failed success stories

Having traveled to America in the year 1862, this was the beginning of a dream, the finest of times. What constitutes a true master of success? Having some notable descendants hardly counts for anything. To build an Oil Empire alongside Rockefeller To place Carnegie on the throne of the steel magnate To help Ford propel the industrialization of automobiles worldwide To lead Edison to monopolize the future of the electrical industry To be an Angel Investor for Morgan's capital Hear this, applause!

On the day of receiving the marriage certificate, Nora Northwood broke up with her boyfriend and, for the sake of the dowry of 188,000 dollars her stepfather and mother demanded, she impulsively married a stranger. She viewed the dowry money as a loan, working hard after marriage to pay off the debt, hoping to divorce as soon as it was cleared. However, her husband, who initially despised her, suddenly began to subtly flirt with her. She tried hard to stay indifferent but was pinned down on the bed by him when he was drunk. "Wife, aren't my abs sexy? Don’t you want to touch them?" She really did want to touch, but if she did, could she still get a divorce? How could someone like Lily, just a humble aromatherapist, be suitable for a billionaire husband?

Having been reborn in the high school graduation season of 2008, Li Yuan found himself back at the moment when he confessed to the school beauty... Bai Weixi: "Thank you, being liked by you is an honor for me, but I don't want to be in a relationship right now." Li Yuan promptly took back the gift he had presented: "Then give me back the gift I gave you." Bai Weixi, with her beautiful eyes wide, looked at him in disbelief: "Li Yuan, what do you mean?" "You've already rejected me, yet you still want to keep my gift?" "But we are good friends!" "Heh, like I'm short of good friends? What I'm short of is a girlfriend, you get it?" Watching Bai Weixi, disheveled in the wind, Li Yuan turned to ask: "By the way, could you give me your best friend's phone number?" Bai Weixi fumed with anger: "Li Yuan, what are you trying to do?" Li Yuan just shrugged nonchalantly: "Nothing much, she's prettier than you, I've decided to pursue her instead."

I recently started a new book as a re – and – better – run of this book's concept, titled: I AWAKENED A DIVINE CURSE In a world where one's worth is determined by Archons—godlike entities who watch over everything—the least you can hope for is to get picked by the most lowly of them. Raith was chosen by the Archon of failure and death. Having emerged from one of the three greatest family, he was forced to leave the family and began a lonely journey of being a Hero as he has always wanted. Hero–that was the only way Raith could redeem himself and be acknowledged by the world. But this Archon is just too useless! However, everything changes on the day when Raith dies for the first time.

[A Story of Male Lead Abuse · A Rebirth Novel] What is love? Young and ignorant, Annabelle Linton spent her entire life to understand that it was an obsession. Once fallen, it's impossible to break free. It can give you life, and it can also bring you death. After her rebirth, she wore a smile on her face, but her eyes were filled with ice. A friend once asked her why she loved him so much. She fell silent, then casually changed the subject without answering, but a dazed look flickered in her eyes. Perhaps it was because the years went by too fast, the world was too harsh, and the road was too difficult to walk alone, and she just wanted a home... **** There were only two kinds of people Mr. Grant hated most in this life: those he hated, and Annabelle Linton. But there was never a reason for hating Annabelle Linton, and he never looked for one. But later, he thought about it. Was it perhaps his confidence that she would never leave, no matter what? But reality later told him that he was wrong. In this world, is there really anyone who would never leave? [This novel's main focus is on the male lead's suffering. The male lead appears to be a jerk, so patience is required. He unknowingly hurt the female lead for many years. After her rebirth, the female lead stays away from him, and the male lead is completely tormented. In the later parts of the story, the male lead will have all the reactions you'd expect to see, such as suicide attempts... But the ending is a happy one. This book isn't exactly a doting romance or a gratifying romp, but it's certainly not a tragic tearjerker. If you enjoy stories that focus on the male lead's suffering, then I think you'll like this one. If you prefer sweet and fluffy stories, please check out my other book, "My Love for You, an Incurable Disease".]

CLICHES LIST: TOWER ✓ DUNGEONS ✓ CONSTELLATIONS ✓ A cliche story of a man, Russell Moon, who has been reincarnated inside his own novel – an unpublished one at that, if that even makes sense! Being in a new world that he was familiar with, he began to uncover the mysteries behind his reincarnation even after trying his best to avoid getting involved, knowing the clear ending of peace if he just let the main characters do their routines. However, he also discovered what he later called "Untouched Elements" These elements could be said to be translated into the saying, I didn't know this shit!
