At the same time, Henry yelled, "He can't save you! You're mine, Tina!"She was his woman and only his—he would never let her be with another man, let alone stop loving him!With those words, he jammed his lips firmly on Tina's once more, refusing to let her say John's name again.If there was a name she must breathe, it must be his!"Mmmph!" Tina kept struggling, but Henry pressed even harder!Outside, John's eyes flashed viciously.Half an hour ago, he had received an anonymous call telling him that Henry was downstairs at Tina's apartment.Concerned that Henry would hurt her, John did not wait to verify the call and drove over at top speed. He saw Henry's car immediately from afar, and it was shaking subtly despite the dimness.What that meant was clear, and remembering the call, he rushed over to the car.It was obviously customized and soundproofed, but he still heard the voices when he was near enough.It was soft and almost could not be heard if one was not listening t

John punched Henry very hard, catching him off guard and sending his face sideways.His lip tore, and he could taste blood.But before he could balance himself, John was launching another punch.Henry promptly parried it, wobbling as he did and his back slamming into a tree.Several glass shards stabbed dipped into his back, leaving his black shirt wet with blood.However, his eyes flashed coldly as he looked up at John, as if he did not feel pain.Nonetheless, John strode up and grabbed his collar, growling with furious disdain, "Forcing yourself on a woman?! How are you different from an animal?!"Henry wiped the blood off his lip with his thumb, the taste igniting his jealousy.Just as he lowered his hand, he suddenly launched a punch.John turned his head aside to avoid it, but Henry had quick reflexes, launching another as soon as the first missed.It struck true as John could not dodge in time, putting some distance between them.Henry then flashed a smile that did not

Over the last five years, Henry never had to use force on Tina, and they were in bed most of the time.In fact, he knew her body better than herself, and getting her aroused was all too easy.But tonight…Henry panicked, as he remembered that he was doing everything he could, but Tina was still repulsed.The more he tried to prove that her body would be more honest—to prove that she loved him as she always did—it only ended up showing that her body was rejecting him as she said.Did that mean that she did not love him anymore? Henry immediately rejected the thought, because that was impossible!-Meanwhile, John escorted Tina back to her apartment unit, helping her to the couch and getting a glass of honey drink from the kitchen. "Have a drink."As Tina sipped it, she found the temperature just right."Thank you so much," she said then.If he had not showed up, she would not have gotten away."As long as you're fine." He nodded, balling his fists to stop himself from patti

Tina clenched her fists.So Henry was not just a fool—he was a cuck too!And he wanted Rory's name in the family annals? Hah!When that day arrived, she was going to take this paternity test result to the Barnes family altar and smack it right in Henry's face, so that the entire Barnes family would see the joke he was!Abusing her dear Sophie over a brat who was not even his… she would show him how much he really owed Sophie!-Despite hating Barnes Ranch, Tina came to visit Madam Barnes, who was one of the few people who was actually good to her and genuinely cared, in her house.Knowing that Tina despised the rest of the Barnes family, Madam Barnes had dinner with Tina in her own house.However, just as they were chatting, Henry and Roger entered."Mother.""Grandma."Madam Barnes scowled at them in disdain at once. "What are you doing here?"Roger replied respectfully, "We'd like to ask about your thoughts about Henry and Linda—""I don't want her to marry into my famil
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 166
Linda was moved to tears as Henry had agreed that it would be the 26th.Henry sat on the couch, watching her as she reveled in joy.It was the only reaction one would have when their wish was granted after waiting for so many years.And for all intents and purposes, Henry should be reacting the same way, since he had waited just as long, and they were finally going to walk down the aisle together.Now, he would fulfill the promise that he had made to Orange and marry her and give her and her nomadic mother a home.And he would love her for the rest of their lives.So, why was he not feeling any joy?Rory was jubilant too. She threw herself into Henry's arms and wrapped her little arms around his neck as she asked happily, "Daddy, when they ask me who my daddy is, can I tell them super loudly that my daddy is Henry Barnes?""Yeah." Henry nodded, feeling mixed emotions at the question. Placing Rory on his lap, he then asked, "Do your friends always ask that?""Yes! And they al
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 167
The ceremony would begin at eleven.When Tina arrived at the Barnes Ranch half past nine, luxury cars were parked everywhere outside the main gates.All the rich and powerful were invited, while the press were waiting at a corner for their exclusive.Even though Linda and Rory did not show their faces when Henry had rented all of Wonderland to celebrate Rory's birthday, it was already known to the public Henry had a daughter with a woman.And now, he intended to go public with them at this ceremony today.Even among the bigwigs of Jadelight, such pomp and circumstances for a ceremony was like no other.Tina sat in her car for a moment, her eyes cool as she watched the grandeur of it all.Henry really went all out where Linda and Rory were concerned and wanted nothing less to give them the best the world had to offer.Henry and his father Roger were even greeting all the guests.Everyone present knew that there was another important matter, aside from Henry revealing his future
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 168
After Henry carried Rory into the room and gently put her down, she sat beside Henry, utterly well disciplined.After all, Linda had told her that once she wrote her name in that thick tome, she would become the heiress of the Barnes family and rise above the rest.No one would get to bully her again, and most importantly, Sophie's name was not in it, and Sophie would never be acknowledged.With this, Rory would be Henry's only daughter and the one he acknowledged, while Sophie was nothing!Sophie would never get Henry—Henry could only be Rory's!On the other hand, Linda was left standing outside and only watching as was tradition, since she was not really a member of the family yet.Inside, everything proceeded as planned, with Rory paying her respects to the forebears of the Barnes family, bowing as hard as she could as Linda had told her to and almost bleeding by the time she was done.The only thing remaining after was just the inclusion of her name in the family annals.As
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 169
After all, Roger cared a lot about tradition and would only hate Tina even more.And Roger was indeed scowling, but he could not do much with Henry standing between them.Shooting his butler a look, he said sternly, "Get her out of here."Seeing that Tina was not moving, Henry's tone turned cold too. "Stop messing around. It's important for Rory to write her name in the family annals, but I will do the same for Sophie when you bring her back.""Hehe…" Tina suddenly laughed coolly, her lips curled up as she turned coldly toward Linda, who was just bragging about Rory becoming a member of the Barnes family not two seconds ago.Pushing Henry away, she walked straight toward Henry's granduncle, asking, "Excuse me, but what is the most important thing for a child's name to be included in the family annals?"Henry's granduncle was close with Madam Barnes and therefore extended his respect for her to Tina."The most important thing? The blood of the Barnes family, of course," he replie

