Chapter 193

Penulis: Angelica1
After seeing how sweet and adorable Sophie really was, and how he had hurt her so thoroughly because of his own prejudice, Henry really wanted to hug her and apologize.

Thankfully, there was plenty of time—he had the rest of his life to make up for those five years of neglect.

On the other hand, Linda was left watching as he left, her knuckles clenching and her nails digging deeply into her own flesh, her eyes flashing with utterly jealousy!

Sophie Barnes! Even in death, she was ruining her plans!

-

At the hospital, Tina was carefully wiping Madam Barnes' body and helping her change into fresh clothes.

Knowing that Madam Barnes always wanted to stay dignified, she combed her hair neatly.

The nurse tried to help, but Sam's wife stopped the nurse, telling her to work on something else.

This was Tina's gesture of affection for Madam Barnes, because she was a child who understood gratitude.

Madam Barnes had been good to her and genuinely cared for her, and she returned the favor w

    Henry leveled a cold glare straight at Tina as he said bluntly, "I want to see Sophie!"It was 'I want', and not 'I wish'—he was telling Tina that she did not get to argue.However, his demanding tone only left Tina's eyes flashing coldly, and she sneered as she retorted, "What gives you the right?"A blind fool who protected Sophie's murderer unconditionally had absolutely none!Henry thought that Tina was just accusing him of neglecting and abusing Sophie for five years since her birth, and so, he fought back his annoyance with Tina's tone, calmly reasoning, "I've seen the security footage at the villa. I now know that I was wrong about Sophie—she didn't push Rory when the girls had first met."The mention of that day made Tina remember.She had been worried and rushed over to Linda's house, and she immediately saw Sophie standing all by herself right beside the swimming pool and quietly shedding tears.That face, which was always smiling, was drenched in tears, and her little

    Tina should never have held out hope for Henry.Not one tiny bit!She began, "I told you—""Stop behaving like a petulant child!" Henry snapped, cutting her short. "Don't tell me that you won't let me see Sophie for the rest of my life!"His patience was almost running out. He had already admitted that he was wrong to neglect Sophie for five years, but it was not as if he could not correct it.He could make amends and offer Sophie the fatherly love she was owed, so why did Tina have to keep up her stubborn streak?!"You can hide Sophie for a couple of months, but do you think you can hide her for life?! I'm her father! You have no right to hide her from me! Quit stopping me from seeing her!"He was convinced that he just had to see Sophie and apologize to the child, and she would definitely forgive him.Sophie loved him, her daddy, very much after all.However, as Tina stayed silent, Henry got impatient and grabbed her hand, saying sternly, "Take me to Sophie now."Tina's e

    After Henry left, Tina stood where she was, her chest heaving.Henry's apology to Sophie not only stung her so much, but it also felt like a boulder on her chest, leaving her suffocating.She clutched her aching chest, wobbling as she leaned on the couch and pushed herself up, reaching with a shaking hand to get her pills from her handbag.She opened the cover and shook the bottle, but nothing was coming out.She had taken all her pills.Dropping the bottle, she slid limply to the floor, unable to control her thoughts while guilt snared her like a giant net.Tina really regretted moving Sophie so much. In a bid to spare Sophie the cruel truth that her father did not love her, Tina weaved the fairy tale that Henry loved her very much.If Tina had not, then Sophie would not have loved Henry nor suffered so much.It was all her fault.She was useless as Sophie's mother, exposing Sophie to all the suffering there was in life.Even after Sophie was gone, she could not do anything

    Standing before Sophie's gravestone, Linda's face contorted viciously as she glared at Sophie's tiny face on the gravestone.She was frustrated, so she would vent everything on the brat!She raised her foot, kicking the flowers and fruits that Tina had brought a couple of days ago, knocking everything all over the place and spitting as she kept kicking. "You bastard! You have to screw with me even after I killed you! Well, since you won't leave me in peace, I won't return the favor!"Your bitch of a mom went the extra mile to get you such a nice grave, huh? So that you can reincarnate to a better life?! Let's see how you're going to reincarnate now!"Linda laughed darkly as she arched her back and picked up the large bottle she brought, waving it at Sophie as she gloated, "Do you know what this is? It took me a lot of effort to get this dog's blood, and I've soaked a stack of special talismans in there."With these talismans and dog's blood, you won't rest in peace! You won't even

    Tina really put her back into it—despite using all her strength to struggle against Tina's grip, Linda could not win against Tina's rage-fueled strength.Her forehead was shoved down, hitting the ice-cold concrete floor and leaving her in tears of agony.Linda's eyes widened as her fury threatened to blow her top, and she bellowed, "You're crazy! I'm older than the bastard, and you make me bow to her?! Does she deserve such honor?!"Even as Linda forced her head up to glare ferociously at Tina, she could not care less about what she said in her rage, spitting every insult right in Tina's face!Smack! Smack! Tina's eyes flashed viciously at Linda calling Sophie a bastard, and she slapped Linda twice.Then, pulling Linda by her long hair, she looked into the other woman's eyes viciously. "She doesn't deserve it?! You killed Sophie! You could die bowing before her grave, and she still deserves that much!"Her voice was sinister like a vengeful spirit that had escaped hell, and she

