LOGINAfter seven years of marriage, my husband grew tired of our quiet life and took a college student as his mistress. That fragile, pitiable girl held Alain Roth so completely he didn't come home for an entire month, no matter how I begged. On our son's third birthday, I came to their villa, holding the feverish child and pleading for him to return. Inside, he stayed lost in passion with her. Jeff Roth drew his last breath in my arms while their pleasure echoed through the night. At the funeral, Alain held me and wept, swearing he would return to the family and love only me. I agreed, driven solely by Jeff's dying wish. Four years later, a video from his old kindergarten surfaced, showing Alain with a radiant Mabel Flores and a three-year-old boy. The boy smiled brightly at the camera, lifting a trophy high. "Mom, Dad, we're the happiest family in the world!"

Mira really didn't expect that her friends would throw her a surprise birthday party in a nightclub like this. When her blindfold and ears were removed, she was trapped and couldn't escape from there. She wasn't a woman who liked the frenetic pace of discos like this but right now she could only surrender as everyone excitedly sang happy birthday to her.
Mira looked at her friends who were shouting loudly in the midst of the invitees who were handsome men who seemed to have been invited specifically to enliven the party they had made.
The motivation was predictable. They wanted them to be the center of attention and the most beautiful women among all the men in the club.
After that, Mira was immediately led by her friends to blow out the birthday candles which were deliberately shaped like a tall lighthouse so that Mira had to climb onto a chair that had been prepared by her friends.
In the end she could only comply with their request. She took off her high heels and climbed onto the chair they had prepared to blow out her lighthouse candles. She folded her hands as she closed her eyes for a moment and made a wish in front of her super-sized birthday cake.
After Mira finished saying her wish, Jenny, Reni, Tari, and Santi immediately spun confetti together. A burst of colorful paper glitter rained down on Mira in an instant.
Mira smiled happily at the festive party her friends had prepared.
They surrounded Mira and wished her a happy birthday with their characteristic friendship that has always been excited and compact so far.
Mira smiled amusedly but also saluted to see the joy and efforts of her close friends to make her happy on her birthday.
"Thank you," Mira said as she hugged her friends and smiled happily.
The event certainly didn't end there. In the end, they deliberately made a game that was Mira's weakness, namely the game of remembering names. Because she always lost, Mira had to accept punishment by drinking high alcoholic drinks until she was completely drunk and could only surrender to the game they designed next.
They asked all the invited guests that they had selected, lined up and made a big circle in front of Mira then they asked Mira to judge who was the most handsome man from all the other handsome men to be the king on her special day.
The prize they prepared was unbelievable!
A brand new car will be theirs if they are chosen and can give Mira a hot night!
Mira is a widow with one grown-up child. Her husband died when her son was only five years old but despite having a beautiful face and also being good at managing companies, Mira never intended to find a replacement for her late husband.
She always focused on taking care of her children and her business rather than listening to their suggestions for a new companion. All her friends' matchmaking attempts always failed because Mira always managed to avoid the moment the meeting was arranged for her.
"You don't need to set me up with any man. When my husband died, my heart died with him. I have promised that I will focus only on taking care of my baby and our company," Mira said at the time.
"You're crazy, how can you live without sex! Sex with a great climax keeps us women young!" said Jenny as she glared at Mira.
"Without a partner I can still enjoy the thrill of sex that always gives me a satisfying climax!" exclaimed Mira as she cleared her throat with a flushed face.
"Hah!" all her friends exclaimed with high levels of curiosity. "How is that possible?" she asked, immediately approaching and surrounding Mira.
Mira whispered in her friends' ears while holding back amused laughter.
"Of course sex aids have a different sensation from the warmth of a man's body, Mir!" exclaimed Reni while scratching her forehead.
"It's the same for me and I get it all the time," Mira replied nonchalantly.
Back to Mira's birthday party...
Mira, who was already half-drunk, followed her friends' games without feeling shy or embarrassed. She walked slowly picking and choosing. She selected one by one the people standing in front of her and she unconsciously approached one of the male guests and pointed at him without hesitation and firmly.
"Jenny! I want him!" Mira said shamelessly while smiling seductively at the man of her choice.
Jenny and her friends immediately rushed to stop Mira. "Mir, he's not a participant but a real guest at this club, just choose something else," persuaded Santi while coaxing Mira who seemed to be shaking her head against what Santi was telling her.
"I don't want anyone else! I want him, only he will be my king tonight!" Mira exclaimed drunkenly. For some reason, she felt that he was very similar to her late husband, so she chose him!
Rendi observed the woman who was pointing at him at the moment with a serious face. The half-drunk woman was very beautiful and captivated him. Rendi should have refused and told her that he was not the invited guest but seeing his friends who wanted to approach the woman, Rendi immediately pulled Mira on his lap.
"I will be the king tonight," Rendi said confidently.
A sigh of disappointment was heard from all the participants who had registered. Although the man chosen by the current party queen was indeed handsome, the man chosen by their party queen was not a young man but a man who was half old although he still looked dashing. The party queen should have chosen one of them instead of the man who was not an official participant.
Seeing the chaotic and noisy situation, Jenny went up to the table boldly. "For those who have not been selected, don't be disappointed, tonight you can eat and drink as much as you want! The bill will be covered by our Party Queen!" Jenny exclaimed confidently.
Cheers and applause erupted in the club as Rendi's friends cheered on their cold friend.
"Yeah, yeah, I'll pay for everything!" Mira exclaimed with a drunken giggle.
Mira's exclamation was met with applause and cheers from everyone in the club.
