Then, Emma looked at Benjamin with a gaze devoid of any warmth.

Benjamin's gaze darkened as well.

Susan was a little stifled by the tense atmosphere. "But Grandma, he—"

"I asked you to sit down. You shouldn't be the one who leaves this place."

"Who do you think should do that, then?" Benjamin asked coldly. He didn't even greet her "Grandma." After knowing the truth, although he knew that Emma was an elder, she was no longer worthy of his respect.

Emma couldn't help but heave in anger at the mockery in his tone. "You brat! Are you trying to piss me off?"

"Go ahead and be pissed. No matter what happens, you always cause trouble for everyone. You don't even treat your daughter-in-law well. It's not like you'll die from anger, anyway."

Susan, Emma, and even Harlet, who had just returned home, were speechless.

Upon hearing Benjamin's defiant words, Harlet couldn't believe his ears. "What are you saying, Benjamin?"

He shouldn't be talking to Emma like that. What was he doing?

    In just a moment, Emma became so furious that she grabbed her cup and threw it at Benjamin. "You bastard! Get the hell out of here!"Her aim was true, and the cup hit Benjamin's head. In an instant, a gash appeared on his forehead, and it bled profusely.Seeing this, Harlet hurried forward. "Benjamin!""Or do you want everyone to know your relationship with Susan?" Even so, Benjamin refused to back down. His words were even harsher than the last.When Emma heard his words, she became even angrier.Harlet and Susan looked at Emma and then at Benjamin with confusion.Susan asked, "Benjamin, what are you saying? How can my mother and Grandma be related?""Yeah. There's no way. If they aren't related, why would Grandma treat her adopted granddaughter so well while being unpleasant to her grandson?"Benjamin was silent."To the point where she would risk swapping her granddaughter's DNA samples?" Every question was just that pressing.Arthur shouted from the stairs, "That's enough

    But after Benjamin's recent change in behavior toward Susan, Harlet also had a terrible feeling.Arthur was already waiting in the study. His expression turned even darker when he saw Benjamin coming in with Harlet behind him. He asked coldly, "How far do you want to take this?"Right now, things were chaotic, as it were. During the day, Arthur kept calling Travis, but he never answered. He knew Travis would never forgive him, but he couldn't believe he would do such a thing and turn their family situation into a mess.Arthur felt uncomfortable about this, but there was nothing he could do about Travis. Now that Benjamin knew about this, he didn't want Harlet to know about it as well."Harlet, get out for now!" Arthur said sternly.Harlet was speechless. He felt an unpleasant premonition when he saw Arthur and Benjamin at odds like this. He felt as if this family was going to fall apart.But before he could turn around, Benjamin said, scoffing, "Why are you leaving? And why are y

    Benjamin stormed down the stairs. The blood stains on his forehead were gruesome to witness.Emma had been comforting Susan the entire time.Back then, when Benjamin saw Emma doing this, he believed she had a kind heart to cherish someone who wasn't her granddaughter. But now, he simply found her actions ridiculous.When Susan saw Benjamin's sinister expression, she became even more frightened and hid in Emma's arms. "Ben!""Never call me that ever again. You don't deserve to do so!"Upon hearing Benjamin's words, Emma became even more anxious. "You brat!""Also, you'd better scram if you don't want to die. I won't be so kind when I come home tomorrow," Benjamin spat. Then, he turned to leave.When Susan heard his cold and heartless words, she felt her body going cold. She shuddered and looked at Emma. "Grandma, Ben doesn't want me here anymore."She didn't know that tampering with those samples would have huge consequences. She just didn't want that woman to be found. She was

