orang menjulukinya Bayang Kota, karena hampir separuh properti di Kota Bara adalah miliknya. Selama lima tahun menikah, setiap dia pergi menemani cinta pertamanya, dia akan memberikan sebuah rumah padaku. Setelah aku memiliki 99 rumah, suamiku menyadari bahwa aku berubah. Aku tidak menangis dan mengeluh, bahkan tidak memohon padanya untuk menemaniku. Aku memilih sebuah vila terbaik di Kota Bara, lalu menyiapkan surat pengalihan properti dan memintanya untuk menandatangani surat itu. Setelah menandatangani surat pengalihan properti, suamiku mencoba untuk menghiburku. "Tunggu aku pulang, aku akan membawamu pergi melihat kembang api." Aku menyimpan surat itu dengan tenang sambil mengiakan. Namun, aku tidak memberitahunya bahwa surat yang ditandatangani kali ini adalah surat perceraian kami.

Even on my hundredth proposal, Isabelle Cole still turns me down. We've been together for seven years. For the previous 99 proposals, she said her childhood friend isn't married yet, and she can't bring herself to break the promise they've made. Staring at the ring in my hand, I finally can't hold it in anymore. "If Ronald never gets married, are you going to keep him company forever? What am I to you?" Isabelle's expression turns gloomy in an instant. She snatches the ring and throws it into the river. "Ron and I made a promise when we were kids that we'd get married at the same time. How can I just abandon him? "And besides, is that piece of paper really all that important, Lucas? We've been together for seven years. What difference would it even make?"

We had been together for seven years, yet my CEO boyfriend canceled our marriage registration 99 times. The first time, his newly hired assistant got locked in the office. He rushed back to deal with it, leaving me standing outside the County Clerk's Office until midnight. The fifth time, we were about to sign when he heard his assistant had been harassed by a client. He left me there and ran off to "rescue" her, while I was left behind, humiliated and laughed at by others. After that, no matter when we scheduled our registration, there was always some emergency with his assistant that needed him more. Eventually, I gave up completely and chose to leave. However, after I moved away from Twilight City, he spent the next five years desperately searching for me, like a man who had finally lost his mind.

How rich can a person be? My wife is incredibly rich. People call her "The Queen of Cloudridge" because nearly half the city's properties are owned by her. We've been married for five years, and every time she goes out to meet her first love, she transfers a property to my name. By the time I have 99 homes in my name, she suddenly notices that something has changed. I no longer cry, beg, or ask her to stay. I simply choose the finest mansion in all of Cloudridge, bring the property deed with me, and wait for her to sign it. She signs the papers, and for the first time, she softens. "When I get back, let's go watch the fireworks together." I quietly tuck the agreement away and hum in response. But I never tell her what she's really signed this time. It's not a property deed. It's our divorce agreement.

My husband, Damien Falcone, had 99 lovers. And I was the mafia princess men lined up to die for. The day we got together, everyone in our world took bets. They said we wouldn't last three months. But then , everything changed. For me, he wiped his phone clean, built a rose manor, and got down on one knee. Then, on our wedding night, he told me he wanted an open marriage. "Our bodies can play," he said. "But our loyalty? That's just for us." I agreed. Then came his 100th lover, Sophia Ricci. She betrayed our family in an arms deal. Almost got my father killed. But Damien protected her. He even moved her into our home. So, I did what any heartbroken mafia princess would do. I got drunk and woke up in another man's bed. I just didn't know that man was Damien's uncle.

In my last international car racing championship, the front tire of my car suddenly burst, causing the car to roll over. The cars behind me collided with me one by one. After 99 times, I was unrecognizable from the impacts. Just as I reached out to my boyfriend for help by instinct, he kicked me away, my body covered in blood and flesh. “Don't dirty my newly tailored clothes today.” He turned around, picked up the champion who had just crossed the finish line, and spun her around, smiling and saying: “Sharon, only the championship trophy is worthy of you. I will remove all obstacles for you.” Blood stained my entire body. Watching the two of them embrace as the sun set, I felt numb and desperate. What he didn't know was that among these red stains was the child who had just come into this world. At that moment, I gave up on continuing to love him.
