Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 289
Though the care worker promptly caught Henry and helped him back to his bed, Henry did not lie down."Henry! Are you trying to kill me?!"Linda was teary-eyed as she stared at Henry's stomach, where blood was seeping out.It was as if Henry did not notice her at all, however, as all he could think about was what he had just heard on the news.Holding himself steady against the bed, he picked up his phone to call Andy, instructing him to double the search for Tina.Once he hung up, he called out to the bodyguards outside. "Take me to the bridge."Roger Barnes had been concerned that Tina might come after Henry again, so he had Andy arrange for these bodyguards.Though Linda said nothing when Henry called Andy to double the search efforts, that was because she knew very well that it had been almost ten hours and there was no chance Tina would survive.Even if they doubled the search, all they would find was a corpse, and the dead never posed a threat.Linda certainly felt cathar

"No, sir."Andy's voice was exhausted—he had gone three days and nights without sleeping much.After a long silence, Henry said quietly, "You can stop now." He closed his eyes with a look of anguish, feeling like a chunk of his heart had gone missing.-Two years later…"Passengers of flight CZ3491, please proceed to the terminal for boarding…"Hearing the call over the PA system, Tina got up, pulling along her little suitcase and headed toward the terminal.As she boarded her flight and took her seat, a young girl around five approached her.As the girl passed Tina, she slipped and fell.Tina reached out to catch her before she knew it, steadying the girl, although she dropped her ice cream on Tina's wrist.Her parents had taught her well—once Tina helped her to her feet, she nodded at Tina and said in her sweet voice, "Thank you, ma'am."Then, noting that she had dirtied Tina's clothes, she wiped it for Tina. "I'm sorry, ma'am…""It's alright."Tina could not help reme
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 291
Just as Henry looked up, a middle-aged tour guide raised his little flag, smiling as he led the tour group inside.The flag just happened to cut off his line of sight from John and Tina as they strode past him, but he seemed to sense something anyway.Still, he was about to turn when a sweet voice called out, "Daddy!"It was Rory, running toward him after spending two weeks at fall camp.Henry dropped to a crouch, catching her like he used to when she was younger."I missed you, Daddy," Rory chirped, hugging his neck.As Henry did not stop spoiling her over the last two years, she loved him even more.When she had first met Henry, Linda had told her to curry his favor and make him like her.She did so, so that Linda was happy.But now, she really loved him and wanted him to stay as her daddy and her daddy alone.That was why Rory was so happy that Sophie was dead, because that meant she could have her daddy to herself."Mr. Barnes."Rory's teacher came up to greet Henry res
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 292
Although the two ladies soon stopped talking, Linda's fingers clenched around her wheelchair handles at the mention of Madam Barnes.She really did not expect that despite being dead, that hag still delayed her from reaching her ultimate goal for three years.Tina overheard the commotion, and her eyes narrowed coldly.John immediately noticed and squeezed her hand, looking at her worriedly while gently calling her name. "Tina."He was worried that Henry and Linda's public display of affection would upset Tina, as she loathed them for causing Sophie's death and driving her over the brink.Not only was Sophie's death a source of inconsolable anguish for Tina, but the fact that her murderers lived happily hurt Tina.John could not help but worry.Nonetheless, Tina turned away from Henry and Linda to smile at John. "I'm fine."Her smile was faint, but her expression was calm—Henry and Linda did not cause her agitation.While relieved, it still pained John to see Tina like that.S
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 293
John had heard that Tina lost her childhood memories, but Mrs. Smith recognized her immediately.After mother and daughter were reunited, Mrs. Smith had been constantly staying at Tina's side, tending to her and helping her pull herself together.According to Tina, Mrs. Smith had been looking for her all this time—starting from where they were separated to other places they had been, but she could never find Tina.Even Tina was left pondering why Mrs. Smith had never tried to use modern technology to find her, with how advanced the internet was these days.Still, while Tina was unaware, John could tell that Mrs. Smith was worried that Tina would be found.And now, Tina had contacted him because Mrs. Smith was ill.-After they got to the parking lot and John helped Tina with her seatbelt, they drove straight to the graveyard where Sophie was buried.John often visited over the past two years.After Tina's supposed death, he came to check and saw that Sophie's grave lay untouch
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 294
Mrs. Smith was sick, and they urgently needed the money, so she had no choice but to call John.She knew that John was willing to give her money, but she could not in good conscience burden him with her own responsibilities.John did not push her, but he did not take back the card either. "Just keep it for emergencies."Tina put it in her purse but had no intention of using it.After Tina cooked dinner and they ate together, John was doing the dishes when she leaned against the wall and said, "There's a favor I need to ask."Hearing that, John's gloom from Tina refusing his help faded as his eyes lit up. "What is it?"Even if he knew that Tina was not at fault, he would still rather not have her keep him at arm's reach, because that would mean he never reached her heart.All she showed him was only gratitude—not even liking, let alone love.But no matter what she asked, he would get it done, even if it was impossible."Can you send my designs to Helen Moore?" Tina asked.Hele
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 295
Even as Henry's eyes stay fixed Tina, his fingers clenched around his wine glass, a storm raging in his heart that seemed to have gone placid for two years.There was no hiding the blazing delight in his eyes as he looked at Tina.She was alive.That was good.As he was not hiding his excitement, Linda looked on, barely able to hide her jealous glare.That bitch had to come back alive and tempt Henry as soon as she did.What a bitch!On the other hand, Tina noticed Henry's stare but did not look his way as she walked straight toward Helen.Now, all eyes were on her, watching as she suddenly stopped in front of Linda.As Tina paused, everyone turned toward Linda again, and they remembered how Linda had eagerly made her way toward Helen even before Helen had finished her announcement.Talk about embarrassing!Even if the rest of them had unanimously agreed that Linda would win, such a blunder left everyone amused, and their smirks of contempt left Linda hanging her head, her f
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 296
Henry did not even look at Linda as he said quietly, "Andy's outside. Ask him to take you home."Linda was left seething—was she supposed to leave alone?!Did Henry not get the hint, or was he actually playing dumb?!Linda clenched her knuckles, but she did not dare to snap at Henry and turned her rage on Tina.If Tina never came back, Linda would have been getting along fine with Henry!Linda then glanced at a junior designer, who quickly approached Tina as if they were old friends, gossiping right in front of Helen's face. "Tina, Mr. Barnes has been staring at you ever since you arrived. And it's such a dirty look… confess now, who is he to you?"Linda looked on, waiting for Helen to despise Tina and call off their partnership.Everyone knew that Helen had a strong sense of morals and despised third-wheelers.Now that Linda and Henry's relationship was official, if Helen suspected Tina of tempting Henry…Linda smiled as Helen turned toward Henry after hearing the junior des

