Bright Future With Him Chapter 105
Before Chris headed to the office, he instructed Kathryn to stay home and not go out. Kathryn obediently promised to follow his advice.But the moment he left ... the Albert family butler arrived. He looked at Kathryn and said, "Mr. Franco said that if I couldn't get Mr. Chris to come, you'd need to come with me!"The family's servants previously looked down on her, but they all feared Chris. They were well aware of how he treated her, so the butler showed her great respect. When Kathryn heard Chairman Franco Albert wanted her to come, she frowned.Cara noticed her look and hurriedly stepped forward. "I'm afraid that's not possible. Madam had a fever last night, and Mr. Chris even got me to prepare medicine before he left. He was very clear about her not going out."The butler looked at Kathryn when he heard this, looking conflicted. "Well ..." Clearly, Franco had given him no room to disobey him.Either he came back with Chris, or he came back with Kathryn. And he knew the kind

Kathryn thought she'd better listen to Chris next time. Otherwise, she'd lose the chance to get a bonus and get yelled at too."Is the bonus really not on the table?" Kathryn tried one last time before she hung up.Chris' lips twitched when he heard her cautious tone. Just how money-minded was this girl?She was clearly scared to death, but … Truly, money was the best cure for her fear.When he heard her meek tone, his coldness melted a little. "I'll pick you up in an hour." He didn't say yes, but he also didn't say no. Kathryn was so miserable. She felt like crying. When Chris didn't hear a reply, he huffed, "Do you not want me to pick you up?" There were tons of women in Harborlean who wished they could be in his passenger seat. And here she was, treating him like he was worth less than 60 thousand dollars."Alright. Please hurry," Kathryn said. After all, Franco disliked her. She was worried her heart couldn't take it if Chris took too long.When Kathryn told Chris to hu

Franco's gaze only became sharper. He scoffed, then said murderously, "Since you're so smart, you should know what to do next. Take Krista's card and get the hell away from here!"Kathryn was speechless. They went through all that trouble of calling her just so they could send her away?On the other hand, delight flashed across Krista's eyes when they finally got to the point.This girl had talked back to her previously, but now that she was meeting Franco, it was like watching a mouse meet a cat. This was a great way to avenge her!Albert Group might be under Chris' management, but everyone still feared Franco. So if he ordered it, Kathryn would surely listen to him and go away.Kathryn watched the threatening Franco, then said in a conflicted tone, "I'm sorry, but I can't."Krista didn't know what to say, and neither did Savanna. Together with the young girl, they stared at Kathryn in shock. Did she just say no to Chairman Albert? No one in Harborlean dared refuse him to his

When Mia picked up her phone, she glanced at Kathryn again triumphantly."I'm back, Chris! This time, I'm here to stay!" Mia thought, then walked to the hallway to call Chris.Kathryn had never had a boyfriend before, but she had some idea of what was going on just from seeing Mia's hatred and the Albert family's attitude.Soon enough, she could hear Mia's sickly, sweet voice. Whatever Chris said to her, she replied gently, "Alright. I'll be waiting."After that, she came back in. Krista asked, "So? Is he coming?"Mia nodded. "Mm-hmm. He said he's coming over right now."Kathryn was speechless. Right now? What exactly was her relationship with Chris?Could it be? Was she his true love? Did that mean she was about to get that 100 million dollars?Kathryn got a little excited just thinking about it. When Mia turned to give her another arrogant look, her happy expression was very confusing.Still, Mia only glanced at her before turning to Franco. "Uncle Franco, Chris is coming. P
Bright Future With Him Chapter 109
At that moment, Krista felt like she could cough up blood. Kathryn's reaction left Krista dumbstruck. Chris was her husband, and she couldn't believe how Kathryn responded upon learning that Mia was his first time.Krista had dealt with plenty of difficult people, but Kathryn was like the bane of her existence. She was so stubborn."What do you mean he doesn't like her anymore? Why else would he come immediately after Mia called him?" Krista asked.Kathryn nodded. "That's true. Let's see what he says after he gets here. I'll listen to him."Krista was speechless. What Chris would say? Was she going to let Chris make the decision? Did she not care who he actually liked?Krista had been planning to get rid of Kathryn without a fuss, but someone as stubborn as her was very difficult to get rid of.She was about to say something when she heard a loud beeping noise inside the ward, followed by Savanna exclaiming, "Franco? Franco! Get the doctor, now!"Krista's heart skipped a beat,

