Ang akala ko ay kilala ko na ang mga tao na nasa paligid ko. Akala ko tama ako ng pagbabasa sa mga tao, pero isa pala akong malaking tanga. Dahil iyong mga taong iniisip kong nasa panig ko ay siya pa pala ang ta-traydor sa akin. At iyong nag-iisang nagmamalasakit naman ay siya pang kinamumuhian ko. Aster, died because of me. Namatay siya para iligtas ako. At sa kahuli-hulihan niyang hininga ay mas inaalala niya pa rin ako kaysa sa sarili niya. He was my abductor. Ang akala ko ay ikinulong niya ako dahil gusto niya akong itali, kontrolin at ilayo sa mundo. But I was all wrong. Huli ko na lang nalaman na pino-protektahan niya lang pala ako. Pino-protektahan niya ako sa mga totoong tao na nananamantala sa katangahan ko. And it was too late for me to know the truth. After Aster had died, I faced the death itself too. Hindi ko kinaya ang pagka-konsensiya kaya naman tinapos ko ang sarili kong buhay sa pamamagitan ng pagtalon sa bangin. Yeah I died too. But instead of really dying, I found myself in the arms of Aster once more. Nakabalik ako sa panahon bago ko pa masira ang lahat ng plano niya. A second chance in life. Dahil doon ay babaguhin ko ang kwento ng buhay ko. Babaguhin ko ang naging ending ng istoryong binuo sa kasinungalingan ng mga taong pinagkakatiwalaan ko. Sisiguraduhin kong ako naman ang po-protekta kay Aster. Hindi ako papayag na mamatay ang taong tunay na nagmamahal sa akin, sa ikalawang pagkakataon. ᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐ All Rights Reserved @TwinkleBhernz ᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐᚐ

"They were supposed to silence the headlines, not start a story of their own." Lily Leclerc has spent her life mastering control - on the tennis court, in the spotlight, and as the fiercely protective sister of Formula 1's rising star, Charles Leclerc. But when a heated race leaves Charles' car tangled with a certain McLaren car, control is the last thing Lily has. She doesn't like Daniel. His grin is too quick, his confidence too sharp and his easy charm only fuels her fury. Their clashes spill from private words into public headlines and soon the world is watching. The solution? A fake relationship designed to quiet the storm. Only thing is that the more time Lily spends with the Honey Badger, the harder it becomes to keep the lines straight. Beneath his reckless exterior is a man far gentler, far more thoughtful than she ever imagined and he seems to see through every defense she's built. What begins as a necessary arrangement starts to feel dangerously real. Rivalry gives way to something slower, softer... and far more complicated. Because when fire meets steel, sparks are inevitable. The only question is, will they burn each other out, or ignite something neither of them can resist? . . . A Daniel Ricciardo story.

She became one of them-an Ontengco, not by name, but by presence. Joaquin may have failed to make Sheena an Ontengco. But Jackson? He wasn't the type to fail. He wasn't the type to let go. And this time, he'll do whatever it takes No deals, no arrangements, just sheer determination, to make sure Sheena becomes an Ontengco.

OVERDRIVE #1 According to Google, burnout is more than just a fleeting feeling of stress. It is a state caused by prolonged, unmanaged pressure that leads to a profound sense of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion. It thrives in toxic environments fueled by unfairness, poor treatment from the people around you, and a total lack of recognition despite everything you do to make them accept you. It is a deeper state of depletion that strips away your light, leaving you hollow. Once you are full from keeping it all in, you will eventually be triggered by a single circumstance. A breaking point that forces you to drop everything you love in exchange for the only thing left to find: peace.

"He wanted a business arrangement. She just wanted to save her family. But in the fine print of their marriage, love was the one clause they forgot to exclude." Yuan Villa Monte is the definition of cold perfection. A prominent CEO with a heart made of ice and a life governed by silence and strict schedules, he has no room for chaos-until he meets Joy. Joy is his polar opposite: loud, bubbly, and unapologetically chaotic. But behind her bright smiles is a desperate need to save her brother's life. When she finds herself in debt to the most powerful man in the city, Yuan offers a deal she can't refuse. He doesn't need an employee; he needs a wife. It was supposed to be a simple transaction-a professional contract to satisfy his family's demands. But as Joy's chatter begins to fill his silent halls, the ever-serious CEO finds his walls crumbling. In a world of cold numbers and business deals, Yuan is about to learn that the most beautiful things in life are the ones you can't calculate-and that sometimes, the best way to find yourself is to get lost in someone else's noise.
