Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 148
"No!!!"Tina shirked with gut-wrenching despair, murmuring, "Sophie… Sophie…"Then, she leapt out of bed and rushed to the window, her hand outstretched and not caring that half of her was outside the window.She did not care—she just wanted to protect Sophie.But she was too late, as the necklace arched through the air and landed on the gleaming surface of the pond, sinking beneath.Henry's heart almost leaped out of his throat. "It's the fifth floor! Are you trying to kill yourself?!"He did not expect her to get so crazy, and she was lucky that he had caught her before she fell and pulled her back inside.He held her waist firmly, glaring angrily while she continued to be hysterical.She would rather die for a shitty necklace?! Who on earth gave it to her?! Why did it matter so much?!But even before he could ask, Tina pushed him off with hatred, sending him slamming violently against the windowsill.She did not look at him twice when she was worried about Sophie and dashe

Presuming it to be some lover's quarrel, the onlookers started to audibly discuss the matter among themselves.Feeling like a circus animal, Henry scowled and snarled through his teeth, "Are you done?! Going that far for crap—""Shut up!" Tina bellowed, cutting him short as her chest heaved from his endless insults. "Don't you dare insult that necklace again! It's not crap, it's—"Before she could say 'Sophie', her agitated state broke her and she blacked out, spinning before almost collapsing.Henry's face dropped, and he promptly scooped her up in his arms, growling as she shrugged, "I don't care what it is—it doesn't matter to me. But as for you… are you going to stop, or do you want me to order a sedative?"As Tina met his impatient glare, her heart felt like it would break.That much was true—Sophie had never mattered to him in life, let alone her remains!Still, seeing that Tina was not fighting, Henry carried her back to her room.Tina did not struggle because she was to

Linda knew that something was wrong when Henry suddenly left her room.And to no surprise, he soon drove off.When she called to ask, he said that he was busy and told her to get some rest, then hung up before she could say more.He did not answer when she called him again.Ever since she showed up with that pendant, she was suddenly his beloved woman, and he put her above all else and gave her everything.He was cold and indifferent, but he treasured her because of a childhood promise.He would answer her calls, no matter when or where.But lately, he was not quickly answering her calls, and on more than one occasion.And now, he even refused to answer her call.She refused to believe it and even excused his actions.But now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she had to believe it.Henry had really left her for Tina's sake.That was not all either—he was treating Tina with such tenderness! The same tenderness that should only be hers!'Tina Smith!!! You really know h

Gently lifting Tina's chin, Henry kissed her eagerly.He did not want to wake her up, so he restrained himself, his lips gently brushing and nibbling hers.However, he was soon dissatisfied with those little bites and wanted more.Unable to stop himself, he opened her parted lips and pressed his tongue inside, panting harder as he kissed her even fiercer.Soon, the heat began surging into his loins, and he could not resist pulling her closer, his hands moving as he pinned Tina beneath himself.But as the sparks of passion were about to fly, Tina suddenly opened her eyes.Still groggy, she stared blankly at him for a moment, but her visage quickly turned cold as she realized what was happening.She had no idea how she was sleeping so soundly, only that Henry was taking advantage of her again.And after what had happened last night flashed in her mind again, she honestly had no idea what gave him the confidence to touch her!Furious, she did not hesitate to slap him across the f

At a certain kindergarten in Jadelight, Linda was standing in a camera blind spot and watching the three children who had bullied Rory before indifferently.At her incitement, they strode up to Rory with a purpose in their step.Rory was hanging her head unhappily as she headed to her classroom.But as she walked past a flowerbed, someone suddenly pushed her, sending her wobbling and landing miserably on her stomach.Tears welled up in her eyes as her palms were cut, but she did not bawl right away like the other children because she knew how much Linda hated that unless Henry was with them.After all, when Henry was around, he would care for and be nicer to Linda, so Linda would give her head pats. But when Henry was away, Linda would frown at her and walk away in disdain.Not wanting Linda to despise her, Rory slowly became disciplined.As long as Henry was not around, she would fight back her tears—or if push came to shove, she would bite her lip, breathing quiet sniffles a

For the boy, what he said was right, and that meant he was not slandering Rory.That meant he was right.On the other hand, Rory was clearly shocked.Her parents had never shared a room—the only time they did was when Linda was helping her bathe and told her to make Henry stay.She had cried then, pleading for Henry to do so, but Henry had left after she fell asleep.That night, Linda really snapped and even hit her, calling her useless.And seeing her shock, the boys were even more sure that they were right, and one even thought of how his mother insulted his father. "Your daddy and your mommy aren't married! Your mommy must be a homewrecker!""Homewreckers are wicked women! Their daughters are wicked children too!""My mommy isn't a homewrecker! I'm not a bastard!"Hearing the children insult Linda, Rory mustered the strength, out of nowhere, to kick away the boy on top of her and wrestle against the other boys.She refused to let them insult Linda!Even though Linda was b

