That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 254 Another Reason to Marry Him
Lucas shuddered as it had been many years since he had seen Hayden acting so viciously. Madam Howard's death back then had left a huge impact on Hayden. He couldn't even bear seeing William because he would be reminded of her death, and thus he had sent William abroad at such a young age. He had said that it was for William to have a better future on the surface. But Lucas knew that deep down, Hayden was afraid to look at William's eyes that resembled his wife's. Therefore, Hayden would never allow William and Valeria to be together. However, it seemed like William would never leave Valeria either. Lucas felt that William was rather pitiful. He thought for a moment. "Sir, why don't you tell Sir William the cause of Madam Howard's death? His feelings for Valeria might waver even though they're extremely close right now, once he knew that Valeria was indirect cause of his mum's death." "You think I don't want to?" Hayden sneered. "I would not have let

The photos were perfect. She was facing the sun and holding it in her palms with a yearning look on her face. His photo composition was flawless as she could not find any faults with it. William lifted his lips and smiled at how satisfied she was, "You know how good I am now, right?" "I knew you were good. Otherwise, I wouldn't have promised to marry you yesterday!" "Nonsense!" He brushed her nose affectionately. They watched the sunrise for a while on the beach before getting on the car to return home. Valeria sat in the passenger seat and happily edited the photos that William had just taken for her on the way back home. She wanted to post them on social media to show them off to her friends. William had been driving when he looked over and saw her editing the photos, and he shook his head with a smile. Valeria posted the photos after she had finished making the final edits and had confirmed that her beauty was fully shown. She had chos

Valeria did not expect a text from Lamont. She thought she misread his name. Why did he contact her in advance even though there was still another day till their appointment? Could there be something else? Valeria stared at the text message for a while. She had to go and see him no matter what had happened, so she replied to the message immediately, "I'll be right there." "I need to deal with some issues, so please don't alert anyone else and come alone, Miss Brown," he sent another message. She frowned and thought for a moment before agreeing with his request, "Okay, I'll go alone later." She immediately rushed to their meeting point after leaving William. It took her a while to find the exact address, but it was just an ordinary two-story house. She stopped the car and rang the doorbell. Valeria was shocked to see the person that had opened the doorbell, "Are you Aunt Lucian?" The one who opened the door was Lucian Barnbook, who used to serve
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 257 No More Hope
Valeria's face suddenly changed at this thought. If that was the case, then Julie and her daughter were the murderers who had indirectly killed her mother. Lucian saw the change in her expression and asked, "Miss Brown, did you think of something?" Valeria nodded. She didn't know why, but she trusted Lucian even though they were not very familiar with each other. She told Lucian about her mother's situation before she died. Lucian was shocked, "So she did not fall sick gradually? It was a sudden illness? That's not normal..." "Yes, even though she was in poor health before, she was only weak and had no other symptoms then. My father asked her to hand over the company responsibilities to him to reduce her load, so that she would have time to take care of her sick body. She only handed over the entire company later." Valeria recalled, "I accompanied my mother abroad, and we stayed there for about three months. She became very healthy during that time. She us

William had returned to the Howard Group casually after he had parted ways with Valeria. When he came out of the elevator, he saw the office door next to his was opened. He glanced inside the room as he passed by just to see Paisley was checking at documents while sitting in front of her desk. He did not stop but straight strode back to his office. His secretary immediately followed up once he saw William had returned, "Mr. Howard, there's a meeting today..." He interrupted the secretary, "Let's not talk about the meeting first. What's going on with the office next to mine?" The secretary immediately replied, "It's more convenient for business partners to be next to each other, so I arranged for Miss Anthony's office to be next to yours." "Hah!" William sneered. He had brazenly refused to cooperate with her yesterday, but he was surprised to see that she had managed to force her way in. Moreover, her office was even arranged to be next to his! Did Pa
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 259 Nothing He Could Do
Hayden and Paisley waited half an hour for William to arrive at the small conference room of the Howard Group's building. Hayden was a little annoyed, so he picked up his phone to call William. William's ringtone rang from outside the door. He walked in nonchalantly once the door was pushed open. Hayden hung up the phone angrily and glanced at the time after seeing him walk in, "You're late! I'll let you off today. If you're late again next time, I'll deduct your bonus!" William raised his eyebrows upon hearing Hayden's words before replying, "I still have a bonus? Speaking of which, Chairman, how much is my bonus per month? Is it enough for me to have a good meal in the Wolf Group?" "We are working right now, so let's talk about work first," Hayden glared at William with a headache. He then looked at Paisley and said, "Paisley, didn't you prepare a proposal? Let's have a look at it." Paisley smiled and handed out the copies of the proposal that she
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 260 Don't Leak Anything Out
In the Central South Building, Kyrie, the assistant with gauze on his eyes, took a contract and pushed the door open in a hurry. "Mr. Brown, the contract is ready. Please have a look at it." Ronald took the contract and read it carefully with a smug smile on his face. "Good! That's good! Print two copies of this contract and let me sign them!" Kyrie agreed and was about to walk out when Ronald called out to him again, "You're fully in charge of this matter, so make sure that no information is leaked out. Do you understand?" "Don't worry, Mr. Brown. I've been with you for so long, so I know the rules!" Kyrie took the hint. Ronald narrowed his eyes and laughed coldly as he watched Kyrie leave to print the contract. This was the consensus he had reached with Hayden at the secret meeting last night. He would transfer all of the Brownard Group's assets to Hayden. In return, Hayden would give him ten billion dollars. Brownard Group would no lon

After Abbie hung up the phone, she immediately called Richard to tell him about it. Richard was very surprised when he heard Valeria's request. "Are you sure that Valeria told you this?" "I'm very sure! Bro, this situation is extremely urgent. Her father isn't a good person, so you have to help her. Otherwise, she'll be in deep trouble!" Abbie didn't know what was going on, but she knew that she had to help Valeria. Richard laughed and replied, "Alright, I got it. You don't have to worry too much, and you should ask Valeria to take it easy, too. It won't be a problem." Abbie was relieved when she saw him agree to Valeria's request easily. She hung up the phone and reported to Valeria. On the other hand, Richard hung up the phone and immediately called William, "William, your wife wants me to freeze the company's assets for her. Did you know that?" William was very surprised. It seemed like Valeria knew of Ronald's plans as he had just given the same

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
