Chapter 128

Author: Angelica1
Tina knew that she could not stop Henry anyway—there was no way he could bear seeing his beloved being abused.

As she caught her balance, she watched coolly as Henry strode up, grabbing Irene's arm even as she kept slapping Linda, pulling her off firmly. "What the hell is wrong with you?! Stop!"

However, Irene was seeing red.

Even as Henry pulled her away, she was still hitting Linda with her hands.

And when she was pulled well away, she kicked Linda instead. "You bitch! You ruined everything for me! I'll kill you!"

Though Henry had quickly separated them, Irene still managed to land a few good kicks.

Fueled by inconsolable rage, Irene's strength was explosive—every slap and every kick was a ton worse than what she could usually dish out.

Linda's cheeks were left red and swollen, her lips pale in agony while a dull hum filled her ears.

She lay miserably on the tea table, unable to get up for a while.

On the other hand, as Henry threw Irene on the floor, she went limp as she ha

    Irene paled as she met Henry's icy glare and regretted snapping because of Linda and talking about what happened five years ago.Nonetheless, Henry pressed viciously. "Tell me! What happened five years ago?!"Irene cringed involuntarily from fear and broke down in tears.She knew that Henry would be even more furious if she confessed, but she did not dare to hide it either.Sobbing, she said, "There was only one recommendation slot in the jewelry design competition five years ago. Linda told me that Professor Walls admired Tina and was going to recommend her, but if she went, Linda wouldn't have a chance."I wanted Linda to get it, so that Uncle Roger would think more highly of her and approve of her, and even let her marry you… That was why…"Just talking about what happened five years ago left Irene's guts clenching.However, it was not because she regretted hurting Tina, but because she had hurt Tina over Linda, who turned out to be utterly two-faced.It was really not worth

    In fact, Tina was not even looking at Henry, as her eyes were locked on Irene.As for Linda, she had been on edge when Irene started spilling the beans, not expecting Irene to talk about what had happened five years ago.Her heart could stop when Irene confessed that she knew that Tina did not drug Henry.But while she thought that Irene knew she was the one who had drugged Henry, Irene finished her story, affording her a sigh of relief.-Five years ago, Henry was passionately in love with Linda, and was there any couple who never made love in that state?And yet, Henry never laid a finger on her.Linda had openly and suggestively tried to seal the deal, but nothing worked.Therefore, on their anniversary, she had someone drug Henry and offer herself as the antidote when the time was right.Even if they did it then, it would not affect Henry's opinion of her at all.With her elaborate scheme in place, she simply waited for Henry until he reached his room, so that she could c

    Tina suddenly strode past Henry and Linda and up to Irene, the culprit who had set her up five years ago, as she slapped Irene across the face.She really did not think that Irene was already that vile five years ago!Irene naturally wanted to fight back but felt Henry's glare on her and did not even dare to move, allowing Tina to keep going, slapping her repeatedly across the cheek.Tina only stopped after her slaps left Irene's face swollen, and she felt like she had expressed the spite that was accumulating inside for what Irene had done five years ago.Then, just as Tina was about to stop, Linda suddenly rushed up, shielding Irene. "That's enough, Tina! Stop! She kept it a secret because of me—blame me if you want! Don't hurt Irene anymore!"However, now that Irene had seen Linda's true colors, she did not feel grateful despite Linda's protection.She had really been stupid in the past—in fact, Linda had only come to her protection only when Tina was done! This so-called prot

    "Are you ever going to stop?!" Henry bellowed as he flung Irene aside, glowering as he whipped out his phone and called Andy. "Get up here. You're taking Irene to the cops."Irene's eyes widened in shock, while Tina turned away, picking up her phone from the tea table and turning to leave.She had achieved what she had set out to do, and she was not in the mood for Linda's innocent act.As she strode out, Irene was howling hysterically, "You're taking me to the cops?! Just because I hit Linda?!"Henry never answered, but that much was obvious.Irene had hurt his beloved woman as he watched—forget a cousin, as he would even hurt his own biological sister if he had one.Tina smirked as she left without looking back.She stood at the entrance, ready to hail a cab since she did not drive here.Several men stopped out just then as well.Their eyes lit up right then, as she was ridiculously pretty even without makeup.And seeing that she was alone, they hurried toward her. "Hey, be

    Tina's expression was icy and her tone cold. "I have nothing to say to you."She opened the door, but just as her foot touched the ground, Henry grabbed her wrist and pulled her back inside, then shut the door again."Henry Barnes!!!" Tina bellowed.Click!At the same time, the car was locked.Tina's eyes flashed in rage as she smacked Henry's hand away. "Do you have trouble understanding words?! I said there's nothing to talk about! Open the door—I'm getting off!"However, even as Tina's tone turned cold, Henry spotted a familiar figure in the rearview mirror.It was John Levine. His pretty brow creased—that man really showed up everywhere!Even as John turned toward his car, Henry floored the gas pedal and sped off.Caught off guard, Tina fell backward but did not hit anything this time, as a large hand shielded her.Tina was gasping, still in shock even as she reclined against the seat.Breathing a long sigh and holding back the expletives on the tip of her tongue, she

