The Deception of a Thousand Roses

2026-03-04

I clutched the copy of the marriage alliance agreement, my fingers trembling as I slammed it down in front of Samuel. "A wedding with a thousand roses? It was all a lie to fool me, wasn't it?" His brows furrowed, his tone still laced with his usual haughtiness. "Nicole, stop being childish. My relationship with Melody is just a stopgap measure." "A stopgap measure?" I laughed, but tears streamed down my cheeks uncontrollably. "What am I then? A toy for you to amuse yourself with when you're bored? Or a pawn to keep you grounded?" He stepped forward, reaching out to touch me, but I dodged him sharply. "I never treated you as a toy," he said, his voice dropping, tinged with a hint of impatience. "Once the project stabilizes, I'll get a divorce." "No need," I stepped back, my gaze firm and resolute. "Samuel, I'm leaving." His eyes turned cold instantly. He blocked the door, his tone carrying an unquestionable sense of oppression. "You're not going anywhere." My heart constricted, but I forced myself to stare back at him. "Dare you imprison me?" A cold smile tugged at the corner of his lips as he advanced toward me slowly. "To keep you by my side, there's nothing I wouldn't dare to do."收起

Chapter 1 of "The Deception of a Thousand Roses"

The day my world fell apart, the sky was a leaden grey, and even the wind carried a biting chill. When the lawyer pushed the bankruptcy agreement in front of Father, I stood beside him, clearly seeing the tremble in his fingertips. "Is there really... no other way?" Father's voice was hoarse, as if sanded raw. The lawyer shook his head, his voice heavy: "Mr. Lynn, all assets are already mortgaged; this is the only way out." Father picked up the pen, the tip hesitated over the paper for a long time, and finally, he signed his name. My clenched fingers dug deep into my palm, the metallic sting spreading through my nerves, but it couldn't touch the sharp ache in my chest. "Dad..." I tried to comfort him, but my throat felt clogged, and no full words would come out.

Love from a Deal

The first time I met Bruce River was in Nanny Zimmerman's dark, cramped room. His sleeves were rolled up, his wrists slender, his eyes filled with the despair of his sister close to death. I offered him that almost humiliating bargain: "I can save your sister, but you must be my bed partner." He was silent for a long while, then hoarsely replied, "Fine." At that moment, I did not know that this sordid entanglement would corrode my life for the next twenty years.收起

The Lie I Told to Save You

"I'm buying this house, two million." Lance Woodward's voice rang out in the empty living room, buzzing loudly in my ears. Three years apart, he wore an expensive coat, his eyes sharp as ice. "Lance Woodward, are you crazy?" I clenched my fists. "This house isn't worth that much." He pulled at the corner of his mouth, full of sarcasm. "What, afraid I can't afford it?" "I just don't get it," I met his gaze. "You clearly hate me, and why are you helping me?" He turned to leave but paused at the door, turning his face slightly, his voice low: "Harper Ferguson, why did you break up with me back then?" My breath hitched. He fixed me with a...

The Forbidden Love

I once thought I'd spend the rest of my life with Leo, but everything went off track after he brought Norman home. "This is Norman; he just turned sixteen. His mom was my best friend in college—she got into a car accident and passed away." "I'm sorry, I won't cause trouble. I can stay in the guest room, and cook for myself..." With his innocence and youthfulness, he gradually made me fall for him. I hated him, pouring out coldness and hostility, yet I couldn't resist his deep affection. "You're disgusting!" I once threw my nightgown fiercely at his face, but he only endured it silently. Three years later, he showed up again, no longer the naive boy he used...

End of Seven Years of Bond

That day, the sunlight in the Aquarium was like molten iron, burning my fingertips until they trembled. I held Mike Collins' hand as if clutching a bomb ready to explode at any moment. Behind the glass wall, the mermaid's swaying tail was beautifully deceptive—until my son grabbed a claw hammer and smashed it against the giant screen. "Stepmom is in the water! She's drowning!"

The Wolf in the Fold

I once thought I would be the happiest woman in the world, but when my good friend Vivian begged me tearfully to take her in, the gears of fate quietly turned. "Harry, Vivian is so pitiful—let's help her." I never imagined that this plea would mark the start of a nightmare. As time went on, I noticed Harry acted strangely toward Vivian, and he often smelled of the perfume Vivian used regularly. What pushed me into the abyss was the mother-child photo Vivian posted online. "Harry, I'm carrying your child! Yet you accompanied another woman to her son's sports day?" Even after Vivian's son Andy went missing, everyone pointed the finger at me. "Quincy, did you kidnap Andy? Hand him...