As agreed, they were led to the elevator by Mira's four close friends who had stayed next door to celebrate their success in making Mira feel the warmth of a man.
"This is your room key, but before you enter. You have to drink this wine," Jenny said, holding out the special wine they had prepared beforehand.
"Wait a minute, does your friend already know your current plan?" asked Rendi trying to figure it out.
"Don't even think about it! Your job as King tonight is to satisfy our friend and make my friend feel the beautiful sensation of making love!" Santi interrupted while holding back his laughter.
"Yeah right! Tomorrow morning we'll see the mess you've managed to make in the room. If it's great you can take the prize downstairs," said Tari with a chuckle.
"Now, drink up," Jenny said again urging her king Mira to drink the wine they had prepared.
"What kind of wine is this?" asked Rendi, trying to smell the wine the women had given him.
"Wine of pleasure, why? Are you afraid?" said Reni quickly challenging the king of her friend's choice.
"I'm not afraid," Rendi responded in a relaxed manner.
"Good, then drink up," said Tari quickly helping Rendi sip their special wine.
That afternoon, a disheveled Mabel cornered me in a café.She glanced around nervously, relaxing only when she confirmed Alain was not with me.I sized her up discreetly. She looked like she had just gone through something terrifying. Fear was evident in her eyes, and her mental state seemed precarious."I'll give Alain back to you," she said, her voice trembling. "In exchange, I want one million dollars. Once I have the money, I'll disappear forever and never interfere in your marriage again."I was unimpressed. "I don't have a hobby of recycling garbage."She frowned. "Stop pretending. $900,000 is my final offer. I know you can afford it."I stood up to leave. "Keep whatever you stole. I'm not interested."She panicked, grabbing my arm. "How much can you offer?"I shook her off, picked up the glass of water on the table, and splashed it straight into her face. "Keep the garbage you took!"Enraged, she snatched another glass and tried to splash me back. Just then, a steady ha
"Are these enough to make rose petal jam?" Erik held out some freshly plucked petals in his palm.I examined them happily, my fingertips accidentally brushing his skin. His face flushed a deep red."Marie!" Alain charged in, grabbed Erik by the collar, and punched him hard. "How dare you covet my wife?""Alain, stop!" I reached out to separate them, but they were already tangled in a fierce scuffle.Moments later, Erik relied on his years of training to subdue his opponent. Alain kept cursing even in defeat. "You'll pay for seducing my wife!""Uncle Erik, are you alright?" I asked worriedly.Alain's curses stopped, and his eyes widened. It was normal that he didn't recognize Erik. The latter rarely appeared in public, not even at my wedding.Erik stood up and dusted off his clothes. "I'm fine."His gaze fell on Alain's bruised and swollen face. In the next moment, his body went limp, and he collapsed into my arms. "My head is spinning."I quickly supported him. "I'll call a do
"I..." Mabele stammered, struggling to form a response.Alain snatched the luggage from her hands, opened it, and saw the pile of valuables inside. His eyes narrowed, and pain surged through his chest. "Why?"Mabele lowered her head, speechless. Alain reached out to grab Jonathan, but someone else beat him to it.The man scooped up Jonathan and planted a kiss on his cheek. "My son indeed. You look just like me!"Jonathan looked at Mabele in confusion. A glance showed the obvious resemblance, especially around the eyes and brows."What did you say?" Alain swayed, colors draining from his face.The man spoke haughtily. "I didn't know Mabel was carrying my child while flirting with others. Now that I know Jonathan is my seed, I have every right to take him home and claim my heritage." Alain looked at Mabele, who stepped back in trepidation. Clearly, she knew this man.His body began to tremble with rage. All this time, he had been raising another man's son, while his own flesh an
A metal object hit the floor with a resounding crash. Alain stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, his face dark and brooding."Release the news about her affair," he commanded. "I'd like to see whether she values the Perez family's reputation or that pretty boy."His assistant nodded, fear written across his face.Mabel gently rubbed Jonathan's face, urging him to go with the assistant. Once they were gone, she wrapped her arms around Alain from behind. "Don't get so worked up. Marie is just jealous and throwing a tantrum. Just don't be so nice to me when she is around."Alain turned around, covering her mouth to stop her following words. "What's wrong with me treating you well? You're kind and gentle. I want to give you the best. Do I need her permission to care for whoever I like? Who does she think she is?"A happy smile spread across Mabel's face as she leaned against his chest, her hand soothingly stroking him. "I know you're a good man. You paid for my education and gave me
With feigned anxiety, Mabel pulled Jonathan from Alain's arms and apologized to me profusely, "I'm truly sorry. Jonathan is too little to understand. Please don't hold it against him. I never wanted to ruin your family. Just please let him see his dad once in a while."I watched with cold detachmen
I froze. "My loss? Yeah, Jeff is my child. You don't deserve to be his father!"Alain was rendered speechless, and Mabel bowed to me."Please let us go," she pleaded dramatically. "Jonathan and I can move to the countryside. Just don't make things difficult for everyone. I shouldn't have fallen in
A flash of reluctance crossed Alain's face. He glanced at me, keeping his hands at his sides.Jonathan pouted, his eyes glistening with tears. "Dad, don't you love me anymore?"Mabel met my gaze and shivered. Her hand quickly clamped over Jonathan's mouth. "I'm sorry, but the kindergarten requires
My husband, Alain Roth, didn't come home until deep into the night. The moment the lights flicked on, I covered my swollen, tear-stained eyes.He paused, then walked over. "Still awake?"A faint scent of baby formula wafted through the air, freezing me in place. It was the exact kind our son, Jeff