    Hearing that Henry was offering to make amends only reminded Tina that Linda had murdered her daughter.Tears welled up in her eyes, but she bit down to fight back the pain in her heart.Her darling Sophie had wanted this so much, but she was dead now.It was all too late—Henry's amends were pointless."Make it up to Sophie?" She scoffed in disdain even as she fought back her tears. "With what?"Henry presumed that her harshness was from all the grievances she had suffered in the past five years, and that it was only temporary, so he played along. "What would you like? Just say the word, and I'll give it to you."However, he did not offer to marry Tina.After all, she had always known her place and understood that Linda was the one he wanted to marry.It was a promise when Linda had saved him when she was six, and since then, Linda was the only one who could be his wife.Nonetheless, as Tina held Henry's gaze, she spoke with an icy tone that chilled the bone. "If I say I want

    John answered Tina's call almost instantly, his melodious voice asking, "Tina?""John, can you—"For her part, Tina was ready to cut straight to the chase as soon as John answered, but a large hand snatched her phone from behind before she could finish and cut off the call right away."Henry Barnes!" Tina bellowed, but he was so quick she only realized her phone had been snatched after the fact.Glowering, she promptly reached for it, but Henry simply held it over his head.There was already an eight-inch difference in their height, and with him raising his hand, Tina could not reach her phone no matter how she strained herself.Furious, she stomped her stiletto heel into his foot as hard as she could."Oof!" Henry gasped in pain and leveled a cold glare at her as he growled, "You're killing your husband!""Go to hell!" Tina spat.He had not married her for five years, and he was now calling himself her husband?!Dream on!Even as Henry buckled from the pain, Tina glowered a

    Henry's eyes were on Tina even as he held his cigarette and answered the phone.Tina ignored him as he had clearly mentioned Linda's name to screw with her, but just as she got up, Henry's face dropped.He dropped his cigarette on her too, and she flinched in pain, losing her balance and falling again.However, Henry was busy assuring Linda endlessly as she screamed in terror on the other end. "Calm down! I'm coming right now—I'll save you! It's alright!"He did not hang up as he continued offering words of comfort, completely ignoring Tina as if she was never there.As soon as he returned to his car, he floored the gas pedal, disappearing into the night."Henry Barnes!" Tina yelled just as she got up, but her voice was drowned out by the roaring engine, and she was left standing as she watched Henry's car disappear from sight.A cold breeze blew just then, and the rustle of leaves echoed on both sides of the road.As Tina shuddered, she picked up her bag from the ground and to

    As soon as Henry heard that Tina was hurt and hospitalized, he got into his car and rushed to the hospital, only to see John touching her upon arrival.However, John had already been furious with Henry when he found Tina in her tragic state.If he had not dumped her at that isolated place, she would not have suffered so much.Hence, John stood up.Henry presumed that he was backing down and released his grip, only for John to suddenly get up and punch him in the face viciously.It came so quickly it caught Henry off guard, and it struck him true.While John was a gentleman, and this was the first time that he had ever punched anyone, he did it so viciously.Henry stumbled backward once before catching his balance and felt blood in his mouth.Still, his face contorted savagely, but as he was about to return the punch, Tina suddenly got out of bed.She knew him too well and scrambled out of bed to stand in front of John.Henry's eyes widened and promptly stopped, his fist just

    "Tina!" John cried, grimacing in heartache as he dropped to one knee, wrapping his coat around her before carefully picking her up.However, she was hurting everywhere after the robber kicked her repeatedly.She gasped in pain without knowing as John touched her and could not see where she was hurt under her clothes.She was not loud, but the pain in his eyes showed even more.He gathered her in his arms even more carefully this time, while Ian drove over in his black Maybach.Ian opened the door, and John put Tina in the backseat, barking, "Get us to the hospital!"At his order, Ian floored the gas pedal and sped off.-Much later, John was sitting by a hospital bed, his eyes fixed on Tina, who lay frailly on it.The doctor told him that Tina was bruised all over, clearly having been kicked repeatedly.John's heart clenched at the thought, his pain welling out.That was when Tina woke up and found herself staring at John's dark gaze right away.She was awake but also felt

