Chapter 464

Penulis: Angelica1
Henry had spoken of his past with Tina, and how he had hurt Tina and Sophie.

That he felt remorse and regret, that he would like to change the past and start over with Tina.

But Sophie's death was a gap that would always keep them apart.

The things that he had done to hurt Tina and Sophie over the years would never be undone, and there was no way it could be forgotten as if it never happened just because he regretted it.

There was no chance of Henry getting back together with Tina.

Still, Mrs. Smith fought back the emotions churning inside so that she stayed calm and told Tina and Jimmy, "Help me up."

Tina shook her head, worried that Henry would upset Mrs. Smith and affect her health again. "No, Mom—your health is most important, and Henry Barnes just isn't worth it. Let's get you back to the hospital for now, alright?"

"I know what I'm doing," Mrs. Smith said.

From her perspective, nothing mattered more than Henry knowing the truth.

Even if there was no chance of Henry getti

    In other words, Henry had got it wrong.His eyes widened, his pupils dilating.The moment he confirmed Mrs. Smith was Orange's mother, there was no hiding the emotions blazing in his eyes, and his vision blurred."Mama Orange…" He breathed through tears, his lips twitching with the excitement of finding something once lost, a million different emotions tangling in his heart.He had always believed that Mama Orange was dead, and that he could never repay her for saving his life.And now that he saw her, alive and right in front of her, he could not calm down for a long time."Don't call me that, Henry Barnes! You have no right!" Mrs. Smith was tearful too, but her words chilled the bone and carried no sentiment.As a mother, she could pulverize Henry where he stood just remembering how much he had hurt Tina.And her words shot Henry right in the heart, his face turning pale.Mrs. Smith's voice was cold and a stark contrast from the mild, affectionate voice he remembered.His h

    In reality, Henry had fallen in love with Tina all along—even Yancy could see it and told him that he had changed.Even so, Henry kept trying to avoid facing facts, refusing to admit that he was cheating on Orange, and buried his feelings for Tina deep beneath his heart while sealing it behind wall after wall so that he did not have to deal with it.And now that he knew he had fallen in love with the real Orange all along, all his feelings for Tina broke through the walls, gushing out.At that moment, his eyes burned with passion as he looked at Tina, only to find himself looking into her icy glare.It was not the first time Tina had stared at him like that either, as it was the way she looked at him after she grew to thoroughly despise him ever since Sophie died because of him and Linda.But none of those times hurt as much as this.Even after learning that she was his Orange, but she was still glaring at him like she wanted him to drop dead, it felt like someone was flaying his

    The coldness in every syllable Henry breathed cut to the bone, leaving Linda pale in fear.She trembled in fear the instant Henry turned toward her, as his gaze made clear he could tear her apart where he was standing.He looked just like a demon who had just climbed out of hell, and it was the first time she wanted to flee from him!She reached with his trembling fingers to steer her wheelchair but paused before she moved.Instead, she clenched her fingers so hard that they went pale as she encouraged herself inwardly.She must not flee—it was not like she could anyway.She must save herself instead.And at that moment, a fantasy appeared amid her despair.It had been ten years since she showed up with Henry's pendant and took the name of Orange.And Henry doted on her for ten years, a superior being who always caved to her, doing everything she asked and trusting her unconditionally—loving her by a hundred percent.It left her lost in it, and even now, bits of their past pl

    Linda was convinced that Henry must be really in love with her and continued her sob story, using her past to invoke Henry's feelings for her.A successful man like him would never dedicate his life to the promise he made to a five-year-old girl who had only been with him for six months.The fact that Henry did not interrupt her only added to her confidence, and she cried even louder and laid bare their relationship. "Day after day, I tried to tell you countless times, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it when you were so close to me… So I kept telling myself that when the real Orange showed up, I shall let her reclaim her rightful place…" "Ha! Hahaha!" Mrs. Smith laughed coldly, cutting Linda short while glaring at her coldly from a distance.The audacity of that woman to say that!Linda was clearly stumped—she was so preoccupied with making Henry believe they loved each other that she forgot about the hag!And Mrs. Smith did not give Linda time to be preoccupied either an

    Henry's face was contorted in disgust, and he did not hold back his strength as he kicked Linda, launching her away from him like a piece of trash.Even as she landed pathetically, it happened too quickly that Linda's mind blanked out.She could not believe what had just happened for a few seconds, and reality sank in when the pain struck her.She did not imagine it—Henry really did just get violent with her.She looked up in disbelief at Henry who was barely a few feet away, blinking away her tears to clear her vision.It was only then that she could have a clear look at Henry, and she was watching ever so solemnly, as she tried to look for any pain or remorse on his face.Even just a tiny bit.However, there was none.Henry's expression was endlessly cold, and the fiery rage in his eyes could consume her.Tears welled up in Linda's eyes just then.This time, it was not to curry Henry's sympathy—her heart was simply broken.But she refused to believe Henry felt nothing for

