A pesar de su frialdad habitual, se enamoró de su cálido toque solo para terminar decepcionada y traicionada. Cuando el amor se torna en oscuridad, se convierte en venenoso y consume el alma. La ingenua Arabella evolucionó. —Gracias por convertirte en mi esposa —fueron las últimas palabras de su frío esposo antes de morir, acompañadas de una sonrisa que nunca antes había adornado sus labios. Ni en el día de su boda. Y ni siquiera en el nacimiento de su único hijo. El Emperador Ferdinand, a quien Arabella amaba tanto, mató a su hijo. Ella se convirtió en una villana y juró venganza por su amado hijo. Durante una década, utilizó todo lo que pudo para hacer pagar a Ferdinand. Hasta que finalmente… ¡cayó en la ruina! Con su venganza completa, la vida de Arabella pronto terminó con su esposo muerto en sus brazos. Pero el destino no había terminado de jugar con ella. De repente, estaba de vuelta hace dos décadas justo después de su boda. ¿Era una maldición o una bendición? No importaba. Porque solo había una cosa que necesitaba hacer. —¡Te arruinaré también en esta vida! —Era su odiosa promesa consigo misma al darse cuenta de que había renacido. Pero en su segunda vida, a Arabella inesperadamente se le otorgó el don de descubrir la verdad. ¿Quién estaba equivocado y quién tenía razón? Solo el tiempo lo dirá.

Wenyan leyó un libro en el que un personaje secundario que compartía su nombre era una falsa heredera. Después de que la verdadera heredera asumiera su posición, la impostora intentó asegurar su lugar en la familia adinerada drogando al hijo mayor y haciendo un hecho consumado de un arroz cocido, solo para ser desenmascarada por la Familia Shen y terminar suicidándose en la desesperación. Wenyan estaba furiosa de ver tal final. ¿Cómo no se podría sobrevivir sin el respaldo de una familia adinerada? ¿Acaso la familia no le había proporcionado una casa de lujo y un sinfín de artículos de lujo? Solo vender esos le reportaría decenas de millones. ¡Ella era simplemente un caso perdido! Si ella fuera la Wenyan del libro, habría renunciado a su posición y simplemente habría vivido relajada como un pez salado! Pero cuando despertó de su sueño, realmente transmigró al libro. Fiel a su palabra, dejó de conspirar. De la noche a la mañana empacó sus maletas, vendió su casa, coche y bolsos, y buscó un trabajo. Toda la Familia Shen notó el cambio en Wenyan, su hija adoptada. No solo se había mudado obedientemente, sino que también nunca causó problemas de nuevo. Aún más extraño fue que ahora podían ver sus pensamientos más íntimos. «Papá, Mamá, nunca quise usurpar su nido, pero los resultados de la prueba de ADN de la verdadera hija tienen problemas. De hecho, ella es incluso más falsa que yo, la supuesta heredera.», pensó. Padres de la Familia Shen: ...... Entonces, la 'hija' perdida y encontrada fue expuesta como una impostora y llevada por la policía para ser interrogada. «Hermano mayor, ese compañero de colegio tuyo no es bueno, es un espía corporativo, el hijo ilegítimo de los archienemigos de la Familia Shen.», pensó. El hijo mayor de la Familia Shen: ...... Después, el compañero fue sorprendido robando documentos confidenciales y también fue llevado por la policía para ser interrogado. «Segundo hermano, eres una persona tan pura y noble, no debes estar con la hija de la Familia Qin, ella solo te está usando, su corazón en realidad está puesto en alguien más.», pensó. El segundo hijo de la Familia Shen: ...... Gracias, lo investigaré. «Y tercer hermano, cuarto hermano......», pensó. Al final, nadie podría haber predicho que la hija adoptada menos distinguida de la Familia Shen se convertiría en la mimada nuera.