Linda kept rambling on. "I was just too hurt and said those things in the heat of the moment!"It isn't what I really think—I feel guilty hurting Jimmy, but I had no choice! You know that Rory is my life!"Rory is only seven—her life has just begun! But she was in the terminal stage and had no kidney donor and could die anytime."You know how much my heart hurts seeing her suffering from her illness."I had tried other other options, but I know Tina hates me, which was why they had deliberately denied Rory!"I begged them, only for Tina to humiliate me, making me bow to her in public! I even did it, but they still refused!"What can I do?! I can't just watch Rory die…."Henry did not take her side over her words and snapped coolly, "Even so, you don't get to hurt Jimmy! You know that he has a tournament!""Yes, I do!" Linda nodded. "But if I didn't do it, would you have approached him?! You can be considerate about his dreams, but not me!"I know I'm selfish, ignoring national

All Linda could think about was what Henry was doing there when she saw him there with Jimmy.When did he get there, and how much of her conversation with Tina did he hear?Linda was simply unsure, so she did not speak recklessly, instead quickly adjusted her emotions.As she looked up, she made sure Henry had a clear line of sight of her cheeks—flushed and swollen from Tina's violent slaps.At the same time, tears were quickly welling up in her eyes to evoke Henry's sympathy, while she called out miserably, "Henry…"Her tears rolled out at the same time, a perfect picture of a victim that evoked sympathy.She was used to doing this and knew that it would never fail to dupe Henry.He believed he owed her and could not bear to see her sad.And to no surprise, as soon as Henry saw her shedding tears, he strode up to her.Despite being delighted, Linda made herself look even more aggrieved, as she knew that Tina still could not budge her place in Henry's heart.She just had to c

As Tina kept ranting, she kept slapping Linda like she had lost her mind.And Linda had seen Tina behave like that two years ago, when she had used Sophie's ashes to drive Tina to suicide!Did this mean that Tina's crippling depression had relapsed?Perhaps the slap had left Linda stunned and less sharp-minded, as she could not help feeling thrilled at the thought.She had heard that depression was incurable, and strong trauma would cause a relapse.And once it did, it would be worse than before.Tina had been suicidal two years ago, and even if she did not kill herself with this relapse, she might just go crazy.And if Tina was crazy, Henry would never be with her even if he fell for her.Linda forgot her pain right then and leveled a smug, venomous look at Tina as she gloated sinisterly. "So what if it was me?! What can you do?! Do you have proof?!"You're really angry, aren't you?! Because Jimmy Jones is crippled and in a lot of pain?!"He's always wanted gold, but lost a

