All Chapters of The Boy Behind The Red Door: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Lesley's temples throbbed as she woke up from her short, light sleep. She forced herself to get up and sit on the bed. She massaged her forehead, hoping to ease the headache. She had only been able to sleep for two hours because of everything that had happened yesterday—most of all, last night.Why did Kieran act that way? What did she do that made him angry? And what did he and Avery do in that room? She saw the woman naked! Her chest tightened at the thought. The answer is obvious, but she can't bear to accept it. She felt suffocated. She stood up and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower. Even though she felt so weak and her spirit was at its lowest, she decided to confront Kieran about what happened last night. And she will make sure to speak up this time.Lesley is determined to do everything to keep their relationship. She loves him so much, more than herself or anyone else in the world. They went through a lot only to end up like this? No. She will not allow it. She

Lesley felt a pang in her chest. She hid her hands under the table, placing them on her lap while she clenched."Boss refused them at first because it was too old-fashioned," Iston continued. "But Avery's father was very insistent. He offered to double the support as long as Boss accepted his daughter. Due to his relentless plea, Boss finally agreed, but she still hasn't promised to get the two married. She will only allow it if both Avery and Kieran agree. The head of the Sy found that condition fair and agreed with only an engagement for the meantime. And they have been a huge help ever since. The Kingsleys are rich, but there is a limit to that. Especially since they only have a few businesses left. Fortunately, Sir Kieran has returned to help Boss manage businesses in Europe and the entire Crimson Clan."Lesley suddenly felt a strange pain inside her chest from Iston's words. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she stared at the cup of coffee. "Thank you, Iston. I appreciate your hone

"Where are you going? I'm not done asking you!""What else do you want to know? We already told you everything!""I don't buy it! Her injuries are not consistent with someone who fell off a cliff. Tell me the truth! Who hurt her?!"Because of the noise of Iston and Gracy arguing, Lesley woke up from her deep sleep. She slowly opened her eyes as she gradually regained consciousness.She blinks a few times while examining the white ceiling before realizing where she is. Even though her whole body is aching and her head is spinning, she forces herself to sit up to find out what happened after losing consciousness earlier. She scanned herself and saw bandages covering most of her body. Is she in Iston's clinic? She was sure she had heard his voice earlier."Cat got your tongue? Is it because you can't dispute my findings?" Lesley recognized it was Iston's voice. "Because you know I'm right, don't you?! I've been treating injuries for years, and her wounds did not come from falling off a

The woman's words were absurd and unbelievable. Is it really possible for Maridona to enter her mind? Lesley finds it hard to believe, but she can't push her away. Maridona's embrace is warm and comforting, as if the woman's arms are healing her soul. It is only a dream, but it feels... real.Lesley could not help but hug the woman too. At the same time, her tears flowed. Even though she hasn't told the reason for her anguish, she feels that Maridona completely understands.Her entire being felt the connection between them. It was as if she had nothing more to say or explain. She put aside her suspicions and doubt and sobbed on Maridona's shoulders, bawling like there was no tomorrow."Why am I still alive? Why did you let me live if this is what's going to happen to me?!" Lesley cried. "You shouldn't have allowed your father to put me in your womb... I shouldn't have suffered like this..."The woman stroked the back of her head tenderly. "I know, honey. I know... I'm so sorry you hav

After a few minutes, she let go of their embrace and shyly looked away. "So-Someone might see us. That's enough kisses for tonight," she said with an embarrassed face.Jacoben turned to the open door of her room and grinned. "So what if they see us? We're dating. It's normal."She gaped at him. "It is not normal when done in front of people.""Says who?"She cleared her throat. "Says me. You know how judgemental and conservative some people are."Jacoben laughed and then walked to the door and closed it. Her heart raced when she heard a click. "I don't care about what other people will say. But I do respect your opinion," he said, locking the door. "There. No one will see us."Her face turned red as a tomato when she met his intense gaze. Her heart was beating so fast and loud she could hear it. "Do-Do you want to, uhm, have sex?" she asked hesitantly.Jacoben's eyes widened while his brows rose in surprise at her question. "Pa-Pardon me?""I-I'm sorry. That came out ugly. I meant to
