มือเทพนิ้วทองของอดีตแม่เลี้ยงยุค 80

陸遠真（りく とうま）に囲われていた女は失踪癖があった。 そのうえ見つかるたびに彼女は、如月清夏（きさらぎ さやか）の仕業だというのだった。 西村乃愛（にしむら のあ）が九度目の失踪を遂げた時、遠真は清夏をサウナルームに閉じ込めた。 室内の温度は容赦なく上昇していく。 60℃...... 70℃...... 80℃...... 清夏の顔は真っ赤に染まり、蒸し焼きのように息ができない。 その様子を前にしても、遠真は指に嵌めた指輪を弄びながら低く問い詰めた。 「これが最後のチャンスだ。乃愛をどこに隠した？」

Naomi, seorang gadis sederhana, cantik dan pintar sedang mempersiapkan penikahannya dengan Fahri, pria yang ia cintai dengan sepenuh hati, harus menghadapi kenyataan pahit yang tak pernah ia duga. Semua berawal dari ulah Zakia, ibu tirinya yang licik dan penuh iri hati. Zakia menjebak Fahri saat bertemu dengannya di sebuah restoran dekat hotel tempat Fahri dinas, dengan cara memberikan obat pada minuman Fahri. Disaat mereka berdua berbincang di restoran itu, hingga Fahri tak bisa menguasai kesadarannya saat itu. Merasa terjebak dalam skandal itu dan demi bertanggung jawab pada anak yang sedang di kandung Zakia, Fahri terpaksa menikahinya. Hati Naomi hancur berkeping-keping, sekaligus menahan malu karena persiapan pernikahannya itu sudah 80%. Jika kabar ini datang sebelum Naomi mempersiapkan semuanya, walau hati Naomi sakit setidaknya dia tak menanggung malu juga. Tetapi semua itu berganti dengan kebahagiaan, saat tak sengaja Naomi menabrak Alto Verdatoro seorang ceo perusahaan yang mencintainya. Walau Alto seorang yang dingin tapi cintanya begitu nyata dengan sikapnya pada Naomi. Melihat kebahagiaan Naomi, Zakia merasa iri dan berniat merebut Alto dari Naomi. Tapi semua itu sia-sia, karena Alto bukanlah pria gampangan seperti apa yang Zakia bayangkan. Hingga Fahri datang kembali pada kehidupan Naomi, meminta kesempatan kedua pada Naomi yang jelas sekarang telah bahagia bersama Alto.

Saat kabar kematian suami asuh itu datang, aku tidak menangis dan tidak buat keributan. Aku justru segera menarik kembali saham miliknya dan mengurus surat kematian. Aku melakukan semua itu karena aku telah terlahir kembali. Di kehidupan sebelumnya, ayah khawatirkan aku, putri keluarga terkaya akan menderita setelah menikah. Sehingga beliau memilihkan tiga orang suami asuh, lelaki yang sejak kecil dibesarkan untuk menjadi pendampingku. Dari ketiganya, aku memilih Kevin yang paling menonjol untuk jadi suamiku, tetapi baru tiga hari setelah pernikahan, dia tiba-tiba meninggal mendadak. Dalam kesedihan, atas bujukan dua orang lainnya, aku memadamkan niat untuk menikah lagi dan menjalani hidup sebagai janda hingga akhir hayat. Namun, pada usia 80 tahun, ketika aku kembali ke Provens, tempat kenangan cinta kami, aku justru melihat Kevin yang telah mati 60 tahun lalu. Dia hidup bersama pengasuhku yang dulu menghilang, dikelilingi anak dan cucu dan menikmati kehidupan yang begitu bahagia. Aku menyadari telah ditipu seumur hidupku. Amarah membuat pandanganku menggelap, lalu aku meninggal akibat pendarahan otak. Ketika kembali membuka mata, aku mendapati diriku telah kembali ke hari saat kabar kematiannya pertama kali datang. Aku ingin melihat sendiri bagaimana seorang mayat tanpa nama dan identitas bisa terus hidup.

