Second Chance: Dismantling the Penny-Pinching Mother

Second Chance: Dismantling the Penny-Pinching Mother

The new colleague at my company is a stingy mother. On her first day, she shows up with a huge pile of expired snacks that her son refused to eat and hands them out to everyone. Once we're done, she pulls out her PayPal and says, "These are all imported snacks for my son. I'll need 50 dollars from each of you." During a company team-building event, she refuses to participate, saying she has to go home to take care of her child. The day after, she comes over holding her phone and asks me for money. "I didn't eat with everyone yesterday. Since the company is footing the bill, just hand me the cash equivalent for my meal." Furious, I rejected her request immediately. What I fail to realize is that she would bear a grudge against me over it. One night, her son comes down with a high fever, so she calls me and requests a ride to the hospital using the company car. Once again, I refuse without a second thought. Because of the delay, her son suffers severe cognitive damage. She blames me for everything that happened. In a fit of rage, she ends up running me over with her car. As I open my eyes again, I find myself transported to her first day on the job.

Gold Behind the Curtain

Gold Behind the Curtain

Fresh out of college, Clara Stewart asked me to take on a $500,000 mortgage for her. When I refused, she turned around and bought an $800,000 villa in full, for another guy. Holding up the property deed, she told me: "Jayden, the truth is, I'm actually rich. I've been pretending to be poor to test you. Unfortunately, you failed. I'm disappointed in you. Let's break up." I simply smiled and walked away without a second thought. The irony? I'm the son of the richest man in the country. I was pretending to be broke, too. Fast forward four years, we met again at the National Wealth Summit. Clara had just barely made it into the top 50 on the list, clinging to the arm of Henry Brown as they entered. She spotted me in simple clothes with no visible brand, holding a child in one arm and the keys to a Porsche Cayenne in the other. Thinking I was someone's driver, she sneered: "Jayden, you really went all out just to see me again? Let's be real, you're just a driver now, and I'm on the wealth list. We live in completely different worlds. Don't waste your time fantasizing." I did not bother replying. Honestly, I was only there because my billionaire dad insisted. I had finally cleared a day to spend with my son and now I had to waste it on that.

Haley Green
Kyla Adams is a workaholic. I mean, who wouldn't be when you're working your dream job? She is one of the many writers for a startup business in North Carolina called "Clicked," where the focus is writing about hot gossip, new trends, and out of the ordinary experiences. Think of this social media app as an online magazine, where the workers are gossip hungry millennials and Gen Z'ers all trying to top one another. And the best part- Dakota Kramer; the hot young CEO at the top floor of the office building. Kyla is the job. She thrives on gossip and is a phenomenal writer, but lately her articles have been dryer than her dating life. After Dakota threatens to fire her if she doesn't step out of her comfort zone, Kyla and her friends drunkenly email Dakota an exciting new article proposal titled "EleDATE." What does the hell does this mean? Kyla must ride the elevator every morning, starting from floor 1 up to floor 50-the top floor- with a hand picked single guy from the office. The catch? She's blindfolded. She must rely on her instincts about the "bachelors" and the impressions they make during their limited time riding together- and they must remain anonymous. With over 100 employees in the building, 50 floors, and 20 single men willing to participate, this will sure make for an intriguing article and a literal make or break career moment. And let's face it... there's just something about elevators.

espero un final mejor dónde Luna sea feliz con alguien que en verdad se preocupe por ella y que se lo demuestre y no como Joshua que en su afán de proteger la humilló demasiado. él no merece a Luna ni a sus hijos...la verdad siempre es dolorosa pero mejor que las mentiras piadosas
Mildred Yaoska Abad Prado
La novela se pone buena hasta después del capitulo 1180, antes es muy repetitiva, el idiota pelele de Joshua que se deja engatusar por mujeres manipuladoras y Luna sufre y sufre, se vuelve tediosa la novela. Pero después del cap.1180 va tomando un poco de forma.

A Escolhida Do Alfa. Ilha do Corvo

VOLUME 1 TRILOGIA ILHA DO CORVO — Eu não amo você. — murmurei.

Ele disse essas palavras com total frieza e se afastou se sentando novamente e isso me enfureceu. — Por que lutar em um torneio pela minha mão então? tudo isso porque sou uma princesa? —disparei. — Você é uma princesa Lancaster e eu preciso de um herdeiro digno. — Eu desejo que meu ventre seja seco como as areias do deserto, comandante.

Em um torneio pela mão da princesa Helena Lancaster ela vê seu destino se cruzar com John Chase, um comandante e guerreiro temível, com uma personalidade peculiar ele era tudo que ela detestava, possessivo, audacioso, autoritário, e dominante ao extremo, e ele era o que mais tinha chances de ganhar o torneio por sua mão.
