The Wrong Night with Mr. Right Chapter 144 Escape
Alessia had to climb onto the chair and stand on tiptoe to reach it, her ankles protesting every movement.The window pane was missing, a lucky break for her.Through sheer will, she squeezed her body through the empty frame, mindful of the voices that could return at any moment.She dropped to the ground on the other side, her ankle twisting painfully.Beads of sweat formed on her forehead, and her skin paled from the agony.But she couldn’t afford to scream.She hobbled away from the factory, each step a symphony of pain and purpose.The suburban landscape she found herself in was unfamiliar.A field stretched before her, with tall grass that swayed in the breeze.Trees reached toward the sky, wildflowers dotted the ground.It was a scene of serenity that contrasted with her chaotic reality.The scent of earth and blossoms enveloped her, providing a stark contrast to the sterile captivity she’d endured.Birds chirped in the distance, the rustling leaves played a soft melody, and the
The Wrong Night with Mr. Right Chapter 145 Rescue
Alessia’s body went still, her breathing hitching as she turned, her gaze locking onto Logan’s face.Emotions swirled within her, a tumultuous storm that threatened to consume her.She opened her eyes wide, afraid to blink, believing Logan’s mirage would disappear if she did.She opened her mouth to speak, but before words could form, her world shifted.Darkness descended as her body surrendered to unconsciousness.Logan caught Alessia’s limp body just in time.He removed his suit jacket and draped it over her half-n*ked body.His heart clenched at the sight of her bloodied wrists and swollen face.Gingerly, he lifted her into his arms.He cradled her protectively and marched towards his car.Terence had just caught up with him, still catching his breath.‘Call the police,’ Logan ordered. ‘Have these two men arrested.’He carried Alessia to his car, carefully placing her in the backseat.The engine roared to life as he accelerated towards the nearest hospital.***Alessia’s eyelids fl
The Wrong Night with Mr. Right Chapter 146 Fallen for Him
‘Um, about the medical expenses, I’ll pay you back later.’ Alessia tried hard to recall if she had insurance, but her brain was still slow.Logan breathed heavily. ‘Is that all you have to say to me?’‘I already said thank you.’‘And?’‘And what?’Logan clenched his jaw.This time, when Alessia tried to get up again, he was less gentle. ‘Where the hell do you think you’re going?’‘To the bathroom,’ Alessia replied matter-of-factly.‘Oh.’ Logan rose and made way.He watched her shuffle into the en suite bathroom, the IV stand trailing comically behind her.Through the closed door, he called out, ‘Need a hand in there?’Alessia shouted back, ‘No, thank you!’Emerging from the bathroom a while later, Alessia scanned the room.‘What are you looking for?’‘My clothes.’Logan’s question was tinged with exasperation. ‘Still trying to leave? Why are you being so stubborn?’‘The doctor said I don’t have to stay here. I’d like to leave.’‘You need to rest. You can’t go home like this.’‘I’m not
The Wrong Night with Mr. Right Chapter 147 He’s Single
Alessia allowed herself to sink deeper, the water’s warmth enveloping her, wrapping her in a cocoon of solitude.The events of today seemed to ebb away, replaced by the tranquillity of the moment.With each breath, the tension that had clung to her shoulders began to loosen, the worries of the world fading into the distance.She drifted off.***Alessia’s eyes snapped open at the sensation of someone shaking her shoulders, jolting her awake.Her heart raced as her gaze met Logan’s.In the split second it took to process her surroundings, the realisation hit her—she was still submerged in the tub, utterly n*ked.Instinctively, her hands flew to cover her breasts, her cheeks flushing with a mixture of mortification and surprise. ‘What... what are you doing here?’His hands were still on her shoulders. ‘You’ve been in the bath for almost an hour. I knocked and called out, but you didn’t reply. I thought you might have drowned in here.’‘Oh.’ Alessia grimaced, embarrassed.Logan’s grip ti