While the school doctor tended to Rory's injuries, the teacher found out what had happened and told Linda everything when she arrived.As the other students' parents had yet to arrive, the school doctor told Linda, "I suggest taking Rory to the hospital for an X-ray. Don't worry—the school will handle this! You should hurry, to put your mind at ease.""Okay!"Linda appeared worried as she held Rory like Rory was the most important thing to her in the world. "I'll be leaving right now, but neither me nor her father will let this go unpunished!"With that, Linda carried Rory out of the infirmary as the teachers watched, gently placing Rory into the car seat and giving her a peck on her pale cheek. "It's alright, Rory. I'll take you to the hospital right now."Flooring the gas pedal, Linda then sped out of the kindergarten toward the hospital.Rory was sweating buckets even as she groaned, "Mommy, my tummy hurts…"Children were extra reliant on their parents, instinctively being ne

Henry assured Linda, "Calm down. Rory's going to be fine as long as I'm around."And with that, he hung up and quickly called several specialists to the hospital.While his attention was all on making calls for Linda and Rory, he never saw Tina standing nearby, watching as he worried over Rory.Her eyes were colder than the winter temperatures outside, but she did not stop to watch as she headed outside to the hospital pond.-Soon, Linda's car stopped outside the hospital, and she saw Henry waiting with several specialists by his side. She opened the door and stumbled as she got out.As if she had only just seen Henry then, her eyes were teary. "Henry…"She then opened the backseat door to show him Rory's pale face."Daddy…" She murmured, her tiny, miserable appearance left Henry grimacing in pain.As the doctors went up and carried Rory out of the car and put her on a stretcher, Henry took Rory's icy hand in his while gently wiping off her sweat. "It's alright, Rory. Daddy's

Henry stubbornly pressed, "Answer me. Did you say yes?"Tina was tired from punching and kicking and was left panting with her back against the door.There was the faint scent of blood in the air, as she ruptured the scalpel wounds she had left on him before.But Henry did not care and kept asking, "Answer me, Tina.""Yes!" Tina snapped icily. "Listen close and listen well—we're never getting back together, because I'll go out with anyone but you! Now get out of my house!"She really did not want to entertain his nutcase tendencies, but he was clearly not going to give up.And she was already exhausted from hitting him.But even if she was unsure that she would end up with John, she was dead sure that she would not get back together with Henry, not when he had indirectly murdered Sophie!And her cold glare left Henry's heart breaking, as it did everytime she looked at him that way after he found out he was Orange.How could his Orange look at him like that?"No, you can't get

Tina was clearly in a bad mood because Henry showed up at the graveyard.Understanding as ever, John never asked her again when he took her home.However, she did not get out of his car right away and stared at John as if she had plenty to say.She knew that he was good to her, but she did not have the courage to love again after how tragically things ended with Henry.It really was once bitten twice shy, what with all the sacrifices she made."Don't worry about it. I was just too impatient—I'll wait as long as you need," John told her.He had already waited for so long anyway."John…" Tina sighed—the nicer he was to her, the more it hurt her.John shook his head and undid her seatbelt. "Just get some rest. Don't worry about it."Tina gave in and got out, and he went upstairs with her, watching her shut the door before leaving.Inside, Tina's mind was a mess as she leaned against the door.She never thought of starting a relationship over the last two years, and she was unsu

Sophie did not need such fatherly love given out of charity!However, Henry did not take offense with Tina's cool attitude and put the gifts he brought in front of Sophie's grave. "I bought these for Sophie.""She doesn't need them," Tina snapped as she threw everything Henry brought away. "Give it off to your dear Rory—don't disgust Sophie."Henry pursed his lips as everything he picked was strewn all over the place.He knew that Tina despised Rory and did his best to avoid being seen with Rory but ran into Tina tonight anyway.And John was firmly on Tina's side. "You don't have to worry about Sophie, Mr. Barnes—I'll buy anything she likes.""Don't bother. Sophie's my daughter." Henry scowled, as John was ready to be Sophie's stepfather."So you're aware of that fact?" John scoffed, barely hiding his sarcasm. "Anyone who didn't know better would think that Rory is really your daughter!"He certainly found out how much Sophie had suffered because of Rory after what happened at

