Pada hari saat Keluarga Ladi bangkrut, Jason meninggalkan sepucuk surat wasiat dan pergi sendirian ke pegunungan untuk mengakhiri hidup. Aku mengejarnya tanpa memedulikan apa pun, mencari dia di tengah hujan selama sepuluh jam penuh. Saat aku hampir putus asa, aku justru melihat sekretarisnya menyiarkan langsung lamaran Jason di media sosial. Sahabat Jason menggoda di kolom komentar, [Kamu sebentar lagi jadi pengantin pria, memangnya kamu nggak takut cewekmu di rumah marah?] Balasan Jason begitu dingin, [Aku cuma janji kasih dia posisi sebagai Nyonya Ladi, buat hal lainnya jangan pernah dia harap.] [Dia bawa dana investasi sepuluh 2 triliun buat nikah, apa rela terima perlakuan kayak gini?] Aku seakan bisa melihat Jason di balik layar ponsel mengejek sambil mengetik, [Menukar 2 triliun investasi dengan posisi Nyonya Ladi, dia pun nggak rugi.] [Kalau bukan karena dia, Zoe nggak bakal terpaksa pergi ke luar negeri. Beberapa hari terakhir ini termasuk kompensasiku untuknya.] Kukuku menancap sampai ke daging, tapi aku tetap tenang saat membakar semua barang yang berhubungan dengan dia. Pada hari pernikahan itu, dia mencariku ke mana-mana seperti orang gila. Namun, di gedung perjamuan mewah seberang jalan, aku baru saja mengenakan cincin berlian yang diberikan pria lain. Dia tidak tahu... Saat dia menghitung mundur untuk berpisah, aku juga sedang bersiap untuk menikah dengan orang lain.

Won’t you introduce me as their father?" – Zyrus Martinez Ngayon, kailangan niyang pumili. Sino sa pagitan ng lalaking minsang iniwan siya, o sa estrangherong hindi na lang basta asawa kundi ama ng kaniyang dinadala, ang kaniyang pipiliin?

Everyone said I was lucky. After the Don, Lucas Vaughn, brought me back to his estate, I became the woman he treasured most. He would halt billion-dollar deals just to be home on time to put me to sleep. He even learned sign language in secret, just so he could communicate with me after my vocal cords were damaged. At first, I didn’t dare give him my heart. Whenever he looked at me, his focus would drift. He showered me with gifts, yet always disappeared on the days that mattered most. As the child in my womb grew, and as Lucas’s devotion intensified day by day, I let my guard down. I devoted myself completely to the role of wife and Donna. Until the night I gave birth. I hemorrhaged during a difficult labor, but Lucas never showed up. After surviving by sheer luck, I finally saw the trending news. Lucas attended a Thames-side gala arm-in-arm with rising movie star, Serena Vale. That was when I understood. To him, I had only ever been a substitute. He broke his rules for her again and again. He indulged her humiliations toward me and even shoved me toward armed attackers at the brink of life and death. Filled with hatred, I closed my eyes and sank into the deep sea, just as he wished. Later, he knelt, clutching the hem of my dress, begging, "Zoe, please give me one more chance. I’ll repay you with my life." His life was worth too little now. I no longer wanted it.

“You moan the same way,” Jake whispered against her throat, his voice rough with desire. “The way your body trembles… the way your nails dig into my back. I love it. …Don’t lie to me, Chloe, I’ve had you before.” Her breath hitched, heat rushing to her cheeks as his words wrapped around her like chains. She wanted to deny it, to push him away, but the scent of his hair, clean, sharp, achingly familiar, sent shivers down her spine. Something about him was the same as that night, the night blurred by heartbreak and too much wine, the night she could barely remember but could never forget.

Au moment de l’avalanche à la station de ski, j’ai été poussée par ma cousine Camille Dufour. Mon fiancé, Antoine Lacroix, a pris ma cousine dans ses bras et s’est détourné, oubliant qu’il y avait quelqu’un comme moi enfoui au fond de la neige. Je suis restée seule au fond de la vallée pendant sept jours. Quand il m’a retrouvée, il était furieux : « Heureusement, les bras de Camille vont bien, sinon tu n’aurais qu’à mourir dans cette montagne pour te faire pardonner ! » « Le mariage dans une semaine est annulé, et il n’aura lieu que quand tu te rendras compte de ta faute. » Il s’attendait à ce que je pleure, que je me roule en boule et que je sois en désaccord. Mais je me suis contentée de hocher la tête en silence : « D’accord. » Il ne savait pas que j’avais passé un accord avec la Déesse de la Lune dans la montagne. Six jours plus tard, je lui remettrais ce que j’ai de plus précieux : mon amour et mes souvenirs d’Antoine. À partir de ce moment-là, j’oublierai tout ce qui le concerne et je recommencerai à zéro. Peu importe que je me marie ou non. La Chloé Gerard qui l’aimait est déjà morte dans la montagne enneigée.

J'avais grandi à l'étranger, et ma mère, craignant que je me marie avec un étranger, avait directement choisi à Paris un fiancé à la fois beau et brillant pour moi, me demandant de revenir pour les fiançailles. Je suis allée dans une boutique de luxe pour choisir ma robe de fiançailles, et j'avais choisi une longue robe bustier couleur crème que j'étais sur le point d'essayer. La femme à côté de moi a jeté un coup d'œil à la robe que je tenais et a dit à la vendeuse : « Cette robe a un style assez original, fais-la venir pour que je l'essaie. » La vendeuse a immédiatement pris la robe de mes mains avec brutalité. J'ai protesté avec indignation : « Tout se fait selon l'ordre d'arrivée, j'ai choisi cette robe en premier, comment vous pouvez faire comme ça ? » Mais elle m'a regardée avec mépris et a dit : « Cette robe vaut cent mille euros, une pauvre comme toi peut se la permettre ? » « Je suis la sœur de cœur d'Alex Thomas, PDG du Groupe Thomas. À Paris, la famille des Thomas fait la loi ! » Quelle coïncidence, Alex n'était-il pas justement mon fiancé ? Je l'ai immédiatement appelé : « Ta sœur de cœur m'a volé ma robe de fiançailles, que proposes-tu de faire ? »
