the prenup

When I was five months pregnant, my boyfriend forced me to sign an agreement. He said, “Chloe Sterling, the entire bride price has to be returned. We’ll only have a wedding, no marriage certificate. All my assets will go to my parents.” I was stunned. I hadn’t even had time to tell him that I’d gotten rich betting on soccer. Later, when I pulled up to his place in a luxury car worth millions, that scumbag actually cried and begged me to take him back. I glanced at Xander Al-Thani standing beside me, rose on my tiptoes, and brushed a kiss against the corner of his mouth. He froze for a second, then immediately seized the initiative and deepened the kiss. A moment later, I pushed him away, breathless. “That’ll cost you extra.” With a casual wave of his hand, he shoved a limited-edition black gold card into my palm.

She walked into the divorce lawyer's office thinking she understood the deal. Five years of marriage. A prenup she signed on the day before the wedding because he promised it was just a formality. A marriage that started with champagne and ended with silence. When she signed those final papers, Katherine Hayes had nothing. No house. No savings. No company stock. He kept it all. His lawyer smiled like he'd won a war. Katherine promised herself she'd never need him again. But the universe has a twisted sense of humor. Three years later, James Devereaux's tech empire is crashing. His company Devereaux Technologies is bleeding money. His board is calling for his head. His reputation is fracturing. He's making reckless decisions, surrounding himself with people who don't understand his vision, and running his company like a man trying to punish himself. He needs a financial advisor. Someone brilliant. Someone ruthless. Someone who won't be intimidated by his name or his money. His board recommends Katherine Hayes, the woman who built herself up from nothing after losing everything. The woman who took her divorce settlement of fifty thousand dollars and turned it into a multi-million-dollar financial consultancy. The woman he used to love. Katherine's first instinct is to say no. To laugh in the face of the irony. Then her business partner tells her something that changes everything. James is going to hire someone else. Someone mediocre. Someone who will let his company die. And watching him fall apart from the outside will hurt more than watching him fall apart from up close. So Katherine agrees to a six-month contract. What she doesn't expect is the way James looks at her when she walks into the boardroom. Like she's the answer to a prayer he's been whispering in the dark. What James doesn't expect is that the woman he was too arrogant to fight for is still the person who understands him better than anyone alive. Over the next six months, their professional relationship becomes a minefield of hidden glances, tension that could light fires, and conversations that expose the parts of their hearts they've spent three years trying to bury. But Katherine made a promise to herself. She won't fall for him again. She won't be the woman who signs away her future for a man who sees her as another acquisition. And James made a promise to himself. He won't ask her to choose him over her safety this time. The question isn't whether they can fix his company. The question is whether they can fix what they broke. And if they do, will Katherine sign the contract that matters most? The one that says she's choosing him, not because she has to, but because she finally can.

Perjalanan kematian dan reinkarnasi Suatu hari ayah menggendongku. Wajahnya dipenuhi tawa kebahagiaan. Ia tidak melepaskanku, menciumi seluruh bagian wajahku. Hingga di usia remajaku, ayah masih menggendongku. Kali ini wajahnya nampak lain, begitu banyak kesedihan yang menamparnya.

The priest, a symbol of nobility and sanctity. As warriors fight bravely on the front against the enemy, the priest stands as their strongest support. Whether through effective healing or chanting battle hymns to empower the warriors, a team with high-level priests is always the most powerful. "Arise, my most loyal companion! When others have fallen before the enemy's might, only the priest remains standing. As long as we are here, there is hope for life!" The priest, the most noble and delicate profession. We are the warriors behind the scenes, the heroes in the shadows, the war machines that don't need guns. We are the noble arbiters of victory! But we are not just the ones who stand behind the warriors. Priests can also stand alone, slay dragons, and destroy everything with a snap of our fingers!

I have a dream of flying across the skies on a jet, looking at the setting sun. I longed to fly, like a free bird. But my dream was crushed before I ever had a chance to plan it. As those I cared about vanished. People I'd begun to care about died, leaving me unable to do anything. I have to be strong. Stronger than these monsters. In his right hand, he's wearing a mettalic bracelet. "With this system," Shin reasoned, "it's not impossible." Shin yelled, "I'll show you that a dream should not be hindered!" A massive crater formed. All monsters in the area have been annihilated. Meanwhile, in the distance, a faint shadow can be seen. "You always surprised me, Shin," it said silently. And continued saying, "I continue to pave the way for you in the shadow, my friend." (Note: The narrative is a LitRPG that takes place in the modern world.)
