As Victor had highlighted, the situation wouldn't reach a resolution unless Tally complied with marrying Markus. Nevertheless, the idea of marrying him remained firmly off the table.

Recalling Markus' troubling actions, particularly those involving Randall and the incident where he compelled her to apologize to Yvonne, her perception of his character lay shattered.

Committing herself to someone with such a problematic track record was simply unthinkable for Tally.

"But hey, let me assure you about one thing," Victor said as Tally nodded.

Intrigued, Tally asked, "What's that?"

"It's regarding the incident from earlier when you confronted Mr. Hunt Senior," Victor clarified.

Tally went silent, trying to process this unexpected piece of information. She began to reconsider her actions from earlier.

As she pondered that particular instance, she came to the realization that she might have depicted herself in a somewhat abrasive light.

Feeling conflicted, Tally turned to Victor and as

    Tally went silent. The realization sank in—she truly had to face this alone!Anticipating Elijah's inevitable wrath upon discovering her interference with his family's sacred resting place, Tally prepared herself for the storm that would follow. This audacious move promised to provide Elijah with a crystal-clear insight into her character. It would appear as the most assertive response she could muster."Can't we find another way?" Tally asked. "No other method carries the same level of intimidation! Besides, if you go ahead with this, Mr. Hunt Senior is bound to harbor an even stronger dislike for you," Victor responded.The term "intimidation" triggered memories of Elijah's shameless threat from earlier. Yes, it was indeed shameless.How could a father intervene in his son's romantic pursuit in such a manner? Not only did he intervene, but he also resorted to such extreme measures. Since they were willing to take such actions, they should be prepared to face the consequences

    Markus raised an eyebrow inquisitively. "How bad is it?"Byron's expression grew somber, and he replied, "The house's main gate was set ablaze, but the fire has now been extinguished."As their eyes locked, it was apparent that Byron was silently questioning Markus' choice to be entangled with a woman of such unyielding ruthlessness.A flicker of unease passed through Markus' eyes as he asked, "How messed up is it?""You'll know once you go back and see for yourself," Byron replied, his tone showing some frustration.Undoubtedly, Tally was a paragon of mercilessness, an exceedingly ruthless woman.As the realization dawned on Markus, his immediate reaction echoed in his thoughts. "Tally's cunning surpasses all expectations!"He knew Tally would be greatly provoked once she learned that Elijah had taken Randall away. Tally wouldn't easily succumb to Elijah's wishes. Even if she did relent, the process of softening her resistance would undoubtedly cause all sorts of chaos and ha

    Zane just felt like explaining to Markus and Byron that Victor was the one who set fire to the main gate. But before he could say anything, Elijah gave him this disapproving look.Having served alongside Elijah for many years, the two shared an unspoken understanding. And just like that, Zane decided to stay quiet."You can't be with her, that she-devil," Elijah reiterated. Elijah appeared visibly drained. Clearly, the sight of the main gate ablaze had greatly infuriated him. He had barely calmed down when the landline started ringing. Zane hurriedly answered the phone. "Hello, this is the Hunt residence.""What? Who did this?" Zane was visibly shocked, his face turning pale. As the phone call continued, Zane's narrowed gaze shifted toward Elijah. A wave of unease swept through the room, indicating the growing concern shared by all present.Byron's gaze bore into Markus, who couldn't shake the feeling that Tally might have done something outrageous again. "Could she have do

    The sight of the wreckage from the fire truly got under Markus' skin when he walked past the main gate. He hopped into the car, revved the engine, and sped away with a thunderous roar.Inside the Hunts residence, Elijah repeatedly mumbled, "Can't have my son with Tally, can't have him involved with this troublesome woman."Byron didn't seem too pleased either. He obviously hadn't anticipated Tally making such a move. Logically, with her father still under Elijah's control, she should be more compliant.Yet, she didn't even back down. Instead, she displayed a thoroughly angered demeanor—setting fire to the main gate and desecrating his grandpa's grave!Her way of doing things and her attitude were undeniably aggressive, to say the least."And you." Noticing Byron's continued silence, Elijah cast him a stifling glance. Byron asked, "What did I do?""Saw what happened to your brother? That's the consequence of falling for the wrong woman. Luckily, he didn't marry her."Byron fell

    "Doesn't this risk causing serious trouble?" Tally raised her head, giving Victor a pitiful look.That was the Hunt family's burial ground, after all. Thinking about it now, Tally couldn't shake off the feeling that Victor might have tricked her into doing something really wrong.Victor observed her timid demeanor and chuckled, "Your dad's in their hands, and you're still thinking about being scared?""Of course, I'm scared."She had gone as far as disturbing someone's grave. If Elijah were to find out, any chance of him liking her would vanish, and there was no way he would let her become part of the Hunts family.And frankly, she wasn't interested in that anyway.They had achieved their goal. Was it possible for her to evade accountability for her actions after committing such an act?Elijah was a ruthless man, too.Could this be taking things too far, provoking them to the point where they would want to resort to violence?Victor ruffled her hair and said, "Relax, even

    Markus made call after call, his frustration mounting with each unanswered ring until Tally finally answered the phone. Markus' tone exuded pure hostility, "Where are you?"His words were strained, barely escaping through gritted teeth. Tally could even discern the icy edge in his tone over the phone. Tally asked, "What's up?"Markus snapped, "What's up? Seriously, Tally Johnson? How did I never realize what a mess you are?""And now you do?" Tally's tone grew sharper.She seemed indifferent and was showing no sign of admitting any fault.Markus was too stunned for words. Already feeling aggravated, Markus was now furious at Tally's remark. His mind was practically ablaze with anger."Get my father back to the hospital, or things will get even worse." Following Victor's instructions, Tally's response remained indifferent.However, there was a noticeable edge of danger in her tone.Markus sneered, "After doing something so despicable, do you really expect your father to

    Zane wondered if Tally would truly follow through on her words.The question flashed through Zane's mind as he recalled her behavior this morning. Honestly, with a woman as fiery as her, she might just follow through on her words.In a hurry, Zane went to find Elijah. Elijah was lying in bed when Zane walked in. "What's happening now?" Elijah asked.Seeing Zane's serious expression, Elijah felt a pang of worry. It felt like trouble was brewing again.Elijah hadn't had a chance to catch his breath yet after the day's chaos. Zane said, "We'll have to get Mr. Johnson back to the hospital.""What happened?" Elijah asked, his expression darkened again as he heard Zane's words."I just spoke with Ms. Johnson on the phone. She claims to know Harmony Hill very well," Zane explained.Elijah was left speechless, stunned by the revelation.At the mere mention of Harmony Hill, Elijah could feel a lump form in his throat. Tally's message couldn't have been clearer.She was threatening

    Just moments ago, Tally was fretting over whether her actions today had crossed a line and would anger the Hunts.If anything were to happen to her father, she would truly regret it. But to her surprise, it actually worked.Victor lifted his glass, took a sip, and spoke with a soft chuckle, "I'm not exactly a mind reader. But I do know exactly what an elder expects in a daughter-in-law."Tally huffed, "So, I'm not good enough to be the Hunts' daughter-in-law?"Even though she didn't care and would never marry Markus, Victor's words felt a bit odd when he put it like that.Victor watched her sulking expression and teased, "Well, when you were berating Mr. Hunt Senior earlier, you definitely didn't meet his standards."Tally remained silent.It appeared that a woman who had the audacity to confront an elder with such vehemence would be too much for any elder to handle.Reflecting on the situation now, she hadn't anticipated getting so enraged."I was completely irrational at tha

    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