As long as Zach did not give Henry any proof, Linda's advantage was absolute.As she shot Rory a look, Rory did as she instructed and threatened Zach, "Daddy, if you give Henry the evidence, I'll never forgive you."I love Mommy and don't want anything to happen to her, and I'll die if anything happens to her.""And I'm not kidding, Daddy. Remember, my fate is the same as Mommy's—she gave me life, and I won't live if she's not by my side."Zach's hand was shaking even as he held the telephone receiver.Rory was only seven, but she could talk about death so lightly and threaten him with her own life.Why did she love Linda so much after everything Linda did to her?! How codependent did Linda make her?However, Rory was beyond Zach's reach, and he was really worried she might try to kill herself.As for Henry, it was clear that he did not love Linda anymore, and Rory was ultimately not of his blood.If Henry so much as neglected Rory, she might really die.And Rory was Zach's o

The warden nodded at Zach. "Yes. Now clean yourself up, and then come with me."The other inmates did not know who Zach had met earlier, but were now all happy for him to hear that his daughter had come.He had been constantly talking about her—how adorable she was, how good her grades were, and he was even calling her name in his sleep.As such, they all knew how much he treasured her and urged him to hurry.Still, Zach meticulously groomed his hair and even washed his face to look clean and spirited, and only then did he follow the warden.Soon, he found both Linda and Rory standing there in the non-contact visit room.By now, any lingering affection he felt for Linda had dissipated after she used him like a tool repeatedly. As it was not visitation hours, only Zach, Linda, and Rory were in there.As soon as she sat down and picked up the telephone, Linda did the same on the other end and promptly asked, "Did Henry come to ask you for evidence? Did you give it to him?"Zach

