Bright Future With Him Chapter 370
Jessica had just placed the noodles into the pot when she noticed the caller was Kathryn. She picked up the phone and said, "Kathryn?""Did Wendy call you?" Kathryn asked directly.Jessica frowned. "No, but Maxwell did.""Was he asking you to go to the hospital?""I'm not going!" Jessica responded immediately. They were becoming increasingly in sync these days. The moment Kathryn asked, Jessica understood what she meant.Kathryn sighed with relief at Jessica's answer."Are you going?""It's not a big deal that she ended up in the hospital. Don't listen to them!" Tally had her limits, after all. Wendy was just exaggerating things to make her show up.Either way, they needed to stand their ground regardless of Wendy's condition. "Got it," Jessica said with a frown. She wasn't giving up either, no matter how many times they called, because she understood this too. Then again, she was also disappointed in them.She was so disappointed that she couldn't be moved no matter what We

That night, while Wendy and her family spent the night in anxiety, Kathryn slept soundly. As for Chris, he spent the entire night awake and enraged.When Kathryn woke up in the morning, she saw Chris sitting on a chair near the floor-to-ceiling windows. They were a bit far apart, but she could still sense his annoyance.Her movements alerted him the moment she got up, and he looked at her. "You're awake. Did you sleep well?" His voice was a little pointed. He was most likely annoyed. Since Kathryn had slept well and was already fully awake, she could sense the apparent annoyance. However, she had no idea what had ruined Chris' mood so early in the morning."Mm-hmm, I slept well." Kathryn nodded. "You?""I didn't!"Kathryn fell silent. Well … Chris stared at a well-rested Kathryn. Kathryn had complained about not being used to sleeping here, but she slept decently last night. But the worst thing of all was that she snored.Adrian had warned him that women would undergo many ch

Kathryn quickly took the glass and gulped down half its contents to relieve the fear in her heart."You have another cold?" Chris asked."Maybe," Kathryn quickly answered. She prayed that Chris would stop talking because every time he did … she couldn't keep up at all. She was terrified that all her efforts would be wasted at the last minute.Chris touched her forehead, then said, "Hmm, there's no fever this time.""Sometimes, there aren't any," Kathryn said.Chris stared at her lying face. She was completely unaware that she looked like a joke to him. She was still lying, trying to hang on until she and Chris were no longer married.Markus arrived at breakfast time. Chris took one look at Kathryn and said, "Don't go to Albert Group today. Stay here.""Oh." Usually, Kathryn would never want to be there, but Chris' words from this morning had shaken her. Now, she couldn't wait until she and Chris were apart.If she got interrogated a few more times like today, she probably wou

Chris and Markus left after breakfast, so Frank sent some servants to take care of Kathryn. Since last night, everyone had seen how Chris treated Kathryn, so they didn't dare show her a hint of disrespect. However, some were still too blind to see the truth and gossiped about Kathryn behind her back."I heard Mrs. Albert is a country bumpkin who was a lowly assistant for Mr. Chris.""I saw that article. I didn't believe it at first. Can you imagine how many tricks she must have pulled?""I know! Even when Ms. Davis came back, she refused to give up the position. She's so shameless!""You can't blame her for that. She went through all that effort to leave the countryside, and now that she's got a foot in Mr. Chris' door, there's no way she wouldn't try to get his heart too.""But she doesn't have any skills, does she? Look at her. She's like a block of wood. Back when I served Ms. Davis, at least she knew how to make soup for him."Kathryn wanted to bask in the sun, but that w
Bright Future With Him Chapter 374
The one who had served Mia before looked down on Kathryn even more because she thought Mia was much kinder than she was. Hence, she was confident that Chris would soon tire of such a cruel mistress. After all, she was a country bumpkin! She was so quick to hold a grudge that it was disgusting. When Nalia heard that someone would punish them, she let go of the servant's face and glared at her. "Pack your things. You won't have much time left, after all."Nalia huffed before walking over to Kathryn. "Let me take you to the conservatory, Mrs. Albert.""Okay." Kathryn nodded. Nalia studied Kathryn's expression but was surprised to find there wasn't a single trace of anger. Nalia thought it was to be expected from a woman Chris had handpicked. Her emotional control was superb.When the other servants saw this, they immediately alerted Frank. After he heard that the servants were fighting, he quickly came up.He found both the servants with red hand prints on their faces, and his

Chris took a puff at the cigarette in his hand and sneered. "Krista is desperate now and clutching at straws. What a waste to send Charlie there! He can't be that blind to not notice that the Blake family is wolves in sheep's skin!" he thought to himself.Krista tried to use the Blake family. She wanted to shield herself from the danger brought by the Winchesters. Little did she know she was walking straight into the lion's den.Andrea Blake was a smart woman. Krista might get what she wanted this time, but it would only be a temporary relief. The Blake family would be harder to shake off compared to the Winchesters."Did the Blake family accept the proposal?" Chris snuffed his cigarette in the ashtray as he asked coldly."They didn't, but Krista had increased her bargaining power," Markus said.Chris had expected that to happen.The Blake family was greedy. Chris, who had stayed overseas long enough, knew it better than anyone else.Even though Krista might want to join force

Savanna said, "She didn't manage to see Kathryn yesterday. If she did, everything would have been different!"Krista's expression soured at the mention of yesterday. They were better off letting yesterday slip from their memories. "What are we supposed to do now? Is Kathryn really going to meet that woman?" Krista said unhappily.She never did like Kathryn in the first place, even more so Wendy.She hated Kathryn even more after learning about Wendy."The person who raised such an imbecile is probably an imbecile too," Krista thought.Savanna closed her eyes wearily. "We need to find a way for Kathryn and Wendy to meet."Krista knew Kathryn had a rocky relationship with Wendy. If they were close, Wendy would have stayed at Kathryn's house when she came to Harborlean.It wasn't completely renovated, but the basic furnishings were there. She could have prepared a place for her to stay. Yet, Kathryn didn't even budge when Wendy asked if she could stay at that house.They had the

Savanna saw how uneasy Krista looked, and her own face mirrored the concern. "What's the matter? Don't tell me …""You have to find someone to investigate him, Mom!" Krista nervously interrupted Savanna.Savanna was taken aback. "You …""We need to get to the bottom of this!"Krista's face had turned as pale as a ghost at this point. She had been so caught up in her feud with Chris that she had completely forgotten to keep tabs on Franco.Savanna saw the look on Krista's face and began to feel alarmed herself. "N-No, l-let me get this straight. You really think something is off?"Krista simply looked at her, unable to find her voice at this moment. Savanna felt like she was on the verge of hyperventilating. It felt like jumping from one crisis to another. The matter with Chris and Kathryn was already a pressing issue, and now the possibility of Franco having affairs loomed. Krista had caught Franco's eye because of her looks many years ago. The thought of it worried Savan

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.