    Right now, things with the Winchesters were in chaos. However, things with Kathryn were no better. She didn't have time to deal with Krista, and Jessica's health was deteriorating. Waiting for a matching bone marrow was a very torturous process for her.Meanwhile, Tally, who was far away in Montiwood, was injured. "Ow! That hurt!" She, who had always been strong, was sitting on the ground, shivering in pain.Victor looked at her thigh, which was scratched by the stone. He took off his shirt and wrapped it around her thigh. His skillful movements allowed him to do this in one fell swoop.At this moment, Victor also gave some terrifying news. "Our phones have no signal." He had come here to visit the site for the tourism project, so he had split up from the group.Along the way, Victor and Tally were recording their geographical locations. As expected of Montiwood, the scenery here was breathtaking. It was so spectacular that Tally forgot how difficult it was to transverse these mo

    It was wolves.Tally couldn't believe that they had encountered wolves. There were even two of them."V-Victor!" Tally's heart skipped a beat. Her arms, which were wrapped around Victor's neck, tightened. She couldn't understand why there were wolves.Were the wolves attracted by the smell of the blood from her wound?Victor lowered his gaze and noticed that Tally was trembling with fear. Her face had gone pale as well. Yet, his tone still sounded calm in a situation like this. "Are you afraid?""C-Can I say I'm not?" Tally's voice quivered as she spoke words that went against her true feelings. Undoubtedly, she was terrified."Could you stand?" Victor asked. He sounded calmer than Tally, who trembled as she spoke.Tally was breathing intensely. "Y-Yes."She had no other choice at the moment."Slowly put your feet on the ground, then.""Alright." Tally was still trembling with fear. Yet, she tried her best to stay calm and gingerly placed her feet on the ground.She could fe

    Tally was still in a trance even though Victor had repeatedly assured her that the wolf was dead. She was no doubt scared witless by what had happened.She gently extricated herself from Victor's embrace. It was then she noticed that his arm was injured.The wolf must have attacked him when he pushed her away. Blood was continuously oozing out from his wound.If it weren't for him, Tally might have been attacked by the wolf instead.Tally's eyes welled up with tears. "You're bleeding."There were lots of blood.Noticing that Tally was sobbing intensely, Victor said, "It's not the time to cry. We have to leave here immediately. The smell of the blood might attract other wild animals. There might be more wolves around."We'll be in big trouble if there's a wolf pack."Tally's heart skipped a beat upon hearing the possibility of a wolf pack. The two wolves had almost taken their lives. There wouldn't be any hope for them to survive if they had to face a wolf pack."Let's go, t

    Both Tally and Victor had lost a lot of blood. Tally, after pushing herself to make a final phone call, eventually succumbed to the blood loss and passed out. When they regained their consciousness, they found themselves in Montiwood's hospital.When Tally opened her eyes, she found herself in a room filled with the scent of disinfectant. "V-Victor!" she exclaimed subconsciously, attempting to sit up. However, an excruciating pain shot through her leg as she moved.Markus, who had been by her side, heard her call Victor's name upon waking. His expression turned completely dark upon hearing that, and he grew even more infuriated seeing her face pale from the pain. "It's painful, isn't it? That's why you should be staying still."Tally's body stiffened at the sound of Markus' voice. She forced herself to endure the pain in her leg and slowly turned her head to look at Markus.She couldn't believe it was really him, and annoyance flooded her at his presence. "H-How did you …"

    Markus seethed with anger in his thoughts while Tally, enduring the pain from her wound, slowly approached the ward's doorway.The nurse immediately sensed the tense situation when she came in."Gosh, what are you doing, Ms. Johnson? You mustn't be moving right now. Please go back and lie down on the bed," the nurse urged Tally, preventing her from leaving. Looking at Markus, who exuded an icy demeanor, the nurse remarked, "What are you doing? As the patient's family, you should be aware of the condition of her wound. Why can't you talk to her nicely?""Nicely? Do you think that's possible?" Markus erupted instantly. Tally had never once listened to him. It was impossible for him to talk to her nicely.Tally shot him a fierce glare. "I can't talk to him nicely either. Where's Victor?""Are you still trying to find him? Do you want him to send you to hell? Tally Johnson, you're such an idiot!" Markus felt his sanity slipping away. He had never dealt with a woman so resistant to

    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.
