When the Last Peso Falls unfolds over 78 chapters, delving into the intricate dynamics of a family whose bonds are tested by the lure of wealth and the struggle for power. The Manlapig family, once united by a shared vision of prosperity, begins to fracture as money becomes both a symbol of their success and a source of deep-seated conflict. The story is anchored by the family's patriarch, Don Gregorio Manlapig, whose fortune has brought both privilege and resentment. As he nears the end of his life, the future of the family's wealth becomes a battleground. His children, each with their own aspirations and grievances, vie for control of the family's assets. His eldest son, Arturo, is driven by ambition but struggles with his own moral compass. His daughter, Isabel, seeks to use her share of the wealth to help the community but faces resistance from her more self-serving siblings. Meanwhile, the youngest, Ricardo, is caught between loyalty to his father and a desire to forge his own path. As tensions rise, secrets are uncovered, and long-buried grievances resurface. The family's once-clear lines of loyalty blur, revealing the true cost of their fortunes. Amidst these struggles, they confront questions of identity, morality, and the real value of family and wealth. When the Last Peso Falls is a powerful exploration of how money can both bind and divide, offering a poignant reflection on the complexities of familial love and the pursuit of legacy. Through the trials and tribulations of the Manlapig family, the novel poses a timeless question: what truly matters when the last peso falls?

Shattered Symmerty by Geminitea26

In Symmetria, a city obsessed with looking perfect while everything underneath is falling apart, the cracks are getting harder to ignore. The leaders? They're more focused on keeping their polished image intact than actually running the place. But chaos is brewing, and guess who's making a comeback? Ravi, the power-hungry dictator with a tighter grip on the city than ever. And trust me, things are about to get messy. Enter Sunaina, a sharp, determined force of nature, and her loyal (but definitely not boring) friends Jenna and Marcus. They're caught in the middle of all this chaos, trying to save Symmetria from Ravi's iron fist, while dealing with the fact that trust is about as rare as a flaw in this so-called perfect city. Betrayal? Oh, it's lurking in every corner, and hidden agendas? They're sprouting like weeds in a manicured garden. The trio needs to figure out who's on their side-and fast-because the clock is ticking. In this city, loyalty is more fickle than the weather, and ambition? Well, that'll lead you straight into disaster if you're not careful. With the cracks in Symmetria's perfect facade getting deeper by the day, the leaders will have to face not just Ravi but also the enemies within their own ranks. As everything unravels, one question remains: How far are they willing to go to protect their "perfect" city? And who can they actually trust when every choice could pull them deeper into chaos-or worse? Buckle up for a wild ride. Power, ambition, and loyalty are about to collide in ways no one saw coming. Because in Symmetria, nothing's as perfect as it seems, and every move could be their last.
