Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 69
Linda certainly had the look of a mother who would do anything as long as their child was fine. "I thought I could pretend nothing ever happened as long as you understood you made a mistake—""How are you this good? Hollywood really owes you an Oscar."Tina smirked in disdain, cutting her short impatiently. "Also, are you done? Like I said—where's your proof?"Since she did not do it, she doubted that Linda could show any proof at all.If anything, Linda had the guts to frame her solely because Henry trusted her unconditionally.Linda's eyes went red as if in desperation, and she shrieked, "Fine! Proof, you say?!"She lifted the man by the collar, shaking him in agitation, "Talk! Who gave you my address?! Who sent you after us?!"The man merely leveled a ferocious glare at Linda but said nothing.Seeing that Tina remained calm as if it was none of her business, Henry glanced at Andy, who promptly leaped up and took the man off Linda's hands.Then, throwing him to the ground, h

Linda glanced at Henry from the corner of her eye.Worried that Tina's calmness would make him doubt her, she kept snapping at Tina, "You're such a horrible woman! How could you do such a thing without your conscience hurting? Is it because of Madam Barnes?! Do you think you can do anything you like, now that she's back?!"She did not just make sure to use words that would touch Henry's nerves either—she started to bawl and wobble as if she was falling apart.As if she had proof but could not do anything about Tina.Once she was done, she glanced at Henry to see a scary glower on his face.It was all over for Tina now—she was not going to leave in one piece once she was locked up!As Linda lowered her face, her eyes flashed viciously.Still, before she called the cops, Henry suddenly growled, "Andy, go to the precinct.""Yes, Mr. Barnes." Andy strode up and dragged the man out.On the other hand, Tina could not quite keep up.However, she had done nothing and was therefore no

"Shut up!"The mere mention of the police left Henry's expression darkening as he glared at Tina. "You really are fearless."At that point, Tina understood.Henry believed Linda, thinking that Tina insisted on going to the cops not because she was innocent, but because she had Madam Barnes' backing.It was fine as Madam Barnes loved Tina and despised Linda, and she would use the family influence to bail Tina out unscathed—just like how Henry brainlessly protected Linda.If that happened, he could not get payback for his beloved woman and daughter.Tina thought that her heart was impervious, but at that moment, her heart still stung terribly.She bit her lip and whipped out her phone—even if he did not want to call the cops, she could do it herself!However, she had just pressed the numbers when a hand snatched it out of her grasp before she could dial."Give it back!" Tina snapped, reaching out to grab it.However, Henry turned it off and threw it on the couch.Missing her m

"Hah!"Henry snorted, ignoring her resistance, and pried her hands off again.Tina held on to the door in turn, her nails digging in.But it was pointless even as she used all her strength as Henry pried off each finger and shut the door mercilessly in her face.Darkness engulfed her in an instant, and Tina pried the handle to find that it was locked from the outside.The terror she buried in the depths of her heart swelled, while all color drained from her cheeks.Smacking the door in agitation, she cried, "Open the door! Let me out! You have no right to lock me up without evidence!"There was only silence."Henry Barnes! Can't you hear me?! Let me out! You have no right to lock me up!"Still, silence.Tina trembled all over, but she fought to stay calm as she fumbled through the darkness to look around for a switch.She felt around in the darkness and finally found it, feeling hope once more as she flipped it.Click.The darkness remained—the wiring had been cut.Tina's

And now, Henry pushed Tina into the same hell with his own hands, just to punish her for Linda and Rory, torturing Tina with her worst fears.Her throat felt like it was seized by a formless hand that clenched harder by the second, so much so that she could not breathe.She was on her knees as she tried her best to loosen her collar, her lips opened feebly as she gasped for air.But she was still suffocating, as her nerves were at their limit.Struck by terror, even her voice was a lot softer now as she gave in, allowing herself to be vulnerable in Henry's presence. "Let me out… Henry… Open the door…"She called his name repeatedly as she hit the door, her voice trembling and almost unintelligible.He knew she was terrified but did not care.The darkness magnified her senses, and she could hear the faintest sounds outside as she pressed herself against the door.She could hear the footsteps and knew Henry was right outside.She could even imagine his haughty glare, poising him
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 74
Tina broke.Her tears welling out of her eyes, she crawled back to the door, hitting it limply with her bleeding fingers.Even as she left palm prints of blood, she no longer felt pain as she cried and pleaded to the man outside, "Please let me out, I'm begging you…"'Don't be so cruel!'Her words were filled with endless bitterness.However, it was Linda who stood outside, folding her arms before her chest.She kept silent, allowing Tina to presume that she was Henry, grinning as she listened to Tina beg in her despair.Even if she could not see inside, Tina's voice was enough to tell her how terrible a state Tina was in, and it was so much more pleasant than having Tina arrested.With Madam Barnes back and how protective she was of Tina, Tina would have been bailed out even before Linda's accomplices could do a thing.Locking Tina here was the worst torture possible instead!That was for trying to steal Henry from her! Tina could take her time and enjoy her stay!Still, Li

