That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 231 Marry Her to A Widower
"Huh?" Ronald was dumbfounded at first, but his confusion quickly turned into pure joy when he realised that Hayden didn't want Valeria to marry William as well. He was concerned that William might become a problem when he decided to deal with Valeria. But since Hayden disliked Valeria, surely he would prevent William from saving Valeria. It would be easy to deal with Valeria as Ronald could use that to his advantage. He couldn't contain his happiness at all as he nodded, "That's what I think too, Hayden. Don't worry, I'll keep her away from William." On the other hand, Hayden was equally surprised that things played out so smoothly. He never expected Ronald to agree to his suggestion so quickly. Suddenly, it dawned on him that Ronald might look down on William like how he looked down on Valeria, and Hayden was uncomfortable with that. Although William could be uncooperative at times, he was still a cultured gentleman. Therefore, Ronald, of all peopl

The next day, Valeria and William landed at the international airport at B City after being on a plane for nearly twenty hours. It was only a few hours away from dawn as they touched down, but Valeria was wide awake because she had rested well on the plane. She wanted to go to Abbie's quickly, and William generously dropped her at where she wanted. Abbie had been walking to the living room groggily to check on the noises when she saw someone unexpected. She squealed, "Valeria! Why didn't you tell me you're coming back!?" "Surprise!" Valeria laughed and handed Abbie's souvenir to her. "This is for you. Open it up and tell me if you like it." "I know I'll love it," Abbie answered without even looking at it, "Give me a few minutes. I'll wash up, and we'll have breakfast at Wolf Group. I'm paying today!" Valeria took a seat on the sofa and smiled at her words, "Hurry up then. I'm starving already." She didn't wait long. Abbie returned to the living

Ashley was scolding an employee harshly with a furious expression on her face. "Are you deaf? Didn't I tell you that you have to arrange them in a specific way? You never listen to what we've told you. Just quit if you don't care about your job here, many other people are waiting to take your place after all!." Valeria frowned as soon as she noticed that Ashley was wearing the company's uniform. It was evident that Ashley was working in the company that Natalie had built up. Ronald had worn off whatever respect Valeria had left for him by letting his out-of-wedlock child work at Natalie's company. Valeria's face fell and Abbie, as her best friend, wasn't very happy to see Ashley acting so snobbish either. She seized the opportunity to bring Ashley down. Abbie scoffed as she strode over to Ashely, "Look who's here. Isn't this Miss Evans who enjoys stealing others' boyfriends and bad-mouthing about others? What are you doing here acting all high and mi
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 234 Leaving Something Behind
After Valeria and Abbie left the Central South Building, there was a serious expression on their faces. Abbie thought that Valeria was angry because Ashley was working in Brownard Group, so she comforted her. "Valeria, Ashley is deliberately provoking you. You don't have to take it to heart. When the time comes, you can ask your father to kick her out." Valeria shook her head, "Abbie, I'm not angry because of that. I just feel strange. Why would my dad let a woman like Ashley work as a design supervisor in the company?" Abbie thought about it for a moment, "Julie and Ashley probably begged your father for it. And this was the result a lot of coaxing and pestering." "No! I don't think so. My dad is not so softhearted. He only thinks about the profits. He is so heartless with me, but he treats Ashely so considerately. Something must have happened that I don't know about." "That's true. I'm curious now. You were so obedient and filial before. Why does he trea
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 235 The Key Inside the Safe
Valeria opened the safe and took out all the things inside. Her mother's shares of the company and some books were inside the safe, as well as the property ownership certificate of the villa alongside other company items. These were all things that were displayed as a distraction. Valeria knew that and she searched the safe for a while longer but she did not find anything else. She didn't give up and she continued to search. Finally, she found a string of keys and a business card under the compartment of a box. There were two words on the business card, Lamont Saunders, and a phone number below it. She had never heard of this name, but since her mother had put the key and business card in such a secret place, it must have been important. Valeria decided to look for him as she dialed his number. A low male voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hello, who is it?" "My name is Valeria Brown, daughter of Natalie Garcia. Mr. Saunders, c
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 236 Living Up to His Rumors
After hearing Abbie's words, Richard was stunned for a moment, "Lamont Saunders? Why are you looking for Lamont?" Looking at his expression, it seemed that he knew this person. Abbie was excited, "You know this person, right? Tell me, who is he?" "I know a person named Lamont, but I'm not sure if he's the same person you are referring to. You have to tell me why you want to know about him," Richard said slowly. Abbie had to tell the truth, "I'm not looking for this person, it's Valeria who is looking for him." Richard's narrowed his eyes, "Is that so? Do you know why she is looking for him?" "Here's the thing. Her mother left her a name card in the safe and asked her to find the person in the card when she is in trouble. The name on the card is a guy named Lamont Saunders." Abbie took a breath and said, "I am a little worried about her. After all, I don't know this person and I have never heard of him, so I want to find out who he is." After he

Abbie stared at Michael's lips as he kissed her. The shock made her mind go blank. Michael wanted to punish her for talking nonsense to slander him. However, after he kissed her, he did not want to stop at all. Seeing her stare at him foolishly with her big and round eyes, he reached out his hand to cover them. When her eyes were covered, she couldn't see anything, and her mind was in a state of confusion. The familiar sensation she felt from his lips made her stop struggling. As she lost her sight, a few chaotic memories came flooding into her brain. It was full of scenes with Michael in it. His gentleness and romanticness flashed across her mind. It was strange. Did she and Michael had a thing? Otherwise, why would she be seeing these scenes? She tried to grasp those fleeting memories, but it was futile. The kissing sensation brought her back to her senses. Michael, this shameless b*stard! Ashamed, she gave him a big slap across his face.
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 238 Troubled Heart
William strode out of the house while Bobby followed him closely. After getting into the car, William let out a sigh and he punched the headrest. Bobby hesitated when he saw that William was so angry, "Sir William, why did you choose this time to talk to Mr. Howard about this?" "I just wanted to get the gist of what was going on," William let out a sigh of relief, "It's okay though, this is all expected. I'm not mad about this." These words made Bobby confused. Wasn't he angry because Hayden didn't like Valeria? He thought about it and immediately asked, "Why are you angry then?" "I... Forget it. I'll tell you later!" William picked up his phone and called Valeria. However, her phone was busy with another call, so he put his phone away gloomily and said, "Let's go to Wolf Group!" Valeria put everything else back in the safe and she began to ponder with the bunch of keys in her hand after Abbie left. She had never seen this bunch of keys befor

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

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
