Chapter 1 Back With a Pregnant Woman.

*AURORA*[6 AM, pick me up at the airport.]The sudden glow of my phone screen shattered the silence in the dark room. The piercing light startled me awake. Half-asleep, I rubbed my eyes and squinted at the abrupt message.For a moment, my heart skipped a beat, and my fingers trembled slightly. That number, that tone—was it him? My husband, Lucien?The airport? Was he coming back? The thought alone quickened my breath, as if an invisible hand had gripped my throat, leaving me momentarily unable to breathe.Frantically, I reached for the bedside lamp. The warm yellow light dispelled some of the darkness but couldn't chase away the unease in my heart. I stared at the message, reading it over and over, as if I could see through the screen and glimpse the man behind those words.Just then, my phone buzzed again. Another message appeared:[Answer me, Aurora.]It was him—it had to be. Who else would be so imperious, disregarding the fact that it was the middle of the night, a time when ever

Chapter 2 Open Marriage

*AURORA*I gasped."Together? You're married to me!""I never wanted to. Or have you forgotten how you forced me to marry you?""You said...you said when you come back...you said we'd be together again? How could you do this to me? You were with her all this time?"This all felt so unreal.No.I turned to face Carla."How can you do this to me? You..."My friendship with her had come to an abrupt end due to her improper behavior toward Lucien.At the time, I was certain she had exited our lives for good. But now, I see they are two sides of the same coin!Carla, in her relentless pursuit of a life with Lucien, had schemed and manipulated to the utmost degree.What she called "great love" was, for me, a searing agony that cut to the bone.I turned to Lucien, tears streaming down my face, my voice trembling as I demanded, "Is this what you call your studies? Mastering the art of destroying a marriage?""Aurora, watch your tone!" he shot back, his voice cold and dismissive. "In today's wor

Chapter 3 The Prey for Tonight

*AURORA*I stepped into a bar bathed in dim, sultry lighting and filled with the pulse of raucous music, my heart brimming with anticipation and inner conflict.Settling slowly onto a high stool at the bar, my hands unconsciously twisted together as my eyes cautiously scanned the room, weighing the potential "choices" around me.The dance floor was alive with a myriad of handsome men, their movements fluid and confident under the shifting lights.Yet, I couldn't help but feel out of place in this setting.How was I supposed to take the first step?Was I really expected to walk right up and bluntly ask someone if they'd like to sleep with me? My cheeks grew warm at the mere thought. How would the people around me react? Would they whisper behind my back, labeling me a shameless woman?I swallowed hard, my gaze dropping nervously to the untouched drink in front of me as if it could somehow offer me solace."You can do this, Aurora," I whispered to myself, trying to summon a shred of cou

Chapter 4 Forbidden Kiss

*AURORA*I slowly shifted my gaze away from Damon, the man radiating a magnetic allure in front of me, and glanced at the phone vibrating incessantly in my hand. A storm of emotions churned within me.It was undeniable—anyone who laid eyes on Damon would be captivated by his unique charm. He looked like he had stepped straight out of a Greek myth, a modern-day Eros exuding temptation with every breath.By comparison, Lucien's image in my mind seemed dull, even laughable. Rationally, I knew I should ignore the call and focus entirely on the man before me, whose very presence made my pulse race.Hesitating briefly, I found the phone in my hand felt as heavy as lead.Damon, as though reading my thoughts, shrugged nonchalantly. That casual movement carried an air of carefree indifference. "If you want to answer it, then answer," he said.His voice cut through the silence like a sharp blade. Though his tone was cold and detached, I caught a flicker of disdain in his gaze.Was that disdain

Chapter 5 Lucien, Let's Divorce

*AURORA*But I didn't have the luxury of pondering the deeper meaning behind his words. I pushed him away forcefully, my determined gaze signaling him to let go of me.Frantically, I opened my bag and rummaged through it, finally pulling out a check for ten million.Feeling a bit guilty, I placed it on the bed and forced an awkward smile. "Thank you for taking the time. Consider this... payment for tonight."However, Damon's reaction caught me entirely off guard.He didn't show the gratitude or excitement I expected. Instead, a faint, almost mocking laugh escaped his lips.His gaze moved slowly from the check back to me, his eyes scrutinizing me like a peculiar object. His voice, cold and calm, cut through the tension: "This is your solution?"Despite his well-disguised disdain, I caught a subtle flicker of contempt in his tone.It made me question myself—had I done something wrong? How could someone who worked in a place like a bar remain indifferent to such a substantial amount of m

