The Contracted Stripper Chapter 184
Ryan sat on the edge of his hospital bed, still groggy from the effects of his recent injuries, when his phone buzzed on the bedside table. He picked it up, squinting at the bright screen. The notification that greeted him made his stomach churn—"Ivy Kendrick Caught in Stolen Design Scandal!" blared the headline, followed by endless comments tearing his sister apart. He stared at the screen in disbelief, scrolling through post after post that dragged Ivy’s name through the mud.“What the hell…?” Ryan muttered, his heart pounding as he quickly dialed Ivy's number. It rang once, twice, before Ivy’s shaky voice came through. “Hello?”“What the hell is going on, Ivy?” Ryan barked, his voice sharp with concern. “What is this? I’m seeing all over the Internet about you stealing designs. Is this some kind of joke?”Ivy sniffled on the other end, but before she could respond, Ryan cut her off. “I’ll be at the mansion in ten minutes.”He ended the call abruptly, his blood boiling. Shoving his

Bella stepped into the quiet Kendrick mansion, her heels clicking on the marble floor as she surveyed her surroundings. The house seemed unusually still, almost eerily so. She furrowed her brows, half expecting to see Ryan lounging on the couch or flipping through business papers, but the living room was empty.Her curiosity piqued, Bella stopped a passing maid. "Where's Ryan?"The maid looked startled for a moment before she quickly composed herself. "Mr. Ryan left the house earlier today, ma'am. He hasn’t returned yet."Bella’s eyes narrowed in suspicion. "He left? Where did he go?"The maid shook her head. "I’m sorry, ma'am. He didn’t say."Bella waved the maid off, feeling a knot of unease begin to form in her stomach. Ryan leaving without telling her was one thing, but his being gone for hours on end without a word? That was out of character. Especially now. Her mind raced, thinking back to the last few days and the subtle changes she had noticed in him. Ryan had been quiet, unus

The atmosphere inside the dimly lit room was suffocating, almost too quiet for comfort. Iris lay on a small, uncomfortable bed, her hands resting over her swollen belly. She could feel the weight of each breath she took as if the air had become heavy with tension. The room had become her prison for months now, but lately, she could feel a shift—her time was drawing near.She winced slightly as the baby inside her kicked, a reminder that she wasn’t alone, despite the loneliness that consumed her. She was nearing her delivery date, and the nurse who came to check on her regularly had confirmed it during her last visit.“It won’t be long now, Ms. Iris,” the nurse had said softly, a hint of sympathy in her eyes. “You need to rest as much as you can.”But how could Iris rest? She had spent the last month locked up in this room, her fate uncertain, surrounded by enemies who were waiting for the moment she became vulnerable. She knew that once she gave birth, her life would be in even gr

The once vibrant Kendrick mansion, always buzzing with activity, now stood still, suffocating in an air of despair. The echoes of laughter and lively conversations had faded, replaced by heavy silence. Ivy had locked herself in her room for days, refusing to come out, refusing to speak. No one dared to disturb her any longer—not even Mrs. Rose, who had tried relentlessly to get through to her.Inside her room, Ivy sat curled up in a corner, her eyes swollen from crying. Tear-streaked lines ran down her cheeks, her once-perfect appearance now unrecognizable. She had refused to eat, to sleep, or to let anyone in. Her world had crumbled in the blink of an eye, and now she was drowning in her own guilt and shame. Everything she had built—her career, her reputation, her self-worth—was gone.Another knock came at the door, this time softer than before.“Ivy,” Mrs. Rose’s voice filtered through the heavy wooden door, her tone gentle but firm. “Please, sweetheart, you need to eat something.

“You joined mum in maltreating that poor girl. You made sure you seized every opportunity to humiliate her.”Her hand shook as she stared at his name on the screen, debating whether to answer. After a few long seconds, she took a deep breath and pressed the call button, holding the phone to her ear.“Ivy,” Ryan’s voice came through, calm but firm. “We need to talk.”She swallowed hard, her throat dry. “Ryan, I... I’m sorry.”“I know you are,” he said quietly. “But being sorry doesn’t change what’s happened.”Her chest tightened, tears welling up in her eyes again. “I didn’t mean for things to get this bad. I didn’t... I didn’t know it would come to this.”“Ivy, you need to understand something,” Ryan said, his tone serious. “What you did... what we did... it has consequences. You can’t hide from this forever.”She sniffed, wiping away a tear that had fallen onto her cheek. “I know. I just... I don’t know how to fix it.”Ryan sighed on the other end of the line. “It’s not about fixing it
The Contracted Stripper Chapter 189
The hospital’s sterile, quiet air weighed heavily on Mrs. Rose as she walked briskly down the corridor, her high heels echoing against the linoleum floor. The scent of disinfectant stung her nose, but it was the least of her worries. Her mind was tangled in the chaos of her crumbling family. She had always prided herself on being in control, but now, everything was falling apart, and she could barely keep up.She arrived at Dr. Parker’s office, her heartbeat quickening as she knocked on the door. The familiar voice of the doctor called her in, and she took a deep breath before stepping inside.Dr. Parker sat behind his desk, his usual calm and collected demeanor intact. His brown hair was neatly combed, and his hazel eyes flickered with knowing confidence. He looked up, his gaze locking onto hers as she closed the door behind her.“Rose,” he greeted, his tone neutral but laced with understanding. “I wasn’t expecting you this early. What’s happened?”Mrs. Rose sighed, running a hand t

Mrs Rose's heart pounded in her chest a mixture of relief and fear swirling inside her. They were playing a dangerous game, one that could easily spiral out of control if they weren’t careful. But they had come too far to turn back now.“So, we focus on Ken first,” she said firmly, her voice steady despite the turmoil in her mind. “Then we deal with Bella, and finally, we’ll bring Ryan under our control.”Dr. Parker nodded, his expression serious. “Yes, but we must be swift. The longer we wait, the more risks we take.”Mrs. Rose’s fingers clenched around the vial as she stood up from her chair. “I’m tired of waiting. Let’s finish this.”Later that evening, Mrs. Rose returned to the mansion, her mind racing with the details of her conversation with Dr. Parker. She entered the grand dining room, where Mr. Kendrick sat at the head of the table, staring blankly at the food in front of him. He looked even more frail than he had that morning, his once-strong presence diminished into somethi

The tension in the air was thick as Mrs. Rose stood inches away from Dr. Parker in his dimly lit office. Their conversation had taken a dark turn, but as always, there was an undercurrent of something else—something much more primal between them. The weight of their shared secrets seemed to pull them together, and before either could think twice, they had closed the gap between them.Dr. Parker’s hands found Mrs. Rose’s waist, pulling her closer as their lips collided in a heated, passionate kiss. It wasn’t just desire; it was desperation, a shared hunger that had grown more intense with every plot they devised. Their mouths moved against each other’s with urgency, tongues intertwining as they devoured each other like two people starved for affection. Every touch was a spark, every breath shared between them a reminder of the danger they were both neck-deep in.Dr. Parker’s hand trailed up to the nape of Rose’s neck, pulling her even closer as if the kiss could erase the uncertaint
