Chapter 74
Chapter 74 As it turned out, everything she had done for the past two months was to take advantage of him. Despite knowing that Tina wasn’t a gold digger, Samuel still found her unforgivable. He hated people who took advantage of him the most. And Tina, she had the guts to use him as a means of her personal revenge. Even if the reason she missed the banquet was because of Pearl pushing her into the pool, a manipulative woman like her will never be part of the Langford family. He would never allow her to get close to his grandmother. After the incident regarding his grandmother settled down, Samuel went back to completing his piled-up work. The next day, in front of the office. A delicate shadow flashed in his direction and blocked his way. “Samuel, we need to talk…” Before Tina could hear Samuel’s response, the bodyguards were already dragging her away. She started to feel anxious. She knew full well that if she were to leave now, it wouldn’t be easy to approach him anymore.
“Samuel, please! I know you hate me because you think I lied to you, but there was nothing else that I could do.”
“And we have a contract, remember? You’re a man of your words, so you wouldn’t breach the contract, right?”
Samuel stopped as soon as he heard about the contract. “Really? The contract?” he hissed.
“Yes,” Tina said. “Samuel, our contract won’t be over for another month. Could you at least let me stay by Grandma’s side and take care of her? I promise to leave once the contract ends.” Samuel glared at Tina, his face a sharp expression. The silence was dreadful. Tina didn’t give up and went on, “I swear, I’ll disappear from your life right after I finish taking care of Grandma. I can even return all the money I’ve received from you. I mean it. You have to trust me, Samuel!”
Samuel’s expression remained the same, not a hint of change in his aloof look. It took him a while to respond.
“The contract? It’s void.”
These four words were enough to shock Tina to her core. Still, she persisted. “But… But you’ve always kept your word. The contract can’t be void…”
“Yes, I’ve always kept to my words. However, this is an exception. I will end this contract right here and right now.”
Samuel’s tone was grim, and then he pulled out his checkbook.
He wrote and signed the check before shoving it into Tina’s hands.
“Aren’t you a sucker for money? Here, take this and never come back. You and your pathetic acts disgust me!” Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Samuel looked at Tina, utterly repulsed.
Tina’s heart was torn into pieces as she stared at the check.
He would never believe her, anyway. None of her explanations mattered in the first place!
Tina could feel her hands trembling as she clenched the check tightly. Her teeth chattering, she hollered, “Fine, I’ll leave!”
Samuel let out a laugh under his breath. So she really was a sucker for money…
But the next second, Tina tore that check worth of billions into pieces.
“I admit, I approached you with bad intentions. I wanted to take my revenge, but Grandma treated me so sincerely. My wish to take care of her was genuine. If you don’t buy it, then there’s nothing that I can do. And as for your pathetic money, keep it for yourself!” She flung the torn check back to Samuel and stormed away angrily.
