"Setiap kali kamu bilang 'tidak', tubuhmu justru bergetar bilang 'iya'. Jangan bohongi aku, Renxia. Aku bisa rasakan detaknya di kulitmu …" Renxia menggigit bibir bawahnya, suaranya gemetar campuran marah dan terhanyut oleh hembusan napas Andre di telinganya. "Aku … aku nggak boleh … ini salah, Andre … tapi kenapa … kenapa sentuhanmu selalu bikin aku lemah …" Renxia merasakan sentuhan jemari itu di sepanjang lengannya, napas panas lelaki muda itu seakan membakar telinganya. Renxia tidak pernah bermimpi menikah dengan seorang dosen terhormat sekaligus pria dewasa yang terlalu sempurna dan … terlalu sibuk. Pernikahan mereka adalah hasil perjodohan yang dijalani dengan dingin, tanpa gairah, dan tanpa sentuhan. Tapi semua berubah ketika Andre masuk dalam kehidupan rumah tangga mereka. Andre, adik ipar Renxia yang muda, liar, dan tak tahu sopan santun. Lelaki itu masuk ke rumah mereka seperti badai, menantang batas, dan menyentuh luka-luka dalam jiwa Renxia yang bahkan tak pernah diakui keberadaannya. Satu tatapan. Satu sentuhan. Satu kalimat sarkastik dari mulut Andre cukup untuk mengacak-acak seluruh pertahanan Renxia. Saat kesepian makin tajam dan suaminya terus menghilang tanpa kabar, Renxia terjebak dalam permainan berbahaya antara menjadi istri yang setia … atau wanita yang jatuh ke dalam pelukan dosa.

Our Black Friday sales broke ten million. I allocated a budget of $100,000 and told my deputy to organize a celebration dinner for the team. However, after the party ended, everyone in the team looked at me in disdain. I only realized the reason when I heard their complaints in the break room one day. “Ms. Heaton is such a cheapskate. We made ten million in sales, and she treated us with a $3.99 budget takeout for the celebration.” “Seriously, I heard from Ms. Reiser that Ms. Heaton kept the money for herself! She just didn’t want to spend it on us.” My assistant even showed me a post circulating online, accusing me of exploiting employees and lining my own pockets. I summoned my deputy manager, Casey Reiser, to my office. She fell to her knees in tears and confessed everything. “I’m so sorry, Ms. Heaton! My daughter needed emergency heart surgery. In a moment of weakness, I misused the funds!” However, I had clearly seen her daughter sign up for a dance class just yesterday! Since everyone was so quick to judge without knowing the truth, I would retract the team’s monthly budget of one million then!

My husband, Ethan Parker, brought our daughter on a trip to the countryside with his first love, Mandy Sanchez. Halfway through, he abandoned our little girl and left with Mandy.

As I was dealing with my grief, Ethan finally answered his phone. "We're celebrating Thanksgiving. Why are you ruining the mood?" I internally scoffed at that man's audacity. Well, happy holidays indeed! Let me deliver a bloody pumpkin pie for you to really get into the spirit.

Con tal de salir con su asistente en Navidad, mi esposo puso somníferos en la leche en polvo de nuestra hija.

Tres meses después de que mi esposo, Josiah Erikson, desapareciera en un accidente de esquí, lo vi en un bar. Él reía a carcajada limpia, con un brazo envuelto naturalmente alrededor de los hombros de su «mejor amiga», Mónica Jones. —Menos mal que se les ocurrió esta idea. Casi había olvidado cómo se siente la libertad. Uno tras otro, sus amigos chocan sus copas con él y le preguntan cuándo planea reaparecer. Bajó la mirada y lo pensó antes de decir: —En una semana. Apareceré cuando ella se haya vuelto completamente loca buscándome. De pie entre las sombras, lo vi saborear su libertad, y entonces llamé a mi amiga que trabaja en la oficina estatal de registros civiles.
