Chapter 65
Madam Langford was so furious, her chest ached and her breathing halted temporarily. Her sudden collapse plunged the entire lobby into pure chaos.
The ambulance arrived at the hotel soon enough. A group of paramedics quickly carted Madam Langford into the vehicle before rushing her toward the hospital.
Cindy sat next to Samuel outside the emergency room, pretending to look weak and helpless. “Samuel, will Grandma Langford be alright?” she asked worriedly. The sight of Samuel‘s tense expression encouraged her to go on. She pretended to be curious as she asked, “What‘s going on, Samuel? Is the reason Grandma Langford showed up at the banquet to announce Miss Lynd as the future Mrs. Langford? Why did she go missing, then? Is there some sort of misunderstanding going on...?“. “There aren‘t any misunderstandings,” Samuel answered coldly. Either he was being too kind to Tina, or she was an incredible actress. He had completely forgotten that her true nature consisted of pure greed and deceptive calculations. Samuel initially thought that Tina‘s presence could make his grandmother happy. Yet, a tragedy had almost occurred because of that decision.
“If anything were to happen to Grandma, I‘ll make sure I send that woman to hell as well,” he gritted out furiously. Each word was coated with a thick layer of murderous intent.
Cindy‘s tone remained gentle and soft as ever. “Samuel, don‘t worry. Good people will always be blessed with fortune. I believe Grandma Langford will be alright. Besides, you still have me, don‘t you? I‘ll be here for you no matter what,” she said sweetly. “You‘re the only one who won‘t lie to me,” Samuel said with an emotional sigh. His gaze landed on Cindy‘s necklace before he continued, “It‘s a good thing I found you back then.” Cindy‘s heart skipped a beat at that moment. She clutched her necklace, guilt suddenly gnawing at her conscience. She didn‘t dare to meet Samuel‘s eyes because of that. To be honest, she had obtained that necklace by chance a long time ago.
In the past, Cindy was the Young family‘s b*stard child. As a result of her status, she was never loved and cared for.
At least, wntil that fateful day, when she found out that Samuel was looking for the little girl who had saved his life.
He didn‘t remember what she looked like, but he remembered the accessory that she was wearing. It was a necklace that Cindy had found by pure coincidence. That was the reason why she decided to take the risk. She took the necklace with her and pretended to be the little girl who had saved Samuel. Since then, her life went through a drastic change. Everyone referred to her as the esteemed Miss Young from the Young family. Plus, Madam Langford had once viewed her as the future Mrs. Langford.
Cindy was the only one who knew the truth. No one, not even Sarnuel, suspected her the slightest
As long as she kept a tight lid on the secret, Samuel would always adore and care for her the most. No one else could surpass her position in his heart. If that secret got leaked, Cindy would definitely suffer a fate worse than death in Samuel‘s hands. He hated liars the most, after all.
“What‘s wrong?” Samuel apparently sensed Cindy‘s discomfort. The latter‘s complexion was slightly pale. She replied softly, “I‘m fine, Samuel. I was just feeling a little dizzy.” Samuel was aware of Cindy‘s poor health, so he issued an order to Sandy right away. “Sandy, take her to a lounge and have her rest there.” “B–But I want to stay with you until Grandma Langford wakes up...” Cindy tried to protest weakly.
“Don‘t make me repeat myself.” Samuel‘s tone was cold and commanding. Naturally, Cindy didn‘t dare to protest any longer. She had no choice but to follow Sandy obediently. A calculative glint appeared in her eyes. She couldn‘t afford to wait a second longer. She must become the future Mrs. Langford as soon as possible. She needed to become the only woman that Samuel loved, and no one else. After Sandy
returned from his trip, he noticed Samuel rubbing his forehead tiredly. “Mr. Langford, you‘ve spent days organizing the banquet,” he advised. “You should go and rest as
well.” This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Where‘s Tina?” Samuel asked immediately, paying no heed to Sandy‘s advice. “I have yet to locate her for now,” Sandy replied. “Hmph! She must have fled by now, hasn‘t she?” Samuel growled, before laughing coldly.“ Detain the entire Lynd family and interrogate them. Use any means necessary to extract information out of them. I refuse to believe that she won’t show up after this!”
He paused for a while before continuing, “Also, tell John that I‘ll be busy for the time being, so I won‘t have time to meet up with him.” Madam Langford‘s safety was his utmost priority at the moment. As for everything else, they could burn for all Samuel cared.
