Chapter 188
After Cindy threatened Tina out of the manor that very same night, she bribed one of the maids to change Madam Langford’s prescription to induce a sudden relapse. That way, she could blame everything that happened to Tina. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Now, it was evident that her goals had been met.
Cindy tried to add fuel to fire and pretended to ask worriedly, “Samuel… Normally, Miss Lynd won’t leave the manor late at night. Why did Grandma’s condition get worse the moment she left? Something must’ve happened today. Sandy, run an investigation and figure out what Miss Lynd was up to just now.” Sandy looked at Samuel. Since Samuel didn’t voice anything, his silence meant consent. After a few minutes, Sandy, who looked shocked, presented his findings to Samuel.
It was a video.
Tina was at a nightclub, barely wearing anything. Around her was a group of men glowering at her with lustful eyes. What happened next was Frederick dragging her to leave, followed by Fiona’s appearance and her fight with Tina.
Cindy had gone through heavy edits to the video. She wanted Samuel to see for himself just how inappropriate Tina’s behavior was.
In Samuel’s eyes, Tina had taken advantage of his business trip to seduce men in the nightclub and meet up with Frederick. Somehow, the news got into Madam Langford’s ears, which triggered a relapse. With his eyes reflecting coldness, he grew so furious that he laughed out loud. “I see now!
Tina’s shown her true colors. She just never learns, does she?”
“If anything happens to Grandma, I’ll make sure she suffers a painful death!”
“I knew something was very wrong with that woman! She deserves to die!” Mrs. Langford scoffed. Then, she added, “Samuel, we’re all aware of your grandmother’s condition. The doctors aren’t even sure when she’ll wake up. Why don’t you give her a surprise when she wakes up?”
“A surprise?” Cindy asked. Mrs. Langford continued, “You should get pregnant with Samuel’s child as soon as possible! That way, I’m sure Madam Langford will get better! Samuel, your grandma has always yearned for a great-grandchild. Why don’t you fulfill her wish now?” With a flushed complexion, Cindy looked shyly at Samuel. “Samuel, should we…”
“We’ll discuss this matter later, Samuel replied with a cold tone. Then, he turned to the ward without another word. Samuel’s mother was anxious.
“Why is he giving you that attitude? Didn’t you tell me both of you have slept together? If he has agreed to marry you, why is he behaving like that?” Cindy was flustered as well,
To Samuel, that night was nothing but a mistake, To compensate for her losses, he had agreed to crown her as his official wife. However, he made a point to never sleep with her again,
However, Cindy couldn’t tell Mrs. Langford the truth. Instead, she tried her best to explain, “I think Samuel’s not in the mood to do that right now. After all, he’s very worried about his grandmother.”
Mrs. Langford pressed on further, “No matter what, you should get pregnant as soon as possible. Only then will your position in this household be secured! How can you compete against that sl*t otherwise?”
“I can help you now, since Tina’s the only one in the way. But what if other women showed up to seduce Samuel in the future? I’ll be honest with you. There’s only so much I can do if that happens. You need to have a child to bind your relationship with Samuel!”
Cindy was worried as well. Of course she knew that! Samuel, being a man who valued blood relations, wouldn’t abandon her if they had children together. But she couldn’t just conjure out a child out of nowhere, right? Right at this moment, a sinister thought flashed across her mind. She stopped panicking. A wicked smile graced her lips.
“Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll get pregnant in no time, “ Cindy exclaimed determinedly. Satisfied with her reply, Mrs. Langford said, “That’s more like it!” In the hospital, everyone surrounded Madam Langford’s ward. When it was finally daybreak, Madam Langford’s condition turned for the better. Only then did everyone go back home. Even Samuel went to the resting lounge to catch up on some sleep. Right at this moment, Cindy snuck up to the guard and asked, “May I know where Tina is currently being held?”
