Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 51 - The Plan
AFTER the incident in the bar where Malena kept on following Lucian, she became bolder in stalking him. A few weeks after the bar incident, she showed up to his apartment unannounced and enters his home and began to strip in front of him, coaxing him to have sex with her, which he should be happy since it had been 6 months since his last sexual encounter, but at that time he had rather bang some random girl in the bar than to be with her. He felt that he never knew who she was. She deprives him of intimacy for 5 years, then all of a sudden she’s throwing herself at him. He almost gave in, when he saw her naked smooth skin, long white porcelain legs, her hourglass figure and her tantalizing green eyes. Sending him a message of vulnerability and submission. He just needed to walk towards her and claim her. Something that he had been hoping to happen for the past few years. To her dismay, he left his own apartment and went home to his parents. Soon, he hires people to gather all his belo
Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 52 - Failed Execution
MONTH OF February and the office is filled with heart-shaped paper cut-outs in celebration of the upcoming Valentine's Day. Though the decoration shows a joyous vibe, the ambiance in the office is far from jovial. The C. I office personnel have been busy working their asses off lately, since the Hamilton Contract is expiring in 4 months and Mr. Kent hasn't agreed to meet up for a negotiation. Lucian could feel his father's stress when Victor York started lurking around the office and attending every meeting possible. Victor, in his 40s, is the eldest and the only heir of the York family. Despite his age, he remains a bachelor. As he can't find a suited lady for the title of Mrs. York. For him, no family is worthy of being part of the York's. He is one of the major investors in the company, and normally he doesn’t go to the office unless there’s an investors meeting, but since the Hamilton issue started he has become active. Slowly he began to show the reason why. He was offering the
Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 53 - It’s pronounced LATT-ON
MALENA initially plans to guilt-trip him by saying they slept together, and it’s her first time, then eventually hints that they should get married because her parents will disown her. But seeing that Lucian is not falling for her scheme and immediately uncovers her lies, she could only lower her head and hide under the covers. Soon she heard the door open and shut. The embarrassment engulfed her, she started crying and clenching her fist, blaming herself for being shortsighted. * * Latton and Albert agreed to meet for lunch in the Imperial Plaza. Though they are trying to mend their relationship as father and daughter, Latton does not move back to the manor and instead stays with Lucius. When she arrived, she saw that her father had already ordered and the food was being served and arranged as she walked towards the table. When he saw her, he immediately lit up and waved at her. Both seated facing each other, Albert started to put food on his daughter's plate. "You should eat mor
Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 54 - A Sight of HER
VIVIAN was so elated that she walked with a smile from ear to ear. She’s holding the rarest bag she ever saw. For some people she might look crazy, but for the type of business she has, her reaction is normal. Soon she arrived at the restaurant where John was waiting for her. He immediately noticed her beautiful smile. "To whom do I owe the pleasure of seeing you smile like that?" He says flirtatiously while helping her to sit. "Oh! Stopped it John. You’re making me blush." After she sat, they ordered and continued with their normal Saturday night date. Though they have been together for six years now and slept with each other numerous times, they still act as if it’s their first date. For John, the moment he saw Vivian, in that crowded train station on that one summer day, he knew she was the one for him and after six years that impression never changed. As for Viv, she was a busy working student at that time, and she never prioritized meeting men or talking to them as she set her
Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 55 - She’s at C.I
LUCIAN entered the office building with dark circles in his eyes. He has sleepless nights after seeing Sieve with Lucius last Saturday; he can't stop thinking about her, imagining she’s sleeping with Lucius doing things that she used to do to him. His face frowns, like there's a sour taste in his mouth. When he entered the elevator, as if the universe was against him, he saw Lucius inside. The latter then greeted him with a smile on his face, "Good morning, Mr. Caldwell." Lucian nods and gives a quick glance. He can sense that Lucius is a bit more gleeful today, then a scene flashes in his mind — a scene where Sieve and Lucius spent a steamy night together. "That’s why he seems happier than usual." He says to himself then glanced at Lucius again and saw red marks on his neck. His eye twitches upon seeing it. On the other hand, Lucius is oblivious to all of this, since Sieve is his cousin Latton. The red mark on his neck is not a hickey, it's a mosquito bite because he opened his room
Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 56 - Office Gossip
JOHN entered Lucian’s office with a mischievous grin on his face. As he entered, he immediately saw the dark circles around his eyes. "Yikes! You look awful!" He said as he sat on the coach opposite to his office chair. Lucian, at that time, was sitting on his chair trying to busy himself to get his mind off the idea running around his mind and John’s remarks were not helping him. "What do you want?" He asks as his eyes twitch in annoyance. "Chill, I’m not an enemy. I’m here to tell you something bizarre that happened a few minutes ago." He says with a teasing tone while he sips his coffee. "I don’t have time for this. Spill it out!" He demands, his tone of annoyance turned to a cold, domineering voice, but it didn’t have any effect on John, since he had known him since high school. While waiting for John’s story, Lucian took a sip of water, then he heard John suddenly say, "I rode the elevator with Sieve today!" He almost spit out the water from his mouth upon hearing John’s words
Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 57 - Miss Ripley
FRIDAY came in the blink of an eye. The whole top floor is still on high alert since they still can't book a meeting with Mr. Kent and aside from that, a new batch of raw materials will be delivered continuously within the next 2 months. The contract needs to be signed as soon as possible but the amount Mr. Kent is asking is way too high. From the price of 15M, it's now 20M. Everyone is on wits' end, especially now that Victor is lurking around. As COO Lucian can see, the full view of how the situation will take a huge toll on the business, and it’s not good. It’s like holding a double-edged sword that will hurt them both ways and the only option is to choose which one will hurt less. Option 1 is to accept the 20M price change, but the budget will be affected so that they might need to change the price of the products. In a competitive market, sales might slow down for the first 2 quarters. Option 2 is to move the warehouses to Shance, but it would give Victor too much influence in th
Hey, Stranger! CHAPTER 58 - Not a pushover
LUCIAN is still shocked that he can’t utter a word. Then he remembers what she said last week, "No worries, we have plenty of time to catch up next week!" "Is this what she meant when she said that? Is she going to work here now?" His mind was running around. Meanwhile, George finally calms down and sits again after seeing Lucius. Jacob, one of the managers, then asks, “Mr. Vaughn, is she the new Junior Managing Director for Ripley International?” “Yes, yes she is. This is Latt…” Before he could finish his words, Victor cut him off and said, “That’s why you look familiar,” He then walked to her and stared at her intently, then added, “I remember you when you were younger, timid and well-behaved.” He tried to reach for her shoulder to pat her, but Lucius immediately blocked him and gazed at him coldly. Victor sneered and then said, “Aren’t you too protective?” Hearing this, Lucian's eyes widened with a hint of envy. While John enjoys everything he is seeing. On the other hand, Vi
