The CEO’s Regret: You made me your lie, I become your Loss

Amara Piers is living the dream everyone double-taps on Instagram. For ten years, Sebastian Creed hasn’t just been her husband; he’s been her entire world. As the charismatic CEO of a global empire, Sebastian is the man who has everything, yet he acts as if Amara is his only prize. The handwritten morning notes, the spontaneous anniversary trips to Paris, the way he looks at her as if she’s the only woman in the room—it was the "perfect" marriage. Or so she thought. The facade doesn’t crack; it shatters. On a mundane Thursday morning, a stranger delivers a sentence that turns Amara’s fairy tale into a psychological horror story: “Ma’am, I’m sorry... but your marriage certificate and your child’s adoption papers are both fake.” In one heartbeat, Amara realizes she isn’t a wife, and she might not legally be a mother. The man she worshipped hasn’t just been keeping secrets; he’s been orchestrating a decade-long performance. As the walls of her high-end life close in, Amara must face a terrifying reality: Sebastian Creed didn't marry her because he loved her. He "captured" her. Now, the woman who was once his greatest treasure is becoming his greatest threat. To reclaim her life and walk away from her husband's child, Amara must disappear from a man who has the resources to find anyone, anywhere. But how do you run from a man who knows your every thought before you even think it? She was the woman he claimed to love. Now, she’s the one woman he can’t be allowed to keep.

Cats in captivity

Captive cats referred to cats that were kept in an enclosed space (such as an indoor house) and were not allowed to go out. This method of rearing had many characteristics: - ** From the cat's perspective: - ** In terms of personality **: If the cat itself is timid, such as a "social fear cat", it may be more suitable for them to be kept in captivity. Forcing them to take them out will cause stress. The cats that were originally reared indoors had already adapted to the indoor environment with a sense of security. On the contrary, if a cat that had been free-range since young was suddenly raised in captivity, it might not adapt. - ** Living habits **: The range of activity of the cats in captivity depends on the area of the house. For example, they can move around in the kitchen, bedroom, living room, etc., forming a state of one-day tour at home. They didn't need to look for food on their own. Every day, someone would feed them and provide them with clean cat litter. They lived a life where they opened their mouths when they ate and stretched when they woke up. Moreover, most cats in captivity were more dependent on their owners and might be more clingy. This was because they spent more time with their owners and felt that their owners were more like their own kind. - ** From a health perspective **: - ** Avoiding infection **: There are many sources of infection outdoors. For example, stray cats may carry skin diseases, parasitic diseases, etc., and captivity can greatly reduce the probability of cats getting sick and reduce the risk of contact with the pathogen. However, the environment in captivity was relatively closed and lacked natural breath and sunlight. Cats might lack sunlight and fresh air. In the long run, this would cause their physical functions to decline and they would be prone to diseases such as respiratory infections and obese. - Safety: Cats in captivity are less prone to accidents, and owners can take care of them at all times to prevent them from being bullied, taken away, or accidentally eating poisonous food. - In China, there are about 40 to 50 million pet cats, and about 70% of them are raised in captivity. In short, whether it was appropriate to keep cats in captivity was related to the cat's personality. It could not be said that captivity was cruel or beneficial to cats.

The idea that humans were kept in captivity as animals came from the zoo theory. According to this theory, Earth might be a "zoo" for aliens to raise humans. After the extraterrestrial advanced civilization sprinkled the "fire of life", it was forbidden to communicate with humans based on certain rules. Due to the huge difference in the level of civilization, humans could not perceive the existence of advanced civilizations. From the perspective of human behavior, humans, as the high-level intelligent creatures on Earth, would gather other low-level intelligent creatures to build zoos for viewing and research in order to satisfy their curiosity. Some scientists believed that Earth also had the characteristics of a zoo. There were many living organisms on Earth, and these living organisms (including humans) seemed to have lost some sense of "freedom" such as free travel in the universe. Therefore, it was speculated that humans and animals on Earth might be captive test subjects. However, this was only a theoretical conjecture at the moment. There was no conclusive evidence to prove that humans were really being kept as animals.
