Loving A STRANGER Chapter 468

Tory then gave them a cold glance, which scared them, and they drew their looks back without delay.
When Kylie walked out with cakes again, she somehow felt those staff members working nearby became so quiet all of a sudden.
"Please enjoy yourselves!" Kylie said, then handed out drinks and cakes to them.
"Have a taste, please." Kylie put a small cake in front of Tory.
Tory looked down at it for a while, the used a fork to pick up a small piece of it. "It's very delicious," he said and tasted it. "Can I bring a cake home?"
"Sure!" Kylie went back to the kitchen like a flying butterfly.
Carl and Meryl were both good cooks, and they were excellent at cheering their guests up, so people were all singing, dancing, and laughing around their table.
However, no matter how William told jokes, people still sat there like they were having a serious business meeting.
When it was just 10 minutes away from the ending of the competition, William gave it up and leaned on a pillar at the door. "Is there anything we've done wrong?"
"Probably because your dishes aren't delicious, or my cakes are too sweet." Kylie shrugged.
The director announced time was over, and the guests started to vote.
To everyone's astonishment, guests around Kylie and William's table all voted for them, while guests around Carl and Meryl's table all voted against them.
"Seriously?" Carl and Meryl couldn't believe their eyes. Their guests just gave them thumbs-up. Why do they now all vote against them?
Carl caught up with a guest who didn't walk away yet. "Hi, if you think the food is delicious, you can vote for us, not against us. Are you sure you made the right decision?"

The Thai replied in accented English, "I'm sure."
Those Thai didn't feel relieved until they walked far away. When Tory joined Kylie's group, they all ached to changed their seats.
However, Tory stopped them with his eyes, so they didn't dare vote for Carl and Meryl when the game ended.
In that case, Kylie and William won.
Friendship first, competition second. Carl and Meryl still gave Kylie and William a hug.
"We'll join the show again in the future to gain our honor back!" they said before the cameras.
"You're always welcome!" Kylie and William sent them gifts they prepared for them.
In the evening, Kylie told Dora Tory's request and her own thoughts when she was back in the hotel.
"No problem, but you need to do some pickup scenes tomorrow," Dora said.
"I'll stay here for one more day too." William winked at Kylie.
Kylie understood he was going to have fun in Thailand. "Be careful."
"Relax, I have boundaries," William said, then went back to his room, sinning along the way.
Dora patted Kylie's shoulder. "You did a better job than I thought. Have a good rest!"
"Thanks." Kylie stretched her arms. "Good night, Dora!"
Although it was a long day, Kylie was still energetic when she had a video call with Ethan.
"Are you still working?" Kylie lay on the bed with her two legs swinging.
Ethan covered his head in a pile of documents. "Yeah, it's a little tricky. How are you doing today?"
"Very well. Dora just said I did a better job than she thought." Kylie beamed.
Ethan slowly raised his eyes. When he saw Kylie's ample boobs almost jumping out from her sleeping gown, he made a cough.
"If you keep lying like this, I'm afraid I'll be busy working till the daybreak," he joked.

"Why?" Kylie glanced at her neckline, then pulled it down on purpose. "How is it now? Will you work faster?"
"I don't mind if you undressed." Ethan leaned backward in his executive chair and loosened his tie.
Kylie laughed and kissed the screen. "Honey, you're the best, and I believe you can solve all the problems in your way!"
"As for the acquisition, I had an idea to build the headquarters on the land, but an Italian businessman out of the blue offered a double price for it," Ethan explained. "I can give the land up, but he disrespected me in my ambition. Shouldn't I teach him a lesson?"
"Of course, you should." Kylie nodded. "You can kick his ass, baby."
"Ha-ha, ha-ha." Ethan was amused.
"Don't work too late. It's not good for your health," Kylie said.
"Put your phone on the bedhead, so I can watch you while sleeping," Ethan said with a tender smile on his face.
"I don't look good in a deep sleep." Kylie pouted but still listened to him.
"Slobbering, snoring, farting, what else can you do?" Ethan removed his tie and unfastened the first button of his shirt.
Seeing Kylie's desirable lying position, he was sexually excited.
Kylie pouted again and threatened. "Say that again, and I'll end this call!"
"Fine, I won't say it again." Ethan still smiled.
"Good night, honey." Kylie faced the screen of her phone.
"Good night, baby," Ethan said.
Kylie had worked all day long today, and she felt so tired now, but she only showed her happiness before Ethan. She was afraid Ethan might fly to Thailand and left his work behind if he found it out.
Kylie soon fell asleep after closing her eyes.
Hearing her light snore, Ethan touched her face on the screen. "It must be a very tiring day."
He wasn't dumb, nor blind, and he noticed the swelling on Kylie's face.
Ethan fixed his tender eyes on the girl in sound sleep until Kylie rolled her body and showed her sexy back.
If he kept watching, he would have to cool himself down with cold water again.
Ethan ended the video, then called Dora.
Dora watched today's film in her room, and she was surprised to receive Ethan's call. "What's up?"
"Did everything go well today?" Ethan asked in a deep voice.
Although it was a topic about Kylie, Dora was still happy to talk with Ethan.
She told him what Kylie had experienced today and what she was going to do tomorrow.
Knowing that the mysterious man was unwilling to show his face in the show, Ethan's voice became colder instantly. "Who is he?"
"I heard he's a frequent visitor here," Dora said. "He also has a son, and he comes here with his son for a vacation."
"Send me pictures of him now." Ethan made an order.

