Chapter 4

Samuel’s body stiffened completely, obviously having not expected such a reaction from Tina.

 

Even as she jammed her lips against his, she kept her arms tightly around his waist, bawling, “Oh, Mr. Langford! I love you so much… Please don’t be so heartless, please spare my family…”

 

Nonetheless, Samuel came to his senses before she could finish, and firmly shook her off. “Get off! Get off me!”

 

Like a provoked lion, he was staring daggers as if his eyes could slice through her.

 

“No! No!” Tina kept going regardless, shaking her head even as she grabbed her leg this time. “Please, Mr. Langford, I won’t ask you to marry me—before I came here, my parents told me that I should agree to become your mistress if I have to…”

 

Tina was basically glued to Samuel, and in his rage, he whipped out the gun he had holstered on his hip!

 

“No, Mr. Langford!” Tina cried, but she kept holding on to Samuel anyway as she closed her eyes.

 

She was dying for real this time—the ten years worth of grief and grace faced after she was adopted by the Lynds would finally end here!

 

And yet…

 

One minute passed, then two.

 

What was going on?

 

Tina kept waiting, but the gunshot never came…

 

She wasn’t the only one surprised—Samuel himself did not imagine that the woman had once again made him lose control!

 

How long had it only been, and he was clearly lucid! How was this happening?!

 

Then, when he saw Tina again, he firmly shook her off and pulled away.

 

“Someone get in here and take her away! Keep her locked up somewhere—anywhere!”

 

The bodyguards outside promptly entered and did as they were told, though Tina wasn’t keen on the idea. “M-Mr. Langford, please, listen to me…”

 

Resisting his flaring rage, Samuel coolly added, “Gag her! You shouldn’t talk if you don’t know your manners anyway!”
