Dynasty's life begins with a lot of promise when she’s young, but it all changes suddenly when tragedy strikes—her parents are gone. She ends up living with Beverly Catchings, a bitter woman who desires revenge. Growing up with Beverly, who has a twisted view of men, Dynasty starts to lose her trust in them. Beverly fills Dynasty's mind with anger, especially towards a man named Sheppard Choi, whom she blames for their suffering and her time in the hospital. Under Beverly's influence, Dynasty decides to take revenge on Mr. Choi. Yet, when she finally meets him, he turns out to be very different from what she had imagined. As she learns more about him, she questions everything she’s been told. Was Beverly being honest about her own past and even about what happened to Dynasty's parents? This realization sends Dynasty on a journey of self-discovery as she faces deep themes of loss, betrayal, and the potential for love. She struggles to break free from the pain of her past while trying to figure out who her true enemies are and who she can really trust.

I like to give these books fair reviews. This is my first time reading a book on Good Novel that offered a different storyline. I like that it's about marriage but not the way all the books I read portray it. Well done! And recommend ... the others read it!

Part 2
Tears clouded my vision as I watched the emergency team hurry up the stairs to Beverly's bedroom. I was on the floor next to her, my heart racing wildly. I held my breath as I saw them remove her beautiful dress, working quickly and purposefully. They started to apply white bandages to her wounds, trying desperately to stop the bleeding. I felt frozen with fear and helplessness, entirely overwhelmed by the seriousness of what was happening. I had never experienced anything so terrifying before.Amid the turmoil swirling all around me, I could hear the detective's calm voice cutting through the chaos, urgently asking, "Is she the victim? How is she doing?"The person they were referring to was my Boss who had been confirmed as a victim. I was in a state of shock and still couldn't believe my eyes."Sir, we caught her attacker, who was found sitting in his car just outside the building. He was taken into custody and then rushed to the hospital to treat injuries on his right shoulder, che

What Am I, A Suspect?I just couldn't accept that we believe what happened to Beverly, and now her condition has declined. The tears wouldn't stop coming. While pacing back and forth, the doctor walks up to me. "Ms. DuBois, I know you are worried, but you must get some rest. We will call if anything changes with her condition," he said, squeezing my hand, comforting me.I nodded in agreement, feeling light-headed like I might faint. I took several deep breaths and began collecting my things to leave the hospital. That's when the detective walks up to me. "Hey, Ms. DuBois, before you go, I have a few more questions for you."I sighed frustratedly. "What is it now, Sir? I'm exhausted, and I have so many things to do. I'm at my wits' end.""I understand, but let me ask you. Has your boss ever been married before or had a past lover with whom she might have had some recent or even past issues with?"I rolled my eyes. "No, Sir. Can you please excuse me? I have to leave and return to the of

Part 4
Nick smiled, his right brow arched in playful defiance as he countered. “Maybe you don’t remember because you never asked. Of course, I trust you. A woman as lovely as you with a successful business and fantastic track record—why wouldn’t I? Everyone speaks so highly of you and your capabilities.” “Thank you for your kind words and for having faith in me. But I’m quite certain I’ve asked you that question at some point during our time together these past few months,” I replied.Nick’s voice was low and smooth, laced with intrigue. As he leaned forward, escaping the shadows and letting the soft candlelight illuminate his striking features. He exuded an air of commanding masculinity, clean-shaven, his dark hair meticulously styled, every inch radiating confidence. “I’m in Paris, in the company of an exquisite woman. Who has filled my head with fantasy and romantic notions of things I haven't entertained in quite some while. Who wouldn’t want to stay here as long as they could? So,

~Volatile~Angela took a deep breath, her heart racing as she prepared to tell her boss, Beverly, the surprising news. Clearing her throat, she began, her voice steady yet cautious."Well... Beverley, you might want to sit down for this. Nick Vinerelli is Sheppard Choi's business partner."Beverly's eyes widened in disbelief, her voice rising in shock. "What! What did you say?""Yes," Angela continued, choosing her words carefully. "He’s involved in an import business worth billions, but to be honest, he has made a few rather dubious investments along the way. One particularly noteworthy project that Mr. Choi has undertaken a massive hospital in South Korea—a building that features a wing dedicated to his late wife, who tragically passed away five years ago."Beverly sighed and rolled her eyes in exasperation, trying to keep the mood light despite the gravity of the topic. "And Boss, you might find this next bit intriguing."Beverly leaned on the restaurant table, curiosity flickerin

