Tina looked like she had completely recovered, even smiling at John. "Sorry, I must have given you a fright."However, that smile only left John's chest tightening.Still, he did not say much and patted her head before taking her hand, which felt cold to the touch.Caught by surprise, Tina stared at their hands for seconds but did not pull away.Her heart felt so cold that she yearned a little for such warmth."Thank you, Dr. Urban," she said. "I'm going now."Nancy Urban nodded. "Call me anytime.""Okay." Tina nodded and left with John.Nancy watched them leave before returning to her office.When she was gone, Linda stepped out from behind the hallway, with Nancy's words ringing in her mind.Now, Linda was sure that Tina was chronically depressed, to the point that further shock could drive her to suicide.Linda sneered sinsitertly—her focus was on the word 'suicide', just as she would love to see how Henry was going to make amends to a dead person.Henry could only be he

John stood beside her, watching with a tenderness that seemed to melt.But more than that, he felt pained for her.He did not tell Tina that when he had sent his people to investigate the kidney meant for Sophie, someone had deliberately erased every piece of related information.And the one person who could do that was Henry, and no one else.That meant Henry wanted to protect Linda, no matter what it took.Meanwhile, Tina kept firing arrows until she was almost exhausted.Still, it somewhat cheered her up.Seeing that it was almost eleven, she said, "It's late. We should go.""Yeah." John took her hand again, and they left the indoor amusement park.As they returned to the car and he helped her with her seatbelt, he felt worried as he saw that the gloom did not fade from her eyes completely.Worried about leaving her by herself, he asked softly, "Why don't we go to my place?""What?"Tina turned sharply toward him, clearly shocked.John realized right away how ambiguous
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 270
Tina hung up without hesitation, but her phone jingled as the number sent a message: [Answer the call, or you'll regret it.]It was captioned with a picture of the graveyard where Sophie was buried, and Tina's mind seemed to go blank at that.The negative emotions that she had gone through great difficulty to restrain once again went into a frenzy.Her hands trembled so much that she could not hold on to her phone.Still, Tina took deep breaths, doing her best to compose herself.But before she could recover, another call came.Tina answered before she knew it, and Linda's face appeared right then.She was standing right in front of Sophie's grave, her eyes vicious as she snarled, "Come here alone, and don't tell anyone—or there won't be anything left of your bastard."She then flipped the camera around, and Tina immediately saw the familiar pink urn by her feet.It was the urn holding Sophie's ashes—Sophie loved pink, and Tina had personally picked it for Sophie, so there wou
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 271
On her knees, tears welled up in Tina's eyes as she begged, "Linda, I'm begging you… please give Sophie's ashes back to me."She could not hesitate when Linda had Sophie—what was dignity if she could protect Sophie?But as Linda listened, she was reminded of the other night when Tina had grabbed her hair and smashed her head on the ground until she bled, making her bow to Sophie.It was the greatest humiliation she had ever suffered, and she could murder Tina just remembering it.How dare she! And now that Linda had Tina where she wanted, she was not about to spare Tina!Snorting, Linda asked, "Is that how you ask someone for a favor? Who does that?"Tina met Linda's gaze, and then at the ashes urn Linda held.For Sophie's sake, Tina's fingers dug into the earth even as she pressed her head on the ground."I'm begging you… Please let Sophie go!" she cried."Oh, I guess you never really loved your bastard." Linda snorted sarcastically, raising the urn into the air, her intent

Love? What love?All the regret Henry felt toward Sophie right now was merely invoked by biological connection, and it would never win the birth of new children.When the time came, Henry would be busy giving all his attention to their children and certainly would not remember a bastard like Sophie."You hate me so much you can kill me, don't you?" Linda gloated at Tina, at once smug and haughty. "Well, I guess you must. I mean, I'd stolen your bastard's kidney on purpose so that she would die mid-surgery."And as her mother, it hurts the most because things could've gone right for you, no? If I hadn't stolen it, then your bastard's surgery would've been successful."Tut, tut… What a shame! She ended up dead because of me! And you, her mother who claims to love her so much, can't do anything to me!""You'll have your comeuppance, Linda!" Tina cried.She bit her lip so hard that she bled but did not feel any pain!She fought back her emotions so that Linda's words would not get
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 273
Linda watched as Tina was left devastated, kneeling in despair and falling apart, and continued, "You love Sophie very much, don't you? Can you bear to leave her alone in the afterlife? She's sick too—aren't you worried she'd be bullied?"So go join her—it's not like you can avenge her. Why live in pain when you could die? It's all over when you do. It won't hurt anymore, and you could see your dear Sophie again."Watching as all hope left Tina's face, leaving only a deathly paleness, Linda smiled savagely.The bitch was not going to live another day.She strode off, ready to leave, grinning in contempt as she reached Tina.That was just so easy—it was just one dead daughter, and Tina got chronic depression because of it.The heavens were truly on her side!To be honest, it would have been much harder to deal with Tina if she were fine.As Linda turned away, brushing her disheveled bangs as she started to leave, she did not expect Tina to suddenly spring to her feet.Glaring v

Tina paused, and it took her a while to remember that she had blocked Henry for a while.As such, she swiped through her block list, unblocked Henry, and called his number.He did not answer the first time or the second time."Hell, do you know what Henry was doing when you called him outside the operating room? He was in the same hospital, playing with Rory like nothing happened!"It's not like he never saw your calls—he just refused to answer, even though you had called so many times! If he had only answered once, then your bastard might have been saved!"Linda's words echoed in Tina's mind even as she kept calling Henry's number, but he answered on the fourth, asking in disbelief, "Tina?""Where are you?" Tina's voice was dead calm."What's the matter?" Henry's eyes lit up as he put down his glass of liquor."I want to see you. Where are you?" Tina's tone remained calm."The Dynasty. Where are you? I'll send Andy to pick you up," Henry replied.He would rather pick her up
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 275
The edge of the knife stabbed into Henry's abdomen even as Tina screamed with cutting spite, tearing deep into him until only the handle was protruding.Her eyes flared with despair and inconsolable heartache for Sophie.How devastated Sophie would be, if she knew that the father whom she loved so much killed her!Her heart breaking, Tina's tears gushed down her cheeks.Looking him in the eyes even as his face paled from the pain, she demanded, "You don't deserve Sophie's love at all!"When Linda told her Henry had a hand in Sophie's death too, Tina actually wondered if Linda was just lying to enrage her further.When Linda called her and forced her to go to the graveyard with Sophie's ashes and said all those things that broke her heart, Tina already knew that Linda had somehow found out about her depression and was breaking her will to force her into suicide.If Tina suffered a relapse and her sanity could not restrain her emotions, she would be overwhelmed by a flood of negat

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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 489
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 487
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 486
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 485
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 483
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 482
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
