All Chapters of Bright Future With Him: Chapter 601 - Chapter 610

Chris didn't expect Kathryn to be so direct. He was surprised. Yet, he instantly remembered that Kathryn had always been a straightforward person. Chris took Kathryn into his arms and had her sit on his lap. "You don't have to get along with her if you can't."Kathryn, who had been pouting, froze and looked at Chris in disbelief. "I don't have to?"She thought he must be joking, considering that Martha was his mother."Is there any problem?""There is. She'll dislike me even more if I don't get along with her.""You don't need her to like you."Chris wasn't concerned about what worried Kathryn. He didn't see it as a problem. However, Kathryn was hesitant. "I-I don't need her to like me?"Kathryn remembered how Jessica had tried to get along with Karen while sharing a home with Matthew and Karen back then. Jessica was determined not to put Matthew in an awkward position. However, in the end, Karen still didn't like her.Even though Kathryn had never personally experienced

Wendy was taken by surprise by Jessica's question. Nonetheless, she swiftly regained her composure and replied, "I didn't.""Is it?""Jessica Michaels, what do you mean? Are you giving me the money or not?""You've seen the DNA test report as well. Do you think I'd still give you money?" Jessica replied with an unpleasant tone. She had already given Wendy a huge amount of money over the years.While Jessica had once lived with Wendy, she had been independent during that time. Even if Wendy had cared for her, Jessica was confident that she had repaid every debt she owed."If you had any shred of shame, you wouldn't have called me again." "A shred of shame? How am I shameless? You are such an ungrateful person. Forget about Kathryn, as I didn't really take care of her, but I couldn't believe you are repaying my effort of raising you like this.""Even if I were a domestic helper, I should have been able to earn at least 10,000 dollars yearly, shouldn't I?" Jessica's tone grew cold

Jessica and Matthew's divorce back then had been acrimonious. Karen had also expressed her views openly in front of Kelly.Kelly obviously hadn't taken her words seriously. She believed that Karen had spoken out of anger. She thought it was still possible for Jessica and Matthew to get back together.Jessica grew even more distressed the more she dwelled upon it. As Jessica left the corridor where she had taken her phone calls, she was immediately spotted by Eleanor Harper from the secretarial department. "You're here? Mr. Byron is about to meet the CEO of Stellar Solutions. Hurry up and bring all the necessary documents.""Of course," Jessica replied, swiftly switching into work mode.She hurried back to the office. Some of the documents were in Byron's office. After preparing the necessary paperwork, she went to inform Byron.She pushed the door open and found Byron standing before the floor-to-ceiling window. He had his back facing the door. He was exuding an air of tension

Byron was Jessica's boss. She didn't think that it was appropriate to trouble him constantly. Yet, the rain didn't seem to be stopping. Jessica steeled herself and got in the car with Kelly. "Thank you, Mr. Hunt."Byron simply responded with a noncommittal hum, devoid of any visible emotion.Just like before, Kelly nestled into Jessica's embrace. She didn't dare to move—not even the slightest—under the weight of Byron's imposing presence. Jessica noticed how nervous Kelly was.Jessica and Kelly both felt a wave of relief wash over them as they reached Cloudshade."Mr. Hunt, thank you so much," Jessica thanked Byron genuinely.Despite Byron's stern and seemingly unapproachable demeanor, Jessica had to admit that she might not have been able to pick up Kelly on time if it weren't for him.Byron merely responded with a nod."Goodbye, then, Mr. Hunt."Jessica cradled Kelly in her arms and hastily ran off, almost as if she were escaping. She didn't dare to invite him for tea.

However, Jessica had underestimated the power of ruthlessness.The Quintons now held her in absolute contempt. How could they even remember the love they once had for Kelly? "Oh, you realize now that most of Kelly's schoolmates live in our neighborhood? You're embarrassed about it now, then?"Jessica didn't know what to reply. She felt suffocated as she listened to him. Matthew continued before she could say anything. "I'll sue you, Jessica Michaels. Just wait for it."With that, he promptly hung up. Jessica was too stunned to speak. Her mind went blank. She couldn't believe that the Quintons were going to sue her.Her heart was in her throat. She hadn't anticipated that things would persist even after the divorce.…Kathryn had just finished her dinner. Chris had gone to the study to attend to some work. Upon reaching her room, Kathryn received a phone call from Jessica. Jessica was crying profusely. "Kathryn, I really don't know what to do anymore. I don't think Kelly c