I took a deep breath as I slammed my eyes shut tight! A tear of pain traveled down my cheek."Move away from the door," Nick said in a low, rough tone. When I heard his voice, I thought, 'I'm still alive?' I kept telling myself this was an illusion as I eased my back away from the wall and moved slowly. Nick passed yet another shaft of light from the window. We locked eyes, and again, even as tears slid down my cheeks, I seized with that sensation in my heart that somehow connected to his heart. His eyes are dark, darker than I have ever seen, but not only dark but piercing.His jawline is slightly sucked in; I can't seem to shake it. It's like when you catch a whiff of something that transports you somewhere, like a half-forgotten dream floating away. All you remember is a feeling, and all my feelings surrounding Nick are good."It isn't what you think," I said from her tight throat as I backed up into my bedroom. Once I crossed the sill of the bedroom door, he was on me in a flas

Part 7
With a jolt, I bolted upright, drenched in sweat, my heart pounding like a drum in my chest. Panic gripped me as I turned to my left, anticipating Beverly being alert. But she wasn't; I let out a disappointing sigh. I walked over to her hospital bed, and she was lying there peacefully. The same way she's been since she slipped into that coma. Hot tears blurred my vision, and I hastily wiped them away, bewildered by the wave of emotion. "What did I expect! It wasn't real. It was another stupid dream." I whispered, still haunted by how vivid the dream had been. It felt so real; I could hear her soothing voice, but it was all in my mind. Despite the early hour, I refused to succumb to sleep. It was three in the morning. I stayed awake by splashing water on my face, a feeble attempt to calm my still-racing heart. I then settled in my chair, wrapping the blanket around my shoulders. I take my laptop and open it. I held the very thing Beverly so desperately protected with her life. The dr

Part 8
My voice shook as tears streamed down my cheeks, each drop reflecting the deep sorrow I felt inside. The words I read hit me like a sudden blow, shocking me. She lay there, utterly still and silent, her face an unsettling reminder of what was lost. No matter how loudly I called her name or how hard I cried, she remained unresponsive, caught in a world no one could reach. With a heavy heart, I turned back to my side of the room, sinking into my chair as if the weight of the world were pressing down on me. I struggled to control my emotions, stifling soft sobs as I fought to regain my composure. Each passing moment felt like an eternity, a stark reflection of the distance that now separated us. I yearned for a sign that she could hear me, that my voice mattered.The glow of my laptop beckoned me, enticing me with words that seemed to reach out, urging me to pour my heart onto the screen."My dear," I began. I have held back my feelings all these years, but now it’s time for you to unders

After I had read several pages of Beverly’s journal, it was overwhelming, and I could feel a headache starting to form. Because I had no idea what this meant, and why now? I'm so confused and upset. It's like she knew this would happened to her. And the way this journal sounds like she's been planning for it for some time. But I couldn't resist going back to her bedside once more, running over with emotions. “Yes! It is unfair for you to drop all of this in my lap with you in this condition!" Beverly, I’m so angry with you right now! Why? Why? Did this have to happen to you? I broke down and cried. It was disheartening not to hear her respond and yet so stressful to absorb all this new information. I took a moment to close my eyes, trying to find some calm before diving back into the reading. It was the only line of communication I had to get answers and to see what lay ahead or what I was about to uncover.Dynasty, even at a young age, you have gained many experiences that give y

The Adversary Dark Prince (POV) When people notice the jagged scar on my arm, their eyes often widen with worry, and they jump to conclusions that are far from the truth. It's a common reaction, especially in a world where scars usually hint at pain or violence. But this scar tells a different story—it's not a sign of suffering; it's a symbol of something beautiful and meaningful in my life. Each curve and line of the scar represents resilience and a deep bond that has lasted through challenges, showing that not all scars are reminders of hurt. Instead, it reminds me of love and the strength I've gained along my journey.Albanian Mission: I sprint through the shadowy interior of what appears to be a long-abandoned yacht, the air thick with a musty odor and the echoes of creaking wood beneath my hurried footsteps. The sound of my breath, ragged and desperate, fills the air. My heart pounds in my chest as I catch sight of a cluster of frightened women, their bare limbs trembling and s
