That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 264 Deep In Trouble
Wearing a cap and a pair of sunglasses, Lamont had arrived in West-Hill cafe and was scrolling through his phone while waiting for Archer. Around ten minutes later, he heard footsteps coming his way as Archer entered the coffee shop through the front door. Then, Lamont stood up to greet him, "Mr. Saunders!" Archer gestured for him to sit before asking, "What's wrong? Why are you looking for me so urgently?" Next, Lamont nodded, "Yes, I wanted to ask a quick favor from you. It's about Miss Valeria Brown." "Valeria? Do you mean Natalie's daughter?" A mysterious expression flashed across Archer's face a while before disappearing. "What about her?" "Valeria came to me for help when she heard that Ronald was preparing to transfer his funds. As you know, I'm not too knowledgeable about business issues, so I thought I'd ask you. Valeria is just a helpless young child, surely you have some idea to help her, right?" Lamont explained. After that, Archer

Valeria got off her car and met up with Abbie, who had arrived before her. Abbie was grinning from ear to ear as she greeted Valeria, "Well, something good must have happened to you, right?" Valeria sat down and gulped down a glass of water before answering, "I have shocking news, today I discovered that there is an evil streak inside me after all." Abbie was excited to know more, "Really, what mischief have you gotten yourself into this time?" "Shush! Don't be too loud, you never know who might be listening in to our conversation," Valeria pretended to look around suspiciously before lowering her voice as she moved closer to whisper to Abbie. "Can you believe it? I actually switched out the company's official seal to a fake one!" "Wow!" Abbie exclaimed while sticking out her tongue, "I can't believe you did that!" "Right? I guess people do end up taking desperate measures when they are forced into unfavourable situations after all," Valeria answered glee

Valeria arrived outside Howard Group half an hour later, but there was no sign of William. She had no choice but to park her car before calling William, "Hey, I'm here, are you coming down soon?" "I'm coming!" William answered as he grabbed his coat before leaving his office. Steven, who had been working outside the door, looked up to William with a smile before greeting him, "Are you leaving now, Sir?" "Yes!" "Sir Hayden has requested you to wait for him, Sir." "What? Why do I have to wait for him?" William paused. Steven sighed and scratched his head, trying to evade William's sharp gaze. "He wants you to go to the company dinner with him and Ms. Anthony, but his driver's out running an errand so you all can only leave later." "Alright," William agreed readily, "I'll meet you all downstairs then." Steven heaved a sigh of relief at his answer. He was fully prepared to deal with William's anger, but it appeared that he got lucky as Willia
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 267 There Can Never Be Too Much Chaos
Hayden's attitude toward Valeria had ruined William's good mood, and he could only release some steam by speeding. After speeding on for miles, William finally managed to suppress his anger. The first thing he did was apologize to Valeria, "Valeria, I'm so sorry that I couldn't do anything about my father's attitude! You must have felt terrible after being dismissed by him like that!" Valeria could tell that William was really upset on her behalf, and she turned to console him, "Don't worry, I'm alright, don't let him ruin our time together!" "How could you be fine? My father has really crossed the line this time!" William answered with a bitter smile. He really did not expect Hayden to show his displeasure towards Valeria in front of others, but the incident today proved him otherwise. William was willing to take the brute force of Hayden's anger if it meant that Hayden would accept Valeria as the family's daughter-in-law. He could never bear to see Val

How could he see through the meaning behind her words? William completely ignored what Elizabeth had said, it was as if she wasn't even there. Elizabeth on the other hand wanted to disappear into thin air out of embarrassment as she had gotten no reply. Did William think that she would give up just because he had ignored her? Elizabeth was clear about the feelings Paisley's feelings towards William. Paisley should be burning with jealously now as William and Valeria were flirting with each other in front of her. All she needed to do was to give Paisley a little push and she could get into Paisley's good graces. Paisley must be desperate for someone to step in and back her up right now. Elizabeth decided to suck up to Paisley instead by filling up her plate, "Miss Anthony, I hope you're enjoying the food. How is it working with William?" "It's alright," Paisley replied coldly, having heard about all of Elizabeth's cunning tricks. Paisley was smart e

William carried Valeria and placed her on the bed inside their room, "Alright, you can tell me now." "Guess what I did today? I managed to not only switch out the official seal of the company with a fake one, but I also got Abbie and Richard to freeze all the company's funds! I'm amazing, right?" "Wow, that's awesome! How did you do that?" William pretended to be shocked but he was secretly enjoying Valeria's satisfied expression. "Wait, aren't you curious as to why I had to do this? I found out that our fathers colluded to take out a ten billion loan so that they could steal my company's funds!" "What a smart girl!" William praised as he gave Valeria a thumbs-up, "So who was the one who told you about their plans?" "It was Hardy," Valeria stated honestly as she began to tell William about the messages that Hardy had sent to her. "So why did you evade me and not tell me about this problem in the first place?" William questioned, pinching her face wh

In Merton Condominium, Mason had just finished his shower when his doorbell rang. He opened the door and the sight of a haggard Elizabeth greeted him. "Aunt Elizabeth, why are you here? What happened?" Elizabeth kicked her shoes off angrily and made her way to the sofa before sighing heavily, "William embarrassed me in front of all the other executives tonight!" "That b*stard embarrassed you? How dare he do so?" Mason had never gotten along with William. "Our great Sir William is the next head of the Howard Family, who would dare to stop him from doing so?" Elizabeth smiled coldly, bummed out at the events that had happened. "After the dinner tonight, I realised that they never treated me like one of their family members after all. Hayden, Charles, William, none of them recognise my efforts! It's even more annoying because I can't do anything about it!" Mason was furious after hearing about Elizabeth's complaints, "The Howard family has gone too far!

After Ronald had finished signing the contract with Hayden, he returned home to find no trace of Julie waiting for him. After asking Ashely, he got to know that Julie had gone out for a walk. Ronald immediately called Julie to ask her to return as he felt that it was improper for a married woman to be out this late. Around an hour later, Julie finally made her way through the front door. She smiled as she saw Ronald before explaining, "I met Madam Howard and hung out with her for a bit before coming back." "What did you all talk about?" Ronald asked. "I remembered that you wanted to look for a suitable husband for Valeria. Madam Howard recommended Mr. Anderson. He's old and limping, but a successful business owner that just lost his wife a few months ago." "Anderson? Declan Anderson?" "That's right! Do you know Declan?" Julie pretended to be surprised even though Elizabeth had told her all about the rumours. Declan was a rich businessman

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

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

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
