That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 390 Fading Memories
Valeria was at work when she got a Whatsapp text from Gavin, saying that he was around the Central South Building, inviting her for lunch. A little surprised, she went out to see what was going on. Gavin was all smiles when he saw her. Going up to her, he said, "Valeria, I came all the way here to buy you lunch." "You don't need to do that," Valeria shook her head lightly. "I'm already here anyway. Accept my offer, will you?" Losing lost to the tender smile on Gavin's face, Valeria finally agreed after a moment of hesitation. As they were crossing the road, Gavin accidentally slipped. Valeria was quick to hold him, "Sir, be careful!" "Your knees are weaker as you're older, you know?" Gavin laughed as he held on to Valeria. And it surprised Valeria that Gavin was okay with her holding him. Remaining in that posture, the two of them walked across the road to the Chinese restaurant.

That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 391 The Dark Side of Savannah
Natalie was stunned as she heard Lucian. She tried to hold her temper in check before she murmured, "This cannot be. How would the Saunders know about Valeria?" "But there's no other reason that would make Sir Gavin approach Miss Brown. I have a bad feeling about this. What if they want to take Miss Brown in when he finds out about her identity?" Natalie's hand was pressing on her forehead, "No. I can't let them take Valeria away. I won't let it happen!" All of these wouldn't have happened if Gavin did not support Savannah in the past to separate her from Archer. So, Valeria had no ties with the Saunders. Natalie would never let them take Valeria away from her. Valeria was her child, and only hers. On the other side of the city, Raymond had been driving without a destination after he left the Wolf Group Hotel. He told William he was heading to catch a drink, but he didn't know where to go. He wasn't in the right mood. Just th
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 392 Blackmail
William didn't seem to mind that Raymond and Abbie met at the bar. What really caught his attention was the meeting between Gavin and Valeria. Gavin's motive was clear to him. He knew Gavin went through all those troubles to get closer to Valeria so that she would let him take her back to the Saunders in the future. And William wasn't very fond of this idea. He was foreseeing something more than that. If Valeria found out who Gavin really was, she would definitely go mad. Just how did Gavin think Valeria would be happy to reunite with him. Besides, Gavin's little tricks to get Valeria back would definitely catch other people's attention. Savannah would be the first to notice it, followed by Hayden and Archer. William thought it was too soon for Gavin to bring everything to light, but he didn't have a good reason to stop Gavin from meeting Valeria. After all, they were supposed to be separated. As much as William was troubled, Valeria came back in a g
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 393 Too Kind
Upon hearing that, Charles left the dining table and went to his study. Closing the door behind him, he noticed that something wasn't right with Savannah. "What is it this time?" he asked. Savannah showed the text to Charles, "Look." "What…" Charles was startled by the message. "What is this all about? Who's this person?" "I don't know. I would have settled him by myself if I knew who the hell this person is," Savannah cursed at the person. "Charles, what do I do now? I have totally no idea where this b*stard is from. What if he is just playing tricks on me?" "I don't think it's that easy. He probably knows some details... But don't worry too much since you've destroyed all the evidence at that time. They don't have any other evidence anyway," Charles tried to comfort her. "Yes, I know. But what if this person really knows something and makes it big? Archer is already waiting for a
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 394 Never In His Wildest Dreams
Back at the quiet farmhouse, Natalie had recovered from another intense headache. Drenched in sweat, she headed towards the bathroom to take a bath. And she saw her reflection in the mirror, still graceful as usual. She was already fifty years old, but she looked like she hadn't aged a day since her thirties. After a hot bath, Natalie felt more energized, and the memories that had faded began to come back to her little by little. She couldn't help thinking of Archer, especially her past with him, his handsome face, sweet gentleness, and his betrayal. It still hurt her every time she thought of it. She was kept in the dark about Archer and Savannah's relationship for so long until Savannah got pregnant and came to flaunt to her about it. Naturally, Natalie was livid about it. Since then, she fought with Archer so many times, and every time she was promised that she was the love of his life. He also assured her that he would marry her, but in the end,
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 395 Your Daughter
Natalie's thought was cut off by a door knock. She opened the door, and Lucian slipped in. "Why are you here? I told you not to come over. Send someone else to come if there's something important. People are going to notice you," Natalie complained. "I know, I'm just worried. How are you holding up? Did the pain hit again today?" Lucian was concerned as usual. "Yeah, it did," Natalie answered. "Take the painkillers if it hurts. I bought a few more bottles for you," Lucian said as she took out the bottles from her pocket and put them on the bedside table. Natalie took a glance at the painkillers and turned to her, "You can't be here only to give me the painkillers." "Yes, I want to talk to you about Sir Gavin meeting Miss," Lucian sat down. "I think there's a good way to solve that problem." "How is that?" "Since you hate Savannah and Archer, then we'll start
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 396 He Would Do Anything
Archer fell silent. For a while, all Lamont could hear was Archer's heavy breathing. Archer was startled by the news. He never thought that he would have a daughter, what's more, Natalie and his daughter! Then, it dawned on him that he had a child with the woman he loved the most. The realization brought him so much joy that he was frozen in place, and he couldn't even give an appropriate reaction. Archer had no problem sealing hundreds of millions worth of business deals, yet he didn't know what to do with the sudden piece of good news. "President, are you still listening?" Lamont urged in a lowered voice when he didn't get Archer's reply. "I… What is going on?" Archer's voice trembled with excitement. "Lamont, why did you hide it from me?" "It's a long story. President Saunders, now that you know who Miss Brown really is, what are you going to do?" "I don't know," Archer answered truthfully. He always t
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 397 Point of No Return
After letting Valeria take Oreo and Mocha with her, Gavin returned to his newly bought home, humming in happiness. The bungalow had been scrubbed clean before he moved in. And upon careful inspection, Gavin felt that although it wasn't as luxurious as the Saunders manor, it was still passable. He then walked to the room specially prepared for Valeria. Its decorations were mainly in pink color, with several dolls and teddy bears arranged atop the bed. Valeria would definitely like it very much, Gavin thought to himself. Still humming, Gavin returned to the first floor only to be startled by the sight of Archer standing in the middle of the living room. He stopped short, "What are you doing here?" "How could I have not come after you kicked up such a big racket?" Archer sat down on the couch. Archer's appearance here at the bungalow alone made Gavin convinced that Archer had already found out about the news too. He shrugged, "I can't

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
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 1741 Worth It
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
That Stranger Lying Beside Me Chapter 1740 Satisfied
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
