Chapter 106
Chapter 106 Tina held back the tears that threatened to spill from her eyes. As Mrs. Langford was about to give her another slap, she shouted defiantly, “I have to visit Grandma Langford every day. How am I supposed to explain to her my swollen face?!! Mrs. Langford’s hand stopped mid-air. She snarled angrily, “You’ dare to threaten me?” “I’m not! You can do whatever you want to me, Mrs. Langford. I just’ don’t want Grandma Langford to worry,” Tina answered truthfully. ‘What this wench said makes sense. That old båt would freak out if she found out that I’ve been bullying her.
“Just you wait!” Mrs. Langford spat, her lips a crooked smile. “She’s not gonna last long. The doctor said she’ll be gone in another 6 months!”. Tina felt as if her world was crumbling around her. “What? 6 months?”
“Why else do you think Samuel was willing to marry you? He just wanted to fulfill Grandma Langford’s final wish.” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Tina felt her body trembling. ‘No wonder Grandma was rushing the marriage. That explains why Samuel was alright with it… It was all because of Madam Langford. Tina initially planned to repay Madam Langford’s kindness in the future, but never did she imagine that the old woman might be gone in just a few months’ time. Complicated emotions whirled in her, overwhelming her.
Mrs. Langford went on in a harsh tone, “Your only worth here is a maid. Don’t you dare try to ruin Samuel and Cindy’s relationship!” Having said that, Mrs. Langford turned around and left the room in a huff.
Meanwhile…
After a long time, it finally dawned on Samuel that Tina was missing. He turned to Sandy and barked, “Where is she?”
Sandy replied, “Mrs. Langford said that Tina can stay at her place for a while so that she wouldn’t disturb you and Ms. Young.” Samuel remained silent throughout the entire time.
Mother never liked Tina, so she definitely wouldn’t treat Tina kindly.’
‘She had it coming for desperately wanting to marry me.’ As Sandy left the room, Cindy appeared and gave Samuel an affectionate hug from behind. Her cheeks blushed sweetly as she said coyly, “Samuel, it’s getting late. We should rest…”
Before she could finish, Samuel pushed her away. “I’ll be working late. Don’t wait up.”
Cindy didn’t expect such a cold reaction from him. She thought he was only joking when he declared that he wouldn’t touch her, but he actually meant it! This couldn’t be happening! She must be pregnant with his child and marry him! “But Samuel, I’m already yours! I wish to have a child with you…” Cindy’s words brought Samuel back to that one time when Tina was mistaken for being pregnant. He was disappointed when he found out that Tina wasn’t pregnant, but strangely enough, he had a different reaction when Cindy was concerned. “I don’t like children. Let’s talk about this some other time.” Despite her dissatisfaction, Cindy said nothing in response. She left the room and quickly made a phone call. She thought everything would change after tricking Samuel into thinking that they had a one night stand, but alas! Tina always ended up in between them, some way or other.
She couldn’t stand the thought that Tina was still alive and living in the same place as her. “Make it quick!” she snapped. “I want her to be gone as soon as possible!”
