Noah Porter

Lolos dari Mantan, Diculik oleh Saingannya

Selama tiga tahun terakhir, Ariana Ari Harlow telah memberikan segalanya untuk suaminya. Mereka menikah karena saudara perempuannya memilih untuk lari pada malam pernikahan, karena ia percaya rumor bahwa Nelson Corporation bangkrut. Ari mencintai Noah sejak usia 16 tahun, ia pikir ini adalah mimpi yang menjadi kenyataan. Namun, dia tidak tahu bahwa saudara perempuannya telah menggali perangkap untuknya, dan ini bukan awal kehidupan baru, melainkan neraka baru baginya. Ia terpaksa menghentikan pendidikannya sebagai dokter karena Nyonya Nelson yang terhormat tidak bisa memiliki tangannya tertutupi darah. Ari menyetujuinya. Untuk Noah, ia menjadi istri yang sempurna yang merawat mertua dan suaminya. Namun, yang menanti dia tidak lain hanyalah penghinaan, suaminya malu padanya dan ibu mertuanya berpikir bahwa saudara perempuannya, Ariel, lebih cocok untuk anaknya. Namun, Ari bertahan. Dia berpikir suatu hari dia akan dapat menghangatkan hati suaminya. Namun dia memergokinya berciuman dengan saudara perempuannya! Patah hati, Ariana memutuskan untuk bercerai dengan suaminya, tapi entah bagaimana dia malah terlibat dengan Nicolai. Musuh dan saingan suaminya. Mereka tidak ditakdirkan untuk bersama. Namun Nicolai tampaknya tidak peduli dengan rintangan yang menumpuk di hadapan mereka. Bahkan, dia bertekad untuk masuk ke dalam kehidupan Ari dan membakarnya. Dalam keadaan mabuk, suatu kali dia memegang lehernya mendekat ke dinding pub kumuh, “Kau boleh menyangkal sebanyak yang kau mau, putri, tapi kau menginginkanku.” Matanya melirik dada Ari yang naik turun dan matanya semakin gelap, merahnya tampak tak terkendali, posesif seolah dia ingin mencabik jiwa dari tubuhnya dan menyematkannya ke dalamnya sendiri. “Taruhan jika kupandang, kamu akan basah untukku.” Panas membara di pipi Ariana saat dia mendengus, “Diam.” “Buat aku,” kata Nicolai saat dia menumbukkan bibirnya di bibirnya. Ciumannya membakar jiwa Ariana, dan kehangatannya menyengat kulitnya setiap kali mereka bersentuhan. Ia berpikir bahwa kesalahan terbesarnya adalah terlibat dengan Nicolai. Namun, Ari segera menyadari dengan cara yang sulit, Secara harfiah, diinginkan oleh mimpi buruk seindah itu jauh lebih buruk daripada sebuah kesalahan. Dan situasi menjadi rumit ketika suaminya menemukan kebenaran tentang segalanya. “Temak hatiku, Ari,” kata Noah saat dia menempatkan moncong pistol di mana hatinya berada. “Karena hidup tanpa kamu adalah hidup yang tidak kuinginkan, jadi tembaklah aku atau kembalilah. Aku memohon padamu.” Sekarang Nicolai telah memberinya pilihan, akankah Ari jatuh cinta dengan dia dan melompat ke dalam kehidupan yang penuh dengan bahaya? Atau akankah dia kembali ke suaminya, Noah, yang telah ia cintai sejak ia berumur 16 tahun? Dan akankah Ariana menghindari bahaya yang mengintai dalam kegelapan, menunggu dia untuk melakukan kesalahan dan kehilangan segala sesuatu yang berharga baginya? Akankah dia menemukan kunci dari semua rahasia yang mengikat dirinya dengan Noah dan Nicolai serta takdirnya yang rumit? ******* Potongan: “Ini semua tentang uang, bukan? Ambil itu dan hilang,” Dia berteriak sambil melemparkan kartu hitam ke wajah Ariana. Ariana tidak percaya dengan telinganya ketika dia mendengar suaminya atau calon mantan suaminya menghina dia seperti ini. Tiga tahun. Ariana Harlow memberikan Noah Nelson, tiga tahun dan namun ketika dia memergokinya berciuman dengan saudara perempuannya yang lebih tua, Ariel—— ini yang dia katakan kepadanya. “Saya akan menceraikanmu,” Ari menyatakan dan pergi. Dia pergi tanpa sepeser pun tetapi Ari tersandung ke Nicolai. Musuh dan saingan suaminya, pangeran Mafia kota Lonest, bajingan terkenal karena kecenderungan kekerasannya. Pertemuan malang itu meletakkan dia di jalur Nicolai, dan begitu saja dia menatapnya. Pertama kali mereka bertemu, Nicolai memintanya untuk mengundangnya makan malam. Kedua kali mereka bertemu, dia memberinya sejuta dolar. Ketiga kali mereka bertemu, dia menyatakan, “Kamu akan terlihat bagus di pelukanku, bagaimana menurutmu putri?” ********

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.