Chapter 6 Like a Sullivan

*AURORA*“Are you threatening me right now? How dare you use a divorce to threaten me? You think that would make me abandon Carla?!”I sighed, heavily.“On the contrary, I’m doing this to make you get together properly with Carla. You’re expecting a child with her now. The child is innocent so it shouldn’t suffer for anyone’s mistakes and decisions. I want the child to grow up in a normal healthy family. So we should get divorced and you should go marry Carla.” I advised.My fingers clenched around the steering wheel.It wasn’t easy saying these words but I believed that it was what I needed.I shouldn’t cling desperately to a man who doesn’t want me.I didn’t want to continue to spend the rest of my life inside an empty shell of a marriage.I met Lucien’s gaze in the rear view mirror, it was cold and stern.Shouldn’t he be happy? Wasn’t this what he had always wanted?He scoffed.”And you expect me to believe you really want a divorce. Aurora, you threatened to kill yourself I don’t m

Chapter 7 The obstacles

*AURORA*I continued listening in on their conversation.“Grandpa, how can you comfortably do this to me! I am your grandson! Aurora isn’t even related to us. Her family doesn’t even care about her as much as you do! It is unfair!”“Rory was Miguel’s favorite grandchild.”Rory was my nickname and Miguel was my late grandfather.“From birth, we knew that you two belonged together. And how dare you bring up the issue of the Diaz against Rory. That family relationship have fallen apart since Miguel passed, Rory has nothing to do with it! If anything, you should cherish her more after all she had been through. How can you treat her so heartlessly? I just can’t understand it! You used to be so much in love with her…”“I fell out of love with her! People are allowed to do that. I am not the first man who has fallen out of love with a woman!” Lucien thundered.“Fine but remember, if you push through with the divorce, in fact the day you give up the identity of Aurora’s husband, that is the d

Chapter 8 Manuel Dumont

*AURORA*“Do not call her that!” Lucien scolded Fabiola.I watched as Fabiola eyed him and then she asked.“When are you going back? Why did you even come back, anyway? You should have remained abroad.”“If Lucien dares to leave again, he’ll stop being a member of this family. You and Aurora would share the Sullivan’s property equally.” Lucien’s father declared.I saw Fabiola clapped her hands, excitedly.“Did you hear that, Rory? You and I will be in charge. I’ve always known we’ll be great women and then we’ll have any man at our disposal.”“At such a young age, your mind is filled with bullshit! I know who you learnt it from though, such a shame.” Lucien spat.Everyone glared at him, including me.Grandpa Sullivan spoke.“Fabiola, we aren’t disowning your brother yet. We’d give him time to prove his worth. Lucien, you’ll go to the company tomorrow and take over the position of general manager.”“What a pity.”Fabiola let out, disappointedly.“Recently, our construction company isn’t

Chapter 9 The phone call

*AURORA*“I’m not spending the night here.” Lucien announced, indifferently.Alma slammed her cutlery on the table, angrily.“Where are you spending the night then? With that goblin? If you dare to leave the house, I’ll have someone get rid of her!”Lucien glared at his mother.”You wouldn’t dare!”“Try me.”I grimaced and continued to eat, watching the drama as entertainment.Even though I hated Carla and Lucien a lot, I didn’t wish any of them death.I just didn’t want to be around either of them ever again.However, I was still curious as to what Lucien could do for Carla though.***************Lucien and I had no choice but to retire to the same bedroom.I was sitting on the bed while he was at the balcony.He had been on the phone for almost an hour now.Since he was loud, I happened to know that he was talking to Carla and he apparently was begging her to forgive him for not being able to go to her tonight.Plus I could tell she was crying because he kept begging her not to cry.

Chapter 10 Presenting gifts

*AURORA*Glancing at Lucien on the couch, I recalled that he had a low tolerance for cold.I sensed that he was already asleep, then I got the remote of the air conditioner and deliberately made the air as cold as possible.The only thing I felt now was tormenting him every chance I get.I hid the remote and went to sleep.When I woke up in the middle of the night, I saw him, curled up on the couch and shivering.With a satisfied smile, I went back to sleep.In the morning, I wasn’t surprised when he woke up with a cold.I never thought the day would come when all I would feel for him was hate.He deserved it and until we get divorced, I would continue to torment him.I didn’t care that he was ill this morning, I got ready and headed for the TV station.Coupled with the fact that I worked at the Sullivan’s company, I was also a TV host.This had been my dream since I was little and I was glad the Sullivans allowed me to work here even if I knew that deep down, they would prefer I work