    Linda pushed Tina with all her strength.Already drained when she was holding Linda down and making her bow, Tina was sent stumbling backward from the pain, missing her step and dropping to the ground.It gave Linda time to recover, and she pushed herself up with Sophie's gravestone.Fighting against the dizziness to straighten herself, her eyes flashed in rage as she watched Tina fall.That bitch! How dare Tina do this to her!Seeing the bottle of dog's blood in the corner of her eye, Linda smiled evilly and picked it up, quickly opening the bottle and not hesitating to pour it all over Sophie's gravestone!"No!!!"Tina had just gotten to her feet, and her mind could break as she watched.She tried to lunge at Linda, but she was already too late as the dog's blood splashed all over Sophie's gravestone.Her eyes widened, and Linda's vile threat rang in her ears. "With these talismans and dog's blood, you won't rest in peace! You won't even get to reincarnate!"Those words lef

    The chill of the winter wind cut to the bone, but Tina did not feel anything.She was on her knees in front of Sophie's tombstone, staring at Sophie's adorable little face in guilt.Even though the dog's blood had been wiped clean, the gloom that still shrouded her heart seemed to grow further.Her pain for Sophie's suffering and endless hatred for Linda had been growing in her heart ever since she knew that Linda had murdered Sophie.She wanted to make Henry see Linda and Rory's true nature, to make him care for Sophie and avenge Sophie.However, even after he learned that Tina was not responsible for what had happened five years ago, how angelic Sophie really was, and how Sophie had not pushed Rory in that pool, and that he was wrong in blaming Tina and Sophie for everything… All he offered was verbal, unrealistic promises.After all was said and done, he was still firmly on Linda and Rory's side, endlessly tolerating and sheltering them."Sophie… It's all Mommy's fault! I've

    In the end, Sophie was Henry's daughter—he would not let it slide.That must mean that Tina did not have solid evidence and had to suck it up because she had nothing.It also explained what she had done at Barnes Ranch just days ago!Now, it was really no surprise that Tina would expose Rory for not being Henry's biological daughter.She was not aiming to get Henry back—she wanted revenge for Sophie!And once Linda was sure that Tina had no proof and that the only witness was dead, she was slightly relieved.She should be coming up with her next steps tonight.She stopped halfway home to swap cars outside a mall.In it was a first aid kit that Henry had placed there for Rory, and she cleaned up her head wound.Still, the sight of herself bleeding left her glowering viciously.'Tina Smith, you bitch!' If Linda had not done her best to cushion the blow each time Tina shoved her head repeatedly on the ground, she would not just be bleeding—she might really die bowing in front

    The instant Tina tapped on the notification, she found Henry kneeling outside her door, motionless.She swiped through her phone and saw that most notifications were from Henry, with the first of many being sent at three in the morning.That meant Henry had driven straight to her place after leaving Rose Garden and knelt outside her door for almost four hours.But Tina remained unaffected.Remembering the video John had sent earlier, she had a hunch that Henry was outside after he became aware of Rory's true nature.She soon tapped out of the notifications and kept chatting with John since she found herself in a good mood first thing in the morning.When John said he had yet to have breakfast, Tina could read between the lines and did not play dumb, telling him that she would cook extra portions for him when he came over.John replied: [Already on my way.]Tina could not resist a smile. [Drive safe. See you soon.]After putting down her phone, she went about her daily routine—

    It was an especially long night, and every passing second was especially gruelling as Henry stayed on his knees outside Tina's door, like his heart was being stabbed.-When Tina woke up, she noticed that John had just texted her a minute ago.[Are you up?]Tina smiled ever so faintly as she replied: [Mornin'.][There's a video you should watch.][Okay.]While waiting for the video to be sent to her phone, she noticed many notifications from her alarm system.It was the first time this had happened since she moved in, and she was about to tap on it when John's file was downloaded.Tina tapped on the video first and immediately recognized that it was taken outside Rsoe Garden when she tapped on it.A familiar car was outside Linda's villa—it was Henry's.Tina's gaze cooled as she looked on.Yesterday was Sophie's death anniversary and also Rory's birthday.And given how much Henry doted on Rory, it was not hard to see that he went to the Rose Garden after visiting Sophie's

    As Henry's car soon disappeared in the night, Rory was left behind and too exhausted to give chase.She lay sprawled on the ground, watching as Henry left her, and her body's warmth slowly faded.Her gaze was endlessly horrified and helpless.Was he really going to leave her?-After leaving Rose Garden, Henry drove straight to Tina's apartment, having paid a hefty sum to buy the adjacent units to hers after finding out that she had moved there.He drove into the car park but stayed downstairs.The apartment complex was very quiet as it was three in the morning, but his heart could not quiet down at all.After all, he had been horrified since the moment he exposed Rory's two-faced nature.It was so obvious, but he just did not see it!He really was too overjoyed from the reunion when Linda showed up, passing herself off as Orange.The delight of the lost and found was just too much, and he cared even more for Linda when she told him that Mama Orange was dead, and how much su

