Villa Daffa

In my past life, my sister's secret lover says he wants to see a meteor shower. So, she takes all the family bodyguards and drives out to the countryside to create a romantic night under the stars for him. But she doesn't realize that an old enemy she once ruined sees the opening. They break into our home, seeking revenge and planning to wipe out the entire family. My mother throws herself over me to protect me, taking the brunt of the attack. She's critically injured and is barely hanging on. I call my sister again and again, begging her to come home. She eventually returns with the bodyguards, but it's too late. The enemies are caught, but then news comes in from the outskirts—her lover has disappeared, leaving behind a suicide note. In it, he blames me, accusing me of deliberately luring my sister away so that he would suffer at the hands of her enemies. Ultimately, he takes his own life. My sister burns the letter without a flicker of emotion. She says, "Don’t overthink it." Later, the blame falls on her. Our father promises to hand the family business over to me. But after the celebration banquet, my sister murders me in the bedroom. She stares at me with a blank face and snarls, "Someone as cruel as you should've died long ago. It should've been you who died, and the family inheritance should've been mine!" I die with a heart full of rage and disbelief. When I open my eyes again, I hear our enemies breaking down the villa doors.

My bride went missing on the night of our big day but woke up in my brother's room the next day. My parents persuaded me to ignore it for the sake of fame but scolded my wife as an easy girl. Angrily, I moved out of the villa with my wife. Soon after, my wife had a miscarriage and suffered from depression due to gossip. She jumped off from the top floor in front of me. Desperately, I followed her. Opening my eyes again, I found myself back to the time when the wedding ended.

When I report at Brookley College, I'm told that Deborah Larson has already completed the enrolment. She's also moved into the villa my father bought for me. She and my fiancé have already become a renowned loving couple on campus. I feel the calluses on my fingers from years of playing the guitar. This is so creepy. If she's Deborah Larson, then who am I? And is this contemptuous man before me really my fiancé?

Je vis au fond de moi-même. Je ne suis plus qu’une infirme partie de l’être que Dieu a créé au départ. J’ai réussi dans la vie, j’ai cette villa qui ressemble plus à un palais. J’ai des enfants adorables, je suis respecté, honoré et même vénéré par mes employés. Dans cette capitale politique et administre de la côte d’Ivoire qu’est Yamoussoukro, on ne parle que de Leila KONAKRE, la grande femme d’affaire. Celle-là qui a les plus grandes entreprises non seulement de la ville mais de tout le pays. La femme orgueilleuse, arrogante, méchante, influente, oui ! Je suis devenu cette femme que tout le monde craint. Ils m’ont déjà jugé et condamné mais ne peuvent se passer de moi. La question e savoir ce qui a rendu une jeune fille pleine de vie, vivant dans une belle famille harmonieuse, avec des personnes merveilleuses, cette question ne m’a été posée que par une personne.

During a classmates' reunion party, the villa unexpectedly collapses, trapping both Priscilla Hobbs, my husband's true love, and me beneath the fallen ceiling. My husband is a member of the rescue team. To keep Priscilla alive, he chooses to lift the ceiling from her side. He says, "Pris is an actress. She can't be crippled." The ceiling crushes my legs as it's lifted from the other end. My husband seems to have forgotten that I have a congenital blood clotting disorder. Without my legs, I'll die…

On the night of my 30th birthday, I waited until the early hours of the morning, but my husband, Theodore Hawk never showed up. Instead, I came across an Instagram post from his childhood sweetheart, Emily Gallagher. [What romantic is not the starry night, it is having you by my side.] In the picture, she was wearing a delicate, sky-blue camisole that revealed just enough to charm and seduce. A man stood close behind her, his hand firmly gripping her waist. The scene was set in the seaside villa that Theodore had gifted her, their figures intimately entwined under the soft glow of the night. Someone had commented beneath the post: [I can’t stand you two being this lovey-dovey all the time! Just get married already!] Emily had responded with a shy-face emoji. I had just liked the post when Theodore, who I had failed to reach all night, blew up my phone with calls. "Are you out of your mind, Camilla? Emi and I grew up together! If we wanted to be together, we would’ve done so long ago! Why are you being so petty?" Looking at how Theodore gently held her in his arms, comforting her, I realized something. Letting go of someone you’ve loved for seven years... can take only a moment.

