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

"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

Tally didn't know how she got out of Skyline Group. As she walked on the street with the wind in her face, all she felt was coldness while she replayed what Markus said over and over. At this point, it really seemed like what Markus suggested was her only option. After all, Miller Group was the perfect example of what happened when Chris got mad.That company had gone bankrupt within a short month. Chris had given her three days, but he was probably already setting things into motion.The buzzing of Tally's phone snapped her out of her thoughts. When she took it out, she realized the call was from Randall.Tears fell from her red eyes as she picked up, and she tried her best not to sound like she was crying. "Dad?""Where are you?""At the company. I'm coming back." After hanging up, she rushed home and drove for a whole hour to get there.It was already 2:00 am by then, but the lights were still on at home. It was obvious just how anxious Randall was. When she walked in, Randa

Tally lifted her head in shock. Leaving the country? He was asking her to leave the country? Tally's heart twinged. Even now, she didn't expect her father to insist on protecting her.But Chris was already pissed. If she, the mastermind, left the country now, Johnson Group would be in even more trouble. "No. No way. How could I leave now?""What are you staying for? Do you want Chris to turn you into another Amelia Miller?" Amelia had been close to Chris, yet she'd still ended up like that. There was no way Tally would be spared. That was what Randall had concluded after three hours of hard thinking.Tally couldn't help but shudder when she heard Amelia's name. That woman's ending was terrible, but she deserved it.Then again, she herself deserved it, too."Ms. Dell's already packing your things. The flight's at 6:00 am, so you're headed straight for the airport once you're done."6:00 am? So she wasn't even allowed to stay home now? Tally's tears started falling even faste

In the end, Tally didn't leave Harborlean.Randall couldn't convince her, so all he could do was stall for time with Chris. In the meantime, Tally didn't sit by idly. She'd always been so scared of marriage that she didn't even dare date a man, but she went on a ton of blind dates the next day. In fact, she went on three dates in a row, so it was obvious what she was planning to do. She didn't just need to get married. She needed a husband who could save the family.Her dates included Victor Glenn, the fourth son of the Glenns, and Travis Winchester, the Winchesters' eldest son.By 10:00 am, both men had called Chris one right after the other, asking what the Johnson girl had done to piss him off. The girl was so anxious that she even asked to marry that same day.Chris frowned. "Marry you?""Not me, she'll marry anyone who dares to marry her and help Johnson Group survive this crisis.""Oh?" Chris frowned. Tally must have been desperate. Didn't she know what these two men's

When Chris' tone suddenly became so threatening, Kathryn's heart seized up. She couldn't believe him. "Then I won't say anything. I'll stay quiet!" Kathryn didn't dare continue after hearing Chris' dangerous tone. What if something happened to the Johnsons?She hadn't anticipated that things would become this difficult to resolve at this stage."S-So, how do you plan to punish me?" Kathryn asked pitifully. Even if she couldn't talk about Tally, she could talk about herself, right?Chris hadn't reacted much since last night, so Kathryn hadn't figured out that he already knew. She still thought he only found out last night. His overly calm tone also made her very nervous.Watching Kathryn's nervousness, the corner of Chris' lips lifted. However, Kathryn only saw his smile as a dangerous omen."I haven't decided," he said.Kathryn was speechless. He hadn't decided? Did that mean he hadn't decided how to punish both her and the Johnsons?"T-Then punish me alone! I can take it," K

After hanging up, Markus called Tally right away. She must have been on another blind date because it took her a while to pick up. "Mr. Hunt?""Where are you?""I took the day off," Tally answered weakly. Markus was already in a bad mood, but he scoffed in response. "To go on blind dates?""Yep."Markus was speechless. Was this girl seriously admitting to it? Did she think this was a good thing to brag about? "You've never even dated a man, and now you're trying to marry yourself off?" he asked."Isn't that what you asked me to do? I'm trying to think of something, aren't I?" Tally said pitifully. Wasn't she trying to find someone who could talk to Chris, like he asked?She hadn't wanted to do it, but it hurt her to watch her dad be unable to sleep the whole night. Since she was staying, she was going to save Johnson Group no matter what."Have you thought of something, then? Do they want to marry you?""No!" Tally almost lost her mind just talking about it. She thought she

Wendy had owed the hospital so much money that Patrick was forced to work here too until they paid off their debt.For the past few days, Wendy had been complaining the whole time while she worked. They were supposed to pay the bills, yet her pay kept getting docked.How were they supposed to repay the hospital like this? Wendy's mouth was a loose cannon, and Patrick didn't want to suffer with her."Docking, docking. What else do they do? Crush people's bones and suck their blood dry?" Wendy said hatefully, getting angrier and angrier as she thought about her situation."Get to work, and stop complaining!""Complaining? Whose fault is it that I'm like this?" Wendy was enraged now. She remembered some guy in the village she'd looked down on moving to the big city.And her? She had to sell the Everburns Highland house and move back to the village. Everyone else's lives were getting better, but hers was only getting worse!"Call Jessica again," Wendy told Patrick. He might have bee

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.
