Chapter 422

Author: Angelica1
Linda wiped her tears and looked at Tina fearlessly. "Yeah! Go on, Tina! You said I'm not Orange, so where's your proof?!"

As she was behind Henry, she leveled a contemptuous leer at Tina that basically goaded her to show proof if she could!

She really loved it when Tina knew the truth but still could not do a thing about it!

So what if Tina was Orange?

Henry would never believe her from her words alone, and the only one who had proof could no longer talk.

What did Linda have to fear?

Still, Henry's question restored Tina's rationality.

She could not remember the childhood memories she had of Henry, and now, Linda left her mother a vegetable.

That meant she had no way to prove she was Orange.

It was only in her frustration that she said Linda was not Orange, because Henry was stubbornly defending Linda.

And since there was no proof and Henry obviously would not believe her, there was no reason to keep pressing the issue, or she would just humiliate herself.

She had already

    Linda's eyes lit up at Henry's quiet response—he trusted her.But before she could get all smug about it, Henry continued, "If it really wasn't you, the cops will maintain your innocence once their investigation is complete."When he told Tina that they could not believe Mrs. Fuller entirely to pin the crime on Linda, he did not say it to protect Linda—Mrs. Fuller did not produce solid evidence that proved it was Linda.But he would not stop the cops getting involved, and he would not protect Linda if her guilt was proven.Linda's eyes widened in disbelief. "Henry… You don't believe me?"Henry shook his head. "I believe you. But if it really wasn't you, why would you be worried?"The cops will uncover the truth and prove it wasn't you. And when Tina understands that it wasn't you, she won't get to keep accusing you!"Linda's heart skipped a beat, holding Henry's gaze with a look of grief as she sobbed, "Why would I be worried? I didn't do it! It's not like I'm upset that the cop

    That was when Henry, his eyes ablaze, asked Tina, "Why did you say that at the hospital earlier?"Tina closed her eyes and did not answer.The fact that Henry asked it meant he had already convinced himself that Linda was Orange, and Tina was not.Seeing that Tina was ignoring him, Henry's lips twitched, but he stayed silent.Once they reached the hospital, Tina alighted immediately.Henry did not, instead telling Andy to take him to hospital where Rory was to keep her company.-At the precinct, Linda was led to a cell.Having led a life of privilege, Linda definitely could not stand the environment in there and was frowning as soon as she was in.The air inside was stagnant, and there were many different scents in the mix, and it left her sickened as soon as it hit her nostrils.On top of that, the woman closest to her had a foul body odor, and she immediately snapped in disgust, "Get away from me. Don't you know that you stink?"Over the last two years, Linda had been faw

    As Linda vomited, she also coughed out the dirty rag from her mouth, and it landed on herself along with her own vomit."Argh!"But as Linda screamed hysterically, the dirty rag was shoved into her open mouth again, stopping her from yelling or calling for help.Various colors alternated over Linda's face—she could not stand such disgust and retched again.She shook her head repeatedly as well, trying to get the rag out.This time, the woman shoved the rag deep, blocking her vomit completely.Linda was left spasming in misery, almost passing out from sheer disgust, and could die right then!At that point, the pride she carried at the start was completely gone.She leveled a tearful, pleading look at the moment, her tone muffled but clearly apologetic.But it was too late—and on top of that, the damsel in distress trick worked with men but only invoked disgust in other women.And to no surprise, the woman glared at Linda hatefully as she kicked her to the floor, snorting in di

    Tina was already suffering since the first day of her period and lay down as John suggested.As John tucked her under her blanket, Jimmy shot her a look.He talked himself hoarse, but she still refused to rest, insisting on staying up to keep watch over Mrs. Smith.And yet, with just a few words from John, she went to sleep without putting up a fight.Shaking his head, Jimmy left to get some rest too, letting John take the couch and turning off the lights before he left.John moved the couch between Tina and Mrs. Smith, sat down, and held Tina's hand as he gently coaxed, "It's alright. You can sleep."And with that, there were only shallow breaths aside from the equipment beeping in the hospital room.Tina, feeling relieved, quickly fell asleep.John closed his eyes as well once he made sure she was sleeping.He fell asleep quickly too, as it had been dozens of hours since he last slept.-Early next morning, Tina woke up as she was keen to find out how the investigation on

    Tina clenched her knuckles as she fought against her rage and retorted against the officer, "Mrs. Fuller said it herself. It was Linda—""We've interrogated Mrs. Fuller too," the officer replied patiently. "It turns out to be mere speculation on her part, and she's never met Ms. Cook personally."When your mother fell down the stairs, she saw you accuse Ms. Cook, so she presumed that it was Ms. Cook who had contacted her."That was why she blamed Ms. Cook after she was caught red-handed, but her contact was Zach Foster all along."While Tina knew that the police investigation only went that far, Linda getting with it again left her absolutely discontent."Please, officer," Tina pleaded. "This can't be the whole truth—don't close the case so soon! Keep pressing Zach and try to find more evidence."He's not the culprit. He has no quarrel with my mother, it has to be Linda—""Tina Smith! Don't you blame Linda for everything!!!" Zach suddenly bellowed in agitation despite having sta

    Henry walked up to Tina, speaking under his breath, "This ends here, so quit causing a mess. To be fair to your mother, I'll make Zach pay for hurting her, okay?"He tried to offer Tina some assurance so that she would stop being stubborn.After Sophie's death, Tina was so prejudiced that she would immediately blame Linda for anything that happened.However, Tina was already doing her best to fight back her flaring impulses, but Henry's words made her wheel on him with a furious glare. "Shut up!"Beside her, John grimaced and put a hand around her shoulder, even as she shook with rage.Henry's gaze darkened even as he stared at the hand.That was when Linda arrived.A female officer had helped her clean the excrement off her body, but she was still haggard after being tormented that night, even looking like she had lost a few pounds."Henry…" she called out miserably when she saw him.As she steered her wheelchair up to Henry, she fell toward him, and he caught her.She leane

    After Zach was taken away, the case was closed.Weary in body and spirit, Tina refused to look at Henry or Linda twice. "John, let's go back to the hospital.""Okay," John replied, putting a hand over her shoulder and leading her outside.Tina did not push him away, leaning against him intimately.Henry's gaze darkened.Just seeing that really stung his eyes, and he was ready to stride forward to pull Tina away from John and into his arms.Still, he just took one step and paused, as he remembered that Linda was still there.Linda saw it anyway.However, she fought back her jealousy, as if she never noticed that Tina had Henry's attention.Tugging on Henry's hand, she asked meekly, "Can you help me with the paperwork, Henry?""Yeah," Henry replied quietly and turned away from Tina as he went with an officer to help Linda with the paperwork for her release.Linda watched and waited until he was out of sight, then turned back toward Tina, not hiding the flaring jealousy in her

    Even as she remembered everything that she had gone through last night, Linda could tear Tina into pieces where she stood.How dare she have her arrested and locked up!As such, seeing that Tina actually stopped, she refused to fail and kept taunting Tina, deriving great glee as she did."You should be thanking me, Tina! I'm being kind to you!" Linda laughed. "Your bastard was five when she died, and she must be lonely burning in hell alone!"You're supposed to be her mother, but you're so afraid of dying that you refuse to die and join her. Guess I have to do it as her stepmother and send her grandmother to join her instead!"Oh, but who knew that her grandmother would get lucky? She refused to die from the fall, and then, even after having her oxygen tube pulled out!"So why are you still alive? Why don't you just die and take your useless mom with you?! Go together to join your bastard in hell!"Seeing Tina shaking with rage but unable to do anything about it certainly satisf
