Semua Bab Bright Future With Him: Bab 691 - Bab 700

Kathryn remained rooted to her spot, her eyes fixed on Lloyd as he answered the call. Her heart clenched as she gazed at his back, turned away from her.She had a great appetite earlier. Now, the food in her hands was tasteless. Lloyd answered the call. His voice was steady, void of any panic. "Mr. Albert, this is rare! What do I owe the pleasure?"Chris heard Lloyd's nonchalant voice from the other end of the line. His brows knitted tightly together. He went straight to the point. "Where are you, Mr. Robbins?""What do you want, Mr. Albert?""Where are you?"Chris' tone was heavier now. Lloyd frowned as he detected the threat in Chris' tone. "What is the meaning of this? Why does it sound like you're interrogating me now?""Lloyd, is Kathryn with you?" Chris instantly blew his fuse. He didn't bother to beat around the bush and went straight to the point. Lloyd's penchant for pettiness was common knowledge throughout Northvale.Most people wouldn't dwell on the end of

Why wasn't Chris willing to let her go?He had said so himself, never to see each other again. Why was he trying to take her baby from her?Or did he think bringing a baby into his new marriage was something to be proud of?Kathryn felt more unsettled the more she thought about it.She looked at Lloyd, eyes filled with tears. "What did you say?""I told him you are not with me, of course. But, you know how he is. He will eventually find this place."Lloyd didn't say that to scare Kathryn.Since Chris suspected Kathryn of being with Lloyd, finding out his whereabouts was a piece of cake.As soon as he learned that Lloyd was in Brookside Town, he would make his way there. The idea of losing her baby once Chris located her sent shivers down Kathryn's spine.In this world, she had no one else to rely on. Chris, on the other hand, had a large family. It puzzled her why he was still determined to take her child away.Her heart ached with torment as she contemplated the situation.

The efforts to locate Kathryn were intensifying, primarily due to Lloyd being considered the primary lead.Everyone assumed Kathryn and Lloyd were together. But no one knew their exact location.Consequently, those searching for Kathryn shifted their focus to investigating Lloyd's financial activities instead of monitoring Kathryn's bank card.Tally was on the phone with Victor as he made his way to the Albert Group. "Please don't tell Mr. Albert that I've been giving Kathryn money."Tally had a moment of realization that her impulsive decision might have serious consequences.Chris must have been monitoring Kathryn's bank card this whole time. Chris would skin her alive if he knew Kathryn had been using her money, deterring him from finding her.Victor snorted. "You're finally scared now, huh?""Of course! I'm terrified!"She finally knew her father's suffering after taking over the Johnson Group.Thankfully, she had found Victor in time. Otherwise, her father's years of hard

The entire office fell into a heavy silence after that statement.The tension in the air was so thick that one could hear the sound of their own heartbeat. Even the faintest sound, like a falling pin, would have been audible.Victor was typically resilient in the face of such pressure, but the atmosphere created by Chris was suffocating.That might have been good news. Yet, Chris' face remained darker than charcoal.This silence stretched on for what felt like an eternity. Victor considered how to offer an explanation without dragging Tally into it when Chris struggled to utter, "Tally?"It was Tally again.Tally's help to Kathryn in Northvale was a huge obstruction to them. It caused layers of trouble.Now, Tally was helping Kathryn in her escape?At the moment, Chris had the urge to rip Tally into shreds with his bare hands.Victor noticed how he had gritted his teeth. Chris would probably not let go of the Johnson Group that easily.He quickly explained, "She didn't do i

What would she like to say?Emily was caught off guard by her question.She imagined Krista would still deny it under such interrogation. They would end up arguing.Yet, Emily never expected her to admit it so readily. Emily couldn't contain her frustration as she gazed at Krista's unapologetic smile and exclaimed, "You are shameless!""Shameless? I don't believe you're innocent either, especially when you, as a daughter, facilitated a relationship between your father and another woman."Bringing up the other woman had been a mistake. Emily was visibly trembling with anger now."What did you say to Aunty Marigold?"She recalled how that woman had stayed in the Albert Manor the past few days. No matter what she said, the woman was unwilling to leave.A hint of jealousy flickered in her eyes.Marigold had met Krista before she went to the Albert Manor.So, she was certain Krista had said something to Marigold.Krista could tell from how Emily boiled in rage that the woman di
