Zoey 101 Erin Sanders

I was pinned against the wall, his handsome face getting closer and closer to me. I focused my attention on his grey eyes, which were cold and menacing. I gasped when he tightened his grip on my hands above my head. His intimidating demeanor was undoubtedly frightening. But I was not ready to give in. I squirmed and grunted out, “Let me go.” “You are not allowed to tell me what I should do,” he hissed dangerously. “I do as I please,” he hissed threateningly. "And this... you and I. I'll decide whether or not to leave you." ----------------- Molly Sanders, an ambitious and independent woman, had been in love with Lance since she was a child. She had always wanted to be his wife, but Lance had never shown any interest in her.

Everything began to fall apart when she realized he only had one woman in his heart. She was devastated and sought a divorce. When they finally parted ways, Lance approached her and asked her to return to him. Molly, who was already tired of his arrogance and domineering attitude, didn’t want to keep in touch with him. But how could she ignore him when he was so determined to reclaim her? Could Molly ever forgive him for his past actions and take him back? Or will they stay apart forever?

" He stops mid rant as the band starts playing a cover of satellite by Nickelback, and I close my eye swaying to the opening notes. "Chilli?" Suddenly, Elias is back up on his feet, holding out his hand. "Hu?" Bewildered as I look up at him, "May I have this dance?" I look at Erin, who pulls a silly face and shrugs. "Umm," hesitant to his offer. "Come on, I know you like this song. Let's show them how it's done. Plus, it'll be nice not to have my feet stepped on at least once tonight. " he winks at me with a cheeky grin. His not wrong, I do love this song, and part of our training was learning all forms of ballroom dances. Taking a deep breath, I take his hand and let him lead me to the middle of the dance floor. I put my hand on his shoulder as his goes to my waist, which sent a spark through my nerves. Hu, weird, must be the rum and coke. We young wolves aren't allowed to drink much.

Alexander Schmidt war betrunken und rief immer wieder den Namen seiner unerreichbaren Liebe. Am nächsten Morgen wachte er auf und erinnerte sich an nichts. Er forderte Theresa Meier auf: „Finde die Frau von letzter Nacht!“ ... Theresa war schließlich verzweifelt und reichte Alexander die Scheidungspapiere ein. Als Grund gab sie an: „Die Frau wünscht sich Kinder, aber die Ehe ist wegen der Unfruchtbarkeit des Ehemanns gescheitert.“ Alexander, der nichts von alldem wusste, wurde wütend, als er die Nachricht erhielt. Er ließ Theresa zurückholen, um ihr zu beweisen, dass er sehr wohl zeugungsfähig war. Eines Abends, als Theresa von der Arbeit nach Hause kam, wurde sie plötzlich im Treppenhaus in eine Ecke gedrängt: „Wer hat dir erlaubt, ohne meine Zustimmung die Scheidung einzureichen?“ Theresa antwortete: „Du bist unfruchtbar, und ich soll keinen anderen Mann suchen dürfen?“ In dieser Nacht wollte Alexander Theresa zeigen, ob er tatsächlich zeugungsfähig war. Doch als Theresa einen Schwangerschaftsbericht aus ihrer Tasche zog, wurde Alexander wütend und fragte: „Wessen Kind ist das?“ Alexander suchte überall nach dem Vater des Kindes. Er schwor, den Mann, der Theresa schwanger gemacht hatte, umzubringen! Doch zu seiner Überraschung stellte sich heraus, dass er derjenige war...

Le jour où je devais essayer des robes de mariée avec Charles Jaspier, le chef de la mafia que j'avais aimé pendant sept ans, je suis entrée avec le plus grand espoir dans la boutique en tenant un rapport de test de grossesse. Mais j'ai entendu par hasard une conversation qui a tout brisé. « L'enregistrement du mariage avec Ellis Olsen n'était qu'une mesure temporaire, » a-t-il déclaré calmement à son plus proche confident. « Mon frère est mort dans une fusillade. Elle était enceinte du seul héritier de la famille Jaspier. Sans statut légal, ni elle ni l'enfant y survivraient. » « Tout le monde les maltraiterait. » Un cigare entre les doigts, sa voix était froide, teintée d'impuissance. « Zoey Qandor ne peut pas posséder de statut légal - mais je peux lui donner tout le reste. Mon amour. Mon argent. Elle ne doit jamais l'apprendre. » J'ai saisi le rapport de teste de grossesse avec le cœur mort. Ma meilleure amie m'a aidée à créer une nouvelle identité pour que Charles ne me retrouve jamais et que je puisse disparaître de son monde. S'il ne pouvait pas offrir à mon enfant et à moi une famille complète, alors il valait mieux rompre net cet amour bâti sur la responsabilité et les mensonges, une fois pour toutes.

