Chapter 69
However, Samuel had lost all of his patience for Tina He turned to his men and commanded, Drag her out of here. Don’t ever let her appear in front of me!” “Yes, Mr. Langford.” The bodyguards appeared instantly and dragged her away ruthlessly despite her struggles
Despair filled ‘Tina‘s eyes at that moment, she looked incredibly thin and feeble in the hospital
gown,
Unfortunately for her, Samuel didn‘t feel even an ounce of pily for her. He had finally seen her true colors, so she was undeserving of anyone‘s trust,
Just like that, ‘Tina found herself tossed out of the hospital. A lot of people happened to be bustling in and out of the hospital at that time. They all gazed at her curiously, wondering, what on earth happened.
Tina knew that she looked very ragged right now, but she could care less about the public‘s opinion of her. She turned to beg the bodyguards immediately.
“Please let me in! I promise I won‘t do anything to hurt Grandma! I‘ll be satisfied as long as I can take care of her! At least let me take a look at her!”
Despite her pitiful pleas, the bodyguards remained unmoved. After completing their task, they left the lobby immediately without sparing her a single glance.
Poor Tina could only curl into a ball and cry tears of anguish while huddling in a corner, looking just like a cat that got abandoned by its owner. She appeared incredibly pitiful and weak
A short while later, John could be seen hurrying toward Tina after receiving the news. He placed a jacket on top of her quivering form before letting out a heavy sigh.
“Please don‘t cry, Tina. You haven‘t fully recovered yet. Why don‘t you go back with me?”
The moment Tina saw John, she looked like she had seen her knight in shining armor. “John, can you help me? I didn‘t know that Grandma would be in danger because of me. Can you please ask Samuel for permission to visit her on my behalf?” she asked pitifully. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“Tina…” John felt quite helpless. When Samuel made up his mind, nothing could change his decision. “He‘ll take care of Madam Langford. Don‘t worry about her,” John finally said.
“I‘m still worried! How can I not worry about Grandma?” The look on Tina‘s face was extremely pitiful. “I want to at least take a look at her...”
John could only sigh. “Oh, Tina...”
The sight of his defeated expression made Tina realize how outrageous she was being. She quickly wiped her tears away. “I‘m sorry for being useless, and for making you worry about me. Let‘s go,” she finally relented.
She knew John was stuck between a rock and a hard place. After all, he and Samuel were
partners. How could he afford to offend the latter at a time like this, just for her sake?
She refused to be selfish.
Tina stood up slowly and was about to leave the hospital exit. John‘s heart skipped a beat when he saw her prideful and stubborn back facing him. He couldn‘t help but say, “Alright. You said you’ll just take a look at her, right? That‘s the most I can do for you.”
“Really?” Tina turned around to stare at John, hope sparkling in her eyes.
John didn‘t want her to keep being sad. And so, he said, “Yes. Follow me.”
At that time, Samuel had returned to the elevator.
Cindy stood next to him. She happened to witness the scene earlier, which satisfied her greatly. Now that the troublesome woman was dealt with, Samuel finally belonged to her and her alone.
After Madam Langford was wheeled into her ward, her doctor–in–charge came out and said, “ Mr. Langford. Madam Langford‘s condition is no longer critical, but she still needs some time before she can wake up. We‘ll put her under full–time surveillance. Don’t worry, Mr. Langford. We‘ll have someone watch over her all the time. You look quite sickly, so perhaps you should go get some rest.”
“No need. I‘m still worried about her,” Samuel said coldly.
However, it was true that he was in a terrible condition. Not only did he slave over the banquet for a week, but he also didn‘t sleep for the past twenty–four hours.