    It was such a horrible sight that Henry eased his foot off the gas pedal before he knew it, and his car clearly slowed.To Rory, it was a ray of hope—just as she thought, he loved her and could not really bear to leave her.He must be heartbroken to see how much she loved him and chased him until she got hurt.With that thought, her utterly discouraged spirit was once again soaring.So what if Sophie was his real daughter?! She was dead! And all a dead person could do was lay six feet under, unable to do a thing!But Rory was different—even if she was not connected to Henry by blood, she was alive.That meant she could sweet-talk him, whispering nice words to cajole him.And what could dead Sophie do about that?Hence, Rory found renewed strength despite being exhausted and started crawling toward Henry's car, bawling as she did.She had a clear objective and did not care that her hands and knees were scraped through."Daddy… Look at me… It hurts so much… Daddy…"As Rory g

    Henry paused as he turned and suddenly turned toward Rory.Despite her leveling a miserable look at Henry with her eyes swollen from tears, he was still not relenting.In fact, he was endlessly cold as he glared at her with a cool look that cut to the bone."I'm telling you one last time—don't call me Daddy, you hear?"Rory had only seen him give Tina and Sophie that look before and had never expected him to look at her the same way now.She was left trembling endlessly, her lips parting as she really wanted to call out to him and sweet-talk him like she always did.But that icy glare left her speechless, and she could only watch as Henry turned and strode off, his footsteps soon fading into the distance.Did he really hate her now? Was he leaving her?Even as the thought struck her, she shook her head repeatedly!No! Henry could not leave her! She could not lose him! "Daddy!" She finally called out again as she leapt out of bed and started running without putting on her sho

    However, was Rory really innocent?Henry might have believed Linda if he had not seen what Rory did with his own eyes—how malicious she looked when she cursed Sophie, and how vile the words she breathed were!Just remembering the sight left him shuddering.Not even a normal adult should have been capable of such vile words, and Rory was only seven!But what frightened Henry the most was how she was once again the good girl Rory as soon as she turned and saw him.She could switch between her personalities as if it was second nature, just like what Linda always did behind his back.The phrase 'the apple doesn't fall far from the tree' really came to mind!Why could he not just see that from the start?!Rory had grown up by Linda's side, and Linda was a mother who was so immaculate with her pretensions.With such influence, would Rory have been all that different?"Adopt Rory, you say?" Henry breathed so quietly that no one could tell what he was really feeling just then.But s

    Linda already had some choice words in mind for Rory after Henry never showed up today.So, her eyes were flaring in annoyance when she opened them, as Rory made such a loud ruckus past midnight, waking her up.She was ready to give Rory a beating as she moved from her bed to her wheelchair and headed to the next room.That was when she heard Henry's voice.She did not rush inside, however, and eavesdropped outside, cursing Rory's incompetence when she realized what just happened! Rory could not even do one thing right and had to let Henry catch her cursing that brat!At this point, Linda was well aware that any chances she had of getting back together with Henry depended entirely on Rory, so she must not let Henry become disappointed in Rory.Rory was her trump card. And if she lost her trump card, she had no shot of getting Henry back.And how could she accept something like that?!She had stayed by his side, putting up an act for years! How could she just allow herself to

    It had never crossed Henry's mind that Rory was lying.He was prejudiced and had absolutely fought with Sophie, insisting endlessly that Rory would never lie.But was Sophie lying just because Rory did not?At this very moment, Henry did not even dare to think about how many lies Rory had told him over the years.And because he had absolute faith in Rory, how many times he had glazed over the facts and blamed Sophie!"Daddy…" Rory was truly terrified now, clutching her cheek where Henry slapped her in disbelief while her tears welled up in her eyes.In truth, Henry did not hit her that hard—he was holding back, compared to the times her mother had slapped her.But her heart hurt.Her daddy… The daddy she loved so much, the daddy who spoiled her so much and never raised his voice at her, slapped her because of Sophie!He did not just forget her birthday because of Sophie—he even struck her now!But she did not blame him.It was all Sophie's fault—and she hated Sophie even m

    Rory asked, "Daddy? Is that my birthday present?"At the same time, she knew very well that if Henry saw what that straw doll really was, he would be absolutely furious.That was why he must not let him see at any cost.However, Henry was still glowering as he threw the gift aside, taking a step forward and glaring at her menacingly. "Show it to me!""Daddy…"More tears gushed from Rory's eyes, as if Henry terrified her.And yet, she gingerly reached out, tugging on the hem of Henry's shirt, chirping sweetly, "Daddy, you're scaring me. Don't look at me like that."At that moment, she was once again the Rory that Henry was so familiar with.Mature and obedient.Kind and innocent.Guileless and harmless.But Henry could not forget about the Rory he saw just now.And seeing that she kept trying to manipulate him, he lost all patience and pushed her aside, while reaching for the blanket with his other hand."Daddy! Don't look!"Rory cried as she lunged over in a panic to stop
