Alle Kapitel von Bright Future With Him: Kapitel 181 – Kapitel 190

"My hands aren't dirty. I just washed them," Kathryn replied.Chris gave Kathryn a cold stare.Kathryn was almost scared to death. "I'll do it right away."Kathryn felt unfairly treated but took the tissue promptly. She thought she understood Chris, but now, she was uncertain. His glare was baffling.Chris felt better as Kathryn complied. Nevertheless, his voice remained stern. "What are the company's rules for interactions?""Huh?" Kathryn was confused."Answer me," Chris' voice turned icy and threatening. It was only then did Kathryn realized the extent of his anger. She had assumed his fury was about his abstinence from alcohol.Taking a deep breath, Kathryn swallowed her anxiety. She answered in a soft voice, "No joking or casual chatting with clients. No physical contact with clients. No wheeling and dealing with clients.""And what were you just doing?"Kathryn recalled the recent events. She vividly remembered how Lloyd had grabbed her hand. Yet, she wasn't sure if it c

"Chris …" Mia looked at Chris aggrievedly. Tears welled up in her eyes. Kathryn's words seemed to have deeply wounded her. Amelia disliked Kathryn from the start. She believed Kathryn had taken everything away from Mia. When Amelia saw Mia tearing up, her anger raged. Amelia raised her hand, intending to slap Kathryn. "How dare you speak like that? You're just the other woman!"Chris grabbed her arm before she could slap Kathryn. Amelia felt the pain in her arm and spun around to face Chris. "Chris! You—"He released her arm forcefully. "Enough!""Chris, how could you do this? Mia has already apologized to you. How can you keep hurting her?"Chris' expression grew even darker. He ignored her. Chris pulled out his phone and dialed Markus' number. Markus answered the phone almost instantly. "Chris."Markus had always been close with Chris. It was already his off-hours as well."Terminate all our current collaborations with the Miller Group.""What happened?" Markus was sli

Even though Mia was furious, she wanted to maintain her composure in front of Chris. She took a deep breath and asked, "What do you want?"Mia tried to paint Kathryn as the one who was persistent with the issue, making it seem like she was the one responsible for the problem. Kathryn crossed her arms. "It's not about what I want, Ms. Davis. There's nothing wrong, even if I were to ask Amelia Miller for an apology."She couldn't believe Mia was still trying to pin the blame on her. Inwardly, she criticized Chris' taste in women."Why must he fall for a phony person like her?" Kathryn thought. Mia and Amelia were the ones who offended her, but they were acting like she was being unreasonable. Kathryn, however, wasn't someone who would let herself suffer losses easily.Mia had witnessed how provocative Kathryn could be at the hospital. She hadn't expected that Kathryn wouldn't hold herself back in front of Chris.Mia was furious, but she had no choice but to endure it. She nodded

"What? Chris is personally taking her shopping for clothes?" Amelia became agitated instantly.Amelia wondered how everything had turned out this way. Kathryn must have cast some spell on Chris. He had never liked the shopping mall.Amelia was both enraged and surprised.Hurt welled up in Mia's eyes. She was speechless.Amelia looked at her sympathetically. "Chris must be doing this to upset you. Don't take it to heart."Amelia didn't know how to comfort Mia. She wasn't sure whether she was trying to comfort Mia or herself by saying that.Thinking that Chris did this due to Kathryn's influence seemed far-fetched.Mia responded, "It's fine if he only did it to make me mad."If he could invest the energy to be angry with her, it meant she still mattered to him. She was afraid he was genuinely interested in Kathryn.She had witnessed Chris' impatience with Kathryn. Yet, he agreed to take her shopping.Mia felt Chris wasn't putting on a show for her. On the contrary, Chris must h

Chris went to answer a few calls. The pasta was ready by the time he was done.Chris didn't stop Kathryn when she tried to return to her room again. However, Kathryn had underestimated the extent of her sleepwalking tendencies. She slept in a separate room from Chris last night. Yet, something happened when she woke up the next morning.Needless to say, she found herself in Chris' bed again. As she glanced up, she was met with a piercing and somber gaze from Chris, causing Kathryn's hair to stand on end.She took a deep breath. "Mr. Albert, would you believe me if I said this was a misunderstanding?""What do you think?" Chris shot back. Kathryn was speechless. How had she wound up in this room?Kathryn knew her way around Rexton Manor. Besides, she had shared a room with Chris there before. As such, it was different from other places. However, under these current circumstances ...Kathryn couldn't remember what happened after she fell asleep last night.Kathryn's anxiet
