Elise turned out to be Mia's best friend. However, Elise had been trying to approach Chris all the time. Tally was doubting if her intentions were pure.Were they toxic friends instead? Did Mia still have to pretend to be grateful for what Elise had done for her?Sarcasm gleamed in Tally's eyes. "Your intentions were impossible to hide.""You …" Elise's heart was in her mouth. Her face went pale as she heard Tally's ambiguous words.Elise had intended to respond to Tally with sarcasm because of Kathryn. Yet, she couldn't. Attacking Tally wasn't easy for anyone.Tally sneered as she watched Elise become furious and struggle to respond. She walked straight into the café. It seemed like she needed to remind Kathryn to be careful of Elise.Markus had been waiting for her at the café for a while. He had even ordered her favorite coffee. Tally's demeanor softened as she sat down before Markus, a contrast to how she had treated Elise just moments ago. "What happened, Mr. Hunt?" Tall

"How could Kathryn have done this, knowing how hard it was to establish a career at Harborlean?" Markus asked.Tally was more distressed for Kathryn when she heard Markus had blamed Kathryn for everything.She couldn't help but think they were nothing but capitalists.Despite her feelings, Tally didn't dare to rebut him. She took a deep breath and said, "She doesn't have the nerves. You know it."Markus was silent."Don't you know how timid she is?"Yet, Markus didn't say a thing."Mr. Albert really did rape her. She just didn't dare to bring it up!"It was true. Kathryn had lost her virginity that night. Yet, she had no choice but to keep it to herself. She was afraid of losing her job and her home. While conducting his investigations, Markus had wondered which woman would have the nerve to scheme on Chris. It was at that moment he realized how bad the issue was. "Is there anything else you've withheld from us?" Markus asked seriously.Kathryn had been meeting up with Tal

Tally was eager to tell Kathryn about the good news after she left the café. However, remembering what Markus had told her, she promptly terminated the call. Markus had told her to keep it a secret. Given his assurance to handle the matter, Tally believed there was nothing left for her to do. Besides, she didn't want to cause more problems. Markus watched Tally climb into the car from the café. He took out his phone and sent Chris a message. The text was brief. It merely said, "It was Kathryn."...Meanwhile, Chris had arrived at Albert Manor with Kathryn.Franco had wanted Chris to come back alone. When he noticed that Chris brought Kathryn with him, his face darkened.During his hospitalization, Chris had never once visited him. He did show up once at the hospital, but only to fetch Kathryn. Resentment surged within Franco at the thought of that. "Why did you bring her with you?" Franco's question was forthright, voiced in Kathryn's presence. It was clear how much he despis

Kathryn looked at Chris. She didn't know he could be so despicable. He was such a dangerous man. A moment of carelessness while with Chris could lead to irreversible consequences. Living alongside him was truly demanding. At the thought of that, Kathryn felt like crying. Her mind was such a mess. She had no interest in what was happening in the Albert family. She was dreading to attend the medical check-up that afternoon.With Chris present at the Albert Manor, she couldn't find any excuse to avoid the medical check-up. Her headache was becoming increasingly severe.Franco was determined to dissuade Chris from holding a wedding ceremony with Kathryn. The news had already caused such an uproar at Harborlean. He wanted everything to stop.Franco took a few deep breaths to suppress the tension he felt. "Cancel the wedding. I'll agree to whatever you want." Franco decided to compromise. After all, the Alberts were the wealthiest family in Harborlean. He couldn't bear the thought

Franco knew his son all too well."Do you think he married that girl because he liked her?""Didn't he?""It was only a marriage of convenience," Franco said sullenly. He had carried out investigations as well. That was why he knew Chris and Kathryn's marriage was a marriage of convenience. It made things more difficult for him."Even if we got rid of her, he could still find someone else for another marriage. Do you think it can be settled?"Krista knew it as well. That was why she also knew that just getting rid of Kathryn wouldn't solve the problem. She was reluctant. She wasn't willing to give up all her hard work."Just give it to him first.""If Chris gets everything, what about Phineas, then?" Krista looked at Franco aggrievedly.Phineas Albert was Krista and Franco's son. He was still in senior high school. Krista wanted to safeguard the foreign subsidiary from Chris on his behalf. She had never shown any desire for assets in front of Franco, but she had no other
