That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 138 Can't Just Let It Go
Everyone was looking at Lexis. He couldn't believe his bad luck, man! "This is too weird! Is someone playing tricks on me?" "What bullsh*t is that? It's your own luck!" Richard said slowly and he continued, "Now strip and go out there for a run!" "Well...Uh..." Lexis's face turned red, "Why not let me wear at least my boxers out?" "Nope, not a chance!" William Howard replied casually. "You can't do this to me! This lady here was able to get off the hook just now!" Lexis started to argue. "Why the hell are you so full of sh*t? Take off your godd*mn clothes now and get out!" William's voice turned cold. Lexis took a few steps back timidly and said, "William, aren't we like brothers? Today, what about..." "Do you want to strip yourself, or do you want me to ask someone to help you do it?" William said with an emotionless face, "Guards, get in here!" The door of the private room was pushed open and a few bodyguards came in. William

Valeria opened the door and ran out. Abbie wanted to get off the car and followed her but Richard grabbed her hand and said, "Don't get involved in this!" "Bro, she is my best friend! I'm scared that something will happen to her!" "When it comes to relationships, even parents can't control them, let alone us? Besides, what could happen to her? What can she do with her bare hands? William is a good man and he won't bully her!" Abbie was stopped by Richard and she could only stare at Valeria as she staggered to William's car. She pulled open the door and said, "William, you shameless..." Before she could finish her sentence, she noticed that there were no women in the backseat. It was only William sitting alone inside. Where were the women? She had clearly seen two women getting into William's car. Valeria stared at William in surprise. She even rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn't dreaming. William squinted at her, "Why did you stop

The intimate moans of pleasure lasted until the middle of the night. William was delighted after being able to make love with Valeria. He stared at her sleeping figure and he kissed her cheeks. William finally got what he wanted and he felt overjoyed. Just as he got up for a smoke, his phone rang. Lucas, the butler called, "Sir, come home immediately. Sir Hayden is looking for you!" "Is it something urgent?" William asked. "You'll know when you come back. It's an emergency!" "Okay, I'll be right back!" William put on his clothes and kissed Valeria. Then, he strode downstairs. In the Howard family's villa, the lights were on. Hayden sat on the sofa with a sullen face. The sound of the engine of a car came from outside. Soon, William strode in. When he saw Hayden's stern expression, he froze for a moment, "Dad, who made you angry?" Hayden looked at him and asked, "Are you dating Mason Eich's girlfriend?" "Yes, well, not his girlfrie
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 141 New Intentions
Julie nodded. Ashley's intuition told her that Julie was lying, "Mom, are you planning to lie to dad like how I lied to Mason?" "No, this is true! I had a close acquaintance who went to the hospital for a check-up with me. The baby is very healthy!" "Is this real? Are you pregnant for sure? Does that mean we have a chance?" Ashley became spirited right after hearing this, "Mom, quickly informed dad about this!" "Why are you in a rush?" Julie gave her a stern glare, "We have to plan first!" "Plans? What do you have in mind again?" "We are completely humiliated this time, we have to at least get back our image, right? Your father was so cruel to me and I can't stand the thought of it! This time, i want him to be the one who comes back to me. I want to officially become Mrs. Brown!" "Oh, yeah, dad was really cruel. What did he take us for! Mom, tell me your plans!" Julie whispered a few words in her ear, and Ashley nodded, "Alright. I'
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 142 Unable To Let Go
In Central South Building, Ashley got out of her car and shouted the moment she saw Ronald, "Dad!" Ronald frowned and stepped back. "What are you doing here?" "I have something important to tell you," Ashley ignored his attitude and said, "Dad, mom is pregnant." "How's that possible?" Ronald was shocked. "I'm not lying. Mom has been feeling uncomfortable these days and she has been retching. She didn't expect that she would get pregnant too. She thought it was a stomach disease, so she went to the hospital to have a check-up. Surprisingly, she found out that she was pregnant." Ashley sighed, "Mom couldn't believe it too. After knowing that she is pregnant, she had been in a bad mood ever since. It's too embarrassing for her to be pregnant at this age." "What's there to be ashamed of? Since she's pregnant, keep the baby!" After the feeling of shock passed, Ronald felt delighted! He always felt it was a pity that he didn't have a son. If Julie c
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 143 Going Overboard
After Valeria complained about William to Abbie, she started to send resumes in an attempt to look for a job again. During this period of time, she visited more than a dozen companies, and they all rejected her without exception. Seeing that Valeria had started to send resumes again, Abbie couldn't stand it anymore. "What the hell are you thinking? Why do you want a job so badly, Valeria? We are still considered girls from wealthy families! What can those small amounts of salary do for you? Get you a pair of shoes?" Abbie's words were direct and straightforward. She didn't bother to be subtle at this point. "It's not that I want or need a job badly. I just don't want to waste my time every day doing nothing. At least working will make me productive, you know," Valeria explained. "But you have been rejected so many times! Are you not embarrassed? Why not be your own boss instead?" "Being a boss is not cut out for me. I only like to design, an
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 144 A Huge Fight
On the way here, Valeria had wondered if it was made up by the paparazzi. After all, Julie was already in her fifties, so Valeria didn't really believe that Julie would really get pregnant. However, when she saw Julie and Ashley sitting on the sofa, Valeria knew that this was probably true. She let out a mocking laugh, "Wow... The house is so crowded today!" Ronald's face darkened, "What are you doing back here? Are you looking for trouble again?" "This is my home. I can come back whenever I like. Do I need to report to you?" Valeria felt extremely upset when she saw Ronald's gloomy face. Not only did he chase her out, but he even changed the password to prevent her from entering. Just how much did he hate her? He openly brought his illegitimate daughter and his mistress into the house. He didn't even take Valeria and her mother seriously! And this time, he had a baby with the mistress. If things went on like this, she would probably lose h
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 145 Throw Them Out
Ronald was shocked when he saw the four bodyguards. "Hey! Who are you? Who sent you here?" The bodyguards didn't even look at him as they ignored his presence. They turned to Valeria and greeted, "Good evening, Miss Brown. What can we do for you?" "Those two women came to my house out of nowhere and they do not want to leave. Throw them out!" Valeria pointed to Julie and Ashley. "I'd like to see who dares to do that!" Ronald's face turned red. Valeria sneered and ignored Ronald. She looked coldly at Julie and her daughter who were at the stairs, "Are you going to get out of here yourself, or do you need someone to drag you out?" Julie and Ashley's face changed. Of course, Julie wouldn't leave! She cried out pitifully, "Uh...Ronald!" "Don't worry, this is my house. I'd like to see who dares to behave atrociously in my place." With Ronald's words, Julie was relieved. After all, Ronald was a CEO of a company. How could he be bullied by others a

