Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 60
As Henry approached, his powerful masculine musk shrouded her, with Linda's perfume in the mix.The combination of the two—the hint of flirting—left Tina retching. "Bleurgh!""Don't you dare!"Henry's face dropped, and he promptly released her to sidestep away, remembering how Tina had vomited into his face before.Still, Tina did not let it out—she seized the moment to stride toward a bench, reclining against it to ease her dizziness.Once she caught her breath, she ignored Henry and whipped out her phone, ready to call for a cab.Henry stood there, watching her with an impassive gaze before taking out his phone too and tapped on the screen a few times before pocketing it again.Before Tina could get a cab, a bank app notification appeared on her screen.She tapped on it and was left staring at a wire transfer from Henry, and she frowned at the number of zeros.What?Tina was too sluggish from alcohol to understand, until Henry's deep voice spoke overhead, "It's twice the pr
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 61
Henry was ready to jump into the pond when he saw Tina stand up, and he scowled as he forcefully grabbed her wrist, pulling her out of the pond.Then, he quickly took off her coat and wrapped her in his to block off the chill.Tina tried to struggle as his scent filled her nostrils again, but he held her by the waist firmly in his arms, looking her in the eye. "Go on, fight it. Call in sick on your second day at work."Tina settled down, and Henry scooped her up in his arms.There was no one in the garden given the weather, but it was bustling at the entrance.Not keen on being seen, Tina pulled up the lapels to hide her face.Henry watched her, his gaze darkening.-The manager had arranged for a car, and Henry carried Tina inside.Still, she pulled away as soon as they were in, pressing herself against the car door while telling the chauffeur, "Maple Park, please."With those words, he turned to stare outside the window, very obviously ignoring Henry's presence.Henry star

Henry's dark gaze then lingered on Tina's lips that were purple from the cold, and he released her hand."Turn around!" she snapped."Hehe."Henry chuckled in amusement despite her serious glare, as if to ask if there was an inch of her body he had not seen or touched.What was the point of looking away?Still, Tina remained silent and kept glaring, only taking off her pants when he turned but still watching him from the corner of her eye.She arched her back, struggling as the fabric was clinging to her skin, while her coat fell off.Unbeknownst to her, the car window was reflective.And even though it was just a vague image, Henry knew her body all too well.As he stared at her reflection, he recalled her long, fair legs coiling around his hips countless times.She had been soft and tame, assuming a million different positions as he did what he liked to her.He gulped, his eyes darkening as if he could devour her in an instant.Tina managed to pull her wet pants off with
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 63
It was precisely because Tina was well aware that Henry had broken his promise that all these sketches were Sophie's imagination.Every brush and stroke was a knife that cut into her heart—Sophie's expectation and love hurt her all the more.She could not help wondering how disappointed Sophie must have been, waiting in the blistering cold for over half a day, but her father never showed up.No, he never even showed up as she was dying, instead taking Rory to Wonderland.How hurt had she been then?Tina's tears blurred her vision instantly and welled out of her eyes.-Meanwhile, Henry could not find Tina in the main bedroom after cooking some soup and strode over to Sophie's room when he noticed the light inside.He entered to find Tina sitting quietly in front of Sophie's desk.She did not hear him even though he was being loud.He strode over, about to ask what caught her attention, when he noticed the sketches on the table.It was the caption above that caught his attent

Henry felt like something was stuck in his throat, choking him.Eventually, he rasped, "Sorry."He did not think that something so insignificant like visiting an amusement park was so important to Sophie.Tina closed her eyes when she heard the apology.As she opened them again, she slowly turned, leveling her puffy red eyes straight as his with hatred as she growled every word. "Sorry?! Your apology is worth nothing!"Henry saw that she was losing her mind and remembered how she had begged him on her knees.He had been busy then—Rory was complaining about being afraid of her surgery, and he had promised to stay with her.He immediately refused Tina as soon as he asked, but surprised that Tina would go that far to beg him, he eventually relented, only to break that promise."I made a mistake. I'll make it up to Sophie," Henry said, humble around Tina for once.However, Tina clenched her knuckle and strode up menacingly instead of relenting. "Make it up to her?! How?! Do you kn
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 65
Henry's brow eased as Tina finally relented."Alright." He promptly stood up, taking her hand and hurrying outside impatiently.Once they got in, he helped her with her seatbelt while asking, "Where to?""I'll point the way," Tina replied, as she was worried that Henry would call her crazy like before if she said it was the graveyard."Okay." Henry shrugged, too happy about seeing Sophie again to be petty.As he drove out of the garage, neither of them spoke as they were both caught up with their emotions.Tina kept her eyes on the road, giving directions seriously until Henry's phone rang halfway.It was a call from Linda.Hearing that familiar ringtone, Tina's body stiffened, and she promptly turned to Henry.He turned to her as well, and seeing her cool glare, he was able to tell that she did not want him to answer his phone.Henry gave in and declined the call, only for his phone to ring again.When he was about to answer, Tina warned icily, "This is your last chance. Mi
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 66
Linda's eyes were red and swollen from crying as she begged, "Please, just let go of my daughter—we can talk about this. My daughter is innocent—don't hurt her, please!"As Henry watched, she even bowed repeatedly and forcefully but was seemingly unaware of the pain or that she was bleeding as she continued.Henry's face dropped, and he shook off Tina as he rushed inside, knocking her off balance and dropping to the floor.She had her back against the wall, taking moments to fight back the dizziness and look up.From her angle, she just happened to see the side of Linda's face, who looked at the man while she looked up between bows.There was no fear or plea in her eyes. If anything, it looked like a signal…Still, Tina was in a daze and wondered if she was seeing things.Even she could not believe that Linda was crazy enough to hurt her own daughter!Nonetheless, Linda once again had her head down when Tina's eyes cleared, while the man suddenly bellowed, "Innocent?! Your da
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 67
Just as Henry finished, they heard a purr of an engine, and Andy soon rushed inside with Carl Sandler.Carl spotted Tina on the floor first and was ready to examine her since she looked terrible."Get over here. Rory's hurt," Henry growled icily right then.Tina looked up to see the hostile glare on his eyes, as if saying that she was trivial and who cared if she died because Rory mattered most!Carl stared at Tina for another beat but soon turned, taking his medical briefcase from Andy and hurried over, crouching by the couch to examine Rory."Don't worry, sir—her vitals are fine. I'll stitch her up now."As Rory was a child, he applied a local anesthetic before tending to her injuries.However, she was still in shock and trembling in Henry's arms.Henry watched her with a tender smile, patiently comforting her.Tina looked on, remembering the moment when Sophie was first sent to the hospital.Every other child had fathers hovering around them, comforting them—but not her.

