Chapter 244
There were two reasons why Samuel personally sent Kara to the police station. Firstly, this young girl seemed oddly familiar to him. Secondly, he wanted to see who her mother really was.
How dare her child accuse him of being a bully! Samuel looked over in Tina’s direction immediately the moment the police officer informed him of her arrival.
When he saw the person standing outside the door, his frown turned into a grimace.
“Is she the one?”
The woman had a haggard appearance. With her face covered with dirt, it almost seemed like she had tripped and landed squarely on her face.
If she remembered correctly, this woman’s name was Linda, the fashion designer.
Tina stood rooted to the ground. She still hadn’t come back to her senses. Samuel sneered, “You’re her mother?”
“I…I…”
Tina broke out in cold sweat instantly. She didn’t expect the kind pedestrian to turn out to be Samuel Langford. How could this be? He was always a cruel-hearted man who didn’t care for anything. Why did he accompany Kara to the police station?
He shot her a cold gaze and said with a disgusted tone, “As a fashion designer, your fashion sense is questionable. On top of that, you’re extremely irresponsible as a mother.”
Tina lowered her head and stuttered, “I’m…I’m sorry…”
Facing Samuel’s condescending gaze, Tina grew embarrassed. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Right at this moment, Kara woke up and interjected angrily, “You monster! Don’t you dare bully my mommy!”
Samuel frowned. “When did I ever do that? Your mother is the one who didn’t take care of you. Why am I called the bully here?” Kara was even more infuriated. She brandished her ferocious little fists and explained, “This has nothing to do with my mommy! I was the one who climbed over the walls and snuck out of the kindergarten when everyone was sleeping!”
“On top of that, my mommy is a very busy person. She works very hard to take care of me. If it isn’t because she needs to raise me, she would’ve been living a comfortable life!”
“Don’t you dare bully my mommy! Or else, I’ll kill you!” At this moment, Kara was like an angry, puffed-up kitten.
Even though she was as harmless as a hamster, she still had the guts to brandish her claws in front of Samuel
“Kara, stop spouting nonsense!” Tina was terrified. Worried that Kara’s words would provoke Samuel even further, she rushed forward and scooped the child in her arms.
“Mr. Langford, it’s all my fault! This has nothing to do with the child. I’ll… I’ll leave now!”
She turned to leave immediately, but was stopped by Samuel. “Stay right where you are.”
Tina didn’t dare to defy him and stood rooted to the ground. “Is the little girl telling the truth?” Samuel asked. Tina paused. “What?” “Are you the only one taking care of her?” Samuel asked with a frown.
Under his scrutinizing gaze, Tina didn’t dare lie. She replied in a soft tone, “It’s not just me. She has an uncle who always drops by to look after her when I’m busy with work.” “What about the child’s father? Where is he?” Samuel asked. Before Tina could say anything, Kara cut him off, “My father’s dead.” Samuel snorted. His expression as cold as usual, he added, “Figures. If he can’t take care of his family, he might as well be dead.”
Tina was speechless. She couldn’t help but wipe the sweat off her forehead. Struggling for words, she ended up replying with an awkward smile.
Coincidentally, the father, a useless man who couldn’t take care of his own family, was standing right in front of her.
