Chris entered the lounge swiftly. He couldn't fathom why Kathryn felt so embarrassed. Her face was still red.It was a complete 180 from how she handled Krista and the rest. She was fearless around them but timid around Chris.Chris walked over to her and scooped her into his arms. "Were you looking for me?"Kathryn nodded. "Yeah!""What for?" Chris had a smile on his face.Kathryn's lips were sealed tightly.Chris prompted again. "Yes?"Then, Kathryn remembered what she had wanted to tell Chris. She hesitantly said, "Wendy is at the entrance. She's probably here to cause trouble.""Yeah, I know."Kathryn was surprised. "How did you know?"How could Chris have known when Wendy had only called her minutes ago?It appeared that Chris had already instructed his security to handle the situation after Kathryn informed him.Chris nodded. "Yeah. She'll be escorted away shortly!""By whom?""By the police, silly. Who else would it be? The underground mafia?"Kathryn almost could

Chris raised an eyebrow. "Do you not like it?"Kathryn didn't know how to answer him. She had never thought that far. She felt her chest tighten at Chris' question.It was not whether she liked it. She couldn't taint him any further. At the thought of what happened in Northvale, she knew how treacherous her mistake was."Okay, I'll stop teasing you."Kathryn was as confused and helpless as a child now. Chris decided to let her go.He gently placed her on the bed. He got up, looked at his wrist where she had held him, and said, "I have a meeting now. We will leave work later today.""Okay." Kathryn nodded compliantly.Chris was pleased with how compliant she was and left the lounge.After Chris left, Kathryn patted her chest to comfort herself. She was scared out of her wits earlier.Kathryn's thoughts raced as she tried to make sense of the situation. What was Chris trying to achieve? This was the second time he had acted this way while completely sober. It seemed like he wa

The police car left, its siren echoing in the distance. Maxwell and Patrick remained entwined. They stood at the entrance of the Albert Group for what felt like an eternity, frozen. The onlookers had dispersed, leaving only the security personnel behind. One of them approached and sarcastically remarked, "Still thinking of causing more trouble?"Patrick and Maxwell exchanged glances. They couldn't afford to cause any more trouble.With a stiff expression, Maxwell turned to Patrick. Patrick shook his head and smiled at the security personnel. He said, "No, no. We're not here to cause trouble. It was his mother's idea. It had nothing to do with us."Patrick was a gambling addict. Though he was up to no good most of the time, he sincerely cared for his son.Maxwell, who was resenting his father for not helping, finally saw his father for who he was. He didn't retort any further."Get lost!" The security personnel rudely shooed them away.Though it was Kathryn's family, Chris had

Kathryn retorted, "Do you think I would care about this?""What do you mean?" Maxwell was furious.Didn't she admit that it was her fault just now? Maxwell was confused about whether Kathryn was going to help Wendy out or not."Nothing. Don't phone me anymore.""Do you think we want to? Look at how you speak. I can't even stand listening to it any longer!"Kathryn kept silent."I only phoned you because of Mom!" Maxwell growled.Kathryn sneered. "How I speak? Then why did you phone me back then?"Maxwell's attitude of pretending that he cared for nothing was unbearable to her.Maxwell recalled how he had swallowed his pride. His face went pale."I don't care. You must release her right now!""I'm not the one who arrested her. It's useless for you to find me.""What—""If she didn't do anything wrong, she would be eventually released," Kathryn interrupted him with a sneer before promptly hanging up the phone. Maxwell's anger flared when he heard the disconnected tone of t

Maxwell had never seen Jessica behave so indifferently before. She had always been gentle with him. She was also the easiest person for him to ask for money.That was why he believed he could turn to her for help, no matter what happened.Jessica had been indifferent the last time, but Maxwell thought it was because Wendy had gone too far. He believed she would have calmed down by now. After all, it had been some time. Yet, her tone sounded different from what he had expected.He couldn't believe that Jessica would say something like this now. "Jessica, she's our mother.""She's your mother," Jessica said coldly.Jessica considered Wendy her mother when she was still married to Matthew. She even saved some of the money Matthew gave her for grocery shopping.Yet, she received nothing in return. She understood how Wendy treated her and Kelly. It was clear to her now that Wendy only cared about Maxwell.Everyone had to support Maxwell, no matter how difficult their lives were. She

Maxwell stood in the cold wind, stunned by the disconnected tone from the phone. He hadn't expected that both Kathryn and Jessica would reject him.Patrick noticed that the phone call had ended. He asked anxiously, "How did it go? Will Jessica help? We don't have any money left."Maxwell's fury prevented him from replying. His anger only intensified when he heard Patrick telling him they had no money left. He glared at him fiercely."Money, money, money. As a man, you should have tried to work hard and earn some money. Look at what our family has become now," Maxwell growled. He was venting all his anger on Patrick.Patrick was momentarily stunned by Maxwell's outburst. He responded unhappily, "Why are you shouting at me? Do you think I didn't want to earn money on purpose?""You wanted to? If you did, you wouldn't have been gambling all these years!"Even though Patrick lived with them, Maxwell could rarely find him around. Patrick would leave after breakfast and only return at

Maxwell could hardly breathe when he noticed that his phone had automatically switched off. He tried to switch it on again.It turned on successfully, but he only had 30 seconds before it shut down once more. He made another attempt to turn it on, but there was no response this time. "What's wrong?" Patrick asked, noticing that Maxwell had stopped dialing. "It's out of battery. What about your phone? Does it have enough charge?""Yes."Patrick hastily took out his phone and handed it over to him. Maxwell reached for the phone, but his hand paused in mid-air.Patrick noticed the hesitation and asked, "What's wrong now?""I can't remember the number.""Try switching it on again!" Patrick remembered that Maxwell's phone could stay on for another 30 seconds before it shut down again.Maxwell nodded. He tried switching on his phone once more. Yet, no matter how many times he tried, the phone remained unresponsive. There was no chance for it to switch on again."Damn …" Maxwell

Kathryn no longer dared to go out for food alone, especially since Tally had resigned. It had nearly become impossible for her to handle things on her own. Chris and Kathryn had just gotten in the car when she received a phone call from Jessica."Jessica.""If Maxwell happens to call you again, please don't bother with him.""He's still trying to find me even though I've been rejecting him like this?" Kathryn pouted her lips. She hadn't been treating Maxwell kindly. She had been quite harsh with him.However, she couldn't shake the memory of how shameless they could be. Kathryn believed they would keep trying to find her. "He will," Jessica replied."He called you too?" Kathryn asked."Yeah, he asked for money."Kathryn was left speechless. At this point, she couldn't believe Maxwell's shameless requests for money.It was, after all, Maxwell's nature. It wasn't rare for him to ask them for money. They couldn't escape from someone like Maxwell, even if they had turned agains
