After One Night 42. Behind the Scenes
The two of them froze in place.“Daphne, fix the back of your uniform,” Katarina said.Daphne instinctively checked the back of her uniform and and found that the fabric had indeed ridden up. She quickly smoothed it down. She wondered whether Katarina would tell Catherine about it.“And… leave your hair down. Cover your neck,” Katarina continued.The instruction made Alexander look at Katarina, as if silently asking for an explanation.“There might be a mark there,” Katarina said calmly. “Your mother is always unpredictable.”Alexander had nothing to say to that. His gaze shifted to Daphne, who had just untied her hair. Without thinking, he stepped closer, intending to help arrange it.“Mr. Harrington,” Katarina called out just as Alexander was about to raise his hand. “Your lips.”Alexander immediately froze. His hand slowly dropped, and his fingertips instinctively touched his own lips.“The left corner,” Katarina said when Alexander wiped the wrong side.Alexander turned his head s
After One Night 41. Caught Kissing
Daphne drew a breath. It seemed to catch in her chest before she finally let it out in one slow, heavy exhale. She slowly opened her eyes, only to find Alexander’s intense gaze waiting for her.“That... was just drunken talk,” Daphne said in a voice barely above a whisper.“You were drunk. I wasn’t.” Alexander paused for a moment before continuing. “So, I believe it’s time we settled our unfinished business.”Daphne could no longer think clearly. One thing was certain: she wanted that closeness to go further. Yet she was too embarrassed to admit what she wanted. Summoning the last of her courage, she opened her mouth.“What if I don’t want to?”Daphne’s reply made Alexander’s pupils dilate. In a fraction of a second, his hand reached for the nape of her neck. He tilted his head and kissed her on the lips.Daphne’s eyes closed immediately. Her fingers tightened around Alexander’s shoulders, as though her body hadn’t yet adjusted to the intensity. The kiss lasted only a moment, brief bu

“I’ll take my chances.”Daphne then reached for the electric razor and stood facing Alexander. Their height difference wasn’t too great; the top of Daphne’s head reached his nose. Even though she had stood close to him many times before, she still felt nervous.“Don’t you need shaving cream?”“No. It’s electric.”“Okay. So, where do I start?”“Anywhere you want.”“Maybe around your neck?”Alexander immediately tilted his head back, making it easier for Daphne to reach the area beneath his chin.There was a brief pause before Daphne finally brought the razor toward his neck, her movements hesitant and careful. Alexander, still tilting his head back, caught her hesitation in the mirror. He closed his eyes and smiled faintly.“You look like you’re going to war.”Daphne lowered the razor again just as it was about to touch his skin.“Because I’m trying not to hurt you,” she said in frustration. “Okay, okay. I’ll do it now,” she added, taking a breath to steady herself.Daphne’s right hand
After One Night 39. Clean Shave
“Mrs. Harrington, these are the transaction records you requested.”Catherine looked at the amount shown on the papers she had just received.Two transfers. £25,000 in total.“Both transfers were made to the business account of the brothel he visited. That’s quite a large amount for a one-night service.”A crooked smile appeared at the corner of Catherine’s lips.“Was she really that remarkable, Alexander?” she murmured before turning her attention to her associate. “Have you contacted the owner?”“Yes. I contacted her. However, she refused to say anything.”“Her loyalty is commendable. Alexander certainly didn’t waste his money.”“What should I do next?”“Just make sure Alexander’s visit to that place doesn’t become known to the media. As for the brothel owner, leave her to me.”“Yes, Ma’am. I’ll send her number to you,” the associate replied before leaving.Catherine stared straight ahead, beginning to connect all the information she had gathered.Alexander went to a brothel.A larg
After One Night 38. A Side He Never Knew
Daphne had just been about to head toward the front passenger door when Alexander opened the back door first.“Here.”Daphne stopped in her tracks and looked at Alexander. She hesitated to step inside, afraid the two maids might still be there, watching them.“I’ll sit with Richard in the front.”Alexander remained standing beside the open door, staring at her with a blank expression. “Here.” His tone was firmer this time, leaving Daphne no room to argue.“Your scarf,” Alexander said as he closed the door.Daphne pulled her scarf higher while glancing toward the mansion entrance. Thankfully, the two maids were already gone.A moment later, Alexander got into the car, with Richard taking his place behind the wheel. During the drive, Richard focused on the road, Alexander went back to reviewing the script he had studied the night before, while Daphne enjoyed the scenery outside.When she was about to look at the view through the opposite window, she instead caught Alexander moving his h
After One Night 37. Wild Thoughts
@alexander.harrington100 posts · 47 million followers · 0 following“He’s really not a social media person.”Daphne scrolled through Alexander’s Instagram page, looking at his posts. Every post was related to his career as an actor, from movie posters and award ceremonies to a few endorsements. There was absolutely nothing that showed his personal life.“So this is what Arthur meant by ‘exclusive’...”Daphne then started looking through the list of films Alexander had starred in. Among all the titles, one poster immediately caught her attention because it clearly featured Alexander alongside an actress. After reading the synopsis, she discovered that Alexander played a bodyguard whose mission was to protect the daughter of a wealthy conglomerate family.“Almost all of his movies are action films. This one looks more romantic.”Without thinking twice, Daphne chose the movie to watch before bed. At first, she planned to watch it on the TV, but changed her mind, thinking Emily might sud
