Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 348
If Henry was really convinced that Zach had forced himself on Linda, he would have Zach thrown in prison and made sure that Zach got a life sentence.Although Zach had willingly taken the prison sentence for Linda and Rory's sake two years ago, that was because he loved Linda and was convinced that Linda loved Rory as much as he did—that she loved and would take good care of their daughter.That was why he was comfortable letting Linda take care of Rory.But now, he knew that Linda was actually abusing Rory.He remembered the needle holes and the bruising across Rory's body, and how Mrs. Long described Rory leaving Linda's room with swollen cheeks, as well as the video where Rory was left freezing out there.But all he had seen was likely just the tip of the iceberg.Without him watching, who knew how much abuse Rory would suffer at the hands of Linda.And Zach could not bear to see his baby girl being hurt.That was why he could not go to jail again.He would reclaim Rory and
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 349
Linda was slightly stunned by Henry's question as she turned toward him in disbelief, grief showing all over her face and her tone wounded. "Henry…"However, Zach was stunned too.Because he did not have evidence.Linda had always been careful about that—forget photos, she would tell him to delete their call logs after every single phone call, even though they were calling each other on burner phones.There was no way he could prove that Linda had called him here!He used to think nothing of it—being careful was right, as it stopped Henry from catching on that they were basically having him raise their daughter.Moreover, Linda kept telling him how much she loved him, and he never suspected that she was just worried that he would keep evidence of their affair.And seeing that Zach could not show evidence, Henry glowered.How dare Zach mislead him into doubting Linda!He raised his foot and launched another kick at Zach, even more vicious this time.As Zach was left coughing b
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 350
Then, turning toward Henry with pleading tears, Linda cried, "He's not just trying to force himself on me, but he's trying to slander me too!"I want to sue him! I want him sentenced for life! Help me, Henry! Send him to prison! He ruined me… he ruined us and left me hurting for years!"I don't want to see him—I don't want Rory to know that her father is a rapist! I don't want that! Henry, you have to help me!"Zach was a timebomb, and he must be sent back to prison so that he would not ever bother her again.At first, she was worried that Henry would find out she and Zach were acquainted a long time ago, and that she was complicit to Tina's accident two years ago.But now, she was not worried at all—a rapist who loved her would definitely go to extreme lengths for her.And since she despised Zach so much, she would never conspire with him."I won't forgive anyone who hurts you," Henry assured her, passing her a tissue.He was a demon from hell, as he remembered how Linda was h
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 351
Pausing, Tina asked, "Why would you accuse Zach Foster of being a rapist? You have no proof, Henry Barnes—or are Linda's words alone enough for you?"Henry was stumped and scowled, and the air seemed to turn still, until Linda burst into tears behind Henry, her voice choking with tears as she cried, "Tina! I have no proof of what he did seven years ago, but he barged in and tried to do it again just now!"If Henry hadn't made it in time, I would almost b-be… defiled by that animal! And here's the proof of his crime!"As Linda finished, she threw off the suit that Henry had draped over her shoulders, revealing her sleeping gown that was ripped violently apart, as well as the hickeys that Zach had left after she tempted him.It was a gruesome sight, and Zach's eyes were red as he stared at her.Those marks were left whenever they made out, and never did he think that Linda would use them to accuse him of being a rapist.His heart felt as if it had been shot by a thousand arrows, ha
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 352
It took Tina a long while to calm her surging hatred so that Linda's provocation did not get to her. "I'll say it again—where's your proof? Spare me your nonsense if you don't have any."Then, she turned toward Zach who stayed on the floor and gestured for the bodyguards to help him up. "He's coming with me."Henry shot a look at Linda's bodyguards, who quickly moved to stop them."Out of the way!" Tina was insistent on leaving with Zach, but the two groups of bodyguards were evenly matched.Tina herself moved in front of Zach, refusing to let Henry take him from her.But Henry was not planning to let them go either—he grabbed Tina's wrist and pulled her away from Zach while kicking him down to the floor again.As Zach fell, Henry looked at Tina straight in the eye. "You are not taking him away. He'll be judged by the law for what he did!"Seven years ago, he raped Linda and put her through seven years of torment. Even though he failed on his second attempt, I'll make sure that
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 353
Linda was not about to let slip any chance to disparage Tina and attempted to direct the blame on her. "I didn't think that Zach knew, or that you'd slander me however you can!"This is your way of getting back at me, isn't it? You hate me, and that's why you're taking it out on Rory! It hurts you to see Henry doting on her or Rory doing fine!"Now, you made Henry let Zach out of prison, so that you can use him to slander me, and so that he'll take Rory away from me, didn't you? You want Rory to fall into the hands of a rapist, and rapists have no humanity to speak of! What do you think you're doing?!"You're just trying to ruin Rory's life, aren't you?! Rory is innocent!"However, this was not the same Tina from two years ago, who had always vehemently maintained her innocence whenever Linda slandered her, putting herself on the backfoot.This time, Tina simply pulled out her phone and played the voice recording of Mrs. Long's testimony.It stopped Linda's slander at once, and L
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 354
The video was the nail on the coffin, and Linda could not argue against it.Henry's face was cold as he reached out to take the phone from Tina and stared fixedly at the video.There was no question about it—that was Rory, standing in the garden in the middle of winter, her feet bare and wearing nothing but a thin sleeping gown.It was such an impactful scene that Henry wheeled on Linda with a furious glare, bellowing, "What's the meaning of this?!""It's not what you think…" Linda certainly could tell that Henry was furious, and her mind raced to come up with an excuse.However, none of the stuff she saw online was a reason she could use to justify abusing Rory.Worse of all, as she struggled to explain herself, the bodyguards returned with Rory in tow.Rory was beaming happily when she saw Henry's car outside and rushed inside, calling out, "Daddy!"She missed Henry as it had been days since he visited.As he rushed inside, she seemed to not notice anyone else and ran str
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 355
Rory did not hesitate to shake her head. "No, she didn't."Zach had the strongest response to that answer.Losing control of himself right then, he yelled out loud, "What do you mean she didn't?!"He was so loud that he sent Rory running into Henry's arms.Seeing that, he did his best to calm down and speak softly. "You're scared because your mommy hurt you, aren't you? You won't tell the truth because you're too scared of her?"You don't have to be scared—I'm your real daddy, and I promise to protect you from now on. You mommy won't get to hurt you ever again. Just be brave and tell the truth…"After such obvious abuse, Zach could not come up with another reason why his daughter would not hesitate to deny that Linda was hurting her.However, Rory only hugged Henry even tighter at Zach's words. "I'm telling the truth. Mommy loves me very much—she has never hurt me… Wahhh!!!"She trailed off, suddenly bursting into tears. "No! You're lying! You're not my daddy!"She utterly des

