Cara became even more worried. "How could it be so serious? I'll call Mr. Chris. We should go to the hospital right away."

"Don't. He has a meeting in the morning," said Kathryn.

"But you're feeling unwell, Madam. What could be more important than you?" Cara hurriedly picked up the phone to call Chris without a second thought.

Kathryn was aware of Chris' schedule for the day and didn't want to bother him at all. She snatched the phone from Cara's grasp and ended the call.

She remembered that Tally had to head out for work today and said, "Don't disturb him. I'll ask a friend to take me there."

"I-I think we should still inform Mr. Chris!" Cara was still worried. She thought of the maids who had been dismissed from here.

The butler had mentioned that Chris was very fond of Kathryn. If she made any mistakes, it might not be as simple as leaving Albert Manor. She might even be kicked out of Harborlean.

"I'll talk to him!" Kathryn said. She was worried that Cara would exaggerate t

    Tally's words reassured Kathryn. Kathryn felt happy after the talk on the phone with Tally. Cara immediately made some chicken soup for Katheryn because she was sick.She ate the spaghetti that Chris had prepared for her. But she vomited it all up, so her stomach was now empty.Cara served her a bowl of chicken soup. "Madam, have some chicken soup. It might make you feel better.""Thank you." Kathryn looked at the fragrant chicken soup. It had a pleasant aroma, and she didn't smell anything strange.Her taste buds were instantly enticed. Her stomach felt a little better after she drank a bowl of creamy chicken soup.Tally arrived and found Kathryn with an injured foot and an ashen face. "Are you okay? It hasn't been that long since we last met, and you've already taken such poor care of yourself?"She always thought that Kathryn was as healthy as a horse. She couldn't help but wonder how she had gotten so frail during this period."I had a fever last night. Maybe the vomiting

    Kathryn and Tally sat on the cold metal chairs in the hospital corridor two hours later. Their faces were pale and lifeless.The latter held the urine test report, while the former held the ultrasound report. They looked at each other. Both were breathing rapidly and at a loss."We're screwed. I'm about to be broke real soon," Tally said lifelessly after a while.She couldn't help but wonder why she ended up with someone like this as her best friend. The situation felt like a calamity, and doubt crept in—she wasn't sure they could get through it together.Kathryn inquired, "W-What should I do?"She was pregnant with Chris' child. Kathryn's heart sank as all her efforts were utterly ruined. Tally's mind went blank when she heard Kathryn's question.She felt as if everything they had done in the past had been wrong. Tally would never choose to deceive Chris if they could go back in time. Their current situation was far worse than if they had just confessed from the start! And t

    "What do I do now?" Kathryn inquired.Tally said, "Now you go home and pretend as if nothing happened, and I'll take care of everything at the hospital!"She ran into several acquaintances when she accompanied Kathryn to the hospital earlier. She had to ensure everything was well taken care of at the hospital first. This matter couldn't be brought to light under any circumstances! Tally quickly gathered her thoughts.She had lost a lot of her brain cells for the sake of her family, but she knew she had to deceive everyone with Kathryn!Kathryn nodded. "Okay. You go ahead." Her mind was also in a state of confusion then, and she was at a loss."You wait here. I'll go find someone to write you a prescription for stomach issues," Tally said.She got up and was about to go to the Gastroenterology Department when Kathryn stopped her. "Wait!""What's wrong?""Do I have to have this baby?"Tally instantly froze. She turned around and looked at Kathryn. Tally realized that Kathryn h

    Despite Kathryn and Tally's extreme caution, they ended up in a dead-end."Mr. Albert," Kathryn answered the phone with trembling hands."Are you still at the hospital?""Mhm," Kathryn replied. It was already 11 am. Chris should be done with his work by now."I'll be right there to pick you up," Chris said.When Kathryn heard that Chris was coming to get her, her instinct was to refuse, but Tally intervened. She pressed her hand down and shook her head to warn against raising Chris' suspicions."Okay!" she said shakily under Tally's watchful eyes.Kathryn looked at Tally with a pale face and asked why she didn't let her refuse his offer after she hung up the phone."You just have gastroenteritis. Why should you be afraid of Mr. Albert coming to pick you up?" Tally inquired."I—""Remember, you're living together now." Hence, it was completely normal for him to come and pick up Kathryn. It would be weirder if she panicked and refused.Kathryn felt she couldn't hold on any lon

    The thought crossed Tally's mind if this was God's punishment for deceiving Chris. Though, they'd never wished for this outcome.Tally hurriedly pulled out her phone to call Kathryn. Then she remembered Kathryn was in Chris' car, so she dropped that idea.She wanted to text Kathryn, but she was afraid to because of the previous incident in the office.She wondered what to do. Tally grew anxious, as if she had ants in her pants. She could only pray that Chris wouldn't look at the report.Meanwhile, Kathryn sat stiffly beside Chris in the car."Are you feeling any better?" he asked Kathryn while handling the files on his laptop."Yeah. Much better!"Chris glanced at her from the corner of his eye. "Did the doctor not prescribe any medicine?"She had nothing in her hands. It was obvious that no medication had been prescribed. Kathryn's heart skipped a beat. She realized with dismay that the doctor had mentioned the fetus' excellent health. Hence, no medication was needed. Tall

    The Albert family appeared to be in complete disarray then. Chris didn't even bother to check on Franco, who was still in the hospital.He knew exactly what Krista had up her sleeve. Yet, Krista might not know everything on his end.For instance, Claude was the owner of the Clusia restaurant on the surface. But he also operated as Chris' private investigator in secret. He had been fully aware of Krista's covert actions over the years.He looked at Kathryn's nervous expression and said to Claude, "Go back to what you were doing.""Alright." Claude nodded and left.Chris placed a piece of chicken on Kathryn's plate and said, "The food here tastes good. Try some."She nodded but didn't touch the food. She was apprehensive about eating. She still remembered how she felt after having that plate of spaghetti in the morning."What if I felt nauseous during the meal? Wouldn't that give everything away?" Kathryn's heart raced at that thought.He frowned when he noticed she wasn't eating

    The car pulled up at Rexton Manor. Chris grabbed her wrist before she got off and said solemnly, "So you have to behave, okay?"Kathryn turned around and met his piercing gaze. She suppressed the fear in her heart and nodded. In any case, she couldn't afford to lose her house.Feeling content, he let go of her.She limped away as soon as she was released. Despite her injury, she walked very quickly.Chris' lips curled into a smile as he watched her retreating figure. He wondered how she had survived this long with such a timid personality.Kathryn had just arrived at the elevator when she received a call from Tally. She answered, "Tally.""Are you away from Mr. Albert right now?" Tally asked cautiously.No one knew how she got through this period. She wanted to call Kathryn, but she was afraid that Kathryn might still be with Chris. She thought about texting her but was worried that Chris might see it. Tally considered the time. She speculated they would likely be done by now

    Tally felt as if Kathryn's carelessness had rubbed off on her spending so much time together. She had prepared the report and thought she could temporarily deceive Chris. But the tampered report was still in her possession. Meanwhile, the report that should have been kept away from Chris was already in front of him. She hoped that Chris would be as careless as Kathryn. This way, he wouldn't notice the report until they retrieved it."I'll go to the company right away!" Kathryn said through gritted teeth."No! Don't!" Tally jumped to her feet when she heard that. She was afraid that Chris might become suspicious if he saw her at the company."Will you really be able to get the car keys?" If Kathryn went, she could tell Chris that she left something in the car, but what reason could Tally use? The latter also thought about that. "Then you should come over here right away. I'll go look into the situation."The girls came to an agreement. Kathryn hung up the phone and made her way

    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.
