My Boss is My Secret Husband

Lyla Knight thought she knew her husband, the enigmatic and stoic Noah Anderson—CEO of a billion-dollar empire and the golden bachelor of City A. Their marriage was a quiet agreement, a union arranged by their families to ensure Lyla's safety and happiness. For two years, Noah was away expanding his business, and Lyla pursued her dream of becoming a singer, believing they were just two polite strangers bound by a contract. But appearances can be deceiving. Noah Anderson, the king of the business world, has always been a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Beneath his calm demeanor lies an obsession—a love so deep that he’s been silently protecting his innocent "little rabbit" from the shadows. When he finally returns, his carefully constructed facade begins to crack. “Sweetheart,” he murmurs one day, his voice a mix of pleading and determination, “I let them think I didn’t love you enough to show you off. But now, can we go public? Let me slap their faces with the truth.” Even the king of hell is willing to make puppy eyes to convince his wife to acknowledge him as her husband—a sight that leaves his assistant Cheng fleeing the office in shock. But Lyla’s world is truly shaken when she stumbles into Noah’s private library and finds a hidden treasure trove: old, secretly taken photos of herself from years before they were married. Her heart pounds as she backs away, only to collide with the man himself. His familiar scent surrounds her as his deep, velvety voice whispers near her ear, “It has always been you, sweetheart.” Caught between the shy, gentlemanly facade she believed in and the possessive, passionate man he truly is, Lyla must navigate the truth about her husband and their secret marriage.

I'm A Poor Boy, But It Turns Out I Have 7 Beautiful Billionaire Sister

Nineteen-year-old Li Wei has known nothing but hardship. Orphaned by his mother’s death and abandoned by his debt-ridden father, he scrapes by in a crumbling house, juggling college and part-time jobs to survive. But when his father returns with a shocking revelation—he’s married into one of the wealthiest families in China—Wei’s world turns upside down. Overnight, he’s thrust into a glittering mansion owned by his enigmatic stepmother, Madam Yuna, and her seven larger-than-life daughters—each a powerhouse in her field: a tech CEO, a superstar actress, a decorated military officer, a genius scientist, a fashion mogul, a chart-topping singer, and a Ivy League professor. To Wei’s bewilderment, they welcome him with open arms, desperate to spoil the “little brother” they’ve always dreamed of. But adjusting to a life of private jets, designer wardrobes, and paparazzi scrutiny isn’t easy for a boy raised on instant noodles and thrift-store shoes. As Wei navigates snobbish elites at his new elite college and fends off media speculation that he’s a “charity case,” he clashes with his guilt-ridden father and wrestles with his identity: Is he still the boy from the slums, or a Yang family heir? Yet beneath the diamond-studded surface, Wei discovers unexpected warmth. His sisters—though fiercely overprotective—teach him to embrace his worth, whether he’s coding with the scientist, surviving a couture makeover with the fashionista, or learning self-respect from the soldier. But when a crisis threatens to expose Madam Yuna’s past and divide the family, Wei must choose: flee back to the safety of his old life, or fight for the sisters who’ve rewritten his destiny. A heartwarming tale of class, belonging, and the messy magic of family. Perfect for fans of "Crazy Rich Asians" meets "The Brothers Sun", this story explores what happens when rags meet riches—and seven extraordinary women redefine the meaning of home.

Nope! I can't be the Villainess and Definitely not Male Lead's Mother!

So, I woke up on the day I was supposed to be executed. You know, normal Tuesday stuff. My head was chilling on a wooden platform, and there was this tiny blade dangling right above my neck. Cute, right? Just waiting to slice through and end my fantastic life. Naturally, I thought, "How do I get out of this mess?" And what genius idea came to mind? Pregnancy! Yep, I faked a pregnancy. And not just any pregnancy — I told the Emperor, the very psycho who ordered my execution, that I was carrying his child. Spoiler alert: I was definitely not. But hey, it worked! I kept my head attached to my body. However, when the universe is determined to mess with you, even a fake baby bump can't save you forever. I kept up the act for a whole month before finally running away. Ah, freedom! No more psycho Emperor, no more looming execution, just me, living my best fake-pregnancy-free life, laughing like I was finally out of a bad soap opera. Or so I thought. Because of course, luck had to have the last laugh. Somehow, I ended up being the mother of the male lead. You heard that right. The male lead. In this ridiculous story, I’m not even his real mother, but here I am, stuck inside the palace with a literal murderer, aka the Emperor, who — plot twist! — killed the male lead’s actual mom and turned her into a freaking energy crystal. And now, I'm supposed to save the day. Me, the villainess who's not even supposed to be here. How? No clue. But one thing’s for sure, luck and I need to have a serious talk. Screw you, luck!
