"Are you in a hurry?" Benjamin raised his eyebrows.

Arthur didn't reply to his question but gave him a look instead. There was no doubt that he was anxious about it. They hadn't given up on looking for the child for years. He was undoubtedly anxious about it as they had some clues now.

Besides, his health was worsening day by day.

"Have you called your brother?" Arthur asked.

"He hasn't been answering my calls, but he called me today."

Benjamin was speechless with Travis' behavior as well. He hadn't returned home ever since their mother had passed away. He even became estranged from Arthur and disliked Susan.

"What did he say? Will he come back on your grandmother's birthday?"

Benjamin shook his head. "He didn't mention it."

He was reluctant to talk about the phone call he'd had with Travis.

Arthur wasn't worried at all. Benjamin wondered why Arthur was anxious about it all of a sudden.

Arthur sighed. "Try to ask him to find the chance to come back."

    Travis had just warned Benjamin about Chris' wife that afternoon. There was no doubt that he wouldn't sound friendly when he heard that Benjamin was asking about Chris now. "What do you want?""I want to meet Kathryn."Travis went silent instantly."Have you lost your mind?" he asked."It isn't what you think. We should meet and talk." Benjamin gritted his teeth. It was such a long story that it was difficult for him to make things clear over the phone."Come to Island Bay," Travis said."Okay." Benjamin was relieved as Travis didn't reject his request.He noticed that Susan was still in Mrs. Winchester Senior's arms as he went downstairs. She was still calming Susan down patiently.Susan immediately looked away as she saw him. She was reluctant to look at him. She thought that Benjamin would come to comfort her.Yet, Benjamin ignored her as he had no time and walked away briskly.Susan waited for a moment, but Benjamin didn't approach her. She noticed he had left as she was

    Benjamin was so frustrated that he nearly hit something. "She might be the younger sister we've been looking for."He wondered if he was straightforward enough this time. He thought what he had said was understandable. He couldn't stand it anymore.The room fell silent instantly.Travis tightened his grip on the wine glass he was holding. He could hardly breathe."What did you say?""We've been looking for our sister for years, right? I think Kathryn might be our sister."Travis was too stunned to speak."You know who Kathryn is, right? She's Chris' wife. She might also be our sister!"Benjamin tried to make things clearer. He was worried that Travis wouldn't understand.He believed that things weren't that complicated. He was only telling Travis that Chris' wife might also be their sister.Travis' heart was immediately in his mouth. "Sister? Are you sure?""I'm not sure yet, but she has a scar behind her neck, which is in exactly the same spot Mother told us about back then

    Meanwhile, Chris, Travis, and Benjamin had arrived at the study.Chris noticed that Benjamin was lighting up a cigarette. He immediately snapped, "Don't smoke in here."Benjamin's hand, which was holding a cigarette between his fingers, paused. "There's no children or pregnant women in here."He couldn't understand why Chris was stopping him."They might come in at any second," Chris replied. He had completely forbidden anyone to smoke at places where Kathryn and the baby might go now, including himself.Benjamin had been holding grudges against him, especially when Kathryn was discharged from the hospital immediately after she had just given birth. He was secretly complaining about how hypocritical Chris was at the moment for behaving like that. He was displeased about it but still put out the cigarette.Chris was satisfied when Benjamin had finally put out the cigarette. He looked toward Travis, "What on Earth brings you here at this hour?"Travis glanced at Benjamin. Benjam

    Travis couldn't believe Kathryn had grown up in that kind of environment.He wasn't certain if Kathryn was his sister. Yet, a dark cloud settled on his face.He reached for the cup in front of him and took a sip from it.He didn't answer Chris. He responded with a question, "So, Kathryn did get a burn on the back of her neck, huh? Did you ask how she got that burn?"Chris never asked where the burn came from.He knew how much pain she went through looking at that big burn scar. He couldn't bear to inquire further about it."Can I see her?" Travis asked."You can't. She just gave birth. I'm sure she's asleep now."Chris wasn't sure what he felt. He insisted not to let them meet.He thought about it and added, "She couldn't possibly be your sister.""How could you be so sure?" Travis panicked.His father only had six months left. He had to get this sorted out as soon as possible.If Kathryn wasn't his sister, he would need to spend more time and energy to find his sister.So

    Chris kept silent.No one knew what he was thinking. Benjamin didn't think it was difficult to answer this question.Yet, Chris waited for five minutes before he put the glass down. He said with an inexplicable tone, "I need to discuss this with her.""Discuss? What is there to discuss?" Benjamin didn't understand.Yet, Travis shot him a look right after what he said.Chris had always given careful thought to things. He had his reasons for giving such a response.Benjamin was unhappy at Travis' look. Yet, he had to keep his mouth shut.Travis noticed Benjamin no longer spoke. Then, he turned to Chris. "What are you concerned about?"He knew Chris well.If he had no concerns, he would have agreed to his request.The next thing he knew, Chris replied, "I'm sure you would look out for her if you think she is your sister. If you don't want to make things difficult for her, I suggest for you not to do anything rash for now.""What do you mean?" Benjamin was befuddled.What did h

    "In short, if Krista learned Kathryn was not her daughter, she would be a threat to Kathryn.""Why should we be afraid of that woman?" Benjamin was angry.He didn't see Krista as a threat.Travis massaged his temples. "We don't need to be. However, this woman is malicious. She will play dirty if she needs to."So, after careful consideration, they shouldn't jump the gun on this matter.Benjamin heard Travis' explanation and sensed the severity of the matter. They had to be careful not to get hurt. Some people just played dirty."Then, what should we do now? Dad doesn't have much time left. He wants to find our sister before he goes.""What do you mean he doesn't have much time left?"Travis frowned."Don't you know? Dad was diagnosed with uremia three months ago."Travis was rendered speechless.He didn't have a clue about it.Now, his heart didn't react much to the news.He felt somewhat shocked.Benjamin noticed Travis' silence. "Why do you hate Dad so much? Is it becau

    The baby's crying was too loud. Kathryn woke up from the noise before Chris could carry the baby away.She opened her eyes blurrily, "What is it? What is it? Is he hungry again?""Sleep. I will take him to the nanny.""Don't. Let me handle him," Kathryn muttered.It must have been her motherly instincts. A mother would always be sensitive to her baby's crying.Perhaps today was her first day of being a mother, so Kathryn still had energy.Yet, Chris didn't allow her to budge. "Lie down and don't move."That little rascal. How could he tire his mother out while she was in confinement?Chris brought the little darling out of the room.Frank had hired four nannies.Their room was opposite theirs to make things easy.The nannies came out the moment she heard the baby's crying.Chris handed the baby to them and said, "Please don't bother her at night from now on."When he went to the study, the baby was with the nannies.All of them were frightened by his cold tone. They quick

    Kathryn pouted and didn't want to talk anymore.She missed her baby dearly.Her breathing gradually became steady as she thought about her baby.Yet, Chris, who had her in his arms, suddenly opened his eyes.His eyes were sharp in the dark, staring at the back of her neck. He touched the scar with his hand, and it felt uneven like before.When he saw the scar for the first time, he wondered who would ruthlessly burn her.He initially thought it was Wendy. Now, he never expected the Winchesters to have a hand in this.Yet, it didn't matter whether it was Wendy or the Winchesters. Both parties were certain Kathryn was related to them because of this scar.So, was she Krista's daughter or Travis's sister?It didn't matter whether it was Krista or the Winchesters. He hoped it was neither of them.Travis hated his father so much that he refused to return home. This was for a valid reason.…Chris didn't inform Franco and Martha about Kathryn giving birth to a boy.They only fou

    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

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.
