Resumen

She was asked.... "Aren't you afraid of Karma?" "Karma?" She smirked. "I am Karma bitch!" ********* If they were to rank the most ruthless beings in Country A, Kim Lisa was definitely among the Top Three. She had a new mission from her Mafia boss/ uncle; It was to become the bodyguard of one of the contesting Governor's playboy son. Though difficult, she took up the mission. Trying her best not to stab him to death whenever she saw him. But if she had thought his charms would not work on her, then she had gotten it all wrong! Because he liked her from the first day he saw her, and made up his mind to seduce her. ************ "It's called Regalia." Lisa said as she looked at the confused and frightened man.  "It was made from one of the most toxic flowers in the world. The poison starts eating up the wall of your stomach from the moment it's inside your body and within the first five minutes, you will feel like throwing up but nothing would come out... except tiny droplets of blood. And then, you'll know this isn't a joke." She said darkly and watched him begin to gag and gasp until he spat out blood. But she didn't flinch. This was her being meek. ************ But she met a really stubborn guy... "You are scared." He noted as he looked into her eyes. She scoffed in disbelief. "You're the last person I am afraid of."  Tom smirked before saying... "Yes, you are. You are scared you may cheat on your boyfriend with me. Scared you may fall for me. I can see it in your eyes."  'What's he saying right now? All I think about is killing him!' She said in her head but the look in her eyes was different. "And that's right." He continued... "You should be scared... Because whether you like it or not, it's going to happen" He said with a confident smile before using his thumb to graze the corner of her mouth. His eyes dropped from her eyes to her lips. She wasn't wearing a lipstick or gloss, but they looked glossy and tempting.... *********** NOTE 1: You may think it's a bit rushed at the beginning, but trust me, that's because there's more to come ahead. If you love mystery, then be ready to unveil some... Yours Sincerely *********** NOTE 2: *I do not intend to keep this book long or drag things unnecessarily. Those who have read my book (Hello, Mr Li.) can attest to that. I keep things simple. *You can follow my other stories: –HELLO, MR LI –MY CRAZY HOUSEMATE –IN LOVE WITH A KLEPTO *Please support me by voting, commenting, and sending gifts.

Chapter 1CHAPTER 1

The sound of Catholic hymns resounded in the old empty church.

Gradually, she approached the altar, dressed in a White Nun's habit with a rosary of the cross dangling around her neck.

In a kneeling position, palms pressed together, fingers pointed up to God and eyes shut, she prayed silently.

"Dear Lord.... It's Lisa again."

She intertwined her fingers together and continued to pray.

"I know I've got flaws. A whole lot of flaws."

"But even in my imperfection, I am made perfect before you."

She counted her words. They were slow. They were precise.

"And Lord, you said we should pray for our enemies. So, I am here for that again." Her hands tightened together.

"Let them perish. Let them bleed to death. Let them scream in agony but let no one hear them. Let them wish for death because living would even be more painful for them."

She paused again.

"But Lord, I won't ask you to do it for me. You are too mighty to deal with mortals. So Lord, I have come to ask for your forgiveness in advance. And I pray Lord, that the night be light around me- Even as it is to you. And let tonight...."

She slowly lifted her glazed eyes to look at the huge sign of the Cross in front of her eyes. "Become a success"

****

Sound of gunshots resonated all over the city. And also with the news of the Governor's demise.

CHAPTER 1

******

Mr Lin was a big man. But no matter how people tried to hold him down, he kept trying to pull away from their hold.

It was the first time anyone saw him cry.

In fact, it was the first time anyone saw him behave in such manner.

Jasmine had just come out from her room. She had been listening to the loud wails of people and once she saw how the crowd wept, she paused for a second to ask herself why those people were crying in her sitting room.

It was then she saw her father, Mr Lin. Being held down by a few men. He seemed like someone who was convulsing but no, he was actually crying.

She turned to the other side and saw her mother surrounded by some women who were also trying to stop Mother Lin from doing something crazy probably.

Her Aunt was also seated, crying her eyes out and swearing.

She saw people she knew and those she did not crying uncontrollably.

When she appeared there, no one dared come near her as she watched them all with dark eyes.

She was never friendly with anyone. Yes, they all even called her a dark child. Never had friends either.

People only sent their looks of condolence to her and she did not even bother to nod in appreciation.

The only one who would have actually walked towards her would have been her elder sister.

But she was the reason they were all gathered there.

Her sister was not there!

"So she really died?" Jasmine asked herself.

She knew she collapsed when she heard the news of her sister's death.

She had dreamt for hours that it was all a lie. She tried to convince herself that they were only trying to play a prank on her.

Never in her life did she think her sister was going to die.

Or no, get murdered rather.

Zoe had been an influential person. In school, clubs, church, anywhere at all.

Most of them there, were people her sister had helped one way or the other —either through words of encouragement, financially, or impacting knowledge in them.

And her sister had been her only friend.

Zoe had also been their parents' favorite. She did not mind about that, neither was she jealous because she also liked her sister more than herself.

