Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 372
Linda passed Rory to Zach's care while she stayed on the beach.Zach carefully helped Rory to put her gear on and took her hand, taking her onboard a boat, checking her diving mask when they arrived at the diving spot.Having ensured that everything was fine, he led her down into the water.Rory really liked diving.As they dived into the depths, and Zach spread some fish food into the water, fishes slowly flocked around them.Rory's eyes lit up behind her diving mask, and Zach gazed upon her lovingly.Taking her hand, he spread more fish food as she swam. After a while, Rory held out her hand to him for the fish food—she wanted to do it too.Zach naturally would not refuse and quickly demonstrated how to do it slowly before he passed her some.Rory nodded, and he watched tenderly as she worked, when she suddenly spread all of the fish food at once.The sudden murkiness caught him by surprise, but he held on firmer to Rory's hand, his eyes fixed where she was supposed to be.
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 373
Finding Linda on the beach, Rory ran up to her excitedly, exclaiming, "Mommy! He sank!"She looked expectantly at Linda for her praise, having accomplished what Linda had told her to do.Satisfied, Linda pulled Rory into her arms, calmly kissing her little cheek while whispering softly, "Remember—no one must know about this. If anyone asks, just say you don't know anything. If they get pushy, start crying."If you can't do that, you'll lose me and your daddy."Rory could not help cringing and promptly hugged Linda, hiding her little face in Linda's bosom. "I don't know anything, Mommy.""Good girl."Linda patted Rory's head, her eyes cold as she looked upon the sapphire surface of the sea.It was Zach's own fault.Since he was so sincerely in love with her, she would have been content with just having him locked up behind bars to keep him from meddling in her affairs.But he refused to know his place, refusing to accept her accusations and even threatening her in turn.That p

Linda's mind raced, but she quickly fought back her flaring emotions.An adept actress as ever, the rim of her eyes reddened as tears welled up in her eyes, and she pouted in complaint. "Let go, Zach. You're hurting me."She reached up to pull his hand off, and she cried even more when she could not make him budge. "What's gotten into you? What are you talking about, alive or whatnot?"Rory told me that you left her alone, and I was just going to scold you! She's only seven—how could you leave her by herself?!"Zach watched as Linda lied without even needing a script.That was the mouth which lied impeccably, snaring him so deep within her web of lies that he could not free himself at all.He loved her, but there was still a limit to that.Sure, she had set him up and tried to have him jailed for rape.But because they had really been in love, and because she had a daughter with him, he was willing to give her another chance.He had not been lying when he said he was willing t

Linda was really panicking—for now, she must leave with Henry before coming up with a plan.However, Henry was not moving, and his eyes remained fixed on Tina, wondering what she was up to.And seeing that, Linda trembled even more, hugging his waist and leveling him a pleading look. "Please, Henry, I'm begging you… Get me out of here! I really don't want to see that animal…"Tina smiled coolly at Linda then. "Oh, Linda, what are you so scared of?"Linda wheeled on her and snapped, "I'm scared of Zach! He might force himself on me again! It was you, wasn't it?! Because he failed the last time he tried, you're now having him try it again?""Who, me?" Tina's smile simply broadened and turned toward Zach.Zach could hardly hide the pain in his own eyes.How could he not, when the woman he loved so much was hurting him repeatedly?Looking Linda straight in the eye, he asked, "I forced myself on you, you say?"Linda did not even look at him and kept playing the victim, burying her

Tina smirked, watching as Linda tried to shift the blame to her despite the evidence against her. "Now, as for whether this was faked too, we can have professionals appraise—""Shut up!" Linda screamed, cutting Tina short, her eyes red as she glared at Tina furiously.She absolutely hated that bitch! It was just one dead daughter! What was the big deal?! It was not like Tina could not have more if she loved daughters! She could have one with John or some tramp for all Linda cared—she could even have as many as she liked! Why did she have to keep obsessing over one?!Fighting back her panic to stay calm so she did not fumble, Linda continued her act. "You won't win! Henry will never believe you!"It had been years since she had become Orange, and it had always worked on Henry—he would believe her no matter what she said, as she was flawless in his mind.Even if she was forced to claim that she had been raped seven years ago, Henry never turned his back on her.There was no r
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 377
Linda kept crying, "I promise it won't ever happen again! As long as you stay away from Tina, I'll stay away from Zach! And once Grandma's mourning period is over, we'll get married!"Her words left Henry's heart skipping a beat, as he realized that when he saw the video of Linda getting intimate with Zach, he was only angry that she lied to him—and not that she had cheated on him.In fact, he did not feel jealous at all from seeing Linda willingly melt into another man's embrace.But if that were Tina… No, he did not even dare imagine that. Forget letting it happen—just the sight of Tina being near another man was unbearable.That was when he remembered what Yancy said about changing hearts, and Henry's eyes appeared troubled as he turned toward the sobbing Linda again."You're just satisfying your needs, you say?! You never loved me, you say?!"Zach's fingers clenched around his phone, as he had always believed that Linda was really in love with him.Even now, he forgave her
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 378
"What did you say?"Zach's words were a clap of thunder that left Henry reeling in shock, and he turned sharply toward Zach with eyes as cold as ice.In his surprise, his arms seemed to go limp, and he dropped Linda on the floor just as he lifted her."Argh!" Linda promptly cried out in pain in an attempt to draw Henry's attention back to her.However, seeing that Henry took no notice, Linda stopped being bothered by the pain, keeping her head lowered and her shoulders shaking.As no one could see her face, they could not tell if she was fearful that Zach would expose her or if it was something else.Then when she looked up at Zach moments later, tears welling up in her eyes as she bellowed, "That's slander! Why are you slandering me?!"She stared straight into Zach's eyes, while giving him a look that only they knew.She was betting on Zach's love for her—because he loved her so much, he would not bear to hurt her.And Zach did see the look in her eyes, his gaze troubled as h

