Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

Archer also thought of it, “Yes, I also think that there is another reason behind why William doesn’t want to introduce Valeria to them. I suspect that it’s because of what happened to his mother back then.”
Natalie sighed, “If the Floyd family has a problem with Valeria, should I go and explain it to them?”
“Let’s ask William first and see what going on.” Archer didn’t agree to her suggestion, “Come back first and let me call William to ask about it later.”
At the entrance of Acma Corporation, Talitha stopped the car and strode straight into the company. However, the security guard stepped forward to stop her.
“May I ask who are you looking for, miss?”
“I’m looking for Hardy!” Talitha was not in a good mood.
“Do you have an appointment with our president? I can’t let you in if you don’t.” The security guard did not let her go.
Her anger finally erupted.
“I have to make an appointment to meet Hardy? Are you blind? I’ve been here several times, but you still want me to make an appointment?”
“This… This is the company’s rule!”
“Bullshit! F*cking call Hardy right now and tell him that Talitha is here! Let’s see if he’ll meet me or not!”
Talitha cursed loudly and shoved the security guard away, and he did not dare to use force on Talitha, so he was in a state of awkwardness. Not long after, Paisley walked out of the elevator in high heels. When she saw the commotion in the hall, her gaze turned gloomy as she walked over quickly.
“Talitha!”
“You’re here just in time! Your watchdog is blocking me and not letting me in. Ask him to let me in!” Talitha ranted.
Paisley smiled, “Talitha, please don’t take it to heart. This security guard is new, so he doesn’t know you!”
While explaining, she scolded the security guard, “What’s wrong with you? Why didn’t you let Miss Anderson in?”
“I didn’t know who she was…” The security guard said as he tried to hide his feelings of frustration. He had clearly been ordered to not let Talitha into the company, but now he was being reprimanded for it.
“Alright, no need to explain anymore! Remember this next time, she doesn’t need to make an appointment to come in!” Paisley said and held Talitha’s hand, “Don’t be angry, I will accompany you to go up!”
Talitha snorted and shook off Paisley’s hand, leading the way to the elevator. After entering the elevator, she questioned Paisley coldly, “Why can’t I get through to your brother’s phone? What is he trying to do?”
Paisley maintained the smile on her face, “My brother is in a meeting, so he had to turn his phone off. Just wait for him in his office, and he’ll see you after he’s done.”
“He’s in a meeting? Is that really why I can’t get through to him? I’ve already called him for two days, so he’s been in a meeting for two days straight? What meeting is that important?” Talitha asked with a sneer.
“Um…” Paisley could only smile awkwardly.
Talitha didn’t care about her feelings at all, “Ms. Anthony, you should know why I’m here, right? You don’t have to find any more excuses for him. Just ask him to come and see me!”
The smile on Paisley’s face disappeared, and she brought Talitha straight to Hardy’s office after the elevator reached the floor.
Hardy was not in the office, so Paisley told his secretary, “Go find Mr. Anthony and tell him that Miss Anderson is looking for him for something urgent.”
After that, she disregarded Talitha and left the room. Talitha waited in Hardy’s office for a few minutes, and he finally came in.
Seeing her, he smiled, “Talitha! Why are you looking for me?”
“Hey, are you still pretending now?” Talitha sneered, “Are you not going to explain the scandal that happened between you and Natasya?”
“Explain? I want to, but I really have no way to explain it to you! Your sister planned all of it. She approached me suddenly, and I don’t know what happened to me, but I couldn’t control myself and fell into her trap!”
Hardy put all the blame on Natasya, “Talitha, to tell you the truth, I know it’s wrong to be with her, but I can’t control myself! She has a fatal attraction to me, and I can’t resist her at all! I suspect that she has fed me a vermin.”
Talitha’s thoughts were in a mess after listening to what he had to say. Did he really eat Natasya’s blood vermin?
Now that Hardy had the same feelings for her and Natasya. What should she do?
Talitha was in an extreme panic now, but she tried to control herself, “I don’t care. I am pregnant, so you must give me a solution!”
“I also want to solve this, but I really can’t control myself!” Hardy sighed, “Talitha, you know that I’m going to marry you, and I already have a child with you and even officiated my relationship with you! I don’t know why this is happening to me, and I really can’t help myself against Natasya!”
“So you’re going to cheat on me?”
“I don’t want to, but I can’t resist Natasya unless…” Hardy hesitated.
“Unless what?” Talitha asked.
“Unless I don’t see her in my life and have no relationship with her, then I won’t have that strange feeling towards her!”
“You mean to let her leave?” Talitha retorted, “She has been disfigured and her reputation is so bad now. How can she be willing to leave? And where can she go if she leaves?”
“If she’s unwilling to leave, can you think of a way? For example, ask your parents to help you? Persuade her!”
Hardy coaxed her patiently, “Talitha, I’m not afraid to tell you. It’s better if I can’t see Natasya. When I see her, I can’t help but want to be close to her. As long as she seduces me just a little bit, I will be hooked onto her. Otherwise, I will be extremely distressed!”
“Uhm… It’s actually this serious?”
“Yes, I’m very distressed! Talitha, you’re the only one who can solve this for me. I have no other way, and there’s nothing I can do!”
What else could Talitha say after Hardy put it that way? It seemed that the only thing to do was to find Natasya and let her take the initiative to leave.
As she thought about it, Hardy’s cell phone rang. He looked at it with a painful expression on his face, “Talitha, she just sent me a message to ask me to go to the hospital and see her!”
He handed the phone to Talitha and asked her to read the message sent by Natasya. When she saw the message, her blood boiled.
“What a shameless b*tch! She still wants to seduce you with her disfigured face? How shameless!”
Talitha burst into rage. Hardy sneered in his heart, but he put on a helpless expression, “What should I do? I can’t refuse her! If you don’t want to see me continue to interact with Natasya, you must find a way to stop her! I beg you!”
