Bright Future With Him Chapter 190
Chris went to answer a few calls. The pasta was ready by the time he was done.Chris didn't stop Kathryn when she tried to return to her room again. However, Kathryn had underestimated the extent of her sleepwalking tendencies. She slept in a separate room from Chris last night. Yet, something happened when she woke up the next morning.Needless to say, she found herself in Chris' bed again. As she glanced up, she was met with a piercing and somber gaze from Chris, causing Kathryn's hair to stand on end.She took a deep breath. "Mr. Albert, would you believe me if I said this was a misunderstanding?""What do you think?" Chris shot back. Kathryn was speechless. How had she wound up in this room?Kathryn knew her way around Rexton Manor. Besides, she had shared a room with Chris there before. As such, it was different from other places. However, under these current circumstances ...Kathryn couldn't remember what happened after she fell asleep last night.Kathryn's anxiet

Chris exhibited a fair-minded nature. But if someone really upset him, he'd make sure they understood the consequences of what they did.Amelia's heart raced as she said, "But that's how he treats others!"Vincent retorted, "Are you saying that you're different from others? Don't overestimate yourself."Vincent hadn't seen anyone Chris valued. Chris didn't even care about his own father, Franco Albert. Vincent couldn't understand how his daughter believed she was important to Chris.A thought occurred to him. Did his daughter really think that being in the same class as him automatically set her apart as special?A connection held significance only when both parties shared similar sentiments. Yet, if one person didn't reciprocate, it became devoid of worth.Chris might acknowledge his friendship with someone like Amelia if he was in a good mood. But if he felt otherwise, he dismissed her entirely.Amelia was rendered speechless by her father's remark. But hearing her father'

Amelia hated Kathryn to her guts now.Mia rushed over when she heard Amelia's shriek.Mia was confused when she saw how angry Amelia was. She asked, "What's the matter, Amelia?""Mia, I won't let Kathryn get away with this. Never!" Amelia said fiercely.Amelia was really mad. Her credit cards were getting canceled one by one, and she kept getting messages about it.Mia didn't know what had happened. She went over and sat by the bedside. She asked, "What's going on?"Taking on a big sister role, she held Amelia's hand. Amelia told Mia everything about her father's phone call. The more she spoke, the angrier she became. "How could my father do this? I'm his daughter!" Amelia said furiously. Mia never expected her uncle to do this to his precious daughter."This is all Kathryn's fault!" Mia sighed, her voice tinged with a sense of powerlessness. Amelia directed her anger squarely at Kathryn. Amelia was already furious. Her resentment toward Kathryn deepened upon hearing Mia
Bright Future With Him Chapter 193
There was no changing what had been done. With a sense of reluctance, Amelia nodded in agreement.Seeing Amelia's acceptance, Mia breathed a sigh of relief.Mia was well-acquainted with her uncle's keen perception. It was a given that he'd probe into what occurred the night before. Mia and Amelia had to resolve the issue before he began investigating. Otherwise, it could jeopardize her mother's position in the family. Moreover, their current livelihood hinged on her uncle's financial support.Once freshened up, they went to the presidential suite where Chris and Kathryn stayed. The door to the presidential suite was left slightly ajar. Inside, Chris and Kathryn were enjoying breakfast at a small table. Even so, they opted to knock on the door. At the sight of Amelia and Mia, Kathryn's brows knitted together. It was clear she was thinking about the unpleasant events from last night.Mia tugged Amelia along, who was still unwilling. As Mia gazed at Chris, she called out, "Chris
Bright Future With Him Chapter 194
Chris wasn't about to let them off so easily. He asked, "Do you still plan to apologize?""Chris!" Amelia responded. Amelia believed she had already apologized.Amelia directed an aggrieved look at Chris. She was counting on their relationship as classmates to influence him into not making a big deal out of the situation.Chris said, "If you're not ready to apologize, get out!" His tone became even more menacing. Mia and Amelia became even more scared upon hearing this. They had never expected Chris to get so angry because of Kathryn.Amelia sucked in a deep breath before apologizing to Kathryn. "I'm sorry, Ms. Michaels!" Amelia said through clenched teeth. Even though she was apologizing, Amelia's composed expression had a hint of bitterness and resentment.Upon hearing her apology, Kathryn took the meatball Chris gave her and ate it. "Is that an apology, Ms. Miller? It sounds more like you want to eat me!"Kathryn wasn't someone to be trifled with, and she wasn't quick to
Bright Future With Him Chapter 195
Chris noted the change in Kathryn's demeanor. He jeered, "Are you afraid of me now?"Kathryn remained silent. She was genuinely afraid of him. Amelia's actions had provoked her earlier, and she couldn't help but react strongly. But now, in hindsight, she realized, albeit belatedly, that the one sitting across from her was the real tiger. Mia was the apple of his eye. Kathryn doubted whether he'd tolerate her causing difficulties for Mia.Regret consumed Kathryn. People were right after all—acting on impulse wasn't wise.Chris noticed her lack of response. He sneered, "You were pretty assertive just now, and your words came out fine!"Her fearlessness revealed a sharp mind and strong logical sense that left Chris quite impressed.Karthyn apologized, "S-S-Sorry!"She was at it again!Chris asked, "Why are you apologizing?"Kathryn replied, "I shouldn't have been so rash earlier and made things difficult for Ms. Davis."Her issue was with Amelia. But she feared Chris might mi
Bright Future With Him Chapter 196
Mia felt disappointed as she recalled how Chris had acted just now. She had only left three years ago, so how could he change so much? His current demeanor made it seem like they were never in a relationship before. "Mia, aren't you angry?" Amelia got more frustrated seeing Mia stay calm and comfort her now.Mia would have been angry with Chris' present attitude if she were still the same as she was three years ago.With a sigh, Mia lowered her gaze. "What's the use of being angry? He acts as though I'm a complete stranger! Anger is only justified when you care about someone." And even if she did get angry now, would it change anything?Upon hearing Mia's weary tone, Amelia felt a pang in her heart. Her displeasure toward Chris intensified."Chris did care about you. It's just that he's with Kathryn now!" Amelia's words were fervent. She believed that Chris had been waiting for Mia's return all this time. The mystery was how Kathryn had won Chris over enough to become his w
Bright Future With Him Chapter 197
Mia sent a message to Chris, but she didn't hear back. She wasn't sure if Chris hadn't seen it or if he couldn't use his phone. As half an hour passed without a response, Mia began to feel anxious."Is it really like you said?" Mia sounded a bit unsure as she inquired. When Mia thought about how Chris behaved and what Amelia said about him not being a ladies' man, she thought it was likely true."I'm sure it is. You should just go see him," Amelia responded.Mia didn't say anything and just thought about what Amelia had said.Considering Chris' present behavior toward her, Mia felt uncertain. The agony she had endured since she came back was known to no one. Every instance of Chris' demeanor seemed to stifle her.Mia was about to nod in agreement, but then Amelia's phone rang. Amelia retrieved it and checked the caller. It was her father!Amelia took a deep breath and answered, "Daddy.""What did you do to Mrs. Albert again?" Vincent's angry voice came through the phone.

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.