"I know who did it"

Jasmine had thought she said those words to just herself. But with the hatred she had spoken it with, everyone heard her clearly.

There was a deadpan silence as everyone turned to look at the Ten years old Jasmine.

"Jaz... What are you talking about?" Her mother first asked in a shaky voice.

Mother Lin was not a very young person.

She had given birth to Jasmine in her early forties so there was a really wide gap between the ages of herself and her sister.

Her sister, Lin Zoe was 22 years old. Or rather, was supposed to clock 22 in a week.

She was very smart and had graduated from college when she was 19.

She started up a few foundations from when she was 16, which were greatly supported and sponsored by their parents since they were quite rich but not the type to say they made a significant impact on the society.

Jasmine had known much about Zoe's life. Even though she was little and unapproachable, she knew a couple of things about her older sister.

"Sister Zoe did not deserve to die just like that. It was not an accident. Someone killed her. Probably that woman's son"

"Jaz!" The woman she pointed at shouted at her.

"How could a little girl like you spout something like that." Her mother shouted at her.

She turned to look at her parents and stated matter of factly.

"It was that woman's son. She killed sister Zoe. I am certain of that."

"Take her back to her room."

Her father was the first to give the order and before she knew it, she had been carted away to go back inside her room where she began to cry.

She had seen that woman the moment she went outside.

Mrs Zhu was not really her family's close friend. But she came by during several ocassions.

That was how Zoe met her son Zhu Hansong.

Jaz had watched how her sister behaved for the past couple of weeks. If her parents had been smart and observant enough, they would have probably noticed also.

She was not going to let it slide just like that.

From where she was, she could hear her parents apologizing to Mrs Zhu, who was obviously still furious by her accusations.

'Stupid people' Jaz thought as tears continued to flow down her little cheeks.

"Are you more concerned about sucking up to her than your daughter who died unjustly? You are all stupid. Very stupid!"

Jaz screamed really loudly and soon turned violent as she began thrashing everything she could lay her hands on inside her room.

It was exactly the reason people stayed away from her. She had really been a violent kid.

----

She woke up with a start and her eyes popped open. Cold sweat was all over her body and she felt her body continue to shake controllably.

"Damn it! It's been fifteen years already. Why can't this stupid dream go away!"

It was either this particular dream, or the other one where her parents got killed and they were beginning to piss her off.

She frowned before reaching for the pack of cigarette on the side of her bed.

As she sat up, she felt pain all over her body. Especially on her stomach.

And when she looked down, she saw it was covered with a bandage.

She also saw other scars on her exposed body which reminded her of the kind of life she led ever since her parents died. The wild tattoo of a viper extending from her upper left arm down to her lower arm seemed to make her confirm she was still alive, and in her real body.

She used a hand to comb her hair backward and puffed out smoke without minding how she looked; Waking from a strange dream, dressed in only a sport bra and short, belly and hand covered in bandages and lips chapped.

She even felt hungry but she needed that cigar to be able to calm herself after that dream. It had been going on for years and that had been the only thing that could soothe her.

The door opened and in came a man who was probably in his sixties.

His head was bald and his eyes were dark. He walked like the devil himself, if not because she was used to seeing his face, she probably would have been scared to death.

"Lisa. You've been sleeping for three days. You were really careless this time to have been gotten"

Lisa. It was what she was called now. Kim Lisa. Or rather, Lisa was the name she's been called the longest.

She lived by different identities, and she was used to it already.

She forced herself to stand up and bowed in apology. "It would never happen again"

"The mayor died." He informed her.

"Get ready. We have a new mission for you."

A corner of her mouth curved into a smirk as she anticipated what it would be.

It was probably time to get to proper business.

And things just got more exciting when a magical creature appeared in front of Phantom's soul, giving her a ridiculous mission in exchange of regaining her body back. "Make him fall in love with you within 100 days!" The flying creature said, pointing his small paws at Nathan who expressionlessly stood next to her sickbed.

How would she do that??! ****** Excerpt: Nathan grabbed her by her neck. "Don't play tricks with me, Phantomflake." Nathan's cold voice reverberated inside the room, his eyes burning with rage. But Phantomflake just smirked at him, pressing her hands against his chest, her fingers teasing him. "You can't kill me, Nate. Just admit it. You've already fallen for me." With one swift move, Phantomflake pulled his shirt, closing their gaps as she crushed her lips against his lips. Surprisingly, Nathan just found himself responding to her. He lost!

Reborn Heiress: Taking Back What Is Rightfully Hers!

