A Forbidden Night with a Stranger (English)
Yna Maria Cortes — the ultimate spoiled, happy‑go‑lucky heiress who lives life on her own terms. When her father tries to hand over the family business, she shrugs it off completely; work and responsibility are the last things on her mind.
Determined to teach her a lesson, her father turns to his trusted friend Eduardo — and his son, Alas Gabriel Dela Merzcid, steps up to the challenge. The deal is set: Yna will work as Alas’s personal secretary until she learns true discipline. Refuse, and she loses her allowance and fortune forever. Left with no choice, the spoiled princess is forced to do everything she hates — from waking up early to following strict rules — just to get her money back.
Slowly but surely, something changes. Beneath the hard work and strict schedule, Yna transforms into a dedicated, responsible woman who learns to care not just for herself, but for everyone around her. And as days pass, her heart begins to fall for Alas — quietly, deeply, and secretly. Just when she gathers the courage to confess her feelings, Janus, her ex‑boyfriend, suddenly returns, begging for her forgiveness and a second chance.
But fate has an even bigger shock waiting. Before she can choose between two men, Yna discovers a terrifying truth: she is pregnant. And the father? Not Alas, not Janus — but a stranger she shared one unforgettable night with two months ago.
Now, Yna faces the hardest battle of her life — to protect her secret, find her strength, and decide if she can build a future with the man she loves, even when the truth could ruin everything.

Chapter: Chapter 11YNA walked into the office and found Alas sitting in his swivel chair, twisting a pen between his fingers. She ignored him—he probably was still upset with her, she thought. She went straight to her own seat, opened the folder, and pretended to study its contents.She heard the faint creak of his chair as he stood up. She kept her head down, feigning deep focus.“You still haven’t finished memorizing that? Come on—are you acting like a student who needs extra time to cram for an assignment? Yna, let me make one thing clear. You are not here just to be my trainee. You need to take responsibility, and I need that report as soon as possible.” His voice rose sharply, and it caught her completely off guard. She never imagined he would actually scold her like this. If he did this in front of everyone, she would definitely break down crying.She lifted her chin and glared at him, letting out a sharp huff. “So what? I don’t care about any of that. All I know is I’m here to do whatever it take

Chapter: Chapter 10YNA was on her way to Dela Merzcid Real Estate Company. She walked confidently down the hallway and ran straight into Lydia.She pushed her sunglasses up onto her head to get a better look. “I’m guessing you’re Lydia, right?” Without waiting for a reply, she slid her sunglasses back down over her eyes.“Yes, I am. Come along—we’ve got your training to start,” Lydia said gently, gesturing for her to follow. They stepped into Alas’ office, and he wasn’t there yet.Yna dropped the booklets onto the desk and settled into her seat. She’d dragged them all the way here even though she hadn’t memorized a single word from them—and honestly, she couldn’t care less.Lydia walked over to her holding a neat white folder.“Here—this isn’t too long to learn, but it lists all of Mr. Dela Merzcid’s important schedules, meetings, and appointments. You’ll need to keep track of this every day, and stay with him whenever he’s in meetings or working on projects,” she explained. Yna found herself liking Lyd

Chapter: Chapter 9ALAS’ stomach grumbled, and when he glanced at his wristwatch, he realized it was already past noon. He stood up and looked over to see Yna still at her desk—scrolling through her phone instead of memorizing the documents he’d given her.“Let’s go get lunch,” he offered. He didn’t want her going hungry, and he’d feel guilty if he let her skip a meal.Yna lifted her head to glare at him. “Go ahead. I can eat perfectly well without you,” she replied sarcastically, turning her attention right back to her screen.Alas just shook his head and said nothing more. He’d learned he needed to keep his temper in check every time he was around her. She really was as stubborn as they came.He went to the company canteen alone. He was never picky about food, so he ate what was available without complaint.When he returned to the office, Yna was still glued to her seat. “Hey, go have your lunch now,” he said firmly, settling into his swivel chair and sorting through the pile of papers on his desk.

Chapter: Chapter 8ALAS shook his head as he walked toward the conference room. He couldn’t get over how much his childhood friend had changed. He never imagined she’d turn out to be so… well, so difficult. From the way she’d snapped at him earlier, it was clear she didn’t remember him at all. Twenty years ago, they’d been inseparable—attached at the hip, practically. But that was a lifetime ago, and they now lived in completely different worlds.So much had changed since then, and he’d stopped expecting things to go back to how they used to be. He knew they’d never be as close as they were before.Lydia met him along the way and opened the conference room door for him. He walked straight in and took his seat at the head of the table.“Lydia, make sure to take down every detail we discuss,” he instructed.Lydia nodded and opened her tablet. They relied on modern technology now—for clearer notes, and to make sharing files to their computers much easier.The meeting was all about the upcoming merger betwe

Chapter: Chapter 7ALAS woke up extra early that day and took his time getting ready. He slipped into a perfectly tailored suit that fit him like a glove—one that brought out all his best features and made his whole presence feel even more commanding. He looked so effortlessly handsome that anyone who laid eyes on him would surely stop and stare. He ran his favorite Brazilian wax through his hair to get that neat, polished look, then finished off with a spritz of his go-to perfume. Damn, he looked so good, he almost had to admit it to himself.He just wanted his aura to be at its best, so he’d feel confident later when he finally saw Yna. It was her first day of work, and he was genuinely excited to see his childhood friend again.He headed straight to his office. “Lydia, are the documents ready?” he asked—formal, but not overly strict or serious.“Yes, Sir. They’re on your desk,” Lydia replied, glancing up at him. “There’s something different about you, Sir. You look even more handsome than usual these

Chapter: Chapter 6Yna was bored out of her mind. She’d spent the entire day glued to her phone, just scrolling through the internet. When she finally stood up and glanced at her watch, it read three in the afternoon. Perfect timing, she thought. She decided to take a shower and head out for some shopping — way better than wandering off to a bar, which she’d sworn never to step foot in again.She dressed casually in ripped jeans and a white off‑shoulder top, finishing the look with her favorite pair of Vans. Nothing fancy, since she didn’t plan to stay long at the mall anyway.As she made her way downstairs, her father spotted her. “Where are you off to?” he asked. She braced herself — he’d probably get annoyed again seeing her go out. This was actually the first time she was leaving the house in a whole month, ever since that terrible incident at the bar.She walked all the way to the front door, then turned back and gave him a soft smile. “Just going shopping, Dad. Don’t worry — bar hopping is the las