"Yes, it's ready," Yancy said. "Do I send it now?""Yeah," Henry replied.He had personally arranged for everything Mrs. Smith could possibly need, as he wanted very much to make amends.At the same time, he was fulfilling the promise he made when he was ten—to repay Mama Orange's grace.Now that he realized she was alive, he wanted to give her all that was good in the world, so that she would not have anything to worry about for the rest of her life.As they left prison, Andy took a cab.He arranged for all the presents prepared to be delivered to Tina's apartment, while Henry drove straight to the hospital on his own.-Linda was watching as Henry drove off and promptly alighted.She was never one to sit back and wait to die.The first thing she must do now was to determine if Zach had given Henry the evidence and decide what to do from there.If Zach had, then she just had to come up with another plan.Otherwise, she would never let Henry get his hands on the evidence ag
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 541
It was Henry's car.He really came, and he arrived earlier than she did.At that moment, Linda felt a chill creeping up from her toes, extending throughout her body.She was terrified at the idea that Zach would really give Henry the evidence.Without evidence, she could just stubbornly deny anything that Tina accused her of doing, and even Henry could not do anything about that.That meant she would still have a chance to use Rory and turn things around, reclaiming her life of privilege.On the other hand, it would be all over for her if Henry really received the evidence.-Meanwhile, Henry was watching Zach with his dark eyes that seemed to pierce his heart, while speaking quietly, "I'm a man of my word, Zach Foster. That little bit of money is really nothing to me."There was no doubt that his offer was very tempting—right now, all Zach wanted was for his daughter to be healthy.Once he served his term and was freed again, he could spend the rest of his life with her, tak
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 540
That was why Zach presumed that Henry would keep granting Rory the same life of privilege he gave her before, not knowing what Henry really meant.After all, sending Rory to the worst boarding school, ensuring that she would not starve to death but otherwise completely neglecting her until Zach left prison, could still count as taking care of her.Doing that much, and getting Zach's evidence in exchange, was assuredly a bargain.Still, Zach's eyes widened, his pupils dilating as Henry mentioned Linda hiring someone for murder.His reaction only made Henry even more certain that he had evidence.Nonetheless, Zach only pursed his lips, not acknowledging right away that he had evidence, and did not take Henry's deal.He lowered his gaze, silently thinking.Since he was behind bars, he had no idea what was going on out there.But judging from the fact that Henry came asking, he must have seen through Linda's true nature and would never believe a word she said ever again.And that
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 539
But when Zach returned to Linda's hospital room later, he suddenly claimed that there was never evidence—that Tina had bribed him to slander Linda in the first place.Henry found that very suspicious—why would he suddenly change his mind?Then, he remembered that when he caught Linda with Zach the first time, Linda accused Zach of forcing himself on her.Zach denied it and even exposed Linda for abusing Rory to take Rory away from Linda.He had been crying and begging to separate Rory from Linda, or Linda would keep abusing Rory.Henry saw in his eyes then that he really loved Rory.After he left Tina's apartment earlier today, Henry started to reevaluate all the moments in the past that involve Linda.He knew that Zach had lost all hope in Linda and exposed her to take Rory away.That meant Rory would also be the reason he suddenly changed his mind, even allowing himself to be scapegoated for Linda's crimes.That meant Rory was Zach's weakness.So Henry decided to visit him—
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 538
Even if Henry heard Rory, she could cry herself hoarse but he would not change his mind.Meanwhile, the security guards kept Linda toward Rory, who had long since lost her shoes, while her socks were torn as they scraped along the ground.The fake nails that she had gone through lengths to maintain were chipped, while one of her nails was knocked off.She grimaced, turning pale in terrible pain.When she finally recovered enough to talk, the security guards dumped her like trash beside Rory, along with her wheelchair."Stay as far away as you can. If you show up here again, we won't be gentle!"With those words, the security guards left.Rory was sobbing as she dropped to her knees beside Linda, fumbling to help her off the ground.Seeing the marks left around her neck and her bleeding legs, her tears poured with heartache. "Does it hurt, Mommy? I'll blow on it, and it won't hurt anymore…"As Linda straightened her back, she completely ignored Rory's concern and slapped her ac
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 537
As Henry strangled Linda, he snarled, "Why would Tina push you in the first place?! You knew she was depressed and tried to drive her to suicide with Sophie's ashes! That's why she snapped and fought back!"It's your comeuppance, and you dare blame it on Tina?! You must want to die so badly!"His hands were very strong, and Linda could not breathe.As the fear of death seized her, she clawed at Henry's hand while gasping through her teeth, "I didn't… Tina's lying… Sophie's ashes are still in her grave… You can't take Tina's words at face value…"She had been prepared for this for two years, but Henry was not buying any of it.She was just humiliating herself even though she tried to maintain her innocence. Over the years, she never needed proof to make him believe her just because she had been Orange in his mind.But now, the same thing applied to Tina—Henry was completely refusing to listen to her and had already decided she was guilty.He absolutely hated her guts, and his h
Unfulfilled Last Wish Chapter 536
The security guards had seen how Henry cradled Rory in his arms, smiling at her with more affection than they would with their own daughters.That was why despite what Henry said, they were afraid to get physical, in fear they misjudged their strength and hurt Henry's treasured daughter.Then, after a couple days of when he calmed down, he would be coming for their heads…Still, Henry shot Andy a look just then, and he returned to the security guards as he explained coolly, "Mr. Barnes absolutely loathes these two. You have nothing to worry about."After what Linda and Rory had done, Henry would not stand the sight of them, let alone dote on them.In fact, he only gave a damn before he loved Orange too much and really believed that Linda was Orange, blindly following his feelings instead of being rational. "Yes, Mr. Cox."Andy was Henry's right-hand man, and his words were as good as Henry's words. And Henry's position was clear—Linda and Rory were not allowed to show up here
