Chapter 70


    Chapter 70 “I’ll do it,” Cindy offered after sneaking a peek at Samuel’s expression. “Samuel, I promised


    that I’ll take good care of Grandma Langford. You should hurry up and get some rest. What if you


    copsed before she woke up, Samuel? What should we do by then?” Cindy’s soft voice, coupled with


    the throbbing headache that had been drumming against Samuel’s skull, made him agree to the


    suggestion.


    “I’ll rest in the lounge next door,” he relented. You have to inform me if anything happens.”


    “I will,” Cindy promised. She then walked Samuel into the lounge. Sandy said gratefully, “Thank


    goodness you’re here, Miss Young. Otherwise, we wouldn’t know what to do with Mr. Langford!” To him,


    Cindy was the perfect candidate to be the future Mrs. Langford. It was a good thing that Samuel


    had rid that Tina wench. “It was nothing,” Cindy replied softly. “By the way, regarding the matter


    concerning Miss Lynd… Is it really not a misunderstanding?” “Miss Young, you’re too kind-hearted for


    your own good. Once Mr. Langford has decided on something, he’ll never go back on his word. It’s fine if


    you talked about it in front of me, but please refrain from mentioning it in front of Mr. Langford in the


    future.”


    “Alright, I understand.” With that, the invisible weight in Cindy’s heart finally dissipated.


    That woman would never pose a threat to her ever again. Pleased, she turned around and left the lounge


    to keep watch over Madam Langford in her own ward.


    A short whileter, Cindy’s phone started ringing. “Hello, Mrs. Langford.” Indeed, the one who called her


    was Samuel’s mother, Mrs. Langford. “What happened? Why was Grandma sent to the emergency


    room?” she asked.


    Cindy quickly exined everything to Mrs. Langford. Mrs. Langford had always despised Tina. Now that


    she had known everything, she spat disdainfully, “I knew it! That woman’s a despicable b*tch. I already


    knew that she’ll bring trouble to the family. It’s a good thing Samuel dealt with her ordingly.” “Mrs.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Langford, you can’t say that! What if this really is a misunderstanding?” Cindy continued to uphold her


    kind-hearted facade. i


    On the other end of the line, Mrs. Langford harrumphed coldly before replying,” Misunderstanding? What


    misunderstanding? She deserves to die! Whatever, let’s not talk about that b*tch. How’s Samuel doing


    right now?”


    “He’s resting in the lounge next door at the moment. He’s extremely exhausted because of everything


    that happened. His condition worries me a lot…”


    Mrs. Langford started urging once again. “Samuel will stay by Grandma’s side over the next few days.


    You need to use this opportunity to work hard, alright?”


    Cindy replied bashfully, “Mrs. Langford, I don’t think this is a good time for me to do that. After all, I don’t


    want to distract Samuel….”


    “You need to strike while the iron’s still hot!” Mrs. Langford retorted in displeasure. “If you continue


    waiting for the perfect chance toe, someone else might swoop in and be the next Mrs.


    Langford! I honestly have no idea what spell that b*tch cast to make Grandma like her so much. What if


    she insists on having that b*tch marry into the family once she wakes up? Use your time wisely, Cindy.


    Think it over!” With that, Mrs. Langford ended the call abruptly. Cindy’s expression was thunderous upon


    hearing Mrs. Langford’s words. What thetter said was right.


    Madam Langford had never taken a liking to her before, not even once. Cindy was fine with that, but the


    thing was, the old woman insisted on Tina bing her granddaughter-inw. The reason Tina was


    chased out of the family this time was because of Madam Langford’s ident.


    What if the old woman wanted Tina to return once she regained her consciousness ? Samuel was a filial


    grandson, so he would never turn her down. Rather than Tina, Madam Langford was the biggest


    obstacle in Cindy’s path to bing the future Mrs. Langford. She shot a cold look in the old woman’s


    direction, who remained unconscious on her hospital bed. Tubes were injected into various parts of her


    body, making her look extremely weak. If Madam Langford were to die at a time like this, Samuel would


    definitely me Tina for her death. By then, Cindy would be able to get away scot-free. No one would


    suspect her as the true killer. Thus, a bold thought started manifesting in Cindy’s mind. There wasn’t a


    trace of worry in her heart when she cooked up her vile n. Instead, excitement coursed through her


    veins.

    Cindy’s expression gradually became more twisted as hand toward Madam Langford’s oxygen tube…
