Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 327
John clearly felt Tina trembling behind himself, but from rage.She was hurting as much as she loathed Henry and him coercing her.John's eyes ached, and as soon as he felt Tina pulling her hand out of his grasp, he held on firmly and said, "Don't go. Leave this to me—I'll make sure that your mother is safe."He was really worried that Henry's coercion would cause Tina's depression to relapse.The rim of Tina's eyes reddened as she glanced at John, her gaze clearly helpless.She had no idea how to win, when Henry's power was crashing down on her with the weight of a mountain.She did not think that Henry would keep hounding her when she returned to Jadelight—over the last two years, she had seen too many reports of Henry and Linda going strong.She thought what little of his possessiveness would be gone, only for him to prove himself utterly despicable."Trust me."That was when John turned toward her with a warm, assuring gaze.Tina could not help holding his hand firmly in
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 328
Mrs. Levine?John's mother?As Tina never confirmed her relationship with John, she did not visit the Levines upon her return to Jadelight.Now that Mrs. Levine was asking to see her, she could not refuse, as John had been very kind to her.She texted John before she got into the car, and they arrived outside a pretty teahouse twenty minutes later.Tina followed the butler inside, into the very end of the hallway swirling with the aroma of tea leaves.The butler knocked on the door, and a melodious voice spoke, "Come in."The butler opened the door and greeted the person inside. "Ma'am."Then, he stood aside, allowing Tina to enter.As she did, she found an attractive woman who had John's eyes sitting by the window, eyeing her before saying, "Sit, Ms. Smith."Her tone was at once distant, and it told Tina more or less about Mrs. Levine's opinion of her.Still, she went over and took a seat, nodding politely. "Hello, Mrs. Levine."Satisfied that Tina knew her place with that
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 329
Mrs. Levine paused before adding, "This isn't between you, John, and Henry Barnes. This is about the Levines and the Barnes."John isn't just one person—he's the head of the family who shoulders all our fates. I don't care what he does for you, but if he's going to sacrifice the whole family…"The whole family?Tina was stunned.All John had told her was not to worry, because he would stop Henry from interfering with Mrs. Smith's surgery.She knew about John sabotaging Henry's project, and he told her that things were going well.She never suspected John to lie, only for Mrs. Levine to suggest otherwise.It was also true that Henry was a ruthless businessman and never backed down easily, and that the Barnes family was superior over the Levines in the first place.If a fight really broke out, all John would get at best was a Pyrrhic victory.And Tina could not make John sacrifice the Levines for her sake.Her face was pale, as she realized that she had been too worried about h

It was Henry's car.The window was lowered, revealing his handsome face.He looked past John at Tina and breathed, "Get in."As Tina looked up at his triumphant smile, her frustrations could consume her right then.Her eyes flaring in rage, she flung her bag at him through the window, wishing that he would die that instant.So many people died every year—why could it not be Henry?However, Henry snatched the bag out of the air, calmly putting it aside and even getting out to open the door for her.Tina turned to leave instead—every second of his absence she could get counted, as she hated him the most.A cab arrived, and she got in.Seeing that from the rearview mirror, Henry closed the door, ready to turn his car around and give chase when another car crashed into him.It was John, whose car was parked by the road.He could tell that Tina needed time to calm down, but seeing that Henry was going to give chase, he floored the gas pedal and crashed his car into Henry's, rammi

Jimmy bellowed at Henry, "Don't you lay a finger on Tina!"He had no right!Jimmy had hurried to Tina when she called him two years ago—she had slit her wrists for the first time as her depression struck.It was only then that Jimmy found out the truth about Sophie's death, and like Tina, he came to loathe Henry and Linda to the bone.At the same time, his heart bled for Tina having to suffer everything and ultimately being forced into crippling depression by those two.And when Tina finally pulled herself together when she was reunited with Mrs. Smith, Henry had to show up again, now using Mrs. Smith's illness to coerce Tina.He should die a thousand times over!As grudges old and new came together, Jimmy could not stop himself despite promising Tina that he would not be rash.He was ready to smash the bottle on Henry's head to kill him.However, Henry was quick, sidestepping before the bottle landed and blocking it with his hand.The bottle smashed on his wrist, the glass c
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 332
