One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 19: I'm doing it for Colin's sake
Scarlett, oblivious to the situation, sneered at her, "You and your aunt both look like scheming foxes. A consensual relationship? Who would believe that? My mom told me it was your aunt who caused my dad to divorce my mom!"Eranthe dropped her bag, "I think you need a reality check. If your mom is so capable, why doesn't she come here to help you?"Scarlett's face instantly changed, her eyes reddening. "She's busy.""Busy doing what? Busy playing gambling in L.V.? Scarlett, you know very well how my aunt treats you. Let me tell you, she tolerates you because she loves your dad. I have no reason to tolerate you. Behave yourself, or if they send you to jail, I'll be celebrating with fireworks," Eranthe said, and Scarlett's eyes flickered for a moment."Will I really go to jail?"Eranthe turned away, expressing impatience, "I've consulted the doctor. The girl you pushed down the stairs is a dance student. Scarlett, can't you use your brain before doing something? Who do you think you ar
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 20: Anything is fine?
Coming out of the hospital room, Eranthe saw Scarlett on the other side, playing with her phone and probably complaining to her little friends. Scarlett's voice messages were still asking when they could go out together.Scarlett looked up, saw Eranthe's displeased expression, blew a bubble with her bubblegum, and said nonchalantly, "So, can we leave now?"Eranthe stared at her. "I shouldn't have bothered with your mess."With that, she walked away, and Scarlett, after a moment of confusion, followed."Hey, what do you mean? Do you think I'm causing trouble for you? If so, you shouldn't have bothered in the first place. Did I ask you to interfere?"Eranthe pressed the elevator button and glanced at Scarlett with a mocking look."You seem quite capable now. Whispering here with me, you're just a big shot in your little circle. Outside, you're nothing. How many people here could easily crush you with a finger? Don't take advantage of your youth and lack of restraint. Who the hell spoils
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 21: Wrong once, and I'll kiss you again
Eranthe remained silent for a moment, mainly because Colin's message left her unsure of how to respond appropriately.Fortunately, Colin didn't send any more messages.Just as Eranthe breathed a sigh of relief, she noticed two tall men in suits walking towards her from the corner.Her pupils constricted, a reflexive reaction to Dylan's shadow. She instinctively thought about turning back to the hospital to report to the police.The men approached quickly, "Ms. Taylor, we're here on Mr. Jones's arrangement. He knew you didn't have an umbrella. Do you need us to escort you to your destination?"Eranthe was momentarily stunned, "Morris? Have you been following me all along?"The man seemed a bit embarrassed, "We are employed as private security by the Rodriguez family. Mr. Jones was concerned about the possibility of someone threatening your personal safety. Unless necessary, we wouldn't appear before you."While Eranthe was somewhat displeased, she acknowledged the current exceptional c
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 22: I'm sorry
Blushing, Eranthe mumbled, "Isn't it all taking advantage of me by you?"At his words, Colin leaned in for another kiss.Feeling a bit awkward, Eranthe said, "Let's have dinner first."In other words, the remaining time tonight belonged to him.Not being overly hasty, Colin picked her up horizontally and headed outside."How did you come up with making these dishes?"Just cleaning the scales off that fish alone would require some effort, and it was easy to imagine how troublesome it would be for her to handle it alone.Eranthe hooked her arms around his neck, feeling the man's powerful body through his suit jacket.To be fair, Colin was a very attractive man who drew women to him, or else he wouldn't have so many admirers. In terms of looks, Eranthe felt like she had hit the jackpot."Don't you like it?" she asked.Colin rare flashed a hint of a smile. The tension that was present in the morning had now dissipated."Yes, I do."Back in the living room, Colin placed her on the sofa. In
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 23： Is this a ridiculous decision?
