But when she faced Chris' questioning, Kathryn found she didn't feel calm. She felt even worse, especially when she looked at his sharp gaze. "I-I …" What could she say?Right then, Kathryn forgot everything Tally had told her in her nervousness. She couldn't remember what Tally said about denying everything.She couldn't even talk with the way Chris stared at her.Chris asked, "What? Speak!" His words were even colder now. The danger in them made Kathryn realize she would be doomed if she admitted to it.It was just too scary! Kathryn was so scared that she trembled all over. "I-I went out.""When?""After two and a half hours!" "What time!"Kathryn was speechless. What time? What time had it been? She was done for!All this time, she and Tally had been thinking about how she could deny it. They never imagined that Chris would question her in such detail. He was even asking the exact time now!How was she going to answer now?Kathryn was overcome with nerves. She l

Didn't Chris say that the marriage was supposed to be a secret? What was going on now?But now the company was openly announcing their wedding. And the whole of Harborlean knew about it.Kathryn was nervous beyond description. It felt like her soul had been scraped out, and she couldn't even think about the problem properly. Tally was still unsure of the current condition but had seen the underlying issue. She couldn't help but feel pained as she pointed out, "Let me remind you that the Albert family is a snake's den. And also, your …"When she said this, Tally was so worried for Kathryn that even her tone became higher.The Albert family was truly scary!As for Kathryn's family, it shouldn't be complicated since they were from the countryside. However, her family was full of complex relations. Her stepfather liked to gamble. Her mother often pressured Jessica, who had moved to Harborlean after marriage, for money. This was because she favored her son over them. If Kathryn's f

"It isn't what you think!" Kathryn couldn't tell Lewis about the fake marriage. She was reminded of Jessica's concern. So, she knew she wouldn't escape being told off if Lewis found out about it.But she couldn't not tell him either, since Lewis was making her take Chris to see him. When she thought of all the troubles lying had brought her, Kathryn didn't dare to lie again. "We're in a fake marriage." She told him everything she'd told Jessica.After she finished, Lewis was quiet. But it only lasted a moment. After that, Lewis was immediately enraged. "Divorce. Divorce now! What mess are you two in?""Mr. Huber, I …""How dare you get involved in the Albert family's matters? Don't you know what kind of trouble that is?" Knowing that it was the Albert family, Lewis was even more upset.Sensing Lewis' agitation, Kathryn was worried that he might get a heart attack.Now that Lewis wanted her to divorce, Kathryn was in an even more difficult position. "It's not as simple as you th

Even though both Chris and Lewis had a significant role in Harborlean, they had never interacted before. That phone call was the first time they got in touch with each other.Chris took out his cigarettes and lit one up. He then said to Markus, "Come with me."Markus nodded. "Okay."...Meanwhile, Kathryn had arrived at Arctic Splendor. Jean Fleming, the butler, had asked Cara to leave the room.It was a sunny day, and the glorious sunshine shone on the chessboard. The room was warm.Kathryn was polishing a peacock relief sculpture with sandpaper, but she was so anxious that she could hardly breathe. The old man, who was playing chess with himself in front of her was too silent. From what Kathryn knew about him, she might have gotten into trouble if he behaved like that. Whenever her relief sculpture was out of shape, Lewis would always remain calm at first. Lewis suddenly threw a chess piece heavily onto the chessboard.Kathryn became tense out of fright. Her hands couldn'

Kathryn's body tensed up as she sat beside Chris. Inside, she was praying for Lewis to have mercy on her. She wasn't sure if there was a problem with the kitchen lighting. But she had just noticed that much of the beef in the stew still looked quite raw.Chris stared at the stew before him. Without the vegetables, it seemed like a bowl of clear water. The undercooked beef took him aback. He didn't know what to say. Despite his reservations, Chris nodded in response to Lewis' question and took a bite. "How is it?" Lewis asked seriously.Chris frowned and glanced at his wife, who sat beside him, looking upset. Her head was hung so low that it almost reached her chest. She was aware of her cooking skills.Lewis said, "It's awful, isn't it? Seems like you didn't know her enough before getting married. She's not a good match for you."It was then that Kathryn finally realized where Lewis' intentions lay. She sensed the coldness next to her and instinctively looked toward Lewis.T
