Tina nodded hurriedly. Her worry for Keitli was gentine,
After all, they had spent a few days living together in the past. During the few days they spent together, she realized that she would space out and start thinking of Keith as lier actual son.
Samuel studied Tina’s expression while maintaining his high and mighty posture. Finally, he said, “Okay. If you want to see him, you can go visit hiin tomorrow.”
Tina was surprised for a moment before a smile bloomed on her face.
“Really? That’s great!” She had always been meek and reserved in front of Samuel, not daring to reveal too many of her thoughts to him.
After all, Samuel’s emotions were so unpredictable that no one knew what he was thinking. There was a chance that any of her words could rile him up easily.
It was only at that moment that Tina was able to let go of all her worries and smile brightly at Samuel
The latter’s eyes darkened at the sight of her smile. His Adam’s apple bobbed up and down involuntarily.
“It’s too early for you to be happy. I have a few conditions for you.
Just like that, Tina’s heart fell back into the abyss.
The reason Samuel came looking for her wasn’t to make her happy, of course. What else could he seek from her other than her personal services?
She could only bow her head and say dejectedly, “Okay. I’ll do my best…” The sight of her meek and submissive form frustrated Samuel to no end. Was Tina that reluctant to look at him?
She didn’t even bother to conceal her true feelings from him.
Samuel witnessed Tina being arrogant and strong in front of everyone else, but in front of him, she would put on a timid and frightened appearance. That transformation made him want to choke the woman in front of him to death.
“What are you standing there like an idiot for? Get in.” “Oh. Okay.”
Tina didn’t dare to defy Samuel’s order.
She followed him all the way to the dining hall before surprise set in. “Didn’t you eat just now? Why are you eating again?”
The servant was scared to death when she heard Tina’s words. She quickly explained, “Miss Lynd, you’ve misunderstood! Mr. Langford is often busy with work, so he doesn’t have regular mealtimes. I heard from his assistant that he’s just finished his work for the day, so he
finally has time to eat something.”
Tina finally realized that the meal was meant for Samuel, and not her. She couldn’t help but let her thoughts wander. How was it possible for Samuel to not starve to death despite working all the time
without eating? “What are you mumbling about, Tina?” Samuel’s dark voice echoed from next to her ear.
Scared out of her wits, Tina instinctively covered her mouth.
Sh*t! Did she speak her mind subconsciously?
After studying Samuel’s expression, she deduced that he didn’t hear her at all. Otherwise, he would have just chucked her out of the mansion instead of asking her that question. “… I wasn’t mumbling anything at all! I was just thinking that you should take good care of yourself, since you don’t eat regularly…” Even as Tina made up that excuse, she herself could barely believe the sincerity behind it. As expected, Samuel harrumphed coldly before asking, “Why are you worried about me? Shouldn’t you be wishing for me to die?” Guilt overcame Tina’s mind as she chuckled dryly. Left without a choice, she kept making up more excuses.
“W-Why would I do that? Of course I’m worried about your health, Mr. Langford.”
“You’re such a liar.”
Samuel’s reply was filled with disgust, but he didn’t look like he was about to blow his lid anytime soon.
He must be starving since he had chosen to let Tina off the hook for the time being. He had her cut up his steak and place food on his plate for him.
After dinner, Samuel dabbed his mouth with a napkin before speaking.
“Return to work at the company tomorrow.” Stunned, Tina couldn’t help but ask in shock, “Huh? Why?”
