Chapter 317
For a moment, Tina was surprised.
This phone was given to her by Samuel just this morning.
Even her SIM card was brand new. Who would be calling her number at a time like this?

Tina nced at the screen, quickly realizing that Frederick wasn’t the one calling her. Instead, it was an
unknown number.
But before she could pick up the call, two tall figures suddenly appeared behind her and covered her
mouth.
Tina never realized that someone would still dare to make a move on her under broad daylight.
She passed out, not having the strength to struggle against them. As she copsed to the floor in a dead
heap, the phone that she was carrying slid out of her hand.
The bodyguards that were dispatched to capture her had already studied her face beforehand, so they
were able to determine her identity immediately.
“She‘s the woman Mr. Langford brought with himst night, right?” “Yes. That‘s right. She‘s the one. Take
her away!” After Tina was taken away, the unknown number called her a few times in a row.
Meanwhile, Samuel was throwing a hissy fit in the study.
His subordinates all had their heads lowered, not even daring to breathe around him.
“Where the hell did she go?!” he snarled.
“Miss Lynd was carrying a bag of clothes just now. She said she was sending them to theundromat...”
“So she has time to go to theundromat, but she doesn‘t have time to pick up my call? Good! This is
wonderful!”
When Samuel heard the dead toneing from the other end of the line, he threw the phone against the
wall angrily, agitation bing increasingly obvious on his face. At that moment, he looked beyond
frightening. Having noticed his furious state, the subordinates all wiped cold sweat off their brows.
They all knew that Samuel was diagnosed with insomnia for many years, which made him incredibly
bad–tempered. But no matter how busy or tiring work was for him in the past, he had never lost his
temper in this manner. To think that he would be enraged by a woman‘s refusal to pick up his calls... The
subordinates tried to appease Samuel by saying, “Perhaps Miss Lynd is busy with something at the
moment. She couldn‘t have run away, right?”
“Run?”
Samuel picked up that term sharply. A dark expression appeared on his face immediately. Right now, he
had two leverages over Tina‘s head. One was Frederick, while the other was Kara. Tina was willing to go
through humiliation for the sake of those two. She made it seem as if she was unable to live without
them.
Then again, Samuel didn‘t exclude the possibility of her putting on an borate act just to lower his
guard.
After all, he had seen for himself just how ruthless that woman was. Samuel didn‘t hesitate to order,
“Investigate where she is right now!” He strode out of the study right away after issuing that order. The
remaining subordinates could only swap nervous nces after that. “Isn‘t Miss Lynd just an ordinary
secretary? Why did Mr. Langford go to great lengths for her?”
“I think he wouldn‘t be this furious if Mrs. Langford was the one who got into trouble...” “Come on.
Remember when Mr. Langford couldn‘t even be bothered to go look for Young Master Keith when he ran
away from homest time?” “She‘s not a secretary, is she? She seems like the Langfords‘ ancestor or
something!”
At that moment, everyone felt like bursting into tears.
At the same time, they quickly understood something about Samuel. The woman who seemed like a
regr secretary must not be offended, no matter what. Otherwise, they would be in deep trouble!
Meanwhile, Tina was thrown to the floor and was violently woken up by a pail of ice–cold water.
The moment she opened her eyes, she heard a smug female voice. “So, you‘re finally awake!” “It’s
you!” Tina recognized the beautiful secretary that she had met moments ago. Her expression changed
drastically as she asked, “What are you trying to do?”
