Chapter 1 The Divorce Agreement

"Philip, this is the divorce agreement.  I've already signed it.  Please give it to Carlos."

Debbie Nelson plucked up her courage and handed the signed agreement to Philip Brown, the steward of the Hilton family.

Philip was shocked by the words "divorce agreement".  His first thought was that Debbie wanted to get a divorce so as to carve up the property that belonged to Carlos Hilton.

But as he looked through the document, he saw that she wanted to give up everything, including her share of the mutual property.

Philip heaved a heavy sigh.  "Debbie, why are you being ridiculous?  Why would you want to divorce Mr. Hilton and even choose to give up your property?"

Debbie was only a college student, and she had no parents.  It was unwise for her to ask for a divorce now, much less give up her property that was worth quite a fortune.

Embarrassed, Debbie looked away and scratched the back of her head.  "Carlos and I have been married for three years, but our marriage only exists on paper.  I don't want to waste my time on him anymore," she admitted, instead of hiding the reason from Philip.

Chapter 1 The Substitute Bride

Celia Kane woke up in a trance, finding herself weak and dizzy.  The most bizarre thing was that she was wearing a wedding dress.

Several bodyguards held her and were about to force her into a bridal car.

"Wait!  What are you doing?  Let go of me!"  Celia was in a panic.  She couldn't believe what was happening.

She only had gone back to get her mother's belongings and stayed for a meal at her father's request.  That was all she could recall.  What was going on now?

The strong bodyguards held Celia tighter and brutally pressed her into the bridal car.

"This is Mr. Kane's order.  Get in the car now," shouted one of the bodyguards in a loud and terrifying voice.

Celia was taken aback.  She almost couldn't believe that this was her father's idea.

She was shocked and confused at the same time, trying to recall what had happened.

Two hours ago, her father, Adrien Kane, told her that he had accidentally found her mother's belongings in the attic.  He asked her if she wanted to come back and take them with her.

Chapter 1 His Sweetheart

On the bedside table in a big room, the phone kept ringing.  It annoyed Anne Luo to no end.

She struggled to grab the sheets from under her body as she snapped at the man next to her, "Kevin Fu, you–" Before she could finish her words, the man made her groan in pleasure.

She didn't even have the strength to glare at him anymore as she gritted her teeth.

It was as if her entire body had softened underneath him like a bag of putty.

The man slowly got off of Anne's body.  He smiled lazily before reaching out to pick up the phone on the bedside table.

"Honey, I'm coming soon.  Are you waiting for me in the living room?"  There was a short pause before he nodded.  "I'll take a shower first, okay?  Love you."

The man beside her was incredibly tall with a muscled physique.  His tight muscles were charming and sexy, especially with the sweat running all over his skin.  There was something about his eyes that was soft and kind.  They were filled with love and affection,

but Anne Luo knew for a fact that those feelings weren't for her.

Chapter 1 A WINTER'S DESPAIR

Katty paced the sitting room of her small apartment in Brooklyn, New York, her footsteps muffled by the thick carpet but still echoing loudly in the silence.  It was late November, and the room was bathed in a soft, wintry light filtering through the frost-covered windows, casting long shadows that seemed to dance along the walls.

Her arms were wrapped tightly around herself, as if to ward off the chill that seemed to seep into her bones.  She felt old, older than her years, as if the weight of her illness and the memories of her failed marriage had aged her beyond recognition.

As she paced, her mind drifted back to happier times, to the early days of her relationship with Mark.  She remembered the warmth of his smile, the way his eyes sparkled when he looked at her, and how she had believed, with all her heart, that they were destined to be together forever.

But fate had a cruel sense of humor.  The man she had loved had slowly, almost imperceptibly, changed before her eyes.  The fairy tale life they had built together had crumbled, revealing a harsh reality of lies, betrayal, and shattered dreams.

Chapter 1 Congratulations

"My child!  The letter’s here!"

Raven was playing chess with her godfather when she heard Nanny Rong excitedly shout at her from just outside the garden.  Looking up, the girl could only blink as the woman handed her the letter.  Meanwhile, Senior Choi looked at his little Raven, who seemed to be oblivious to what was just handed to her.

"Come on,” Nanny Rong impatiently egged on.  “Open it up already."

"Why don’t you give it to me and I’ll read it for the rest of us?”  Senior Choi chuckled as he waved at the nanny.  Looking at his goddaughter, he noted that she was still a bit tense.  “It looks like our little Raven can't handle the suspense."

At the instruction, Nanny Rong immediately passed the letter on to Senior Choi, while Raven was still a little shocked at what was even happening.  As her godfather quietly read the letter, she silently observed her surroundings, still unsure of what to do herself.

Chapter 1 Back For Divorce

Scarlett's POV:

I checked the time again and sighed.  It had been one and a half hours since I flew in, and I had lost count of the times I had glanced at my watch.  My husband, Charles Moore, was nowhere to be found.  He was supposed to pick me up from the airport.  But he must be with his girlfriend right now.  I shook my head and smiled bitterly at the thought, stood up, and dragged myself and my luggage out of the airport.

