Chapter 393John froze and didn't think that Kara rushed out."Kara."He immediately held Kara in his arms and stopped her.Kara, like a kitten baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, looked at the duke angrily."You are a bad guy. You mustn't scold my mom. My mom is the best person in this world. It's all because of those bad guys that she suffers like this. You mustn't scold her. Otherwise, I will hit you."Kara clenched her fist, looking fierce.The duke, who had been angry just now, was completely stunned when he saw Kara."How... How could it be possible?"He stepped back two steps, thinking he had got dazzled and muddled.'Why does this girl look so much like Coco?'In his memory, when his granddaughter Coco got lost and was abducted, she was the same age and lovely as the little girl."This is... This is..."He put his hand, which was trembling, over his heart."John, is she your illegitimate daughter?"'If not for this, why would John suddenly bring this girl
Chapter 394Originally, the duke wanted to turn Tina and Kara away, but he finally decided to give them another week because of Kara's arrival.Tina and Kara were able to live at John's villa.The next day, the lawyer called Tina and said that he still needed Tina's cooperation for her deposition."OK."Tina hung up, dressed up and was about to go out.Kara was sleeping. When she heard the noise, she woke up and said gingerly, "Mom, are you going to go out again?"Tina felt warm and said, "I will be right back. What would you like to eat? I will buy some snacks for you when I come back!"Kara cheered up immediately."Mom, I would like to eat chocolates.""What kind of chocolates would you like?""I want the chocolates that Mr. Meanie bought last time."When Tina heard that Kara mentioned Samuel, Tina's heart did a flip-flop, but she kept calm on the surface."OK. I will go to the supermarket to see if that kind of chocolates is available."Kara nodded lovely and asked, "M
Chapter 395Tina had a desire to hide herself to save trouble.However, Cindy, who just got out of the car, quickly spot and shouted at her,“Ha, Tina, how dare you still show up here? !”Tina felt alarmed but straightened her back before looking at Cindy.She clenched her fist tight with a sneer, “Why can’t I be here? Since you framed me up, can’t I be here to clear up the fact?”“The fact?” Cindy responded in a sarcastic tone, “What you call ‘the fact’ comes from seducing one man after another? Ridiculous! Frederick isn’t dead yet. How could you be in such a hurry to hook up with your ex-boyfriend!? Now you are again in a relationship with the duke’s grandson who’s unexpected to be John Carter back then...”“Tina, you’ve got quite a few tricks. You are definitely a temptress having men fling themselves at your feet!”Such gossip and rumors can’t upset Tina any more.Staring at Cindy’s nasty look, she spoke coldly, “You’re right. I’m not a good woman. Don’t you and your good husband f
Chapter 396Samuel!If it were just Cindy, Tina would dare to confront her.However, Tina couldn't deal with Samuel. Without waiting for the car to stop, Tina turned around and ran without hesitation.Cindy was bullied, so Samuel would definitely help Cindy get back at Tina.Tina was not a fool. She wouldn't wait for him to come to her.Samuel had just gotten out of the car when Cindy rushed to him and wrapped her arms around Samuel's waist."Samuel, you have to help me!"Samuel suppressed his disgust and tried to push her away, but he saw that Cindy was in a mess."Why are you here? And what's going on?" he asked with a frown.Hearing this, Cindy was happy, and she immediately cried even more pitifully."I know I was wrong, I shouldn't have been so concerned about your situation and come to the police station early, but I didn't have a chance to see you, so I was worried..."But I didn't expect that I would meet Tina!"To get back at me, she deliberately insulted you an
Chapter 397Tina was startled. She turned around, and instantly, her blood froze all over her body. "Samuel!" She didn't expect Samuel to catch up with her! "What do you want?" Tina took two steps back and subconsciously looked around. Then she pulled herself up. They were on a busy street, with many people bustling around. She supposed Samuel couldn’t do anything crazy. "Are you making trouble for me?" Tina asked, "I've already given my testimony to the police. If you want to ask anything, please contact my lawyer. I'm sorry. You can't wrong me anymore!" Tina said in a mocking tone. Samuel sneered, "I know you’ve always been an ungrateful woman, but I didn't expect you to change your mind so quickly. You’ve just hooked up with your old lover, John, and then you can't wait to get rid of me?" ‘John is not my old flame!' Tina said angrily, "What old flame? John is not my old lover! Besides, it has nothing to do with you!" Tina's words immediately irritated Sam
Chapter 398As soon as Samuel's words came out, John and Tina froze. Tina was in disbelief and could not help blurting out. "How is it possible? Everyone thought I died at that time, and how could we still have a marital relation?" Samuel sneered. "Tina, things are not as simple as you thought! You thought that after you faked your death, you could elope with Frederick and have no worries?" "Everyone did think you died at that time, but I didn't find your dead body, so I didn't believe you're really dead. There is no reason to divorce until death is declared, so you are still my wife. Do you understand?" Tina's head was buzzing, and she thought, ‘This... this is a joke, right? How is that possible? If our marriage still exists, then what about Cindy?’ "Then Cindy..." People all over the world knew that Cindy was Samuel’s wife. Samuel didn’t want to explain. He and Cindy had a nominal and fake marriage. He gave Cindy the title and made her child become his heir. He had taken
Chapter 399Noticing that Tina was nervous, John couldn't help smiling."I know what you mean. Don't worry. I’ll ask someone to tell Frederick that you are safe."Tina became stunned, as she didn't expect that John could see through her mind.She was very moved, but meanwhile, she felt even more nervous."Do you also think I have that kind of relationship with Frederick?"She could ignore Samuel and Cindy’s misunderstanding of her.However, John was so kind to her, and she didn't want him to misunderstand her relationship with Frederick."No. I believe you," John answered in a serious tone."I didn’t take care of you then. If Frederick hadn't helped you, I might not have had the opportunity to see you again. I should thank him."As John believed her firmly, Tina didn’t know what to do and became anxious."I don't even know how to repay you...""If you want to repay me, still regard me as your brother."Tina wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes."Thank you!"The c
Chapter 400Kara was startled. She said cautiously, "Uncle Hunt said that everyone who lives in the villa has to do a blood test, and he brought a doctor. I wasn't sure, so I called the hospital, and I saw the doctor's note before they drew my blood. Mommy, don't worry! I was not tricked!" Tina felt sore in her heart. She was afraid to scare Kara and said, "You are the smartest. But seeing you hurt makes me feel so bad..." "Mommy, did I do something wrong?" Kara asked. "No, you didn't. You've been waiting for me for so long, and you must be tired. Let's go take a nap, shall we? I haven't read you a story in a long time." "Great!" Kara nodded her head cheerfully. After putting Kara to sleep, Tina went to find Hunt right away. At that time, several doctors in white coats were transferring Kara's blood sample in the incubator to another box for transportation. Seeing Tina coming, both Hunt and the doctors were surprised. Hunt's face changed color. "Miss Lynd, what
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
