Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 77
Tina's cheeks were as white as a sheet as she lay on a hospital bed, while Madam Barnes asked a doctor worriedly, "How is she?""She fainted from arrhythmia but made it in time. If she were brought in even a second later, she would've died from shock."The diagnosis left Madam Barnes shaking with rage.Her chest heaving as she thumped her cane on the floor, she snarled through her teeth, "That vile spawn!"Henry knew Tina was terrified of basements, but he had locked her up in there for so long!Was he trying to kill her?!Sam hurried to Madam Barnes worriedly. "Please, Ma'am. Your health…"However, his advice fell on deaf ears until a cool hand reached Madam Barnes' wrinkled hand, calling out hoarsely, "Grandma…"Madam Barnes flinched as she promptly grasped Tina's hand in return, rubbing it in her palms to warm it while asking in concern, "Yes, Tina—I'm right here. Are you feeling alright?"Tears welled up in Tina's eyes right then. "I'm alright. I'm just hungry."Madam Bar

Then, the burly man kicked Linda, sending her tumbling into the car.Her head struck the car seat hard, and she was still in a daze when she felt her hair being grabbed."Argh!"She screamed shrilly as she was pulled inside and forced to look up to a pair of cool eyes.It was Tina—she had come to make Linda pay!Still, Linda's panic faded as soon as she saw that it was Tina, and she sat up fearlessly, even raising her brow at the woman who was left haggard and pale after a night of torture.Talk about dumb luck, coming out unscathed!And it went without saying that Madam Barnes must have freed Tina!Despite her frustration, Linda still noticed Tina's bandaged fingers and felt endless glee as she begged endlessly last night.However, she did not let her feelings show, fearlessly asking as if a damsel in distress, "Why are you doing, Tina? Let me go!"You know how much Henry loves me. If he finds out that you didn't learn your lesson and hurt me again, he would get upset… and w
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 79
In the silence inside the car, Linda was left staring at Tina as she kept her eyes out of the window, unsure of what she was up to.Could she actually have been mistaken?Linda also knew that whoever spoke first would lose the advantage but could not help it anyway, as she snapped at Tina, "What do you want?"She always had kept this woman and the bastard the woman had given birth to under her thumb.Tina had no right poising herself so loftily in her presence!"You'll find out soon enough," Tina replied quietly with a meaningful look.Linda seemed to see something she could not recognize in Tina's eyes just then, and not knowing left her dreading.Even as Tina watched her, she started to get flustered but forced it back as she snarled through her teeth, "If you hurt me, Henry will definitely get you for this!"Right now, she was hearing two voices.One told her that Tina would never dare to hurt her.Be it before she headed abroad or after she returned, she had exploited Hen
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 80
The favor that Tina had asked from Madam Barnes was to investigate the attack on Linda and her daughter, though Madam Barnes told Tina that she had already done so.While Tina's number had been used to contact that thug, it had been hijacked—she had an alibi of the login time and location, which proved her innocence.Sam had investigated Linda as well but could not find any evidence against her, as she had never met that man before, and there was no record of any contact between them.And if Madam Barnes could not find anything, that meant that there was nothing to be found.With that evidence, they could at best prove Tina's innocence to Henry—they certainly could not expose Linda's true nature and that she had orchestrated the attack.That was why Tina refused Madam Barnes' suggestion to show Henry the proof and to demand his apology and penitence.To Tina, an apology was pointless—the damage was already done.How much would it be worth anyway?Moreover, Henry cared so little
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 81
Tina held zero hope in Henry now.Linda had been banking on his obsession to pin the blame on her, goading him to lock her in that basement and torturing her.While Tina was not about to forget that grudge, she wanted Linda to have a taste of what she had been through, after causing it in the first place!Even if she could not avenge Sophie soon enough, she was not about to take last night's grief lying down."Don't you dare! Henry will definitely get you for this!" Linda kept threatening Tina with Henry nonetheless. "Really?"Tina laughed coolly—she would actually like to see what he would do. "Throw her inside!"At Tina's cold demand, the bodyguards flung Linda into the room without regard for chivalry."Oof!"Linda grimaced in pain as she slammed heavily into the floor, turning and glaring at Tina, surprised that Tina would come good on her threat.But that was all there was to it! What else could Tina do to her?Soon calming down and glaring at Tina in contempt, she c
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 82
Linda was so scared that she could die!Gulping, she softened her quivering voice as she tried to reason with Tina.After all, Tina was the biggest softie there was.As long as she could coax Tina into releasing her, she would make Tina pay later!However, Tina was not bothered to entertain her.Tina dropped to a crouch and put on the pair of gloves handed to her by the bodyguards before she took out one of the snakes as Linda looked on in fear.Tina was calm and collected, while Linda was utterly terrified, her eyes wide and her pupils shrinking.Even as she stayed on the ground, she shook her head repeatedly as she murmured, "No, no… Stay away from me!"But even as she screamed, Tina threw the snake at her.After all, Linda must have been the one to throw the rat through the window last night to scare her.Linda and Irene were the best of friends, and Irene would definitely have bragged about it to Linda.The coldness in Tina's eyes grew as she remembered everything she ha
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 83
Linda was not getting off easy!"Henry…"Even as Linda called out miserably, the door shut with a clang.At the same time, Tina smirked coolly despite Henry's furious glare, fearless as she asked in return, "Why wouldn't I dare?"Seeing that a conflict was brewing between Henry and Tina, Andy strode up, reasoning quietly, "Ms. Smith, Mr. Barnes made sure you weren't implicated, so don't—""So you're saying that I should thank him?" Tina asked sharply, remembering everything that had happened last night as she did. Andy was clearly telling her that Henry was protecting her by locking her up last night.However, she was completely innocent—why would she need his help?If only Henry had been a little fair between her and Linda, or even trusted her one tiny bit instead of jumping to conclusions that she was to blame, telling the cops would not even be a matter of discussion, just as he would not have tried to coerce her into reflection and apologizing with the one thing she feared
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 84
Madam Barnes had clearly rushed to the scene.Tina had asked her to call Henry earlier, so that he left Linda's side, and she could make the grab.Madam Barnes was ready to get even for Tina's sake, and she was delighted when she insisted on doing it herself.After all, Tina loved Henry too much before and tolerated his every whim!However, Madam Barnes quickly realized that something had gone wrong when Henry had never shown up at Barnes Ranch.She promptly told Sam to look for him and discovered that he had really come here instead.And now, Madam Barnes herself strode toward Tina, shielding her protectively."Grandma."Henry lowered his foot and turned toward Madam Barnes.Though he was still glowering in rage, his tone calmed considerably. "You can't tolerate her hurting Linda endlessly just because you like her more—""Do you think I'm you?!"Madam Barnes cut him short bluntly. "I love Tina, but I'm not senile! I've already asked Sam to investigate what happened—yes, th

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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 429
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

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

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

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

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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 424
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 423
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
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 422
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