A Budding Scientist in a Fantasy World
Alice is a girl who loves science and lives on Earth. Then, suddenly, she was punted into another dimension. A dimension where magic and monsters roam the land, swords and sorcery reign supreme, and, for some reason, a System keeps dinging at her and telling her that her stats and levels are increasing. As someone who loves exploring mysteries, Alice is determined to get to the bottom of this mystery. After all, everything has to have a ‘cause,’ including the System, right? What to expect: This story is going to be a LitRPG set in a fantasy world. However, unlike many LitRPG’s, the system has both a definite beginning and definite limits to what it is able to accomplish – rather than a singularly omnipotent, omniscient being that is tied to the laws of the world, the way systems are usually presented in LitRPG’s, the system is close to both, but has definite limits and rules which it operates by. This story is also relatively slow, since that is my writing style. The main character also begins the story as a young, 15-year old girl who has yet to finish high school, and is going to explore more of the world around her as she grows as a person and starts to get her feet under her.

Tale of Family - Book 1 - WIP
The world is peaceful in 2063. Fusion reactor and Diamon battery had taken care of the energetical problem. Countries were stable. Automation was everywhere. Life wasn't hard anymore, at least not in the United States of Europe. Summer break is about to start and, finally, Zoe will turn 18 and be able to play the game, Binding Fate. A simple video game, a vrmmo, but what swam under its surface wasn't simple. Power, fame and money were but the tip of the iceberg... State: Hiatus because I've an idea for another story. Quick F.A.Q. : - Yuri/female homosexual relation? Yes.- Yaoi/male homosexual relation? Maybe.- Explicit Sexual Content? Maybe.- Full Fledged Tragedy? No. Never, ever ever.- Body Modification/Body Horror? Yes. (Note: what one person think is body horror can be acceptable for someone else. If you want to see to what length I can go, read a bit of The Other Labyrinth. However, I won't go as high as quickly in the body mod/horror, so relax.- Gore? Hell yeah! I love gore! spraying blood and viscera etc...- Torture? Hurgh... maybe? Idk. Not at the start at the very least.- Memory loss/erasing? No, or at least not permanently. I basically hate this trope because it's like taking out all the character grow from a character, destroying everything that makes them what and who they are. so no.- Overpowered protagonist? You will see mufufu...- Will characters stay relevant seeing how numerous they are? YES, MOTHERFUCKING YES, I hate when characters relevance decay over time for no good reasons ^^'- Plot Armor? First of all, a definition: "Sometimes referred to as "Script Immunity" or a "Character Shield", Plot Armor is when a main character's life and health are safeguarded by the fact that he's the one person who can't be removed from the story. Therefore, whenever Bob is in a situation where he could be killed (or at the least very seriously injured), he comes out unharmed with no logical, in-universe explanation." (courtesy of https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PlotArmor I love you guys ^^) So now that this is said, do my characters have plot armour? No, because I always have an in-universe explanation, even if you don't know it yet ^^ Something is illogical or don't make sense? Read more, the answer is surely in the story ^u^- Balanced system? If you want to crush numbers and have a perfect equation balancing all the system, that's not the story for you. The system is more like a living being, and the rewards aren't forcibly tied to the level of the player. In fact, the system is purposely unbalanced ^^' Author's note: My goal here is to write a slow-paced story revolving around the bonds linking the characters, be them family, friends or lovers. Fight will be part of it, but I intend to build an actual interesting world before making truly large-scale battle happen, because the bigger a battle is, the larger its causes and effects are. I also aim at telling a story about how the characters actually help each other becoming stronger, more stable and happier. I particularly despise the lone MC type that becomes so powerful that every other character of the current setting become irrelevant beside being hostage targets, so this will not happen. I also like crafting, arrays, blacksmithing etc... so there may be crafting. Another thing I like is management game like sim-city or the like, so this while also appears, keeping in mind that I like MC's that make people around them stronger... For the tropers around here, a list of tropes that I like to use (note that I may not use all of them ^^) (this list will be updated as I dive deeper and deeper into our dear trope wiki.)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BodyHorror- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SealedGoodInACan- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/YouAreNotAlone- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ZombieAdvocate (In particular since I see a lot of things that aren't human as worthy to live and to live with)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EvenEvilHasLovedOnes- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EvenEvilHasStandards- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HeelFaceTurn- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CorruptTheCutie (Note: being corrupted don't mean you're a villain, only different than before.)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DefectingForLove (Of course.)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/VillainousRescue- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/InterspeciesAdoption (For the same reasons as zombie advocate, since I love family stuff)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BrokenBird (to go with corrupt the cutie if it's a girl)Cover: "The Bard" by John Martin, 1817.
