Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless Note for readers
Thank you for reading. Regarding the letters from Mr. Warner: I previously mentioned Richard confiding in Ana about the clot in his brain, revealing that he doesn’t have much time left. Richard's father was aware of this as well. Moreover, he didn’t want to tarnish his mother’s image in Richard’s mind, which is why he wrote those letters and kept them hidden, setting certain conditions. Ana received a letter where her father explained why he accepted the marriage proposal from Richard's father. After being betrayed by Richard's mother, Richard's father feared that if Selena gained control, disaster could befall Richard. To protect his son, Richard's father chose Ana to be Richard’s wife when they were children and conveyed this wish to Richard's grandmother. I didn’t mention the letter Ana received from her father because she never asked Richard for it. She placed complete trust in him and her father's decision for her to marry Richard. She believed that if anything serious were me
Last Updated : 2024-05-28Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless The ruthless reality
[The novel contains several adult situations.] ★★★★ The sound of a choked voice filled the room, accompanied by constant sobbing. It was Anastasia, and she was struggling with a deep sense of confusion and pain. "Mom, why am I experiencing all of this?" she asked in between sobs, her voice barely audible. At the tender age of 19, she found herself married to a stranger. The whole affair seemed rather surreal to her - the wedding ceremony was nothing more than a mere formality, and she had never even exchanged a single word with her supposed "husband". The worst part, however, was that the marriage had already been consummated on paper; her signature was the only thing left to make it official. She couldn't help but wonder what kind of life lay ahead of her. Tears streamed down her face as she huddled in the dark, dingy corner of the room. It was a storage space that had been hastily cleared out to accommodate her, but the lingering scent of dust and decay filled her nostrils. T

★★★★ "Take me home, mom! I would prefer not to remain here. These individuals pose a threat. Mom, they're going to kill me if I stay any longer. This is not a marriage!" Wiping away her tears, Anastasia pleaded hurriedly, hoping her mother would hear her and take her out of the house. "Ana, I understand that the current situation may not be ideal for you, but please remember that the house you are currently residing in belongs to you and your husband, Richard Hill. Although your marriage may not be a typical one, with a little bit of adjustment, you can have a better future,” Ana's mother responded steadily despite the fact that her daughter's choked voice indicated that something was wrong. She missed such obvious signs that her daughter had been upset by something. 'or Ana's mother was doing that purposefully.!' "Mom, no... this is not the greatest place for me to live my life; instead, every day will be awful. They assigned me a dirty store room to dwell in, and Richard'

★★★★★ The door banged violently in the morning, startling Anastasia who had gone to sleep last night after sobbing for over an hour. In addition, she didn't eat yesterday night, thus her first thought upon waking up was food. Anastasia staggered over to the door and opened it, only to see the same servant standing there with the clothes in her hand. “It appears that you slept soundly last night. If you wish to eat breakfast, put on these clothes and join the rest of the family at the breakfast table within ten minutes; else, food will not be served to you later," The servant said while rolling her eyes. She could not get over the pleasure she got from criticizing this woman; it made her feel superior. Anastasia's expression was plain, and she didn't force herself to speak since she believed she deserved it. It was not their fault; it was her parents who purposefully pushed her into this circumstance and had no intention of helping her out of it. Which meant that no matter how horr

★★★★ Ana had endured a terrible week, losing a lot of weight while working nonstop for twenty-four hours in the Hill home with other maids, and not receiving food like the others. She generally ate a small amount of food twice a day, which was why she became sick a few days ago. But what convinced her to give up the struggle was that, despite their presence at the hospital, her parents made no mention of taking her with them, nor did they take any action against Hill's family. Her heart felt hopeful when she saw them because she assumed that given her condition, her parents would call the police, but they confirmed she was not a lucky child, and neither did her parents regard her as their child. When they were leaving, Ana did not cry for a single moment, nor did she urge them to come back. Her heart had been encased in a thick coating of ice when her parents' distant behavior was revealed to her; this small act also helped her realize she was alone. She was a gifted medical stude

★★★★ "Ahh!! Oh fuck! Blood!" Jerry felt paralyzed when he saw the red liquid on his hand and turned to Anastasia, who was also shuddering at the sight of blood. Ana began to feel suffocating because Jerry was bleeding profusely. "I will kill you tonight and then bury you in this room," Jerry howled menacingly, storming Anastasia to kill her, but Ana flung the lamp stick again as she got out of bed. She bent a little and picked up the bag off the floor before bolting from the room. Jerry removed his t-shirt and rolled it into a ball before placing it on the wound that was jetting out blood as he rushed out from the room following Anastasia, who could not be alive after today, and he was adamant to kill her tonight. An alarm switch that had been there for emergencies if a robber entered this residence as well as for other purposes was mounted on the wall. This button was also near the entrance, but Anastasia didn't know about it and didn't think that knowing about it would help her.

