Chapter 85
Samuel frowned.
He didn’t expect Tina to react in such a way. She didn’t bawl her eyes out or begged for forgiveness. Instead, she accepted her fate with open arms. Her eyes did reflect desperateness and agony, but she didn’t seem to have given up at all. They burned with such powerful fire, that even Samuel could feel it just by looking at her.
At this, he hesitated.
Right at this moment, Samuel’s phone rang.
“Mr. Langford, your grandmother has woken up!”)
The doctor at the other end of the phone sounded excited.
Tina was still awaiting her death when she heard the news. Shocked, she couldn’t believe her ears. “Where’s Tina? I want to see Tina right now!” Madam Langford’s voice was frail despite her determination, “Samuel, you insolent man! Don’t tell me you’ve done something bad to Tina while I was in a coma! If anything happens to Tina, I’ll…!” When Tina heard her voice, she couldn’t contain her excitement. “Mr. Langford, is that Grandma?” Samuel’s frown deepened. Seeing that her eyes were glimmering with hope, it didn’t seem like Tina was faking her emotions.. “I heard Tina’s voice just now. Let me talk to her!” Madam Langford ordered immediately.
Samuel glared at Tina as a warning,
“Alright, Grandma, I’ll pass the phone to her.” He loosened the ropes around her arms and legs. Tina cupped the phone carefully as she shivered in excitement.
“Grandma, it’s me.”
“Did Samuel bully you again?” Madam Langford asked.
Tina looked at herself. She was dressed haggardly and had bruises all over her body, courtesy of Samuel. Despite that, she resolutely lied, “He didn’t. I’m okay, Grandma.” “That’s good!” After Madam Langford made sure that Tina was safe and sound, she heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m tired, so I’m heading to sleep now. Come and visit me when you’re free, okay?”
After she hung up, Tina felt reluctant to let go of the phone. Just now, she was shrieking like a mad woman, but now, she was calm and collected. “Mr. Langford, I think I should visit Grandma…” Tina began carefully.
Samuel glared at her coldly, his lips a snarl. “You can, but remember to choose your words wisely when you see her.”
While walking towards the door, he felt irritated. He had to admit that a small part of him felt bad for treating Tina poorly. It was obvious that she couldn’t be trusted, given that she had deceived him time and again. So why did he fall for her every single time despite her lies? If his grandmother didn’t instruct to spare Tina, would he have let her go? Tina, on the other hand, could care less about what Samuel was thinking. Her life was owed to Madam Langford again, for which she was extremely grateful. If it wasn’t for Grandma’s protection, she would have died today! Soon, Samuel brought Tina to the hospital. Madam Langford held Tina’s hand. After talking for a short while, she grew sluggish and fell into a deep slumber.
Tina then left the ward. She and Samuel were the only ones outside.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Anxious about the impending doom, Tina asked, “Um, Mr. Langford…” “You’re lucky today,” Samuel cut her off icily, not bothered to listen to anything she had to say. “If it wasn’t for Grandma’s sudden recovery, you would’ve been dead by now.”
Tina lowered her head, “I know.”
“You can go now. I have a team of experts tending to grandma’s needs. You come here only when grandma wants to see you. I don’t want to see you loitering around here!”
Tina could feel a weight being lifted off her shoulders when she heard that. ‘He’s a lunatic, so I’ll definitely get as far away from him as possible!’ While preoccupied with her thoughts, she sprinted ahead. The moment she entered the lift, she accidentally knocked into somebody.
