When Jessica learned that Kathryn had found a teacher for Kelly, her face relaxed. She asked, "How is she coping with the teacher?"

"She is doing well. Since it's not a traditional school environment, it's easier for her to adjust. Don't worry."

Jessica nodded. "Okay. Please help me take good care of her."

Kelly still required an education, and Jessica's primary concern was her schooling after dropping out. Jessica believed she couldn't postpone it any further, especially considering Kelly's age and the importance of her receiving a proper education.

However, Jessica had second thoughts upon recalling the harm Kelly had endured in school. She would rather prioritize Kelly's safety over her education if she had to choose.

"Sorry for troubling you," Jessica said sadly.

Jessica felt indebted to Kathryn. Although they weren't related by blood, Kathryn had taken care of everything for her during her illness, and now Kathryn was even helping her look after Kelly.

Kathryn said, "Plea

    Jessica's face paled at Kathryn's statement. She found it hard to catch her breath. She was appalled at the thought of the man being similar to Wendy and Krista. Having witnessed Krista's true nature recently, Jessica couldn't shake off the unsettling feeling.The mention of Wendy brought back unbearable memories from her childhood. Back then, she genuinely believed she would die at Wendy's hands. "If Kelly's father is like them, he would not be Kelly's hope. He would be her demise."Kathryn said everything she could, hoping to ignite Jessica's desire to live.Chris had mentioned he was trying to persuade Krista to proceed with Jessica's operation, but Kathryn wasn't confident it would work. Despite the uncertainties, she fervently hoped for Jessica's successful operation.Jessica and Kathryn continued to talk for a while.Before Kathryn left, she informed Jessica, "I won't bring Kelly to the hospital for a while. She left the hospital with the flu last time.""What? Kelly ha

    Kathryn turned and stared at Byron as he faded into the distance. Eventually, she got into her car, feeling as clueless as a newborn baby. She thought of heading to the Albert Group.The situation with Jessica and Kelly had reached a dead end. Kathryn was anxious, but there was nothing she could do.In this moment of uncertainty, she decided to head to the Albert Group and seek out Chris. She wanted to understand his plan to convince Krista to donate her bone marrow to Jessica.As she settled into the car, a knock on her car window caught her attention. Turning, she saw Krista standing outside, her eyes void of warmth, now colder than ever.She opened the door and stepped out, no longer afraid of Krista. Upon seeing her, Krista sported a proud smile. "What's up? Here to see your sickly sister again, huh?"Kathryn stared at the kidnapper, harboring a strong desire to see Krista in jail. If Krista wasn't the only match for Jessica's bone marrow, Kathryn might have ripped her to sh

    When Kathryn Krista's words, she stopped in her tracks and turned her head to look at her. "What do you mean?""Phineas is Chris' brother. You have Chris kidnap his brother for your sister. If this isn't dancing around the boundaries of morality, what is?" Krista's tone was harsh.This sentence seemed to nail Kathryn onto the cross with eternal damnation. Krista was implying that she was the cause of it all. Needless to say, Krista was skilled at gaslighting others.However, it was to no avail. Kathryn, while not always the sharpest tool in the shed, was not easily fooled."Chris and I are dancing around the boundaries of morality?""You are technically Phineas' sister-in-law. If word gets out that Phineas was kidnapped, how would the public perceive you and Chris?"Kathryn was confused about how this had anything to do with what happened. Krista seemed to be offering a carrot and a stick—humiliating Jessica and Kelly first and now attempting to guilt-trip Kathryn.Kathryn wante

