Prison Break

Selma Elias was only eleven the first time he watched his father cry not from pain, not from hunger but from humiliation. Everyday Selma watched his mother tear Rafael Elias apart with cruel words, betrayal, and endless disrespect. Their home became a battlefield where silence hurt more than screams. While Rafael worked himself to exhaustion trying to provide for his family, Matilde Elias brought other men into their house even into their matrimonial bed while her son watched helplessly from the shadows. Then one night, that the worst happened. Rafael returned home unannounced and discovered another man inside his house. The heartbreak in his eyes that night destroyed something inside him forever. Depression swallowed him whole. Alcohol became his escape. His laughter disappeared. His focus faded. Eventually, he lost his job, his peace, and finally his life. Standing over his father’s grave, young Selma made a vow: He would never let a woman destroy him the way his mother destroyed his father. Years later, Selma Elias becomes powerful, wealthy, and emotionally untouchable. To the world, he is a successful businessman with absolute control. But beneath the expensive suits and cold silence lives a boy still haunted by memories he never escaped, he doesn’t trust women and also he doesn’t believe in love. And he refuses to let anyone get close enough to break him. But when a persistent woman begins challenging the walls he spent years building, Selma is forced to confront the truth he buried deep inside himself: Maybe the greatest scar his father left behind was not death but fear. And healing may require him to face the one thing he has avoided his entire life his own heart.

Zevian Rook had three things going for him: a scholarship to an elite university, $173 in his bank account, and absolutely no ambition to impress anyone. Then a System appeared. [Daily Check-In System successfully activated.] "Cliche." [...] "Can I fly?" [No.] "Heat vision?" [No.] "Then what's the point?" Apparently offended by its own uselessness, the System forcibly upgraded itself. [HEAVEN DEFYING SYSTEM activated!] Its first legendary reward? A nut. Zevian ate it. He probably should have read the description first. The next morning, his glasses stopped working, his body looked like it had been sculpted by an overenthusiastic god, and his supposedly ordinary university life went straight to hell. Rich heirs want to humiliate him. Campus beauties keep approaching him. A gorgeous senior secretly has thirty days to make him fall in love and break his heart. Unfortunately for her, Zevian is more interested in the free meals. And while everyone mistakes his indifference for cowardice, nobody realizes that beneath Zevian's easygoing smile is a man who simply doesn't care about money, status, reputation... or giving arrogant people the reaction they want. Cars? Nice. Mansions? Convenient. Beautiful women? He has eyes. Insult him? Go ahead. Touch someone he cares about? That's when Zevian stops smiling. From a broke scholarship student to a despised son-in-law, from a supposedly useless orphan to the hidden heir of a terrifying family, Zevian will slowly discover that wealth is only the surface of his world. Beyond it lies martial arts, hidden powers, forgotten bloodlines... and the truth behind a System arrogant enough to call itself Heaven Defying. Zevian only has one question. "Can I fly yet?" [NO!]

Elias Pratama loses everything in a single day. Framed for a crime he never committed, stripped of his inheritance, and abandoned by the woman he loves, he reaches the lowest point of his life. When all hope is gone, he encounters The Keeper, a mysterious celestial guardian who entrusts him with The Book of Debts—a divine ledger that records every moral debt humanity has accumulated. Chosen as the world's first Divine Auditor, Elias gains the ability to perceive the hidden "debt stains" carried by corrupt individuals. His mission is not to punish, but to restore what was unjustly taken. Every successful audit returns stolen rights to their rightful owners while rewarding Elias with Commission Fees, allowing him to unlock powerful talents such as business intuition, negotiation mastery, and strategic insight. With the Book as his guide, Elias builds a venture capital empire fueled by justice rather than greed. One by one, powerful billionaires, corrupt executives, and influential figures fall as the truth behind their stolen fortunes is exposed. Yet the Book enforces one absolute law: it can restore wealth, reputation, and opportunity—but it can never force love. When Clara, the woman who left him, reappears, Elias discovers she sacrificed their relationship to save her mother from crushing medical debt. He realizes that winning her back depends entirely on the man he becomes, not the power he possesses. As Elias rises, the Book reveals its greatest secret: his own father once committed a devastating moral crime to protect the family, and the suffering Elias endures is part of that unpaid debt. Faced with the truth, Elias must choose between revenge and redemption. To break the cycle of injustice forever, he must repay the sins of the past, proving that true justice is not about destroying enemies, but restoring balance.

"I regret the day I met you. I regret foolishly giving love a chance for the first time." Emily’s words pierced the air, heavy with regret and heartache. Her voice trembled as she uttered each syllable, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. But Alex stood before her, his own heart aching at the sight of her pain. He longed to comfort her, but the weight of his own decisions held him back. **** Alex was a billionaire and independent man who lived a life of fulfilment but was marred only by the suffocating grip of his parents. Just like a dog on a leach, he always did as they wished, whether he was good with it or not. He despised women and perceived them all as serpents in designer dresses. His parents arranged a marriage devoid of love with him and a fellow billionaire's daughter, Isabella, which he reluctantly agreed to. Since he had no affection for her, they lived in his house like cats and rats, with no intimacy between them. However, meeting Emily challenged his negative view of women and made him want to marry her, as they became drawn to each other like a magnet. He was willing and determined to marry Emily instead of Isabella, especially after she revealed she was carrying his child. Isabella harboured a hidden agenda far more intricate than mere unrequited love. As Alex's heart turned to Emily, she unleashed deadly plots, determined to retain her place in Alex's heart, even if it meant silencing her rival permanently. Will Alex break free from his condescending parents to choose his own future? Can Emily survive Isabella's wrath and plots? Since only a woman would emerge victorious in winning his heart, who would it be and at what cost?
