When Mia saw Elise, the tears she'd cried in the office fell once again, shocking Elise into silence. When she saw Mia cry so suddenly, her heart almost leaped into her throat.No way. Didn't Chris have a fight with Kathryn? He needed Mia's comfort the most in a time like this. Why did he kick her out?"I'm leaving, Elise," Mia said after taking a deep breath. Before Elise could answer, she walked toward the elevator.Tara didn't follow Mia. Instead, she shot Elise a cold look. "Mr. Albert has a message for you.""What is it?" Elise asked arrogantly. She already hated Tara to the bone."He wants you to finalize your pay with the HR department.""W-What? What did you say?" Elise's arrogance was gone in the blink of an eye. She looked at Tara in disbelief.Her father, Ben Schiffer, was a very important man in Harborlean. Her job at Albert Group was to learn how to run a company. That was what he told her when she got handed over to Markus.So, she tried her best to get close to C

Elise had truly underestimated that country bumpkin. Elise didn't know she was this capable. When she didn't say anything, Markus stood coldly and made his way outside. He'd just passed Elise when she grabbed him and said, "Mia was here!""And you let her in again?"Elise fell silent. Fury flashed in Markus' eyes. "Have you forgotten what I told you?""I—""You still haven't learned to stay in your lane, have you?"Elise was speechless. How was she supposed to stay in her lane? Chris was the only reason she came to Albert Group. She thought that once Markus left, she'd get to be executive assistant.But judging by how quickly Tara had adapted to the incident just now, she could kiss that job goodbye. So, she might as well fight to become Mrs. Albert. That was why she was so desperate to get rid of Kathryn."If that's the case, you can go." Markus' face fell, clearly a sign that he didn't want to waste time with her anymore.Elise paled. "What did you say?"Did he just ask

In the meantime, Kathryn was with Tally. Since Kathryn still needed to pick Chris up before going back to Rexton Manor, she ate dinner with Tally at their old favorite restaurant nearby.Tally gave Kathryn a piece of chicken. "The chicken's grilled perfectly today. Try it.""You try some too!" Kathryn said. She loved meat, but it never tasted as dry as her grandmother used to make it.At first, she thought tender chicken was delicious. But after some time, she thought old hen meat tasted better.As Tally ate, she said, "I think your suspicions are valid. What kind of mother treats their own daughter like that?"She recalled what Kathryn had told her. Never mind Kathryn; Tally herself had secretly suspected Wendy wasn't her real mother. For a supposed mother, Wendy barely did anything. How many hardships had Kathryn gone through with her grandmother? How many setbacks had she experienced? Would she have stood by and watched if she were her real daughter?"If it's like you said,

Kathryn was a bit worried about Tally's confidence, so she said, "She does work on the farm year-round." Wendy was obviously a strong woman.Tally did have a fiery temper, but she'd never be as strong as Wendy was.Tally asked, "Have you forgotten I'm a 7th-degree taekwondo black belt holder?"Oh, right! Never mind Wendy, Tally probably could have beaten ten Wendys at once. How could she have forgotten that? Kathryn felt reassured. "Alright. Tomorrow, it is.""Have you told Chris about your suspicions?""No." Kathryn shook her head. "Then it's better if you don't say anything," Tally said. After all, this wasn't a good thing. Besides, things were awkward between them right now. They weren't a couple because their marriage was a sham. But their marriage wasn't a total sham either because they had a baby on the way.Kathryn was having enough trouble trying to keep the baby. She didn't even know what their relationship was, so she didn't want to tell him anything.Kathryn under

Chris grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms when he saw her panicked. "You silly girl!" he said in resignation.He had to admit Kathryn was a special kind of stupid when it came to love. Didn't he just ask her to feed him? Why was she so scared? How much did she care about her house and money? Was she that scared he'd take them all away?She was such a materialistic girl. It was like she'd never seen money in her life before. Kathryn's expression became even more pitiful when Chris called her silly. Before she could say anything, Chris continued, "What did you call me before you went out?"Kathryn thought for a moment. Before she went out? She recalled seeing Tara and Mia there. That was … basically a public death by embarrassment. Just recalling it made her blush."Answer me," Chris said more forcefully when Kathryn didn't reply."Um, d-darling! If you don't like it, I won't call you that again," Kathryn stammered, looking even more pitiful as a result. First, he w

Kathryn didn't know how she got back to Rexton Manor with Chris. Before they left the company, Chris ate the food she'd brought him.So, by the time they returned to Rexton Manor, Cara had already left. In the past, Kathryn wouldn't have thought much of it. Now, she would get jumpy whenever she was alone with Chris."What are you standing around for? Aren't you going to take a shower?""I-I want to sleep in my room tonight!""What's the point if you're a sleepwalker?"Kathryn fell silent. She had forgotten about that. She used to fall asleep in her room, only to wake up with her whole body wrapped around Chris. Was it her fault Chris had become like this?The more Kathryn thought about it, the more she blushed. She looked at Chris nervously, but she couldn't bring herself to speak.When she remained motionless, Chris raised an eyebrow at her. "What?"Kathryn was conflicted as she looked at Chris. "Um, would you believe me if I said I wasn't trying to seduce you?""Would

"Then take Ms. Adams with you," Chris said."No need. Tally is going with me." When Chris heard Tally's name again, he frowned. It was obvious he didn't like how close Kathryn was to her. "Is that why you invited her to dinner last night?""Mm-hmm." Kathryn hadn't sensed his disapproval, but she could feel the bedroom turn cold the moment she answered. She felt bad just looking at Chris' terrible mood.She didn't even do anything. Why was he mad again? Kathryn had no idea why Chris was mad at her, but she didn't have the time to think about it right now.Luckily, Chris didn't say much and simply said, "Sleep a little longer if you're tired. Ms. Adams will heat up your food.""Oh, okay." Kathryn nodded.Once Chris left, the tension in the bedroom was much lighter. Kathryn really was tired. She felt like her whole body was boneless.She'd done her research before, and she knew this meant her belly was going to swell. She'd already noticed that her belly wasn't as flat as it used

Adrian told him this was normal for pregnant women. In the early stages of pregnancy, they would get morning sickness, then become sleepy all the time once the morning sickness subsided.After that, they would get emotionally unstable. The exact severity varied, but Adrian had said these symptoms were normal for Kathryn, so Chris relaxed once he heard that. At noon, Kathryn took a while to get out of bed after Wendy's second call woke her up. Then, she called Tally and said, "I've checked the map, and it will take me half an hour to get there. You should head out too.""Alright, send me the address. I'll head over right now.""Okay." Kathryn hung up, sent the address, and then got dressed. When Cara heard Kathryn was going outside, she quickly went up to her. "Finally, you're awake. Mr. Chris was worried about you."When she heard Chris' worried tone during the phone call, Cara was happy for them. She'd always thought Chris was a cold person who would never worry about someon