"No," the officer replied. "It was an inmate named Zach Foster. The culprit was Foster's acquaintance, and Foster talked him into it."Foster confessed to it when we interrogated him, and he said he wanted revenge because he hated Mr. Jones for not donating his kidney to his daughter. He wanted to hurt Mr. Jones so that he couldn't take part in the tournament and suffer."The motive made sense, and there was a confession, so the case was closed right then.However, just hearing Zach's name mentioned gave Tina an answer—Linda had planned everything.Remembering the things Linda had spat at her back at the hospital, it was clear that Linda wanted Jimmy's kidney no matter what it took because it would make her suffer.As Tina looked at Jimmy's wounded hand after the call ended, she felt her heart tighten, her nails digging into her palm as her knuckles clenched. After calming herself for a while, she said, "Get some rest. I'll visit Mom.""Travel safe," Jimmy told her.Tina nodde

All of Linda's plans had just gone to ruin!A cool voice spoke behind her just then. "Disappointed that it wasn't me?"Hearing that it was Jimmy, Linda almost blurted, "Yes! Very much so!"Fortunately, she bit her lip and stopped herself just in time, subtly taking a deep breath to stop herself from speaking her mind.As she composed herself and adjusted her expression, she noticed that Henry was watching her.And she could not arouse his suspicion, or he might realize that she was behind Jimmy's accident.Instead, she forced a smile as she turned toward Jimmy, exclaiming in a sickly sweet voice, "No way!"I'm really just relieved, and this is naturally the best outcome. Rory's going to be fine, while you and Tina won't feel bad about this…"She then leveled a pointed look at Tina and continued, "After all, I've done Tina wrong regarding Sophie. I can understand why she hates me and doesn't want Rory to grow up healthy…"Jimmy snapped, "Shut up already, two-faced bitch!"He t
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 455
Tina looked up, unable to hide her shock.Henry looked downward at her in turn, his tone earnest, "It's true. I won't lie to you—as soon as I was told there's another viable donor, I promptly changed donors."I don't know what you and Jimmy take exception to, but I wouldn't have asked him if I had a choice. It was never my intention to coerce him."His gaze was penetrating, as if to peer through Tina's eyes and into her mind, attempting to understand her behavior.He never wanted Jimmy's kidney from the start—if he did, he would not have told them and afforded them a choice.He continued to search for another viable donor after that and had to coerce Jimmy because circumstances compelled him to."What I said in Jimmy's room wasn't all true." He sighed as he continued, "I'd never hurt you knowingly, let alone Jimmy, who's your good friend."He had said what he said because he knew Jimmy cared about Tina, and that was his only choice if he wanted to make Jimmy sign the organ donat
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 454
Grinning smugly, Linda continued, "I murdered your daughter, and not only could you not do anything about that, but even your best friend has to give up his kidney for my daughter! Hurts to think about it, no? But what can you do about it? The more it hurts you, the more it pleases me!"Tina's chest was heaving, but she did not waste her breath—she kicked Linda to the floor and walked over Linda as she lay sprawled on the floor.But just as she went over, the lights turned off—the surgery was over.As the doctor stepped out, Tina grabbed his arm and demanded worriedly, "Where's the donor? Is he alright?""Don't worry—the surgery was a success. Both the donor and patient are fine."Tina sighed in relief, hearing that Jimmy was fine.That was when Henry stepped out, having heard her.Seeing that it really was her, Henry said, "Don't worry, Jimmy is—""Shut up!"However, Tina's hatred flared even though she heard that Jimmy was fine, and she did not even give Henry a chance to fi

Tina mentioned Sophie on purpose to invoke what little humanity Henry had, just to catch him off guard so she could grab the organ donation form and tear it into pieces.However, Henry caught her hand before she could reach it and said quietly, "Sorry, Tina."Before she could pull with her other hand, Henry struck her nape with the side of his palm.Tina's eyes widened in disbelief at Henry, and her vision turned dark as she fell limply in Henry's arms."Henry Barnes!!!" Jimmy bellowed, not expecting Henry to attack Tina."She's fine! Waste more time and Rory dies, and everyone will suffer!" Henry snapped at him as he put Tina on the couch before pulling off Jimmy's blanket and placing it over her.His touch was gentle, but his words sent a chill down the spine, as if his patience toward Tina was built entirely on the basis that Linda and Rory were fine.Otherwise, he would go crazy for their sake.As such, Jimmy followed him out of his hospital room, and Henry sent him to the

Henry appeared troubled as he looked at Tina, and he spoke softly as he assured her, "Calm down—don't worry, I've arranged everything, and the procedure will be safe. Jimmy's going to be fine."Once it's done, I'll compensate him with everything… He can have money and a job, anything. He won't have donated his kidney for nothing."Tina's chest heaved from rage, glaring hatefully at Henry as she pointed at the door and snapped, "Get out! Don't give me that bullshit! Jimmy would never say yes no matter what you tell him!"He did not move, so she pushed him and kicked him. "I told you to leave! Can't you hear?!""Just calm down, Tina," Henry sighed, anxious as another moment's delay meant Rory was in more danger. "We're talking about human life here—can't you just set aside past grudges for now? Rory's really going to die, and she needs Jimmy's kidney. This really can't wait!""What does that have to do with us?!" Tina bellowed and started throwing things at Henry since she was una
