Semua Bab That Stranger Lying Beside Me: Bab 1671 - Bab 1680

When Michael was welcomed into the living room, Francis asked the servant to pour tea for him. "Michael, I was just about to look for you." Michael did not take the tea since he had his guard up against Francis. "You're looking for me because of Evelyn's matter, right?" "Have you also heard about it? Evelyn isn't in her right mind now, how could she do such a thing? I'm angry at her." Michael couldn't stand looking at how Francis was putting up an act. He said lightly, "Mr. Gurney, I heard that Evelyn killed more than one person." Francis and Frederick were both shocked. "What do you mean?" "Don't you know?" Michael asked, "Evelyn has already killed someone else before she ordered Jacqueline to poison Valeria. Jacqueline has confessed that Evelyn had given her poison and ordered her to commit murder. Evelyn's bodyguard was the one who supplied the poison, and he has already confessed to his crimes after being arrested." Francis and Frederick looked a

The news that Michael had become Evelyn's lawyer spread quickly. Wayne was very angry, so he called Michael and asked, "Did you cut ties with William?" "Not yet, but it's hard to say after today." "What's wrong with you? Why did you agree to be Evelyn's lawyer? Aren't you declaring war against William if you do this? He has always been protective of the people close to him, but you're defending his wife's murderer. Do you know that William would kill you in the future?" Michael sneered and said, "From the day you took Azalea home, my friendship with William was no longer the same as before. It's time for me to choose a side now. I can either maintain a friendship with him or stand with the Gurney family. Although William and I have been friends for many years, he did not give me much benefit. Instead, he has always suppressed everywhere. Why should I stay loyal to a friend who doesn't give me any benefits?" Wayne wasn't as angry and anxious after he heard Michae

Valeria was unhappy. "What are you up to? Abbie is extremely anxious right now and she absolutely despises Leonard. Why do you want her to marry him?" "Honey, don't worry, I haven't finished my explanation yet. I just asked Abbie to agree to the proposal, but I didn't ask her to marry Leonard, right?" "You want Abie to pretend to agree first and think of a solution after that?" "That's right, you're so smart!" William nodded. "You can ask Abbie to agree to Leonard's proposal, but she needs to lay out a few conditions." "What are the conditions?" Valeria asked. William smiled and said, "She has to ask for something that Leonard can't complete in a short period of time and you need to ask Helen to bring it up. After all, wouldn't it make more sense to be a parent to make decisions for the sake of their daughter's happiness?" Obviously, Helen was unwilling to let Abbie marry Leonard. If Helen made an excessive request, Leonard would definitely have no c

Azalea was aching all over when she opened her eyes the next morning. There was no one when she turned to look beside her, but she could hear the sound of running water from the bathroom. Azalea heaved a sigh of relief when there was someone taking a shower inside. Last night, Michael had helped her into the room and he immediately pounced on her before she could even turn on the light. Of course, Azalea didn't refuse him. Although she willingly pleasured Michael, she wasn't completely in a daze.  She didn't know why, but she felt that the man she had sex with wasn't Michael. Just as Azalea was thinking about it, the bathroom door opened and Michael came out in a neat outfit. Azalea's doubts were dispelled when she saw Michael and she gave him a bright smile. She said delicately, "Michael!" Michael was not as enthusiastic as last night and he said flatly, "I have something to do in the company, so I'll leave first! You can go back after h

After Anna drove Helen to the Howard family's mansion, she accidentally realized that Raymond was there as well. Valeria invited Helen to sit down while Raymond took his nephews to the children's play area in the garden with Anna.  Helen didn't waste any more time. "Valeria, I came to talk to you about Abbie. She asked Leonard to come to our house and told us that she would marry him. I didn't agree with her decision, but she adamantly went against us. It made me so anxious that I came to you. Valeria, can you help me persuade her?" Valeria had already known Abbie's decision from the start, and she said after thinking for a while, "You know how temperamental she is. Since she has decided to do this, I'm afraid it will be useless to persuade her. On the contrary, it will make her go against you even more." "Then what should we do? I can't just stand by and watch her marry a man who already has a child. You said that Leonard isn't a good guy as well. I knew that h