That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 1748 The End
On the day of Azalea's recovery, she was escorted out of the hospital by two police officers to wait for her sentence. She was wearing shackles and handcuffs as she walked through the parking lot. She saw Michael with Abbie, who was holding Emma in her arms. Michael was holding Abbie's waist, ready to get into their car. Seeing that Michael had recovered, Azalea was extremely perplexed. She had learned from the police that Leonard's man had tried to kill her to silence her and knew that Leonard was using her, so she did not regret her vicious behavior. Azalea stared at the child in Abbie's arms and Michael as she started to have vicious thoughts. If the one who got injured that day was Abbie, and if Abbie died, everything would be different now, wouldn't it? Michael would be living a life worse than death. His child would not have a mother anymore, and no one could have what she couldn't. She would be satisfied. However, all of this was just her imaginatio
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 1747 Lucky
After Leonard's matter was settled, Richard returned to the Clark family. Abbie wasn't asleep yet and was sitting alone in the living room in a daze. Richard walked to her and sat down. Then, he reached out and patted her on the shoulder. "Why aren't you asleep yet?" "I can't sleep. Richard, he... he will be fine, won't he?" "Don't think too much. He will be fine." "I don't want anything to happen to him... Richard, I actually hate him very much and have never thought of being with him again. I have suffered enough! Every time I made up my mind to cut all ties with him, something bad would happen like what happened now. Richard, what should I do?" Richard understood Abbie's dilemma. "Abbie, do you still love him?" "I don't know! I hate him! I hate him so much!" "You can't let him go, can you? You and he broke up three times, but he has always been in your heart." Richard sighed. "To be honest, I don't want you and him to start over again. After
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 1746 Don't Ever Come Back
It was late at night in Azalea's ward as she lay on the bed and fell asleep with her eyes closed. Three of Azalea's ribs were broken while one of her hands was handcuffed to the hospital bed. The policeman guarding her felt that there was no way she could escape, so he relaxed his guard. The man who was arranged by Leonard's assistant had been waiting for the right moment in the hospital. Then, they immediately entered the ward and attacked Azalea when they saw that the policeman had left. Just as they covered Azalea's mouth and were about to suffocate her to death, a soft voice could be heard by the door of the ward. "Hey! Are you trying to silence her?" The man turned his head and saw that Bobby were taking photos with his mobile phone while Silas was bent over in laughter. Later, Leonard was woken up at 2 a.m. in the morning when Richard and his bodyguards came to visit him furiously. Leonard had already guessed the purpose of Richard's visit as soon as
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 1745 Despise Abbie
It had been two days since Leonard's assistant brought Azalea back to the city and she was specially sent here today to attack Michael. Although Azalea hated Michael, she did love him immensely in the past and she didn't want to kill him. The one she hated the most was still Abbie. She had been overshadowed by Abbie since she was a child and she had never won against her before. It was all thanks to Abbie now that she ended up like this. Michael wouldn't deal with her if it weren't for Abbie, and she wouldn't have been driven to a dead end like this. She was going to die in the end anyway, so she wanted nothing more than to drag Abbie down with her. She knew that she couldn't get close to Abbie. Besides, she also knew very well that Leonard wanted to use her to kill Michael so that he could marry Abbie. Azalea acted as if she had been persuaded by Leonard's assistant to attack Michael, but in fact, her target was Abbie all along. She saw how desperat
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 1744 Why Did I End Up Like This
Azalea looked up when she heard the voice and met Leonard's assistant's gaze in the car. She stopped crying once he got out of the car. "Miss Clark, I've been looking for you everywhere!" Azalea lowered her head frantically when she saw him, but he said warmly, "Miss Clark, get in the car." She didn't know if Leonard's assistant knew about the murder she'd committed, so she hesitated for a moment before getting into the car. He then gave her a bottle of water and some food. Azalea was famished because she hadn't eaten anything for a few days, so she wolfed down her food desperately. Leonard's assistant had been observing Azalea all this time, and he said once she finished eating, "I know what you've done! The police are now looking for you everywhere." Azalea's expression was filled with panic. "Are you going to hand me over to the police?" "No, I'm here to help you." "How can you do that?" Azalea asked in frustration. "I won't be a
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 1743 Not Brave Enough to Commit Suicide
It started to rain again early in the morning, which made the air in the mountains damp and cold. Meanwhile, Azalea lay motionlessly on the messy bed. She could hear the child's wailing from outside while Monthel's mother tried to coax the child. However, there was no sign of it ending even after some time. Monthel's mother started to become angry as well, so she scolded the child and eventually began to target Azalea again. "Why are you still lying in bed at this time? I've never seen someone as lazy as you. A wife should get up early in the morning to cook, but you are the only one who will laze around like this!" This was not the first time that Azalea had been scolded. Monthel's mother had begun to pick on her the second day after she arrived. Azalea would fight back initially, but she no longer dared to talk back after she was slapped in the face by Monthel. Monthel's mother cursed outside for a while. Then, she lifted the curtain and came into the ro
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 1742 Embarrassed
Leonard's expression turned very ugly, but Richard did not give him a chance to even catch his breath. "After I learnt of your relationship with her, I sent someone to extract the DNA of the fetus in Evelyn's belly and compare it with yours. The results show that she's indeed pregnant with your child, but you can verify it personally if you don't believe me." Since Richard dared to say this, there was no possibility for Leonard to turn the tables. The veins on Leonard's forehead bulged as he was filled with humiliation. He initially wanted to get back at Fandrey by asking him to propose the marriage to the Clark family, but she ended up being embarrased like this. He was furious, but Richard continued, "We are very grateful to you for saving Abbie's life. Although she can't marry you, we can continue to be friends if you want to." What could Leonard say? He had done a terrible mistake, so he couldn't possibly tell Richard that he wanted to cut all ties between t

