All Chapters of One night with Mr. Lancaster: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Her entire body ached, especially the part between her thighs. It was five in the morning when he left her alone, or rather, her body alone. Very slowly, Ava picked her clothes and her shoes from the floor, tiptoed, and left the suite in haste.I did it! Well, this is definitely not a moment to be proud of, but I did it! Oh, Benny. This one is for you! Ava fought bravely not to cry.As much as possible, she didn’t want people to see her leaving the prestigious hotel, so she kept her head low. At that moment, all Ava wanted to do was take a shower to rub off the memories of her first time. She checked her phone while she waited for a cab on the street. Her inbox was filled with text messages from Helga. With each text message came a threat that became more disturbing.Ava decided to ignore it and went home.When she arrived at the Priestly house, Helga welcomed her with a slap. Smack! “You! You have one job, Ava! One f*cking job and you screwed it up!”Confused, Ava faced her stepmothe

Ava stared at the piece of fabric that Helga laid on her bed moments ago. “Aunt Helga, is this really necessary?”“Of course, trust me. Remember, we are doing this for Benny and the family.”She gulped. Last night’s ensemble was a horror for her to put on, she was thankful for the thick coat she insisted on taking with her. However, Helga found the smallest piece of fabric which she fondly calls a dress, and wanted Ava to try it on.“I’m not sure my father will approve of this,” Ava reasoned. She grew up in a very wholesome household and to this day, she practices the values she grew up with. Her clothing choices included.She’s not a prude but she is modest.Helga’s face turned beet red and she shoved the fabric on Ava’s chest with force. “Put this on and stop asking questions! I’m tired of your whining, Ava. Just tell me if you don’t want to do this so we can all kiss this house goodbye and your brother will never get his treatments! I can’t believe you! I’m trying to keep this famil

Gerald couldn't help himself. He's excited--too excited. The Lancaster family might be very successful when it comes to business but they were not really blessed with keeping a large family. Gerald had a daughter and a son. The daughter was Matthew's mother but she died at childbirth. Later on, Matthew's father died of a heart attack--it was said that he died of a broken heart and decided to join his wife in the afterlife. The youngest son, David, chose a completely different path. Not business related and one that definitely guarranteed no grandbabies from him. He joined the seminary at 16 and now he's a Reverend. Which meant that the Lancaster line ends with Matthew alone.This is why he is a very important link to continue the family legacy. To Gerald's eye, Matthew is the last hope to establish the future generation of Lancasters. Unfortunately, the Lancaster's are just not picky with their partners--they were fans of traditional relationships. Matthew had no prior experience w

Gerald sipped his tea, his wise eyes glimmered with too much happiness. To him, there's so much to do. As an older Lancaster, he was waiting for this to happen the moment Matthew turned 18 but his grandson had other 'interesting matters' in mind than starting to date, marry and procreate just like how he was meant to do.Matthew was cut from a different cloth, he went to university and decided he wanted to learn how to run the family business effectively because his father died and he will succeed Gerald as the CEO when the time is right. Gerald, who cherished his only grandson--allowed all of this to happen--because Matthew inherited his stubborn genes and wouldn't take 'no' for an answer.The young Lancaster did all that and is now the CEO of Lancaster Group of Companies for five years now. He had achieved all the plans he had in mind when he was younger and all that's left was to marry. Gerald couldn't barely keep his enthusiasm anymore because he was not getting any younger and if

As soon as Matthew and his men, along with Ava were out of earshot, Helga fumbled on her phone. She struggled to keep her fingers from trembling. "Come on, pick it up, Charles. Pick the damn phone up!""Mom, what are you going to tell Dad?""What else?!" She sneered, "I'm going to tell your father that he had to do something! I'm not going to sit and watch Ava be the lucky one while you rot here with us!""Hey! That's not very nice! I have call backs and auditions lined up!" Beatriz frowned at her mother's words.Helga rolled and eyes and continued calling her husband who was at work. "Do me a favor, Beatriz, go away while I sort this out!"**Charles Priestly runs a restaurant--one that he and his late wife started and it became successful, it became known in the state as an affordable yet delicious place where authenticity meets gastronomical experience. Over the years, four more branches emerged, all equally successful. However, because of his new wife and other daughter's taste fo
