Not Your Average Countess
“Pray tell, Emily, what is it you plan to gain from this marriage?”
The vehemence of that word—the way it rolled out harshly from his lips—implied she had tricked him, that she had wanted something from him. A belief Emily hadn’t known he held.
Her eyes widened in realization, and she sought to correct it at once.
Good Lord, was she married to a man who despised her?

"Why..." April stuttered. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Like what?"
"Like you want to eat me."
"I do want to eat you" Mateo smirked, then his face turned serious as he cornered her by the wall, his muscular body hovering above hers. "But before that..." He paused, his voice hoarse and deep.
"Before that?" April tilted her head to the side to have a better view of him.
"I'd hold your waist against mine and kiss you" He whispered against her ear and his hot breath fanned her sending chills down her spine.
"I'd kiss you so passionately till you open up for me and when you do, I'll explore your mouth with my tongue till we're both breathless and aroused. Then my kisses will trail to your neck and then to your breasts." His voice came out as a ragged, painful whisper.
April placed her hands on his chest to stop him as his words were doing things to her she couldn't understand. "W-what about the contract?" She said in a breathy voice.
"Damn that stupid contract!" Mateo said and captured her lips in his.

When Average Meets Ambition
After I studied and lived in Descensio for five years, I finally graduated and was ready to return to my home country to take over my dad's company.
When I arrived at the Sullivan Group building, I took a picture and posted it on my Instagram story with the caption. 'Since you're the man I love most, I'm here to see you immediately after graduation.'
Yet, a woman appeared out of nowhere and slapped me as soon as I arrived at the company's lobby.
"It's her! She's the hussy! She had seduced my husband back in high school. Now that my husband has become the director, she shamelessly showed up here to flirt with him. So, I want you girls to beat her up. I'll take the blame if anything happens."
While the woman was cooking up a story about me seducing Marcus Lane, a director of Sullivan Group, others around simply looked on coldly and judged me.
She slashed my limited-edition bag to pieces and smashed the expensive seal I wanted to give my dad.
"You're just a gold digger wearing and buying fake luxury goods. It's just a few hundred dollars. I can still afford to pay you."
However, little did she know that everything I had was real.
Even if she and her director husband worked for the rest of their lives, they would never be able to afford to pay for the damages.

Why Tech Billionaire Artemis Rhodes would post such a thing?!
"Everyone is talking about the hashtag that just went viral in less than a few hours. Nevertheless, this girl has become a mystery everyone wants to solve. In fact, we have pictures from several people who have seen the girl in person."
The screen of the phone is small but I catch several pictures of me flashing on the screen. This can't be happening!
You know that panic attack I had been pushing down? Well, that thing comes back with a vengeance. It feels like all the air is sucked out of me and my chest gets tight. My vision blurs and I register I'm falling just before things go dark.
"Relax Miss Riley, this is Mr. Rhodes a donor to our hospital. This woman is his fiancee. I'll take things from here." The doctor says and steps aside to let the nurse out.
I watch her scurry away before I focus on the doctor. He's an older man with white hair and a friendly face but he gives me weird vibes.
Wait...did he just say, fiancee?
"I'm sorry what did you say?" I ask.
"I have a proposition for you." The man says.
"A proposition for me? What do you mean?"
"A proposition? It means-"
I wave my hand. "Not that! I'm not an idiot. I mean what proposition?"
"I want you to marry me." He says with a straight face.

The Gap in Our Words
My mother-in-law could not understand me.
Before my business trip, I repeatedly told her not to touch anything in my study, but she mixed up the contract I needed. As a result, I lost a million-dollar order and was fired from my company.
To make up for her mistake, she promised she would take care of my child and help me find another job.
I froze my milk, labeled everything with notes, and gave her detailed instructions on timing and measurements.
However, when my baby ended up in the hospital, I found out that she had thrown out all the milk and fed my baby expired formula instead.
Even worse, she fed my baby peanuts behind my back, causing my baby to suffocate and die.
Afterward, she wailed, "That was my granddaughter! How could I not care? If I could, I'd die with her..."
My husband slapped me, shouting, "My mom worked so hard to take care of the child, and you want to drive her to her death? She's an old woman. It's not easy for her!"
My sister-in-law came over too, calling me ungrateful and blaming me for treating an elderly woman badly. She claimed I deserved to be childless and alone.
However, they did not know how many times I had stopped my mother-in-law from causing trouble and harm to them.
I was driven to depression by them and eventually sent to a mental institution, where I was tortured to death.
If I had the chance to do it again, I would protect my child and myself and stop preventing my mother-in-law from causing chaos for others.
I would watch her bring equal destruction to each one of them!

"Pick up…. pick up… please" When the call did not get through, I burst into tears. The killer was now banging the door violently.
“Inspector Kenneth speaking” Uncle Ken’s voice came through and right at the same the killer made a whole in the door by his continuous banging.
