Bright Future With Him Chapter 273
Chris' calm attitude drove her madder. Still, she took another deep breath and asked, "So, nothing's wrong with my body, right?""Mm-hmm. Nothing's wrong." Chris nodded. Even though he said nothing was wrong, his attitude was causing Kathryn to feel like she was about to burst. "Did you want something to be wrong?""No!" She just wanted to see the original copy. She was nervous because she didn't see it with her own eyes.But when she saw that Chris wasn't reacting, she finally believed that Tally took care of everything."Aren't you tired?" Chris looked at her with amusement in his eyes. He finally understood what she was thinking and why she was being so careful. Truly, the past few months have been hard on her. Still, she looked cute like this."I am. I'm going to sleep in my own room. Is that okay?""Which room in Rexton Manor is yours, exactly?"Kathryn couldn't think of a good answer. What he said was true. Nothing in Rexton Manor actually belonged to her. Fortunat

On the way, she called Tally. But Tally seemed to be busy, so she didn't pick up.Kathryn had to locate the hospital using the address Tally had provided. She then met with the doctor. The doctor was a middle-aged woman. She smiled when she saw Kathryn."Tally told me everything. Just relax," she said.Kathryn lay down on the bed. She had done a similar checkup yesterday, but the results probably weren't accurate because Tally had messed with it. However, she didn't tell the doctor that. So, she had to do the test again. This was the first time she had done a serious checkup since she got pregnant. When the doctor turned the screen toward Kathryn, she could instantly see what was going on in her stomach. "The baby's growing well.""Huh? Where is it?" Kathryn looked at the screen in confusion. She couldn't see a baby anywhere on it.The doctor zoomed in on a spot, then circled it for her. "See? It's already the size of a strawberry."Kathryn noticed that it was true. That bund

Kathryn got off the bed with a pale face. "I-I'll think about it!" she said, still thinking about the baby's ability to feel pain as she shuddered.She'd been waiting to abort this baby the whole time, but now she was scared."The operating room will be available in half an hour. If you're not doing it today, you'll have to wait again. It took me so much effort to get you this spot after Tally told me about your situation!"The doctor continued, "And you have three days until you're not allowed to abort it anymore, which means this is your last chance! We're fully booked."On one hand, the baby would feel pain. On the other hand, she was running out of time. Kathryn's mind was a mess with all the pressure, so her breathing got heavier. She'd have to do it in half an hour, or else … she'd have to give birth. At the thought of that, she started shaking even more. Still, she turned, gritted her teeth, and asked, "Can I have ten minutes?""Alright, sure." The doctor nodded. She

"Will you really feel pain?" Kathryn put a hand on her belly in confusion. Looking at the ultrasound image, she noticed the doctor had circled the tiny baby.How could such a tiny thing have a heartbeat? "Ugh, forget about feeling pain. You'll have to stay here in my belly for now." Kathryn closed her eyes. At this moment, she had made the best choice she could. She was keeping this child!That meant she would need to find a way to leave Harborlean. After that, Tally called. She hadn't picked up Kathryn's calls before she went to the hospital, so Kathryn picked up instantly. "Tally?""Is it gone?" Tally asked. She'd gone over for an interview at Skyline Group, so she didn't have the time to talk to Kathryn. Since Markus had talked to the interviewers, she was hired."Tally, we need to talk." Kathryn choked up.When Tally heard her sniffling, she asked, "W-What now?" Tally was already planning to stop minding Kathryn's business, but she felt pity just hearing her tone. "Let's

Kathryn was even drinking warm milk. She used to love drinking iced tea, so why was she even watching her diet now? Was she being serious? Tally was at her wits' end. "Seriously, what were you thinking?" Tally got anxious when Kathryn wouldn't reply. What was going on? Why did she ever befriend Kathryn? Kathryn was going to be the death of her!Kathryn pouted miserably. "The baby would feel pain!""Wait, it's only been a few months! Why would it feel pain?" Tally was about to blow up. What was this stupid girl thinking? "I didn't believe it, either. But the doctor said all life feels pain." That meant killing a life so painfully without caring about its rights was cruel.Kathryn still remembered the way Wendy abused her. She did not want to be that kind of person. She would have caused the baby too much pain."That's why she said the baby would feel it," Kathryn said with a sad look."What did she tell you that for?" Tally asked. She still had no idea what Kath
Bright Future With Him Chapter 278
The moment she left that hospital, Kathryn had made up her mind about leaving Harborlean. She always had strong principles, after all.Tally was now tearing up because of Kathryn. "Is it worth it?" Chris was a dangerous person. Leaving seemed like the only option if they were going to keep things a secret."I'm all the baby has!" When Kathryn heard that the baby would feel pain, her heart ached. If she was the baby's mother, how could she not protect it? That was why she had decided that no matter what, she needed to give birth to this kid and protect it."Oh, Kathryn!" Tally's heart ached too, especially because the abortion was her idea. Some mothers would never hurt their own children, she supposed.After Tally left, Kathryn stayed in the café for a long, long time. She thought about what to tell Chris if she was leaving. Obviously, she had to leave before she started to show. That meant she only had a month or so, right?Suddenly, Kathryn's phone buzzed, snapping her

Maxwell said something to her as a reminder. After that, Kathryn heard Wendy say arrogantly, "Now that I've been in jail, I can't go back home!""So?" Kathryn couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at that. She had a bad feeling that she knew what Wendy would say next.Sure enough, Wendy replied, "Don't you have a house in Harborlean? I'm staying there for now. Send me there!"Kathryn didn't say anything. Her mind blew up on the inside as her body shook with anger. How did Wendy find out about her house? Where did she learn this?Also, judging by Wendy's attitude … "You know I can't do that!" Kathryn rejected her without hesitation. She wasn't going to let Wendy do whatever she wanted. She refused to do as Jessica did. Staying there for now? Kathryn knew that once Wendy set foot in her house, she would never get it back. She knew Wendy too well, which was why she had to keep her out.Wendy almost blew up when Kathryn said no. "What else do you want me to do? Go back and let ever
Bright Future With Him Chapter 280
"Then, you can either go back home or sleep on the streets!" Kathryn said coldly."Wait, what the hell does that mean? Do you have any idea how hard our lives are right now?" Wendy grumbled. "Maxwell has never been your only child! It's your fault you've spoiled him so much that he's still a freeloader at this age. Why are you begging for someone else's help?""What do you mean 'a freeloader'? Do you have any idea how much college costs?""Jessica and I earned our allowances by working part-time when we were in college! We know exactly how much it costs!" Kathryn's sharp replies left Wendy unable to talk back.Not only that, Wendy's chest seized up when she heard the response. "Wait, that's—" She got anxious when she realized Kathryn wasn't going to help.She'd always known that the two weren't close, but she didn't know Kathryn would be this cruel. Could it be? Had she found out that she wasn't really her mother?Wendy thought the idea was implausible. If Kathryn knew, wit

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.
