Bright Future With Him Chapter 243
Kathryn didn't want to make things complicated. Therefore, she ultimately sought Chris' permission. She was not willing to bear the consequences of Chris learning of her private meeting with Lloyd. Chris' intense gaze met hers when she entered the office. Chris was the first to speak. "Who was it?"Kathryn didn't hide it from him. She said, "Mr. Robbins.""Lloyd Robbins?" Chris' face fell instantly. He was surprised that Kathryn and Lloyd were still contacting each other in private.Observing his reaction, Kathryn knew right away that Chris was displeased. Lloyd seemed to be a taboo subject. Kathryn blamed Llyod for her current circumstances. "Why did he have to employ a woman to seduce him when they were discussing their collaboration?" Kathryn mused.Kathryn was confident that the collaboration's failure was due to Alexandra. However, she understood that Lloyd wouldn't know what a gentleman would be like.Kathryn nodded. "Yes. It's Mr. Lloyd Robbins."Kathryn's tone was cal

A sense of apprehension enveloped Tally whenever Kathryn phoned her now. She believed something must have happened."Tally, there will be a medical check-up this afternoon!""What?""Mr. Albert told me just now. He said that it's compulsory for everyone.""But why must it be today?" Tally was stunned as well. A medical check-up wasn't something Kathryn needed at the moment.Kathryn knew what it meant. She was extremely anxious. Her mind was in a mess."I don't know!" They had no idea why the medical check-up had to be done suddenly. It was supposed to be next month."You can't go," Tally said.Albert Group had always offered a thorough medical check-up for their staff. If Kathryn attended the medical check-up, there was no doubt that she would be unable to hide that she was pregnant."I know! But Mr. Albert had told me about it in particular. I don't think I can run away from it.""You must, no matter what!" Tally said fiercely.Kathryn wanted to cry. Things were different f

Elise turned and headed to Chris' office. Mia raised her gaze and met Kathryn's eyes.Their eyes met, and Mia's subtle smile hinted at satisfaction. Kathryn wasn't sure what the change in Mia's demeanor meant. Before Kathryn could figure it out, Elise emerged from the office. Her face was notably more somber than when she had entered."What happened, Elise?" Mia noticed the change in her expression and swiftly extended a comforting hand toward her.Elise glanced at Mia and sighed. "Seems that he's really mad at you."Mia was silent. Of course, she knew Chris was still mad at her. She didn't know the consequences were so difficult for her to bear when he was angry.She had no idea what to do. She had lost everything. She had even lost her financial support from Vincent and was relegated to living in a modest hotel room. She couldn't afford a suite. Elise sighed. "Maybe you should go back first.""He doesn't want to see me?"Kathryn was walking past them. Elise's expression tu

Chris was alone in his office. He had just lit his cigarette when he saw Mia enter his office. His face fell instantly.He reached for his phone, but Mia grabbed his hand to stop him."I insisted on entering. It has nothing to do with anyone else," Mia said, sounding aggrieved. Yet, her voice was gentle.Chris glanced at her coldly. "Let go of me."His tone was distant. Mia's heart skipped a beat upon hearing it. She took a deep breath and asked, "Do you really hate me this much?"She was choking up as she spoke. Her eyes reddened. She recalled how much she missed him when she was abroad. There wasn't just grievance in her heart. There was also hate.Chris didn't say a word. He withdrew his hand. Disgust flashed across his eyes as he did so.Mia was relieved when she saw that Chris didn't seem to intend to kick her out of his office. Everyone at the office was watching. There might even be Krista's people among them. If she was thrown out, Krista might start nagging again."I
Bright Future With Him Chapter 247
Meanwhile, Elise, in the assistants' department, was relieved when Mia stayed inside Chris' office for more than five minutes. She thought things wouldn't be wrong if Chris didn't kick her out immediately.If nothing happened to Mia, there wouldn't be any consequences for them either.Elise thought there must be hope for Mia to make up with Chris. She looked triumphant when she glanced at Kathryn. Kathryn couldn't be bothered about it. It was almost time for her to get off work. Kathryn had to go to Albert Manor. She had figured out how she should go to the hospital.However, the office atmosphere wasn't as good as Elise had expected. Mia thought Chris was furious as he remained silent and said nothing. She continued adding fuel to the fire."She looked so honest and timid. I couldn't believe she had the courage to marry you with someone else's child." Mia emphasized that Kathryn was pregnant with someone else's child. She aimed to incite Chris with every word. However, Chri
Bright Future With Him Chapter 248
Mia looked at Chris numbly. She didn't understand what he meant."What do you mean?" Mia was puzzled."It wasn't someone else's child? But if it's not, why did she want an abortion?" she thought. Mia was confident that Kathryn wanted an abortion because she had betrayed Chris. She believed that was why Kathryn was so eager to get rid of the child.Mia's heart ached as she looked at Chris' expression."I didn't know you are so fond of accusing others without evidence." Chris sounded like he was disgusted, leaving Mia breathless. "Are you saying that the child …" Mia faltered in continuing her thought. She gazed at Chris in disbelief. She couldn't believe Kathryn was carrying Chris' child.It felt implausible. If Kathryn were indeed carrying Chris' child, she would've appreciated it instead. The child could solidify her position in the Albert family. She believed Kathryn would not ignore such an advantage.Unaware of what Kathryn was concealing from Chris, Mia was certain Kathr

Mia emerged from Chris' office with tear stains all over her face. Elise, who had been gloating, stiffened when she saw her.Mia cast a fierce glare at Kathryn, sneering as she headed toward the elevator. Elise followed her.Kathryn was puzzled. She found her behavior somewhat baffling.She was tidying up her table at the moment. She was also preparing herself to phone Chris later.Just then, the office phone rang. Kathryn knew it was Chris calling. She answered the phone immediately. "Mr. Albert."Emily and Tara, who were working, noticed that Chris had called Kathryn instead of Elise. The realization struck them that Elise's command had been overridden."Come to my office now," Chris said indifferently."Alright, I'll come right now," Kathryn replied.After hanging up the phone, Kathryn placed her things on the table and hurried to Chris' office. The atmosphere within was icy as she pushed the door open, the sensation akin to the bite of winter's chill.Chris was extinguishi
Bright Future With Him Chapter 250
Chris' irritation intensified upon seeing Kathryn's perplexed expression. But as he recalled that she was pregnant, he reasoned her confusion was normal. He then cooled down for a bit."I thought you were going to Albert Manor?""Oh, yes. Yes, I'm ready for that.""Let's go."Kathryn was stunned."Y-you're coming with me?" Kathryn gasped, locking eyes with him.Chris raised his brows. "Any problem?"Though Kathryn was eager to convey the sizable problem at hand, she felt too overwhelmed. Tally had scheduled an abortion appointment. If Chris joined her, it would be impossible for her to go to the hospital. Kathryn wanted to kill herself when she remembered the upcoming medical check-up."N-No problem!" Kathryn had no courage to voice her concerns. Chris stood up. "Let's go."Hurriedly, Kathryn followed suit. Chris had earlier assured her he wouldn't accompany her to Albert Manor. Kathryn was perplexed at his sudden change of plans. Her anxiety deepened. As they headed

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.
