The door of the black Porsche Cayenne opened and Samuel got out of the car. At that moment, the onlookers couldn’t help but gasp in disbelief.They thought the mysterious guest would be a fifty something old man with a huge beer belly, whose presence would be accompanied by a few young beauties.Little did they expect him to be such a tall, fine man!He was even more handsome than the mixed-blooded models prancing onstage. What was more, he exuded a charisma far more superior than models who only had looks.Samuel was like an honorable and stern king, who could undoubtedly earn his people’s respect and submission.“What the actual f*uck?” Tiffany widened her eyes in shock, “Is this the mysterious guest they’re all talking about? Oh my god! He’s so rich and handsome! What a gem!”While Tiffany was falling head over heels Samuel, she looked at Tina and realized that Tina’s complexion had turned unusually pale. “Miss Linda, what’s wrong? Are you okay…?” Tiffany waved her hand in f
Samuel’s silence meant Cindy still had a chance to win him over.Elated, Cindy continued the conversation with the honorable guests at the banquet.Suddenly, Samuel said curtly, “I’m heading out to clear my head.”Without waiting, he headed in the direction of that woman who had left in a hurry just now.Cindy wouldn’t dare to trail from behind. Thus, she continued talking to the guests about the current news in high society.In the meantime, Tina had run off to the hotel’s backyard.Only when she realized she had left the banquet and out of Samuel’s sight did she stop running.Ring… Ring…Her phone rang.Tina looked at the screen and realized that it was a call from Tiffany.Tiffany sounded worried. “Miss Linda, what’s going on with you?”“I’m so sorry. I had a terrible stomachache just now, so I couldn’t tell you what was going on,” Tina said apologetically.“Oh, alright then. That’s completely understandable.” Tiffany didn’t press on as she changed into another topic. “A
Where would Kara go if Tina disappeared? If Frederick knew about what happened to her, would he take care of Kara for her?Right then, someone called out to Samuel in a coy and flirtatious tone, “Samuel!”Samuel turned and frowned. When he spoke, his voice reflected intense displeasure.“Why are you here?”Cindy looked sad and wronged as she wailed, “Samuel, I’m just worried about you! It’s already late at night, and it’s freezing out here.”Noticing that Samuel looked angry, Cindy hurriedly explained further, “Besides, I can’t stay here any longer. I’m really worried about Keith. He’s been missing for days, and we still couldn’t find him. What if something bad happened to him? As a mother, I can’t breathe when I think about this.”While she spoke, sorrowful tears streamed down her face.Samuel frowned. It didn’t seem like Cindy was faking it. After all, Keith was her biological son. As a mother, it was only natural for her to worry about his safety.“Keith’s a smart boy. I’m s
Only after Tina took off her torn gown did she feel the stabbing pain coming from her knee.She took one look at her knee. It had already turned red and puffy.After bandaging up the wounded area, Tina slept while enduring the pain.However, she was awoken by a nightmare in the middle of the night.In her dream, Samuel had dispatched a team of hitmen to get rid of her when he realized that she was still alive. He wouldn’t even let her five-year-old daughter off the hook.The nightmare was too realistic. What made it more terrifying was the fact that Samuel was capable of doing such a heinous thing, given his cruel and inhumane nature.Though Tina was terrified, she still needed sleep no matter how hard it was. She twisted and turned on the bed, but to no avail.“Mommy, you look really tired today.” On the dining table, Kara saw Tina’s dark eye circles. She said curiously, “You look like a panda!”“I couldn’t sleep yesterday because of a bad dream.” Tina tried to get her spirits
Preoccupied with her thoughts, Tina left in a hurry.She didn’t get to hear her coworkers gossiping about Mrs. Langford.After reaching her work station, she heaved in a deep breath and tried to focus on her tasks.Only when she was immersed in work could she find peace in life.Soon, evening came.A black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the company entrance.Tina’s coworkers shouted in excitement, “She’s here! She’s here!”“Oh my god! Mrs. Langford’s actually here!”Cindy got off the car gradually in her greatest finery. She looked exactly like a rich socialite.“Mrs. Langford, you look really pretty today!”“You’re even more beautiful than yesterday! You look exactly like a model!”Upon hearing the compliments, Cindy’s heart pounded in excitement.However, something was still on her mind.The only reason Cindy was released from her house arrest was because of Keith’s deep desire to see his mother.However, she couldn’t just rely on that boy. She still needed to win Samu
Cindy, on the other hand, couldn’t recognize Tina the slightest.The moment Cindy saw the woman in front of her, she frowned and let out a scathing comment.“Oh my god! Are you actually Linda?”“Your outfit is so ugly! You don’t look like a competent fashion designer at all!”Tina was still wearing her disguise, which consisted of a loose dress and a huge pair of sunglasses. At one glance, she seemed like a woman with no fashion sense whatsoever.However, Tina tuned out Cindy’s criticisms with ease.She was filled with shock. She couldn’t believe Cindy Young was sitting in front of her right now.What happened five years ago flooded her mind instantly.This vile woman right here had always framed her for something she never did.In the end, Cindy had convinced Samuel to be her accomplice in her acts of cruelty. Together, they plotted to murder Tina along with her newborn daughter by drowning them in the sea. “What are you daydreaming about?” Cindy snapped in displeasure. “Is
