Chapter 41

Chris had a business meeting at night, so he sent Kathryn back to Rexton Manor.But Kathryn wanted to go back to the company apartment. She missed Tally!Tally had called her many times since she entered Albert Manor. Now that Kathryn was finally separated from Chris, she quickly called her back.Tally picked up almost immediately and nearly jumped in surprise. "Why haven't you picked up my calls? Where are you?" she asked."I'm on the ground floor of the company apartment. I was with Mr. Albert, so I didn't dare pick up!" Kathryn said fearfully.Clearly, she still had yet to recover from the argument at Albert Manor."Get up here now," Tally said. "Do you want to get dinner?" Kathryn asked."No need. I have no appetite!" Tally replied.When Kathryn heard that Tally couldn't stomach food, she knew something was wrong. She hastily rushed upstairs. Tally's roommates had active social lives, so neither of them was home that night.When Kathryn entered the house, she could see

But then Tally noticed her outfit!She was the heiress of a rich family. She only left to gain experience in the working world, so she could tell it was branded, limited-edition outfit at once."What's with your outfit? Where have you been?" Tally asked, confused."Albert Manor!""Mr. Albert took you to his parents?" Tally was shocked. Looks like the marriage was a performance for the Albert family, then.She knew a little about the family conflict, so she was even more worried for Kathryn now.Speaking of meeting the parents, Kathryn felt a little conflicted. Did that meeting really count? The way those people looked at her, it was like they were going to eat her up.Still, Kathryn nodded. "Mmhmm, I guess he did!""Why didn't you stay for dinner?""Dinner? They probably would have eaten me for dinner!" Kathryn huffed.When she thought about what Chris said to Franco, she felt the wedding wouldn't go smoothly. In fact, it'd be very troublesome.When Tally heard that, she kne

Chapter 43

Tally and Kathryn felt like they couldn't breathe! They felt like something had just exploded in their brains!The word "restoring" also weighed on them heavily. By the time Markus came out with a glass of water, they were still standing there. So, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong?""Huh?" Kathryn snapped out of her daydreaming. Her breathing got even heavier. Oh, no! She was doomed!"Come on, help me confirm if this is the deleted footage!" Markus said.Does she even need to confirm it? Obviously, that was the footage.That was the only bit of footage they destroyed. Wouldn't he have found out by now if this was the wrong one?Tally hastily elbowed Kathryn, who took a deep breath and said, "Coming! Let me go to the bathroom first!"Markus nodded, then went into his office.When it was just Tally and Kathryn, they looked at each other. In the darkness, they could see that they were as pale as a ghost.Kathryn turned and was about to run off when Tally grabbed her and aske

Chapter 44

Brian and Black were gone!Only Kathryn and Markus were left in the office now, and Markus looked at Kathryn with a sharp gaze.Kathryn's back was covered in cold sweat. She didn't even dare to look at Markus and stammered, "Um, I'll head back now since there's nothing else to do?""You stayed in Mr. Albert's room for two hours?" Markus asked sharply.Kathryn's heart skipped a beat! It was true that no one went in during that time … but Kathryn didn't come out, either. Markus had asked a simple question, but Kathryn was very nervous because of it.Feeling his pointed gaze, Kathryn became extremely guilty. She started stammering, "Well, b-b-because Mr. Albert threw up several times that night. I had to stay there and clean the whole time."There was silence in the air. Kathryn's legs were getting numb. She was scared that Markus would keep questioning her. She really couldn't take it anymore!Markus kept staring at her pointedly. After a while, just as she was about to turn aro

Just as the two wanted to continue talking, Kathryn's phone rang. When she took it out, she noticed it was Chris calling.Her breathing sped up, and she looked at Tally nervously before picking up. "Mr. Albert!" In the blink of an eye, her tone turned respectful. Tally silently prayed that Kathryn's acting skills were good enough. Otherwise, both of them would lose their jobs.On the other end, Chris asked solemnly, "Where are you?""The company.""Wait there!" He didn't even ask what she was doing at the company. After those two simple words, he hung up right away.Tally walked behind Kathryn. "Was that Mr. Albert?""Mmhmm." Kathryn nodded. After what just happened, she didn't know how to face Chris. Should she come clean? Or should she keep lying?The more she thought about it, the more troubled Kathryn's mind got!But Tally was calmer, so she advised Kathryn, "No matter what Markus said to Mr. Albert, you need to hang in there!""What do you think he told him?""Didn't y