As Mia spoke, she leaned her body against Chris. Kathryn found it sickening. She swallowed everything she wanted to say. Then, she stomped to the elevator.She was so mad that her pace was out of control. But the moment she took a step, she broke one of the blisters on her foot. She hissed in pain.She was in so much pain and misery that she cried. Meanwhile, Chris' face fell when he saw her like this. He wondered if Kathryn was throwing a tantrum. But just a moment later, Kathryn endured the pain and started walking to the elevator again. This time, she was clearly limping. The wound obviously hurt her a lot.Mia saw Chris was still looking at Kathryn. So she gently tugged on his sleeve and said, "Let's go see Uncle Franco, Chris.""Yes, Chris. Your father almost scared us to death. Let's go see him."Just as Savanna finished talking, Chris shook off Mia's hand. Before she could react, Chris walked toward that limping yet stubborn figure."Chris ..." Mia called out on inst
Bright Future With Him Chapter 111
Thinking of Chris's first love, Mia, made Kathryn feel incredibly angry. Despite Mia's seemingly gentle appearance, the intense hatred in her eyes toward Kathryn was suffocating. The more Kathryn dwelled on it, the angrier she became.Chris chuckled. "And you say you're not complaining?""I'm telling you, they were bullying me," Kathryn huffed. She was telling the truth. Why did he look like he didn't believe her?"Yeah, yeah, everything you say is true. Happy?" Chris said.What was that supposed to mean? Why did he sound like he was just going along with whatever she said? Did the truth not matter to him?To Kathryn, Chris certainly sounded like he was doing that.Chris carried Kathryn to the car. She thought he would go back to the hospital, but he got in with her."Aren't you … going to go back?" Kathryn asked."Do you want me to?" Chris asked coldly, with a glare that scared Kathryn into looking away.She didn't get why Chris was always so cold. Even if Franco was not a
Bright Future With Him Chapter 112
Either way, Kathryn was taking the money.Her money-minded glee must have been contagious because Chris' anger disappeared when he looked at her.Meanwhile, at the hospital, Mia and Savanna stayed where they were for a long time. The elevator doors opened countless times, but Chris never reappeared.Savanna noticed that Mia's face was falling, so she hastily comforted her. "See? Krista told you. That woman has unbelievable tricks, yet you wasted so much time overseas."Mia was so angry. She was shaking, and her face was pale. She was not gentle anymore like she was with Chris. Instead, she was cold and prideful.When Savanna noticed how mad Mia was, she continued, "Their wedding is just around the corner!""Wedding?" That word only hurt Mia even more.Still, she laughed coldly and said, "You used to look down on me because I was a lowly dancer. But now, you have to call a country girl Mrs. Albert. This probably hurts you more than it hurts me, right?""Why, you …" Savanna's fac

After leaving the Hunt residence, Tally made her way directly to Victor's company.Worried she might lose her way, Drew had been waiting downstairs in anticipation of her arrival.When Tally saw Victor, her face lit up with joy."You should've seen Mr. Hunt Senior's expression earlier. He looked like he wanted to eat me alive." Tally couldn't help but laugh.Victor reached for her hand as they sat down on the couch together. "Were you scared?" he asked.As Tally sat down, she casually looked back and noticed a framed photograph on Victor's desk.Out of curiosity, she picked it up and examined it. But with just one glance, she froze in surprise."When... when was this taken?" she asked. Her shock was evident as she turned to Victor.The picture was taken back when they were at Beverly Peak, during his hospital stay after being bitten by a wolf.She remembered looking after him until she herself fell asleep.In the picture, her eyes were closed, her expression peaceful.Victor

What made it even more absurd was that Elijah bought into it, too.Tally couldn't believe Elijah couldn't see through Markus' façade. He actually bought into Markus' excuse that his behavior was all because of her.And now he was acting like he'd rather die than leave her."Fucking hell," Tally muttered inwardly. She wondered who came up with this messed-up plan for Markus.Clearly, Tally couldn't quite grasp how Markus' mental state could deteriorate like this. However, given his history of going insane, this outrageous plan didn't seem entirely implausible.He was perfectly fine when he was with Albert Group, so how did he end up like this back at Skyline Group?Tally just couldn't figure it out.Elijah shot her a sharp look, gritting his teeth as he said, "You, leave!"Zane hesitated, saying, "Sir, but…""Just let her leave!" Elijah insisted.Elijah's words were punctuated by short, hurried breaths.Tally nodded, saying, "Mr. Hunt Senior, you're indeed the more rational o

Elijah and Zane glanced at each other. Then, their stares turned sharper as they both fixed their eyes on Tally.Tally swallowed nervously. "Why are you looking at me like that? Did I do something wrong?""You're not even married to Victor, so why are you calling yourself a married woman?" Elijah snapped, his anger evident.Tally remained silent.Observing Elijah's furious expression, she nonchalantly rummaged through her bag, retrieving the marriage certificate and wedding invitation.Then, she handed them over to Zane.Zane took the documents and swiftly flipped them open. His eyes widened in disbelief as he read through them.He promptly handed both documents over to Elijah.As Elijah took them and examined them, his expression darkened significantly upon seeing Tally and Victor's marriage certificate.He was shocked when he saw that their wedding date was today, along with the printed timestamp.In that instant, Elijah's breathing grew heavier.He glared at Tally with an

