2025-01-26 21:21:38Giselle squinted against the bright sunlight. “Holy crap, I’m late!” The cool night air had lulled her into a deep sleep, and she woke to find the morning well underway.
Alessandro wasn't in bed beside her. Her eyes narrowed, suspicion prickling at her. Looking towards the window, she heard footsteps. Netty was busy in the yard, diligently clearing away weeds and trash.Aware she was being watched, Netty turned and greeted Giselle. "You're up! There's boiled banana in the dining room. Go grab some breakfast. Mom and Dad are already there.""Thanks, but I haven't showered yet. Do I really want to face a room full of flies?" Giselle joked, and they both chuckled.Giselle found Netty incredibly sweet, especially when she smiled, showing her teeth. No, she was genuinely pretty."Sis, you're spacing out," Netty's question startled Giselle. "Oh, nothing. Have you eaten yet?" Giselle asked.Netty set down her tools and w

The atmosphere soured instantly.Selena, her mother-in-law, offered a welcome distraction. "Mother, what can I help with?" Giselle asked, approaching her."No!" Selena shifted, turning her back. "It might seem odd to forbid you from helping, but it's best if you find something else to do, or just sit and enjoy the grilled fish.""Alright everyone, it's done!

"Giselle, still sleeping? It's scorching hot; it's noon, you know!" Selena's voice jolted Giselle awake. She hadn't even realized her mother-in-law was standing beside her bed."Sorry, M-mother..." Giselle stammered, nerves jangling. A cough and approaching footsteps distracted her."Why are you still here? Go to the bathroom, at least wash those clothes piled up in the bucket. Don't be lazy after this. Remember, Giselle, Alessandro won't defend you if you act like this."This was the first time Giselle had heard her mother-in-law speak so sharply, so angrily. Had someone poisoned her mother-in-law's mind, making her take it out on Giselle?Alessandro entered the room, finding it cold and silent. "Mother, why are you here? What's going on?"The middle-aged woman folded her arms, glancing at Giselle. "I'm here to teach your wife a lesson. Look at her, still sleeping in bed while you've just returned from fishing. Do you think I'd be happy seeing her lazing around?"Giselle hung h

"Alessandro, where have you been?" Alessandro turned at the sound of his name. Seeing Netty hurrying towards him, he knew she had something to say. "What is it?" "I need to tell you something about your wife, Giselle." Alessandro frowned. "Giselle? What's wrong with her?" Netty took a breath. "Your wife... she's pregnant!" "It's just a guess, a logical one. We talked, and I told you to take her to the clinic; don't just rely on herbal remedies." Alessandro fell silent, contemplating the future. "Okay, I'll go back." **"Look, you're dehydrated. Were you like this before?" The midwife at the clinic complained after examining Giselle. Giselle, realizing she'd lost weight, said, "It's been three weeks. You should eat more fruits and nutritious food." Alessandro pondered the midwife's advice. Giselle was clearly struggling to adapt to life in the isolated village. Poor thing! But

"Holy crap! Every grocery store on this island is out of supplies!" The announcement caused a commotion among Giselle's neighbors. Panic set in as Alessandro spoke, "So, how are we supposed to shop?" "We're out of staples at home too! There's still rice at the store, right?" Raffaele responded with a shrug. "Life on a remote island is tough. If the supply ship doesn't come, people struggle to find basic necessities." Giselle slumped. "If there's no rice, what am I going to eat? She leaned in and whispered to her husband, "How long do we usually wait for the supply ship?" Alessandro pondered, sighing with a forced smile. "I can't say for sure. It could be a month, maybe two." That long? Giselle was shocked. She'd never imagined this. But her in-laws and sister-in-law seemed calm and unbothered. "Alessandro, being the head of the family isn't just about marriage, you know that, right?" Selena suddenly spoke, in

Before her husband returned, Giselle tidied their room. Her gaze fell upon a phone she'd kept for a while. "I should have sold this thing instead of letting it gather dust." Regret washed over her when she realized the village had no electricity. Regret was useless. Giselle never expected to end up in such a remote, isolated place. How did people here communicate? Giselle took several deep breaths. At that moment, Alessandro's voice echoed, the door opening. "Honey, are you ready? Let's go!" Giselle emerged in a long-sleeved shirt and sweatpants, anticipating the cold weather. Alessandro nodded approvingly. "Oh, did you eat? I just bought these..." Giselle slammed the door shut, startling Alessandro."Why'd you close the door?" "This might sound weird, but if Mother or Father see this, they'll make fun of me again. I don't want that." Giselle's frustration was evident. Alessandro sighed, but Giselle, unfa