    As Mrs. Smith finished, she closed her eyes in exhaustion.She had just woken up, and she was at her limit.Tina did not stay as she was worried about her and followed her to the hospital, while Henry did not, as he had more important things to do.He watched as their car left and strode up to Linda."Henry…"Seeing him come back to her, and that there were just the two of them, Linda's eyes lit up with hope.As Henry dropped to a crouch, she was ready to throw herself into his arms and cry, only for him to grab her by her neck as soon as she moved.As his fingers clenched around her throat with a vice-like grip, Linda's eyes widened in terror.Unable to breathe, she reached up to pull his hand by instinct, stuttering as she could hardly speak, "Henry… Let go… It hurts!"She leveled a pained look at Henry, to show that she was really in pain, but Henry completely ignored her, clenching even harder, and demanded, "Did you murder Sophie and Grandma?"Without the halo of Orange

    As soon as Henry parked his black Ghost downstairs of the hospital where Mrs. Smith was admitted, he hurried out, carrying the favorite fruits he remembered she used to like.He wanted to see Mrs. Smith, and Tina even more so.However, just as he stepped out of the elevator, he ran into Tina, who was just leaving Mrs. Smith's room to pick up some groceries downstairs."Tina!" Henry exclaimed, at once excited as he rushed toward her.His dark gaze was fixed on Tina, and he could not help reaching toward her, intent on taking her into his arms and having her melt into him.The instant he learned that Tina was the real Orange, he felt rage from Linda's deception that lasted a decade.However, he also felt irrepressible delight—strictly speaking, he had never cheated on Orange.Nevertheless, Tina was frowning—a stark contrast from Henry's thrill.The instant he got near, she stepped backward, avoiding him like the plague.Henry stopped abruptly, as if someone had pressed the pause

    While Tina used to wonder what would happen if she met Ice again, all she wanted was for him to stay as far away from her as possible upon learning that Ice was Henry."Tina…"Henry wanted to tell her that he would find evidence, and that Linda would wish she were dead if there was solid proof that she was guilty.However, Tina did not want to listen to his nonsense.In fact, she really could not even be bothered to be disappointed in him after learning that he only had Linda locked up at the precinct."Get out! Don't make me slap you again!" she snapped, her tone even colder now.That was when Mrs. Smith called out, "Is that Henry? Let him in!"Mrs. Smith had been sleeping after she was rushed to the hospital, but the commotion outside woke her up, and she called out when she heard Henry.And as soon as Henry heard her, he let his eyes linger on Tina for a moment but soon strode past Tina into the room.The rim of his eyes reddened as soon as he saw Mrs. Smith staring at him

    Rory asked, "Daddy? Is that my birthday present?"At the same time, she knew very well that if Henry saw what that straw doll really was, he would be absolutely furious.That was why he must not let him see at any cost.However, Henry was still glowering as he threw the gift aside, taking a step forward and glaring at her menacingly. "Show it to me!""Daddy…"More tears gushed from Rory's eyes, as if Henry terrified her.And yet, she gingerly reached out, tugging on the hem of Henry's shirt, chirping sweetly, "Daddy, you're scaring me. Don't look at me like that."At that moment, she was once again the Rory that Henry was so familiar with.Mature and obedient.Kind and innocent.Guileless and harmless.But Henry could not forget about the Rory he saw just now.And seeing that she kept trying to manipulate him, he lost all patience and pushed her aside, while reaching for the blanket with his other hand."Daddy! Don't look!"Rory cried as she lunged over in a panic to stop

    As Henry opened the door, he was left staring in shock as Rory knelt before her own bed, her young, dainty face contorted with sinister malice that did not suit her age.Just seeing that left Henry wondering if this was still the sweet, disciplined Rory whom he knew? He just could not connect that other Rory with the one he was looking at now.As she held a tiny straw doll in one hand and a long needle in the other, cursing Sophie's name while stabbing the needle repeatedly into the straw doll, it was clear that the straw doll was meant to represent Sophie.A fire flared inside Henry's mind—Sophie's death had always been an agony to him, and he owed her plenty and wanted nothing less than to give her a better afterlife.More than that, he yearned for the day that Tina forgave him, and then they could have another child.With that, Sophie could reincarnate and become their daughter once more, so he would have a chance to make amends.When he yearned for those things so much, how

    After Henry found out that Tina was the real Orange, watching the footage of Sophie only made him regret even more.He really wanted to go back to seven years ago and beat his past self up violently.Even as he looked tearfully at Sophie—the child of her and Orange's love, so cute and pretty on the screen—he thought she should have grown up pampered as the happiest princess.And yet, he had scorned her even before she was born and treated her with utter insignificance after she was born.Just thinking about how she looked at him, yearning for her fatherly affection, left his heart feeling like it was being stabbed a thousand times over."I'm so sorry, Sophie! Can you come back to me?" he asked, gently brushing his finger against her photo on the gravestone.However, there was no answer to his question, and he felt like he was stabbed again as he kept watching the video alone in the cold winter night.When the video was finished, his tears covered his face.The more Sophie loved

