All Chapters of Tempted By A Handsome Stranger: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Kia let out a soft sigh as she gazed at the meeting room door that had remained closed for quite some time. What were Byan and Alex discussing? Why was it taking so long?A burning curiosity lingered in her mind, but Kia decided against eavesdropping. Whatever those two men were talking about, it was none of her business. She was only here to wait for Byan, to confront him directly about why he had hidden his true identity from her all this time.Ugh. How frustrating. Byan had made her look like a fool, making her think he was just a bartender and a gigolo... when in fact, he was the owner of Beautiful Paradise, the biggest nightclub in the city.When the sound of the door opening finally reached her ears, Kia immediately turned her head toward it. She exhaled in relief as she saw Byan stepping out. Her long, graceful strides carried her toward him.Byan smiled at the sight of the beautiful woman walking toward him. Even though Kia's face was scrunched up in a frown, she still looked

The pilot’s voice echoed through the plane, announcing that they would soon reach their destination, but Byan had no intention of letting go of Kia, who was sitting on his lap. The two stunning individuals were locked in a passionate kiss, their hearts pounding in unison. The kiss was sweet, though it also carried an undeniable intensity. "I'm fond of you, Byan." Kia’s previous words still echoed in Byan’s mind, throwing him into disarray. Although he knew the difference between 'fond' and 'love,' he couldn’t stop the explosion of emotions, as if a thousand colorful flowers were blooming inside his heart. Byan quickly unfastened the seatbelt from around Kia's slim waist, lifted her curvaceous body onto his lap, and captured her cherry-red lips that had been tempting him all this time. Kia eagerly responded to Byan’s deep and demanding kiss. Sitting on his lap, she wrapped her arms around his neck, closing her eyes and surrendering control to the dominant man in front of h

“Kia?”“Hm?”Byan gently caressed the silky smooth back of the woman in his embrace. Their bodies were tightly entwined on a bed that was now a mess.Kia’s pillow had disappeared somewhere, but that wasn’t an issue—Byan happily offered his arm as a substitute.They had been making love for hours, and Byan knew that Kia was truly exhausted from satisfying his desires.But there was something that weighed on his heart, and Byan wanted to get it off his chest before this gorgeous woman fell into a deep sleep.“I want you to know what really happened. What Bara said earlier.”Kia was silent for a moment, trying to process his words.She was very sleepy after their long hours of passion, but the seriousness in Byan's voice instantly wiped away her drowsiness.At first, Kia wanted nothing more than to drift off, but what Byan had just said sparked her curiosity. Fulfilling Byan’s desires had drained her energy, though she had certainly enjoyed every moment of it.“Hm. You mean about Alana?”

Married??Kia suddenly froze in speechless silence upon hearing Byan's words.Did Byan just propose to her? Did she hear him right? But... how could it be? Haven't they only known each other for a few weeks?Okay, maybe more than just a few weeks. Almost two months, to be exact. Two months!!"Uhm, Byan—""You don’t have to answer right now, sweetheart." A soft chuckle escaped Byan’s lips as he watched Kia, confused and seemingly lost for words. So adorable."I’ll wait for your answer, no matter how long it takes, and trust me... I will never change my mind or take back my proposal," he said, smiling as he gazed into Kia's beautiful eyes."But... are you really sure you want to marry... me?" Kia asked, her curiosity piqued."I’ve never been this sure about any decision in my life," Byan replied with unwavering conviction."But... isn’t it a little... uhm...""What? Impulsive?" Byan finished Kia’s hesitant sentence with a blunt question.He then moved closer, their noses almost touching

Byan opened the door to his Presidential Suite when he heard the soft chime of the doorbell.After making sure the blanket was snugly covering Kia's body and confirming that she was still sound asleep, Byan quickly stepped out of the master bedroom and headed for the door."Hello, good evening, Byan," greeted a smiling face from behind the door.Byan returned the middle-aged man’s friendly smile. "Please, come in, Dr. Indra," he said, gesturing him inside.Dr. Indra had been the on-call medical officer at the Samudra family resort for many years. The two of them then entered and sat on the large dark-brown leather sofa.Dr. Indra placed his medical bag on the table and took a long look at the bandage wrapped around Byan’s right hand, now stained with blood seeping through the fabric."May I see your hand?" he asked.Byan raised his injured hand, glanced briefly at the blood-soaked bandage, and extended it toward the doctor."Well, well, have you been working too hard with that injured