"The baby's born!"Hearing the baby's cry, Alessandro breathed a sigh of relief. In an instant, the house filled with curious onlookers. "I can't believe Alessandro finally has a son!""Alessandro, are you recovered? Your wife just gave birth; she can't work alone. You know what I mean."Alessandro nodded to the midwife. "Yes, it's thanks to the medicine you gave. Thank you for your advice."His gaze shifted to Giselle, her condition alarming. She was incredibly thin and pale. "Giselle, you need to eat a lot to recover. For now, be patient. You know your husband is also just recovering, right?"It sounded offhand, but Giselle was happy to feel cared for. Throughout her pregnancy, she'd been frequently ill, worrying the healthcare workers.She remembered their warning about a possible C-section. But the delivery had gone well, and she was grateful.The mountain of housework was now her biggest concern. She wanted to complain but couldn't fight her fate, however difficult it was.

"Mr. David, I beg you not to be like this, don't do this to us, my husband is not at home." As the door opened, Alessandro appeared and saw Selena pleading with a loan shark. Alessandro was enraged and walked straight up to them. "What's going on here?" The loan shark, called David by his mother, turned to Alessandro with a sly smile. "Ah, young man, you don't need to intervene in this matter. This is just a matter between me and Mrs. Selena." Selena tried to separate herself from the loan shark, "But can't you wait until my husband arrives?" Seeing his mother crying, Alessandro could not stand it, and immediately took action, about to hit the figure in front of him. "Stop!" Netty's stern voice stopped Alessandro's plan. "I beg you, don't do anything violent here. If you want to blame me, blame me for making father go into debt." Alessandro was surprised by this information. "What do you mean Netty? You said father's debt? So you owe money to a loan shark?" "Right!" At the suc

She wouldn't return home; she would start a new life, far from the shadows of debt and exploitation.Suddenly, a commotion erupted outside. David stopped, his brow furrowing. The shouts and struggle sent a jolt of surprise and panic through him."What's going on?" he muttered, listening intently.From the window, Netty saw Alessandro grappling with several men – thugs, clearly hired by David.

Louis grabbed his chin viciously and received fierce stares from him. "Why—" Mischa still thought, if I tell the truth, would everything change?"Actually—" when Mischa tried to speak, Louis interrupted him. "I'll hear your words if it makes sense!""I-I just want the baby in my womb to have a father. Even if he is not your flesh and blood, do you just hope that you will consider him your son?""What?" Louis reacted in shock and squeezed his hair roughly, "Enough Mischa! Don't go any further, this is already a great insult to me and my family." Deep expressions of disappointment were clearly visible on his face. She couldn't believe it, and Mischa instead made her a cover for her disgrace. Really, a very heartless woman! "Forgive me Louis, I mentioned this reason for the sake of our relationship. Ever since Netty was by your side, you didn't even glance at me at all...""Unfortunately I'm too stupid to trust people like you so easily. If I had known from the beginning, I wouldn't
Mysterious Husband is Billionaire The Night the Whiskey Talked
Louis wasn’t driving himself home. He’d opted for a cab, pulling up in front of a bar he hadn’t visited in ages. Stepping inside, the place was a whirlwind of young, reckless revelers and dancers grooving to the thumping DJ music. He weaved through the crowd, grabbing a drink the moment he spotted an empty stool.“Louis! What the hell are you doing?” Lucas appeared, his voice sharp, as he caught sight of his twin brother knocking back shots of hard liquor.“Louis, have you lost your mind? Your wife’s waiting at home, and you’re here, getting plastered?”Lucas tried to snatch the shot glass, but Louis held firm, his voice surprisingly calm. “Why the rush? Let’s relax and drink this stuff until we’re happy. Don’t worry about the cost.”This was getting out of hand. Louis wasn’t usually a drinker; this change was unsettling. Lucas needed to get him out of there before the alcohol did more damage. “Damn it! How do I even contact Mischa? My phone’s still in the car.”“Still want to wa
Mysterious Husband is Billionaire Shattered Vows
Louis’s words hung in the air, sharp as a threat. Mischa wondered if the woman with the long nails and platinum blonde hair was deliberately trying to drive a wedge between them. Giselle watched the woman discreetly. When Louis excused himself to make a call, Mischa casually pulled a cigarette from her purse and lit it, the acrid smell of tobacco instantly filling the room. Giselle coughed. "Excuse me, but this is a non-smoking area. There's a sign right over there."Mischa glanced at the sign Giselle indicated, then rolled her eyes. "And I care?"Giselle took a deep breath, composing herself. Just as Louis returned, Netty's doctor emerged from the room. "Doctor, how is my sister-in-law?" Giselle asked anxiously."She's still unconscious. We'll be monitoring her hourly. Please, try to stay calm."Louis was about to enter Netty's room, but Mischa stopped him. "Can't we just go home? You've already done so much…" Her plea hung unspoken in the air."No! Can't you see someone's life is