Senyum... kerana senyum, aku hilang orang yang aku sayang. Aku tak akan biarkan senyuman itu mekar dibibir aku lagi. Esra Elvina. Hidupnya di masa lalu menjadikan dia seorang yang dingin dan terlihat misteri. Bibirnya yang tidak pernah mengukir senyum membuatkan orang sekeliling menganggapnya manusia pelik. Dia merupakan pembantu peribadi 'segera' kepada selebriti terkenal, Erbach Arsalan. Kehadirannya di dalam Villa Edmond, telah membuatkan kehidupan lelaki itu menjadi huru-hara. Perkenalan mereka bermula dengan pergaduhan. Sikap Elvina yang tidak mudah untuk dibuli membuatkan Erbach Arsalan tercabar. Lelaki itu mencuba pelbagai cara untuk menyingkirkan Elvina, tetapi gagal. Pelbagai adegan lucu dan pergaduhan wujud ketika dia menjalankan misi untuk 'menyingkir' si gadis. Tanpa Erbach menyangka, Elvina telah mengambil berat terhadapnya walaupun dia melayan Thufaila bagaikan boneka. Sikap Elvina yang sedemikian rupa membuatkan hati Erbach terjentik perasaan bahagia. Namun, kerana ego dia hanya menafikan perasaannya. Erbach Arsalan hidup dalam suasana yang serba mewah sejak kecil. Tetapi dia merasa sunyi kerana hidup dalam suasana yang mementingkan harta berbanding kasih dan sayang. Setelah mengenali sikap sebenar Elvina, dia dapat merasakan kehangatan kasih sayang yang telah Elvina pamerkan depannya, walaupun kasih itu tidak pernah terlafaz dari bibir. "Aku selalu berjanji dengan diri aku supaya menjaga kau, selagi kau perlukan aku. Jadi, izinkan aku jadi pelindung tak bersayap kau." Erbach Arsalan terpanar. Setiap butir bicara yang terpacul dari bibir si gadis, seolah-olah membawa maksud tersirat. Janji? Kenapa dia perlu berjanji untuk menjaganya? "Kau hadir tak diundang, tiba-tiba nak jadi guardian angel untuk aku pula. Jangan susahkan hidup kau untuk aku!" "I know who are you, and i still remember the first day I meet you." Siapa dia yang sebenarnya? kenapa dia hadir bagai suatu misteri?

Carmen Wade thought she had it all—a perfect job, a loyal best friend, and a husband she adored. Everything was perfect! But her world shatters the night she discovers her husband's ultimate betrayal with her best friend, Millie. Fearing Carmen will expose their affair, the two decide to kill her, forcing her into an oncoming truck. She bleeds to death. But when Carmen opens her eyes, she’s no longer in her own world. She’s been reborn as Lady Daphne Vasquez—The infamous villainess from her favorite fantasy novel, destined to meet a brutal end in the hands of her fiancé. Determined to change her fate, Carmen (now Daphne) shocks the kingdom by first calling off her engagement with Lord Michael Ruiz, who bears an uncanny resemblance to her treacherous husband, Cody Wade. Her actions draw the attention of King Rafe Crowe, a powerful ruler from a neighboring land who becomes suspicious of Daphne’s sudden transformation. As Carmen navigates a world of greedy nobles and magic, she must use her knowledge of the story’s end to outsmart those who would see her fall, including her former fiancé and the heroine of the novel—who eerily mirrors Millie. But her greatest challenge may be resisting the charm of King Rafe, whose keen eyes seem to see right through her facade and changing the narrative of the story she once knew it’s end. In a world where allies and enemies blend together, Carmen’s second chance at life becomes a high-stakes game of survival, vengeance, unexpected romance and avoiding a dark prophecy.

I secretly invite my in-laws over for the New Year, hoping to surprise my husband, Huxley Carlson. But the moment my father-in-law steps through the door, Huxley's secretary shoves him out. He slams into the shoe cabinet, throwing out his back. She sneers. "Who do you beggars think you are, strolling into Mr. Carlson's villa like this? You're this broke and still have the nerve to call yourself his father-in-law?" I immediately call for the housekeeper to help him, but the secretary blocks her. She even shoves my mother-in-law. "You really think you're the lady of the house?" she snaps. "Mr. Carlson hired the housekeeper to serve him, not to waste time on you or your useless parents." My mother-in-law is so enraged that she suffers a heart attack on the spot. I call Huxley in a panic, begging him to come to the hospital. But he sounds utterly unmoved. His voice is cold and mocking as he says, "Jen told me what happened. The nerve of you, bringing your parents to my house! Now you want me to rush to the hospital because your mom's pretending to be sick? "Tell them to get out! If she dies, she dies. Hell, maybe it's a blessing—just in time for the New Year!"

Dans la villa déserte, Sophie Jonathan était assise sur le canapé, immobile. Ce n’est qu’après un long moment que la porte d’entrée s’est ouverte et que Théo Réaumur a fait son apparition. Son regard s’est attardé un instant sur elle avant que son visage ne s’assombrisse instantanément. « Aujourd’hui, Camille a de la fièvre. Pourquoi m’as-tu appelé autant de fois ? »
