THE SIGN OF LOVE Chapter 1 FIRST SIGHT OF HER

City P International Airport

Inside the black Mercedes-Benz, parked at the main entrance of the airport, is Lucas Saavedra. He is waiting for his sister Lucy Saavedra who just finished her master's degree in U Country.

He doesn't want to be late because of the traffic, which is typical in the city. He brought some documents to read to avoid wasting his time while waiting for his sister's arrival.

After reading the proposal for the land that their company is planning to acquire, he leaned back and closed his eyes.

A few minutes after, Lucas checked the time and decided to get some coffee nearby. He entered the coffee shop and sat by the window. Lucas then saw a reflection of a woman talking in sign language on the other side of the table in front of him. Although he can only see one side of her face through the glass window, he can tell from her side profile and her sexy back that she must be a beautiful lady.

Lucas shook his head in disbelief. He can't believe that he's acting like a pervert right now inside the coffee shop.

The waitress's greeting disrupted his thoughts. "Welcome to Hara's Coffee Shop Sir!" Said the waitress in front of him. "Are you ready to make an order?" She said politely with her pen and paper in her hands.

"Yes, a black coffee please," he replied. He then noticed a male waiter heading to the woman's side, signing something at her. She signed back at the waiter and then returned her attention to her laptop.

The video chat ended, but she became busy typing. The waiter came back, pushing a wheelchair towards the woman. She then held onto the table for support and sat in the wheelchair. Her movements were so graceful that Lucas was enchanted. He is like watching a short dance clip in the way she moves her body. Even though it seemed like she's been in the wheelchair forever, he can tell that she wasn't born that way.

She wheeled herself to the door for employees only, leaving her laptop on the table.

'Interesting,' he thought. He then looked at the laptop on the table and saw the screensaver. The woman forgot to shut it down. Out of curiosity, he peeked on the computer and saw the logo. He's trying to recall where he saw that logo. It seemed familiar, and he's trying to remember where he saw it.

His phone rings while he is busy thinking about the logo. Shaking his head, he picked up his phone nestling on the table and quickly answered it when he saw the caller's name.

"Where are you now?" He asked in a cold tone. He is sure that her plane had landed, that's why she called him.

"Hello to you too, brother!" She pouts. 'He didn't even greet her first before asking her location,' she thought annoyingly.

"Picking up my luggage!" She said in a sarcastic tone, then hung up the phone.

He shook his head and got up to return to his car. He knows that she'll be out pretty soon, and he doesn't want to waste another minute with her.

As soon as he was seated inside his Mercedes Benz, he saw her coming with her pink luggage shining brightly, almost blinding the people on the opposite side. He chuckled. He's only fifteen minutes older than her, but she seemed like she stopped growing after their eighteenth birthday.

The driver opened the door for her as she pouted, going inside the car.

"Hello there brother!" She said in an annoyed tone.

He did not reply and nodded to the driver. She looked at him with a crossed arm and asked, "So, how are you doing brother?" Lucy was annoyed that his brother didn't even seem like he missed her.

"Okay," he said, not elaborating anything, and did not bother to look at her either.

"Hmph!" She turned her back on him and decided to watch the scenery outside. It is more delightful than talking to her brother. 'If only you can choose a sibling,' she thought. They are like hot and cold water. Of course, the hot one is her, and the cold one is her brother.

The ride home was calm and quiet since none of them started a conversation again.

"Welcome back, Miss Lucy," the butler greeted her with a broad smile and slightly bowed his head.

"Oh! Santiago! I'm glad to be back! I missed you!" Lucy said happily, giving him a quick hug. Santiago shook his head and patted her back. 'She's still the childish Lucy,' he said to himself.

Lucas gave the butter a nod and gestured to his driver to go.

Lucy looked back and saw her brother's car leaving, 'seriously,' she mumbled. She doesn't know if she'll be happy that her brother is dedicated to their company, or she will pity him for losing a life outside. Lucy shrugged her shoulder and decided to go straight to her room to rest. She had a long flight, and a good rest is badly needed to refresh herself before starting her first day of work tomorrow.

LS Company

As soon as Ben Francisco saw his boss's car entering the parking lot, he immediately put aside the documents that he was organizing and went down to meet him at the reception.

"Sir Lucas," he called and waited for him to reply before he continued to say something. It's been his habit of getting his attention before moving on to what he needs to say or do. Ben learned his lesson the hard way, and that's enough.

"Mmm," his reply is enough for him to know if he is in a bad mood or not.

"Mrs. Saavedra wanted you to accompany her to a charity gala tonight," he swallowed his saliva after saying it all. He knows that his boss hates it when people don't give him enough notice or invitation to attend an event. But this invitation comes from his grandmother, so he needs to tell him even if it will upset him or his job will be in jeopardy.

Lucas's face turned gloomy. His grandma knows how to irritate him, but he loves her so much that he can't get angry with her for long. He wondered what this charity gala is all about this time. The last time he accompanied her to a charity, she was like selling him to the highest bidders.

With a deep sigh, he said, "Okay, you know what to do." He went into his office to start his day. Lucas wasted half of his day already. He thought of working overtime tonight to catch up with his work, but apparently, his grandma has a plan for him tonight.

"Yes, boss!" He was relieved with his reply. Ben Francisco hurriedly reached for his phone in his pocket and called Mrs. Saavedra.

"Madam," he said respectfully. "Sir Lucas will pick you up at seven tonight," he said nervously.

"Hmm..." Mrs. Saavedra knows that Lucas cannot say 'no' to her, so his

assistant's call is only for confirmation.

Inferno Heiress: Freed From Hell To Reclaim My Empire

Clara Voss

Hayley was betrayed by those who should have loved her most. To save their precious adopted daughter from a punishment she deserved, her own parents sent Hayley straight into a living hell—an infamous prison where survival demanded cruelty, and weakness meant death. Four years later, the girl who had entered those iron gates no longer existed. She emerged with a single, unbreakable rule carved into her soul: Every betrayal would be repaid tenfold. The day she walked free, the world trembled. A convoy of luxury cars lined the road. A legion of loyal followers awaited her triumphant return. Her father tried to buy her silence with money. But money had long lost its power over her. Her adopted sister hid behind sweet words and false kindness. But empty smiles no longer fooled her. Everything that had once been stolen would be reclaimed—piece by piece. When her parents attempted to tie themselves to the city's most feared man by offering their adopted daughter, Hayley's lips curved into a cold smirk. "Not on my watch." Backed by a legendary hacker, shadowy allies, and an entire prison willing to burn the world for her, Hayley dismantled her enemies with terrifying precision. Then the tyrant noticed her. "You're interesting," he said. "Be my woman, and the city is yours." Hayley raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. "You want to own me? Survive me first." High society became their battlefield. Power collided with desire. Ambition clashed with obsession. In this ruthless game of dominance and temptation, only one would kneel first. The girl once abandoned in hell rose from its ashes, crowned by fire and vengeance—And in the end, even the most feared ruler in the city would bow, offering his empire to the woman who had conquered both hell… and him.

While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

Katie Oettgen

As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole. I begged him for help, my vision blurring. But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background. "Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again." He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm. I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube. Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry. Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled. "You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up." He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research. I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym. They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive. They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity. I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding. I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it. Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house. The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born.

No Longer Mrs. Cooley: The Architect's Return

No Longer Mrs. Cooley: The Architect's Return

Xiao Xiaosu

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

Nathaniel Stone

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner-my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn't offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend's apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I'd spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend's face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.