El día en que se suponía que iba a probarme vestidos de novia con Charles Jaspier, el líder de la mafia al que había amado durante siete años, entré en la boutique con el informe de una prueba de embarazo, con el corazón lleno de esperanza. En cambio, escuché una conversación que lo destrozó todo. —Registrar el matrimonio con Ellis Olsen fue una medida temporal —le dijo él con calma a su confidente más cercano—. Mi hermano murió en un tiroteo. Ella lleva al único heredero de la familia Jaspier. Sin un estatus legal, ni ella ni el niño sobrevivirían en esta familia. Todos los acosarían. Un puro reposaba entre sus dedos. Su voz era fría, con un matiz de resignación. —Zoey Qandor no puede tener un título, pero yo puedo darle todo lo demás. Mi amor. Mi dinero. Sin embargo, esto nunca debe llegar a sus oídos. Apreté el informe de embarazo, con el corazón hecho cenizas. Con la ayuda de mi mejor amiga, creé una nueva identidad —una que garantizaba que Charles nunca me encontraría— y desaparecí de su mundo. Si no podía darme a mí y a mi hijo una familia completa, entonces era mejor cortar este amor, cimentado sobre las responsabilidades y las mentiras, de una vez por todas.

My boss had a new boyfriend called Eugene Larson. The first day he came to the office, he put on a great show of exerting his dominance. He deleted my number from my boss's phone right in front of me. Eugene waved his phone in front of me while playing innocently. "You can talk to me about anything you need to communicate to Tina, Mr. Sanders. I'll help you pass the message to her. I don't have much sense of security, so please don't mind this. It's to avoid any misunderstanding between us." I was hoping my boss, Tina Kayden, would be able to say something fair on my behalf, but all she did was stare at Eugene approvingly and adoringly throughout the conversation. She turned to me and said, "This is a pretty good plan, Mr. Sanders. Do take good care of Eugene from now on." As there was no way for me to reject her, I was forced to add Eugene's contact to my phone. However, the moment he had my number, he flooded my phone with messages. [Mr. Sanders, is the client you're meeting tomorrow with the surname Charleston a man or a woman?] [Where are you having the meeting tomorrow? Wear something casual tomorrow. It would be best if you avoid washing your face and hair. Otherwise, I would think you're trying to seduce my wife.] [I believe your relationship with Tina is innocent. You're not allowed to betray me because I'm treating you like my buddy!] [By the way, you have an extra duty from now on. You need to remind Tina every 30 minutes to send me a message telling me that she loves me.] As I read these ridiculous messages, I laughed in anger. I put my phone on silent mode and flung it to the side before going to bed. The next morning, I woke up to dozens of missed calls on my phone.

My cousin, Sonia Sanders, only trusts OmniGo Maps, or OmniGo, for everything. While waiting for the bus during a trip, the bus that we are supposed to get on pulls into the station. However, Sonia grabs my arm and says, "Amanda, OmniGo says that our bus is only arriving in another ten minutes. This is not our bus!" I watch helplessly as the bus pulls out of the station, ultimately making me miss my flight and forcing me to pay double the price for another ticket back home. Once, after work, Sonia sees the green arrow on OmniGo and floors the gas pedal at a road intersection. She says confidently, "OmniGo says it's supposed to be a green light! That means this traffic light is wrong!" I look at the red light in horror. Before I can stop her, a vehicle driving ordinarily past the intersection crashes right into our car. In the end, my legs have to be amputated, and I become wheelchair-bound, while Sonia only suffers a mild concussion and a fracture. One rainy day, Sonia calls me an Uber to go to my follow-up at the hospital, but she sets the pickup point at a location that is flooded a third of a mile away. I try to change the pickup point to my home, but she snatches my phone away and says, "OmniGo says that this pickup point is highly recommended for disabled people to board. You can't just change the pickup point as you like!" As a result, I fall into a puddle, wheelchair and all. Sonia doesn't even turn back to look at me and leaves me behind. Because of the rain and the prolonged soaking of my wounds in the dirty puddle, I develop a severe infection, which then leads to multiple organ failure. Despite being rushed to the emergency unit afterward, I ultimately die from the infection. When I open my eyes again, I realize that I'm standing at the bus station again. Sonia taps on her phone and leans closer to me, showing me the details on her phone. "Look, Amanda, OmniGo says that our bus isn't arriving for another ten more minutes."
