Hearing this, Michael glared at William angrily. William raised his eyebrows and moved his lips silently. "Get mad if you have the guts to!"

Michael was so angry that he also moved his lips in reply. "Just you wait and see!"

"Oh no... I'm so scared!" William continued to provoke him by lip-reading.

Michael laughed angrily, then he reached out and patted his head as if he just remembered something. "Oh, I forgot about something important."

"What did you forget for you to make a fuss like this?" Richard gave him a side-eye.

"I met Ms. Anthony at the door just now. She said that William had turned off his phone, so she couldn't reach him. It seemed urgent because she told me to mention it when I saw him. I was so busy eating that I completely forgot to mention it."

Richard knew that Michael mentioned Paisley on purpose. He was also an onlooker who liked drama, so he said, "Is that true? Which room is Ms. Anthony in? William, go and have a look."

    Having heard that Valeria was having dinner at the Wolf Group, Ashley rushed there immediately, but unexpectedly, the security guards at the door stopped her. "Wolf Group doesn't allow entry for people like you. Get lost and go as far as you can!" Ashley was in a miserable state. Since the security guard didn't let her in, she could only stand outside and wait in hope that she could persuade Valeria when the latter came out.  She had been waiting outside for a while, but Valeria was nowhere to be seen. It started raining heavily, and Ashley took a taxi here, so there was no place to shelter her from the rain. Soon, she would be soaked. She was already super unlucky, so why was the weather not on her side either?  Without taking shelter, Ashley stood in the rain and waited for Valeria to come out. The raindrops fell on her and slowly drenched her from head to toe. A black car slowly drove into the parking lot, and Charles, who was in the car, wa

    After having his way in the car with Ashley, Charles let her go in satisfaction.  She was indeed a seductive person who managed to make him lose control of himself. After returning to normal, he said, "Is your father looking for Valeria right now to use the 'family' card to take advantage of her?" "Yes!" Ashley did not hide the truth. "My dad could not sit still with his losses. He was in a rage and forced me to look for her. But Valeria hates me so much, so I know that there's no way she would agree to see me. If I can't get her to see him, he'll beat me up again!"  He frowned and said, "Ronald is really cruel! It's okay, I'll help you look for her." "Really? Thank you!" Ashley sighed in relief. Charles fixed his clothes and got out of the car to enter the Wolf Group. Soon, he found the room Valeria was in and went inside to look for her.  Although the people in the room hated Charles, they still respected him. Richard and Marcus suppressed th

    Valeria was not moved at the sight of Ronald crying. She stepped back and said, "Dad, what exactly are your intentions? Do you just want me to forgive you?" "Yes, Valeria. After I fell ill, I realized how evil my actions were towards you..." "I know, but it doesn't matter anymore. I don't blame you, and I forgive you. Do you have anything else to say?" She interrupted him. "Valeria, I did those things because of Julie and Ashley's manipulation... I regret it a lot now. If they found out that I don't have any more shares in the company, they would definitely leave me." "Dad, you still have money even if you don't have shares, right?" She laughed sarcastically. "Didn't you sell all the shares of the company? The money you got would probably last you a lifetime." Ronald's face flushed, but Valeria didn't seem to care at all. "Fortunately, I had the money to escape from your plans. Otherwise, Dad, you would have been overjoyed at the news of the drop in stock

    William's words shocked Valeria. "You can't talk nonsense like that! Ashley should be my dad's child, right? He is such a shrewd person. Before he took them in, he must have done a DNA test." "Yes, he must have done the test, but the results may have been changed, right?" William replied with a smile, "Don't you think that Ashley and your father have no similarities at all?" "Well... But I don't look like my father either. It's possible for children to not resemble their parents, right?" Valeria retorted. "That's also a possibility, but it is not likely for children to have zero resemblance to their parents. Let me give you an example, what would you do if you are really not your father's child? This is just an example." "That's not valid, how can I not be my father's child? You can't spew nonsense like this!" She glared at him unhappily. "I was just joking. Don't mind me, and don't get angry either." He explained immediately. "Your jokes are crossin

  • That Stranger Lying Beside Me   Chapter 321 Valeria's True Identity

    William looked at the message sent by Marcus for a long time without replying. He had already suspected Valeria's identity a long time ago. Although Ronald was vicious and shameless, William had always believed that a true father could never be evil towards his own children.  Since Ronald was good to his mistress' daughter, Ashley, how could he treat Valeria so badly? So, there was only one explanation, which was that she was not his biological daughter. He always had this assumption at the back of his mind, and it was not until Ronald did the paternity test that he confirmed that they were not biologically related. Since Valeria had nothing to do with Ronald, then Valeria's true identity was very obvious. Natalie had no relationship with any other men except for Archer. Therefore, her biological father must be Archer. This was the biggest problem for William. If this truth was revealed, there would be strong objections against his relationship with

  • That Stranger Lying Beside Me   Chapter 322 Future Revenge Plan Against Him

    Archer had already considered Lamont's assumption of the situation. If William was really the president of the Wolf Group, then he really had only one purpose to get close to Valeria. However, they had been together for so long, and William had been helping her the whole time. So far, he had not seen him do anything bad to Valeria. "Perhaps he did get close to her for revenge. But we can't rule out the possibility that he fell in love with her in the process. Valeria is so simple. She can't even fend for herself against Ronald, so how would she be able to do so against William? If he wanted to plot against her, he would have done it a long time ago. He wouldn't have waited until now." Lamont understood what he meant. If that was the case, then this would be good news. However, Lamont did not dare to let his guard down. "I hope that's the reality, but we can't ignore the worst-case scenario. We have to prepare ourselves in order to face unexpected situations, rig

    To let Richard and Braelynn have some alone time, William was on a call with Valeria for almost an hour. A few minutes after William hung up the phone, Hardy called her. "Valeria, your phone is so hard to get through. I've called you more than ten times, but it was all busy. Are you busy with companies calling you for cooperation?" Upon hearing this, she blushed a little. "Mr. Anthony, what's the matter?" "Okay, so, I have a joint project that will be quite profitable, but I don't know if you are interested in it." As soon as she heard that it was business, she agreed. "Of course I'm interested." "That's good. Let's meet when you're free." He picked up his notebook on the table with a smile. "I'm free right now. I can go over now?" She naturally would not give up any opportunity for business cooperation. "Sure." He agreed. He actually planned to go to her office, but now that she was William's girlfriend, it would be quite outrageous for him to

    After following the Hummer for more than an hour, it finally stopped. The bodyguards got out of the car while dragging the one-eyed man and his accomplice out. They were tied up the moment they were thrown into the Hummer, and they uneasily tried to come to an agreement with William's bodyguards. "Guys, you are all also part of a gang, right? We're all from the same family. Could this be a misunderstanding?" William's bodyguards did not want to waste their time talking to them, so they covered their mouths to shut them up. Seeing that the kidnappers were pulled out of the vehicle, Lamont also stopped the car. Valeria opened the car door in a hurry and went up to them. The bodyguards dragged the two kidnappers to the basement of the villa. They laid on the ground while gasping for air. When they saw Valeria come in, they were both stunned. "Are... are they your men?" The two of them were like mice in a trap. The bodyguards greeted Valeria with r

    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

    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
