Bright Future With Him Chapter 281
Wendy had been counting on Jessica to get rich in Harborlean and take them there in the future. Who knew she would have to depend on the daughter she didn't even want to look at?And since she had such a big house in Harborlean, why shouldn't she get to stay there?Meanwhile, Kathryn walked out of the café and called Jessica. When she heard that Wendy was out of jail, she was shocked. "How did she get out?""Didn't she call you?" Kathryn was still reeling from her shock. "No? Wait, seriously, how did she get out?" Jessica had never dropped her charges. She had wanted to teach Wendy a lesson since she was causing so much trouble. That was why she never gave in.Kathryn's face paled. "Not only is she out, but she knows I have a house in Harborlean.""What?" Jessica's tone turned shaky when she heard that Wendy knew about Kathryn's house. That was not a good thing. "How did she find out?" Jessica asked nervously.Kathryn knew Jessica wasn't the one to tell her just by hearing her
Bright Future With Him Chapter 282
While Kathryn was at the café, she realized why Wendy showed up out of nowhere with the knowledge of her house.After all, the Albert family was doing everything they could to prevent her from marrying Chris. Besides, the conditions Chris had given them threatened Krista's interests. Was that why Krista was trying to get rid of her before she had to hand over the BreezCorizon project? Not only was that the only way to avoid the handover, but it would also mean Chris had failed to expand overseas."Who's coming?" Chris asked. His face had darkened immediately when he heard that not only was someone coming to cause trouble, but Krista was also responsible for it."M-My mother!" Kathryn felt disgusted just trying to call Wendy her mother. She hadn't called her that since she started living with her grandmother. Besides, Kathryn had always thought of herself as a motherless woman. She and Wendy had barely interacted in the past.Things were only different now because she'd clung

Meanwhile, Krista was rushing back to Albert Manor and saw Savanna brewing tea with such calmness. The sight of it irritated Krista."You're back?" Savanna smiled warmly.Krista tossed her handbag aside and plopped down on the sofa. "Why are you still so calm at a time like this?" She hadn't been able to sleep or eat well since yesterday.She had reasoned with Franco for ages, but he still insisted that she hand over BreezCorizon to Chris. That was why she had been busy handling documents for the entire day.She didn't want this to happen, but she didn't dare disobey Franco either.When Savanna saw Krista's anxious look, she smiled. "You're getting anxious over this?""Franco wants to prevent Kathryn from marrying Chris at all costs. He wouldn't budge for any other reason." Krista got pissed just thinking about Kathryn.She'd been planning and scheming for years, but all of her efforts were now undone because of this brat.A lot of things might have been under her control, but

"Mother, did you …" Krista looked at Savanna.Savanna simply stared at her own nails. "How can you lose your temper over such a small matter?"Krista was silent. "What did I teach you? The more powerful your enemy is, the more you need to find out their weakness.""Of course. I guess old people are not to be underestimated." Krista's anxiety disappeared, and she instantly found herself in a good mood.She didn't expect her mother to take care of everything while she was still panicking about what to do next.Savanna smiled. "Just sit back and wait for the good news. We'll see how powerful this hag is.""Chris hates it when women cause a scene. That's probably why he has stayed single all those years," Krista said. Indeed, Chris had always found women troublesome, so how did he fall for Kathryn in the first place? He would get a taste of what he had gotten himself into this time."Call Kathryn," Savanna said."What for?" Krista asked. Even hearing Kathryn's name disgusted he
Bright Future With Him Chapter 285
When Kathryn thought about the image of a young Krista walking with an old Franco, she had no idea how Krista got rid of Chris' mother in the past.How dare she use Chris' parents' money to get rid of her? It was disgusting.Kathryn scoffed. "How do you plan to fix this?"Krista smiled when she heard the question. She looked at Savanna, who also heard Kathryn's reply. A smile graced Savanna's lips. "If you leave Harborlean and disappear from Chris' world, I'll give you another million, and your problem will go away." One million was already more than someone like Kathryn could earn in two lifetimes.It was only natural that she'd never seen that much money before. Krista was confident that Kathryn would be tempted by the offer. As for Chris, she was confident he couldn't top that offer."What do you think?" Krista said when Kathryn didn't answer."It's okay."Krista and Savanna were speechless. Before Krista could figure out she was being rejected, Kathryn continued, "I do

After all, Albert Group was something Krista wanted for her son, Phineas. In fact, she wanted everything in the Albert family for him.When Savanna saw Krista's greedy and unsatisfied face, she snapped, "As if you haven't already damaged its reputation by fighting with Chris."If it really came down to a power struggle, Albert Group would go through a lot of instability. However, it couldn't be helped."Let me handle this," Savanna said after thinking for a while. Whatever Kathryn wanted, she had some idea of what it was just from listening to the phone call.In response, Krista nodded. When it came to things like these, she still trusted her mother. After all, sometimes Savanna was the one who got rid of Franco's mistresses over the years.Now that Kathryn was playing rough with her, she knew exactly how Savanna was going to deal with her. But when she recalled what Kathryn had said to her over the phone, she cursed, "That damn brat. She had no right to talk to me like that!"

Chris' cigarette hand froze. Then, a mysterious smile appeared on his dark face, making him look dangerous. "She admitted that during the call?"Kathryn hummed and nodded in acknowledgment. "Did you record her saying that?"Kathryn was speechless. Record her? She hadn't thought about that because she was caught off guard. So, looking into Chris' cold eyes, she shook her head. "No.""Hmm. Got it." Chris nodded back. His expression didn't change, so it was clear he didn't mind. Kathryn was about to say something when Chris' phone buzzed. It was from Albert Manor.Not only that, it was from the manor's landline. After shooting Kathryn a glance, Chris picked up. "Hello?""Get back here right now!" Franco said, clearly trying to control his temper.Chris frowned. "Why?""I say, couldn't you have found a different woman? Are you trying to infuriate me to death?" Franco lost it after hearing Chris' uncaring tone."I didn't find a woman to please you. What are you so worked up fo

Krista was coercing Kathryn into leaving Chris. However, Krista was admitted to the hospital before she could do anything.Who was this manipulating bitch putting on a show for?Kathryn was left speechless at the sight of Krista's frail appearance. Chris beckoned her over. "Come here.""W-What's the matter?" Kathryn looked at Chris, confused.Her legs moved involuntarily closer to Chris, influenced by the intensity of his gaze. When she reached Chris' side, Chris pulled her into his lap.One hand was on her waist, and the other rested on her bulging belly. The hand on her waist gave a slight squeeze as though acknowledging the changes there. "M-Mr. Albert …"Sensing Chris' movements, Kathryn looked at him with apprehension. She was worried that Chris would do the same thing on her abdomen. Chris detected her unease. He relaxed his hold and quipped, "Are you nervous?""N-No!" she stuttered. Who would believe that she wasn't nervous?Kathryn anxiously looked up. Having m

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
Bright Future With Him Chapter 1338
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
Bright Future With Him Chapter 1337
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.
