Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 239
As Tina realized what Linda's smile meant, her eyes went red with rage.She knew she was right—Linda killed Madam Barnes!No longer able to think straight as she glared at Linda's smugness, she suddenly picked up a vase from a nearby shelf."You vile bitch! You'll pay for this!" she bellowed and threw it at Linda's head."Argh!!!" Linda screamed, promptly putting on a terrified look on her face.Henry quickly turned and saw Tina throwing the vase at Linda, the same way she had done to him the other day.Guided by instinct, he shielded Linda in his arms and raised his arm to block the oncoming vase.It actually bounced off his arm and crashed into pieces all over the floor in front of Tina.Several shards shot away, slicing into her thin pajama trousers and leaving a good number of cuts on her thin leg.Hearing the crash, Henry turned and was left watching as Tina strode forward, as if not seeing the shards all over the floor.His eyes widened, and he let go of Linda and rushe

Hitting Henry's hand repeatedly, Tina suddenly grabbed his collar, her whole body shaking as her eyes flared with spite. "You're worse than an animal, Henry Barnes! Linda killed your daughter, and now, the grandmother who raised you! And you're just letting her leave!"Henry glared at her in turn.Once again, she was sticking to her prejudice, even blaming Madam Barnes' death on Linda.However, she struck where it hurt the most.How could it not? Both Sophie and his grandmother were part of his family.But no matter how much it hurt, Tina did not get to accuse anyone of being a murderer just because she thought so! With that, Henry shoved Tina onto the chair, pulling off her hands from his collar and holding them down on the chair handles, looking her straight in the eyes.After she had thrown that vase on him and left him hospitalized the other day, he thought about everything that had happened over the past few months as he lay in bed.The way her attitude toward him had cha

Hysterical, Tina screamed, "Of course not! Linda stole the kidney meant for Sophie on purpose so that Sophie died on the operating table!"Henry opened his mouth, ready to say that it was impossible before he knew it.But it was on the tip of his tongue when he realized where they got Rory's kidney transplant, and he froze!As for Tina, she could not fight back her rage and grief as she remembered how tragic Sophie's life was, and how Sophie had died young on top of that.Tina's eyes were red even as she cried, "Sophie had suffered from her illness for so long, and she was this close to becoming healthy… But Linda is so vile that she had to cut off Sophie's lifeline! Don't I have the right to take a life for a life?!"Henry could not answer as he was still caught in terrible shock, suddenly profoundly terrified that the kidney he had stolen for Linda was the same one meant for Sophie.But in Tina's eyes, his silence was further proof of him doubting her, leaving her clenching her

Tina cried, "You feel for Sophie, don't you? You want to make amends with her, don't you? Then can't you just investigate the truth for her sake? I'm begging you, please!"She was not even hoping for him to trust her like Madam Barnes, who believed her even without evidence.All she wanted was for Henry to feel a faint ounce of doubt toward Linda, which in turn would spur him into investigating.She was only capable of that much—she would never uncover anything.But as long as Henry was willing, he would definitely find something and understand that she was not lying.It was Linda who had deliberately stolen the kidney meant for Sophie to kill her. But even after everything she said—even after she humbled herself to beg—he never agreed to investigate.It seemed that his love and trust for Linda had reached the point where even a small probing would defile the purity of that attachment.Tina's grip around Henry's collar suddenly loosened, and she collapsed limply on the chair,

There were many glass shards in Tina's foot, as she had stepped over them with her bare feet.But Tina never responded."Bite me if it hurts," Henry suddenly said quietly, holding his hand by her mouth.But Tina still did not respond.Carl began to extract the shards very gently, but it should hurt as the shards had cut deep into her flesh.However, Tina did not so much as grunt through it all as if she felt no pain, and it hurt Henry to look.-Madam Barnes' funeral was held at Barnes Ranch, and when a mournful Tina appeared in plain clothes, Whitney and Irene promptly showed up, stopping her at the front gates.Having just returned to the country, Irene was immediately snapping at Tina, "Go away! How dare you show up here after you killed Grandma!""Her death isn't my fault," Tina said very softly, not wanting to cause a scene at Madam Barnes' funeral."Not your fault?! No one but you is responsible for Grandma's death!" Irene kept snapping. "You knew she was in poor health
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 244
That was when Tina steadied herself and left his grasp, not pausing as she kept striding inside.Henry glanced at her scrawny figure as she left before turning back to Irene. "What did I say before?"Irene naturally knew what he was referring to—the last time she had called Sophie a bastard at the hospital, Henry slapped her and warned her very threateningly.And after being sent abroad to live on a restricted credit card and without her privilege as an heiress, hardship had humbled her enough to not mess with Henry.She slapped herself, but very gently. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have insulted Sophie."However, Henry kept glaring at her icily, and she had no choice but to slap herself again, this time really hard."If it wasn't for Grandma's funeral, it wouldn't just be two slaps," Henry growled icily.He turned and started to leave, only to stop before he headed inside to glare at Irene and Whitney again. "Sophie is my daughter, and Tina is her mother. That is never going to chan
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 245
The skies were getting darker, but Tina was driving around aimlessly after leaving Barnes Ranch.Following Madam Barnes' death, the boulder weighing on her chest became even heavier.Henry told her that if she had not accused Linda of murdering Sophie without evidence, Madam Barnes would not have gone after Linda and died from the aggravation. However, she knew that Linda definitely murdered Madam Barnes.But if—just if—she had not cried out her grief when she thought Madam Barnes was unconscious, then Madam Barnes would not know about Sophie's death, or that Linda murdered Sophie.Would Madam Barnes be alive if she had not gone after Linda? As for Sophie, if Tina had never been delusional about Henry and did not conjure the illusion that Sophie's daddy loved her, then maybe Sophie would not yearn for Henry so much, let alone expect his love.She would not have lied to wait for Henry, and her condition would not have worsened.And she would not have died.There were two voic

Tina was consumed by endless despair.As her body crashed into the bone-chilling water, she did not flail around like a person who had accidentally fallen into water.Having no will to live, she allowed herself to sink.It hurt to drown.Tina could clearly feel the air in her lungs running out, while water gushed in through her mouth and nostrils.Her lungs burned, and she felt like she was ripped apart.Her strength gradually left her, and she started to suffocate.Her consciousness muddled, she knew she was going to die.But before she blacked out, she seemed to see Sophie reaching out to her, just like five years ago, calling out to her sweetly, "Mommy."Tina's lips curled into a tender smile. "I'm here, Sophie."With that, she allowed the darkness to consume her as the last of her consciousness drained away.Would she see her baby again when she died? She really wanted to hug Sophie again…-Meanwhile, John Levine's car had stopped on the other side of the bridge.He

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—
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 519
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 518
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 517
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 515
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 514
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 512
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
