Chapter 72
Chapter 72 Madam Langford was furious with Samuel’s behavior. Immediately, she yelled, “You! How dare you bully Tina in front of me!” She had just gained her consciousness, and having to go through an intense range of emotions activated the alarm from the machines. “Calm down, Grandma!” Tina said anxiously. The medical team quickly did a checkup on Madam Langford. And all this time, Madam Langford didn’t let go of Tina’s hand. Seeing how protective she was towards Tina, everything others wanted to say died on their lips. Samuel endured his emotions as he shot them a furious glare. ‘Disgusting woman! How dare she put up an act in front of Grandma after everything that’s happened.
Madam Langford’s condition started to stabilize after a while. Still holding Tina’s hand, she said to Samuel sternly, “I don’t have much time left, and I don’t wish to leave with regrets. Promise me that you’ll take care of Tina no matter what. She’s the only Lady Langford that I approve of! Do I make myself clear?”. Samuel answered gravely, “Grandma…”
“Don’t go against my wishes!” Madam Langford was stubborn and assertive despite lying weakly on the bed. “Swear that you won’t hurt Tina! Otherwise, I won’t be able to gain peace in my afterlife!
“Fine. You have my word, I won’t hurt her,” Samuel replied, left with no choice. A smile appeared on Madam Langford’s face after she heard Samuel’s words. “Very well. I know you’re a man of your word. You should spend your life happily with Tina…” She closed her eyes, and her voice sank into silence right as she finished her words. “Grandma!” Tina shouted in panic. “What is happening? Doctor, please help!” There was a dreadful pause, and then everything fell into chaos. Fortunately, Madam Langford’s condition was stable. As it turned out, she merely passed out due to the fatigue from the emergency surgery. “Judging from her condition, she’ll need at least another half a month to recover,” the doctor
said.
Tina looked at Samuel and said, “Samuel, let me stay behind and take care of Grandma for the time being. I’ll do my best”.
Samuel stared incredulously at Tina, his eyes sharpened into a hateful glare.
“And you think I would say yes to that?” he spat sarcastically. That stunned Tina. “But… But you just promised Grandma.
“I only said that so she won’t be worried.”
The coldness in his voice was so dreadful, Tina felt chills all over her body.
“I’ll never let a manipulative person like you stay by Grandma’s side. Someone, get her out of here!” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Tina grabbed Samuel’s arm as if he was her last hope just as the bodyguards approached her.
“Samuel, please. I really want to take care of Grandma. I…”
Before she could even finish her sentence, she felt her visions getting blurry. She wobbled before falling into Samuel’s arms.
Samuel looked down at the woman in his arms, a sinister smirk gracing his lips.
‘She still insisted on seducing me even at this mament?’
Samuel pushed Tina’s thin body away harshly, not an ounce of pity in him. He was repulsed. Just as Tina was about to fall to the ground, a figure dashed into the room and held her protectively. “You?!” Samuel frowned.
