Cross Of Santo Domingo

Back in the day, in the legal world, Finn Cross and I were the top dogs. Untouchable. He ran New York, a king in criminal defense, never lost a case. I held down Boston, crushing it in civil court. People in the biz used to say it was a good thing we weren't in the same city. If we were, we’d have gone head-to-head, and it was anyone's guess who'd come out on top. But they never would've guessed. Three years ago, I, Victoria Sterling, quietly married Finn Cross. And just like that, the legend of "Vicky" was locked away. I was willing to leave my career behind, to be the quiet, supportive woman behind the great man. I made his coffee, went with him to all sorts of events, and left a light on for him when he came home late. But when Elena, the one he’d always carried a torch for, showed up again, I couldn't keep up this charade anymore.

There are just boundaries we shouldn't cross kaya dapat ay alam natin kung hanggang saan lang tayo sa buhay ng isang tao. When Almirah was paid to be his bedwarmer, alam niyang hanggang doon lang siya. She could only offer her body for the money that she needed —nothing more and nothing less. Kaya lang, nasira ang magandang plano niya sa buhay nang kaniyang nalaman na siya ay nagdadalang-tao. Dahil sa takot sa sasabihin ng iba, lalo na ng kaniyang mga magulang ay itinago niya iyon sa lahat, maging kay Lazarus na ama ng kaniyang dinadala. He had no idea that she was pregnant when she left until a baby was found of the gate of his mansion with a letter telling him that the baby was his child. He raised the baby on his own, but questions remained unanswered. Nasaan nga ba si Almirah? What happened to her over the past years?

Two marriages. Four lives. One tangled web of betrayal, secrets, and revenge. Justin and Kyla were once college sweethearts who had nothing but love and ambition. Together, they built everything from the ground up—a business, a home, a life that seemed unbreakable. Ella and Zach, on the other hand, were forced into a loveless marriage to merge empires and protect family wealth. With money to burn but no affection between them, their union was a gilded cage. One summer, a chance meeting between Justin and Ella at a luxury hotel ignites a reckless affair. What should have been a fleeting fling spirals into something darker—an obsession neither of them can walk away from. But when Kyla and Zach cross paths—two wounded hearts bonded by betrayal—their cold business deal begins to spark with unexpected fire. They both want justice. They both want payback. But what if, in the process of destroying the people who broke them, they find something neither expected? Something dangerously close to love. But could anything happen between these two?
