Semua Bab That Stranger Lying Beside Me: Bab 281 - Bab 290

Lamont was surprised when he heard Valeria making her plans with a smile. Valeria's personality change was too shocking as she had always been a good and innocent child. She had definitely inherited Archer's cunning mind after all. That was because she was acting like a split image of Archer himself! William sat in his office in Howard Group as he read Marcus' texts while listening to Steven's report. "The banquet is going to be in Halcyon Hotel, one of the hotels run by Declan. Charles, Elizabeth and Mason have all been invited as well. However, I think that Elizabeth will refuse the invitation because of her injuries. But that doesn't stop us from dealing with the others right?" "Declan is a drug addict, isn't he?" William asked. "He's both a drug addict and a drug dealer. Are you thinking of using this against him?" Marcus had caught on immediately. "Yes, let's plan the downfall of his hotel tonight. After all, he's been using this hot

The hall was filled with arriving guests when Valeria made it back after she had finished her conversation with William. Mason felt a little awkward when he arrived and saw that Valeria and Kyrie were welcoming their guests with open arms. He decided to shake it off and greeted Valeria with a smile instead, "Congratulations on your promotion, Valeria!" Valeria could not offend any guests as the host, so she could not ignore him even though she detested Mason. Instead, she welcomed him warmly as well, "Welcome, Mr. Eich!" Kyrie interrupted her, "Greetings Mr. Eich, I've heard that your new company is doing well!" Mason glanced at Valeria before explaining quickly, "Of course not, we've only just started operating after all." Valeria was surprised to hear that Mason had started a new company. However, she decided to ignore it as she had no ties with him anymore. Mason was disappointed at Valeria's cold reaction as he had expected her to be shocke

Once the door had been opened, Charles was confused as he stared into the darkroom. What the hell was going on? He was trying to figure out what was happening when a strange smell reached his nose. He tried to leave the room after a shriek, but a hand caught him and pulled him in before he could react. Once Lamont had tossed the unconscious Charles onto the bed, he turned the lights on to check the two figures that were lying together. "Imagine how confused they would be when they see each other tomorrow!" He chuckled. Valeria sneered at the figures coldly with narrowed eyes, "This was Ashley's scheme. After all, she had planned to marry me off to a b*stard while she was planning to marry a millionaire. I wouldn't be safe right now if William hadn't saved me. I swore to get revenge on them after that incident!" Lamont looked at Ashley's figure in disgust, "You're too kind, Miss. I would have taken things a step further." "You wouldn't be able to stop Ashle

Charles put on his clothes with a confused expression before being led out of the room by the police with Ashely trailing behind. The two were pushed into a police car by the police. Mason, who had been knocked out, also woke up and was taken outside by the police with a dazed look on his face. As he was pushed into the police car, Mason saw Ashley and Charles being brought out. He was shocked when he saw their disheveled appearances and was trying to figure out what had happened but a firm voice interrupted his thoughts. "Bring the two of them back to the police station and interrogate them for the charges of a s*x trade!" A s*x trade? Did Charles and Ashley sleep with each other? Mason was so caught up in his thoughts that the voices of the police faded out. Meanwhile, Valeria had fallen asleep in William's arms after a passionate night. He kissed her face and wiped the sweat on her forehead before getting off the bed to grab his phone. He had rece

After Kyrie made the phone call to report the news, there were no longer any updates from him. Ronald couldn't sleep and he kept calling Kyrie and Ashley on his phone. Six long hours later, Kyrie finally picked up the call at 4 in the morning.  Kyrie said that he was taken to the police station for a routine inquiry and he was just released. If he was taken to the police station, then Ashley should also be there.  Ronald and Julie were lost in thoughts for another half an hour before Kyrie rushed to the hospital and told them about what had happened in the Halcyon Hotel. Ronald had already read the news and he knew that the Declan was in danger. He was now concerned about Valeria. What was her current situation? He called her multiple times, but he could not get through. Kyrie was not surprised when he heard that Valeria was not picking up, but it was surprising to hear that Ashley wasn't either, "Didn't Miss Evans leave quite a while ago? Why
