Bright Future With Him Chapter 99
Meanwhile, Krista was enraged when she returned to Albert Manor. She was intent on gathering some of her things there before heading to the hospital.Unfortunately for her, her mother, Savanna, was there as well.Upon her return, Savanna stood up from the couch. "Where have you been? I went to the hospital, but you weren't there!"Krista limped over and hurled her bag onto the couch. "Franco wants to see Chris. I went by the company."Her anger flared as she spoke.Now that the entire domestic group belonged to Chris, Krista didn't want to stop by the company if she could help it.Franco's loyal employees were still working within the company. So she dared not stay away for too long as well.Krista didn't expect Chris to be absent and that shameless person to be there when she arrived.A trace of frostiness graced Savanna's eyes as soon as Krista mentioned Chris' name."Is that Michaels woman taken care of yet? Don't you, for one second, forget your agreement with the Winchest

After picking up a few files, Chris asked Kathryn, "Can you walk on your own?""I'm fine." Kathryn nodded hurriedly.Shortly after, she left the office together with Chris.As the office assistants prepared to leave, they pretended to be busy when Chris walked past them.Then, they caught sight of Kathryn walking behind Chris subserviently.When they recalled Kathryn causing Krista's ankle sprain, they silently cursed her together.How they wished Chris could see through her simpering faꞔade. How they wished he could chance upon her true colors!Unbeknownst to them, Kathryn had received a bonus of 48 thousand dollars due to her true colors.The pair soon boarded the car.Chris' phone vibrated at that moment. When he took it out, he realized it was a call from Franco.The way he saved Franco's contact as his full name pointed to their strained relationship. Immediately, Chris declined the call.Yet, a new call came through once more. It seemed that Franco wasn't about to gi

After Chris sent Kathryn back to Rexton Manor, he left. He didn't say where he was going, and Kathryn didn't dare ask.Cara was still there. Usually, Chris spent his nights outside, so she didn't have to spend that much effort on cooking.But now, he had a wife who'd burn the kitchen down if she tried. That was why she had to cook three meals.Cara's meals were both delicious and nutritious. However, Kathryn was nauseous because of her pregnancy. She had no appetite at all.When Cara noticed Kathryn wasn't eating much, she asked, "What's wrong, Madam? Is the food not to your liking?""No, I just had some snacks this afternoon at the office, so I'm not hungry," Kathryn replied.Kathryn didn't dare reveal a single clue when she thought about Cara's sharp gaze!She and Tally hadn't really thought about coming up with excuses to cover up her nausea yet. However, Cara had already asked her about it! If anyone checked ...Kathryn got a headache just thinking about it."You can clock

Jessica heard the tension in Kathryn's voice. It only appeared whenever Kathryn dealt with Wendy and Maxwell.Finally, Jessica sighed. "Wendy is coming to Harborlean!""What?" Kathryn wondered if Wendy would come for her now, considering how she had tormented Jessica for so long."Kathryn, I know she has mistreated you this whole time, but you know how difficult someone like her can be!" Jessica felt lost dealing with a mother like Wendy. She grew up with Wendy but struggled more than Kathryn, who stayed with their grandmother.At least their grandmother was gentle. Despite her age and poverty, she cared about Kathryn.Jessica married, moved to Harborlean, and tried her best to appease Wendy. She did all of these to prevent Wendy from coming over to bother her. But because Jessica always appeased Wendy, her appetite only got bigger. Now, the moment she found out Kathryn had married into a rich family, she tried to get something out of it too.But Kathryn wasn't a pushover. Sh

Chris had no idea how long Kathryn had this fever. He tried feeding her medicine several times. The one time she actually swallowed it, she threw up later!After all that effort, the living room was a mess. When he consulted the doctor, he said it was best if Chris tried cooling her down without using the medicine.Chris' expression darkened as he watched the feverish Kathryn on the couch. He smacked his palm against his forehead because he almost regretted marrying her.She looked so energetic in the past. He never would have guessed she was this physically weak. Why was her health failing so much?"Should I take her to the hospital?""Usually, fevers don't require hospitalization if the patients can cool themselves down. Besides, IV fluids aren't very good for the body," the doctor advised.He was implying that Chris should try cooling Kathryn down first."Alright, got it!" Chris said frustratedly, then hung up. Silence ensued.Chris noticed her clothes got soiled by the feve

"Be a good girl, and sleep with me a bit longer," Chris coaxed in a low voice, but that gentleness only confused Kathryn even more.When Chris felt her shaking, he pinched her cheeks and finally let her go. "Get dressed," he said.He tried not to scare her, but Kathryn was already scared silly. She couldn't tell he was being gentle at all.She jumped out of bed and rushed out the door the moment she had her freedom.Meanwhile, Cara was clearing the mess in the living room and was shocked when she saw Kathryn rushing out.Kathryn didn't expect Cara to be here so early, so her face went completely red. She moved her lips and tried to say something.But she was so embarrassed she couldn't say a word. Kathryn ended up retreating into her own room. Finally, she was alone. But her heart was still pounding.She hastily got dressed, but then her phone buzzed. When she picked it up, she saw a text from Chris.It was very short and commanding. "Take a hot shower, then come out for breakf

Before Chris headed to the office, he instructed Kathryn to stay home and not go out. Kathryn obediently promised to follow his advice.But the moment he left ... the Albert family butler arrived. He looked at Kathryn and said, "Mr. Franco said that if I couldn't get Mr. Chris to come, you'd need to come with me!"The family's servants previously looked down on her, but they all feared Chris. They were well aware of how he treated her, so the butler showed her great respect. When Kathryn heard Chairman Franco Albert wanted her to come, she frowned.Cara noticed her look and hurriedly stepped forward. "I'm afraid that's not possible. Madam had a fever last night, and Mr. Chris even got me to prepare medicine before he left. He was very clear about her not going out."The butler looked at Kathryn when he heard this, looking conflicted. "Well ..." Clearly, Franco had given him no room to disobey him.Either he came back with Chris, or he came back with Kathryn. And he knew the kind

Kathryn thought she'd better listen to Chris next time. Otherwise, she'd lose the chance to get a bonus and get yelled at too."Is the bonus really not on the table?" Kathryn tried one last time before she hung up.Chris' lips twitched when he heard her cautious tone. Just how money-minded was this girl?She was clearly scared to death, but … Truly, money was the best cure for her fear.When he heard her meek tone, his coldness melted a little. "I'll pick you up in an hour." He didn't say yes, but he also didn't say no. Kathryn was so miserable. She felt like crying. When Chris didn't hear a reply, he huffed, "Do you not want me to pick you up?" There were tons of women in Harborlean who wished they could be in his passenger seat. And here she was, treating him like he was worth less than 60 thousand dollars."Alright. Please hurry," Kathryn said. After all, Franco disliked her. She was worried her heart couldn't take it if Chris took too long.When Kathryn told Chris to hu

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.
