Chapter 155
His sudden movement shocked Tina, who immediately swung the fruit knife toward Samuel to defend
herself.
“Get away from me…!”
Before she could finish her sentence, Samuel grabbed the knife and held it with his bare hands. Tina,
taken aback, looked at Samuel in horror.
The knife was promptly taken away and thrown to the ground in a split-second. Everything happened so
quickly, she couldn’t process it. “W-Why didn’t you dodge?” Tina was confused by the situation, for she
never meant to hurt Samuel. There was a deep cut across his palm, and the blood was trickling out non
stop. The sight shocked her once more, and she dropped onto the floor in fright. She had ughtered
ducks and chickens when she was growing up, but this was her first time hurting someone. To make
matters worse, that someone was the cruel Samuel Langford!
Samuel’s expressions remained the same the entire time. He grabbed Tina’s arm, as heartless as ever.
Just as he was about to drag Tina forcefully out of the room, John appeared.

(Wait.”
The atmosphere turned freezing cold when Samuel saw John, who was bringing in food for Tina.
“John, if I were you, I wouldn’t interrupt.” But John insisted on blocking the door. “Don’t you want to know
why Tina doesn’t want to follow you back?”
John didn’t let Samuel respond and continued in the same breath, “I’ve gathered quite a few proofs, but I
think Miss Young should exin herself.” As he spoke, a small figure walked towards them from behind
John.
Tina frowned instantly when she saw who it was.
“Cindy!”
“Cindy? What are you doing here?” Samuel frowned as well. “What’s going on?” Cindy had never felt so
hopeless when John confronted her. In the end, she was still clinging to the feeble hope that John would
let her off the hook However, John was unmoved. If Cindy refused to admit to her crimes, he would
expose everything she had done to Tina so far, including how much she had exploited the Langford
family. If that happened, Cindy knew she would be done for!
“I’m so sorry, Samuel… Please, please forgive me!”
Cindy knelt and grabbed Samuel’s leg, tears streaming down her cheeks. “I was blinded with jealousy! I
was jealous that you two got married, and tried to get revenge. I ordered people to kidnap her and ruin
her reputation, all just to make her leave you…” Cindy was crying loudly as she came clean with
everything she had done to Tina. “I know nothing can ever justify any of my actions. Let me pay my debt
by giving you my life! Let’s meet again in another life!” Cindy’s eyes went red as she finished. Then, she
banged her head against the wall.
Samuel’s stoic face finally had a change of expression the moment he realized it was Cindy who was the
cause of everything that had happened. The truthid bare, he came to see that he had misunderstood
Tina again and again… But when he saw Cindy about to take her own life, he let go of Tina’s hand and
stopped Cindy. Cindy, on the other hand, was thrilled. She knew Samuel would never let her die! It was
the only way to save her pathetic reputation! “Samuel, just let me do it! I know how much you hate
traitors. I don’t wish to be hated by you, so just let me die instead…”
Cindy wanted to continue acting, until she saw the cut on Samuel’s palm. “Ah!”
Her face turned pale and she fainted instantly. John quickly stood in front of Tina to shield her and said
determinedly, “I never wanted to interfere in your private matters, Mr. Langford. But Tina is my sister, and
there’s no way I’m going to let her be the scapegoat!”
