A Promise We Couldn't Keep

A Promise We Couldn't Keep

My flight was suddenly canceled, so I dragged my suitcase back home. As soon as I stepped inside, I saw torn black stockings scattered on the floor. This was the eighth time Simon Jones had brought a different woman home. The sound of running water and a young woman’s laughter echoed from the bathroom. I didn’t cry or make a scene. Instead, I sat quietly on the couch, waiting for them to finish. Everyone assumed I would continue being Simon’s devoted fool like before. But no one knew that the man I truly loved had returned. After tonight, Simon, the stand-in, would be discarded.

What Was Mine Wasn't Mine

What Was Mine Wasn't Mine

To "fix" Leonard Rinehart's oh-so-tragic depression, Naomi Gaffron—yeah, the same girl who once swore she'd only ever marry me—secretly tied the knot with him. So I gave in. Played along with the family's little matchmaking stunt. Married Aurelia Spencer—Brieton City's golden girl who'd been obsessed with me since forever. For seven years, she clung to me like I was oxygen. Every night, curled up like she'd break if I moved. I thought that was happiness. Then one night, I caught her whispering to her best friend: "Leonard's already got international awards. When are you dumping Leone?" "Whatever—I'm stuck with someone I don't love anyway. Doesn't matter who I married. Someone's gotta keep an eye on Leone so he doesn't screw up everything Leonard built." I checked her study. Found a hidden folder—over 100,000 photos of Leonard. A hundred unsent love letters. Even I couldn't fake it anymore. Bought a silicone dummy. Laid out the plan. The fire would be step one. Dead or alive—we're done.

Eighty-Eight Strikes and I'm Out

Eighty-Eight Strikes and I'm Out

After our eighty-eighth canceled wedding, I called my business partner. "I'm taking the Haviana market project." There was a beat of stunned silence. "Seriously? That's ten years overseas. You just got married—well, weren't you? Does your husband even know? What about your parents? You always said staying close to them was everything." I glanced around the empty church and let out a sharp laugh. "There was no wedding. No husband. And my parents? They've got Cindy. That's all they need." Another pause. "Alright. Pack your bags. You leave tomorrow." After the call, I ran a hand down my wedding dress. One last tear slipped out, quiet and pointless. Cindy had another "episode" today. Claimed she'd off herself. Andrew canceled—again. I'd looked at him, drained. "It's the eighty-eighth time." He dropped his head, guilt all over him. "Just a little more time, Viv. She's been off since the accident. I'm scared she'll actually do it. I swear, I'll talk to her. For real this time. Then we'll get married. Promise." My parents didn't hesitate. "Vivian, let Andrew go. If Cindy hadn't gotten kidnapped trying to save you, she wouldn't have these breakdowns. Are you really putting a wedding over your sister's life?" "How could you be so selfish?" I'd heard it all before. Used to fight it. Not this time. If neither my fiancé nor my parents wanted me around, then fine. I'd leave.

The Girl He Didn't See

The Girl He Didn't See

The day she found out about the tumor, Noemi Rosales made one wild choice—she'd give her corneas to her blind husband, Daniel Gomez. Quietly. No spotlight, no drama. Too bad Daniel only cared about Ivanna Lopez. He ate up every lie she fed him and iced Noemi out like she was nothing. "I want you out of my life." Cool. Noemi could do that. "Ms. Rosales, are you certain you want Mr. Gomez listed as the cornea recipient?" "Yeah. Give them to him. Once I'm gone, the hospital can use the rest of me for science or whatever." She scrawled her signature. "Don't tell him."

L'ayant choisie, il m'appelle Maman

L'ayant choisie, il m'appelle Maman

J'ai été choisie pour être la fiancée de Lorenzo, l'héritier de la Mafia. Mais lors d'un gala familial, Lorenzo a été ouvertement courtisé par Chiara, la fille d'un marchand d'armes. Chiara n'était pas comme les autres débutantes respectueuses des règles. Elle a filé à toute allure dans les rues au volant d'une voiture de sport modifiée, a utilisé un couteau de combat de qualité militaire pour couper ses cigares et a bu le whisky le plus âpre, pur. Il y avait en elle une sauvagerie indomptée, un feu dont Lorenzo n'a pas pu détourner le regard. Il s'est plaint auprès des anciens de la famille : « Comment une femme pareille pourrait-elle être notre Madre et diriger toute cette famille ? » Ses paroles ont dégouliné de mépris pour son imprudence, et pourtant ses yeux sont restés rivés sur elle, suivant chacun de ses gestes tandis qu'elle levait son verre. Puis, le jour de l'anniversaire de Lorenzo, il a annoncé son intention de faire de Chiara sa maîtresse. Chiara a refusé : « Les femmes de ma famille sont des épouses, jamais des maîtresses. Et le cœur de mon mari doit n'appartenir qu'à moi. » Lorenzo est venu me voir, la voix hésitante. « Alessia, ce n'est qu'un titre. J'ai besoin que tu le lui cèdes. S'il te plaît ? Elle ne comprend pas les traditions de notre famille et elle a fait tout un scandale à propos de m'épouser. Il faut simplement l'apaiser pour l'instant. Même si elle m'épouse, c'est toi qui continueras à gérer les affaires de la famille. » Alors que je me tenais là à essayer ma robe de mariée, une perle de cristal acérée sur le corsage m'a percé le doigt. Une seule goutte de sang s'est épanouie sur le satin d'un blanc immaculé. La robe a été ruinée, mais le mariage a eu lieu malgré tout. Si je ne pouvais pas être l'épouse de l'héritier, je suis devenue la femme du Don.

Love Can Wait, Finals Can't

My superior, who attains his position through connections, turns out to be the high school heartthrob I once pursued—Jack Montgomery. Back then, I gave up on studying literature despite being good at it to study science instead. As a result, my grade point average dropped from 3.9 to 2.1, and I ended up attending a community college. Jack, on the other hand, earned a Master's degree in business in Ezelia. He became the director of the investment management department at a company upon his return. He mocks me for being a lovesick fool who chose to study science for his sake and now has to work for him. His words successfully provoke me into action. I work as a low-level analyst while staying up late every day to prepare for the Graduate Management Admission Test. I plan to turn my life around with this, but I end up dropping dead from overwork. When I open my eyes again, I'm back at the critical moment of course selection in my sophomore year. This time, I decisively choose to study literature and kick that scumbag, Jack, aside. "Nobody is allowed to hinder my studies!" He claims that I'm playing hard to get, and all I think is that he's ill in the head. Let's see who gets the last laugh when I make it into the prestigious Hareford University!
