“Tina, do you want to die?” Samuel threatened.“I-I’m just looking out for you!” Tina ran out of words and ended up blurting out, “You’re in love with her, right?”Samuel heaved in a deep breath. He had a strong urge to punch her in the face.“Get out, now.”Tina immediately got up. “Alright.”The moment she stepped outside the car, Samuel stopped her. “Wait, come back here.”Tina was frustrated. “What do you want me to do?!”Samuel shot her an annoyed glare. “You’re coming back home with me. Also, don’t forget to visit Grandma tomorrow.”Tina had a strong emotional attachment to Madam Langford, so she instantly agreed. “Alright, I’ll follow you.”Samuel drove her home personally. The entire journey, none spoke a single word. Silence reigned all the way.Finally, they arrived at Samuel’s private residence.Tina thought that Samuel would leave her behind and go inside. Unexpectedly, he grabbed her wrist roughly and grunted in displeasure, “I’ll show you to your room.”“What?
Samuel always ate at irregular timings. On top of that, he was also very picky with his food. Even Madam Langford couldn’t coax into getting rid of his bad habits. Yet for some reason, he found himself getting interested in tasting the food Tina made.“Sure,” Samuel grunted curtly, his tone grumpy. He purposefully made it sound like he was forced to do it.Tina rolled her eyes. It was a shame she didn’t have poison right now. Looking at the condiments beside the table, she had the urge to flood the whole thing with soy sauce.Despite her evil desires, Tina still couldn’t bring herself to waste food. At the end of the day, delicious food was still served.Samuel had tasted Tina’s home-cooked food twice. Once was when she was at the hospital ward to visit his grandmother, and the second time was when she made supper for his grandmother.Tina looked at him nervously. “How is it?”She was confident in her culinary skills, but she was still fearful when presenting her food to the hate
Out of the blue, he asked, "Umm, do you like to eat sweet things?"Tina nodded, joyful. "Oh, I love them! Chocolate cotton candy’s my favorite."Samuel was shocked. Coco's favorite food was also chocolate cotton candy."What's wrong?" Noticing his stare, Tina grew embarrassed. "Do you think I'm too childish? I mean, cotton candy is something kids would like to eat…"John shook his head almost immediately. "Not at all. What a pleasant coincidence, I also like chocolate cotton candy!""Really?" Tina was surprised. She didn't expect a gentleman like Mr. Carter to have a palate for sweets."I know how to make sweets, too. If you want, I can make some for you."John nodded happily, smiling. "Sure!"Tina warmed up to him instantly when he struck up the topic of desserts. She chatted merrily with John, her tone happy and eager. Aside from having the same preference for deserts, they also shared similar hobbies and interests. The entire time, Tina enjoyed herself. Before they knew
Samuel spotted the car right away and recognized the owner, who was none other than John Carter himself.Yesterday, Tina was flirting with him. Now, she had already wormed her way into his car.If he didn't verify her actions with her own eyes, Samuel would've thought that Tina was just an innocent woman. Now, however…"Let her be. She's just a tool I’m using to please my grandmother. You should stay away from her, Cindy. Nothing good comes from associating with that scheming woman," Samuel spat in disgust."Okay, Samuel. I'll listen to everything you say," Cindy replied coyly.When Tina was chatting merrily with Madam Langford, Samuel and Cindy entered the ward.Tina wasn't a dense person. Noticing the loving couple, she made an attempt to leave the room almost immediately."Grandma, I'll cut some fruits for you. What about you two?"Cindy took advantage of the situation and ordered Tina around like an entitled mistress. "Tina, wash the apples and cut them into cubes. Then, pe
Madam Langford tasted the chicken soup. Already, a deep frown graced her lips. “Why does this soup taste so nasty?”Cindy was stunned upon hearing that remark. “T-That’s impossible…”“Did you add anything into the soup?!” Madam Langford started nitpicking at the soup. “You didn’t add any fragrant herbs at all! Did you boil the chicken once with hot water before serving it to me?”Cindy couldn’t help but stammer. It was impossible for her to answer Madam Langford, as she wasn’t the one who made the soup. “I… I don’t know… I was just experimenting on the soup…”“You were experimenting on it, yet you dared to serve it to me? What do you think I am? Your guinea pig?” Cindy’s response only succeeded in angering Madam Langford even more.Cindy was so furious that her face turned a brilliant shade of red. She hated that five-star chef from the bottom of her heart. He screwed up the job, despite having received a hefty payment from her. Not only did she fail to catch any praise from Madam
Back then, Samuel had quickly detained Tina and performed a check-up on her on the spot. However, he forgot to feed her the required medicine. Now that he thought of it…Even if it was only an accident, the possibility of her being impregnated from that session was still there.Madam Langford stared at the duo’s expressions. The more she thought about it, the more she was convinced that Tina was pregnant.“You two! Don’t you know anything about pregnancy symptoms? I can’t believe that I need to remind you about them! Hurry and take Tina for a check-up, Samuel! It’d be great if she’s really pregnant! We’ll hold a wedding right away! I can announce to Freesia that I have a granddaughter-in-law now!” she gushed happily.Tina’s head buzzed throughout Madam Langford’s excited monologue. She had been suffering from stomach problems over the past month. Even her period had yet to come.Was she truly pregnant? It couldn’t be… Right?Samuel, on the other hand, had mixed feelings. He stole
“According to the report, you aren’t pregnant, Miss Lynd,” the doctor said.Tina could feel the invisible weight crushing her heart being lifted. “Really? That’s great!”She balled her fists together in triumph, feeling quite relieved.The doctor choked on his words upon seeing her reaction. In his line of work, he had witnessed a lot of patients who would do everything just to be able to conceive. It was his first time seeing someone who was happy about not being pregnant.Meanwhile, Samuel felt a mixture of emotions swelling in his heart as well. It was a great thing that Tina wasn’t pregnant with his child.He didn’t know why, but he was reminded by the scene where Tina had caressed her stomach. A pang of disappointment followed suit.“Miss Lynd. You may not be pregnant, but you still need to rest a lot. Your anemia is on the severe side. You need to maintain a good sleep schedule by waking up and sleeping early. Your diet should consist of more meat, eggs, and milk. Also, ple
Tina didn’t mind the arrangement. Regardless of who wanted to monitor her, be it Samuel or Cindy, she would leave the Langford family once two months were up.“Sure. It’s up to you to make those arrangements, Miss Young.”Tina walked out of the hospital, only to see a car parked in front of her. The bodyguard, who got out of the car, greeted her respectfully. “Hello, Miss Lynd. I’m Victor Miller, your bodyguard. I’ll be at your service from now on.”Soon, Tina got into the car and returned to the mansion.In the ward, Madam Langford was lecturing Samuel with a stern look.“Samuel. Now that Tina’s your woman, you need to be responsible for her, alright?”“Yes, I understand,” he replied.“I know Cindy saved you in the past, and that you’ve been treating her like your little sister because of that. However, I don’t think she views you the same way,” Madam Langford continued.The elderly woman wasn’t blind. She could see through Cindy’s intentions.All this time, she had been pret
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