Abbie tried her best to escape, but it was useless. Michael even kissed her on the face a few times, which made her so angry that her voice trembled. "Michael... F*ck you... I'm going to kill you!" Michael turned a deaf ear to her words because he hadn't been so close to Abbie for such a long time. He missed her like crazy, so how could he bring himself to let her go? Abbie kept struggling desperately, but her physical strength was no match for Michael's. Michael then carried her back to the sofa, which made her furious because she couldn't escape. "Michael, what are you trying to do?" Michael did not answer her at all. Instead, he just hugged her so tightly as if he didn't want to let her go at all. He hugged her for such a long time that her whole body had gone numb. "Michael, what's wrong with you? Let go of me! I can't move!" It was only then did Michael let go of Abbie. Her limbs had already gone numb and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Just t

Michael happily placed the coffee he ordered for Abbie in front of her. "Here, I've ordered your favourite coffee." However, Abbie sneered and picked up the coffee to splash it all over him. The coffee was very hot, but Michael just smiled bitterly and said, "Do you hate me so much?" "What do you think?" Abbie looked at Michael coldly without any affection in her eyes. "My feelings for you have never changed! What happened between me and Azalea is all fake, and I've never had anything to do with her. The news with Anastasia was also fake. I was the one who used her to provoke Azalea, but Leonard made up those news articles to get back at me. I swear, I haven't been with anyone else apart from you!" Abbie let out a cold laugh, "Really?" "I'm serious! I swear that I'm not lying to you!" "There's no need to swear, or else even you'll beleive your own lies." Michael became desperate when it was obvious that Abbie didn't believe him. "What do I have
