Victor had encountered people from all walks of life but had never seen someone as thick-skinned as Markus.

Victor had never encountered someone who had committed as many shameless deeds as Markus.

"Let me handle this," Tally said, patting the back of Victor's hand.

At this moment, Tally looked like a gentle young woman soothing a dangerous beast under the soft glow of the orange street light.

When Markus saw such a heartwarming scene, he clenched his fists. He could barely hide the anger on his face.

Victor gradually calmed down with Tally's reassurance. Then, he reached out and tidied Tally's disheveled hair. "I'll give you 10 minutes."

"Okay." Tally nodded.

Victor shot a dangerous glare at Markus, who showed no signs of backing down. With a sneer, Victor added, "What a loser!"

Markus and Tally were rendered speechless.

Recognizing Victor's penchant for cutting words, Tally found the description fitting for Markus, though she felt it was degrading to say it so openly.

    Tally found herself speechless, grappling with Markus' unexpected apology. She couldn't believe someone like him would admit to his mistake.In her eyes, Markus was someone who would never admit to his mistake.He was a maniac."You're sorry?" Tally murmured with a smile. She wondered why he apologized.Perhaps he thought he could resolve his actions with a simple apology. However, an apology wouldn't cut the things he had done, not to mention it was just a simple apology.Tally thought Markus finally admitted to his mistake and was apologizing for their conflict. However, she had thought too highly of him. Markus replied, "There was a misunderstanding with the flowers today. I wasn't the one who sent the carnations."Tally couldn't utter a word. She hated hearing the word "carnations" the most. Yet, Markus was bringing it up right now.Markus added before she could get angry, "My father sent them."She froze.Markus was not apologizing because of the conflict but for the ca

    When Tally went inside the house, Victor had already finished showering. The navy blue rope couldn't conceal his elegance, especially with the slightly open neckline.If Tally hadn't been so infuriated with Markus' behavior, she would have been captivated by Victor's charm.When Tally was deep in thought, Victor appeared before her and pinched her cheek. "Do I look good?"Tally was stunned for a moment before instantly returning to her senses. Her face blushed deep red. Despite being furious, she was charmed by his beauty. Seeing her embarrassed look, he laughed. "Don't feel ashamed to look. I'm yours, after all."Tally replied, "Stop talking!""Are you shy?" Victor teased. He liked seeing her at a loss.Nobody would have thought the head of Johnson Group would be so dainty at home.Victor had met a lot of women in his life. However, not many of them genuinely captivated him. Tally was the first one.She was different from the other women. The latter always had a motive to ap

    Jessica frowned at Byron. When Byron looked up and saw her indifferent gaze, he suddenly felt angered.He circled the woman's waist and told Jessica, "Go out and wait first.""Okay." Jessica nodded before leaving.Her back was straight, and her steps were firm. Surprisingly, she was calm and composed in the face of such a situation.The reason why she was so calm was because she didn't care at all.Jessica exited the pub and got in the car.Her phone buzzed in her bag, and she retrieved it to find an unknown number calling.She accepted the call. "Hello.""Jess, it's me." Krista's voice sounded at the other end of the line.Krista seemed to have reached her breaking point. At first, she hoped Kathryn wouldn't reveal her identity to Jessica. However, accepting the fact that Jessica was already aware, Krista decided to stop hiding.A dangerous glint flashed in Jessica's eyes when she heard Krista's voice.Krista became uneasy when she didn't hear an answer from Jessica.

    Krista didn't receive a response from Jessica; the latter had abruptly ended the call. Jessica's reaction hit Krista harder compared to when the latter had apologized to Kathryn.Kathryn would voice out her dissatisfaction. However, after hearing Krista's revelation, Jessica had lost all patience and hung up the phone.Despite being gentler in her demeanor compared to Kathryn, Jessica's temperament appeared to have taken a turn.Krista found herself yearning for Jessica's accusations or anger rather than this indifferent silence.Krista shuddered in pain.Just discharged, Savanna went to get some water. However, she went over to Krista's room after sensing that something wasn't right.After turning on the lights, she saw Krista curled up on the bed with a pale face."Krista."

We should

    "Why did he leave? He left because you forced him to! It's not like we can't afford to raise a child!" Krista roared.Contrary to being a materialistic woman, Krista valued her relationships and possessed a mother's tenderness. She genuinely wanted to protect and care for her child."Why do you think I must be in the high society to live a good life? Do you think I was happy living with the Alberts?"When the Albert family was brought up, Savanna went silent.Savanna planned everything so Krista could marry Franco. The former thought that Krista's future would be bright this way.However, Savanna didn't expect Franco to be a playboy.

    Despite Jessica taking her time driving to the destination, her car swiftly disappeared from Byron's line of sight. Seeing how she had driven at lightning speed, Byron experienced an inexplicable surge of anger.Byron escorted the woman to a room after that. The person who opened the door was a man named Louis Macall. He was Byron's friend who had just returned from overseas.When the woman saw Louis, her expression changed drastically."Thanks." Before the woman could speak, Louis dragged her into the room.Byron said, "Don't ask me to do something like this again."While saying that, he shot an indifferent look at the woman in the room. Meanwhile, the woman also glared at him aggravatedly. Louis circled the woman's waist. "I didn't have a choice. She's too stubborn and refused to meet me."Byron wasn't interested to know about the conflict between Louis and the woman. He turned and left."Remember to give me the Mountain Hegleus project.""Got it!"With that, Byron left.

    Despite being Jessica's mother, Krista was also the one who had ruined her life."Okay, I got it," Kathryn agreed in the end.Krista replied, "Thank you. Thank you so much.""Let's set it in the afternoon.""Okay. That's settled!" Krista said.The duo chatted for a while before ending the call.Kathryn had planned to sleep in today. However, she couldn't fall back asleep after being woken up by the phone call.She got up, washed up, and changed her clothes.Chris was seated at the dining table when she went down the stairs. Surprised, he raised his brows when he saw her coming down. "Why didn't you sleep a bit more?""I woke up when you left.""Did I wake you?" He had tried to be as quiet as possible.Kathryn shook her head. "No. Krista called me."Chris' expression darkened when he heard Krista's name.Chris found it hard to sympathize with Krista despite how pitiful she was right now.

    Kathryn had just arrived at the entrance of Skyline Group when her phone rang. She answered the phone call without checking the caller ID."Hello.""It's me," Susan's voice came through the phone.Kathryn immediately frowned. Her grip on her phone tightened. "What is it?""Grandma wants to meet you right now," Susan said coldly.There was no doubt that there was a natural opposition in their coexistence. Susan would still take Kathryn as her enemy even if Kathryn had done nothing.Kathryn believed she had effectively prevented Susan from getting involved with Chris. Yet, it wasn't actually her fault. She had been part of Krista's plan, after all. Susan couldn't be together with Chris even if she didn't exist.Emma, on the other hand, had been indifferent to Kathryn from the start, ever since she became aware of her existence.

    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. 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.