In her apartment, Mischa still couldn't sleep and kept shifting positions restlessly. Her eyes darted to the wall clock, then she mumbled, "It's already 2:00 AM." Slowly she sat up and leaned back against the pillow, blinking several times before glancing at her phone, which hadn't flashed since earlier. Her breath came out heavy, and her alertness heightened. Louis was going to meet Netty. "I have to make sure Netty keeps her distance from my husband." Mischa picked up her phone, planning to distract herself by opening social media. As she saw a post, her anxiety deepened when she noticed her husband's location was at the hospital! "This feels strange; I need to find out what he’s doing there." *** 2:05 AM "Ms. Netty needs type B blood. So we are currently looking for someone willing to donate..." Louis still remembered the doctor's words while talking to his sister Giselle, so he immediately went to see the doctor after making his decision. "Excuse me, doctor, I came to don
Mysterious Husband is Billionaire A Familiar Back, A Troubled Heart
A social media post stopped Netty in her tracks. The photo showed a back – a very familiar back. She wanted to guess, but fear of being wrong gnawed at her. She checked the account’s owner, a name she recognized: "L Mischa." So familiar, but why the single 'L'? Could it be…? Should she guess it stood for Louis? Was it true, then? Were she and Louis meant to be? Before Netty could dwell further, a notification popped up. A new post from the same account, instantly showered with likes and supportive comments. "My guess is right, the 'L' stands for Louis. Is this the answer to my prayers? If we aren't meant to be, then help me find someone else, someone to help me forget his kindness and our memories." A text message arrived, advertising a part-time night shift job. "I guess this is it. Time to quit my old job and take this new one, even if it's just as a convenience store clerk, only six hours a day." Netty made up her mind. She told her family, grabbed her bag, and left to apply.

Frustration, anger, and pent-up emotions boiled over after a failed plan. Louis vanished without a trace after that day, disappearing from circulation and ignoring all calls, both business-related and from his parents.His mind was consumed by the desire to apologize to Netty. If he went to her house and asked her family about her, would they tell him? But what if Netty wasn't home?He could barely imagine what would happen if he found out Netty wasn't home. Although he had called her several times, there was only a forwarding message.He spent his days alone, exhausted, without a confidante to vent the frustrations that had been building for days.Today, Louis unknowingly stopped near Mischa's family home. Before getting out of the car, he sat contemplating, murmuring, "I wonder how Mischa's doing?"Suddenly, he thought about the woman he admitted he didn't love at all. His expression was somber. Should he see Mischa now? Doubt clouded his eyes, but what would he say if he did?It

The whispers followed Giselle like a shadow. "They say she never got her mother's love, not even as a baby," one voice hissed. Another chimed in, "Really? Where'd you hear that?" Giselle’s cheeks burned. The judging stares felt like knives. But the whispers died down abruptly as a figure appeared – Alessandro, her husband. "Al-Alessandro..." breathed the gossips. Their attention shifted back to their shopping, the initial purpose of their visit to Giselle’s grocery store. Alessandro’s arrival transformed Giselle's frown into a radiant smile. Serving her customers, she was noticeably more relaxed. Alessandro, however, watched her with a tender gaze, a small smile playing on his lips. Netty, noticing this exchange, chuckled softly. Despite the storms they’d weathered, Giselle felt incredibly fortunate to have him. And now, cradled in her arms, their beautiful baby boy, Leon, completed their picture.
