Emily remembered that she'd had a bad feeling when Franco had called her last night, wanting to meet her.Franco had never interfered with her life. He wouldn't even call her. She was surprised that Franco would take the initiative to call her last night. She immediately recalled what Krista had said. She couldn't believe that Krista was still able to play tricks on them even though she had left the Albert family.Martha's face darkened as she noticed that Emily looked down. She grabbed Emily by her hand. "What happened? Could it be that what that woman said is true?"Emily felt suffocated as she nodded. Her eyes instantly filled up with tears. She grabbed Martha by her hand as well. She choked, "Mom, I don't wanna marry Simon. He's foolish. I don't want to marry him. I don't want to!"Emily used to think that Krista was just bluffing. She thought that Krista still wanted to argue when she had lost. She didn't expect that Krista truly meant what she said.Since Franco had decide
Travis could still feel how formidable Krista was, even though he wasn't listening to her voice anymore. Krista was such a crazy woman.Travis closed his eyes and dialed Chris' number.…Chris had left the study. His expression looked complicated. He noticed that Travis was calling and answered his call. "Hello.""How sure are you about it?" Travis cut straight to the point."What?" Chris asked. He didn't understand what he meant.Travis' voice sounded shaky as he asked again, "Do you think it is Krista?"Chris was aware of the tension and anxiousness in his tone, even over the phone. He raised his brows. "What happened?""Chris, please be honest with me. Is Kathryn Krista's daughter?" Travis asked anxiously.He didn't believe that Chris was in the dark. He believed that a person like Chris would have everything under his control. Even though he forbade them to investigate it, he would still find out for himself."What on earth happened?" Chris asked again."I have no idea
Kathryn turned over, trying to fall asleep again.Chris' eyes were filled with affection as he looked at how peaceful and secure she looked. He bent over and kissed her on the cheek.A dangerous glint flashed across his eyes.…Meanwhile, Benjamin arrived at the hospital hurriedly after receiving the news and saw Susan lying on the hospital bed. Her legs and face were wrapped in bandages.Susan sobbed as she saw him, "Benjamin."Her face was in excruciating pain as she called him.Benjamin approached her hurriedly. "How are you? Where are you hurt?"Susan was in so much pain that she burst into tears.The doctor said to Benjamin, "Ms. Winchester has a broken leg. There are also extensive abrasions on her face."Susan couldn't help but break down when she heard about the extensive abrasions on her face. Benjamin, however, was terrified. "What happened? How did she get injured like this?""We've received an emergency call about a car accident just now," the nurse explained.
Krista had literally gone insane after the Albert family had gotten a new mistress. Susan was sure that she was trying to ruin the Alberts. She remembered how Krista had gotten revenge on the Alberts, which made her even more certain of her theory.Harlet arrived at the hospital room.Harlet, who had always been carefree and unruly, also showed a look of distress when he saw how miserable Susan looked as she lay on the hospital bed."Susan, what happened? Are you seriously injured? Does it hurt?" He was concerned and distressed about Susan's situation as he bombarded her with questions.It had been difficult for Susan to suppress her emotions. She had really had a great fright. She couldn't help but burst into tears as Harlet showed concern for her.Tears kept falling down her cheeks, which made her wounds hurt even more."Harlet, it hurts so much. I'm in pain.""Don't cry. It'll strain your wounds." Harlet was very distressed. He kept reassuring her, but Susan cried even more i
It was just exactly as Travis had thought.Chris prevented the Winchesters from investigating this matter, but he wouldn't stop looking into the truth himself. He would never let anything slip out of his control. Plus, Kathryn was involved in this.Yet, he couldn't figure out why the results of both of the test reports were the same. Krista didn't seem to have any relationships with the Winchesters at all.After knowing that the test reports belonged to Krista and the Winchesters, respectively, the first thought that came to Tara's mind was either there had been a mistake or someone had fiddled with it. She also thought that perhaps something was wrong with the facilities.Tara's tone grew serious as Chris remained silent. "Do you want to investigate this?"She believed that it was more probable that someone had fiddled with the test reports. She wondered who would have had the nerve to do something like that under Chris' nose.Coldness flashed across Chris' eyes. He took anoth
Kathryn was no longer afraid of Chris like she was before. She realized he was really nasty as she remembered how he had treated her.She was resentful of his behavior as he obviously knew everything. She was really frightened back then.Chris immediately retorted when he heard how furious she sounded. "I can't."He wouldn't allow her to forbid him from teasing her anymore. Chris eventually brought Kathryn back to the bedroom. He gently laid her down on the bed. He couldn't help but bend down to kiss her forehead.Kathryn was so small and soft. Chris just couldn't get enough of her."Stop it," Kathryn said. She was pushing against his chest with her hand, worrying that he was trying to do something to her.Chris grabbed her restless hand and chuckled, "What are you afraid of? I won't eat you.""You've eaten me before," Kathryn mumbled resentfully.Chris smiled wolfishly as she mentioned the past. He remembered many things that happened back then. He used to want to tease her
Krista took the booties and mittens Savanna had made for Kathryn's child and examined them when she arrived home. Her eyes brimmed with tenderness.Savanna, wearing her reading glasses, engaged in an activity she had never quite settled into over the years. Despite her past avoidance, she now held a knitting kit in her hands.In that moment, Savanna felt an unprecedented sense of tranquility and stability."This is so tiny. Will the baby fit into it?" Krista asked."How big do you want it? He's still a baby."Krista was clueless. After bringing Kathryn into the world, Krista missed the chance to take a good look at her before she was immediately sent away.Even after giving birth to Phineas, she seldom spent time with him. Absorbed in her pursuit of power and influence after marrying into the Alberts, she entrusted Phineas to the care of a nanny.It suddenly dawned on her. Whether her children had grown up under her care or not, they had never really received much love from her.
Everyone in Harborlean knew that Krista was the type of person willing to do anything to achieve her goals.Why did she believe Kathryn was her daughter, even though she hadn't conducted a DNA test yet?Besides, the Winchesters wouldn't allow Susan to marry Chris anymore. Was it necessary for Krista to defend Kathryn in such a malicious way?A sense of coldness emerged in Krista's smile. "I'm sorry. I really have no idea what you're talking about, Mr. Benjamin. What do you mean?""You …" Benjamin was hitting the roof. He instinctively clenched his fists.Krista stood up and walked toward Benjamin. She lifted her head and asked, "Did Susan tell you that I rammed her on purpose?""Didn't you?" Benjamin sneered.With a scoff, Krista's laughter added a layer of sarcasm to the already tense atmosphere. She continued in an indifferent tone, saying, "It's good that she's aware of it. Perhaps it would be more beneficial if she could view the accident as a valuable lesson.""You're fi
