Bright Future With Him Chapter 471
The living room fell silent instantly. Tally trembled with fear, her heart pounding as she awaited her fate. Chris, who was sitting on the couch, casually asked, "Is that all?"Tally sensed a significant undertone in his question, one that was both perilous and chilling."S-She's pregnant as well."Regret coursed through Tally the instant those words left her lips. She wished she could have held her tongue.In a strange way, she felt a slight relief that Kathryn had run away. In her heart, she earnestly hoped that Kathryn had managed to escape far enough to evade the clutches of the menacing man before her.Randall began to apologize fervently to Chris, repeatedly asserting that he had only learned about it that very night. He went on to explain that if he had been aware earlier, he would have immediately compelled Tally to come and apologize.Tally had harbored a sense that events would unfold in this manner, yet she remained profoundly frightened by the events of that ni
Bright Future With Him Chapter 472
Kathryn had no idea how to explain her way out of this one to Chris. The escape plan she had devised earlier in the day had vanished from her mind as she impulsively fled the car and into the chaotic traffic.Kathryn suspected that Chris had likely already reviewed the surveillance camera footage, making it challenging for her to provide an explanation for her impulsive actions."C-Can I don't go back?" Kathryn asked. She had the urge to cry.Jordan frowned. "I'll ask Mr. Albert to fetch you, then?"Kathryn couldn't bear the thought of Chris coming to retrieve her. The prospect was torturous, and she knew he wouldn't forgive her easily unless she could provide a compelling reason.As she recalled Chris' cold, impassive expression, Kathryn felt as if she were on the verge of losing her sanity. She had no other choice but to follow Jordan and climb into the waiting car....As they contemplated Kathryn's actions from earlier that afternoon, the child safety lock in the car had bee

Tally felt like she was on the brink of madness when Chris informed them that they would only learn about the fate of Johnson Group in three days. "Mr. Albert, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean it. I wanted to help Kathryn to get an abortion too, but …"The living room's atmosphere instantly turned frigid when Tally mentioned abortion, and she fought back tears."Kathryn simply couldn't bring herself to get rid of the child. If you really don't want it, there's still time for her to get an abortion.""Shut up!"Randall was about to lose it, desperate for Tally to cease her dialogue, sensing that her words were exacerbating the situation. He dreaded that the consequences could escalate if she persisted.He quickly pulled Tally up from the ground and immediately led her out of the room. As she passed by Kathryn, Tally reached out and clasped her hand, saying, "Kathryn, I'm sorry. I can't protect you anymore.""Hurry up and leave!" Randall had the urge to knock her out to take her
Bright Future With Him Chapter 474
Kathryn remembered that Tally was on her knees when she entered the room. She wondered if Tally had confessed everything to Chris.She recollected that Randall had also been present, and Tally had likely disclosed nearly everything to him as well. Kathryn's heart pounded in her chest as she considered this.Chris remained silent, and an eerie silence pervaded the air.Kathryn could no longer withstand the uneasy atmosphere. She gritted her teeth and said, "It was me who was in Northvale that night."Kathryn had finally reached this point, driven by the relentless pressure from Chris. She had done her utmost to safeguard her house and bank savings, and the thought of losing them left her deeply distressed. She couldn't forget the hardships she endured while saving for the down payment on her house.Regret gnawed at her, but she realized she had reached her breaking point, especially when she recalled the scene of Tally on her knees moments ago. She had no choice but to reveal t
Bright Future With Him Chapter 475
Chris knew Kathryn and Tally had been covering for each other, no matter the circumstances during that period. His smile deepened. He assumed that Kathryn was able to survive all these years because she had Tally by her side.Kathryn's head dipped even more upon learning that Tally had admitted everything. "C-Could you please don't give Tally a hard time?""You're still going to defend her?""I threatened her back then. I told her I would kill myself if she won't help me.""Let me remind you, you're in a difficult position yourself now," Chris remarked ruthlessly.Kathryn was stunned again. She was suddenly aware that she couldn't save her own skin after what had just happened, let alone focus on Tally's situation.Regardless, she remembered how Tally tried to defend her just now and became even more determined. "It's true. I've indeed threatened her to do that."Chris scoffed."Just vent your anger on me if you're angry. This really has nothing to do with Tally."Kathryn co
Bright Future With Him Chapter 476
Chris nodded.Kathryn gazed at Chris in disbelief. She couldn't fathom how he had accepted her request so readily. In the past, she would have faced severe consequences for something like this, possibly even risking her life, let alone her job, house, and bank savings."When did I not keep my promise?""Of course not. You've always kept your promises." Kathryn had become cheerful instantly. Her eyes, which had been filled with fear, were bright with happiness at the moment."But how do you think I should punish Tally?"Kathryn was speechless. The emotions that had begun to well up with happiness were abruptly frozen in her chest."I-It really has nothing to do with her!" Kathryn stammered anxiously.She had considered confessing to Chris on several occasions before. Still, her fear that Tally and the Johnson Group would become entangled in the situation had led her to keep it a secret until today. Kathyrn noticed that Chris looked unmoved. She wanted to continue speaking, b
Bright Future With Him Chapter 477
That was … Besides, hadn't Randall said Chris would go easy on them for being honest? Why did things look so bad? Tally really regretted her choice now. They'd turned themselves into lambs for the slaughter, all because of Kathryn.Nervously and with conflicted feelings, she turned to Markus. "Um, do you plan to keep your promise? You said you'd help protect Johnson Group if I earned ten million for Skyline Group.""What I said was I'd help you keep the secret, wasn't it?"Tally fell silent. Come to think of it, that was indeed what he had said. Feeling the pressure of the rapid interrogation, Tally couldn't hold back any longer and confessed the truth."Seriously, why did you go and confess like a stupid person?""It wasn't me! It was my dad!" Tally wanted to cry just thinking about it. Her father might not have managed Johnson Group very well, but he was an honorable man.She must have gone mad. Why did she ever tell her father the truth? What was she going to do? "Is the
Bright Future With Him Chapter 478
"Some solutions have a price." Markus emphasized the word "price", making Tally raise an eyebrow. She suddenly teared up as she recalled everything her dad had gone through for Johnson Group. "What kind of price?""That depends on what you're willing to do for Johnson Group." Markus' tone became unreadable. She couldn't tell what he was feeling, but she could tell she was at the edge of an abyss that she could fall into at any time.Tally felt like she couldn't breathe, but she still tried to take a deep breath and asked, "What do I need to do?""You'd do anything?""That depends on what I need to do.""Then Johnson Group must not be very important to you," Markus said with a chuckle that grated on Tally's ears.How could it not be important to her? She knew why Randall had sent her out to work. It was so that she could manage the company better in the future.Johnson Group was his life's work, and he wanted to hand it over to someone capable. As his only child, Randall natu

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
Bright Future With Him Chapter 1337
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.