Turning, Henry leveled a sharp glare at Jimmy and growled coldly, "What are you talking about?!"He was killing Tina again?! What?!"What am I talking about?!" Jimmy retorted. "You and Linda gave Tina crippling depression two years ago! Do you even know how she survived?!"Crippling depression?! Henry was clearly stunned.It was not as if he doubted that it was a real condition, but in his mind, all Tina showed was just a few mood swings, and there was no sign she had been depressed.Now, two years later, she was even more normal.And Jimmy said she had depression? No way!Seeing that Henry was skeptical, Jimmy strode up toward him—not to hit him this time, but to pick up the hand Tina was clutching her own belly with.As Henry watched, he rolled up her sleeve, revealing a wrist brace underneath.Even before it could register in his mind, Jimmy pulled the brace upward, revealing the scars Tina was hiding.Henry was left thunderstruck, not quite believing his eyes.There we
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 333
As the car door opened, Henry reached out to help Tina out of the car, but she shook him off, staggering toward a trash can and puking into it.Her mind cleared a little when she was done.Henry stood beside her, quietly passing her a bottle of water.Tina did not refuse because she had to wash the sickening taste in her mouth.But she paused as she took it, as she saw the scars on her wrist exposed.However, she did not try to hide them—seeing that her wrist brace was pulled upward, she knew that Henry had seen them.Despite her surprise, she calmly took the bottle and drank."Why didn't you tell me?" Henry then asked quietly.Tina laughed in cold contempt before shooting back, "Tell you? What would that change? Will you kill yourself and Linda to atone for Sophie's death? Or will you find mercy in your heart to spare my mother and myself?"No, you won't, so don't try to pretend to be human when you're not. You have no reason to do that!"Two years ago, in the days immediate
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 334
At the hospital, the doctor's expression darkened after examining Tina, and he snapped, "Don't you know that you suffer terrible period cramps? And you're taking so much hormonal birth control? Are you trying to kill yourself?""Sorry…" Tina murmured, enfeebled but aware the doctor was just being concerned, and no doctor would like to see a woman sabotaging their own health.Seeing that she was really in a lot of pain, the doctor calmed down. Tina was quite young too, so he added, "Don't ever do that again, or you might never get pregnant.""Yeah," Tina murmured softly.With that, the doctor left so that she could rest.Henry, who was outside, glowered as he heard everything the doctor said and understood.Tina was hurting because she took birth control pills without a care for her health—why she had induced her period was all too obvious.She did not want him to touch her.Did she really hate him so much that she would hurt herself just to stop him?!His chest heaving, he l

However, Linda was not all that confident even as she spoke, as she knew that Henry absolutely hated her now.Even so, she had to harass Tina—just seeing Tina upset made her happy.After Henry stormed out of Rose Garden last night, a security guard had to carry a wounded Rory home.And when Linda tried to call Henry, she realized that her number had been blocked and understood that Henry was really upset after last night.But he loved Rory, so he definitely would just be upset for a moment.Once he calmed down, Rory just had to play the victim card again and sweet talk him to earn his forgiveness.Linda had no doubt about that.Ever since Henry found out that Tina was the real Orange but still pampered Rory, it was clear he really loved Rory.And Sophie was dead—how was she ever going to win against Rory?As such, Rory was now Linda's pride.With Rory, she could continue to lead a life of privilege and swipe credit cards without a spending limit, as well as stay in their pres
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 527
But what if Sophie was alive?John really wanted to ask the question but calmed down before he breathed those words, stopping himself just in time.He was still looking.He must never give Tina false hopes before he found anything definitive, because she loved Sophie very much and it would leave her devastated again.On the other hand, seeing that John suddenly trailed off, Tina asked, "What…?""Nothing. Why don't you rest on the couch and let me handle breakfast?"John smiled, ultimately saying nothing about Sophie while putting a hand on her shoulder, gently nudging her to get some rest."No, I'll help." Tina shook her head and worked with him to cook breakfast.Soon, they were done and finished breakfast together.While John headed to work, Tina went to the mall.Mrs. Smith was recovering better than expected, thanks to Yancy helping her with a special recovery plan.As such, Tina had time to buy her new clothes and a birthday present for Helen Moore, as the latter's birt
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 526
John did not hide his selfish nature when he was around Tina.In the end, he was really not that confident in himself—not after Tina had been in love with Henry for so many years, and John himself knew all too well how difficult it was to get over a person after loving them for so long.Still, Tina knew what John was getting at. "I'll never forgive Henry Barnes for the rest of my life, nor return to his side."There is no question that Linda was the one who murdered Sophie. But without Henry's involvement, she would never have had the chance."What she did was horrible, but he's just as unforgivable."That was why she loathed Linda as much as Henry.And the way she saw it, Sophie's death would always stand between her and Henry—there was no chance for her to turn back to him in this life.Seeing the determined expression on her face, John understood that the chief reason that Tina hated Henry so much was because of Sophie's death, and she refused to forgive him.But what if Sop
