There were two reasons why Samuel personally sent Kara to the police station. Firstly, this young girl seemed oddly familiar to him. Secondly, he wanted to see who her mother really was.How dare her child accuse him of being a bully!Samuel looked over in Tina’s direction immediately the moment the police officer informed him of her arrival.When he saw the person standing outside the door, his frown turned into a grimace.“Is she the one?”The woman had a haggard appearance. With her face covered with dirt, it almost seemed like she had tripped and landed squarely on her face.If she remembered correctly, this woman’s name was Linda, the fashion designer.Tina stood rooted to the ground. She still hadn’t come back to her senses.Samuel sneered, “You’re her mother?”“I…I…”Tina broke out in cold sweat instantly.She didn’t expect the kind pedestrian to turn out to be Samuel Langford.How could this be? He was always a cruel-hearted man who didn’t care for anything. Why did
Tina felt extremely awkward.Deep down, she swore she would never let Samuel know that he was Kara’s biological father.If Samuel knew that both Kara and Linda were cursing him all the time, their lives would no doubt be in jeopardy.“Mr. Langford, can I go now?” Tina asked carefully.Samuel asked her the same question, “What do you think?”“Umm…” Tina hesitated.“What do you want to do to my mommy?” Kara demanded, looking at him with vigilance.Samuel was irked. He didn’t know why this little girl hated him so much.Could it be that her mother had been constantly badmouthing him?Normally, Samuel wouldn’t care about what people said about him.However, he was offended by the thought of Linda instilling inaccurate thoughts inside the mind of such an adorable girl.“You’re not even going to thank me for saving your child?” Samuel asked.Only then did Tina react. She hurriedly said, “Thank you, Mr. Langford!”“Is that it?” Samuel frowned. It was obvious that he was dissatisf
Tina left in a hurry with her daughter in her arms.When she returned to the car, the back of her hand was filled with sweat and she was shivering profusely.“Mommy! Mommy, what’s wrong?”“Nothing’s wrong!” Tina said, though she was trembling from head to toe when she pulled her lost daughter into her arms tightly.Kara could sense that her mother was terrified. She bawled her eyes out and wailed, “Mommy, I’m so sorry! It’s all because I wanted to get my revenge against that monster! At first, I just wanted to puncture his car tires. I didn’t expect to be caught by him!”“It’s all my fault!”Tina’s heart wrenched as she looked at Kara’s crying face. “Stop crying. You’ll look ugly if you keep on crying.”“Mommy, I’m so sorry! Please forgive me!”“Of course I’ll forgive you.” Tina heaved out a sigh.“Really?”“Of course!”Tina changed her complexion to look stern. She warned Kara, “I know you’re looking out for me, but I’m more worried about your safety.”“I’m not the only on
When the bodyguard saw Keith, he couldn’t stop himself from gasping in disbelief.The person they regarded as the young master was none other than Keith Langford, Samuel’s son who had been missing for a while now.The rest of the guards didn’t believe his words.“What? The young master’s here? How can that be? That’s impossible!”“I saw him with my own eyes! He’s standing at the entrance of the kindergarten!”All of the guards in the car hurried to look at the gate.But at this moment, it was already the end of the school period.Manyparents were gathered at the gate, here to pick their children up. The guard had only caught a glimpse of Keith before his view was blocked by other people.“I don’t see anyone! Did you see it wrongly?”The guard persisted. “No, he was there! I saw him with my own eyes!”The rest of them doubted him.“Don’t you remember? Keith is a talented boy whose IQ exceeded a normal person’s! He doesn’t even need a teacher. Why would he be seen at a kinde
Tina felt anxious when she heard that they were being followed.“What? Who’s following us?”“I don’t know! Look at your side mirror. When we were leaving the kindergarten earlier, I noticed that the car was leaving with us.”“It’s been following us for a while. Something’s wrong!”Keith looked distressed.In his mind, he already had a guess as to who was behind this.It was definitely Samuel!Had Samuel found out that Keith was hiding at Tina’s house?Tina’s facial expression wasn’t any better than Keith’s.If her identity wasn’t exposed yet, then why was Samuel instructing someone to follow her?Had she gotten on his nerves by what she said just now? Was that why he was trying to murder her family?What terrified Tina even more was that there was another child in the car. Keith was an innocent child who had nothing to do with any of this!Samuel, that heartless b*stard!Why wasn’t he dead yet? All her problems would be solved if only she had stabbed him right in the heart
Tina jumped in shock. “What did you just say?”Keith heaved in a deep breath and repeated, “I said, I want to go back home to see my parents.”At first, Keith was still hesitant to leave. After all, his life with Tina and Kara felt more like a complete family compared to his actual home.However, he changed his mind when he witnessed the extreme measures his father was willing to undertake to achieve goals, as well as the frightful ordeal Tina and Kara had to go through to avoid his father.After all, Samuel’s name as The Tyrant of Freesia wasn’t for nothing.Even in France, he still held considerable power and influence. It wouldn’t be difficult for him to inflict harm upon normal civilians like Tina and Kara.Keith didn’t want Tina’s family to be destroyed just because of him.Tina asked worriedly, “You were abused in that household! If you go back, your life will be in danger!”“Mommy’s right!” Kara pulled Keith into a protective embrace. “Don’t leave me! I want to go to sch
Clad in her pajamas, Tina draped a jacket on her shoulders and went on the streets to search for Keith.He hadn’t gone too far yet. So, she should still be able to find him!The streets of Paris were cold and quiet. Occasionally, she would see homeless people roaming by, or drunken people vomiting or getting high.Tina’s appearance attracted a lot of attention, with people sizing her up constantly.Facing their rude stares, Tina tightened her shirt and glared back at them.Eventually, they broke eye contact and went back to their usual business.On the surface, Tina just seemed like an angry and unapproachable lady. Deep down, she was actually very anxious.A five-year-old boy was now roaming the streets in the dark. If she didn’t find him as soon as possible, he would be in danger.While Tina was searching through the alleyways of the apartments, she didn’t notice a car gradually approaching her.The Rolls-Royce seemed out of place among the old and torn buildings.The drive
“Ouch!”The two drunkards’ bodies flew in the air. They lost their consciousness immediately.Tina let out a sigh of relief. ‘Thank god, I’m saved!’She rubbed her wrist without raising her head up, “Thanks for the help, but I have to leave now…”All she could think of now was Keith Langford.She might still be able to save herself, but the same couldn’t be said for that child if he was in danger…Just as she was about to leave, a tall figure blocked her way.Feeling anxious, Tina was about to push the person away when a cold voice reached her ears.“Tina Lynd! It really is you!”It was just a few words, but they gave Tina a cold chill down her spine.She looked up, and the person standing in front of her…Was none other than Samuel Langford!God! What was he doing here?!If the two drunkards from before gave her annoyance…Then Samuel Langford gave her extreme fear!Samuel managed to grab Tina’s shoulder just as she was about to make a break for it.His grip was so vic
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
