Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 17 - Phone Call
Lucian called Alex, his most trusted lawyer, to mediate the situation with the driver’s family. Alex explains that they can pay the family and ask them to drop everything. Though Lucian is a righteous person, he lets Alex handle everything using money. For him, his righteousness can be bent as long as it's for Malena’s sake. After 24 hours, Malena got out of the hospital, Alex paid the family's medical bills and gave them $200k compensation. The case was dropped and the police did not pursue the investigation. Lucian sent her home and stayed in her apartment and hugged her the whole night. For him, this was the longest and the most intimate night they had together. He smiled while staring at her face. He then tries to kiss her on the lips, but she wakes up and moves her face so that he kisses her cheek. Though he was happy to be lying beside her, sleep did not come to him easily. Instead, he stared at the ceiling and only fell asleep around two in the morning. Around six o’clock h

AFTER WORK, Lucian went home to change his clothes and took some of the packages that he ordered online. At seven o'clock in the evening, he arrived at the Eastside Hotel and waited for Sieve. Seven Oh two when she arrived. He sat her down on the bed and told her to wear the clothes he had brought. She took the clothing and was stunned to see it was a sexy maid costume and it was mostly made of sheer fabric. She removes her clothes and wears the maid's costume, while he watches the whole scene. She notices him staring at her and teases him, "I think it's your time to strip for me." He walks towards her, holds her neck and squeezes her cheeks and says, "What did you say? You f*cking dirty wh*re?" He spat on her face, then pushed her onto the bed and took something out of his bag. First, he blindfolded her, and once blindfolded, her heart began to pound. It made her uneasy but she brushed it off. Next, he put an open-mouth gag on her, put a leash on her neck, and tied up her ha

BLADE proceeded to insert his fingers inside her and move them gradually. She moans with every movement his finger makes. When she’s about to go off, he stops and she is left hanging. She stares at him in dismay and she wants to stand up, but her hands are still bound behind her back, which makes it hard for her to move. He was enjoying the look on her face and began to laugh sadistically. “You bastard!” She yells while trying to hit him with her elbow. He then lays on top of her to pin her down when suddenly his phone rings. He sat up and put his knee on her chest to prevent her from moving. When he took his phone, she saw the name and the photo of the caller. The name shows “My Love” and the image is of a beautiful blonde woman. Before he answered the call, he took some things inside his bag. He then says, “I need to take this call, this will keep you busy.” He then proceeded to put a ball gag in her mouth, insert a vibrator inside her and tie her feet. He then answered the c

LUCI drove to visit Latton but when he arrived she was not there. He then went straight to her room to rest while waiting for her. He sat on the bed and was about to remove his shoes to lie down and possibly take a nap on her bed when a box under her study table caught his eye. He took the box and opened it. He saw that it was a scarf. He was happy to see that she had already finished one of the things he requested and tried the scarf, but the design got him confused. It has the zodiac sign Sagittarius embroidered on it. Luci is a Pisces, and she was an Aries. While he was staring at the design, the door opened and it was Latton. "What are you doing?" She asked. She then took the scarf away from him. "This is not yours, I haven’t finalized the design for your scarf." She added. "Is the scarf for him?" He asks while staring at her, waiting for her reaction. She blushed and said, "It doesn’t concern you. Get out of the room." She then pointed the door to him. "I never thought I

“WHY are you frowning? Have I done something wrong?” John asks with a worried look on his face. He instantly extended his arm to pat Vivian's hand. “It’s nothing. You’re amazing. I can’t wish for anything else. It’s just… I can’t forget that Elizer bag. Bag that rare, you won't see that every day and I blew my one chance of taking its owner as a client.” Vivian explained as she puckered her lips. “Do you want me to buy you one?” He asks. “Oh! No, no! It’s too expensive and a waste of money for us. It’s a rich people's item. I just want to check it further and admire the design and stitches.” She explains while cutting the steak on her plate. John pats her hand again, gives his warmest smile, and says in a low assuring tone, “Maybe we’ll meet her again or meet another Elizer bag owner.” Seeing his adorable smile and hearing his words she lit up instantly and gave a gleeful grin, “You always know how to make me feel better, Hon.” After they ate, they walked to the park near the resta