    Rory was endlessly confident that she mattered most in her daddy's heart.However, Henry usually arrived very early on her birthdays. When he did not show up by eight, Rory called his number, but no one answered.Still, she was afraid to keep calling and instead texted him.[Daddy, when are you coming?]Once again, there was no answer—he did not pick up as she tried to call later too, and nor did he show up as noon arrived.Even as she felt disheartened, she peered at Linda with the corner of her eye.Linda had gone the extra mile to look pretty, as she had promised to persuade Henry so that they could celebrate her birthday together.She quickly tried to call Henry as there was no sign of him, and they continued to wait all the way to the evening.Meanwhile, Linda had already received the message that Henry had gone to Sophie's grave first thing in the morning and never left since.Furious, she steered her wheelchair and rammed into Rory, knocking her to the floor, all whil

    Linda told Rory that Sophie was Henry's real daughter.Because they were connected by blood, if they spent more time with each other and bonded, Rory would become unimportant because she was not really Henry's daughter.There was no way Rory would let Sophie take her daddy away, so she agreed to let Linda make her sick.Then, Linda waited until Henry was on the way to the amusement park before calling him, to make sure Henry would walk out on Sophie.After that, Linda told her that Sophie had stupidly waited for half a day at the amusement park and died.Sophie was really stupid—she knew that Henry did not love her, but she still thought she could steal Henry away from Rory on her birthday!However, because Sophie died, Henry never took her to the amusement park last year for her, even though he had promised to do it every year.Still, seeing that Henry was silent, she promptly played the mature daughter and said, "It's alright, Daddy—I was just asking. It's okay if you just spe

    Henry nodded. "Good."After Andy left and Yancy arrived, Rory already changed into fresh clothes, hugging Henry's arm as she sat beside him on the couch, leaning on him with an utterly clingy look.Yancy went over and examined her before concluding, "She's lucky you found her in time and didn't catch a cold. But you have to be more careful—she's still recovering and wouldn't survive an infection."And with those instructions, Yancy left.The rim of her eyes reddened, Rory knew she was in the wrong and apologized, "I'm sorry, Daddy. I should have behaved instead of making you worry. It won't happen again.""As long as you understand. Don't do something like that ever again," Henry rebuked her, but his tone was gentle.Rory nodded repeatedly and threw herself into his arms As Henry still had work to do, he was going to ask Andy to take her home, but she refused. "It's been two weeks, Daddy. I'll stay with you a little longer. I promise to stay in a corner and read my books withou

    Rory was crouching at a corner of the office building, her clothes soaked through and her tiny form curled up.She was trembling in the cold as she looked at Henry."Rory!" Henry's eyes widened and he hurried over, catching some of the rain as his bodyguard could not keep up with him.Still, Henry could not care less as he rushed to Rory's side, taking off his suit jacket and wrapping it around Rory, and then scooped her stiff little body up in his arms.As he did, he felt her hands too—they were as cold as ice, leaving his heart tightening.Her large eyes were filled with tears, and she was not behaving like before.After all, whenever Henry picked her up, she would always hug his neck, calling him 'Daddy' sweetly as she leaned her cheeks on his chest.In the winter rain, the chilling winds cut to the bone.Even though Henry had realized that something was wrong with Rory, he did not ask her immediately, but instead strode into the building with her in his arms and took the el

    "I need some rest, Rory," he said, his tone a little cool. "I'll drop by later to visit. Just go home and get some rest."It was meant as a warning to Linda as well, to discourage her from using Rory to bridge the distance between them ever again."Daddy…"However, it was the first time Henry was being that cold toward Rory. Before he could reach her, Andy stopped her, "Please, Rory—Mr. Barnes is really feeling ill and needs rest. If you really care, you should listen instead of bothering him further."Rory pursed her lips as she stood at the doorway, her tears welling up in her eyes as she leveled a doleful look at Henry.However, as Henry closed his eyes and she could not get anything from him, she left, looking back every other step.She was very much panicking—was Henry really angry at her this time?And if Henry did not love her, then Linda would not either.What could she do at that point?Nonetheless, she got downstairs and got into a car parked outside.And seeing h

    "It doesn't hurt. Really," John teased, seeing the grim look on Tina's face.Annoyed, Tina shot him a glare and pressed on the cotton bud.John gasped, "Oof…"Tina promptly withdrew her hand but still scoffed. "I thought you said it didn't hurt!""My bad!" John promptly apologized—he simply could not be harsh on her.Still, Tina became even gentler then as she worked meticulously.At the same time, Tina's phone kept jingling with text messages, all of which were from Henry, who kept apologizing.However, she only picked up her phone after disinfecting John's face and did not read a single text as she blocked Henry.John then led her to the main bedroom, where the sheets were already changed.He really was attentive as ever.Nonetheless, Tina was really spent. "Goodnight.""Goodnight," John replied and lit some scented candles to help her sleep, while Tina lay under her warm sheets.Outside, the rain was getting heavier.She thought she would stay wide awake after the night
