Chapter 133 Pearl was elated when she saw Tina drooping her head in defeat. But when she saw the man at the door, her eyes widened in disbelief. “Oh my god! It’s Mr. Langford” Nobody expected Samuel Langford to show himself. He scanned the room and landed his gaze on Tina, who was sitting in the corner. He ignored everyone’s gazes and walked slowly towards Tina. “What exactly are you playing at now, Tina?” he interrogated as he towered over her. His voice was cold and emotionless. ‘I’ve only been separated from her for a few days. What did she do this time? How annoying!’ he thought, furious.
Tina was terrified. She didn’t expect Samuel to turn up at all. Samuel’s attitude towards Tina left Pearl as giddy as a child.
Last time, Samuel almost murdered her entire family just to root out Tina’s location. That incident was still etched vividly in Pearl’s mind.
‘Samuel must’ve heard about what Tina did. I’m sure he’s here to punish that b*tch!’ Pearl thought in glee. Pearl knew this was her chance to get Samuel’s attention. She explained enthusiastically, “Mr. Langford, this b*tch right here stole a diamond ring. Not only was she caught in the act, but she also refused to admit her crime by giving excuses after excuses. Right now, she’s about to be sent to jail!
Listening to her wild accusations, Tina clenched her fists and said, “Pearl, cut your crap. I already told you, I didn’t do it.”
Pearl couldn’t contain her emotions and burst out laughing. “Now that things have come to this, I can’t believe you’re still lying to save your own ass! If you didn’t steal it, then where and how did you get the ring?”
Own a
Samuel listened to Pearl’s accusation. He immediately frowned. He looked at the diamond ring in Pearl’s hand and replied in a cold hiss, “That diamond ring belongs to me.”
Pearl was stunned. She grew even more excited and spoke with renewed vigor. “Oh, Tina! How dare you steal Mr. Langford’s ring!” ‘No wonder Samuel rushed here. Tina’s in big trouble now!’ Pearl thought, excited beyond anything She wanted Samuel to know she had nothing to do with Tina. So, she added, “Mr. Langford, the Lynd family has severed ties with Tina a long time ago. I can’t believe she did this to you! A woman like her must face grave consequences…”
As Pearl blabbered on, she noticed that Samuel’s face looked a bit odd. It almost seemed like he was unhappy with what she said.
Although she was confused, Pearl gritted her teeth and went on, “I’ll make sure she gets the punishment she deserves!”
Then, she stretched her long and ghastly nails out to slap Tina.
Right at this moment, Samuel grasped her arm tightly and stopped her. “Ouch!” Pearl let out a pained gasp. Her complexion turned pale instantly. “Mr. Langford, what are you doing? I’m trying to help you! Why are you treating me like this?” “You’re helping me?” Samuel flashed her a sinister smirk that sent shivers down one’s spine He shoved Pearl away, sending her flying and crashing into the lawyer. It caught them unaware and they both stumbled to the ground, presenting a truly ugly sight to the eyes. “That diamond ring belongs to me. As for why Tina has that in her possession, that’s because she’s my woman! If anyone here dares to stir trouble with her again, I’ll make sure you suffer an early death!”
It almost seemed like everyone just stepped on a landmine. The moment it exploded, they were petrified beyond all reasoning.
Tina looked at Samuel’s wide shoulders, rather stunned. All of a sudden, a sense of security rose inside her. Pearl was indignant. She screeched in disbelief, “What? There’s no way!”