Tally was completely baffled by what was happening."I've been straightforward about my feelings for him," Tally complained under her breath.From her perspective, if something were to happen to Markus now, she shouldn't be blamed solely for her decision to get married. Victor nodded, saying, "Yeah, I know."Victor had always been aware of this. By now, Markus had become such a puzzle that Victor couldn't quite figure him out.Considering how clear Tally had always been about her feelings toward Markus, it was puzzling how he got himself involved in this mess.This time, Victor didn't accompany Tally to the Hunt Residence. He believed she could handle the Hunt family on her own.The atmosphere at the Hunt residence was incredibly tense at the moment.The moment Tally stepped inside, she could practically feel the frost coming off Elijah. His gaze seemed to pierce right through her.Zane's tone was far from pleasant as he said, "Um, take a look at this."With that, he passed

Tally was pretty happy a moment ago. But now, she was all worked up talking about the Hunts.Earlier on the road, Tally filled Victor in on the phone call she received from the Hunt residence.Victor's lips twitched as he heard the news. "So Markus left a suicide note and vanished?""Exactly. Can you believe the trouble he's stirring up now?" Tally shook her head incredulously.Tally was utterly exasperated with Markus by now. It had been a while since this whole thing started.She had to admit, these days had been incredibly "fulfilling" for her. It was so fulfilling that it almost left her reeling.And it wasn't just Tally struggling to keep up. Even Victor had been taken aback by how things were unfolding.He shot Tally a look of disbelief. "So you're going to the Hunt residence now?""Yeah, I'm going. I want those Hunts to know that I'm officially yours. Let's see if they have more shameless tricks up their sleeves."When it came to describing the Hunts, Tally summed it up
Bright Future With Him Chapter 1338
Tally was beginning to see where Markus got his persistent nature from. It ran in the family. It was as the saying went—like father, like son.No sooner had she ended the call, the phone rang again.Tally took a deep breath, reminding herself that today was supposed to be a happy day, not one filled with annoyance.But dealing with these people…After giving it some thought, she hesitantly answered, "Zane!""Ms. Johnson, you might want to come over to the Hunt residence."Tally asked, "What's going on now?"She was almost out of patience with these people.Zane explained, "Mr. Markus left behind a suicide note."Tally's expression froze in disbelief.A suicide note? Tally couldn't comprehend what was happening. She wondered if Markus was pulling another one of his stunts.It had only been less than an hour since Elijah arranged his marriage, and now he went ahead and left a suicide note."Where is he?" Tally raised an eyebrow.With everything happening so quickly, it all f

Looking at her identification papers, Tally let out a sigh of relief.Fortunately, Tally had some knowledge of her father's habits. Otherwise, guessing the password for the safe, which belonged to her comatose father, would have been a daunting task.When Irina called, Tally answered, "Hey, Irina.""Guess what? Markus is engaged!""What?" Tally was shocked.Irina shared her surprise."This time, it seems Mr. Hunt Senior might genuinely have it out for you. We haven't even made a move, and suddenly they're announcing Markus and Sarah's engagement.""Sarah?" Tally was even more surprised.It was only today that they found out who had been secretly admiring Markus. Before they could even step in, Elijah had taken the initiative.It seemed like all these years, Elijah appeared unconcerned, but he actually knew everything.But if he was dead set on hating her, then so be it. Tally couldn't care less.On the other hand, if Elijah truly desired for her and Markus to be together all

Elijah said, "Very well, then."Thinking about his troublesome son, Elijah wondered how he hadn't noticed Markus' extremity in his romantic pursuits before.Elijah was so angry that he couldn't catch his breath.Giving Markus a fierce look, he tried to hold back. Despite that, he couldn't resist putting in one final word, "No matter how much you want to be with Tally, I won't allow it."This time, there was no room for negotiation.At Elijah's words, Markus' eyes turned cold. "I'm afraid you have no say in this.""You..." Elijah's breath hitched as he heard Markus' retort. In a fit of rage, he grabbed a teacup and hurled it toward him.At that moment, Elijah felt an overwhelming urge to lash out at Markus.Elijah insisted, "Regardless of your decision, you and Sarah are officially engaged starting today."His tone was unusually firm.At this point, Elijah wasn't asking for Markus' opinion. He was simply informing him.Regarding Tally becoming Elijah's daughter-in-law, Elijah

Kathryn was confused when Jessica suddenly shoved her into the car and promptly closed the door. With her hand still gripping the door handle, Kathryn looked up at Jessica and suggested, "Uh, how about dinner tonight?"Upon hearing Kathryn's dinner suggestion, Jessica paused before nodding and responding, "Let's talk about it later. I'll give you a call."Jessica seemed really busy, and Kathryn could tell from the way she talked that she was in a rush.Kathryn couldn't help but feel for Jessica as she watched her close the car door and hurried off toward the nearby office building, waving goodbye as she went.Kathryn found herself wondering who Jessica was in such a rush to meet.Kathryn couldn't resist stealing a glance back as the car pulled away. In that brief moment, Kathryn's heart skipped a beat as she saw Jessica walking alongside Lloyd. They were heading toward the glass doors of the building.Before Kathryn could double-check what she saw, the car had already turned.