    Kathryn had no idea when Byron and Chris started keeping their interactions under wraps. She couldn't pinpoint when Byron began appearing more frequently at the hospital, and despite Chris asking Tara to search for Kelly's father, there had been no updates.Now, Byron had kidnapped Phineas. While the Hunt family might have had issues with Krista, taking Phineas seemed extreme.Kathryn had been preoccupied with the complexities involving her, the Winchesters, and Krista, not delving too deeply into the situation. However, Krista's words triggered an epiphany, providing instant answers to her lingering questions.Byron had kidnapped Phineas to coerce Krista into proceeding with Jessica's operation. That could only mean one thing—Byron was Kelly's father.As Kathryn posed the question to Chris, she scrutinized his face for the slightest reaction. Chris, taken aback by the inquiry, chuckled. "Have you finally realized?""So, it's true!"When Chris didn't deny it, Kathryn felt her c

    Kathryn's world finally seemed to have some room to breathe. However, the revelation of this matter marked the beginning of something new.…At the hospital, Krista and Byron stood on the rooftop. Byron, one hand in the pocket of his suit trousers, took a drag of his cigarette and said coldly, "I won't give you too much time to think about this. If you can't give me a definite answer by tomorrow, you will receive an item from Phineas.""What item?" Krista's face grew colder upon hearing his words.Byron looked at her with emotionless, cold eyes. "What do you think you'll receive? I don't believe you're naïve enough to think I'd give you an item of clothing from him."Byron's reference to an "item" suggested something that would force her to make a quick decision, something that would terrify her upon seeing it. Krista found it increasingly difficult to breathe, and Byron's sarcastic comment only heightened her anxiety. Her face was drained of color. "Are you willing to make enem

    Amidst the apparent joy, Krista was sure that Franco had no attention for anything or anyone else."You're so blessed, Ms. Pine," Krista mockingly remarked, instantly silencing the laughter in the room. Frank stood behind Krista. He looked at Franco with remorse, realizing he had failed to prevent Krista's entry. Perhaps it was because Krista had been the previous lady of the house. Frank had forgotten Franco's instructions not to allow her in if she ever appeared again.When Franco saw Krista, his expression turned cold instantly while the smile on Marigold's face froze. She felt awkward.Observing the drastic change in their demeanor, Krista continued, "When I gave birth to Phineas, you were always busy and never home. Now, you know the joy of having a baby at home. What a rare sight!"When Krista gave birth to Phineas, Franco hired the best nutritionist and nanny to care for her and Phineas. At the time, she had appreciated Franco's efforts, but witnessing him personally car

    Franco's gaze suffocated Krista, prompting her to take a deep breath. "Did you know that Byron captured Phineas?" she asked, hoping for reassurance that Franco was unaware of the situation.His cluelessness would bring her some comfort. Franco had given all his attention to Marigold's son, a behavior that deeply upset her. Regardless of their strained relationship, Krista couldn't fathom Franco's indifference toward Phineas. After all, Phineas was his son too. Stunned, Franco asked, "Why did he do that?"The friction between the Hunts and the Alberts had not been severe, and Markus and Chris had a close relationship, which usually resolved minor misunderstandings.However, that wasn't the case now.Mocking his ignorance, Krista remarked, "So, you don't know about this, huh? I think you can't see anything other than Marigold's baby right now."Franco's face paled further under Krista's scornful words. Facing his grim stare, she proceeded to explain the entire situation.Phinea

    Krista had been self-righteous for years. She believed her actions were faultless. In reality, whenever she couldn't handle her mess, she turned to Franco to clean it up.She had been naïve in overestimating her capabilities. Without the support of the Albert family or Franco, she found herself wondering what tricks she had left."It doesn't matter what kind of trouble I got into. Phineas is still your son. It is a fact that Byron kidnapped him. So, are you going to handle this?" Krista questioned. "Of course, I will handle Phineas. But I will not handle your problems," Franco replied coldly, introducing a distant coldness Krista had never experienced before.Despite their many years of marriage, he left her with a frigid response, unwilling to make her problems his."This is between you and them. You are also the reason why Phineas was kidnapped. I trust that you will get this matter sorted out, yes?"Krista was rendered speechless. Arriving with the expectation of Franco's unw

    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

    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.

They were heading toward the glass doors of the building.Before Kathryn could double-check what she saw, the car had already turned.
