Chapter 99 Before Tina could say anything, Madam Langford cut her off instantly.
“No! That’s not an option!” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Tina was dumbfounded. “I haven’t even said anything!” Madam Langford continued with an unpleasant tone, “No need. It’s written all over your
face!”
“It can’t be that obvious, right?” Tina touched her cheeks, a little embarrassed.
Her gesture angered and amused Madam Langford at the same time. “You silly child!”
With shaking hands, she mustered all her strength to caress Tina’s head.
“Tina, you’re too kind and innocent. You should marry Samuel before anything happens to me. Stop making me worry about you!” “I know that I won’t live for long. Before I die, I want to see you two as a happily married couple. The first reason is to have Samuel take responsibility for you, and the other reason is to realize the wish I’ve had all these years. What’s more, you’re a perfect match for my grandson. I want to see you two building a family together.” When Tina discovered that Madam Langford was looking out for her future, her eyes turned red.
Yet, she knew full well that Samuel would never love her. The only woman Samuel wanted was Cindy.
“But we don’t have feelings for each other.”
“Be that as may, at the end of the day, Samuel will still need to take responsibility for you. Besides, feelings can be fostered. It takes time. What’s important is that you have to become Samuel’s wife. That way, I can pass on easily, knowing that you are protected and respected by the people around you.”
Madam Langford was determined. She wouldn’t let Tina refuse her order.
Considering the old woman’s health condition, Tina didn’t want to say anything that would upset Madam Langford. She could only lower her head and say quietly, “Okay, Grandma. I understand.”
She chatted with Madam Langford for a while before leaving. When she left, it was already late at night.
Looking at Tina’s back, Madam Langford heaved a dejected sigh. Then, she stretched out her shaky hands and yanked at the wires connecting to the machines around her.
All of a sudden, alarms blared from the ward and alerted her medical team.
When they arrived in her ward, Madam Langford gave them a stern order.
“I don’t care what Samuel’s doing right now. Drag him here right now!”
The moment Tina left the ward, she was about to send a message to John so he wouldn’t be worried about her.
Typing and walking at the same time, she accidentally bumped into a person in front of her. “Ouch!” Mr. Jackson turned and said irritatedly, “How dare you knock into me? Do you know who I am, you prick?” Tina was shocked and quickly apologized. “I’m sorry.” The two looked at each other, momentarily stunned. Tina cursed under her breath. Who would’ve known that the person she bumped into today would be Mr. Jackson? Instinctively, Tine turned to leave. However, he blocked her again. “Young lady, we meet again! You stomped on my feet the last time, remember? I don’t think we’ve resolved that grudge yet. How are you going to make it up to me?” Tina was beyond annoyed. ‘Why is he making things so difficult for me?’. “I’ve already apologized. What more do you still want me to do?” “An apology is not enough!” Looking at Tina’s flustered expression, Jackson was even more amused. “Why don’t you become mine?”
Tina didn’t want to continue this conversation with him. Without any form of hesitance, she raised her foot and attempted to stomp on his feet again.
Mr. Jackson already saw it coming. This woman in front of him wasn’t like the innocent and shy ladies of prestigious standing, nor was she similar to the sexy succubuses in the nightclub.
To be more accurate, she seemed more like a proud fox who would clamp its claws on you when you least expected it. He dodged her attack and said proudly, “I already knew you’d do that! Haha!” Tina was speechless. “Go away!” “Unless you agree to be my girlfriend, I won’t leave.” “I’ll never agree to that! Just how shameless are you?” Tina glared at him, seething.
