Chapter 41

Whitney sat and glared coldly at Tina.Tina's face had been an eyesore to her the first they met—she looked too much like that woman!On the other hand, Tina stood motionless, forced to stay silent despite being keen on maintaining her innocence.Among the members of the Barnes family, Whitney despised her the most—it was pointless to reason with her.Tina had expected Henry to at least give her a chance to defend herself too and did not think that he believed Linda and Rory's word at face value, denying her even that.She pursed her lips, fighting back the sense of helplessness inside.There really was nothing she could do against an opponent with so much support.That was when Irene snapped, "My mom told you to kneel!"Glee showed in her eyes, as she despised Tina too.Her mother had been telling her to win over her grandmother when she returned to this manor with her mother. And yet, her grandmother never liked her, instead favoring Tina and siding with her on every occas

Chapter 42

Tears silently welled up in Tina's eyes as she nodded. "When did you wake up? When did you come back? Are you alright now?""I'm plenty fine!" Madam Barnes clapped her hand assuringly.-Meanwhile, Rory fell asleep after she cried enough in Henry's room on the third floor while Linda stood by, wiping her tears miserably.That is, until a servant knocked on the door. "Sir? Madam Barnes is asking for you and Ms. Cook downstairs."Hearing that, Henry was on his feet right then, delight showing in his eyes. "Grandma is back?"As he put down Rory and started downstairs, Linda remained behind, struck by terrible panic.If anything, she felt like she had sunk into the abyss upon hearing that Madam Barnes had returned, as she kept wondering why that relic managed to make it back.Was she not already comatose?! And now that she was back, would the truth of what happened five years ago not be exposed?!-As Henry arrived at the drawing room downstairs and saw that it really was Madam B

Chapter 43

Taking the phone and watching the footage, Madam Barnes' gaze soon darkened.Then, she looked up and snapped, "Kneel!"Irene had been keeping her head down panicking ever since Tina claimed that she had proof, even ready to apologize.Nonetheless, her eyes lit up at Madam Barnes' sudden outburst, straightening herself confidently once more.She knew it—Tina never had proof, and she had almost believed it for a second!When Rory ran toward Tina, she was standing at the opposite side of the pond and saw everything!Irene was the only one there beside them too, so as long as she insisted it was Tina, Tina would never be able to maintain her innocence!Then, seeing that Tina was still standing there, she glowered and snapped, "Tina Smith! You heard Grandma—kneel!"She even grabbed Tina's arm to make her kneel, only for Madam Barnes to bellow at her, "I'm talking about you!""Me?!" Irene exclaimed in shock but promptly dropped to her knees with a thud when she saw Madam Barnes' f

Chapter 44

Madam Barnes was clearly taken aback for a moment, but she could not resist an admiring smile as she glanced at Tina.Her girlie was finally complaining instead of suffering injustice in silence!Well done!Still, her smile soon faded as she leveled a cutting glare at Linda.Linda feared Madam Barnes in the first place, and she was left gritting her teeth when Tina deliberately directed Madam Barnes' attention to herself.But there was nothing she could do about it, aside from quietly tugging on Henry's sleeve and calling out softly, "Henry…"She wanted him to bail her out.However, there was only silence.Then, as she sneakily glanced upward, her heart skipped a beat when she saw Henry's icy glare.As she looked down, her mind raced.When she looked up again, tears were welling up in her eyes as she choked with miserable tears. "I'm so sorry, Tina… I was just so worried about Rory that I didn't know what I was saying. I didn't mean it."There was no telling if she was expla

Chapter 45

Even if Madam Barnes did not tell Linda to leave, her words could well be a slap to Linda's face, utterly humiliating her.Indeed, all the pride Linda felt after Whitney and Irene fawned over her had vaporized.Even Henry was silent when he turned toward her, and she knew that Madam Barnes was the one family member that Henry cared for the most.And when she turned toward Whitney, the woman was scowling, not even looking at her.Clenching her hand so hard her nails dug into her palm, her smile faded even as she forced herself to stay polite. "I'll be leaving now, Madam Barnes.""I'll take you and Rory home." Henry stood up as well."Stop!" Madam Barnes snapped and suddenly started coughing violently.Henry's face dropped as he turned, hurrying to Madam Barnes with a look of worry. "Grandma!"Tina's face dropped too as she clapped Madam Barnes on the back while turning to Sam. "Get Dr. Sandler!"Even Whitney hurried to her as well. "Mom…"That was when Tina felt Madam Barnes t

