Bright Future With Him Chapter 213
The notion of being in this together seemed utterly far-fetched now. This situation had spiraled into a significant catastrophe, to put it mildly. Tally had been in a state of constant chaos throughout. She hadn't been able to hand over all her belongings to Kathryn. After the call ended, Kathryn moved some of her things from the company apartment to Rexton Manor. When she was done, she called Jessica, who'd just gotten discharged. They agreed to meet up at a café near the company. When Kathryn got there, Jessica was alone. She was a little pale, and she'd gotten a lot thinner in such a short time. Jessica was wearing a suit she hadn't worn since she got married, so she looked more energetic than before despite her sickly state."Jessica," Kathryn said as she sat in front of her.Jessica smiled when she saw Kathryn. "You're here."Kathryn nodded, then looked Jessica up and down before noticing she was wearing some light makeup. It made her look a lot less like a housewife.

"I know. I won't go easy on them this time!" Jessica said. After a moment of silence, she added with a sigh, "It will be hell for us both if she's released, anyway."Both of them knew just how much torture Wendy had put them through for the past few years. They only had some peace now because she was in jail.Maxwell was still kicking up a fuss. But that was nothing compared to what Wendy could do."What about you and Matthew?""We're divorced," Jessica spat coldly. Kathryn knew what the marriage was to her—a set of chains Wendy forced onto her. That was why Jessica sounded so relieved when she revealed they were divorced. It felt like everything Wendy used to control was now hers again."What about Kelly?" Kathryn asked."I'll retrieve her once I secure a job, a house and have everything settled."Jessica was grateful to Karen for this. Wendy was the one who caused their conflict in the first place, but she still cared about her granddaughter when all was said and done."Tha

On the way back to Rexton Manor, Kathryn got a call from the neighborhood's security guard, saying Wendy wanted to meet her."I don't want to see her," Kathryn said."Ms. Michaels, this is your mother. I feel like you should see her, no?" the guard said seriously. Kathryn couldn't be bothered, so she hung up immediately.She didn't know when she started hating it when people referred to Wendy as her mother. The guard's use of the word "should" only further infuriated her. That was why she became rebellious and hung up no matter who said that. Meanwhile, Maxwell was harassing Kathryn, probably because he couldn't convince Jessica to help.He kept calling and calling, but if Kathryn blocked his number, he'd simply get a new one. Worrying that he'd continue to bother her in front of Chris, she picked up in frustration. "What?""Kathryn." Maxwell's tone was pleading, a huge difference from his previous hostile attitude. This instant change in his tone was expected since Kathryn kept

Maxwell wondered how his mom had given birth to two daughters like them.Kathryn simply laughed coldly at Maxwell's desperate yelling. "Correction—that's your father and your mother!"Maxwell was speechless."You're the man here, yet you can't even fork out the money to help your own parents. And here you are, guilting people into giving you money. When did you become so shameless?"It was time he grew up! Kathryn's tone was full of disgust for Maxwell. It was true that Wendy wasn't a very good mother to her or Jessica, but she and Patrick had raised Maxwell as best as they could."You're on your own now!" Kathryn said, emphasizing each word. Maxwell paled when he heard that. Just as Kathryn was about to hang up, he hastily said, "Wait! Can't you at least give me some time? I haven't even graduated from university yet.""I didn't ask for a single cent when I was in university. Where was the time I needed back then?" Kathryn responded. Kathryn was taken aback by the fact tha

Chris' warm breath fanned across Kathryn's cold cheeks. That brought a romantic tension to the already tense atmosphere.Kathryn was already nervous to begin with, so she gulped when she saw Chris' sharp gaze. "M-Mr. Albert!""You were raised in Everburn Highlands?""Yeah, I'm from Everburn. Why?""You don't look like it!" Chris said seriously. He knew how deserted that place was. It was barren as far as the eye could see, so much so that there was barely any grass or trees, even though there was plenty of land.When he'd gone there to visit his mother in the past, everyone there was tanned to some degree. No one was pale and fair like Kathryn.Kathryn was speechless. Chris put it in such a way that even she was confused as to where she came from. She didn't know Chris had been to Everburn Highlands before, so she gulped and said, "I told you I don't look like them."Chris let her go, and she hastily stood up before saying, "T-Time to eat.""Are you hungry?" Chris pointedly

Kathryn looked at Chris pitifully. "Are you worried I'm costing you too much money by eating a lot?"Chris and Cara were speechless. What nonsense was she talking about? Cara looked at Kathryn like she had nothing to live for. She was curious whether food really was all Kathryn could think about.Was Chris' beautiful looks worth less than food? Sensing the tension in the atmosphere, Kathryn hastily ate some vegetables, then grumbled, "I can eat vegetables."Chris shot her a cold glance but didn't say anything else. Still, that look alone made Kathryn too scared to eat any more. Chris himself never had a huge appetite, so he was full after a few bites. When his phone rang, he picked it up and headed upstairs right away.Cara looked at Kathryn in frustration. "Oh my god, Madam. What were you talking about? Does Mr. Chris look like someone who cares about spending too much money?"How much could a monthly allowance be? Even though she'd been buying meat almost every day, she'

Chris looked at Kathryn and said, "Come here!" Kathryn didn't dare disobey those cold words, so she shuffled over to him. Then, Chris suddenly pulled her into his arms. Kathryn almost yelped in surprise. Luckily, she managed to stay silent.She had no idea when Chris started doing this, but he seemed to like doing it more and more. "Mr. Albert!" she called out."You are getting heavier!"Kathryn was speechless. He would never let go of how she ate too much, wasn't he? His words also kept reminding Kathryn that she was pregnant with a child he didn't want. If she didn't take care of it soon, she'd probably die a really, really horrible death.Kathryn gulped and tried to change the subject. "Was that Ms. Davis on the phone?"Chris froze when he heard the question. Why the hell was she asking stuff like this?The moment Kathryn stopped talking, she felt the chill coming off of Chris. She really wished she could slap herself right now. "Sorry, I didn't mean it!""Mean what?""I

Chris' actions confused Kathryn. She had no idea what he meant by that.Chris' gaze hardened. "You must conduct yourself as befits Mrs. Albert when in the company of others. So, how should you respond when Mia Davis calls me?"What did she need to do? Kathryn thought for a while. What did she need to do if she and Chris were a normal married couple and another woman called her husband?The obvious choice would be to … threaten her? Was he really asking her to do that? That was his true love!Kathryn shot Chris a conflicted look, not believing the conclusion she'd gotten at all. But there Chris was, still holding out his phone to her.So, with a puzzled look, she asked, "D-Do I really have to threaten her?""What do you think?" Chris said more seriously than before. This scared Kathryn because Mia was his true love. Even though she disapproved of Mia, Chris was seriously … Was he trying to piss her off for leaving him back then? The moment she thought of that, Kathryn hastily
