Two people loved each other. No, let me rephrase it. Two people never loved each other. They hated. But fate played the game and they were forced to get married to each other. Will this marriage full of hate ever amount to real love.

"Why are you here after so many years??" he asked. I could sense anger.
"I'm here.. And I'll stay here.. Its not your hotel mister" I retorted
He came near me and grabbed my waist. I tried moving back but his strong arms were not allowing me to.
"Please- please leave me," I said helplessly.
"Huh, so now you're scared?" he asked shamelessly.
"Please let me go!"
"Go..but you'll regret what you did Ms. Marie Smith"
"What-whatever.."
He left me and I ran away.
I ran away. He followed me. I couldn't reach the hotel room's door, and he locked the door.
"What's your problem, Mr. Adrien? Did I even say anything???"
"You'll regret what you did three years ago," he said.
He came to me. I started going back. He moved forward. I went back and now I was between the wall and him.
"Now where will you go?"
"You! Leave me!"
"And what If I don't!"
"....." I didn't have an answer. He's so strong. I'm nothing.
"Will you go to your boyfriend?"
"What boyfriend?"
"Don't act like that"
"I don't have anyone, Adrien. Please leave me"
"You know I love you"
"But I don't, Adrien. If you love me then why are you forcing your love on me!"
"I never forced you nor will I ever.."
"Just look at what you're doing right now"
He got away immediately as if he never wanted to force me.
"I'm sorry but I can't take it, Marie," he said in a low tone.
"What can you not take?"
"Loving you and being hated. Loving you and being betrayed" he said and started crying. For the first time, I saw him weak.
"I didn't betray you, Adrien, you did"
"I don't think this is the right time to talk" he said and went away.
I don't know what he's thinking. He betrayed me all these years and now he came and told me he loves me? Even he said that I betrayed him? Is he serious? I should be the one crying. I have no one in this world.
Why did he come so suddenly after complete three years? Did he know... How have I cut these years? Without him, without anyone? And now... He's here forcing his love on me. After what he did... I don't love him anymore. I hate him. I can't love anyone. My belief in love has totally vanished. And it'll never return. Never.
***************
I slept. I waited for the next day. Fortunately, there were no nightmares. Otherwise, every night was haunted. With his thoughts, with my parent's thoughts...
I went out. I'll tell you about me. After his betrayal, I became weak, and eventually, I became strong. I worked hard and became a businesswoman. My business is small, but it's what keeps me busy and happy, away from sad thoughts. I reached my office. I'm the CEO. This is a small company. But, everyone respects me and everyone is hard working.
"Mam, there is someone who wants to meet you," said Maya, my PA.
"Get them in," I said.
He came inside.
Adrien. Why does he not go away?? What is he doing here!
"Miss CEO, I have an important issue to talk about," he said in a formal voice.
"What are you doing here Adrien," I asked, quite angry and annoyed by being followed by him.
"Why did you did that, Marie, why?"
"We're at the office"
"Do you want me to come to your hotel?"
"I don't know, Adrien. Just go away. I don't want to see you"
"Answer me," he said in a low voice. I sensed that this was the calmness before the thunder.
"Adrien, this is not an appropriate place".
"I don't give a fuck about the appropriate place I just want to know why you did that to me!" he shouted. Everyone in the company heard it. We're not so rich to buy soundproof doors.
"Are you here to insult me, Adrien??"
"Don't take it that way"
"Just shut up," I shouted.
"Maya!" I called Maya.
"Yes mam?" she came inside and was quite scared by all that shouting and that harsh voice of him.
"Take him out"
She looked at him. I noticed something. She was shivering. Shivering from fear. He got up.
"You don't need to do that," he said calmly to me and Maya at the same time. He went out.
Why is he always like this? This can't go on. I have to solve this. Today.
I went out of the office. I told my PA to manage some work and also to inform me of anything important.
I went to my hotel room. I searched through my contacts. There he was. I called him, fearlessly.
"Why did you call me," he asked
"Come to my hotel. I want to talk to you" I said and cut the call.
I waited for him. Somewhere in my heart, I feared. I don't know why, but I'm afraid when he's near me. When we're alone. Oh god. Why did I call him? I'm stupid.
He came in five minutes. I opened the door.
"What is it, that you want to talk about"
"Don't follow me everywhere I go. Forget me. Please"