Yancy was himself on the way to the hospital when he called Henry, and his expression was somber as he hung up.Even as he sped toward the hospital, he was left wondering how Mrs. Smith suddenly went into shock, when her condition was clearly stabilizing?She was already weak after a major surgery, and the shock came with terrible timing.If they could not save her in time, she would die.And even if they did, she might remain comatose, staying in a vegetative state.Even as the thought crossed Yancy's mind, he floored the gas pedal again.Every second counted for such medical crises, and just being early by one minute might make all the difference.And Yancy prayed that Mrs. Smith would be fine.-Tina was pale as she stood outside the doors of the emergency room.She and Jimmy were going to take turns taking care of Mrs. Smith, as there was no reason for two people to stay with her at the same time.As such, Tina told Jimmy to go home to rest and come tomorrow so they coul

On the other hand, Linda felt gleeful about it too.Sophie was six feet under but had never once experienced such fatherly love from Henry.It all went to Rory instead.Smart as ever, Rory called out to Linda just then, "Mommy." Linda hurried over as Rory held out a hand while she remained in Henry's arms.Linda quickly grasped Rory's hand and used that as an excuse to move beside Henry, even pressing herself against him.Her spirits soared as she inhaled that mature masculine scent of his.How could she ever let go of his man?No matter what happened, she would never let Henry find out that Tina was Orange.Henry was hers and hers alone!As Linda subtly pressed herself closer to Henry, they looked just like a blissful family of three in the distance.Still, she had to get up when the specialist Henry recruited hurried over, and Henry told Rory to lie down.After the specialists took turns to examine Rory, Henry went with them to the office to speak about her condition in
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 413
Hearing that there was evidence, Tina's spirit soared.After countless attempts on her own life and pulling herself together, she told herself repeatedly that she must be patient—that she must not break before she avenged Sophie.That she must never rush things and always be calm, and never let Henry or Linda get to her.However, how could she not get impatient?Linda had murdered her baby, and her hatred for Linda cut deep into her bones.Even in her dreams, she wanted justice for Sophie.But now, knowing that Linda was a fraud all along, Tina could not wait to get her hands on the evidence and rip off Linda's mask of lies as Henry watched!"Where's the evidence, Mom?" Tina pressed urgently.Beside Mrs. Smith's bed, Mrs. Fuller leaned closer when Mrs. Smith said there was evidence.Mrs. Smith's voice was too soft for her to catch, and Jimmy and Tina were both too focused on Mrs. Smith to notice what she was doing anyway.However, just before Mrs. Smith could tell Tina where

