Chapter 279 Tina was so surprised that she instinctively ripped her wrist out of Samuel‘s grasp and retreated a few steps backward. “M–Mr. Langford, what‘s wrong? Did I do something wrong?” she asked in a frightened tone. The sight of Tina looking so terrified allowed Samuel to gradually calm down. He did see her real face and investigated her background... 

It was all that d*mned woman‘s fault! Not only did she betray his trust, but it was also thanks to her that he became an insomniac. Now, he was reduced to a paranoid shell of a man. Samuel rubbed his sore forehead in irritation before saying coldly, “It‘s nothing. I‘m not used to a stranger touching me, that‘s all. Keep going.” However, Tina hesitated to act. She continued asking fearfully, “Are you sure?” 

When Samuel noticed just how frightened she looked, he realized his sudden change in attitude had scared her. “Yes. I‘m fine,” he replied. “I was spacing out earlier and ended up thinking about a woman who should‘ve died a long time ago.” His response drilled even more fear into Tina’s heart. · A woman who should‘ve died a long time ago?

After measuring his neck, she went ahead and took his chest and hip measurements... 

Tina worked carefully and slowly, not daring to touch Samuel at all. It was as if he was a ticking time bomb in her eyes. Finally, she was done taking all the measurements. Tina let out a sigh of relief before saying, “All the measurements have been taken now, so I‘ll be taking my leave, Mr. Langford.” Before he could answer her, she hunched over and left the study immediately like she was running away from him. She felt as if she had just successfully escaped from a demon‘s lair. 

Luckily, I escaped just in time!

Tina locked the door behind her and leaned against it while patting her chest to soothe herself. “Did you commit a crime? Why do you look so scared?”. Suddenly, a child–like voice drifted from

He continued coldly, “This is my house, so your room is also a part of my territory.” “You...” Tina was so angry that she shook. Then again, she couldn‘t bring herself to argue with a five–year–old, especially when he was still very ill. “Go back to your room and rest there,” she said. “Aren‘t you handing over the designs to Samuel tomorrow?