Once she saw how much the assistant was bringing, Rory's eyes lit up as she rushed over, exclaiming in delight, "Are these all for me, Daddy? I love them! Thank you! You're the best!"She was really happy.Just as she thought, she held first place in Henry's heart—she had not even picked anything, and he had already picked so many expensive, pretty gifts.She could already imagine the envious looks on her classmates' faces when she showed them.That was when Henry said, "These are for Sophie. Pick anything else—anything you like."He had already told Rory before they entered the toy shop—she could pick whatever she liked, and he would buy it for her, but whatever he picked was for Sophie.He really had no idea what else he could do for Sophie aside from this.Over the last two years, he bought a ton of stuff—some were kept in the villa, while the others were taken to Sophie's grave.He owed Sophie so much in life that he had even less idea what he could do to make things right

However, Rory had no idea what she should say to stop Henry from checking the cameras and could not respond in any other way aside from panic."Yes, Mr. Barnes…" The store owner recognized Henry since it was not his first time there and called for an assistant to get the security footage.However, the assistant appeared exasperated when she was told which area it was.Glancing at the owner and noticing Henry's menacing glare, she braced herself as she said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Barnes… Those cameras were broken two days ago."While Henry frowned at those words, John did not expect such an outcome either. But without the security footage, more words were pointless, so he merely shot Rory a cool glare before taking Tina's hand and strode out.Henry glared at their linked hands, the air turning cold around him as the assistant and the owner stood nearby in quiet fearful silence.On the other hand, Rory was clearly relieved when told that there was no footage—she almost had a heart at

Staying patient, Henry said, "I had that princess gown tailor made for Sophie back then, but Rory mistakenly thought it was meant for her and wore it. The one I brought to Maple Park was a different one—I had the tailor make another, and it wasn't the one Rory had worn."He explained all that, hoping to set the record straight, though his tone soon changed. "Rory's just a child, Tina. No matter how upset you are, you shouldn't lay a finger on her."John's visage turned cold. "Before you accuse Tina, why don't you ask Rory what she said that Tina had to go that far?"Henry turned toward Tina right then—was it not because of the doll?Tina had already despised Rory because of Sophie's gown, and he understood that Tina would not like Rory because of Linda.But John was saying that there was a different story?Henry looked downward at Rory and asked, "What did you say?"As Rory knew Henry had always believed that she was an honest child, Rory leveled him a look of grief. "I didn't s

Rory glowered.Tina dared to hit her?! She would show Tina!Just like whenever Sophie had upset her when she was still alive, Rory always had a way to make Henry hate Sophie even more!With that in mind, she burst into tears. "Argh!!! Daddy…"She was so loud that Henry heard her all the way at the cashier, and his face dropped as he turned toward her call.Still, his eyes lit up when she saw Tina.However, he soon saw John standing so close beside Tina that their shoulders were touching, and his eyes narrowed coldly, his stomach squirming uneasily.That was not the proper social distance between men and women, but Tina was clearly not uncomfortable.That could only mean that she could accept John being so close.And Henry strode toward them before he knew it, ready to split them up."Daddy…"Once he was near enough, Rory turned and threw herself into his arms, as she was the first to notice his arrival.As she wrapped her arms around his waist, she looked up to show him her

Tina's expression darkened upon seeing Rory, whom she despised so much. "Give it back!" she snapped coolly, holding out her hand.Rory promptly hid the doll behind herself, her eyes gleeful as she giggled, "Why should I? You didn't pay for it. I'll get Daddy to pay for it right now! You know that my daddy will always give me anything I want. Who do you think you are, trying to take my stuff?"She even imitated Linda's mannerisms just to upset Tina, putting emphasis on 'my daddy' just to rub it into her face.It was something she had always prided herself with.So what if Sophie had Henry's blood? She would always be more important to Henry than Sophie.Sophie would never win against her!That was when John just bought the drinks and saw Rory snatching the doll from Tina outside the toy shop, even spouting those nonsensical words.He strode up, growling darkly, "Didn't your mother teach you about 'first come, first served'? Give it back!"He really would not have argued with a

And seeing how sad Tina was, John felt doubt—should he really tell Tina that he had seen a girl that really resembled Sophie abroad?Even if he was just driving past the young girl, he was very sure that the girl's face was identical with Sophie's from photos two years ago, albeit with a larger face and without that silly sweet smile she used to have.She was in another car, but her gaze was colder than what one would expect of a child around seven.After that encounter, John sent everyone he had to look but failed to find the girl again.But he found nothing, so John thought it inappropriate to tell Tina recklessly.With hope came disappointment, and with disappointment came more pain.He could just keep looking on his own and then tell Tina later.And caught in her own misery, Tina never noticed the twitch in John's eyes.Even after the movie was over and she calmed down, her eyes were still red.John held her hand and led her outside, and he noticed that her hands were cold
