Stronghold Plus Noah

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.

L'Héritière contre-attaque

Sharon était une personne ordinaire, alors que son mari, Wallace Harris, était un homme prometteur et séduisant. Sa famille était l'une des familles les plus prestigieuses et les plus riches de New York. Épouser Wallace était un accident. Pendant leurs trois années de mariage, Wallace n'avait jamais couché avec Sharon. Sa famille l'avait également constamment persuadé de divorcer de Sharon. C'était la fête d'anniversaire de la vieille matriarche de la famille Harris, et tous les jeunes de la famille Harris avaient offert les cadeaux les plus chers possibles pour rendre la vieille dame heureuse—tous sauf Sharon. Elle avait demandé à emprunter de l'argent à Madame Harris pour l'ancien majordome, Oncle Smith, car il n'avait pas d'argent pour payer son traitement médical. Mais comme prévu, la famille Harris l'humilia lorsqu'elle fit sa demande. "La famille Harris n'a jamais eu de parent pauvre comme toi. Ne te présente plus jamais devant moi ! Wallace aurait dû épouser Crystal. C'est certainement une jeune femme qui est digne de se marier dans notre famille !" dit Madame Harris. "Connais ta place et sors d'ici. Ne reste plus dans notre maison. Comment le grand-père de Wallace a-t-il pu être si idiot pour marier une femme pauvre et inutile comme toi à mon fils ?!" dit June, la mère de Wallace. "Ce n'est que quelques millions de dollars, et pourtant tu es si pauvre que tu dois emprunter à notre famille. Comment une femme comme toi mérite-t-elle d'être avec Wallace ? Si c'était Crystal, elle ne nous aurait certainement pas autant embarrassés !" Cette nuit-là, Wallace tendit à Sharon une carte bancaire, qui contenait des millions de dollars. "L'entreprise se développe, donc je n'ai pas beaucoup de liquide. Tu peux utiliser ceci pour aider Oncle Smith." Face à l'hostilité de la famille Harris, Wallace déclara, "Puisque je l'ai épousée, elle est ma responsabilité. Qu'elle soit riche ou pauvre, Sharon est ma femme." Ce n'est que lorsqu'un étranger s'est approché de Sharon un jour que celle-ci apprit qu'elle était la fille d'une famille très prestigieuse, éligible pour recevoir des biens d'une valeur d'au moins dix milliards. Elle possédait soudainement la plus grande entreprise de New York et une carte bancaire contenant des centaines de millions de 'monnaie de poche'. En un clin d'œil, son identité avait changé. Elle n'était plus la belle-fille pauvre que la famille Harris n'appréciait pas. Au contraire, elle était devenue la personne la plus prestigieuse de New York !

Daddy's Comeback: From Ruins to Riches

Synopsis of Daddy’s Comeback: From Ruin to Riches Noah Lancaster, a once-successful billionaire, awakens from a five-year coma to a life he never expected. After saving his wife, Lilian, from a life-threatening accident, he is betrayed by the woman he trusted most. While he was unconscious, Lilian divorced him, stole his fortune, and secretly raised their triplet daughters alone. At the age of five, his daughters are unaware of the man who once was their everything. Now, Noah is faced with the heart-wrenching task of reconnecting with his children while grappling with his feelings of abandonment and anger. With the help of a mysterious system that rewards him for acts of fatherly love, Noah begins to rebuild his life from the ground up, gaining wealth, power, and influence through his love for his daughters. Yet, there is more at stake than his fortune. Each of his daughters—Ava, the mischievous one, Emma, the responsible older sister, and Isla, the withdrawn and cold-hearted one—have their own emotional scars. While Ava and Emma begin to open up to him, Isla’s walls remain high, as she struggles with deep-seated pain and mistrust. As Noah battles Lilian’s manipulation and works tirelessly to rebuild his relationship with his daughters, he faces both external and internal challenges. The more he learns about the struggles his daughters have faced in his absence, the stronger his resolve grows to become the father they need, even if it means sacrificing his own desires for their well-being. Through small moments of progress, including Isla’s hesitant first steps toward reconciliation, Noah begins to realize that love and patience are his true sources of power. As he works to heal his family, he must decide whether to seek revenge on the woman who destroyed him or put his energy into mending the broken bonds with his daughters. In the end, Noah’s journey is about more than just wealth or revenge—it’s about finding redemption, healing old wounds, and discovering what it truly means to be a father. With every chapter, Daddy’s Comeback: From Ruin to Riches unveils a gripping tale of emotional growth, heart-wrenching choices, and a powerful testament to the strength of a father’s love.
