Simply for touching the bespoke suit of the richest man's son, Horace's mother had her hands and feet broken and was thrown into the sea, where she drowned. On the day he sued the arrogant Master in court, the latter was acquitted. This was because the lawyer who defended him was Amanda, the founder of City Rock's unparalleled law firm and was also Horace's wife. At the end of the trial, the elegant and beautiful woman left the defendant's bench and placed an “apology letter” in front of Horace. “Horace, sign it. You don't want to be sued for defamation and sent to prison, do you?” Her tone was gentle and persuasive, but the gaze hidden behind her gold-rimmed glasses was sharp as ice. Horace glared at her stubbornly, his voice trembling: “Why, Amanda?” He couldn't understand... 


When a wife cheats on their husband and gets pregnant with another man's child, the husband will usually chase her out of the home and ask for a divorce. However, Leon Wolf's situation is a little different. He is 26 years old this year, and he has been married for three years. He lives with his wife and her family who treat him like a slave most of the time. One day, his wife told him that she got pregnant, and he was chased out of the home. Filled with resentment and humiliation over how he had been treated, he found himself wandering all the way to the cemetery, where he saw two men attempting to assassinate a beautiful woman. In his bid to save her, Leon received a fatal stab wound on his chest and dragged one of the men with him into a nearby river…Leon did not resurface even though the woman had waited for a long time, so she believed that Leon had probably drowned. Before she left, she called out optimistically to the river, "My name is Iris Young. If you're still alive, come and see me sometime…"Beneath the water's surface, a soft voice said, "Iris… What a beautiful name…" 


















"Congratulations on passing the online interview, Mr. Bolton. We've already sent the offer letter to your inbox, and we'll need you to report to Linkton within two weeks. Do you have any issues with that?" This is an international call, and the man on the other end speaks fluent Invian.Neal Bolton doesn't hesitate to say, "No issues at all. I'll be there."The door opens right after he hangs up, and Joyce Slater enters the room. When she sees him, she hands him a bag. "I couldn't ring in the New Year with you yesterday because of an emergency at the law firm. Don't be mad."She sounds sincere, so Neal doesn't question it. He takes the bag and glances inside to see a sandalwood bracelet with nothing else. Joyce didn't even care enough to wrap it nicely.He knows these bracelets are expensive, but the truly pricey one is the agarwood bracelet, not this one. This one is just a free gift. The fact that the sandalwood bracelet is here means Joyce purchased the agarwood bracelet yet chose to give him the free gift.If not for the photos Corey Swank sent him yesterday showing off the agarwood bracelet, Neal never would have expected his girlfriend of five years to give the real gift to someone else and give her boyfriend a free gift. 


Luna Sherwood and I have been married for two years, but I'm more like her lapdog than anything else. In the day, I'm the secretary to Sherwood Corporation's female CEO. In the night, I'm her secret husband.
She doesn't care that we're married—she comes and goes with other men, even going so far as to defend them. I ultimately lose hope in her and our marriage and decide to leave.
However, she knocks on my door in the middle of the night. "Are you really going to heartlessly abandon me, Edward?"
She's drunk and complaining about my heartlessness, but does she remember how she treated me when she was lucid?
I push her away coldly. "You're drunk, Ms. Sherwood."
She clings to me again, wrapping her arms around my neck. "Can you take me in for one night, honey?"
She's always been the cold, aloof CEO, but now, she's as gentle as they come.
"Please respect me and yourself, Luna." 










I deeply loved the school beauty, Jenny Bell. The whole school knew I was her lackey.To make her happy, I scrimped and saved all my money to buy her various luxury goods. But she took advantage of my love and tricked me into taking on a $500,000 loan.My parents went bankrupt, we lost our house, and I was sentenced to ten years in prison, suffering humiliation.When I was released, I had nothing. Without a house or a job, I became a homeless man while Jenny Bell transformed into a wealthy wife.I wandered aimlessly in the slums, living among garbage and rats, hiding in dark sewers. I regretted it so much. If I hadn't loved her so much, if I hadn’t trusted her so much, maybe everything would have been different.But there are no ifs.Before I died, I seemed to hear a voice.

I have been dating my girlfriend Vivian White for five years, but we have never even held hands.
One day, I somehow get drunk after just one glass of beer. Alcohol makes me lose my inhibitions, and I sleep with her.
A month later, she tells me that she is pregnant with quadruplets.
Soon, we get married.
I give her a wedding gift of five million, and I add her name as co-owner of the house and car. I also sign a voluntary gift agreement to give her all my savings.
Her condition worsens with every passing day, and her stomach becomes the size of a huge pumpkin.
The doctor advises us to reduce the number of fetuses, but I object resolutely.
"Every single one is a treasure to us. I can't bear to lose any of them. My mother said that if Vivian gives birth, she'll give her ten million for each son and five million for each daughter. She'll even give us a five-storey villa with a garden."
I deliberately say all that because I accidentally overhear a conversation between Vivian and her friend, Michelle Lawson.
"Rowan is now perfectly willing to raise my four babies, and he's transferred the house and the car to me. I'll even be able to get four separate sums of child support in the future.
"I may even be able to marry into an elite family thanks to the quadruplets. After all, the more children I have, the higher my chances."
It turns out that none of the four babies she is carrying are mine. In fact, they all have different fathers.

They act as if I've traded my dignity for obedience.When news reaches my relatives, they believe I've wasted a decade of study only to become a sycophant bowing before a wealthy woman.They speak of me with contempt, ashamed to be connected to me.But only I bear the crushing burden of my sister's mounting hospital bills, which grow heavier with each passing day.Camille holds herself above everyone else, insisting she can't live without me.But I've long since grown weary of her.Still, the contract that binds us won't be over for another month. 
During the summer of the year Stephen Clayton turned 18, Natasha Smith, his crush, called him and asked him to confess to her.

My parents hate each other. They enjoy tormenting each other the most.
My older sister, Nicole Shields, has inherited their brutal and ruthless personality traits from them. She's cruel and obsessive by nature.
But no matter how lunatic and cruel my family is, they spoil and pamper me to no end despite the fact that I'm pure and innocent.
I should've enjoyed my life in luxury and comfort, but I ended up getting abducted into the rural mountains when I was ten years old. After that, I got disfigured and beaten up so much that I became mute.
Once I'm all grown up, I can only work as a food delivery rider in order to put food on the table.
One day, I have to take a bumpy route. Because of that, I accidentally ruin the cake that a rich scion has ordered.
I can only kneel on the floor while showing my documents proving that I'm disabled. At the same time, I keep apologizing silently to the scion.
Still, the scion tramples all over my hand with his shoe. Slowly, he breaks my fingers, causing me to almost faint from the immense pain.
At that moment, a woman with a slim figure walks into the private room. The scion releases me before running over to grab her hand.
I see that familiar figure in my blood-tinged vision, making me call out to the depths of my memory silently.
"Nicole…"
