Chapter 233
Where would Kara go if Tina disappeared? If Frederick knew about what happened to her, would he take care of Kara for her?
Right then, someone called out to Samuel in a coy and flirtatious tone, “Samuel!”
Samuel turned and frowned. When he spoke, his voice reflected intense displeasure.
“Why are you here?”
Cindy looked sad and wronged as she wailed, “Samuel, I’m just worried about you! It’s already late at night, and it’s freezing out here.” Noticing that Samuel looked angry, Cindy hurriedly explained further, “Besides, I can’t stay here any longer. I’m really worried about Keith. He’s been missing for days, and we still
couldn’t find him. What if something bad happened to him? As a mother, I can’t breathe when I think about this.”
While she spoke, sorrowful tears streamed down her face.
Samuel frowned. It didn’t seem like Cindy was faking it. After all, Keith was her biological son. As a mother, it was only natural for her to worry about his safety.
“Keith’s a smart boy. I’m sure he knows how to take care of himself. Besides, the reason I brought you here is to let him know that you’ve returned to my side. I’m sure he’ll show himself up sooner or later.” “Really?” Cindy wiped off her tears and said excitedly, “Then, let’s return to the banquet. Let’s walk around together so that Keith will notice us and come back as soon as possible.” novelbin
Samuel didn’t reply. Instead, his gaze swept around the place.
There was nobody in the backyard.
Perhaps, he had seen it wrongly.
“Samuel, what are you looking for?” Cindy asked curiously.
“It’s nothing,” Samuel looked at the bushes one last time and said, “Let’s go.”
“Alright.” Cindy smiled brightly as she attempted to wrap her arm around Samuel’s.
However, Samuel walked past her and rejected her gesture coldly.
Cindy gritted her teeth and thought angrily, ‘It’s alright! As long as I’m the only woman around him, I still have a chance to win his heart.’
After they left, Tina shifted uncomfortably in the bush.Her head popped out from the leaves.
She smiled, relieved. “That’s a close call!’
Her gown was destroyed by the twigs and branches around her, and she had sprained her knee from tripping on her heels just now. On top of that, her legs had grown numb from squatting
in the bushes for so long. At this moment, she looked unkempt and haggard. Worried that the two villains would return, she didn’t think twice before limping her way toward the back door.
Tina returned to her apartment. When she entered the door, relief engulfed her as she slumped to the ground. “Tina, you’re back!” Frederick’s voice rang from inside.
Since Tina had to attend the fashion banquet tonight, Frederick was here to take care of Kara and Keith
He heard the door clicking shut and walked toward the living room. The moment he saw Tina’s appearance, he became concerned. “Tina… What happened to you?” he asked, worried. Tina was still shivering at the thought of what just happened. “Frederick, I saw him at the banquet.” The only person who could frighten Tina like that was Samuel Langford. “What?” Frederick’s complexion changed instantly. “Did he see you?”
Tina bit her lip and shook her head. “No, he didn’t! If he did, I wouldn’t have come back alive!”
“That’s good!” Frederick heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he said worriedly, “Why don’t we change our schedule? I’ll send Kara and Keith to school. As long as you don’t show yourself to the public, I don’t think he will spot you.” Tina nodded, agreeing “We’re left with no other choice.” Since Tina was back, Frederick didn’t stay any longer and left the house.
