Chapter 91

Everyone at Albert Group knew Chris disliked women who advanced their careers unethically. Nobody dared to make any risky moves in the years he took over the company because of that. Yet, that seemingly meek Kathryn had somehow found a loophole!"Who knows? She's glued to Mr. Albert every day and frequently visits Rexton Manor. That's where he currently resides!""First come, first served?""You should hold off on discussing that for now. People in this department have been fired in the past because of such discussions!"One of the junior secretaries seemed to recall something. However, she didn't dare to continue the conversation.The other secretary didn't dare to continue the conversation after being reminded.Elise got so angry that she slammed the files she was holding on the office desk when she heard that. Elise and Janet were the only veterans in the company then. The new secretaries enjoyed gossiping. But Markus had hired them from elsewhere, so their abilities were

The ramifications would be truly disastrous!Chris was pleased with her reaction. He gently caressed her head when he passed by her. "Good girl."Kathryn was rendered speechless. "Why do I feel like he's petting his own pet?" she thought.She was alone in his office after he left, and she hurriedly took out her phone and called Tally.The latter had returned to her workstation. Even though she had handled everything properly, she was still fearful and on edge.She jumped like a startled rabbit when she received Kathryn's call and instinctively wanted to throw away her phone. However, she stopped herself from doing so when she saw the caller ID.Tally answered the call nervously. "Kathryn?"Kathryn's voice was also soft. "What's wrong with you? How could you do something like this?"Her best friend's actions had rendered her speechless!The feeling was mutual, but Tally had to admit that it wasn't Kathryn's fault this time. Fortunately, Kathryn hadn't shown the prescription to

Markus nodded. "Don't you think everything is a little too coincidental?"Coincidental? There were no coincidences in Chris' world.If it was done by the same person, that person must be from within the company."This means Krista's underlings are still infiltrating his company!" His face darkened at that thought."It seems like it's time for another reshuffle!" Chris sneered.There were plenty of Krista's underlings within the company when he first took over Albert Group a few years ago. It took him half a year to get rid of them all. He knew that Krista wouldn't just sit still because of that."I'll investigate as soon as possible!" Markus exclaimed.Chris grunted in acknowledgment. Then he added coldly, "Make it noticeable!"Anyone associated with Krista didn't deserve to be treated with respect. That woman needed to understand that some things were not meant for her. She shouldn't even harbor such delusions about them.Markus nodded. "Got it!"Meanwhile, Kathryn was in Ch

Krista was taken aback. She hadn't expected Kathryn to be so quick-witted and articulate. She had a sharp comeback to whatever she said.Elise came in with a cup of coffee. "Mrs. Albert, here's your coffee.""Get lost!" Krista couldn't do anything to Kathryn, so she vented her anger at Elise.Elise tensed up, and her expression hardened after being yelled at. She suppressed her anger, turned around, and left the office without saying anything.Kathryn looked at the enraged Krista. "Why vent your anger on innocent people?"From the bottom of her heart, she looked down on Krista.For some reason, she felt a sense of familiarity with the woman in front of her. However, she couldn't remember why.After all, Krista was Mrs. Albert. She was Franco's wife, and given their ages, they'd never met before.Krista picked up the coffee cup in front of her, took a sip, and cut to the chase. "Leave him, and you can name your terms!"Kathryn arched her brow. "I don't want anything to do with

Kathryn nodded her head pitifully. She was genuinely aggrieved. Being involved with Chris had already been her worst mistake. To make matters worse, his stepmother was bullying her now. There was no way she would allow that to happen. Her life would be miserable if she allowed that woman to bully her. Chris smiled as he pulled her onto his lap. "You've made her livid, yet you still feel aggrieved?"He had heard everything when he walked in just now. Krista was so angry that she broke her high heels in the lobby downstairs. She was clearly walking with too much force because she was angry.Kathryn huffed, "Who gave her permission to say such things about me!"Chris was amused by her "miss goody two-shoes" look, which said, "It's not me. It's her!"He observed the usually timid girl and was surprised that she had managed to make Krista so angry. He believed that this was the second time she had done so.Chris felt he had made the right choice at that moment. This girl might look

Kathryn's face reddened even further as she realized she was still sitting on Chris' lap.Chris had no idea how the former had settled matters with Krista. But he was pleased that Kathryn had managed to provoke his stepmother's rage. Just as he picked up his phone, Kathryn received a notification."One hundred thousand dollars—" Her heart skipped a beat as she read its contents. "Chris!" she called out, stunned.They had talked about this before. In addition to her two-thousand-dollar salary, she received a fifty-thousand-dollar monthly allowance. Along with the leaves she had taken this month, she should not receive more than 52 thousand dollars.But now, the numbers on her screen demanded her attention.Ten thousand dollars … It felt like the sky had simply parted for an influx of undeserved cash to drop into her lap.Her dazed expression earned a chuckle from Chris. "Your performance has been exceptional. Consider the rest a bonus.""Thank you, Mr. Albert!" Kathryn's smil

Abruptly, her phone vibrated on the couch, prompting Kathryn to pick it up hurriedly. As she did so, she did not forget to peer in Chris' direction.It wasn't until she was certain she hadn't disrupted his work that Kathryn let out a sigh of relief.Chris hated disruptions, especially when he was editing his documents.Kathryn picked up her phone and headed to the balcony outside the lounge. Only then did she glance at the caller ID.It was Wendy.Kathryn's expression darkened. She answered the call anyway. "Hi," she began coolly."Hi, Kathryn. I-It's me!" Wendy's voice came through her phone, filled with feigned gentleness. She was probably feeling rather awkward herself, for her voice sounded unnatural.Kathryn hummed coldly.Her indifference enraged Wendy, but the latter attempted to suppress her temper. "So, when are you bringing Chris back home?" she asked.A flash of iciness crossed Kathryn's face. "Why do I have to bring him back home?" she asked unceremoniously."Kath

Kathryn wiped the tears away from her face clumsily. She turned, only to meet Chris' fathomless gaze."Mr-Mr. Albert." She shivered involuntarily.The contrast between the two of them was stark.Chris' gaze darkened as he strode in her direction. Instinct had her stepping back at once.Despite her retreat, Chris managed to grab her chin, his other arm circling her slender wrist. "Who were you calling just now?" he asked."Someone as shitty as Krista," Kathryn told him with a snort.Chris raised a brow. "Your stepmother?""No!" Kathryn's rage flared even more.To some degree, she could understand Krista's horridness. After all, evil stepmothers were prevalent—they always have been."Do the two of you not get along?" Chris pressed on."My grandmother was the one who raised me," Kathryn replied.Chris nodded.The investigation's information matched what she had told him now. She was an orphan who was completely dependent on her grandmother for her survival.Even so, he had ne

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