Tina clenched her fists, her hands sweating.If she took off her glasses and revealed her face, she would be done for!“It’s not that I’m trying to anger you. My face is a little bit deformed, and you might be shocked when you see me.”“I don’t care, just take off those sunglasses! Don’t you dare defy me!” Cindy snorted scornfully. “Let’s see how ugly you are!”Tina clenched her teeth.She didn’t expect things to turn out like this.When Tina was in a tight spot, Cindy’s phone rang all of a sudden.At first, Cindy wouldn’t budge until she saw Linda’s face. However, her complexion changed the moment she saw the phone screen.“Hello?” Cindy, who sounded arrogant and obnoxious before, changed her tone into that of a gentle and loving wife. “Samuel!”The person on the other end of the phone was none other than Samuel Langford.“What? You want to come here?” Cindy sounded extremely excited. “That’s great!”After exchanging a few flirtatious lines, she forwarded the address of the
When Samuel appeared, Tina lowered her head to make herself less noticeable.His chilling gaze swept across the crowd. For some reason, his eyes fell on Tina for a while.Tina’s heart was racing. Was her identity about to be exposed?Soon, Cindy burst out of the fitting room.“Samuel, you’re here! Take a look at my outfit! Do I look pretty?” Cindy asked with a flirtatious tone.Only then did Samuel shift his gaze away from Tina.Oddly enough, the old-fashioned and weird-looking woman seemed familiar to him.He looked at Cindy, who was wearing a red gown. Her wearing such bright colors was unusual, as she always carved an innocent and gentle image for herself.Samuel frowned. “This dress, it looks…”The design of the dress was simple yet intricate. It was fascinating how it enhanced Cindy’s figure with such a simple design.Suddenly, another woman flashed across his mind.Tina would look better in that.When Cindy noticed that Samuel seemed annoyed, she panicked.“You don’t
Chapter 826The man's breath was scalding her skin, and his deep, husky voice assailed her eardrums.Like a scared rabbit, Tina abruptly turned around and asked, "What are you doing..."She turned around, only to end up in his arms. The man happened to bend down, but she kissed him by accident. It was not her intention.Tina widened her eyes in astonishment.Samuel hadn't expected her to suddenly turn around. It was such a pleasant surprise.He didn't give the woman a chance to escape. He lifted the blanket to cover Kara and keep her out of the improper scene.In the next instant...He wrapped his arms around Tina's slender waist."Heh, did you do that on purpose, eh?" His voice was thick with playfulness."I didn't." Tina avoided making eye contact with the man.'Come on, it was just an instinctive reaction.'Unexpectedly, things went this way. She found it hard to explain.As expected, Samuel was not convinced. "Stop quibbling."This woman was full of lies.He found
Chapter 825Tina originally felt a little embarrassed. As she listened to Kara's words, Tina's fair face and ears turned red uncontrollably."What are you talking about? Why don't you hurry over here and take a nap?"Tina couldn't help but glare at her daughter.She couldn't understand why her daughter said that. Keith must have taught Kara such things.Tina thought, 'I should talk with Keith.'Although he was a genius hacker, and he knew a lot of things at a young age, he couldn't mislead his sister.Just as Tina was muttering inwardly, Keith, who was talking to Arthur, suddenly sneezed."Wow, boss, I didn't expect you to sneeze like an ordinary person."Arthur said with a voice changer, "Tut, tut. Is someone cursing you?Keith couldn't help but frown."Who dares to curse me?" He narrowed his eyes. Although his face was young, his tone was like that of Samuel. "Is it you?"At these words, Arthur immediately broke a sweat as if a big crime was pinned on him."Boss, I was w
Chapter 824Samuel was walking so fast that Tina had to jog to keep up. She was afraid of being left behind.Finally, Samuel stopped at the door to Kara's room.After he carried Kara inside, Tina came up.The sight of the woman appearing and panting made him frown."What happened to you?""I," Tina stammered, "you walked too fast. I couldn't keep up."She didn't know why she was so weak now.It was not a long way from the courtyard to the room. The trotting had brought profuse sweat to her forehead. Her face was a bit pale, and she was teetering.Samuel saw it, tensed up, and grabbed her despite his anger at her.Like iron, his robust arm wrapped around the waist of the tottering woman.His brows locked in a frown, he said coldly, "Did you cast the doctor's caution to the wind? You're aware of your condition and know that you need to recuperate, yet you ran so fast. You'd get yourself killed."In a deep voice, he reproached Tina for not caring about herself.To Tina's ears
