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.

    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

    Krista's tone was dangerously icy. As long as she was alive, Chris could forget about expanding overseas.When Savanna heard that Krista had taken care of it, she frowned. "What arrangements have you made?"She'd also made arrangements. If things went smoothly, Wendy would leave with that girl today. As long as she was out of here, everything would get back on track.Savanna's heart twinged when she thought about the girl being taken away by a woman like that, but she had no choice. They needed to survive this setback first.Krista scoffed in response to Savanna's question. "Obviously, I'm getting rid of the problem once and for all.""What do you mean, once and for all?" Savanna was shocked. Even though Krista was her daughter, looking into her eyes made Savanna's chest seize up.Murderous intent flashed in Krista's eyes again. "Even if we got rid of Kathryn, there will always be another woman to replace her."Savanna was stunned into silence."But right now, we need to get ri

    Krista was already getting impatient. "Wait a minute, what are you trying to do, Mom?""Call them first!" Savanna didn't have the time to explain. All she wanted was to put a stop to this. She knew her daughter, so she had some idea of what she had planned.Either she was going to kill Kathryn, or she was going to ruin her. When Krista saw how cold Savanna was and the anger in her eyes, she picked up the phone again. She called thrice in a row, yet no one picked up. "No answer. They're probably …""Where are they?" Savanna's heart practically leaped into her throat when no one picked up the phone."I don't know. They told me they had followed Kathryn outside half an hour ago. If everything goes well, they should have finished the job by now."Savanna fell silent. She was already getting weak in the knees. She backed up a few more steps when she heard Krista's reply before falling to the floor.Krista's annoyance only grew when Savanna fell. She hated Kathryn with her entire sou

    "Why did you bring that up?" Krista asked. "Krista, you're doing something unforgivable. Do you know that? We're …" "We are what?"Savanna couldn't bring herself to continue. They had truly committed the unforgivable. Bad karma really did exist. That child was here to even the score!Krista had no idea why Savanna would say that. "Today was an accident. I need to hang onto BreezCorizon!"If Kathryn hadn't been sticking so close to Chris, she wouldn't have lost her mind like this. So what if she did something unforgivable to protect her and Phineas' futures?If there were any consequences, then let her shoulder it! She needed to secure her Phineas' future."You! Get out!" Savanna closed her eyes in agony."Mom!""I need to be alone!"Krista fell silent. Watching Savanna like this, she thought it was because she'd gone too far with Kathryn. Her mother couldn't handle that. But hadn't Savanna done the same thing to all the women who had tried to seduce Franco? Which part of

    Meanwhile, Chris was in the middle of a meeting at Albert Group when Kathryn called him. He frowned, so Tara stepped forward and asked, "Shall I take the call for you outside?"After all, this was an important meeting. So, it wasn't a good time to take the call now.However, Chris shook his head and made a "pause" gesture before he answered the call. "Yes?" His tone instantly became gentler.Everyone in the meeting looked at Chris in surprise. He'd previously been cold and stern, and it was obvious they'd never seen his gentle side. But the voice on the phone wasn't Kathryn's. Anxiously, the voice asked, "Hello, sir. May I inquire about the owner of this phone?"Chris' demeanor turned cold when he realized it wasn't Kathryn. "Did she lose her phone?" he asked coldly."No, we're calling from the Emergency Room of Central West Hospital. The owner of this phone has just gotten into an accident, and we're trying to contact her next of kin."Kathryn had no contacts listed on her pho

    When the doctor saw Chris, he thought he looked familiar but couldn't remember who he was. So, he walked up and asked, "Sir, who are you?""Her next of kin," Markus answered before Chris could say anything. When the doctor realized Chris was here for Kathryn, he nodded and left.Chris walked to the bed. His gaze was full of iciness when he saw Kathryn lying on the bed. Markus had followed the doctor out, so it was just the two of them.When Kathryn saw that Chris was there, her expression turned pitiful."What happened?" Chris looked Kathryn up and down. When he realized she was alright, he sighed with relief. No one knew just how anxious he was on the way there.He almost wished he could teleport to her side. That was how nervous he had been. Nothing had happened to her while they were together, but they'd barely been separated for a day when she ran into such a major incident.Kathryn looked at Chris miserably. "An accident.""On the way to see Wendy?"Kathryn nodded. "Mm-

    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.
