Bright Future With Him Chapter 418
But Jessica still didn't pick up after three or four calls. In the end, Kathryn had no choice but to call Matthew to confirm Jessica was okay.When Matthew told her that Jessica was with Kelly, Kathryn finally relaxed. "Okay, got it. I was just calling to make sure she got there. She wasn't answering her calls.""Okay.""Thanks. Bye." She had always been this polite with Matthew. Even when he and Jessica were still married, they always talked with a lukewarm attitude to each other.However, Kathryn was still a little bit worried about Jessica. Back when she was with the Quintons, she didn't get to save a lot of money because of Wendy.And now that Kelly was in the hospital … The more Kathryn thought about it, the more worried she got.When Chris got out of the shower, he saw her rolling all over the bed. As he walked over while drying his hair, Kathryn hastily sat up straight.The moment Chris tossed her a towel, she knew what to do and moved behind him to dry his hair."Someth

When Chris saw her being mad but also too scared to say anything, his smile softened. So, he held her face and kissed her deeply.Kathryn didn't know what to say. He was doing it again. However, her rationality was quickly overwhelmed by Chris. She tried to stay logical, but she didn't have a lot of brains to begin with, so she couldn't defend herself against his passion at all.Two hours later, Kathryn huffed and flipped over. She was miserable, especially since she was sore all over."Does it hurt?" Chris' gentle voice rang out.Kathryn glared at him. "What if you get me pregnant like this?"Chris fell silent. This girl was getting smarter, testing him like that after what they did. So, he placed his palm on her belly, which was already getting harder. "Do you want kids?"His gentle, flirtatious move made Kathryn shrink back on instinct and turn around. "I said 'if'," she grumbled.Her headstrong attitude put a smile on Chris' face. "If you want them, just say so.""But we—

She had no idea why, but she had been feeling tired for the past few days. Before she could say anything, the Albert Manor called, and its butler said, "Mr. Chris, you need to come back!""I'm busy. Call me again at noon.""But Mr. Franco said if you don't come back now, you'd be coming back to a corpse later on!"Chris raised an eyebrow and looked at Kathryn instinctively. She was stuffing a meatball into her mouth, making her cheeks puff up as she chewed in satisfaction.He smiled at her, then switched to a cold tone when he talked to the butler, "Got it." Then, he hung up and looked at Kathryn with interest.All of a sudden, he felt that life was more interesting with someone who wasn't picky. Kathryn only noticed Chris' gaze on her when she was eating her fifth meatball. "Why are you looking at me like that?" She looked at him with annoyance."Is it good?""Yes, it is." Kathryn nodded. She hadn't needed to worry about food since she came to Sunshine Bay. When they first
Bright Future With Him Chapter 421
Those four words made everyone gasp. There was dead silence for a full minute as Krista's arrogant look became frozen on her face. She looked at Chris in disbelief, then at Franco.She thought she had misheard him, but Franco also froze for a moment. He soon recovered and looked at Chris in disbelief. "What did you say?"Krista stood with her breath held. Savanna looked at both Chris and Kathryn in disbelief. Clearly, they'd thought their marriage was over when Chris took control of BreezCorizon.And yet, Chris was here with her and demanding Baydem Group. What he wanted was obvious. As Chris sat Kathryn down before crossing his legs in his seat, he looked elegant and domineering at the same time.His cold gaze met Franco's fiery glare, and he smiled. "What I want is perfectly reasonable.""Chris!" Franco said with gritted teeth. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes, shaking all over. He finally realized that this boy had grown up so much that he was out of his control. O
Bright Future With Him Chapter 422
Krista finally realized why Chris' mother had been silent for all these years. She didn't even call Franco in protest when Krista had used Albert Group's money to invest overseas.She had been biding her time, hadn't she? She had been sharpening her weapon, Chris. What a smart move, Martha Kent!Krista's chest heaved. "I'm not handing Baydem Group over. You can marry whoever you want!" She had been forced to the point of madness, and she was so mad that she didn't even care about the Winchesters anymore.When Franco heard what she said, he glared at her and couldn't hold back from slapping Krista with a loud smack. The entire room fell silent. It was like everyone had turned to stone as they looked at Krista, who in turn looked at Franco in disbelief. She looked like her world had turned upside down."Y-You …""You shut the hell up!" Franco, too, had gone mad. Chris could marry whoever he wanted, huh? That would have been fine half a year ago.But after he had found out about
Bright Future With Him Chapter 423
Krista looked at Chris in disbelief. Chris might have grown up overseas, but he came back every year. She thought that he wouldn't be able to do anything if she watched him grow up.And yet, in the end … "You made a deal with the Blakes too?" Franco looked at Krista with rage. Who did she think she was to mess with someone like them? The Winchesters were already a pain in the neck, and now the Blakes were involved too. Franco was so pissed that he had lost his mind. As Krista looked at an enraged Franco, her stubbornness gave way to a hint of weakness. "What else was I supposed to do? Let Chris take everything away from Phineas?" she roared, but it was obvious that she was feeling helpless. How did things get to this point in such a short time? She couldn't believe it … especially Franco. He was supposed to be a man she could rely on, and yet he was sending her into a pit of despair.As the Albert family descended into chaos, Chris took Kathryn's hand and rose. "I'll let yo
Bright Future With Him Chapter 424
What was going on? If Krista had known Chris would oppose her this strongly, she never would have let him leave alive.Krista was so furious she ground her teeth. Just as Franco was about to lose his temper again, Savanna said firmly, "Both of you need to take a walk."After all, things had happened so quickly that it was pointless to discuss it right now. Finally, Franco swallowed his words upon Savanna's advice, scoffed, and left Albert Manor.Seeing Franco leave Albert Manor so many times pissed Krista off even more. "You see that? This is how he treats me nowadays! He barely cares about me!"Every time he got mad, he would go out. When did things get so bad between them? He used to reassure her after every fight. The more Krista thought about it, the more unfair she thought it was.Savanna took a deep breath. "Alright, let's not worry about his attitude for now." It was undeniable that Franco had changed, and they were unlikely to change him back.The only thing they coul

In the car, Chris took Kathryn's hand. When he felt coldness, he frowned. "Why didn't you wear more layers? You're so cold.""I was probably so scared that it messed with my blood circulation," Kathryn said. She actually wasn't that cold.Chris froze upon hearing her reply. "You're so cowardly. What am I going to do with you?" He was there with her at Albert Manor. Wasn't she able to piss them off to the point of sending them to the hospital, too?However, this was different. This time, Kathryn had been scared by those people's craziness and shouting. Meanwhile, Kathryn looked at him with disapproval and took her hand back, still blushing. Every time Chris touched her, all she could think about were the dirty memories of their intimacy.When Chris noticed her red face, he pinched it fondly. "What's wrong?""Don't touch me!""Oh? What will happen if I do?" Chris said with a suggestive tone that almost made Kathryn stop breathing. This man was acting completely different comp

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

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.