Chapter 823"What?" Immediately, the maid got the attention of the other maids around. The maid glanced at Tina who was chasing after Samuel and gleefully told the others what had happened earlier. "Mr. Langford warned that woman that she was only a maid. "He also told the little princess that the woman was not her mummy. Only his wife could be the little princess's mommy!" The other maids were stunned. "Really, Mr. Langford really said that?" "If Mr. Langford treats her as a maid, how can she come to the party this afternoon and wear such a fancy dress..." "It must be due to the little princess!" "Mr. Langford gave her some decency for the sake of the kids, but that woman went too far. I heard she claimed at the party that she was Mr. Langford's woman. She went out of the boundary." "Mr. Langford must have been angry with this woman. He went to take the little princess away himself and warned..." The maids gossiped and chattered. They used to be careful
Chapter 822Samuel's tone was icy.Kara pursed her lips and said aggrievedly, "But Mommy is not a maid. Even if Mommy were a maid, she would always be Kara's mommy."Kara's words gave Samuel a headache.Samuel thought, 'Ah! Like mother, like daughter!'Tina always makes me nervous, and so does Kara. Kara is on her mother's side and doesn't take me seriously.'They may be secretly calling me a bastard.'Samuel stopped in his tracks and asked coldly, "You are very unwilling to let your mommy leave, right?""Yes!" Kara nodded her head repeatedly."Then tell me. Do you want me, or do you want your mommy?"At Samuel's words, everyone around was stunned.Tina was a little confused and wondered if she had misheard. How could Samuel possibly say this?Why...Tina was amused, feeling Samuel's annoyance. The originally cold and ruthless man looked a little childish.The drivers also lowered their heads, trying to pretend they had not heard anything.Samuel, however, did not bother
Chapter 821Once the words were out of Samuel's mouth, Tina's heart was in her throat again.She looked at his dark eyes that were gleaming with playful light and immediately had a bad feeling. Despite that, she asked, "What... is it?""Moving into my room!" Samuel replied.His authoritative tone brooked no argument.In fact, this couldn't be called a request.If he wanted, this woman should have appeared in his room last night. He wouldn't have let her go to the room next to the children's.Samuel was just upset that this woman had failed to appreciate his kindness. Through this, he hoped that she would cooperate.However...Tina subconsciously blurted out, "No!"…The air in the car was frozen in an instant."Say it again?" Samuel forced the words out of his gritted teeth.His scowl frightened Tina so much that a cold sweat broke out on her back.She was too careless to blurt out her thoughts.She had to explain, "It's... not like that. I mean, the children need care
Chapter 820"Haha, Daddy is really nice. Daddy was worried about me and Mommy?!" Kara immediately said. Samuel, who didn't want to admit he was terribly worried, snorted. "Yes, I really was. I was worried that your mommy would kidnap you!"When she heard Samuel had specially come over to pick up their daughter, Tina had had some inexplicable feelings. But after hearing her explanation, she felt like he had poured a basin of cold water down her head, making all her feelings disappear. Yeah, of course, Samuel was worried! He didn't trust her at all, but treated their daughter so nicely as if she was a little princess. Of course, he was afraid that she would kidnap his precious daughter!Feeling so uncomfortable, she could not help but say, "I wasn't thinking about kidnapping the child…""Really?" Samuel asked with a very suspicious eye, "Do you think I'll believe what you say?!"Honestly, this little woman just turned around and ran away without any hesitation. But she d
Chapter 819When the car came into Tina's sight without any presage, her face turned pale.She was afraid that someone would get out of the car to harm her, so having no hesitation, she turned and ran with Kara in her arms.Immediately afterwards, a man's shout came from behind..."Tina! Where are you going?"His voice was pleasant to the ear, though it was tinged with annoyance.Tina's heart skipped a beat suddenly, and a sense of security came over her.‘It's Samuel!’She stopped running. Before she could turn around, Samuel had caught her wrist.It seemed that he was worried that Tina would run away with their daughter.Samuel exerted so much strength that Tina gave a gasp in pain."It hurts!" She subconsciously cried out and struggled. "Release me..."However, upon hearing her words, Samuel got angry.He was going to be infuriated by Tina!He went to the hospital in the morning. During the examination and treatment, he missed Tina and their children a lot.However, w
Chapter 818Mireya was pissed off. She grabbed Madam Langford's arm and angrily complained, "Godmother, look! How dare she publicly say that? She is so ambitious! "We must not let her marry Samuel!" Madam Langford patted Mireya's hand and said, "Don't worry! Samuel will only marry you! Such a slut cannot marry into our family!" "What about our previous plans..." Mireya asked. After thinking for a while, Madam Langford replied, "We'll leave this woman alone for a few days... Then we will..."People saw Mireya and Madam Langford whispering to each other, and they thought that Madam Langford was very fond of Mireya. "Mireya will definitely marry Mr. Langford. Look how close she is to Madam Langford!" "Yes! As for that woman..." Speaking of which, they turned their eyes to Tina. Even though Tina was never conspicuous, and neither did she care about others’ opinion, those people were always picking faults with Tina and slandered her. "Although Mr. Langford loves