The Wrong Night with Mr. Right Chapter 148 So Is She
Heath paused, as if deciding how much to reveal.Then he leaned forward. ‘Remember Donatella Pagano?’‘Sure.’ Alessia had helped Heath gather intel on the missing socialite.‘Turns out, her family and the police are not the only ones looking for her. During my investigation, I found out that the charity she’s involved in, Children’s Hope Foundation, sent men to track her down as well. I thought they were looking to recover the funds she’d embezzled, understandably. But that’s not all. After Mauro Benetti took over as the chairman, he’d slowly transformed the charity into a front for human trafficking. When Donatella absconded with his money, he knew the police would come looking and decided it was time to pull up stakes. So he sent a bunch of his operatives to abduct as many women as they could.’ Heath scoffed. ‘Shad said Benetti called it the last shipment.’‘How many women did they take?’ Alessia asked.‘Eighteen, as far as Shad can tell. Could be more. We are still looking.’‘I don
The Wrong Night with Mr. Right Chapter 149 A Binding Contract
Logan stared at Alessia, a myriad of emotions flickering across his eyes. ‘Are you sure about this?’‘Yes.’In the heartbeat that followed, he dipped his head, his kiss a swift thief that stole her breath.The patience he had exhibited for hours crumbled, a façade of restraint that had been politely upheld.The mantle of gentlemanliness was cast aside, its weight unnecessary now.No longer confined by propriety, Logan wrapped Alessia’s legs around his waist and carried her to the master bedroom.His breath caressed her ear as he laid her down on the big bed. ‘You’re fully awake now.’Alessia blinked. ‘Yes.’She was, indeed, fully present in the moment, her thoughts unclouded.Logan’s gaze bore into her. ‘Alessia, are you absolutely sure this is what you want?’Alessia rolled her eyes.She raised her right hand as if to swear an oath. ‘I, Alessia Jansen, of sound mind and body, hereby declare that my decision to sleep with Logan Wilde is made of my own volition, free from any form of c
The Wrong Night with Mr. Right Chapter 150 Beast in Heat
‘I want to nullify the contract,’ Alessia rasped. ‘I’m willing to pay the penalty.’Logan chuckled. ‘Maybe you’ll change your mind once you know what the penalty is.’He leaned down and whispered something in her ear, before starting to nibble her earlobe playfully.Alessia had no strength to lift even a finger.She put up a token protest. ‘You are a beast.’‘I’ll take that as a compliment.’‘It wasn’t meant as one.’As retribution, he pounded harder.‘I was wrong,’ Alessia gasped. ‘You are not a beast. You are a beast in heat.’‘That’s an expression for female animals.’‘Then what’s the equivalent for males?’‘There isn’t one.’ Logan pecked her lips. ‘Males are always in heat.’‘As I’ve found out to my cost,’ she muttered.Alessia turned her head, and a chill of realisation ran down her spine.The bedroom windows had been open the whole time, their curtains dancing like ghostly figures in the night breeze.She shrieked. ‘Logan! The windows are open!’‘Darling, we’re on the top floor.
The Wrong Night with Mr. Right Chapter 151 He’d Had It Coming
Logan stepped into the master bedroom, his footsteps softened by the plush carpet underfoot.The room was hushed, the only sound the gentle rise and fall of Alessia’s breathing as she lay curled beneath the covers.He couldn’t help but pause for a moment, admiring the serene sight before him.Sinking onto the edge of the bed, he gazed down at her with a mixture of fondness and reminiscence.It had been quite a night—one he would no doubt replay in his mind over and over again.And if she weren’t sound asleep, he might have wanted the night to continue.His phone vibrated on the nightstand.Logan picked it up when he saw Heath’s name flash across the screen and left the bedroom.‘Logan, I’ve got news. Jeramy’s been attacked in lockup, badly. He’s in the hospital.’Logan stood in front of the French window, his face impassive.He had little sympathy for a man like Jeramy, especially given the vile intentions he’d harboured.‘And how’s that my concern?’Heath’s tone tightened. ‘His testi