Chapter 46

Tally didn't expect Chris to personally pick Kathryn up. She couldn't tell if that was a good thing or a bad thing for Kathryn…When Kathryn saw Chris walking toward her, she was still quite nervous! So she lowered her head and said respectfully, "Mr. Albert.""What are you doing here?" Chris said.The moment she got close, Kathryn could smell the strong scent of alcohol. What was she doing? She came to see if Markus had restored the footage.But before she could speak, Markus came out of the company. When he saw Chris, he walked up and asked, "Did you see Mr. Cardy tonight?" Chris nodded. "Mmhmm."Markus looked at Kathryn knowingly. Then, he told Chris, "Brian and Black Dickens just left. Would you like to head up there and look at the footage?" Kathryn gasped when she heard him inviting Chris to see the footage. Her face paled a little! What did she say to Markus again? That Chris threw up several times during the two hours? That was her excuse. But if Chris looked at

Chapter 47

Back at Rexton Manor, the driver immediately drove off after Chris and Kathryn got out of the car. Kathryn wanted the driver to drive her back to the company apartment. However, when she saw Chris's cold figure, she didn't dare say anything. The only thing she could do was follow him.When they got home, Chris looked at Kathryn and asked, "When are you moving your things here?"Kathryn's heart almost stopped. "Am I really staying here?" She felt a bit conflicted.She really didn't want to. She always got so nervous when she was with Chris.She'd probably crack under pressure if they spent too much time together. It would make her tell him everything about that night. A hint of coldness flashed in Chris's eyes, so Kathryn hastily nodded and said, "Tomorrow. I'll do it tomorrow."Chris didn't say anything else. Instead, he took off his coat and dumped it on the couch with his phone. Then, he walked into the master bedroom.Kathryn stood at the entrance and patted her chest. She

The loud noise made Chris frown. He looked in the bathroom's direction!In the bathroom, Kathryn's heart was beating nonstop when Chris asked, "What's going on?" She froze when she heard that! She closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and said, "Mr. Albert, I don't have a towel!"There was silence. Kathryn wished she could bite her tongue off right then. If Chris didn't know she was this careless, he'd probably think she was trying to seduce him again. But right now, he was mostly bothered by her carelessness. He got up and got new towels from the closet. He walked to the bathroom before saying, "Open the door."Kathryn opened the door slightly. When she didn't see anyone, she stuck out a fair, slender hand. "Thank you."Chris knew Kathryn was tall and slender, but he didn't expect her arm to look muscled. Besides that, despite coming from the countryside, her skin was still very fair…Kathryn was freezing. She quickly wiped herself dry and got dressed. But Chris only gave her

Chapter 49

Kathryn's heart almost stopped! She could feel Chris's breathing get erratic, which scared her even more. "Mr. Albert, no!With a burst of energy, she broke free of Chris's powerful hold and backed away.Chris was still drunk, but the action sobered him up completely. There was no more warmth in his eyes, only coldness!When Kathryn saw his cold look, her chest tightened. "Mr. Albert," she called out timidly.That sobered him up a little more, and he said, "Go to bed."Go to bed? Kathryn panicked even more when she heard the word "bed." So, she asked shakily, "Which bed?"She was clearly spooked, and that made Chris smile mysteriously. "Where do you want to sleep?""Nowhere. I want to go back to the company apartment," Kathryn said hastily.Chris's smile froze. Kathryn's worked with him for a long time, but she'd always been scared of him since she messed up her work a lot. Still, he didn't realize she was this scared of him. So, he said, "Sleep in the room you went to last

Chapter 50

"You can still find one even if it's hard!" Kathryn's tone got even colder. The way she saw it, jobs weren't that hard to find. It's just that Maxwell was being too picky, like Tally said.He was still an intern but already desired a salary of two thousand dollars. What company would pay an intern that much? Aren't interns supposed to work their way up?Maxwell got a little annoyed when he heard Kathryn's reply. "I'm looking, aren't I? Why do you all keep nagging me?""Who's nagging you? You're the one asking for money!" Kathryn hated it when he said she was nagging him! Why was he still asking his family for money if he was so capable? Everyone needed to work hard once they were an adult. They didn't come from a rich family, but getting an education was already half the battle done.The fact that Maxwell didn't understand this meant his education was for nothing!When Maxwell realized Kathryn was standing her ground, he became timid again. "Kathryn, I really am looking for a jo
