Unexpected knot:my husband ls a tycoon

Alicia was once a woman who lived in the shadows—overweight, insecure, and hopelessly in love with Ford Collins, the cold and calculating billionaire who viewed her as nothing more than an obligation. Their marriage was a cruel twist of fate: a one-night mistake, a pregnancy, and a contract to protect Ford’s pristine reputation. For Ford, Alicia’s soft heart and imperfect body were a constant source of disdain. He mocked her, belittled her, and made it clear that she would never be enough—not for him, not for anyone. When Ford finally walked away to reunite with his glamorous ex-fiancée, Alicia was left broken and humiliated, carrying the scars of his rejection. But heartbreak has a way of transforming people. Years later, Alicia returns—not the shy, overweight girl Ford once dismissed, but a confident single mom and stunning woman with a sharp tongue and a steely resolve. Now, it’s Ford who’s haunted by regret, unable to ignore the woman he let slip through his fingers. Can Ford prove he’s a changed man and win back the wife he never deserved? Or will Alicia’s newfound strength and desire for revenge keep him at arm’s length? What happens when the man who destroyed her heart becomes the one begging for it?

“Kayleigh, you will either take your pants off, or I’ll do it!” Alexander Hearst warned her. If her thighs were not swelling and in pain, this could probably lead to something else because the way he said it turned her on. “Then do it.” She could not take her joke back because he had already opened the button and pulled down the zipper of her pants. Carefully, he took her pants off, and she could hear him gasp as he carefully touched the red skin. He jolted when she yelped in pain. “What’s this, Kayleigh?” His voice was low and angry. She wished to tell him she was lucky her father did not hang her on the wall to punish her for getting married without telling them. It was an accidental marriage, only for convenience, but who would have thought she would be married to the stranger she met at the elevator, the gorgeous, sexually attractive, and the luscious man she had ever met.

Not just as a husband, but as a billionaire with dangerous secrets. And the people who tried to kill him? They’re still out there.

"Magkano ang kailangan mo, upang layuan ang anak ko?" tanong ni donya Marsha kay Estella, "hindi kita maaaring tanggapin dahil isa ka lamang dukha! saan ka ba napulot ni Ludwig? sa club? At sinong nakakaalam, kung yang dinadala mo, ay sa anak ko?" Isang sampal iyon para kay Estella. Ang inaasahan niyang maayos na pagtanggap sa kanya, ay magiging isa palang bangungot! Ang akala niya, matapos niyang matakasan ang matandang ipinagkakasundo sa kanya ng kanyang ama, ay magiging maayos na ang buhay niya, hindi pa pala. Kaharap niya ngayon ang isang repleksiyon ng matapobre niyang madrasta. Kuyom ang kamao, nilisan niya ang lugar na iyon, upang hindi na maalipusta pa, ng kahit na sino, sa pamilya ni Ludwig, dala dala ang anak nilang kambal, na hindi pa man naiisilang, ay itinakwil na. "Ako ang bahala sa inyo mga anak. Hindi ko hahayaang may mang-api pa sa inyo, gaya ng naranasan ko," kinakausap niya ang mga bata sa kanyang tiyan. "Babangon ako, at maniningil!" Tiningnan niyang muli ang mansiyon, sa huling pagkakataon. Hinulma niya sa isipan ang sinabi sa kanya ng kanyang biyenan. Saka hilam ng luha ang mga matang lumayo, na hindi alam kung saan tutungo.

"I'll stop running away, Jago! Promise, hindi na ako tatakas!" Pagmamakaawa ko sa asawa or soon-to-be ex-husband ko kapag nakatakas ako rito. Pinilit kong makatayo sa pagkakahiga pero hindi ko kaya dahil nakagapos ang kamay ko sa headboard. "You already told me that earlier and yet, you still tried to run away from me... Hindi na gagana sa'kin 'yan..." Madilim ang ekspresyong sagot nito. Lumapit ito kaya naman napapikit ako. Naramdaman ko ang pagsikip ng tali sa kamay ko kaya napadilat ako. "Promise, totoo na talaga 'to! Tanggalin mo na yung tali, please? Natatakot na ako sa'yo!" Kinakabahang usal ko kay Jago pero hindi ito sumagot. Pumatong ito sa'kin at malambing na sinapo ang mukha ko. Impit akong napaung*l nang marahan nitong halikan ang aking leeg. Alam nito kung paano ako kunin dahil kaagad nanghina ang katawan ko sa ginawa nito. "Uhm, Jago! Please!" Hiyaw ko sa pangalan nito nang magsimulang maglandas ang kamay nito sa katawan ko. "I'll make you love me again. You're mine, Isla. You're only f*cking mine..." *********** Matapos ang pagtatalo ng mag-asawang sina Jago River Laxamana at Allona Isla Avellino ay inihagis ni Isla ang wedding ring niya kay Jago upang mapagtanto nitong seryoso siya sa kagustuhan niyang makipaghiwalay. Matapos gawin iyon ay nanakbo ito paalis sa bahay nilang mag-asawa. Nasa bingit na talaga sila ng hiwalayan dahil sa pagkawala ng sana'y panganay nilang anak. Walang araw na hindi nagbabangayan ang mga ito kaya hindi maayos ang kanilang relasyon. Kinidnap ni Jago si Isla. Nang magising ito ay mahimbing ang pagkakatulog ni Jago sa tabi niya. Napagtanto nitong nasa island sila kaya nagpatuloy ang bangayan nila at nagtangkang tumakas si Isla mula kay Jago. Makakatakas kaya si Isla sa asawa niyang si Jago? O magtatagumpay itong muling kuhanin ang kaniyang puso at angkinin siya?
