Chapter 67


    Tina ended the call immediately after, and then blocked all the Lynds‘ phone numbers.


    This was payback for her near–death experience in Mr Wace‘s hands. She had waited for so long and


    made so many preparations for this day toe. Finally, her wish was granted.


    If it wasn‘t for the fact that she was still lying on the hospital bed, Tina would‘ve rushed out to buy


    fireworks and set them off to celebrate the asion.


    “Yes!” Tina cheered excitedly while clenching her fists.


    Samuel must be incredibly furious right now. Not only did he capture the Lynd family, but he was also


    trying to cause her trouble. Tina was no fool. Why would she appear at all? The contract signed between


    them would be nullified as well.


    Now, all she had to do was hide until Samuel‘s fury had subsided. Then, she would be a free woman


    once more.


    The more she thought about it, the more excited Tina became. At least, until she heard the voices


    coming from outside the ward.


    “Mr. Carter.” Tina froze. That voice belonged to none other than Samuel‘s personal assistant, Sandy. She


    covered her mouth immediately, having almost forgotten that John had coborative projects with


    Samuel the entire time.


    Had Samuel discovered her hiding in this ward, and so sent someone to capture her?


    Anxiety gripped her heart, causing it to beat wildly. Tina opened the ward‘s door by a small creak and


    peeked out for a look. “Why are you in the hospital as well, Mr. Carter? Are you also feeling unwell?”


    Sandy asked in concern.


    “My health has always been poor,” John replied with a small smile.


    Sandy didn‘t suspect that reason at all. He continued , “Regarding the coborative projects with Mr.


    Langford, I‘m afraid the schedules might be dyed for an unforeseeable period of time. Mr. Langford


    has family matters to deal with at the moment.”


    “Family matters?” John lifted a curious eyebrow. “I thought Samuel has always been particr about


    separating his private life from his work life. Why is he dealing with family matters all of a sudden?” “I


    think you‘ve heard of what happened at the banquet, Mr. Carter,” Sandy hinted. “I left quite early. What


    happened at the banquet, by the way?” John asked with a frown. Sandy exined, “Madam Langford


    had copsed there. She‘s still in the emergency room for now, so...”


    “Ah, I see,” john responded with a nod. He knew perfectly well that Madam Langford was the only that


    Samuel truly cared about. With how the medical staff were doing their utmost best to save her life in the


    emergency room, it was no wonder he couldn‘t leave the vicinity for now.


    While the men chatted among themselves, Tina‘s heart sank to the bottom of her stomach pit. She felt as


    if she had fallen into an abyss.


    Tina couldn’t believe what she had just overheard. To think that Madam Langford‘s life was in danger,


    and she was in the emergency room because of it...


    Messy thoughts crammed her mind. She had no idea what was going on. Before Tina left Madam


    Langford’s ward the night before, the elderly woman was still doing fine. She even said something about


    giving Tina a surprise. Tina’s thoughts came to aplete halt after that. She remained rooted on the


    spot,pletely stunned.


    Madam Langford had copsed at the banquet, whereas she had failed to show up there.

    Was that the reason Samuel was so furious and had sent his men to look for her?


    With that guess in mind, Tina would not sit still and do nothing.


    She stood up immediately and flung the door open with surprising strength. “Sandy, tell me the truth!”


    she said loudly. “What happened to Grandma?!” Sandy was still chatting with John when Tina suddenly


    spoke up. It scared the wits out of him. He stared at the woman before him, disbelief evident on his face.


    “Miss Lynd, you were here all along?!” “Yes, it‘s me. I thought you guys were looking for me! I‘m here


    now!” Tina replied anxiously.” loverheard you saying that Grandma‘s in danger! What exactly happened?”


    When Madam Langford was mentioned, the sight of Tina‘s concerned and anxious visage only disgusted


    Sandy even more. If it wasn‘t for her, the elderly woman wouldn‘t have to be sent to the emergency room


    in a critical condition.
