I Became The Wife Of The Male Lead Chapter 20

Ethan Gray was considered the luckiest man in Portland, married to Vivian Ashford, the powerful CEO of the Ashford Group. Their marriage was hailed as a modern fairy tale. But the illusion shattered on their fifth anniversary. When thugs disrupted their celebration, Ethan shielded Vivian with his body, receiving a near-fatal stab wound. Waking up in his hospital bed, he overheard Vivian speaking sharply in German over the phone: "I hired those people to break up the anniversary. Jack is back, and I couldn't celebrate with Ethan. I only married Ethan because he looks like Jack. He’s just a shadow." She had no idea that Ethan had secretly mastered German over the last three months just to understand her world. Heartbroken and fully awakened to the truth, Ethan quietly gets a divorce. He packs his single suitcase, turns his back on her wealth, and rejoins Doctors Without Borders. He heads straight to a perilous, signal-free war zone, reclaiming his identity as a brilliant, life-saving surgeon. Meanwhile, Vivian believes his departure is just a childish game to seek attention. But when she finds his raw, devastating farewell letter in a hotel guestbook, realizing he understood every word of her betrayal, her world crumbles. The cold CEO is plunged into a frantic, desperate search—only to realize she may have lost him to the line of fire forever.

The man let out a sudden laugh, broken and relieved, that escaped from deep in his chest. Tears began to fill his eyes, joy replacing the panic that had consumed him moments before. “Five million bitcoin,” he declared, his voice shaking with emotion. “That will be your reward.” Lucas blinked slowly, trying to process the words. “Five million bitcoin?” he asked cautiously as he did not even know the worth of it in dollars. “What does that even mean? Can I at least get a decent meal with that tonight?” The young woman swallowed hard, still staring at him, her lips trembling slightly. “It means,” she said softly, “your life has just changed forever.” Lucas frowned, confusion and disbelief across his face. “How?” he asked, his voice barely a whisper. She hesitated, taking a deep breath before speaking again. “Five million bitcoin is worth Three hundred thirty-five billion, eight hundred thirty-one million, six hundred fifty thousand dollars. ” Lucas froze completely. The world spun beneath him. His vision blurred. 335, 831, 650, 000.00 dollars?? The sound of rain outside disappeared, all he could hear was the sound of the figure echoing in his ear.

They broke me, but I conquered… After my father sent me and my mom away for being worthless to him, I met her–Diana, the one woman that showed me what true love was after Mom passed on. But shortly after everything, after Mia was born, she left for another man, still repeating how I was useless. But everything changed when I met her, the one woman with a pure heart. However, family secrets won't stay down forever. When old lies and family drama threaten to destroy everything, will love break me or make me?

Jack thought hitting rock bottom was the worst thing that could happen—until he struck gold. Fired. Betrayed. Humiliated. Jack’s life collapses in a single day. The love of his life laughs behind his back, his friend at the office stabs him in his back, his aunts finally show their true colors after his dad died, and the world seems determined to spit on his face. Then, while drowning his sorrows in a dingy bar, a wrinkled lottery ticket in his jacket pocket turns out to be worth $2 million dollars. Overnight, Jack goes from a broken man to the most eligible bachelor in the city. He lives the life of a king. However, wealth does strange things to a wounded heart. Now, he isn’t chasing Samantha’s love or his wicked, greedy, purse-loving aunts. He’s inviting them to witness what they gave up. With each dollar spent, each luxury acquired, Jack isn’t trying to move on—he’s trying to rewrite history. But money can't heal betrayal. It only puts a spotlight on it. And Jack’s not sure whether he won the lottery… or if the lottery just unlocked a part of him best left buried.

Arthur finds himself being reincarnated into an erotic, fantasy game called [Oriana] and not to mention, he had reincarnated into a thick femboy called Willow?!

Dying at twenty-five, Ethan wakes up thirty years later to a ruined Earth where his own name is synonymous with the apocalypse. Armed with a 'Future Self System' that grants him the combat skills of his older, legendary, and far more ruthless persona, Ethan must navigate a world of scavengers and cultists.

They used to call me a nobody at Walter’s Regal...a nerdy, expendable novice architect buried in the basement, scrubbing the footprints of London’s elite off plans they stole from me. Then, I found the anomaly. Buried deep within ancient Crown property registries and centuries-old blueprints was a loophole so massive, it could bring the entire London skyline to its knees. I didn’t just find a flaw in the system; I bought it. With a few obscure land titles secured for pennies, I quietly took ownership of the very ground beneath their multi-million-pound mega-structures. Overnight, the tables turned. Money became my sharpest weapon, and capital my ultimate leverage. Now, those same billionaires who sneered at me are begging for my mercy as I systematically freeze their assets, bankrupt my former oppressors, and construct an untouchable empire of my own. I am Jayson Velasco. I went from the weakest link in the corporate machine to the most feared, filthy-rich tycoon in Europe. Look up at the London skyline. Every tower, every shadow, every brick belongs to me now. If you want to build in my city, you bow to my blueprint.

As the world went on as usual, with people working tirelessly to make ends meet, studying sleeplessly to be complimented, and partying endlessly like nothing could stop anyone, suddenly there was a strange explosion in the sky. It only took one day for this explosion to completely change and disrupt the normal balance of everyone's lives in the world. What some once dreamed of has already happened. Modern war broke out, there was discrimination that never ended, and new continents and countries emerged. Amidst the rapid evolution of mankind, there is one thing that still remains a mystery to everyone. Where exactly did the strange explosion begin? What is the reason for all this? Is it really God who is doing the work, or is everything just being played on purpose to destroy the world forever? Despite so many unanswered questions, there is a woman sitting quietly on the steps of a huge mansion. Little by little, every strand of her long, black hair is turning white. Suddenly, her eyes, which were once black, turned a bright golden color. She grinned mischievously and slumped as she rested her elbow on her knee. "Find me if you can. After all, no one really knows that I am number Ten. Come, I have all the answers."
