Tóm tắt

Secrets! Secrets! And many more secrets! This was something that everyone on the planet, rich or poor, had in common. This also applied to my family. As I grew older, I became more interested in delving deeper into trying to learn for myself what my parents were hiding from me. I had not imagined, however, that the farther I delved into the issue, the more questions I began to ask myself. I began to consider how heinous and horrifying all of these family secrets would appear to the public if they were ever revealed. And why was I tempted and curious in the first place? But what else could a normal son have done in such a situation? Should I have minded my own business? That was completely impossible. But, considering how things had evolved by the time everything became clear to me, I began to wonder. Why was this the case? My curiosity side got the best of me and placed me in a position I still regret to this day. Would I choose the same road if I had to start from scratch? I am still puzzled about the answer.

Chapter 1PROLOGUE

Something has been bothering me lately.

I don’t know how to explain this weird feeling I am having. But every time I looked at my parents, there was that foreboding feeling that everything was just wrong.

Guys, don’t get me wrong, but being a young adult myself and having the ability to think and analyze for myself, I just can’t help but feel as if they are hiding from me.

I understand that everyone has their secrets to keep.

I also have a few things that I have hidden from them from a young age. Like how I secretly stole my mother’s money from her purse and used it at school to buy my friends some snacks.

Like how I took my dad’s condom from his pocket and analyzed it at school with my guy friends during some weekend outing.

There are so many things I have done. Not just to my parents, but to others as I grew up. And all this remains a secret. At least to the people that matter the most to me.

Since I have my secret, I expect them, since they are much older than me, to even have dozens of them.

However, something still keeps on bothering me, and honestly, this feeling is truly eating me slowly from the inside.

I don’t live with my parents at the moment.

Because of university, my parents kindly sent me overseas for my studies. And if I have to see them, I can only do this during the holidays. And that’s if I am not having some internship at that time.

If I have free time, and I am not working during that certain holiday.

I will need to change my flight twice. And travel for over twenty hours just to go home and see them.

This isn’t something bad, actually.

Home is always the best. No matter where you are.

The last time I visited them was over a month ago.

I suddenly started to sense that there was something wrong. Something was definitely happening on that side. And I wanted to know what exactly. I was that curious.

My parents aren’t the kind to be given the best award for a loving couple.

Just looking at the way they acted around each other as I grew up, I could tell that those two weren’t married because of love.

There was a reason that led them to be tied together. Fortunately, they liked each other enough to not tear against one another during the years that I have known them.

They lived harmoniously, whether with me or their respective families.

I have never heard anything bad regarding my parents, and this made them the model parents adored by everyone, especially in the area where we lived.

When other husbands and men were busy going around cheating on their wives. And wives doing the same thing on the other side. My parents were the kind that knew how to wake up, go to work, and come back when it was time.

Of course, when they were free, they would meet up with their friends and do whatever they did there, but at the end of the story, none of my parents brought home any children from the outside or had never had there been any complaints about them.

My family is very rich, or I can say that my parents are very rich, which makes me very fortunate, unlike other children.

Not only was I born rich, but I was also born as the only child and son of my parents. I grew up without any siblings’ competition, though being honest, this was tiresome and lonely at some times.

Apart from my parents, who were already busy with their work, I didn’t have anyone at home except for the house helpers.

And sometimes when my relatives visit, I know that I won’t be alone. Anyway, skipping this part, I will come back to where I talked about how I am rich and an only child.

I am twenty-one years old, and I live in Hillside Garden Estate, a very fancy and low suburban area where only the rich and famous live.

It was also the kind of neighborhood where on each street there will be like four to five houses depending on how huge the houses were. From all this, I can sincerely assure you that my parents are loaded.

As for what they do. Actually, that will be a story for another day. But to be honest, I am still trying my best to tabulate and really investigate what exactly those two are because what I used to believe before I started having all these suspicions might not be true.

I might need to start fresh again and analyze everything to at least grasp what those two are hiding from me.

If I were to ask them, I know the kind of answer that they will give me and truthfully, there is no way that I will like it.

I am the kind of person that once I get curious and unless I get to the bottom of the story, I will never rest. I will see it through, even if it means getting my heart broken in the process.

Some would ask why I would do something so silly and maybe dangerous considering how the future was uncertain, but I can tell you that is how I am wired. I have always been like this from day one and nothing will probably change anything.

So, getting back to my parents, who seem to have some secrets from me, I have been thinking for a while and finally decided that I will, no matter what, slowly try to unveil whatever they are hiding.

Since I am their only child, I should at least know. We suffer together and enjoy whatever benefits that come together.

I know that my parents look at me and see a child all the time. Every time I try to help, they will tell me that my time hasn’t come yet and that I am a child and I should just concentrate on my studies, date some girls or boys if that’s what I am into, and just spend the money.

I want them to approve of me, and see me in a new light and maybe if I were to know what they are hiding, they will be willing to draw me in their inner circle.

But the more I thought about this, especially in the past month, the more worried I find myself.

What if they are in some cult? What if they have been sacrificing our relatives, some less important people, just to have everything that I enjoy so much and are unwilling to let go of?

What if my parents weren’t the kind of people I thought they were? If that was proven to be true, how was I going to face all this?

So many questions linger in my head. Fear creeps into my mind and seeps into my body every single second I think of this and yet that tingling curiosity of mine just won’t let this go.

I guess I will just walk on the path that I have chosen and see where it will lead me.

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?

Sawyer asked, focusing on the street ahead. Fifteen minutes later, Sawyer's vehicle stopped in front of Abigail's house. He was stunned beyond words when he saw the gates. After a few seconds, Sawyer, trying to suppress his shock, turned to her.  "Is this where you live now?" he asked. "Yes, I'm staying here..." Abigail answered excitedly. She wanted to invite him to stop by, but she remembered the rental contract rule stating she couldn't bring her friends or family onto the rooftop. "Can I stop by your house?"

Sawyer was impressed to hear her words, "Aah, so there's a rule like that?" "Yeah. That's why I can't let you enter. If you want to meet me, we can meet at the café. Or, you can call me if you pass by this area." "Sure." ... As soon as Abigail stepped out of the car, Sawyer's smile vanished, and his expression slowly darkened. His sharp eyes remained fixed on Abigail as she entered the small door. Instead of rushing to move his car, he took out his cell phone and made an urgent call. "Hello, Ethan. Tell me, how is Abigail Snow living in my house?" Sawyer asked calmly but firmly. _____ How to contact me: >> Instagram account: authorpurplelight >> FB Page: Author_Purplelight >> Join my Discord Server: https://bit.ly/purplelightserver _____ Notes: The book cover belongs to the author.

However, apart from the head of the household, Captain Kang, the rest of the family were all sweating on Kang Li's behalf, worried that the delicate and frail treasure of the house (sister, young aunt) wouldn't be able to handle the grievances of being a stepmother and might hurt herself from the stress. The villagers who knew about the Kang family's situation gathered together, spewing sour words and gossiping, especially those who bore no good will and were just waiting to see the Kang family's downfall. Yet, Kang Li's life after marriage was not only blissful, but her husband doted on her, her stepchildren adored her, calling her mom the moment they opened their mouths. They clung to her like people possessed, and the wife (stepmother) had them following her every step. A certain flabbergasted system: I thought the host I was bound to was bronze-tier, but it turns out she's actually king-tier. - Luo Yanqing was naturally indifferent, with only work on his mind, but somehow, he started to find himself looking forward to holidays, although he rarely managed to go home once a whole year.
