One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 63: Acacia's words were becoming pointed
After a round of adjustments, she finally returned to bed but struggled to find sleep. It wasn't until around 3 AM that Eranthe, in a drowsy state, fell into slumber.The next morning, she nearly overslept.As she approached the company's entrance, she accidentally collided with someone, causing her commuter bag to fall, spilling its contents."I'm sorry." The young man bowed his head to help pick up the items. He wore a mask, and Eranthe didn't pay much attention to him, focusing on packing her things."It's okay," she replied, heading straight to the door and making it in the last minute for the clock-in."You finally made it. I thought you were going to be late," Acacia teased as Eranthe sat down, catching her breath."The Planning Department has already refined several plans. I reviewed them, and they look good. Shall we go to their company today?" Acacia suggested."Sure, I'll check which one is in our district. We can start with that," Eranthe replied after catching her breath.
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 64: She was taken to the police station
William understood that these people were here to place orders, so they must be busy.He didn't insist and just sent Eranthe off, whispering, "We can't have a meal together this time. Don't refuse the next invitation; consider it giving me face."At this point, Eranthe couldn't reject again. "Alright, next time, I'll invite you to dinner.""Then it's settled," William insisted on escorting them to the parking lot.When William returned, the receptionist teased, "BOSS, is she your girlfriend?"William, who usually had no airs, was handsome and generous, and the younger girls in the company treated him casually.William laughed, "Don't talk nonsense; that lady's boyfriend is not someone I can compare to."The receptionist and William exchanged surprised glances. More powerful than William? Who could that be? It couldn't be someone from an even higher level, could it? They couldn't figure out which wealthy family Eranthe came from.After saying this, William walked away, leaving the two
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 65: I think I've been to a similar place before
Colin was tall, a fact Eranthe had always known, but as she stood on the steps of the police station, meeting his gaze only when they were almost at eye level, Eranthe suddenly understood why she was able to get out.She also realized that all those mysterious calculations would dissipate because of the favor of this man in front of her.An indescribable emotion echoed in her heart. In this vulnerable moment, a strong wall of defense rose within her.Her vision started to blur, and as she opened her mouth, she found her nose tingling. Colin sheltered her under the umbrella, extending his hand to gently squeeze the hand clutching her clothes.The raindrops, illuminated by the car lights, seemed exceptionally clear.It was also evident how warm Colin's extended hand was, radiating a force that helped her out.If it weren't for the people around, Eranthe really wanted to throw herself into his arms."Mr. Rodriguez," Gabriel stated solemnly, "I'll leave her in your care. Contact me if nee
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 66: Aren't you going to ask me about today?
The façade of fangs and claws to hide her vulnerability was as soft as fur when touched.Eranthe, feeling a bit awkward after the ambiguous banter, immediately looked down and continued eating on her own, no longer speaking to him.When the meal was nearly finished, Morris had already paid the bill.They got into the car.Judging by the direction they were headed, it seemed like they were going back to Colin's home. Eranthe turned her head and asked, "Not coming to my place?"Colin, who had been watching her, replied, "Someone is waiting for me at home. I must go back. Next time, I'll visit your place."Eranthe thought her words might be misunderstood, as if she was looking forward to him coming. She quickly turned her head to look out the window, forgetting to ask who was waiting for him at home.When they returned to the villa, the rain intensified a bit.Colin's coat was wet, but Eranthe, aside from having slightly cold feet, hadn't touched a drop of rain.Morris left after droppin
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 67: Is Gabriel handsome?
Colin covered her eyes. "Sleep. I've got everything under control."Eranthe suddenly felt her eyes becoming warm. The feeling of being unconditionally trusted, something she desperately needed. "Colin.""Hmm?""You're really kind."Colin hugged her tightly, and as Eranthe smelled the refreshing scent from his body, she peacefully drifted into dreamland.After she was sound asleep, Colin got up from the bed quietly, covered her eyes with the blanket, and closed the door.The kitten was still lingering near the door, hesitating to go downstairs. Colin took it downstairs with him and, before leaving, looked at the cat. "Behave at home."It sounded like he was talking to the cat, but it also seemed like an unspoken message to the woman upstairs.When Colin arrived on the second floor of the club, Frank had just poured the drinks.Seeing Colin, he nodded towards a man kneeling on the floor – the person he was looking for.Colin casually sat on the leather sofa, and the man had been beaten
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 68: Finally clearing her name
Colin, possibly not having had enough sleep, lay back down. "I have a share in this matter, but I'll handle it. I'm sorry."Eranthe didn't know what to say. "Is she crazy? "How could someone do something so outrageous?Setting aside her relationship with Colin, why would Zora target her like this?Insults and intentional harm were two completely different things. Even questioning her drug involvement was beyond belief, and it was a blatant contempt for justice.She couldn't fathom how an adult could commit such lawless acts."Last night I just found out, and I'm still dealing with it. So, whether you go to work or meet with clients, my people will be with you. Don't refuse," Colin said.Eranthe wouldn't refuse. At the moment, all she wanted was for him to take Zora straight to the police station.Perhaps overwhelmed by the sudden news, Eranthe remained silent.Colin didn't force her to speak, and with matters to attend to, after having someone take Eranthe to the company, he instruct
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 69: I told you, I don't have a boyfriend
Eranthe was not someone to be pushed around. She had never actively harmed anyone. The Peterson's was unlucky, and she was almost tempted to celebrate with a bottle of wine. As for the eventual fate of the Miller's and the Peterson's, she believed that the law would provide a fair judgment.At the same time, she suddenly remembered a comment Dylan made about Colin: ruthless and definitely not the gentleman he appeared to be. People who offended him had a miserable fate.Eranthe recalled her recent temper with Colin, and an inexplicable chill ran down her spine.Today, after smoothly signing the contract and receiving news of Alice's arrest, when Eranthe returned home, she was still in a relaxed and pleasant mood.Colin hadn't contacted her all day, and she naturally wouldn't take the initiative to ask if he was coming.After removing her makeup, applying a face mask, and choosing a movie to watch, she picked up her phone for a casual browse.Acacia, after yesterday's scare, was back t
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 70: Colin pushed her off
He couldn't hear what the man opposite her was saying, but he seemed to be making her laugh in a way she had never done before.Eranthe was sharing childhood anecdotes when Colin, unexpectedly, asked such a question. Ignoring his tone, she casually replied, "I volunteered for overtime."Colin couldn't help but laugh genuinely and angrily.Alright, she's quite something.She's even lying now!Eranthe glanced at her phone and saw that Colin didn't reply. She put the phone aside. "Want to drink?"Jayden was surprised. "You want to drink?""I occasionally drink. It helps me sleep better at night. Besides, I didn't drive today."Jayden ordered two bottles of wine, and Eranthe asked him about his life in Miami."It's just okay. I'm not used to the food there. I still prefer the food here.""Home is always the best," Eranthe sighed."You haven't been back to Tivette City for many years, right?""I go back every year. My parents are still there. I just come back on the same day."Jayden knew

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,
