Chapter 144

Author: Angelica1
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.

    Tina Smith was the only person present for her daughter's cremation, and her loose black dress barely hid the weight she had lost.Her wistful eyes were red and puffy from tears too, and she took out a pair of hair pins, arching her back as she gently slid them into her daughter's hair.It was a birthday present for her daughter, which she had designed herself."Happy birthday, baby. Mommy will always love you."As Tina leaned down to gently kiss her daughter's forehead, the icy touch to her lips left tears welling up in her eyes again.It was soon time nonetheless."My condolences."A crematory assistant approached Tina, reminding her politely, "When is the father coming?"There was a father noted on the papers, after all.Still, there was a brief flicker of coldness in Tina's eyes. "He isn't coming!""But are you really not going to wait?"The crematory assistant was a father himself, so he understood that he would be burdened with a lifetime of regret if he did not see hi

    Henry's glower faded, replaced by a tender smile as he answered without hesitation, "Okay!"With that, he turned and hurried out of the villa, choosing the daughter he had with Linda—abandoning Tina and Sophie once again.Tina stood where she was, her heart breaking as her arms tightened around the urn containing Sophie's ashes.She then gently patted it, like a quiet gesture to comfort her daughter.Ever since Linda returned from abroad with her daughter, Henry had given them his absolute undivided attention.It did not matter what time it was or what he was doing—he would be there with just a phone call.And while Tina had no issue with abandonment, her heart ached for Sophie.She was so sweet and kind, only for her father to hurt her time and time again!Fortunately, this would be the last.It would never happen again!-In the VIP ward of Jadelight Hospital, Linda was coaxing her daughter Rory.Then, watching as Henry entered, she exclaimed in surprise, "What are you do

    When Henry came to his senses, he growled at Tina with an icy tone that cut to the bone, "Have you lost your mind?!"Reaching out, Henry caught Tina's wrist before she could continue, glaring viciously at her.The sight of the man—who was always so haughty—changing completely for his beloved woman left Tina's eyes red.Bitterness welled up in her heart.And she had loved him for ten years!"Yes, I have. And I should've lost it a long time ago," she snapped and suddenly slapped Henry across the face!"It's over between us, Henry."She had wanted to say that since the moment her daughter died.And now, they would simply go their separate ways!She withdrew her hand, finding her palm numb as she had put her back into it.Henry's left cheek reddened visibly in return—it was the first time in his life that he had been slapped by a woman.Glaring at Tina with viciousness that was beyond description, he chuckled coolly. "Heh."Tina did not bother arguing and turned to leave—she kn

    As Henry hung up and left without hesitation, he snorted coolly at Tina. "Go on, do your best to stop Sophie from ever calling me again."However, he had just stepped out of the doorway when he heard an audible thud behind him.He turned in reflex and saw that Tina had collapsed to the floor."I warned you," he growled. "Don't you dare behave like a drama queen around me."Tina lay on the cold hard floor, not fully unconscious.Henry's words only sent chills down her gut, stinging her very bones.He obviously thought she was faking it just to get him to stay, as he only saw her as a vile woman who did not care who she hurt to get what she wanted.He still believed that Tina had deliberately drugged him on their anniversary to separate him from Linda. With that, she ousted Linda so that Linda went adrift abroad, giving birth prematurely to Rory and suffering all the pains of the world.And now, five years later, when Linda returned to the country with Rory, she told Sophie to fe

    As the air in the room heated up, Henry felt a fire converging in his groin as he moved up, pinning Tina beneath him.That was when she groaned, waking up from her nightmare.After she opened her eyes, she stared blankly at the ceiling of her bedroom for a while—the pain in her nightmare was so overwhelming that she failed to recognize reality for a second.Nonetheless, all her senses returned to her when she felt the breeziness over her chest. It was only then that she realized that she was laying on her bed, and Henry was undressing her!Glowering as her blood boiled, she did not hesitate to push him off, snapping, "Let go of me!"However, Henry was just getting started.If anything, he craved more instead of stopping.He might not love Tina, but even he had to admit that he desired her body.

    Linda's words were as suggestive as the man's clothes in the shopping bag, especially since the boxers were placed deliberately on top of the rest.She was clearly bragging to Tina that Henry had spent the night at her place.Moreover, as Tina turned away from the boxers, she saw Linda brushing her hair behind her neck, seemingly not realizing that she revealed the hickeys on it.So, she had done the deed with Henry last night. Unable to vent his libido with Tina, he ran straight to the other woman.They were quite vigorous, from the looks of it as well.While Tina felt slightly pricked that Linda was trying to hurt her, her gaze turned cool as she remembered her daughter.She slowly stood up, looking down loftily at Linda as she scoffed. "It's Henry's clothes, so return it to him yourself. I'm not a garbage truck."Linda was stumped—she did not expect this.Before she could react, she felt a chill emanating from behind.She turned to see that Henry was already standing there,

    Tina had loved Henry for ten years and knew his taste all too well.As she immediately recognized his kiss, her panic faded, giving way to coldness.She turned away, clearly resistant and avoiding his forceful kisses.That in turn left him furious, and he grabbed her jaw with his large hand, firmly turning her back to kiss her.It only repulsed Tina further—was he just trying to vent his rage for giving Linda grief?However, he was holding her down very firmly, and she could not escape. All she could do was clench her jaw, keeping his advances at bay and stop him from going any further.She flailed around more as well, even shoving at him, but the difference in strength between the sexes remained.She could not make him budge even as she pushed with all her strength, and he caught both her hands with just one of his, all while they moved even closer.So close, she could sense Henry's burning desire.Tina's body stiffened. She arched her back, trying to avoid him again, but the

    Tina was at once embarrassed and furious.Seizing the moment when Henry was distracted by Linda's call and eased his grip, she launched her knee forcefully into his crotch."Oof—"Henry grunted and lost his grip on Tina.She seized that moment to get away from him and got out of Henry's car.Then, holding tightly on her coat to hide her disheveled clothes while running to her car, she was still on edge until she locked the door.-Meanwhile, Henry lit himself a cigarette as he reclined against his seat.Both his eyes were following Tina, while still remembering the way she looked beneath himself.Her long hair disheveled, the hickeys he left bloomed like flowers in snow over her fair skin.It was as devilish as it was alluring, and Henry's expression darkened as he gulped, his Adam's apple bobbing obviously.He took a long, deep puff before exhaling, allowing the smoke to swirl around him, keeping his expression inscrutable.That was until Linda asked in concern out loud, "

    "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

"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.

    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

    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
