บททั้งหมดของ Bright Future With Him: บทที่ 111 - บทที่ 120

Either way, Kathryn was taking the money.Her money-minded glee must have been contagious because Chris' anger disappeared when he looked at her.Meanwhile, at the hospital, Mia and Savanna stayed where they were for a long time. The elevator doors opened countless times, but Chris never reappeared.Savanna noticed that Mia's face was falling, so she hastily comforted her. "See? Krista told you. That woman has unbelievable tricks, yet you wasted so much time overseas."Mia was so angry. She was shaking, and her face was pale. She was not gentle anymore like she was with Chris. Instead, she was cold and prideful.When Savanna noticed how mad Mia was, she continued, "Their wedding is just around the corner!""Wedding?" That word only hurt Mia even more.Still, she laughed coldly and said, "You used to look down on me because I was a lowly dancer. But now, you have to call a country girl Mrs. Albert. This probably hurts you more than it hurts me, right?""Why, you …" Savanna's fac

Kathryn kept asking herself that question in her head. If Chris really wanted the baby, how was she supposed to explain what happened at Northvale? The more she thought about it, the more her head throbbed. Suddenly, she heard knocking sounds, followed by Cara's voice. "Are you sleeping, Madam?"Kathryn hastily got up and opened the door. "What is it, Ms. Adams?" she asked."Mr. Chris sent over some wedding dresses. You may need to try them on."Kathryn poked her head out the door. Sure enough, several women in suits were in the living room, pushing two racks full of wedding dresses.Hadn't his first love just returned? Was the wedding still on? The confusing scene only made her headache worse.But she never had a say in Chris' decisions, so she could only nod and say, "Okay.""Mr. Chris said he's on his way back, so you'd have to choose it yourself," Cara said as they walked to the living room together."He's coming back?" Kathryn said, shocked. After knowing him for so lon

When Kathryn looked down on instinct, she noticed her belly sticking out a bit. She trembled in fear. "Um, maybe I ate a lot recently? I have a good appetite nowadays," she explained as calmly as possible.But immediately, Chris exposed her lies and said, "You haven't been eating a lot at all!" Not only that, her appetite had been particularly poor lately.Kathryn almost couldn't breathe when she heard that. Her entire body had gone stiff.Chris sounded casual, but everything he said was the cold, hard truth. Kathryn didn't know how to handle it.Chris' phone rang as she racked her brain to think of an explanation. When he picked it up, she could see "Mia" on the screen.At that moment, she felt the grip on her waist tighten. But the next thing she knew, Chris let go of her and gently placed her on the couch before heading for the balcony.She couldn't hear what Mia said, but Chris was frowning. After that, he said, "Alright, I'm coming."Then, he hung up and walked toward Kat

When Chris recalled how terrified she was of Lewis, he began to understand why Kathryn acted like a coward. Some people could have compromised anything to survive, and Kathryn was especially willing to do that. After her grandmother passed away, her mother refused to take care of her, so Mr. Huber took her in. But she was always worried about risking her next meal, so she was very careful.That risk seemed even bigger once she got involved with him, as her mortgage was likely substantial. Kathryn looked at Chris pitifully. "Um, can you spare Tally?"When she met Chris' serious gaze, she knew Marcus and the others had probably restored the footage and reported their findings to him.Kathryn closed her eyes and gritted her teeth. "It was that time of the month, so I asked Tally—"Clang! Chris slammed down his fork before Kathryn could finish and pinched her chin. "No, it wasn't," he said.Kathryn's mind went blank when she heard that. She was about to ask how he knew, but t

Even if Kathryn confessed now, she'd probably lose her house and savings. She couldn't have that!But Tally's next words shocked her. "Even if you plan to lie, you can't just say you're sick. Mr. Albert would get you the best doctors! How are you supposed to hide your pregnancy like this?"Kathryn's mind was blown. She hadn't thought of that. If Chris got her a doctor, wouldn't she be immediately exposed?Kathryn's breathing got heavier. "I mean, I don't think I could have found a better reason than that, could I?"She had been scared witless. It was a miracle she found a reason in the first place."Seriously?" Tally said. Now, she had no idea what to say."What do we do now?" Kathryn asked."Just confess what you did!" Tally had given up. She'd lost sleep and appetite trying to cover things up all the time. She was always scared. More importantly, Chris still hadn't let go of what happened at Northvale. They hadn't found out the truth yet, but the investigation would still le