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 525
As Henry turned toward Tina, he could imagine how much despair she would have suffered that night, having to wipe blood off Sophie's gravestone.And she had loved Sophie so much that she bought that specific plot of land for Sophie's final resting place, just so that Sophie could be reborn into a better family in her next life!"Tina, can you check on the stew?" John came up with an excuse for Tina to leave, as there were more things that he did not want Tina to remember.Tina nodded quietly and entered the apartment without another look at Henry, while John shut the door as he watched.Then, turning toward Henry again, John asked, "Now, let's talk about Linda's legs. Did you know why Tina pushed her?"Henry could not even answer at that point.Just the two things mentioned earlier was more than what he could take—his heart was almost in pieces and bleeding for Sophie, and for Tina even more so.And yet, John continued, "It was all Linda. She found that Tina was severely depress
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 524
Henry's eyes widened—that was the day… Sophie was buried?!What the hell was he doing?!He felt a chill creeping up from his toes and wobbled backward until his back hit the wall.He never thought about that, because he did not know Linda had every intention to murder Sophie.And now that John laid bare the truth before him, he remembered what he did.Rory had won third place in some jogging event at her kindergarten, and she harmonized perfectly with Linda at Rose Garden.While Rory was coaxing Henry sweetly to celebrate it for her with a grand party, Linda appeared disapproving that he was spoiling Rory, but then offhandedly mentioned they should do it on the weekend.And on the day of the party, Linda had deliberately called Tina to invite her to the party, even asking Tina to bring Sophie along since Henry had not seen Sophie for a while.At the time, Henry was completely skeptical of Sophie's death and missed Sophie since it had really been a while since he saw her.He wa
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 523
As Henry dropped to his knees, his blood freezing up, he realized had really been harboring Sophie's murderer all along.Remorse and regret struck him everywhere all at once.He looked up at Tina, wanting very much to tell her that he did not know.If he had known that Linda had taken the kidney meant for Sophie maliciously, he would not have protected Linda even if he was still under the impression that Linda was Orange.But he also realized that it was not as if he did not have the chance to find out.It was all because of his suspicion toward Tina that he denied her any chance to speak up.Or perhaps she had already given up on him at that point.Tears were welling up in Tina's eyes as she realized what Henry meant to say.Time seemed to turn back to the day when Sophie died, and she was once again mourning Sophie.It had been over two years, but she could never get a good night's sleep at the notion that Sophie was not avenged and therefore could not rest in peace."I've
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 522
Henry did try to force Zach to give up the alleged evidence he had against Linda and even put him through pain that only professionals could endure, let alone a normal person.But since Zach did not give up, he simply presumed that Tina bore a grudge and framed Linda, all because Linda had stolen the kidney meant for Sophie, allowing Rory to survive while Sophie died.If the truth was what Tina had claimed, however—that Rory was not even a match for the kidney transplant meant for Sophie—then that could only mean that Linda had meant to murder Sophie in the first place.Everything she said—that she loved Rory too much and did not want to lose her, and that she felt guilty from picking her own child out of selfishness… Those were all lies!On the other hand, tears were welling up in Tina's eyes as she felt as she was brought back to that day."Linda never meant to let Sophie live from the start. And she didn't just steal the kidney meant for Sophie—when Sophie's condition turned te
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 521
Tina glared icily at Henry as she snapped, "What's the point of kneeling here?! You don't even get to apologize as long as you have yet to avenge Sophie!"Henry's burly figure clearly cringed from Tina's words.His lips parted but he had no idea what to say, because he had a hand in Sophie's death too.If he had not told Eric Sandler to prioritize Rory if there was a donor match, Linda would not have been able to steal the kidney meant for Sophie, and Sophie would be alive.Even if he did not know, he was still the reason Linda succeeded, and that made him the chief culprit of Sophie's death."Tina…" He tried to speak despite the difficulty, only to stop.However, Tina knew what he was going to say, seeing the look on his face, and was absolutely seething as she stared daggers at him. "Are you going to tell me that Linda has already suffered for it?! That she's lost her legs and now a hand—""No…."Tina's outburst certainly reminded him of the dastardly things he said to defend
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 520
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—