I married Charles three years ago.  But shortly after our wedding, I received some good news from my dream university abroad.  I was accepted to one of their programs, so I left to study there.  Charles and I had not seen each other for three years.  While I was away, he was spending all his time with the woman he truly loved.

Now, I was finally finished with my studies and I came back home.  I wanted to end our nominal marriage.  I decided it was time for me to stop hoping for things that would never happen.

On my way home in a cab, I sent Charles a message that read, "We need to talk."

Before long, I was standing inside our empty house.  I set my luggage aside and headed to the living room.  I sat on the sofa and waited.  The house looked and smelled like no one had lived in it for years.  Our wedding photo was still hanging on the wall.  It offended and saddened me at the same time.

Chapter 1 1.  Happy Birthday

EMMA’s POV :

“Happy birthday, bitch!  Welcome to the club!”

I could hear Tiffany’s voice all the way from the living room.  Within moments, the front door flew open and my two best friends came barging in.

“Happy birthday Emma!”  Carrie cheered loudly, she was holding a small red velvet cupcake with a single candle on top.

“Make a wish!”  Tiffany ordered and I complied.

I closed my eyes and made my little wish.

“Tonight will be my special night,” I said in my head.

When I opened my eyes and blew the candle, my two best friends clapped and roared happily.

“Aren’t you guys being a little loud?  It’s only 10 AM in the morning,” I said as I covered one ear my hand.  Thankfully my parents are both at work already, otherwise they’d say something too.

“And aren’t you being a little too underdressed?  It’s 10 AM!  We gotta go, there’s much to do before tonight,” Tiffany replied.

She had a point.  She was referring to the fact that we’d be driving down to Oxford to visit my boyfriend Zach at Emory today, and I was still sitting on my couch in my PJs.

For my birthday today, I told my parents that I didn’t want a party, I’d much rather get a car instead.  So, yesterday my dad brought home this gorgeous blue 2010 Ford Mustang convertible as my birthday present.

Chapter 1 MR. CEO

“Get out of my sight you incompetent thing!  Mr. Clark screamed, holding the broken pieces of his most expensive vase in his trembling hands.

The maid, Camille, stood far apart, shaking visibly and most importantly, waiting.  Waiting for the words that would determine her next line of action.

She had committed the most unforgivable act and she knew that Mr. Clark would never consider the fact that she had been the family maid for several months.

Then she remembered that Mr. Clark did not like to repeat himself, so she already knew her fate.

Taking one last glance at the fury in Mr. Clark's eyes, she scurried away holding back the tears in her eyes.

"I will consider the fact that you have served us for several months and that my kids love you.  But never forget that these are the only reasons you are still here.  One more strike and you are out!  Do I make myself clear, Camille?!"  Mr. Adrien warned, his bold voice resounding throughout the room.

Camille shivered a little, before answering.

"Ye…yes, sir Clark.  Thank you so much" she nodded, tracing the lines on her hands.

Mr. Clark was ruthless and she was lucky that the very few people that mattered to him loved her.

Chapter 1 Pregnancy And Divorce

"You're pregnant, ma'am.  Congratulations!"

Cheryl Naylor walked out of the hospital in a stupor, but the doctor's remarks continued to play in her head.

When she glanced at the pregnancy test report in her hand once more, her face creased into a sudden smile.

It was the third year of Cheryl and Jarred Fuller's marriage.

They wed not because of love but to fulfill the last request of Jarred's grandmother.

However, Jarred was a wonderful husband once they were married, doing everything a spouse should do.  He made sure Cheryl lived a good life and took good care of her.  Every year on their anniversary, he would ask his assistant to send Cheryl a gift.

He treated her with the utmost respect and dignity that a wife deserved.

It seemed to everyone else that they were the sweetest and most loving couple.

However, it was a far cry from reality.

Cheryl kept to herself that Jarred did not utter a single "I love you" to her in the past three years they spent together.

Chapter 1 Great Humiliation

In the Phoenix City.

After spending half an hour in the AY Jewelry Store, Sherry Xu finally decided to buy a necklace the shop assistant had suggested.

However, before she could give her bank card to the shop assistant, an arrogant female voice came from behind her.

"This necklace doesn't look very striking.  However, it's unexpectedly a limited edition...  I'll take it then!"

The woman's voice was sweet and feminine, but it had an arrogant tone to it that was enough to make anyone feel annoyed.

The woman walked over to the shop assistant, her high heels clacking on the marble floor, and stood beside Sherry Xu.  The smell of her perfume gently wafted into the air.

Hearing this, Sherry Xu was stunned for a moment, and wrinkled her nose with distaste.  Without casting a mere glance at the woman, Sherry Xu handed her credit card to the shop assistant.  "Wrap this up, please,"  she said.