LUCIAN and his father, George, drove to Brass Bistro, a famous restaurant in the city, to meet with Mr. Ripley and talk about the Sierra Project. The father and son duo arrived first and comfortably waited for Mr. Ripley in the VIP room of the restaurant. After 10 minutes of waiting, he arrived with his right-hand man, Kirby Johnson. After exchanging pleasantries with one another, they soon got down to business and started discussing the project. “You see here, Mr. Ripley, we can finish the project ahead of your desired date and apart from that with the hardware and software upgrade we are going to conduct we surely ensure that your company's data processing time will lessen by 50%. Helping your productivity to increase by 30%.” Lucian explains while his father listens to him with a proud smile on his face. Mr. Ripley is amazed at how Caldwell Inc. takes their ideas to the next level and, given the data, he is blown away. “I’m very pleased with your presentation and trajectory. I
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 23 - Straps
LATTON was pacing back and forth in her room and bored out of her mind. She caught a glance of her reflection in the mirror and started talking to herself internally as if seeing three other Latton in her room with her whispering things in her ear. “I’m so bored, what should I do?” “Text him!” “Call him!” “Come on, it’s the 21st century, make the first move.” “Should I make the first move?” “Yes!” “Yes, you should.” The voices in her head sounded like echoes in a huge room. It sounded surreal. A knock brought her back to reality. “Miss, lunch is ready. Do you want me to bring your food here or are you going to eat at the dining area?” The maid asks. “I’ll eat downstairs,” she yells. The maid quickly went downstairs while Latton changed her clothes since she was still in her pajamas. She stared at herself in the mirror again and said, “I should stop talking to myself.” She went downstairs and ate alone at the dining table that could seat 18 people. A situation that has bee

John was sweating bullets while pacing outside the COO's office. This made the office personnel feel uneasy, as if something bad was happening in the company. Jenny, Lucian’s 40-year-old secretary, sees John outside and calls his boss over the phone. "Sir, I don't mean to bother you but Mr. Rowe is outside. He's been walking like a headless chicken for quite sometime now and it's making everyone uncomfortable." “Tell him to get inside,” Lucian responded in a commanding tone. Jenny then opened the door and gestured to John to go inside. She then opens another door that leads to Lucian’s office. John entered the room with every step heavier than the other, heart pounding, blood pumping stronger as he got nearer. “What’s wrong? Why are you walking back and forth in front of my front desk? Is there a problem in the finance department?” Lucian asks while he sits at his desk and stares at his friend intently. “It’s not about work. It’s about…” John paused, unsure how to say it to his fr

She frowns, “Why are we here? I thought you were going to smuggle me out of the country via plane?” She asks.The driver smirked, “Well, change of plans.”

She receives a letter from her friend that states the court granted temporary access to her money."I might not be able to get away from the law, but I can surely pay someone to bust me out and get back on everyone. Especially with that brat that sent me here." She said as she glanced at the prison guards. Observing which people she could bribe."You seem in a good mood, pumpkin," Sam commented.Alison nods.

He didn't even wait a year," She mumbled while replaying all the promises he had told her. Soon, the item on the spare bed caught her attention.It's the teddy bear she gave to Lucian and the scarf she made for him.Her thoughts were soon interrupted when Lucius entered with Xavier, who had just arrived from Ohio.Xavier smiled from ear to ear seeing her awake.

Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 213 - Their Last Conversation :(
DAYS had passed and Lucian seemed to get worse. He became overbearing, he called every hour to check on her. It is as if someone is out to get them.Latton couldn't take it anymore, but she knew too well that Lucian wouldn't tell her what it was.She needed to investigate it without raising any suspicions. She made a surprise visit to Caldwell Incorporated as it might be work-related. It's not. Caldwell Inc. was flourishing, standing stronger than ever. She witnesses on her visit how he buries himself at work while constantly checking on her."If you continue doing that you are going to get sick." She mumbled as she patted his back in concern.He smiles. "I'll be fine." He says as he kisses her hand. "Why don't you stay in the CEO's lounge? I'll finish this, and we'll have lunch together." He suggested.She nods. She could see that the dark circle in his eyes worsened, and it seemed he had lost weight over the week.She wanted to speak to him when, suddenly, someone knocked on the door
Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 212 - Lucian’s Paranoia
JOHN and VIVIAN's engagement party was a success. It was even featured in a local newspaper with the caption 'A decade of love story'."An inspiring love story for everyone to read." Malena mumbles while reading through the newspaper.Then an idea entered her mind, "What if I chose to be with Lucian instead of plotting revenge against him and his family? Would I be this happy?" She asks herself while staring at Vivian's smiling image in the newspaper.She starts laughing at her own thoughts. "Of course not. I'm merely a substitute for Shirley and most likely I won't even meet him if I didn't plan everything from the start." She says, then folds the newspaper and hides it in the drawer. "This time I will make things right," she mumbles.Then she started rummaging through her computer and soon began typing on her phone.MEANWHILE, at Lucian's Villa.Lucian was still having difficulty sleeping, even with Latton in his arms, he couldn't stop having nightmares about losing her.On the other

ALBERT'S eyes enlarged."The audacity of this cunt," Albert thought as he stared malevolently at the man in front of him.He leaned forward and held Lucian's collar."Hey!? Cut it off." The police officer nearby yelled. Albert immediately let go of Lucian.Albert scoffed," Your words are more of a declaration than asking for permission," he remarked."How sure are you that my daughter will accept your proposal?" He added while crossing his arms.Lucian nodded, "She's the one who proposed to me." He muttered proudly.Albert laughed, "She did?" He spoke in surprise, and his gaze softened momentarily. He visualizes his daughter wearing a wedding gown, but soon sorrow creeps into him. The reality that he might not have the chance to walk his daughter down the aisle entered his mind.Soon his gaze darkened when he stared at Lucian, "If that's her decision... But... If you hurt her, assure yourself I won't take this lightly." He warns.Lucian smirked, "I know what you mean, and I would never
Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 210 - Stockholm Syndrome
LATTON had just finished speaking to Boris over the phone when Igor pulled up the car in front of the manor’s main entrance. He opens the door for her and soon gets into the driver’s seat. “Where to Miss?” He asks nicely, his voice sounds jovial instead of threatening. She grinned, “Aren’t you a bit gleeful today?” She uttered without looking at him. He scoffed, “Can’t I be happy?” He answered sarcastically with his thick Russian accent.She smirked. “Well, that’s more like it.” She mumbled. “I spoke to Boris today.” She paused and then glanced at Igor, observing if there were changes in his demeanor.She noticed that he gripped the stirring wheel tighter upon hearing her words.He cleared his throat, “What did the boss say?” He inquired while staring at her through the rearview mirror.She leaned comfortably on her seat and then clasped her hands on top of her knees. “Your boss told me that you insist on working for me as a driver. Why is that?” She asks curiously.He laughs, “Wha

LUCIAN wrapped his arms around Latton's waist and kissed her neck, "How about we go back to your room and exercise before I go to the office?" He whispered flirtatiously in her ear. "What if after we do our cardio you accompany me anywhere I go?" He added while nibbling her neck.She blushed, and a hot wave of lust ignited in her body. She bit her lower lip and, as if she was under his spell, all she could do was agree and nod to him.They smile lustfully at each other like two thirsty bunnies hungry for one another's touch. He kisses her gently on the lips, but he can't get enough of her addicting soft lips. From a gentle peck to a full-blown French kiss. Their lips intertwined, and they couldn't seem to stop. Eyes closed, tongues rubbing each other, both caught in an intense tongue fight, none backed down.Their hands began traveling on each other's bodies. He hurriedly unbuttoned her pajama, then the buttons started to fall on the floor, but it never bothered them. He threw her top
