Chapter 71

"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

Chapter 73

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

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

Chapter 75

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

Chapter 76

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

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

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

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