The room heating system was turned on, and the warmth was just right, but Rory cringed when her clothes were taken off.Still sleeping, she snuggled up to Linda in her arms. Even if Linda was not the best of mothers, she was her only mother, and Rory was dependent on her down to her core.But Linda was not relenting from the intimacy as she turned off the room heating system.Then, she carried Rory into the bathroom and turned on the cold water, causing the temperature to drop right away.Linda watched as the tub filled and touched the surface, immediately feeling a painful chill.Feeling the cold, Rory's teeth chattered as she pressed herself deeper into Linda's arms. "Hug me, Mommy… I'm so cold…"Linda's heart almost caved, but remembering that Tina was in the basement, she did not hesitate to shove Rory into the tub.The icy water quickly flooded over Rory's scrawny body, and Rory shuddered even as she slept but could not wake up because of her medication.Her teeth kept cha

At Barnes Ranch the next day, Madam Barnes was telling Sam, "Send word to the kitchen—tell them to cook some of Tina's favorite food for dinner.""Yes, ma'am." Sam bowed his head and left.Madam Barnes then took out her phone, texting Tina instead of calling since Tina would be at work.[I had the kitchen make your favorites for dinner. Do drop by after work.]She did not wait for a reply since Tina might be busy and went upstairs from a nap.However, Tina never replied even when Madam Barnes woke up, and it was past 4 pm. Madam Barnes then finally called."Sorry, the device you are calling has been turned off."Madam Barnes frowned—there was no way Tina would turn off her phone while at work.Scowling, she called Henry, but no one answered either.As such, she called Andy instead. "Where's Henry?""He's in a meeting, ma'am," Andy answered calmly.He knew that Madam Barnes despised Linda and would throw a fit if she found out that Henry had been staying with Linda and Rory s

Had Henry considered the possibility that things would go bad, and that something worse might happen?Or perhaps he really did not care at all?With her mind riddled by drugs, she could not hold back her thoughts right then, shouting so hard her voice broke, "You were watching as he drugged me, just because I refused to listen and went on this blind date?! So that he can do what he wants with me?! Is that how you want me to learn?!"Henry stayed silent.Taking it as an admission, Tina felt a coldness creep up from her toes to the rest of her body and pushed Henry off with all her strength.Still, she had to lean against the wall with both hands, but just as Henry was going to pull her away with him, the elevators opened again.Then, a lofty, handsome figure strode down the hallway.It was John Levine, who reached Tina with just a few strides of his long legs. "Are you alright, Ms. Smith?"They had never met ever since she came clean to John at the hospital, and it was not easy

Martin chuckled gleefully. "You can shout yourself hoarse—no one's going to hear you."He had specifically picked this restaurant because it respected their guests' privacy, and the rooms were famously soundproof.A glint of excitement showed in his eyes as he looked downward at the cut on his hand too, surprised that the mild-mannered woman was that wild!But that was exactly it—he liked them wild!The wilder they were, the more thrilling it got!With that, he strode up.Knowing that she was about to lose even her ability to fight and that he was a grown man, Tina kept reaching for the door.Before she could open it, Martin grabbed her hair and pulled, dragging her way from the door.The automatic door shut, just as she managed to open it a little…"Get away from me!" Tina shrieked as she swung the knife at Martin once more, but he was prepared this time, catching her wrist and squeezing.Tina dropped the knife in pain, now defenseless. Martin pulled her into his arms, hol

As for Linda, she was smiling ever slightly as Martin's car sped off into the distance…-Once they were far enough, Tina turned to Martin and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for wasting your time, Mr. Levine, but I didn't want this blind date. You can drop me off at the next subway stop.""Actually, the same goes for me too."Martin chuckled. "Just family duties, I guess. But I guess we could still have dinner together, so that our elders would have something to work with?""Okay." Tina nodded, relaxing at Martin's words.With that, Martin took her to a restaurant, and though they walked side-by-side, there was proper social distancing.Arriving at the room he booked, he chivalrously pulled out a chair for her, asking, "What wine do you prefer, Ms. Smith?""Sorry, I don't drink." Tina smiled, refusing as she was a poor drinker.For his part, Martin did not force her, instead asking a waiter to pop open a red wine for himself while ordering something warm for Tina."Thank yo