내 남편은 키가 크고 잘생겼지만 빚을 갚을 돈이 없었다. 결혼한 지 5년 차에 나는 그를 위해 집도 팔고 차도 팔았다. 우리는 어둡고 습한 10평짜리 지하실에 비집고 살았다. 내가 임신했을 때 진찰을 받고 싶다고 했더니 그는 돈을 낭비할 필요가 없다고 했다. 그래서 우리는 선천적으로 심장병이 있는 아기를 낳았다. 수술비를 충당하기 위해 나는 하루에 아르바이트를 세 개씩 했는데 그러던 중 남편이 인플루언서에게 80억짜리 단독주택을 사준 것을 알게 되었고, 남편이 고아가 아니라 갑부의 아들이라는 것을 알게 됐다.

This is the story of the most powerful magical creature, Alexander's. Alexander has set himself on a mission to find his father's twin brother Arthur who cruelly killed his whole family along with his lover to become the most powerful warlock. Alexander is finding the 18 mythical relics of Goddess so he could revive his dead lover Daniel and his both elder siblings. His overly possessive elder brother Aadam and his overly protective and caring, mother hen sister Aleena. Trying to find the secret of Arthur's death which only his parents and elder siblings knew he stumbled upon a growling mutt who was claiming him to be his mate. A mate which Alexander never wanted & ran off at the sight of when he encountered one. He never believed in mates, as in the world of witches they choose their life partner themselves. The overly protective, hell possessive Alpha of all the alphas Damian who wants nothing but his mate only. Who has been waiting for his mate impatiently from the past 80 years since the moment he turned 18. Alexander tried hard to run away from this growling mutt but somehow destiny always made him stumble across the domineering alpha. Alexander was broken and Damian wanted to mend him but how will he do that when his mate isn't ready to give him a chance. Alexander had decided there's no place in his heart for anyone else except for his dead lover Daniel whom he wants to bring back to life. No one can take his place, be it mate or not, while the mutt seems to can't keep his hands to himself. Alexander was a total spoiled brat who was in for nothing more than a one night stand while Damien wanted him all for himself. Now how will their story bloom?

"Marry me," Helena said with a pounding heart. Alexander's eyes darkened, making her legs feel like jelly. "And what do I get in return?" "80% of my shares, plus 2 years of my time." "I don't want your shares, Helena... I want you." ***** They say you only realise what you've lost when it's gone. Helena realised this as she lay dying, killed by her husband and sister. Switched at birth and reclaimed by a family that never wanted her, Helena lived as an outsider in her own home. But when her grandfather left her a fortune, suddenly everyone cared. Especially Michael, her sister's ex-boyfriend, who swept her off her feet with promises of love. But love was a lie. Pregnant and naive, Helena signed away everything before they killed her. In her final moments, she prayed for one impossible thing: a second chance. When Helena opens her eyes to the reading of her grandfather's will, she knows exactly what she has to do. No more being the fool. Now, she'll reclaim what's hers and pursue her dream of becoming a doctor. Then she collides with handsome and powerful Alexander Grant, who looks at her like she's a puzzle he's dying to solve. He harbours dark secrets—including a terminal illness and a solemn promise to her dead grandfather. When Helena proposed a contract marriage, his answer ignited a fire neither of them could control. He remembers their past life, and this time, he'll stop at nothing to protect her, claim her, and make her his, even as his own life is fading. But desire is a dangerous game when your grovelling ex-husband wants you back and enemies circle like vultures. Can Helena save the one man who truly loves her, or will trusting her heart destroy her all over again?