Crash!However, just as Mrs. Smith finished, Mrs. Fuller suddenly staggered and knocked over a bedside lamp.It shattered loudly on the floor, drowning out Mrs. Smith's already enfeebled voice."I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Mrs. Fuller apologized repeatedly as she dropped down to pick up the pieces, and no one paid attention to that minor distraction after.Still, Henry missed what Mrs. Smith said and was about to ask what it was when Linda grabbed his arm and caught his attention. "Please, Henry—Tina's mother's surgery was a success. She can wait, but Rory can't."She's really in terrible danger—anything else can wait. Can't you go to Rory now?"Linda's tears poured as she pleaded miserably, as all she wanted was to get Henry away from this place.Once she did, she would use Rory to buy even more time while she came up with a plan.Henry had to agree that Linda was right—there was a priority to things.Mrs. Smith's surgery was a success, and she had already passed her risk period—t

Looking Henry straight in the eye, Linda seemed not to notice his hostility at all.Her fingers clenching on her wheelchair, she threw herself toward Henry without an ounce of self-regard. "Please, Henry. You have to save Rory…"Henry did not expect that and could not catch her in time, leaving her collapsing in front of Mrs. Smith's bed."Linda!"As Henry came to his senses and went up to Linda, she seized the moment to wrap her arms around him, looking at him with a face covered in tears of misery and despair. "Please, Henry. You have to save Rory!"Henry's face dropped as he finally heard what Linda was saying.Scooping Linda off the ground and putting her into her wheelchair, he asked nervously, "What happened to Rory?"Linda kept clinging to him as she choked with tears. "Rory is suffering from kidney transplant rejection… the doctor said it's very serious…"She's very scared… she's crying, saying she wants to see you… but you won't answer my calls!"I know Tina doesn't w

Henry had not fallen asleep for long when Jimmy rudely shook him awake.He was a light sleeper, and as he jolted awake right away and opened his eyes, he leveled a clearly hostile glare at Jimmy.Jimmy met his glare unflinching, even snapping coolly, "My godmother wants to see you."Henry's hostility faded right away at those words.Jimmy's godmother was obviously Tina's mother, and for some reason, she was asking to see him.Henry promptly got up, but he moved too quickly and his head started spinning.He leaned against his bed on one hand, pushing himself up slowly.He headed to the washroom first, cleaning up at top speed before putting on a suit and heading to the opposite room."Mrs. Smith."As he entered, he greeted Tina's mother humbly, without poising himself with superiority.Mrs. Smith knew she should not feel agitated when her surgery was so recent.In fact, she took her time composing herself before Henry came over and was much calmer when she saw him this time.
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 409
Yancy had been sleeping in his office too and never left the hospital, leaving express instructions for the nurses to call him as soon as Mrs. Smith woke up.As he hurried over, he quickly examined Mrs. Smith, while Tina stood by her bed looking utterly worried.When Yancy was finally done, Tina quickly asked, "How's my mother?""She's cleared the risk period—she's stable now." Yancy nodded at her, utterly relieved as well.As they spoke, Mrs. Fuller—who was standing behind them—quietly hung up the call on her phone.Linda was listening on the other end.She too had gone the entire night without sleeping after leaving the hospital yesterday, albeit waiting for Mrs. Smith to die from the surgery.She really wondered how much Tina would suffer from it, and if she would lose her mind altogether.What she did not expect was for Mrs. Smith to be so lucky to survive, and she panicked as soon as she heard the surgery was a success.Nothing about everything that had happened yesterday
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 408
Hearing that the surgery was a success, Tina burst into tears of joy. "Thank you so much!"An exhausted Yancy told Tina that Mrs. Smith would be out in another ten minutes, and she had nothing to worry about.Then, he returned inside as well to get changed.As the doors of the operating room closed, she turned and threw herself into Jimmy's arms. "Oh, Jimmy! Mom's alright now!"She was completely unaware that it was Henry, who had somehow arrived outside the operating room and was standing right beside her.Henry knew that she got the wrong person, but he could not resist wrapping his arms around her.However, the embrace was all too brief as Tina realized almost instantly that she was hugging Henry.Having loved him for so many years, she was all too familiar with his scent and did not hesitate to push him away just as he was just about to hold her in turn.However, he had just donated a lot of blood and had barely made it there to wait with Tina.Utterly frail, he staggered
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 407
However, Henry did not hesitate to hang up on Linda while grasping and gently squeezing Tina's cold, trembling hand."I won't leave until your mother's surgery is over. I'll do all I can to make sure she's safe."There was no changing Sophie's death, and there was nothing he could do about that.But he would do what he could for Mrs. Smith.And before Tina could speak, Henry released her hand and hurried away with the nurse.His phone rang three times before he was gone from his sight.They were all calls from Linda, but Henry did not hesitate to hang up on her.It was the first time Henry had chosen Tina instead of Linda when Tina needed him.Nonetheless, Jimmy put a hand around Tina's shoulder then. "I just got off the phone with two of my friends. They're coming as we speak."Don't take it to heart, Tina. Henry Barnes owes you that much."He did not want Tina to feel burdened by Henry's help, when she hated that man to the bone.Even if what he did would not change Tina's