She always felt that her connection with Colin was just a fleeting encounter, far from being angry enough to be a boyfriend. In fact, in their kind of relationship, it would be best for each to return to their own rooms after satisfying each other. However, Colin didn't want to leave, and she was indeed tired, so she let him stay by her side.Colin, feeling helpless, pressed her back, "It's my fault. Why are you apologizing to me?"Eranthe remained silent. She was somewhat frightened by Dylan, and fundamentally, she was not a person with a sense of security, because no one knew better than her that in this world, she had no one to rely on."If being my woman means you don't even have the right to get angry, then it's my fault."Eranthe felt strangely comforted by his words. Yet, she couldn't help but wonder how many women he had said this to.But she actually found it useful. Perhaps it was because tonight's atmosphere was too beautiful, surpassing several previous occasions. He was v
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 24： She was called for questioning
"Why did you take leave yesterday? You didn't reply to my WhatsAPP. I almost went crazy.""Your iced coffee." Eranthe took out a cup and handed it to her.Acacia teased, "You're trying to brush me off with this?""Forget it then." Eranthe pretended to take it back, but Acacia quickly grabbed it, took a sip, and raised an eyebrow. "Why do you still have your suitcase? Went on a trip?""No, ran into a little trouble." Eranthe then opened WhatsAPP. Acacia had sent her 30 messages. Eranthe had blocked her because she often forwarded boring and funny words."Don't bother reading. I'll tell you quickly. Have you heard about Dylan's situation? It's trending in our local hot searches."Eranthe nodded. It was related to her after all."Just for this?""Of course, it's not enough." Acacia looked around, then lowered her voice. "Because his dad, Eric, is suspected of corruption, and everyone he promoted is under investigation. Guess what? Mr. Harris and Galina were both summoned."Mr. Harris had
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 25： Could the company even consider firing you？
Women in the workplace often face more malice than expected. Many men unintentionally show disdain for various aspects of women. It's like standing on a high and mighty position, criticizing any behavior they find unpleasant, and not thinking they have a problem.From childhood to adulthood, their environment has fostered a culture where they can criticize women on various aspects of their lives, even attacking their character face to face, making lewd jokes and using vulgar language during social gatherings, boasting about their romantic exploits. However, if a woman does the same in a similar situation, it is considered immoral and emotional.Eranthe's accusations caused a rift within the investigating trio.Now, attention turned to the third person, and David asked, "What do you think?"The man glanced at both of them and said, "It was indeed excessive."David, feeling helpless, stood up and said, "Well, it was my mistake. I apologize. So, can you continue to sit down and cooperate
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 26: I can tell you confidentially
She tossed the tissue into the wastebasket, "Let's go."Back at her desk, Eranthe began to review the work from last week. It was impossible to say that she was completely unaffected, but she couldn't imagine standing up and having a heated argument face to face with these people.Of course, she didn't believe that keeping quiet would make these people stop, but she also didn't want to give them the satisfaction of seeing her succumb.In the afternoon, a message was sent to the company's employee email, and it was reposted on the Ashly Group forum, intensifying the situation.The title of the post was straightforward, grabbing everyone's attention.[Dreams of Wealth Shattered, Boyfriend Jailed, Instantly Finds a New Sugar Daddy? True Face of the Player Queen Exposed!]Eranthe thought that she and Colin were caught on camera today, but when she clicked on the link, she breathed a sigh of relief.The content of the pictures was taken without her knowledge, but it showed Eranthe's face.

Eranthe replied, "If I had no conscience, I wouldn't give you medicine to take."Colin turned his head in frustration.Morris arrived promptly upon hearing that Colin was ill, and Eranthe happened to be handing over her shift to him."Follow the instructions on the medicine label for him. I've prepared hot water. Just remember to close the door when you leave," Eranthe said, aware that she had only half an hour for her commute and couldn't linger.Morris nodded repeatedly but then noticed the deathly stare from his boss."Miss Taylor.""Yes?""Today, I also need to take a day off with Mr. Rodriguez. Could you please take care of him?""Today's schedule is packed for me. I can't look after him," Eranthe replied, well aware of Morris's tactics. His loyalty was clearly with Colin.Morris was quick on his feet. "Miss Taylor, my mom is coming to Assyria City today. I was planning to take the afternoon off anyway. Mr. Rodrigue
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 259: I have to take care of it myself
Colin raised an eyebrow in disappointment, then spread out the sheets and lay down with the cat.But clearly, he couldn't sleep. The scent of the woman still lingered in the air, constantly tempting him and making him feel uncomfortably hot.He decided to take off his shirt, his long legs hanging off the sofa because it was too small for him to stretch out fully.Every time he closed his eyes, he pictured her exceptionally enchanting appearance.Inside the house, Eranthe tossed and turned, feeling like her territory had been invaded. She regretted not ignoring him.Why was this so troublesome? If only she had ignored him, she would have fallen asleep by now.After lying in bed for half an hour without feeling drowsy, she scratched her head, feeling the need to use the bathroom. But the bathroom was outside the room...What if that dog suddenly pounced on her?If he dared, she would punch him.Eranthe silently vowed, lift
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 258: You scared me earlier
Eranthe: ...She really wanted to smash this guy with the water bottle."Go home!"If she kept listening to him, she might start feeling a little soft-hearted.Colin smiled subtly and followed her casually, like a large dog.On the way home, Eranthe repeated multiple times not to take advantage of any opportunity to enter her home.Colin agreed readily, and when it came time to open the door, she insisted on watching him enter before she unlocked it, like she was guarding against a thief.Colin asked, "Are you really sure you don't need me to escort you home?""Mr. Rodriguez, I'm already home.""What if someone unwelcome shows up at your place?"Eranthe laughed, "Then I'll call the police. It's scarier letting you in. Maybe you should worry more about whether there's a headless ghost under your bed at night, or someone staring at you from outside your window."After saying this, Eranthe watched with satisfa
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 257: I'm making you unable to think straight?
