Tally adapted a light-hearted tone when she spoke. Her mood had visibly brightened.

However, the reason behind her newfound cheerfulness wasn't related to any internal matters within the Johnson Group or Randall.

Victor leaned in closer. The proximity made Tally blush. She had instinctively attempted to move away.

But in the next moment, Victor's warm palm gently held the back of Tally's head.

"What are you doing?" Tally's voice stuttered due to the sudden romantic atmosphere.

"Do you have any news about Kathryn?" Victor's words made Tally freeze.

"Stop spouting such nonsensical stuff!" Tally warned.

"Nothing significant happened in Johnson Group lately, not to mention there isn't any positive news coming from your dad's side. So, why are you in such a good mood?" Victor questioned.

"I'm not in a good mood!"

"It's written all over your face!" Victor ruthlessly pointed out.

Tally was speechless. After all these years, she was still wearing her heart on her sleeve despite he

    Chris' expression grew colder when Krista appeared with such attitude and timing.His tone couldn't completely hide the sarcasm when Krista spoke. "You seem to care a lot about Kathryn. Why is that?"Krista furrowed her brows when she faced Chris' veiled mockery. Her stare at him turned icier, and her expression grew more somber. The two of them locked eyes in a silent standoff.In an instant, the atmosphere in the office seemed to freeze. It made everyone shiver within the regulated temperature.After a moment, Krista finally spoke up, "You should know this is my final concession."Concession? Giving up Baydem Group to Kathryn and then altogether leaving Harborlean? Yes, that was Krista's first and last concession. She hoped that this concession would secure Kathryn's happiness. But who could have predicted that the truth would come out in such a short time? And Chris didn't show a shred of concern for the pregnant Kathryn—not even for his unborn child.Chris' eyes flashed w

    Emily clenched her teeth in frustration while glaring at Krista's distant, haughty posture. Hatred gleamed in her eyes. She believed that nobody could surpass Krista when it came to creating problems.Emily's anger was so intense that she ground her teeth together. While Krista might not be able to outwit Chris, she wouldn't allow herself to be outdone when dealing with others.She had only just returned, yet she had already managed to irk Emily.Meanwhile, Wendy and the Gavins, who were at Everburns Highlands, were contending with a sudden and devastating misfortune. Things hadn't been easy for them. They had recently healed from their prior injuries, only to be unexpectedly attacked once more. The assailants were unknown to them.Wendy was lying on the bed.

We've returned to the countryside. Why did we get be

    After careful consideration, Tally thought that getting rid of Issac, whom she believed was a loose cannon, was necessary.Irina nodded as Kathryn said so, but she continued, "You're right, but it won't be easy to take the shares away from someone ambitious like him."Issac was holding such a significant amount of shares that it was possible for him to take over Johnson Group. It was needless to say how precious the shares were to him."There's no chance for us to take it from him through the normal procedures. We have to think of some other way," Tally said.Irina asked, "Have you come up with something?""Both of Issac's sons are married, but it seems that the families of his daughters-in-law are not to be trifled with.""What do you mean?""Splitting the family assets." Tally's lips bloomed into a sly grin.She knew that one of the common reasons that would cause a family to break up was the splitting of family assets. The family's properties had to be divided when family

    Markus was furious upon discovering that Victor had consistently met with Tally.Henry was able to feel the tension Markus was emanating. He was worried that he might be diagnosed with heart disease in the near future if he kept working in an atmosphere like this."How is the Johnson Group recently?" Markus asked in a cold voice.Tally had been reluctant to see him for the past few days, but Markus was still paying close attention to what was happening around her. Henry pondered and replied, "Everything's almost settled. The only remaining issue is Isaac Clark. He has been carrying out schemes behind Ms. Johnson's back.""Nothing else?""Nothing else." Henry shook his head.Markus had to acknowledge Irina's competence. The transition of leadership within Johnson Group, which was expected to be a significant issue, had been resolved within a matter of days.Markus' face darkened even more. He lit up a cigarette and remained silent. The ominous glint in his eyes instilled an une

    Chris remained silent."So, I guess she knows where your wife is now," Victor said."Did you—""I tried asking about it for you, but Tally insisted that she knew nothing no matter what I asked. What else could I do?" Victor interjected before Chris could finish asking.Tally was determined not to tell Chris where Kathryn was this time.Upon hearing that, Chris grew even more irritated. "Why didn't you remind her that Kathryn's seven months pregnant now?""I told her about it, but she still insisted that she knew nothing." Victor had no idea what else he could do, as no matter what he asked, Tally would only reply that she knew nothing.Chris was seething with irritation, and his annoyance was palpable.He had no intentions to talk with Victor anymore. He stood up, wanting to leave his office.Observing Chris' actions, Victor quickly rose and grabbed him by his arm. "Where are you headed?""I'm going to talk to Tally.""No. You know, I think I'm not so sure about it either. I

    "Which stage are you in now?" Victor immediately asked."Stage 4."Stage 4? Victor was stunned that Chris' illness was already that serious. He had never noticed that something was wrong with him before.How could Chris be diagnosed with stage 4 liver cancer all of a sudden?Victor's uncle had passed away because of liver cancer. He was lamenting how men could still die because of disease no matter what kind of hardships they had gone through in life.Liver cancer didn't sound like a severe illness under modern medical practices. Yet, each patient was so different that their survival rates actually depended on their body conditions."This is why you proposed a divorce with Kathryn, right?"Victor believed that Chris had only come across the fact that Kathryn was Krista's daughter at this point. Everyone familiar with Chris knew that he was a person who knew how to distinguish between right and wrong.Considering Chris' typical approach to resolving issues, Victor believed that

    A misdiagnosis would spell serious trouble for the hospital, especially with Harborlean in its current state. Chris likely wouldn't settle for a mere hospital apology.Chris immediately made an internal call. The call was being picked up instantly. "Mr. Albert.""Ask the hospital to notify the specialists immediately. I want a follow-up now.""What? But the hospital said that you could just visit tomorrow—""Right now!" Chris growled with anger.Tara had no idea what was going on. Her mind went blank as Chris yelled at her. Nonetheless, she promptly replied, "Alright, I'll notify the hospital to arrange the follow-up immediately."Chris was so infuriated that he smashed the phone.Victor's lips involuntarily twitched, and he couldn't help but question the diagnosis further. It seemed quite likely that it was a misdiagnosis, given that Chris hadn't collapsed, even in the midst of his fury.He was certain that the hospital was in big trouble....Tara, Victor, and Chris arriv

    Victor's body trembled upon hearing Chris' words. He chased after Chris. Just as Chris was about to get into his car, Victor grabbed his arm."Uh, what are you going to do with the hospital?"Chris paused. He turned back and glanced coldly at Victor. Victor looked upset. "I-I'm sorry …"His apology made Chris recall that the hospital was one of the Glenns' properties. Surprisingly, it was established by Victor, who seemed entirely unrelated to the medical field.Chris' face darkened even more when he remembered that the hospital was under Victor's name. He snapped, "Look at the doctors you've hired. They're a bunch of useless rubbish!"Chris was on the verge of exploding. "I …" Victor had no idea what was happening, but Chris was facing a big problem. Chris had no idea where Kathryn was now.After some contemplation, Victor said, "I owe you an explanation." Victor cursed the doctor who had carried out the medical checkup for Chris.It was an entirely unacceptable mistake

    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.
