บททั้งหมดของ Tempted By A Handsome Stranger: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

"Stay here forever, Kia. Be my lover."Kia was still trying to process all of Byan's words, which she initially thought were just empty talk, but now she wasn't so sure anymore.The dark eyes of the man in front of her looked so serious and... sincere.But seriously, had she just been asked by a gigolo to be his lover?? Kia must be out of her mind if she accepted a gigolo's offer, even more foolish than when she had chosen to be with Alex!Being betrayed with Tessa had hurt enough, so what would it feel like if she had to accept that her lover was giving sexual pleasure to other women? No, it was completely absurd!Even though, truth be told, the long-haired girl couldn't deny the strange flutter in her chest when a man as handsome and tender as Byan confessed that he liked her and wanted her as his girlfriend.Byan was... every woman's dream man. Besides being handsome and gentle, he was also very perceptive. He could stir Kia’s desires to soar high. He was exceptionally skilled in

"Men. Ugh. Why are they all such bastards?!" The woman in the white dress then gulped down the dark liquid in her glass, emptying it in just a few sips. She didn’t care if the intoxicating drink would rob her of her senses, especially after downing her fifth glass. Kia pouted, sighing heavily as she rested her face in her hands on the bar counter. Her mind drifted back to the photo of a beautiful pregnant woman she had seen on Byan’s desk. "I guess I should just stop hoping because this is all so exhausting," she mumbled, her blurry gaze fixed on her now-empty glass. Kia felt so foolish, thinking Byan would be different from that jerk Alex. But it turned out, Byan was even worse. Byan. Kia's brown eyes blinked slowly as she thought of that handsome face. Come to think of it, it made sense that Byan would be worse than Alex. He was a gigolo and ridiculously attractive. Isn’t it true that the more handsome the man, the more of a bastard he is? "Another one!" Kia shoute

Byan drove down the highway at a steady speed. His dark eyes occasionally glanced to the side, where the beautiful figure beside him was fast asleep. A faint smile spread across his lips. Relief filled his chest as he reached out, gently brushing the long black hair that cascaded over the girl’s shoulders.Kia was likely still under the influence of the alcohol she had drunk, making her sleep deeply. Byan was incredibly grateful he had found Kia in time. He would have been furious, perhaps destroyed Bara, if his stepbrother had dared lay a hand on her.Now that the misunderstandings were starting to clear up, Byan felt free. Kia had learned about Alana, and he loved her reaction—crying upon hearing the story of his late wife.Behind all her teasing and wild behavior, Kia was truly sweet. She was also incredibly sincere and vulnerable. She was just good at hiding it, making people misjudge her.Byan’s mind drifted back to the first time he had met her at the club, when Kia had been s

"Alex, it hurts!" Kia screamed as Alex yanked her long hair and dragged her from the car towards the VIP elevator. Tears welled up in Kia's eyes, reflecting the pain in her scalp from being pulled so hard and the constant disrespect she endured from Alex. Kia kicked Alex's leg with all her might, hoping to fight back, but it only fueled his anger. With deliberate force, Alex pulled Kia's long hair even harder, forcing her head down. The girl was forced to walk unsteadily, her head bowed. "Alex!" Kia screamed again. She tried to claw at Alex's hand that was yanking her hair, but the man seemed impervious to pain and continued to drag Kia until they finally entered the iron box that was the VIP elevator. BRUUG!! Kia groaned softly as Alex slammed her body against the cold, hard elevator wall. The right side of her face that hit the wall throbbed, and even her ears were ringing. Kia shook her head slowly as her vision blurred. She was dizzy. In fact... there was blood dripping fro

"Why are you still standing there, Kia? Come here and sit next to me," Byan said, laughing silently at Kia's pale face and the shocked expression that was so obvious on Alex's face.Kia swallowed hard, her throat tightening as she heard Byan's deep, husky voice reverberate through the air. It sent a shiver down her spine, leaving her body trembling."You two know each other?" Alex was the most surprised by his client’s statement, calling Kia by her name as if they were already familiar. He frowned and looked sharply between Byan and Kia."Know each other?" Byan repeated, raising one thick eyebrow as he met Alex’s gaze. "Kia is the only reason I chose Guntoro & Partners Law Firm to consult on my club, Beautiful Paradise," he said bluntly. "I believe you owe her a thank you, Mr. Alex. She’s the one who convinced me."Kia remained silent, unsure of what to say. My God, how stupid could she be to think the man she slept with was nothing more than a gigolo—when in fact, he was a CEO!Aaarg
