Bright Future With Him のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

Cara became even more worried. "How could it be so serious? I'll call Mr. Chris. We should go to the hospital right away.""Don't. He has a meeting in the morning," said Kathryn."But you're feeling unwell, Madam. What could be more important than you?" Cara hurriedly picked up the phone to call Chris without a second thought.Kathryn was aware of Chris' schedule for the day and didn't want to bother him at all. She snatched the phone from Cara's grasp and ended the call. She remembered that Tally had to head out for work today and said, "Don't disturb him. I'll ask a friend to take me there.""I-I think we should still inform Mr. Chris!" Cara was still worried. She thought of the maids who had been dismissed from here. The butler had mentioned that Chris was very fond of Kathryn. If she made any mistakes, it might not be as simple as leaving Albert Manor. She might even be kicked out of Harborlean."I'll talk to him!" Kathryn said. She was worried that Cara would exaggerate t

Kathryn and Tally sat on the cold metal chairs in the hospital corridor two hours later. Their faces were pale and lifeless.The latter held the urine test report, while the former held the ultrasound report. They looked at each other. Both were breathing rapidly and at a loss."We're screwed. I'm about to be broke real soon," Tally said lifelessly after a while.She couldn't help but wonder why she ended up with someone like this as her best friend. The situation felt like a calamity, and doubt crept in—she wasn't sure they could get through it together.Kathryn inquired, "W-What should I do?"She was pregnant with Chris' child. Kathryn's heart sank as all her efforts were utterly ruined. Tally's mind went blank when she heard Kathryn's question.She felt as if everything they had done in the past had been wrong. Tally would never choose to deceive Chris if they could go back in time. Their current situation was far worse than if they had just confessed from the start! And t

Despite Kathryn and Tally's extreme caution, they ended up in a dead-end."Mr. Albert," Kathryn answered the phone with trembling hands."Are you still at the hospital?""Mhm," Kathryn replied. It was already 11 am. Chris should be done with his work by now."I'll be right there to pick you up," Chris said.When Kathryn heard that Chris was coming to get her, her instinct was to refuse, but Tally intervened. She pressed her hand down and shook her head to warn against raising Chris' suspicions."Okay!" she said shakily under Tally's watchful eyes.Kathryn looked at Tally with a pale face and asked why she didn't let her refuse his offer after she hung up the phone."You just have gastroenteritis. Why should you be afraid of Mr. Albert coming to pick you up?" Tally inquired."I—""Remember, you're living together now." Hence, it was completely normal for him to come and pick up Kathryn. It would be weirder if she panicked and refused.Kathryn felt she couldn't hold on any lon

The Albert family appeared to be in complete disarray then. Chris didn't even bother to check on Franco, who was still in the hospital.He knew exactly what Krista had up her sleeve. Yet, Krista might not know everything on his end.For instance, Claude was the owner of the Clusia restaurant on the surface. But he also operated as Chris' private investigator in secret. He had been fully aware of Krista's covert actions over the years.He looked at Kathryn's nervous expression and said to Claude, "Go back to what you were doing.""Alright." Claude nodded and left.Chris placed a piece of chicken on Kathryn's plate and said, "The food here tastes good. Try some."She nodded but didn't touch the food. She was apprehensive about eating. She still remembered how she felt after having that plate of spaghetti in the morning."What if I felt nauseous during the meal? Wouldn't that give everything away?" Kathryn's heart raced at that thought.He frowned when he noticed she wasn't eating

Tally felt as if Kathryn's carelessness had rubbed off on her spending so much time together. She had prepared the report and thought she could temporarily deceive Chris. But the tampered report was still in her possession. Meanwhile, the report that should have been kept away from Chris was already in front of him. She hoped that Chris would be as careless as Kathryn. This way, he wouldn't notice the report until they retrieved it."I'll go to the company right away!" Kathryn said through gritted teeth."No! Don't!" Tally jumped to her feet when she heard that. She was afraid that Chris might become suspicious if he saw her at the company."Will you really be able to get the car keys?" If Kathryn went, she could tell Chris that she left something in the car, but what reason could Tally use? The latter also thought about that. "Then you should come over here right away. I'll go look into the situation."The girls came to an agreement. Kathryn hung up the phone and made her way
