Krista shook her head with agony. "How would I get into a fight with her? I just …"

She recollected what she had done back then. She had gone to the pharmacy to buy Kathryn medicine and health supplements. She had carefully chosen them for her.

She was well aware of the problems a mother would face after giving birth since she had given birth to two children before herself. She knew how to avoid the troubles.

She didn't expect that things would turn out like this.

Krista recounted the entire situation to Savanna. Savanna could hardly breathe as she listened.

Tears eventually fell from Krista's eyes. "I am doing my best to care for her. I'd never harm her."

"I know, I know. The problem is that she has no idea about it. Besides, back then, we had …" Savanna immediately paused when she mentioned the past.

Krista had been looking troubled. Her face grew even paler when Savanna brought it up. She recalled what she had tried to do back then.

"You're right. Didn't I want to take her

    Krista sneered as she contemplated the Winchesters, believing they had overlooked the lesson she had imparted to Susan.She remembered that Travis had turned against the Winchesters back then as his relationship with the family had fallen apart. She couldn't believe that he was behaving differently now.Closing her eyes with a dangerous air, she remarked, "You're right. None of these men can be trusted at all."Despite briefly trusting Chris, Krista concluded, after Savanna's revelations, that she couldn't trust him either. She deemed trusting herself wiser, recognizing that marriages in affluent families often stemmed from strategic alliances.Savanna nodded. "For now, we need to address the situation with the Winchesters. Susan Winchester might cause Kathryn trouble.""I should have killed her right away last time," Krista sneered, her tone carrying a dangerous undertone.Savanna remained silent, her eyes flashing with an unprecedented determination. Temporarily setting aside K

    Benjamin was certain that Chris and Kathryn were a match made in heaven. How could they accuse him of talking nonsense when they were so mean themselves?He had intended to have a confrontation right in front of Kathryn. Yet, Chris and Kathryn were singing the same tune. He couldn't steer the conversation in the intended direction.Kathryn immediately left the basement with the children when she noticed what was going to happen."Stop right there!" Benjamin roared in fury as he witnessed Kathryn hastily escaping from the basement.Chris immediately shoved him to the ground when Kathryn entered the elevator. "Benjamin Winchester, that's enough. You've gone too far."Benjamin, taken aback, found himself on the floor.Now that Kathryn had left, his eyes grew fiercer as he locked onto Chris. He got up and fiercely swung a folder at Chris' head. Chris instantly caught it with his hand.Benjamin erupted in hysterical growls. "'Krista's daughter,' I see? Look at this. How is she Kris

    Benjamin couldn't believe Chris was already suspecting the entire Winchester family only with a DNA test report.Noticing that Benjamin looked exasperated, Chris patted his shoulder and said, "Come on, investigate it. I guess the culprit is really in a panic now since they had tampered with the test report without even figuring out whose specimen it is."Benjamin's breathing was becoming unstable. Chris had no intention of wasting more time on him and left with a meaningful remark, "There'll always be surprises beneath a glorious exterior."Chris headed toward the elevator immediately after. As he entered the elevator, he didn't forget to call the security guards to forbid Benjamin from entering.Benjamin had no intention of seeking Kathryn at the Albert Group again. He could hardly breathe after Chris' words. His mind had gone blank.He was reluctant to believe someone had tampered with the test report, but he suddenly recalled what happened when he brought Kathryn's specimen bac

    Krista walked toward Benjamin steadily. Her short, neat hair accentuated her unique and strong demeanor as an independent woman.Surveying the condition of Benjamin's car, she expressed regret, "This is indeed on me. Just tell me how much compensation you need and send me the bills when they're ready, Mr. Benjamin.""You …" Benjamin seethed at Krista's words. He was both astonished that she admitted fault and infuriated because it was clear she had done it deliberately.Before he could say anything, Krista added indifferently, "You don't have to apply for an insurance claim either. I could just compensate a new one for you."Benjamin was so angry that he could hardly get a word out. He believed that he would beat Krista up by now if she were a man, but unfortunately, she wasn't."You don't have to. The Winchesters can afford it.""Very impressive, Mr. Benjamin. I guess it's because the Winchesters could afford anything that you can act this recklessly and shamelessly, I see?"St

    Benjamin had no idea that Susan had arrived at the Albert Group before him. She was already at the office at the moment.Susan snickered when she saw Kathryn, who had gone upstairs ahead. "I see you're very worried about your status, Mrs. Albert. "You've just given birth, but you've brought your baby with you here. Do you really think that Chris would truly belong to you by keeping an eye on him like that?"Kathryn was speechless. Her face instantly darkened. She handed the baby to the nanny, Olivia Stephensons, who was behind her, and said to Kelly, "Kelly, bring your little brother inside with Ms. Stephensons, okay?""Okay." Kelly nodded obediently.Olivia quickly took the children inside, noticing something was wrong with the situation.Tara, who was only a short distance away from them, stood up instantly and walked toward Kathryn upon hearing Susan's remarks. "Excuse me, miss. What are you doing?"It was obvious that Tara didn't recognize Susan. Susan had claimed that she

    Chris frowned as Susan suddenly appeared before him. All of a sudden, he was exuding a cold air. Susan, undeterred, naturally took hold of Chris' arm and claimed, "Travis asked me to discuss something with you privately."Kathryn turned and saw Susan's deliberate behavior. Having been by Chris' side for an extended period, she was acutely aware of the level of familiarity Susan was attempting to project. She found Susan's shameless behavior infuriating, casting a cold glare in her direction.Chris was stunned by her actions and realized that Kathryn was infuriated. He immediately withdrew his hand from Susan's hold and said coldly, "I don't care what you want to say. I won't listen to it. Leave now."Unlike Susan's warm and friendly demeanor against him, he spoke with such a cold tone. Susan couldn't believe he would treat her with such rudeness, especially considering she was still the daughter of the Winchesters. The possibility of being with him seemed increasingly dis

    Susan seethed with anger at Tara's nonchalant and arrogant demeanor. With a disdainful sneer, she stomped her feet before making her exit, her mind already scheming on how to exact retribution.Meanwhile, Tara fumed as she watched Susan leave. Resentment lingered over the encounter with what she deemed a morning encounter with a psychopath. She silently wished for a trouble-free day ahead, finding the entire incident thoroughly vexing.…A satisfied smile adorned Krista's lips as she stood in the basement, observing Benjamin drive away with his damaged car. She promptly pulled out her phone and dialed Susan's number.Susan was currently in the elevator at the moment. She scoffed with disdain upon seeing Krista's incoming call. She didn't sound friendly like before when she answered the call. There was even a trace of sarcasm in her tone. "Hello, Madam Preston."She wasn't polite to Krista anymore. There was no doubt that she was aware that she was unable to benefit from Krist

    The arranged marriage between the Winchesters and the Alberts had always been dealt with by Krista back then. Chris had never met Susan in person at all.He was also baffled by Susan's sudden visit to the Albert Group today.Kathryn sneered. She was still reluctant to talk to him. Even though she knew there was nothing between Susan and Chris, she remembered how Susan held Chris by his arm just now.She was irritated by it.Chris cupped her face in his hands. "Are you really angry?"He was astonished that Kathryn dared to behave like that in front of him now. She would even become furious because of other women. Even though he felt wronged, he was surprisingly delighted by it. He planted a kiss on her lips. "Stop being angry, okay? There's nothing between me and her.""But she was so close to you. It's annoying," Kathryn mumbled.Chris laughed when he realized she was speaking frankly about her anger. He nodded. "I know. I'm angry about it as well. I didn't even know her. Ye

    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.