Madam Barnes had waited until working hours were over to check on the progress.Still, it took Tina a while to realize who Mr. Levine was—he was her blind date."Is he here?" she asked."Yes." Madam Barns chuckled. "I know you're supposed to meet him at the restaurant, but Mr. Levine said he could pick you up since he's going in the same direction. Go on, don't keep the man waiting."Madam Barnes was quite enthusiastic, clearly pleased about the blind date she had arranged for Tina."Alright, I'll go now," Tina replied, not keen to keep someone waiting.After packing up and heading downstairs, she immediately saw a black Ghost outside the building.It was Henry's car, and he was inside, with the window lowered.Tina just happened to meet Henry's eyes, and Linda saw that. Though briefly surprised to see him looking at her, she pretended to wave at their colleagues to block his gaze."Henry's taking me home now. Bye!"With a sweet smile, she got into the car and leaned toward

Henry's dark gaze seemed to darken further as he saw her earlobes flush so hard that they could bleed.As he looked down, he saw plenty of other parts flushing attractively too.His breathing turning heavy, he turned Tina's face toward himself, holding her chin and kissed her."Mmph!"Tina tried to fight back, shaking her head to avoid his kiss.However, she could not as Henry kept pressing down, and the kiss left her breathless.It was only then that he slowly pulled away.Utterly mad, Tina opened her mouth and bit down dead center of his upper lip as soon as she was freed, all while glaring at him spitefully.Henry let her do so as if it did not hurt him and punished her twice as viciously.Nonetheless, the car drove out of Barnes Ranch and onto the main road. As it was rush hour, there were plenty of other cars around them.Although the windows were tinted and one would not be able to see inside, Tina—still pressed against the window—often found herself meeting the stare
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 95
As Tina hurried outside, she immediately saw the black Maybach parked there.It was the car that Madam Barnes had arranged for her, but as she arched her back to enter the backseat, she immediately noticed someone else inside.Her head jerked up as she saw the tall man reclining against the backseat, with half of his face hidden in the darkness.It was Henry, crumpling the unlit cigarette in his left hand and glaring at her dangerously.Tian scowled and paused, and she promptly started to back out. She refused to stay in the same car with him!However, though she responded quickly, Henry was quicker.As soon as she moved, he threw his cigarette aside and reached out, grabbed her wrist, and pulled.And once he dragged Tina into the car, he pressed the button to lock the door, snapping at the same time, "Drive!"The chauffeur naturally did not dare to disobey the head of the family.Lifting his foot off the brakes at Henry's order, he jammed it down on the gas pedal while rai

Linda sobbed. "I was just so upset, so I threw in some rats to get even for Rory. I just love Rory so much, Henry… That's why I did it."Rory would always be her trump card—Henry loved the child, and he would not hold anything against her just because she said it was for Rory's sake.And seeing that Henry was silent, Linda purred at him again, "I can't sleep, Henry. I can see the snakes whenever I close my eyes… Can you come to the hospital and spend the night with me?""It's late. Get some rest," Henry replied quietly and hung up right then.When Linda said that she kept seeing those snakes when she closed her eyes, Henry remembered that Tina had been locked in the basement for far longer and would not be able to sleep too.-Tina locked the door after Henry left, but as he was family, he could go anywhere he liked, even if it was Madam Barnes' house.A servant brought the keys, and Henry entered.Tina could have slept soundly for a few hours with medication, but Henry woke he
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 93
Linda sobbed softly as she told Henry about all the torment she had gone through in that basement, every word undoubtedly invoking Henry's rage.As she continued, she could clearly feel the air around him turning cold.Eventually, Linda buried her face against his chest, her lips curled up in glee.She did say she would get back at Tina when she got out anyway.-Tina was not sleeping at Henry's house in Barnes Ranch for the night, instead sleeping in her own room in Madam Barnes' house.She had a fright, so Madam Barnes had her servants make her soup to calm her nerves and bring some scented candles with a soothing aroma to her room.Tina thought it might work, only for her to see the basement whenever she closed her eyes.Unable to sleep, she took out her sleeping pills from her bag, tossing and turning for a while before eventually dozing off.However, when she almost fell asleep, she was lifted firmly off the bed as Henry's chilling tone rang overhead. "How could you sleep
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 92
Since Henry could not tell how great Tina was, Madam Barnes would get someone who loved her and cherished her instead.Walking up to Tina and talking to her hand, she said, "I'll definitely get you a good man."Tina shook her head. "I'm fine, Grandma."Henry was right that she would not go, but it was not because she loved him too much as he believed.She just could not spare the time when she had yet to avenge Sophie.Nonetheless, Madam Barnes sighed as she said earnestly, "I just want someone to be there for you."She certainly had her own motives in trying to get Tina together with Henry.Henry was her dearest grandson, and Tina loved him very much, so she could be at ease since Tina would definitely be good to him.At the same time, she would also like Henry to protect Tina from harm.Now, she understood.As long as Linda was around, she could not count on Henry—she needed to find Tina another man who would be her shelter.Still, Tina leaned on Madam Barnes' shoulder and
