Krista looked at the butler and shouted, "Call him again!"Krista was now determined to find Franco's whereabouts.Savanna was stunned by her rage.She gave the butler a look. The butler immediately dismissed himself and the maids.Savanna and Krista were the only ones left in the dining room. Savanna looked at Krista and asked, "Why are you lashing out at them?"It was pointless to lash out at them. Treating the household staff with respect might serve her better.Besides, no one could control Franco's whereabouts. The butler would face a scolding even if Franco picked up the call anyway.At that moment, Krista finally realized that Franco's heart was no longer with her."How could he do this to me? Have I not sacrificed enough for this family?""Cut it with the crap!" Savanna angrily shut her up.Krista was stunned by Savanna's statement.Savanna was right. Whatever Krista had been saying was utter crap. When Krista had married Franco, Savanna had reminded her of what trul

The corners of Kathryn's lips twitched as she nervously rubbed her hands together. "I don't think this is appropriate.""How is it not?""Have you forgotten?" Kathryn was on the verge of tears.Kathryn thought about the agreement they had made previously. Chris and Markus had said they didn't remember a thing. Nothing was documented. They could easily backtrack on their word if they wanted to.Plus, the terms and conditions were unclear. Now, she didn't know how to reject Chris' advances. He hugged and touched her whenever he pleased.A meaningful glint shimmered in Chris' eyes as he noticed the hesitation on her face.How could he not realize the value of such a precious person in his life?He swiftly scooped her into his embrace. He was careful and delicate about it. Yet, Kathryn was startled by the sudden embrace. She quickly covered her stomach. Chris' smile softened significantly as he noticed what she was doing.His gaze fell on the hands that were covering her stomac

Chris made a trip to the Albert Manor after breakfast. The matter concerning the Baydem Group was hanging in the balance.He brought Kathryn along. Now, Kathryn was by his side wherever he went.He didn't feel secure after the accident a few days ago. Leaving Kathryn alone in Sunshine Bay didn't make much of a difference either.In the meantime, even before Chris arrived at Albert Manor, Krista was shrieking hysterically. She furiously swept everything off the coffee table and had completely lost control.Everyone held their breath as they looked at her. Krista fixed a fierce glare at Franco. "You've been out all night, and now, as soon as you're back, you're asking me to give the Baydem Group to Chris. Has our relationship deteriorated to this point?"Krista was getting increasingly worked up. It didn't matter who had called Franco last night; he hadn't picked up calls from the butler or her.Krista was very certain that Franco was cheating on her."What do you mean the Bayde

Kathryn could tell how displeased Franco was with her. She knew she had said something wrong, but she couldn't help herself. What she had said was the truth, and she hadn't twisted the story in any way.With a sneer, Chris challenged, "So, why don't you describe the kind of person she is?""Aren't you the reason she has everything?" Franco mocked.He was implying that the woman Chris had fallen for didn't have a penny to her name."You provided everything to Krista, from head to toe. You don't think that's a problem, do you?" Chris retorted."A-Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" Franco was on the brink of losing his temper. If the Winchesters had been properly managed, he might have moved on from this issue ages ago. However, he couldn't afford to do so from the looks of things. If Chris renounced his relationship with Kathryn, he could return to enjoying a laid-back lifestyle.He struggled to contain the anger in his heart as he scolded, "You really want the Baydem

Emily retrieved a blank check from her bag and pushed it toward Kathryn. Kathryn furrowed her brows. "What's this for?""You can fill in the amount and take this check once he acquires the Baydem Group. The final figure is up to you," Emily explained.Kathryn was left speechless. Emily was way more generous than Savanna and Krista. Evidently, the first wife's daughter held significant power, surpassing the second family by a considerable margin.Kathryn was caught between a rock and a hard place. Her agreement with Chris was supposed to end once he got the Baydem Group.Should she accept the blank check?"What's the matter?" Emily's tone grew heavy with Kathryn's inaction."I don't think this is appropriate. Don't you agree, Ms. Albert?" "Don't tell me you aspire to be the rightful Mrs. Albert. You know that's never going to happen!" Emily's stern tone aimed to snap Kathryn out of her daydream.The corner of Kathryn's mouth twitched uncontrollably.Feeling unsettled, she re