"Zach Foster!"Linda's eyes were wide with rage, not expecting Zach to go that far.He swore that he would never hurt her!"Linda Cook!!!"Henry suddenly bellowed.And it was the first time he had ever called her by her full name!Linda's lips trembled as she turned toward Henry, and she was shocked to see the doubt in his eyes."Henry…" she murmured, her tears raining to try and curry Henry's sympathy.Even so, he was just glaring icily at her, and she felt a chill creeping up from her toes, extending throughout her body.She knew very well that Henry was absolutely regretful after learning that he had the wrong idea about Tina since two years ago, and that his presumptions had led to him neglecting Sophie.He felt that he owed Sophie so much and could never make amends for her death, and it was a boulder that kept weighing down on him.Over the past two years, he had spent countless nights at that bastard's grave.And whenever he saw anything that reminded him of children

Mrs. Smith was almost dying when Linda got the pendant back.As Linda carefully tucked the pendant away, she turned toward Mrs. Smith, intending on waiting until Mrs. Smith was dead before calling for help.However, she suddenly heard footsteps coming toward them, so she had to give up on that plan.Putting on a distressed look, she cried, "Help! Is there anyone out there?! Someone help this woman!"The people above heard and came running, and Linda burst into hysterical tears when she saw them. "Please, I'm begging you! Get help!"Soon, Mrs. Smith was brought upstairs, while Linda was helped up her wheelchair too.She had sustained some cuts and bruises from the fall and was being wheeled into the hospital when she saw Henry, who was sneaking in to check on Mrs. Smith."Henry!" Linda quickly called out. "You should call Yancy to help this patient. She suddenly fainted and fell down the stairs—I tried to catch her but couldn't."Henry turned and saw Mrs. Smith.His face droppi
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 399
Because Mrs. Smith was so beautiful, Linda recognized her.The old woman really was Orange's mother, and that meant the pendant was really Tina's.And Tina was Orange!Linda could not help panicking as the truth settled in her mind, as she had always known that all the privilege she got from Henry that allowed her to live so fearlessly was one thing and one thing only.If Henry were to ever find out that Tina was Orange and not Linda, Henry would start to believe everything Tina said.And Linda would not just lose Henry—she would rest in pieces for everything she did.That was why she must never leave anything to chance, let alone have Henry find out.Being Orange was her protection. Without that halo, she was nothing!As Linda glared at Mrs. Smith murderously right then, Mrs. Smith sharply noticed Linda's hostility.Mrs. Smith backed away, trying to leave, but Linda had no intention to let her get away while still alive.Even as Mrs. Smith retreated, Linda steered her wheelc

Fighting against her injury, Mrs. Smith arched her back to pick the pendant up, holding it and studying it.Soon, she was a hundred percent positive that it was the pendant which Henry had given Tina when he left.When Mrs. Smith was reunited with Tina and mentioned Ice, she had asked Tina where it was, but Tina shook her head and said she had lost her memories and did not know where it was.But why did the pendant show up here and now?Did someone pick it up and drop it here?Who was it?Even as the thought crossed Mrs. Smith's mind, someone snatched it off her hands."Don't dirty my pendant with your filthy hands," Linda snapped, her voice shrill as she glared viciously at Mrs. Smith, despising her as much as she despised Tina.However, Mrs. Smith had quick reflexes and snatched the pendant back just as Linda grabbed it, this time holding firmly on it while glaring at Linda in turn."What are you doing?! Give it back to me!"Furious, Linda reached out to grab it.Mrs. Smit
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 397
Mrs. Smith cried, "My daughter was a victim too! She never wanted to sabotage their relationship!"After all, Tina really did not want that to happen, let alone come between Henry and Linda.On top of that, she had paid for that night in pain—and as she was a victim, Mrs. Smith refused to let anyone slander her daughter."Give up already!"However, the gossiper was not letting it rest and kept insisting that Tina was a third-wheeler. "Your daughter definitely saw that the man was rich, so she schemed to get herself into his bed and tried to use the usual baby-trapping scheme!"You should be keeping your head down after what your daughter did! How dare you run your mouth in my face!"Mrs. Smith lost all rationality and wrestled against the gossiper. "I said my daughter isn't a third-wheeler!"However, her health was poor, and the gossiper's three friends were helping her.Soon, Mrs. Smith lost and was shoved painfully to the floor.Her face turned pale as she clutched her chest

