The king-sized bed in the presidential suite was a mess.The man’s face was divine, and yet there was bloodlust in his eyes and coldness that chills the bone.He was clenching on a woman’s wrist as he viciously swung her out of the room.“You tricked me! Get the hell out of here if you want to live!”“Ouch!” Tina Lynd gasped in pain.Glaring red marks appeared over the delicate skin on her wrist, and her tears were streaming. Her whole body was shaking, and she was so afraid she could die.The man before her was Samuel Langford, the most ruthless tyrant of Freesia. Rumor had it that his methods were so brutal, any living being that provoked him would soon vanish from the grid, as if they had vanished into thin air…But today, Tina had come to die!In fact, that was not all she was going to do here—she wanted to make it known to the whole city that she slept with Samuel Langford, and have her whole family buried along!Sniffling, she restrained the terror she felt even as h
Tina Lynd glowered as she shook off Ellen Golding’s hand. “Move!”“Argh!” Pearl Lynd screamed as Ellen’s nails dug sharply into her arm, and her cry startled everyone nearby!“What happened?! What’s wrong, Pearl?”Jonah Lynd reacted first and quickly moved to block out any inquisitive glances.“We just remembered that there are certain family matters we must tend to—excuse us!”Once they heard Jonah insist that it was a family matter, everyone nearby quickly gave up no matter how curious they were. At the same time, Jonah grabbed Tina by the arm and dragged her firmly to the living room where there were no outsiders. Then, unable to repress his rage, he slapped Tina viciously across the face!“You little wretch! Are you fighting back now?! Look what you’ve done—you’ve hurt Pearl!” He bellowed in rage. “Our family had raised you for ten years, so it’s your blessing to be sold off to Mr. Wallace, but you’re rebelling instead? The insolence!”The slap sent Tina tumbling to th
Samuel’s bodyguards were left utterly bemused.Whenever he sent them out for someone’s head, every single one of them would end up panicking, going down on their knees as they begged for mercy—even wetting themselves, in worst-case scenarios.And yet, this young woman who looked soft and fluffy like pancakes wasn’t panicking at all.Actually… Didn’t she look as if she was looking forward to this?!Still, they did not have time to think as they hurriedly brought Tina back to their car.Once they got in, however, Tina looked around and became a little disappointed. “Wait, why am I alone here?”Weren’t they supposed to bring the rest of the Lynds along?Did her plan somehow fail, and Samuel had decided that he only wanted her head?“Orders from above. Mr. Langford wants to meet you alone.”Tina’s head was already dropping dispiritedly, but those words made her excited again. “Really? I get to meet Mr. Langford? He’s really upset, isn’t he?”Afterwards, she tried to pry more info
Samuel’s body stiffened completely, obviously having not expected such a reaction from Tina. Even as she jammed her lips against his, she kept her arms tightly around his waist, bawling, “Oh, Mr. Langford! I love you so much… Please don’t be so heartless, please spare my family…”Nonetheless, Samuel came to his senses before she could finish, and firmly shook her off. “Get off! Get off me!”Like a provoked lion, he was staring daggers as if his eyes could slice through her.“No! No!” Tina kept going regardless, shaking her head even as she grabbed her leg this time. “Please, Mr. Langford, I won’t ask you to marry me—before I came here, my parents told me that I should agree to become your mistress if I have to…”Tina was basically glued to Samuel, and in his rage, he whipped out the gun he had holstered on his hip!“No, Mr. Langford!” Tina cried, but she kept holding on to Samuel anyway as she closed her eyes. She was dying for real this time—the ten years worth of grief and g
As Samuel paused, Mama Langford promptly pressed her advantage, “Your grandmother’s health is declining, and the doctors are saying that she will only last a few more years. All she wants is for you to get married…” Samuel cut her short. “I’ll never marry Cindy. Even if she did save my life, I only think of her as a younger sister.” “And, what? You want to marry this wretch instead?” Mama Langford asked, pointing at Tina.Samuel laughed coldly. “Her? That’s even less likely!” “Good.” Mama Langford breathed a sigh of relief. “In that case, we’ll do it my way—let her cooperate with your therapy, and when that’s done, you’ll fulfill your grandmother’s wish.”Then, as she hurried away, she added, “That’s all I have to say. Think about it!”After all, Samuel could change his mind in an instant, and she was not about to be embarrassed in front of so many people. Meanwhile, Tina was left gaping as she looked on. It was often said that rich and powerful families tend to get dramatic
The clear smack of the slap echoed, and Tina was stunned by what she had done.S-She had just slapped Samuel!Samuel had actually been a little tipsy, but he was fully awake now.“Ti—na—Lynd!” He snarled every syllable in her name like a raging lion, as if he would tear her into pieces in the next instant because of her insult!He had strutted over Freesia for over two decades, and everyone held him in reverence, not daring to even get too close. Therefore, he never could have imagined that he would be tricked by a plain woman, who ended up slapping him afterwards!“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry!” Tina panicked, and stammered amid Samuel’s wrathful presence, “T-That’s too sudden…”Samuel had no intention to wait for any explanation, however, and promptly turned to leave!He was afraid he would tear Tina into pieces if he didn’t, and since she was useful alive, he was not about to let her die so easily!Tina couldn’t help breathing a sigh of relief just then, since she had thought t
Without sparing a moment for thought, Tina ran.She was afraid that Mr. Wallace would extend his wrath to the caretaker and children of the orphanage, and ran as fast as she could towards the opposite direction. There was no way she could outrun an MPV, however, and was soon intercepted again, with two of Mr. Wallace’s goons keeping her restrained. Tina despaired. Did she go through great lengths to escape the geezer’s clutches, only to die today anyway?“What do we do with her, Mr. Wallace?” one of the goons asked.Mr. Wallace chuckled as he rubbed his hands. “Tie her up, and wait outside the alley. I’ll deal with her!”He had been nursing a terrible itch after Tina had escaped him before. This was the first time he had ever encountered such a spirited and rebellious woman, though that would only add to his thrill.Hence, his goons brutishly tied her up, threw her to the floor and left.Tina’s tears streamed as her thin shoulder slammed on the concrete floor, but she restrai
That little wretch had actually hit his head! It was lucky she had missed his vitals, or he would have died on the spot!Even as he nursed the terrible grudge, Mr. Wallace swore that he would catch that wretch even if he had to search high and low, just to tear her into little pieces!Nonetheless, the people in the car before him weren't reacting at all.Mr. Wallace’s irk grew, but just as he and his goons were about to hit the car, a cool voice spoke, “Hah! Someone is actually carjacking me in this day and age?!”Mr. Wallace was taken aback. Why did that voice sound so familiar?! Then, when he finally saw the figure sitting at the backseat, Samuel’s hawkish glare left him sweating in fear!He must have lost his head because of that little wretch, and tried to stop the car of the infamous Tyrant of Freesia!“Oh, it’s you, Mr. Langford…” Mr. Wallace’s legs turned to jelly and he almost dropped to knees. “It’s just a misunderstanding, we’ll leave right now!”With that, he made w
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
