He only came back to the office at 4:00 pm.Chris' lips curled into a smile when he saw the scarf in Kathryn's hand. He went to her and said, "It's looking great. You're making progress."Previously, her hands were clumsy with the knitting needle. Now, she was a whiz at it.Kathryn responded, "In the beginning, my fingertips used to get pricked, so I couldn't knit quickly enough.""What about now?""It's okay now."When she first started knitting, her hands had struggled with the pain, and even a gentle touch had hurt her fingertips. But that was no longer the case.Chris was all smiles as he scooped her into his lap in one swift move. Kathryn was so startled that she accidentally let go of the scarf in her hand.Chris didn't seem bothered about getting pricked.At this moment, Kathryn recalled her conversation with Tally over the p

Chris went to the lounge after instructing Tara. Kathryn was still sound asleep.Pregnancy had left her feeling lethargic, and her peaceful slumber was enviable to anyone who saw it.Noticing that Kathryn had kicked her blanket away, Chris went over and covered her back up.His actions stirred Kathryn awake, and she opened her eyes in a drowsy manner, murmuring, "Hmm, are you done with your meeting?"Her voice was sleepy and hoarse.Chris replied, "Yeah. Are you still tired?""Yeah, I'm tired from dreaming!" she replied, sounding uneasy. Kathryn had a fear of having dreams while asleep. It left her feeling even more exhausted afterward, making it more tiring than not sleeping at all.Seeing her discomfort, Chris couldn't help but smile. "Do you want to continue sleeping?""What time is it now?""It's after six now."Kathryn had slept for more than two hours and felt like she had been in a deep slumber. She struggled to get up from the bed. "Let's head back then.""Hold on.

There was no way something so insignificant could cause such a commotion!If what she suspected was true, the consequences would be unimaginable."She can't handle her liquor, can she?" Chris questioned."S-She was already sleeping when I left the room."She had intended to bring Jessica some tea to help with her hangover, but she didn't return when she heard that Matthew was coming.Kathryn's heart raced at the thought, and her face turned pale. Even though she wasn't known for her quick-wittedness, she understood what was looming ahead."How did things turn out this way? I even went to check on her!" Kathryn choked as she spoke.She was on the brink of losing her mind over this.Chris frowned. "I'm sure you couldn't have gone in even if you went to check on her."If the person had planned for it, there was no way he would have let Kathryn in.

Thank you so much," Jessica continued to express her gratitude.

Jessica's heart ached at how frightened her daughter was. She held Kelly's face. "Don't be scared. No matter what happens, Mom is here."Jessica demonstrated exceptional acceptance, fully embracing the fact that she had no knowledge of who Kelly's father was. While others might have been quick to criticize the circumstances surrounding the child's parentage, Jessica chose not to do so. If word had spread within the community about Kelly's biological father, she would simply relocate with Kelly.Jessica quickly became resolute in her decision. Regardless of the circumstances, she was determined to always protect her daughter."Yeah, I will always have Mom." Kelly nodded vigorously.Kelly appeared so well-behaved.It was the weekend tomorrow.

Jessica was taken aback by how serious Kathryn had become. "What's the matter?"After the recent events, she couldn't help but feel a sense of dread when she saw Kathryn's stern expression.

"Do you remember about staying in the wedding venue when you got married six years ago?""Yes, I remember!""Matthew had never set foot in that hotel before the wedding.""W-What do you mean?"Her face lost color instantly. Matthew had never been to the hotel, which meant he was not the man who had been in her room the night before the wedding.Kathryn noticed Jessica's face slowly paling. "You also know how passive Matthew was when you got married, so …"Jessica vividly remembered how passive he had been.Their parents had arranged their marriage, and Karen knew it was highly unlikely for Matthew to marry, given his conditions.So, the Quintons reluctantly accepted the idea of an

The poached chicken tasted amazing.Jessica made two more side dishes to go with the poached chicken. They were scrumptious. Kelly was silently eating her food. Jessica gave some of her chicken to Kelly, but the little girl thoughtfully put the chicken back onto Jessica's plate. She said, "It's too much, Mom and Aunt Kathryn. I can't finish it."Was she that full? They highly doubted it. A sorrowful feeling welled up in Kathryn's heart as she observed Kelly. Jessica's heart felt the same grief, too. "Silly girl, you should eat this. Your body needs the nutrients to grow."She placed the chicken back onto Kelly's plate as she spoke. Yet, Kelly was stubborn.