It was a sunny day out at the hospital, and Mrs. Smith was feeling great when she woke up.The doctor performed a routine examination, and after having breakfast and taking her medicine, Mrs. Fuller smiled at her. "Why don't we go for a stroll?""Okay." Mrs. Smith did not refuse.As Mrs. Fuller went downstairs with her and they arrived someplace quiet, Mrs. Fuller's phone rang.It was a text message, and Mrs. Fuller soon appeared embarrassed after reading it. "My daughter arrived early. She's at the entrance…""I'm fine. You should hurry—don't make her wait." Mrs. Smith nodded in reply.She was a mother and could understand."Thanks! I'll be right back." Mrs. Fuller smiled gratefully in turn and ran toward the hospital.Mrs. Smith went to sit at a bench with her back to the sun, and took out the book she brought.It was very quiet there, and she could sunbathe while reading as she waited for Mrs. Fuller to return.However, she had barely read a few lines when she heard people

Tina was doing her best to calm down, but her body trembled uncontrollably as she had yet to recover.Jimmy put his hands around hers, helping her take a few sips.As she slowly calmed down, she said, "Can you stay, Jimmy? Let's see Sophie together.""Okay," Jimmy replied mildly and went over to the projector.Soon, Sophie's face appeared on the screen. It was a montage of Sophie's life, starting from the moment she was an infant, fair and pretty, her dark grape-like eyes wide open as she looked around at the world around her in curiosity.She then learned her first steps, always wobbly and falling repeatedly into Tina's arms.And then there was the first time she called Tina 'Mommy'...Tina had not watched those footage of Sophie's life in the days immediately following Sophie's death, because she was afraid she would be overwhelmed.But now, it was her pillar of spiritual support, and she watched it virtually every day.And tonight, she watched it on loop late into the nig

Tina bellowed, "Don't even talk about Sophie! You have no right, Henry Barnes!"At the same time, she pressed a hand over her chest where Sophie's bone was.How devastated would Sophie be, hearing her beloved father repeatedly defend her murderer?Henry sighed. "Tina…""Get out!" Tina bellowed with overflowing spite, cutting him short.Henry could see how obsessed she was and how prickly she got at the very mention of Linda and Sophie.But he could not just ignore this—she would keep doing everything she could to hurt Linda, and in the end destroy herself."You should know very well, Tina, that you won't hurt Linda as long as I'm around."Henry just wanted to make her back off—to stop being obsessed and hurting everyone and herself.But in Tina's mind, he was telling her that no matter what Linda did, no matter how grievous a crime she committed, Henry would always be there to protect Linda.And Linda would always get away with it.Tina had been doing her best to fight back
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 393
Tina chuckled coolly. "Heh."Henry was saying that he wanted to start over? That was certainly the worst joke ever."How did you find the audacity to say such a thing?" She scoffed. "Start over? With who, you? Is every other man in the world dead, that I should be with you—an animal who is protecting Sophie's murder?"Every word was filled with bone-cutting hatred.Even if hatred could pass in time, her hatred toward Henry and Linda only grew by the day.As long as she had yet to avenge Sophie, she would never be able to put that hatred to rest.Henry's grip eased as he met Tina's spiteful glare.And she had just worked with Zach, almost forcing Linda into suicide…However, he did not get upset, instead keeping his tone calm as he reasoned sincerely, "I know you can't get over Sophie's death, and you still think that Linda murdered her, and you want Linda dead for it."But can't we just be reasonable? Linda has made a mistake, but she doesn't deserve to die."She has already

John had to be there for this one.Still, Tina asked, "I thought you said it'd at least be two weeks. Don't ruin your work because you're forcing yourself to rush back—I'm fine, don't worry.""No. Things have just gone smoothly, so I'm returning ahead of schedule," John replied, lying so she did not have to worry.How could he not be worried? Upon learning that Zach had suddenly turned against Tina, he wanted nothing less than to fly back right away to be there for her.And Tina argued at those words. "It must be late over there. You should get some sleep."There was a seven-hour time difference, and it should be past midnight over there now."Alright," John replied. "Just remember to call me if anything happens, and keep your phone switched on at all times.""Okay."John kept nagging nonetheless and only hung up after saying 'bon appetit' when the food arrived.Though she did not have an appetite, Tina was famished, and John had ordered from her favorite restaurants, so she