I check on family businesses in the countryside with my girlfriend, Mildred McClure, in tow. At noon, we stop by my uncle, Barron Cortez's, place for a simple lunch. Just as we are getting ready to leave, his new wife, whom he married just six months ago, Hilda Ross, rushes out and demands that we settle the bill. "Elden, you two just had the Supreme Farmhouse Set Meal, which is 1,888.80 dollars, and your girlfriend picked three organic, pesticide-free tomatoes in the garden. That's 199.80 dollars. "With an 80% service charge, your total comes to 3,800 dollars." Mildred is stunned. "Elden, do we have to pay to eat at your uncle's place?" I start to feel embarrassed, and my expression darkens as I look at Hilda, my supposed aunt, who's barely any older than me. "I've grown up eating at my uncle's place and never paid a single penny. Besides, your prices are downright outrageous!" Hilda calmly whips out a price menu and righteously declares, "That's all ancient history. Now, we're running a farmhouse business where all prices are clearly marked, so everyone pays the same rate. "Barron said you're some big boss in the city. Surely you're not going to stiff us over a little bill, are you?" She steps in front of the gate to block the exit with her body and shoots me a contemptuous look. "Even family settles their accounts. If you don't pay up today, don't even dream about stepping through this door!" While Mildred panics, I laugh in disbelief before taking out my phone and dialing Barron's number. "Uncle Barron, Hilda wants to settle accounts between family, so don't you think it's time we settled our accounts too?"

En nuestro tercer aniversario, descubrí con horror que mi pareja, Ethan Rivers, había estado pasando las noches con su amor de la infancia, y que incluso el certificado de unión que me había dado era falso. Cuando lo encaré, Ethan me acusó con una frialdad brutal de ser una malagradecida. —Hice la ceremonia de unión con Bella para ayudarla con la presión de su familia. ¿Por qué tienes que ser tan egoísta? No es que no te quiera. Solo es un papel, ¿por qué haces tanto escándalo? Tenía planeado hacer la ceremonia de verdad contigo este año, pero nunca me imaginé que fueras tan ambiciosa. Me decepcionas mucho, Aria. Corté toda comunicación con él y, sin perder tiempo, se llevó a Bella de luna de miel. *** Cinco años después, nos volvimos a encontrar en una reunión exclusiva de manadas. Su manada prosperaba y, a su lado, estaba Bella Rose, cubierta de joyas y con una sonrisa impecable. Al verme agachada en el suelo, buscando entre los restos de pastel en la basura, chasqueó la lengua con impaciencia. —Mira nada más en lo que te convertiste por dejarme. Antes despreciabas el certificado falso, ¡y ahora ni regalada te querría nadie! Por los viejos tiempos, si te arrodillas y le pides perdón a Bella, a lo mejor te dejo volver como nuestra sirvienta. No estaba para lidiar con él. Mi hijo, como parte de una travesura, había escondido mi anillo de unión de 80 millones de dólares en un trozo de pastel, y necesitaba encontrarlo rápido. De lo contrario, cuando llegara su papá, el pequeño volvería a meterse en problemas.

工藤晴香（くどう はるか）はホテルのスイートルームの前に立っていた。中から漏れてくる息づかいが、彼女の耳に容赦なく届く。 「美優。こっちが大変になったときはさっさと消えたくせに、今さらどの面さげて戻ってきたんだ？」そして、中から聞こえる松浦誠（まつうら まこと）の声には、刺々しい怒りがこもっていた。 「お願い、父を助けて……そのためなら、私、何でもするから」それに答える、池田美優（いけだ みゆ）の声は、涙で震えていた。 衣類が床に落ちる音に混じって、誠の笑い声が聞こえてくる。「じゃあ、ここで俺と寝ろって言ったらお前は寝るのか？」 その場を動けずにいた晴香だったが、ベッドがきしむ音が聞こえてくると、ふらつく足取りでホテルを後にしたのだった。 その日の夜、探偵から美優の父親・池田健吾（いけだ けんご）のカルテが送られてきた。 病名は、悪性リンパ腫。骨髄移植が必要で、完治率は80％とのことらしい。 その時ドアが開いた。知らない香水の香りをまとわせた誠が気まずそうな顔で入ってくる。「晴香。恵ちゃんの骨髄のことなんだけど、待ってもらわなくちゃいけなくなったんだ。ドナーの気が急に変わっちゃって……」 晴香は、カルテを彼の顔に叩きつけた。「私の妹の命と引き換えに、あの女と寝たってわけ？本当、最低！」