Tina glared viciously at Henry, who was pig-brained whenever Linda was concerned. "That pendant was never Linda's! She got it from someone else! You had the wrong person from the start!"If it was not for her mother, Madam Barnes, and Sophie's sake, she would not even bother talking to Henry, as she did not want him to keep protecting Linda mindlessly because he thought she was her savior.Otherwise, he could treat Linda as whoever he thought she was—she would not care!Henry stared at Tina in turn, asking before he knew it, "If Linda isn't Orange, then who is?"That was when Linda suddenly appeared at the doorway, crying out tearfully before Tina could speak, "Tina! What do I have to do for you to stop?!"You paid off Zach Foster to try to turn Henry against me! Now that it has gone south, you're lying to Henry that I'm not Orange! What do you want from me?!"And I'm not Orange, you say? Then who's Orange? You?!"However, Tina's eyes flared with irrational hatred the instant Li

Henry's eyes widened, unable to believe what he was hearing.It was Linda? How could it be so?!On the other hand, Mrs. Fuller could not help cringing from the cold air that seemed to spill from Henry.There was no turning back now that she already betrayed Linda, and she was genuinely terrified of Henry. As such, she decided to turn to Tina, who, between the two, was much more agreeable.She really did not want to end up in prison, and hence started begging, "Please, Ms. Smith—I'll tell you everything I know, just don't call the cops on me."Trust me—I never wanted to hurt your mother… But Linda Cook paid me so much, and I was tricked into doing such a thing."I have a big family with many mouths to feed… they're all hopeless without me. And you're so kind—you're not going to destroy my family, right?"Mrs. Fuller could have spent the money for her son's future, and then assumed a new identity to keep working.But now that she was exposed, she thought she could bank on Tina'
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 418
"Argh!!!"Mrs. Fuller could feel her collarbone breaking, and the agony left her face contorting!At that moment, she realized that Tina and Henry might have noticed something.But that should not be possible!She made sure the hallways were clear and even closed the curtains just in case.No one should have known!Still, even as Mrs. Fuller panicked, she told herself to stay calm.That was when Tina pulled out the IV drip needle and got out of bed."Tina!"Henry noticed that right away and turned to hold her down by her shoulder. "Just leave this to me. I'll make sure she suffers."She was too weak now, after all.However, Tina shook his hand off and strode toward Mrs. Fuller.Henry frowned but did not stop her since she was insistent, staying behind her while keeping a close eye on her.Mrs. Fuller was naturally relieved that it was Tina, who was definitely more agreeable between her and Henry.Henry was so scary that just one look made Mrs. Fuller think she was going t
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 417
However, Mrs. Fuller soon composed herself and leveled a wounded look at Tina."If you think it's my fault that this happened to Mrs. Smith, then I quit!" she snapped, tears welling up in her eyes as she complained, looking utterly aggrieved. "I believe I've done everything I could to take good care of your mother and have never once slacked. She has been good to me and treated me like her sister."I know that Mrs. Smith had an accident while I was away, and you held it against me. That was my negligence, and I'm sorry because I shouldn't have left her alone."But you can't blame her for going to shock me over one instance of negligence. You have no evidence and yet you still suspect me! You're breaking my heart!"However, Tina's question was just probing at best.There were just too many coincidences—Mrs. Smith first had an accident, and then went into shock in the half hour when she was gone.But it would all make sense if this was all done on purpose.And if it was, then Mrs.
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 416
Mrs. Fuller had heard rumors of her colleagues doing the same thing, with none being the wiser.So she could not help being interested—and did it.She was supposed to take Mrs. Smith's life right then and there and was surprised by a nurse who came in doing her rounds.Hearing the nurse come in, Mrs. Fuller promptly reattached Mrs. Smith's oxygen tube and hurried off to a corner to look busy. Mrs. Smith had already gone into shock by then, and the nurse immediately noticed that something was wrong.Mrs. Fuller played along, feigning panic when the nurse pressed the call button.Everything went smoothly—even if Mrs. Smith survived, she was in a vegetative state and was no different from dead.Just the thought that she would soon get 500 grand left Mrs. Fuller's hands shaking in excitement. [She's not dead, but she's in a vegetative state. Dr. Sandler even told Ms. Smith to prepare for the worst, so she might be gone before long anyway.]Linda could not help smiling smugly whe
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 415
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 414
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 412
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