"..." Eranthe concluded that communicating with him was indeed asking for trouble.Eranthe opened the door to leave, and Colin followed.Eranthe cursed inwardly. She had let her guard down. It seemed Colin had taken advantage of the moment to change his clothes, and now he was accompanying her to eat."Mr. Rodriguez, someone of your stature shouldn't be playing the role of a tracker," Eranthe remarked."No, of course not," Colin assured her."Let's hope you stick to that," Eranthe responded skeptically."Agreed."The two entered the elevator. "Where are you headed, Mr. Rodriguez?""Depends on my mood.""..." What a watertight answer! Depending on his mood meant wherever she was going, he would follow!The elevator quickly arrived, and as luck would have it, they encountered the elderly lady downstairs again."Oh dear, finished your meal, young couple? Going out for a stroll?"Eranthe smiled awkwardly
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 256: It's already worth it
Wasn't he just trying to make her insist he stay?"Forget it, sit down and eat. It's like I'm bullying you," she muttered.Colin moved closer. "Miss Taylor, are you inviting me?"He glanced at his watch. "During my working hours, I'm not allowed to eat with clients, but if a client requests it, I can provide additional services.""What additional services? Dishwashing?""A deep kiss.""Eh?" Eranthe gave him a deadpan smile. "You're fired.""My employer isn't Miss Taylor, so you don't have the authority for that, but you can complain.""And the solution to complaints—is it also a kiss?"Colin remained serious, adopting an austere expression. "Miss Taylor, I'm here for part-time work, not to sell myself."Eranthe couldn't stomach her meal after that.“Colin, are you even serious? Should I start a fundraiser to buy you a mirror?” Eranthe retorted, still seething.This guy had the audac
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 255: Making some extra cash
Then, as if in disbelief, the doorbell rang."I'm sorry, Miss Taylor, it seems the nutritionist has arrived. We've already paid, so it would be awkward to send him away."Eranthe: ...Why did you even schedule this?!It's just stirring up trouble for no reason!She didn't want to take it out on innocent people, so she hung up the phone and went to open the door, expecting to see a lady but finding a tall man at the door instead.Eranthe burst out laughing, "Mr. Rodriguez.""When did you start moonlighting as a nutritionist?" Eranthe crossed her arms, eager to hear what else he could come up with.Colin raised an eyebrow, "Just bored after work, making some extra cash."He gestured to come inside, leaving Eranthe speechless. She was also worried about leaving the door open and the cat suddenly darting out.Once Colin successfully entered, it was just like before—efficiently grabbing onions, ginger, and garlic
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 254: Why would I need a nutritionist?
Most likely, Colin was just there as a witness the whole time.Eranthe adjusted her position, leaning closer to the car window, and closed her eyes again.When she woke up once more, it was to the sound of honking outside the window.She suddenly looked as night fell, turning her head abruptly to meet the man's dark gaze.She jumped slightly, and Colin said casually, "Awake?"Eranthe checked the time and realized it was already 7:40. She must have slept quite a while in the car. "Why didn't you wake me?" she asked.She opened the car door. "Thank you for driving me back."As she picked up her bag to head home, she noticed Colin was also getting out of the car.Eranthe halted her steps. "Are you planning to come to my house?"Colin admitted nonchalantly, "Yes."Eranthe was incredulous. "Mr. Rodriguez, don't play dumb. Wasn't I clear enough?"Colin replied, "Shouldn't a pursuer safely escort you to the doorst
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 253: It seems like they angered some big shot
Alexis wasn't under Mr. Hill Vice President Hill's jurisdiction, so he didn't react much either.After the meeting dispersed, Eranthe clearly noticed several leaders looking displeased.Just as Mr. Hill Vice President Hill was giving Eranthe instructions about which projects to prioritize next, Eranthe was taking notes with her pen when she saw the hotel manager rushing over to a group of leaders."What's going on?" Eranthe watched as the leaders headed towards the coffee shop, and shortly after, police cars arrived.It seemed they were trying to contain the situation and were ordered to return to the city promptly.Eranthe had already checked out and didn't want to get involved in others' affairs. She hoped to catch a ride with Mr. Hill Vice President Hill, but then she saw him being called away as well."Forget about it, let's all go back," Eranthe muttered to herself as she turned around, but then Colin's phone call came through.S
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 252: You want to sleep with my woman?
"Okay, if you really end up with Eranthe, I'll learn from you.""Does Oriel really want to be with you? Just flattering yourself," Colin, in a bad mood, retorted sharply.Frank sighed, "Ah, men without a sex life are truly terrifying."Colin ignored him.From behind the water feature, voices could be heard.Although not loud, with few guests around, the conversation was clear."That woman is really pretty, almost like those female celebrities on TV.""Were you trained with her before? Do you know what she's like? Is she easy to get? With looks like hers, she must have plenty of suitors.""I heard she has some connection with that Miller family whose son, Eric Miller, dated her for a few months. They've probably split up now, and there are quite a few guys chasing her in the company.""I think with a woman like her, you could win her over with a bit of money. Just a few dates and you could sleep with her.""Alexis,
