Mrs. Carter led Tina through the door.She attempted to gauge Tina’s reaction by asking, “Miss Lynd. If I remember correctly, you’ve gone missing for five years. Why do you intend to visit John after so long?”Had Tina perhaps discovered her own heritage?Mrs. Carter’s question made Tina nervous.“I…” Tina lowered her head in response.There was no way she could tell Mrs. Carter that she wanted to try her luck by requesting John to save Kara.“I happened to be at the scene when he got into that accident some time ago. It was then I realized that Mr. Carter was also in Paris, so I decided to go visit him at the hospital. However, I don’t think he refers to himself by that name here, so I got chased out of the hospital because they mistook me as someone who tried to cause trouble…”Mrs. Carter’s eyes lit up. She then asked, “Are you saying that John never told you his actual identity in France?”“Yes. I have no idea what his identity is here.” Tina shook her head.Mrs. Carter vi
Chapter 381John's mother was shoving an outfit over, and Tina couldn't refuse her kind offer. "But there’s no place I can change." "We're both women. Why don't you just turn around?" John's mother demanded, "I will not look at you. Don’t worry!" What John's mother said was true. And Tina already had a daughter. She was not a young girl. She shouldn’t have been so nervous about it. Tina turned around and took off her clothes. John's mother fastened her eyes on Tina and saw a scar on Tina's waist… ‘It was her!’ ‘Tina was the little girl from back then!’ At the same time, John's mother had a sharp intake of breath, with an obvious murderous look in her eyes! Tina heard the sharp breath behind her. She got a little embarrassed. She almost forgot that there was a scar on her waist, so obvious that John's mother must have been shocked. "Sorry, I forgot I had a scar on my body…" "Oh, it's okay!" John's mother said. Tina changed into the clean outfit
Chapter 382Tina gritted her teeth and followed Samuel out. She was so nervous that she couldn't help but think about it. 'Does Mr. Langford want to punish me because of Cindy? Or did I piss him off at work today?' Samuel was walking ahead. Seeing that Tina was slow as a snail, he couldn't help but reach out and grab her wrist. Tina was startled and tried to break free, "Mr. Langford, what are you doing? Where exactly are you taking me?" Seeing Tina so anxious, Samuel's face immediately darkened. "I'm not going to eat you!" He then carried Tina up in his arms, lest he really changed his mind and ate her alive if she kept walking so slow. "Let go of me!” Tina struggled, but suddenly, she heard a childish voice. "Mommy!" Her body froze, and she thought she was mishearing. Tina then turned her head, and she saw a little girl in the yard! Samuel put Tina down, and she was dumbfounded. "Mommy's back!" Like a swallow returning to the nest, Kara couldn'
Chapter 383Tina was completely stunned.She didn’t make a reaction until she watched Samuel eating up the chocolate in her hand little by little."That's… That's for Kara!""I know," Samuel said in a casual tone. And he even frowned, as he despised the chocolate."The chocolate is ordinary. I really don't know why you consider it delicious."Tina looked at Samuel and then looked at Kara, who was upset but didn't dare to utter a word.Then she flew into a rage suddenly and couldn't help scolding, "Samuel, what have you done? How can you rob Kara of her chocolate?”The distinguished president of the Langford Group grabbed a child’s chocolate shamelessly. If the news spread, he would definitely become a laughing stock.Looking at furious Tina, Samuel didn’t get angry and explained, "I’ve asked someone to buy her a lot of chocolates. Why can’t I eat one?""That’s different! If you want to eat, you can take another one. But why did you grab Kara’s chocolate?"‘How can he grab Ka
Chapter 384The assistant looked a little alarmed. Apparently, something really bad had happened."What is it?" Samuel's brow furrowed, and his face was gloomy.The assistant walked forward and whispered something to Samuel.Instantly, Samuel exuded an icy aura. His eyes showed an appalling look."Inform everyone to have a meeting right now.""I got it!" The assistant wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.Tina was taken aback by this scene.Although she didn't know how the business world worked, she had heard of Samuel's reputation. He had always made quick decisions in everything he did.Tina wondered how serious the matter was that it could make him look gloomy.Tina only dared to wonder, and she knew she shouldn't know too much.She rode the elevator alone and made her way to the CEO's office.Tina had just put her handbag down when she heard a crisp voice from behind her."Hello, are you Miss Lynd?"Tina was startled and turned around. She had thought that the CEO's
Chapter 385The employee then grinned. "Thank you so much! I'll treat you another day!" "It's okay." Tina waved her hand and then headed for the elevator. However, at the moment the elevator door closed, the employee exchanged a glance with Lynne. "She is definitely finished this time. Do you believe me?" Lynne asked with a smug on her face. The employee answered contemptuously, "She thinks she's Mr. Langford's wife? She is just a mistress. After such an incident, she is definitely screwed!" Ding! The door of the elevator opened. Tina was carrying several bottles of water in her arms. Looking at the closed conference room door, she couldn't help but take a deep breath. She suddenly regretted it. ‘Why did I agree to do it?’ However, she had come here. She was going to do the task anyway. Samuel couldn't kick her in front of so many people. Tina pushed open the door. At a glance, she saw Samuel sitting on the head of the conference table and a bunch of e
Chapter 386Hearing his words, Tina was instantly dumbfounded in place."What do you mean?""Since all of us signed confidentiality agreements, it is impossible for us to expose it. But she didn't do that. She wants to deal with all of us!"Samuel's eyes suddenly became appalling. He said, "Tina."Looking at his suspicious eyes, Tina trembled and said, "No! How could I possibly do such a thing?""Bang!"Suddenly, the door beside her was opened.Cindy suddenly appeared. She pointed at Tina and said, "Samuel, I'm sure Tina did it! Not only did she lie to you, but she tried to make the Langford Group go bankrupt!"Saying that, Cindy suddenly threw many photos on the table."Look at these photos. How can you explain them?"Seeing those photos, Tina felt that the blood in her body seemed to freeze and her head was buzzing.Those photos were taken when she and Desmond were together! Some of them were taken at school five years ago!It seemed that Tina and Desmond had connections
Chapter 387Tina felt so wretched. She was like a doll without a soul and gave up resistance.She knew that she had no room to resist.Samuel wanted to torture her, while Cindy wanted to kill her.They all wanted her to be miserable.Cindy was well-prepared and made a phone call.Before long, the police car drove to the door of the company. Tina was caught by the police and left the meeting room.A large group of employees gathered outside to rubbernecker. They couldn't help covering their mouths and shouting.How flattering they were to Tina at the beginning, and now how disgusting they were."God, I didn't know that she was such a person!""How nice Mr. Langford was to her. I didn't expect that what he raised was an ungrateful woman. She screwed us over!""Haven't you heard of it? This woman didn't even go to college. She dropped out of school because she was sleeping with her boyfriend and her private life was messed up. She couldn't stay in Freesia before she came to Par
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
