Semua Bab Bright Future With Him: Bab 401 - Bab 410

After her first bite, Kathryn experienced a sense of contentment. "Is it that good?" Chris asked."Absolutely. Would you like to taste it?"Chris nodded. "Sure."Kathryn cut a small piece of the pancake and gently blew on it to cool it down before feeding it to him. Pancakes were a culinary delight Chris had never encountered during his time living with his mother, which explained his lack of familiarity with them.Conversely, Kathryn had an obvious preference for carbohydrate-rich foods like pasta, freshly baked bread, and cakes. Her first attempt at cooking had been pasta, even though it didn't turn out well."Is it good?" Kathryn looked at Chris eagerly after she fed him.Chris nodded. "Yeah. Not bad."The cooks had prepared butter pancakes. They had a powerful aroma of butter."See? I told you they were good.""Don't eat too much even if you're very fond of them, okay? It's quite late now," Chris reminded her."Okay. I'll only finish this portion."Chris was speechle

Kathryn was extremely annoyed by Wendy's harassment. She thought it was time for her to change her phone number.Regardless, she wasn't leading a particularly hectic work life, and her social circle wasn't very large. Hence, changing her phone number was no issue for her. …Kathryn's phone rang again as soon as she set it down. She instinctively wanted to reject the call but realized it was from Lewis. She answered the phone hurriedly. "Mr. Huber.""Come over to my place this afternoon," Lewis said in a serious tone.Upon hearing his tone, Kathryn asked weakly, "What happened?"She knew he wouldn't just invite her for lunch. Whatever the reason was, it wouldn't be something simple.Lewis didn't divulge any details and replied, "I'll have my driver pick you up. Come alone. Don't bring Chris with you."His request to come alone indicated that he had something specific to discuss with her.Kathryn gulped nervously. "O-Okay."Lewis promptly hung up the call, leaving Kathryn star

Chris checked the time and noticed that his meeting was about to start. He stopped teasing the blushing Kathryn and stood up. "Alright. Wait for me here, okay?""Mr. Huber wants me to go to Arctic Splendor this afternoon.""This afternoon?" Chris raised his brows, realizing that he had an engagement scheduled for that afternoon."Yes. Mr. Huber wants me to go alone. He said someone would pick me up."Chris didn't say anything. He frowned, contemplating Kathryn's words about Lewis arranging transportation for her. He had forgotten that she still had Lewis to rely on.He nodded. "Alright, I'll fetch you back later.""Okay." Kathryn nodded in agreement. With that, Chris left and headed to his meeting.Kathryn sat on the couch and patted her face, which had turned hot. She couldn't help but reflect on how Chris had treated her just now. She couldn't shake the thought that he might have kissed her because of the 100 million dollars.She refused to believe it. Yet, she couldn't fig

Lewis believed that Kathryn had a promising future, especially given her significant improvement in working on relief sculptures. He was confident that success through her own effort would be more fulfilling than marrying into a wealthy family. That was why he had been teaching her everything he knew."I'll inform Mr. Albert about it today." Kathryn didn't object. After all, their marriage was coming to an end.Lewis' temper improved as he noticed Kathryn's obedience. Since she had left Arctic Splendor with Chris, he had been worried about her vulnerability due to her gentle nature."Let's have lunch. Mr. Fleming had prepared your favorite garlic-roasted chicken.""R-Really?" Kathryn's spirits immediately lifted. Despite her timid nature, she couldn't resist her love for good food.Lewis sneered as he observed her reaction. "He doesn't provide you with enough food?""It's not that. It's just that we have different tastes."Her meals had become quite extravagant after her mar

Lewis glared at Kathryn fiercely. "I will seek justice for you today, no matter what."His determination was unwavering. He believed a powerful and wealthy family like the Alberts shouldn't refuse to accept her into their fold. Tears streamed down Kathryn's cheeks as anxiety consumed her. "I don't need justice. I want to go back."She couldn't bear to contemplate Chris's reaction if he discovered she was the woman from that night in Northvale and that she was now pregnant. Even though she had planned to leave Harborlean, she didn't want to die.Since graduating from school, Kathryn knew that Chris was the one person in Harborlean she should never offend. She knew just how powerful he was, especially after he had brought her to Sunshine Bay.Lewis could hardly breathe when he heard what she said. His glare was like a sharp knife, threatening to cut to the bone.In a fit of fury, he scolded her, "Look at yourself! Your grandmother would roll in her grave if she knew how useless