    The robber started fantasizing—once he got rich, he would kick his wife and the three money sinks to the curb and get himself a young pretty face to carry his genes.With that thought, he cheerfully returned to his bike and sped off, not caring about what happened to Tina.She lay on the ground, watching as the last thing she kept of Sophie disappeared from her sight, tears rolling down her cheeks. "Sophie…"In time, her body slowly turned stiff from the cold as she lay on the icy ground.Her tears would dry up quickly, but more would flow soon after.There was no telling how long had passed before she completely passed out.-After getting Henry's call, Andy promptly drove to where Tina was, but she was not there when he arrived.He alighted and yelled, "Ms. Smith!"There was no response, so he returned to his car and called Henry, but the call was cut off right away.After all, Henry had called him to pick Tina up while he sent his people to save Linda. At this time, he m

    Furious, the robber lunged at Tina viciously. "You bitch! You asked for this!"Tina was flat on her back and did not have the strength to fight back as the robber charged at her again.She could only curl up to hold onto the necklace containing Sophie's bone."Give it up!" However, the robber was a blue collar worker and very strong.His hands were like pliers that grabbed firmly on her arm as he attempted to unfold her.He did not expect Tina to hold on so tightly that his temple veins were bulging, and he could not even pull her arm off."Fuck! Don't think I can't make you budge!" he swore as he sprang to his feet again. Unable to pull her off, he kicked her repeatedly.He did not hold back, just like how he never held back on beating his wife whenever he got too drunk.In fact, he was furious this time and kicked Tina even harder.However, Tina only curled into herself even tighter amid the pain.Even as she started blacking out, she held onto the necklace containing

    Tina was the one who had taken care of Sophie from birth.Since jewelry was cumbersome when taking care of children, she was used to not wearing it even after Sophie's death.At most, she wore a watch to work—hers was not all that valuable, but she took it off even though it was hidden under her sleeve.Having given the robber everything, and seeing that he was still measuring her from head to toe, she said earnestly, "I really have nothing else."She had been very compliant, and the robber believed her and started stuffing everything into the handbag.However, just as he was about to get on his bike, he spotted the necklace around Tina's neck.His face dropping, he hung the handbag on the bike while snarling as he returned to Tina, grabbing her shoulder, "You bitch! You lied to me!"He was a big man and could crush her collarbone right then.Even as Tina shuddered in pain, she did not know what had gotten the robber upset, fighting back her panic as she said, "I've really give

    It was a voice that would invoke any man's chivalry."I won't leave!" Henry promised Linda again.Relieved, Linda calmly closed her eyes, her breathing turning rhythmic.Thinking that she was asleep, Henry pulled his hand away…"Henry!"Linda promptly jolted awake, her eyes wide open.However, seeing that Henry was just moving to sit by the bed, she calmly closed her eyes again, this time holding firmly on his shirt to keep him.Nothing would change, even if Henry found out that Tina was not the one who had drugged him five years ago!In his mind, Linda would always be his savior, the woman he loved the most!He would love her like nothing ever happened no matter what she had gone through, and Tina had no right to compete with her!-Meanwhile, Tina continued walking along the eerily silent road after Henry had left her there.She would be lying if she said she was not scared, but she fought her fear and hurried along.It would take several hours to reach the city, but tha

    It was a line that reminded Henry of that moment five years ago, and he nodded. "Yeah. I told you I'd never let you get hurt again, Linda."The single line offered Linda assurance, and she threw herself into Henry's arms."Henry…" She sobbed endlessly, at once hysterical and miserable. "You came for me!"Pained, Henry pursed his lips and scooped her up in his arms. "It's alright. I'm taking you home right now.""Yeah," Linda murmured, hugging his neck and pressing her cheek against his chest, shuddering endlessly.She seemed horrified, refusing to leave his embrace.And that was how Henry carried her to his car, quietly telling the chauffeur to head to Rose Garden.It was almost ten when they arrived.As Henry carried Linda inside as well, the maid heard them and came out.Bowing respectfully at the two when she saw them, she said, "Mr. Barnes, Ms. Cook. Rory's asleep.""Good," Henry replied quietly and leaned down to tell Linda tenderly, "We're home, Linda."Linda did not s

    Seeing that Henry was stopping to listen, the man's eyes lit up with hope, and he quickly said, "It's the truth, Mr. Barnes—I'm not lying! She really came on to us!"That woman's acting was just too good.If they had not personally been there, even they would have doubted that the same person who came on to them was also the same person who had accused them!"It's the truth, Mr. Barnes!" the other man promptly echoed, his tone earnest as he tried to convince Henry.Regret was twisting their insides to a bunch too, as they did not have evidence—if they did, they would have shown it!They had been feeling gleeful earlier that they were doing it in a place without cameras.And now, they could not even defend themselves!Henry looked at them then.He could see that they were just stopping short of swearing it was the truth, and there was no hint of guilt in their eyes as they looked at him in turn."No!!! Get away from me!!! Please don't touch me!!! Henry!!! Henry!!!"But even as