5 years later★★★"Can we anticipate that you will make New York your permanent home, Dr. Anastasia?" A redhead woman emerged from the automobile, prompting a reporter to ask out loud. She pushed the door closed and put on her sunglasses as she began walking. Her white skin glistened like crystal in the sunlight, while her hair appeared like a cascade magnified by the dawn. Even though the media representatives were there to conduct their duties, the breathtaking beauty in front of them caused them to gasp in awe."Doctor, who is your boyfriend? Are you getting married anytime soon?" Another reporter inquired as to when Anastasia crossed her path while on her way to the hospital with a guard shielding her from the mob. Though it was unusual for a doctor to be so renowned, Anastasia was a wonderful surgeon at such a young age, and as a result, she was well-known to people of all ages; also, her amazing beauty drew people to her. Despite her notoriety, Dr. Anastasia was extremely pri

★★"I am a doctor. I am here to check your health, Mister. Let go of my hand," Anastasia commanded with a scowl, her wrist throbbing with excruciating pain since the grip was more than just a grab.But the man continued to stare at Ana with wide eyes, until suddenly the grasp on her hand eased, and the man closed his eyes. Anastasia soon realized something was wrong, and she acted fast by reaching over the man and placing her finger under his nose, sensing he was not breathing."Nurse!" Anastasia yelled and began pumping his chest with both hands. However, this was insufficient to help the man breathe, so she pinched his nose opened his mouth, and began transferring air.Her mouth pressed against his, forcing air into his mouth to quicken his heartbeat.Suddenly a man burst into the ward and discovered a woman doing something to his boss."What are you doing? Who lets you in?!" The man raced to Anastasia in an attempt to fling her away from his boss, and she would later face severe pu

Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless Epilogue
****** Ana spotted her mother in the crowd, her heart clenching with a mix of emotions. Despite the hurt and anger she felt towards her mother and those who had wronged her in the past, there was a part of Ana that longed for reconciliation, for a chance to mend the broken relationships. "You're late, the party started long ago," Ana said, her tone tinged with a hint of reproach. Her mother turned to her, her eyes filled with warmth and regret. "I know, Ana, and I'm sorry. But seeing you now, looking so beautiful and radiant, I couldn't help but be filled with pride and joy. You're glowing like a new bride, my dear. I want to give you all my blessings and wishes, and I pray that God, if there is one, will shower you with happiness for the rest of your life." Ana felt a lump form in her throat as her mother enveloped her in a warm embrace. It had been so long since they had shared such a moment, since Ana had felt the comforting embrace of her mother's arms and the familiar scent th
Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless Selena's confession
***** The party began with a flurry of guests and media personnel, all abuzz with the shocking revelation that Richard Hill had been secretly married for years. The news was a stark contrast to his highly publicized engagement with Miss Emilia, which turned out to be a complete hoax. "Mr. Hill, this is quite the surprise!" a reporter exclaimed, approaching Richard, who stood among his friends, holding a glass of whiskey. He looked every bit the charismatic figure, exuding an almost godlike presence. Richard smiled, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "Well, I suppose I’ve always had a knack for surprises." The reporter leaned in, eager for more details. "I believe there will be many wedding photos you would love to share with us. How did you manage to keep your marriage a secret for so long?" Richard chuckled softly. "It wasn't easy, I assure you. But sometimes, the most important things in life are worth the extra effort to keep private. My wife and I valued our privacy above all
Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless The party
*****One month later; There was a grand celebration at Hill Mansion, where Richard used to live. Grandmother had already arranged the event for Richard and Ana, so they couldn't cancel the party despite their initial plans. Richard had been bedridden for a month, resting. When he finally decided to take a vacation, Grandmother's request delayed their departure by a couple of days."Ana, what is taking you so long to pick a dress for the party?" Phoebe asked, clearly stressed. Ana's indifference and laid-back attitude about the event were getting on her nerves."This dress makes me feel like a billionaire," Ana grumbled, flopping onto the bed. "It's too much. I prefer a low-profile look."Phoebe sighed, exasperated. "Ana, this isn't just any party. Grandmother has called the media to announce your marriage. Can't you make an exception just this once?"Ana looked thoughtful for a moment before responding. "I know, Phoebe. I just don't want to stand out too much. But for Richard, I'll
Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless Sonia met Mason
****** "Are you alright?" Sonia asked Mason, who had just undergone surgery to remove a bullet from his arm. Despite his critical condition, no one had come to visit him except for Selena. "I don’t need your sympathy," Mason replied coldly. "Knowing about my health won’t gain you anything. You can leave." Sonia frowned, feeling hurt by his harsh words. "Mason, I’m not here to gain anything. I was with you the entire time, talking to the doctors and making sure you were okay." Mason’s expression softened slightly, but he quickly masked it with a scowl. "Why would you do that? I didn’t ask for your help." Sonia took a deep breath, trying to keep her composure. "You didn’t have to ask. I care about you, Mason. I couldn’t just stand by and do nothing while you were fighting for your life." Mason looked away, his jaw tightening. "You shouldn’t care. It only makes things more complicated." Sonia stepped closer, her eyes filled with determination. "Why? Why does it have to be complicat
Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless Ana blushed
******Ana blushed further, like a young girl who had just felt her heart flutter upon hearing the truth from the man she had taken a liking to."Then who was that girl with you, and why did you let her touch you?" Ana asked, her brow furrowed in displeasure."She was Mr. Warner's daughter," Richard explained gently. "I met with her to discuss the letters from our fathers. Her touching me was accidental. I quickly moved away, worried my body might react again. It wasn't the right time to fall ill," he added with a soft smile."The blood clot in your brain was the reason for this unusual reaction in your body. It was never your disease," Ana revealed the truth to Richard.Richard smiled lightly, causing Ana to raise her eyebrows in confusion. "What’s so funny about what I said?" she asked."Are you hiding something from me?" Ana probed, her voice tinged with concern."No, I'm not hiding anything," Richard replied, his smile fading into a more serious expression. "When I read the letter
Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless The loving morning
******It had been two long days since Richard was staying to the emergency room. Following the surgery, Ana had instructed everyone that he needed ample time to rest and recover, so they had purposefully kept him sedated to aid his healing process.On the morning of the third day, Richard's fingers twitched, signaling the first signs of awakening. Slowly, he opened his eyes, the room coming into soft focus around him. As his vision cleared, he noticed an abundance of flowers surrounding his bed, their vibrant colors filling the room.He sat up with a cold expression, immediately sensing something was amiss. Reaching up, his hand brushed the side of his head, where he discovered a significant chunk of hair missing. Confusion clouded his mind as he tried to piece together what had happened.Just then, a nurse entered the room, her cheerful demeanor contrasting with his bewilderment. "Sir, you're awake! We've been expecting this. How are you feeling?" she asked with a bright smile."Wha
Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless The operation
*****"Ana," Phoebe called softly, tugging lightly at Ana's hand as she stepped out in her surgical gown."Are you really sure about this?" Phoebe's voice trembled with concern. "What if Richard doesn't even remember you? Do you want to go through with it so hastily?" Her eyes were filled with worry, her brow furrowed as she stared at Ana's face for reassurance."His life means everything to me," Ana said, taking a deep breath. "Right now, it doesn't matter to me whether he recognizes me when he wakes up or not. I'll accept whatever fate has in store for us."Phoebe looked at her friend, noticing the cold, almost clinical expression on Ana's face. It was a look she'd seen before—one Ana wore whenever she prepared for a major work. Ana believed that feelings and emotions had no place in critical moments, and today was no exception."But Ana," Phoebe pleaded, her voice tinged with desperation, "how can you be so detached about this? This isn't just any operation. This is Richard. Your R
Dear Husband, I have become Ruthless Ana has to operate
"I had very carefully put Ana to bed last night," Sonia said with confidence. "I'm sure whatever happened must have occurred this morning. At the same time, I messaged Jackson and asked him to send you home," she explained, her voice steady. She had left Ana safely in another room before heading over to Mason's room. However, when she returned to Ana's room in the morning, she didn't find her there, which made her think Ana might have left for home. Phoebe looked puzzled. "So, you're saying Ana was fine when you left her?" "Yes," Sonia confirmed. "I made sure she was safe and asleep. I wouldn't have left her otherwise." Phoebe's voice quivered as she spoke, "I'm sorry if I sound judgmental, but I can't shake this feeling that I should have been more careful last night." Tears welled up in her eyes as she fretted over what could have happened to Ana while she was safe at home. Sonia responded with empathy, "I understand. Right now, all we can do is hope and pray for the best." She r