Eun Ha? " the manager called, " Please take a menu to that table and get their request." deep down she would have wanted someone else to do it but this was the boss orders, who was she to reject. she took the menu and walked straight to the table, her heart was racing very fast, she couldn't phantom exactly why. good evening Sir, she said bowing her head politely as she offered the menu what would you like to have? they looked at the menu and pointed what they wanted, she went out from the table and brought the cocktail they had ordered, she turned back to leave when the voice of one of them stopped her in her tracks. "wait" her heart stopped for some split seconds and continued beating with difficulty. I know you, you're Mr Lee's daughter he said with and an evil grin that revealed his tobacco colored teeth. she froze as the tray she was holding dropped to the ground. "I was right, it's them" The restaurant on the ground floor was filled with people mostly the elites, some of them were tourist, others were there for a business meeting and others, conferences. the sound of the dropped tray caught the attention of most of them, making them glance at Eun Ha for some split seconds. He continued, The deadline is tomorrow evening don't forget that. Eun Ha had wanted to say something to them, perhaps, beg them but the words never left her throat. Eun Ha stood there for about two minutes, "will you get us our meal or will you just stand there?" the other muttered harshly. she knew they were evil men, above the law. falling into their trap was the most dangerous place a person could be. she resigned to begging for more time. one glance, Mu Chen could tell what was happening "X force" he whispered underneath his breath. they had quite a reputation and were feared by many. They feared no one and could illegally obtain what was theirs if necessary. He looked at the helpless young lady on the floor, he knew there was no way they'd let her go, no matter how much she begged. he didn't know this girl, yet he felt a need to protect her. he went out and waited in his car in the parking area. "Wait," he said with a deep voice. Chae won was surprised he would have sworn a few minutes ago that he was in a hurry to leave. The loan sharks finished their meal as she handed them their bills, "How ironic, we're paying for your service and you owe us," he said humorously as they both burst into laughter. Eun Ha felt a knife pierce her heart, she had never felt so much humiliation in her life. she followed them outside the building trying to plead with them for the last time to see if they'd cave in and give her more time but they just walked straight to the car and drove off. Eun Ha stood outside the hotel, in despair, her father was going to die, this men were ruthless, the cloud had darkened earlier, soon few drops of rain started falling, but she was in no hurry to leave as if it were possible for the rain to wash down all her pain, she stood outside staring blankly into thin air while it rained on her, soon her hair was separating into clustered strands, tear a freely flowed down her cheeks, she felt like screaming, she felt helpless, Just then she couldn't feel the raindrops on her skin she turned as her eyes met with a tall handsome young man holding a big black umbrella. Mu Chen looked at her sorrowful eyes, he could see the pain in her soul through them. "I know who they were, and I can roughly guess what it is" Eun Ha was confused, "what did he know? who was he? why is he being kind to me?" she asked one question after another in her head. "How much?" he asked with a king like voice. "10,000 dollars," she said as her lips trembled, "How did you...?" this time she was starting to get suspicious. I have an offer for you, I'll clear the debt but you'll carry my baby"

What have I done? Why is this happening?" All she wanted to know was the reason why he was staring at her dangerously and nothing more. He moved closer to her until she could feel his breath hard on her skin. She tried moving away but his hand became tighter to hers. She couldn't breathe well either. Unknowingly, his lips were on hers. He began to kiss her slowly but hostilely. At first, she was shocked at his action and leaned to him to accept the kiss but she didn't reciprocate. On second thought, she becomes stunned and starts to struggle with him. This time, the kiss became rough. He kissed her aggressively and hungrily like he would swallow her up whereas she struggled with him. Seeing that he wasn't going to stop, she used her fingers to pinch the nape of his neck which made him groan before retreating. She pushed him away landing a hot slap on his cheek. "You brat!" She sneered. "Are you insane?! What's wrong with you?" She asked hastily but no response came from him. He just stood like a lad who could not understand what she was saying.

The story starts in the busy city of Hong Kong, where Ruth Lee is leading a life of privilege, replete with all the luxuries and protection provided by her powerful Mafia family. She suspects something is wrong, but the truth comes crashing down when, after a family argument, Ruth wakes up to a house full of dead servants and her family nowhere to be found. Scared and desperate at first, Ruth finds, behind a hidden safe left by her father, an address in Seoul, South Korea; a credit card; and papers so she could travel. She finally settled in South Korea out of necessity in search of her answers. On landing, it is Frank Xia, a very-feared Mafia lord previously associated with the mafia family. Frank, owing to old debts to her father, agrees to help Ruth find her family-but only if she proves capable of surviving the brutal world of the Mafia. As Ruth trains with Frank and his crew, she learns about her secret Mafia lineage and all the power dynamics that come with it. It is a tough, grueling training that pushes her to her limits, but slowly, Ruth morphs from pampered princess into Mafia heiress. The complication in their mission would be the budding attraction between Ruth and Frank, and as their feelings for each other deepen, so does their determination to find her family-and to unmask the formidable foes against them. On her way, Ruth faces betrayal, dark secrets, and surprising alliances. Now she's supposed to learn her way with a world she never understood, and the dark legacy of her family. Tension between her and Frank heightens while running life-threatening missions, and a passionate romance blooms in the midst of chaos. But the road to the future is filled with perils, as Ruth's uncle, a powerful Mafia baron with a deep-seated grudge against her family, seeks to destroy everything they've built.

The story is the continuation of the Runaway of the powerful Marshal. It’s about Alex Lee and Leah Shen love story.

In a world of mysteries and supernatural creatures, Lee, a female detective in her middle age must stop this madness alongside with her friends before it destroys the entire world.

This world’s so damn big, it’s got every flavor of weird on the menu. Yo, guess what? One measly cigarette almost sent my soul on a one-way trip—straight-up “see ya, wouldn’t wanna be ya.” Freaky, right? Next thing I know, I’m in this twisted fun-house of a place: neon shadows, folks twitchin’ like they missed their meds, and unspeakable nasties lurkin’ in every corner. Some smug voice pipes up: “Welcome to Hell, bro. Clear a hundred floors and you’re free. Ain’t nobody done it in ten thousand years.” Yeah, yeah, talk to the hand. But check it—your boy’s still here, breathin’ and jokin’. If I hadn’t busted out, you think I’d be shootin’ the breeze with y’all? As for the how, the what, and the “did that really happen?”—that’s homework for you. Grab a flashlight and start diggin’, ’cause the fog ain’t liftin’ itself.