Chapter 46

"Get out," Madam Barnes snapped coolly.In the end, Irene was still her granddaughter, so she did not continue to punish Irene.Moreover, she had other things to do.With that, Whitney promptly helped Irene to her feet, and they fled the room. Once the door shut from the outside, Madam Barnes suddenly wheeled on Henry and snapped, "Kneel!"Though Henry did so right away, she kept snapping, "You promised me that you'd take care of Tina! Is this how you go about it?!"Not only did he not do so, but he was conspiring with a bitch like Linda to bully Tina.Linda, Irene, and Whitney might be despicable, but Henry was way worse!"Fetch that spiked whip," Madam Barnes told Sam then."Madam Barnes…" Sam was hesitant but stopped with just a look.Glowering, Madam Barnes growled, "No one defends him."Tina knew that Madam Barnes was saying it for her benefit, in case she would start begging as she could not bear to see Henry hurt.However, there was no way that was the case.Still,

Chapter 47

Henry's large hand pulled her by the waist so that their bodies were pressing together intimately, and he bit her lip punishingly.His breath scalded as his fingers caressed her hip, rasping as he felt her shuddering in his arms, "You're teasing me on purpose, aren't you?"Tina pressed her hands feebly against his chest as his masculine hormones shrouded her, distancing herself while retorting stubbornly, "No."She struggled to get off her, pulling his hand off, only for him to pull her down again, this time making her straddle him.Tina could even feel her earlobes burning, whether it was his breath or something else…"No?" Henry leveled his dark gaze at her scarlet earlobes—she always was sensitive, and they were also bewitchingly red like a blossoming flower, luring one to pluck it.Gulping, Henry held the back of her head and kissed her, and she could not stop him tearing through her teeth, pressing in invasively.She wanted to get away, but he held her waist and nape, force

Chapter 48

Tina did not stop despite Henry's rage, even pressing, "I'm trying to say that if there had been cameras around that swimming pool, it begs the question if things would have turned out as they did today.""Tina!" Henry snapped, agitated as he pressed hard on her back, any warmth between them vaporizing right then."Guh!" Tina could not help grunting from the pain, and he withdrew his hand.Still, he stood up, looking downward at her as he growled coolly, "Even if you didn't push Rory today, it doesn't mean that Sophie didn't that other day."With that, he turned to leave.Tina slowly sat up as she buttoned her blouse, her eyes cool.She had thought that given the identical scenario, Henry would feel doubts even if he did not trust her.As it turned out, she had simply underestimated the place Rory and Linda had in Henry's heart.-At Whitney's house, Irene sat on the couch, having just taken her medicine but still tearing up from the pain.Looking at the knees that were red f

Chapter 49

Tina stiffened at the mention of Sophie.Seeing that she was silent, he growled in warning, "Quit your antics already."Tina's gaze darkened—he was telling her not to say that Sophie was dead whenever he mentioned her.However, she never planned to mention Sophie at all, as she was concerned for Madam Barnes.Madam Barnes had doted on Sophie before falling to a coma—could she really take the news of Sophie's death?It was a bet she refused to take.Still, before she could speak, an elderly voice asked from the stairs, "What was that? Bring who to dinner?"Tina panicked but mustered herself and fought back her misery, smiling as she walked up. "No, Grandma. I—"Before she could even change the subject, Henry stared straight at Tina as he said, "Sophie."He refused to let her win—not when she had hidden Sophie for so long.Tina glared at him where Madam Barnes could not see but soon turned to her. "Sophie is—""Who's Sophie?" Madam Barnes asked, cutting her short.She was fro

Chapter 50

Henry frowned—in other words, they must never mention Sophie around Madam Barnes.Still, his eyes darkened as he glanced sideways at Tina, who clearly sighed in relief.How long was she going to hide Sophie?!Madam Barnes just happened to step out just then and was immediately annoyed. "Glare at Tina again, and I'll take your eyes."She then smacked him on the back for good measure!"Guh!" Henry grunted."You deserved it!" Madam Barnes snorted, though concern showed in her eyes.She was really getting old, already forgetting that she had just flogged him…-Soon, Madam Barnes was happily having seconds at the dining table, as Tina had personally cooked her favorites.They went out for a stroll in the garden after, and there was a sudden downpour.Worried for Madam Barnes' health, Tina took off her jacket and covered Madam Barnes despite the latter's protests.Still, while not one drop of rain reached Madam Barnes when a servant arrived with an umbrella, Tina was soaked thro