Ella always believed she was living a blissful life with a loving father, stepmother, and a doting husband. Even her half-sister seemed to treat her with kindness. But it was all an illusion. They were all after the vast inheritance Ella was set to receive from her grandmother! The so-called family affection and love were fake. Her stepsister and husband had been secretly together for a long time, plotting to seize Ella's fortune. On her birthday, they poisoned Ella’s drink and pushed her into the ocean. Ella has been reborn! Given a second chance at life, she won't fall into their tender traps again. Instead, she will rise and fight back, reclaiming everything that rightfully belongs to her! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello everyone, this is my new book. Feel free to check it out: Married First, Loved Later: A Flash Marriage with My Ex’s "Uncle." : At her wedding banquet, a man claiming to be Selina's lover stormed in, brandishing so-called intimate photos and causing chaos. Selina immediately saw through this as a scheme orchestrated by her half-sister, Natalia. However, Selina's fiancé, Ryan, not only refused to believe her but also went out of his way to defend Natalia. It turned out that Ryan and Natalia had already developed feelings for each other in secret. Everyone—Selina's father, stepmother, and Ryan's parents—knew about their affair, except for Selina, who was left in the dark. Taking advantage of the situation, Selina's father suggested swapping brides, proposing that Natalia replace Selina and complete the wedding. Ryan's family not only didn’t object but wholeheartedly supported the idea. That was the moment Selina finally realized the cruel truth: her family and Ryan's family were nothing but wolves in sheep’s clothing! "Cancel the engagement? Fine. But let it be clear—I’m the one rejecting you, you two-timing, spineless excuse for a man!" Selina declared with unshakable confidence. Her gaze then swept across the room, landing on an elegant and distinguished man. She vaguely remembered him as Ryan’s younger uncle. Walking over, she boldly asked, "Sir, how about getting married?" The man raised an eyebrow, finding her audacity intriguing. "It would be my honor, madam," he replied.

One Wild Night

Lucinda Perry, a social recluse and a workaholic, makes a pledge to herself to go all wild on her twenty-fifth birthday and even score a one night stand if she gets her long deserved promotion at work. Few days to her twenty-fifth birthday, she gets promoted to not just a higher position but to the head office in a different city. Having to spend her birthday night in a new city, she goes to the club where she meets a very handsome stranger, Thomas Hank, who offers to be her one night stand after catching a glimpse of her dare-to-do list, which included having a one night stand. Thomas Hank, after having been used by several ladies in the past, is bent on getting the lady of his dreams who would love him for himself and not his wealth. So when he meets the cute and naive Lucinda Perry at the club, he decides to keep his true identity from her and find out if she was worth keeping. ***Excerpt*** What is more entertaining than a crazy side character? Say hello to Sonia and Bryan. Sonia's heart stopped beating for a second, and then different thoughts started flying right through her head at that same time. Bryan Hank? Her celebrity crush was kneeling right in front of her and asking her to be his wife? Was he mistaking her for someone? Was it possible this was a skit, or maybe this was like one of those celebrity pranks, and there were cameras around, waiting to capture her make a fool of herself? Or perhaps she was dreaming? Sonia wondered as she looked around them, but all she saw were curious onlookers. "Please! Be my wife and make me the happiest man on Earth," He said in a very loud voice that caught the attention of everyone. Her editor who she had been waiting on for over an hour because he was trying to sign a deal with a movie producer who was interested in one of her stories, showed up at that moment, "Sonia, you know Bryan Hank?" Her editor asked in genuine surprise as he watched the scene before him. It seemed like an hour had passed since Bryan went on his knees, but it had only been a minute. Bryan knew no lady would be crazy enough to accept such a crazy proposal, and even if any were, paying her off and calling off the whole thing would be easy since all he wanted was the scandal that could come from this. The headlines were either going to be about his rejected Marriage proposal or his supposed engagement, which would be enough to let Sophia off the hook. "Yes!" Sonia said as she bobbed her head excitedly and extended her finger for him to wear her the ring. "Yes?" Bryan asked in confusion when he heard her response. "Yes! I will be your wife and make you the happiest man in the world!" Sonia said with a giggle and wiggled her fingers until Bryan slid the ring down her finger. Surprisingly the ring was her exact size, and it sat on her finger like it was made just for her. The sound of applause erupted all around them as Sonia stood up with a big smile on her face and embraced Bryan before kissing him right on the lips. Bryan was slightly taken aback by her boldness but quickly recovered since this was his game, and he had to play along. He was the one who had approached her first, after all. So when she tried to break the kiss, he held her chin and slowly nibbled on her lower lip before parting her lips with his tongue and sucked on it in a teasing manner, eliciting a moan from Sonia. Sonia felt light-headed. This was too good to be true. It just had to be a dream. How else could she explain that one moment she was seated at the lobby of a hotel waiting for her editor, and the next she was engaged to her celebrity crush and was kissing him right here in the open?

Ex-fiancé's internal OS: Is it too late to reconcile now? - Those times were tough! Despite being treasured by her three big brothers and parents, everything from food to cloth and even soap required coupons... Even living frugally couldn't alleviate the miserable condition. Looking at the black mush in the bowl, Lin Tang fell silent, “......” Thankfully, she had a system! Need anything? Just check in to get it. - Many years later.

She responded in a stern manner, “Nonsense! Don't believe those rumors. We're civilized people and can't be that barbaric!”