The cold boss of The Brown Association has suddenly turned warm for someone. That someone is none other than his own personal assistant. He never thought in his wildest dreams that someone who is not the richest, not the best, not the prettiest can steal his heart, but damn, for him, she is the most beautiful girl. He slowly fell for her so deep that he was ready to do anything to get her, and if not, then he will be broken. After many heartbreaks, he finally gave up on her. She reciprocated the feelings, but only for a few days. What was that, anyway? Continued working, he turned completely cold-even more than he was before-to everyone, including her.

In the eighteen years of her life, Brianna had endured relentless abuse from her family, living in constant fear. One fateful day, two dignified figures approached her and revealed a shocking truth: she was their long-lost daughter, heiress to the wealthiest family in the city-the Owens. Desperate for love and acceptance, Brianna hoped to escape her past. Instead, she fell victim to Cassie, a cunning impostor who manipulated their parents against her while feigning distress. Rather than forging a connection with her real family, Brianna found herself betrayed and isolated. When a car accident left Brianna in a vegetative state, she found herself able to listen to everything around her, though unable to respond. Bitterly, she realized her parents didn't care for her; they visited just once. A month later, Cassie visited, disconnecting the ventilator before leaning in to whisper coldly, "Goodbye, my dear sister. You shouldn't have come back. You are meant for that despicable, wretched family." Somehow, fate granted Brianna a second chance. Reborn and fueled by rage, she vowed to make everyone who had wronged her pay dearly. This time, she would seize the life that had been stolen from her.
Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.
My marriage ended at a charity gala I organized. One moment, I was the pregnant, happy wife of tech mogul Gabe Sullivan; the next, a reporter' s phone screen announced to the world that he and his childhood sweetheart, Harper, were expecting a child. Across the room, I saw them together, his hand resting on her stomach. This wasn't just an affair; it was a public declaration that erased me and our unborn baby. To protect his company's billion-dollar IPO, Gabe, his mother, and even my own adoptive parents conspired against me. They moved Harper into our home, into my bed, treating her like royalty while I became a prisoner. They painted me as unstable, a threat to the family's image. They accused me of cheating and claimed my child wasn't his. The final command was unthinkable: terminate my pregnancy. They locked me in a room and scheduled the procedure, promising to drag me there if I refused. But they made a mistake. They gave me back my phone to keep me quiet. Feigning surrender, I made one last, desperate call to a number I had kept hidden for years-a number belonging to my biological father, Antony Dean, the head of a family so powerful, they could make my husband's world burn.
The day my husband, a Mafia Underboss, told me I was genetically unfit to carry his heir, he brought home my replacement—a surrogate with my eyes and a working womb. He called her a "vessel" but paraded her as his mistress, abandoning me while I bled on the floor at a party to protect her and planning their secret future in the villa he once promised me. But in our world, wives don't just walk away—they disappear, and I decided to orchestrate my own vanishing act, leaving him to the ruin he so carefully built for himself.
Elena, once a pampered heiress, suddenly lost everything when the real daughter framed her, her fiancé ridiculed her, and her adoptive parents threw her out. They all wanted to see her fall. But Elena unveiled her true identity: the heiress of a massive fortune, famed hacker, top jewelry designer, secret author, and gifted doctor. Horrified by her glorious comeback, her adoptive parents demanded half her newfound wealth. Elena exposed their cruelty and refused. Her ex pleaded for a second chance, but she scoffed, “Do you think you deserve it?” Then a powerful magnate gently proposed, “Marry me?”
