Chapter 277

Author: Angelica1
Even after Henry was hospitalized after over-drinking over overwhelming guilt from Sophie's death, Tina still remained cold as ever.

That was why Andy had the nagging feeling that Tina did not mean well when she asked to see Henry.

He never expected that the woman who was so gentle and delicate around Henry could get so cold.

And the longer he stayed in his car downstairs, the more uneasy he was.

That was why he came upstairs.

After knocking on the door and waiting over a dozen seconds without answer, his face dropped.

As Henry's assistant, he naturally knew the password to his lodgings.

Still, he panicked and got it wrong twice.

When he finally succeeded on the third attempt, he promptly opened the door, his face dropping when he picked up the scent of blood in the air.

"Mr. Barnes!" he cried as he rushed inside, immediately finding Henry on the ground, bleeding a ton from his stomach and barely alive.

Tina was just one pace away, and the fruit knife covered in blood that la

  • Unfulfilled Last Wish   Chapter 560

    Linda arrived in the airport in thirty minutes, wearing a face mask and a hat as she steered her wheelchair, carefully observing her surroundings.She had no idea if Henry had learned about Rory's death yet, or if Henry got Zach's evidence and handed it over to the police.If the police failed to find her at the hospital or Zach's rented apartment, would they suspect that she had gone to the airport and send someone to make the arrest?She was exceedingly uneasy with all the unknowns, and hence waited nervously outside the airport, feeling for the first time how long time could seem to stretch on, with the minutes feeling like years.When it was finally time to check-in at the terminal, she steered her wheelchair to the forefront of the queue, clearing the checkpoint.She was relieved even though the passport control officer asked for her to take off her mask, as she would have been intercepted if there was a warrant for her arrest.Her undergarments were soaked in sweat within m

    His fingers shaking, Zach tapped on the first of two videos.It was the footage taken from the security cameras outside Henry's villa, and just seeing it almost destroyed Zach.His fingers clenched around the tablet, and there was no hiding the pain in his eyes.Because in the video, Rory's face was deathly pale and barely clinging to life.Even as she leaned on Linda's arms, she was tugging on Linda's shirt as she begged through her agony, "Mommy… I can't take it anymore… I need the doctor…"Despite her pleas, Linda glared viciously at her, growling threateningly under her breath, "Keep begging, Rory Cook! If you can't make your daddy care or forgive you, then you should just die!"The video finished and moved on to the next, showing Rory laying on the crisp white sheets of a hospital bed, with no signs of life.The doctor was checking his watch before declaring the time and cause of Rory's death.And everything was just as it had been written in the death certificate that Hen

    When Zach heard what Henry said, he had barely sat down when he sprang to his feet again, his eyes wide and vicious as he lunged at Henry. "How dare you curse my daughter!"Henry simply caught his outstretched knuckle and spun him, slamming him on the table and holding him against it.He said nothing as he showed him the death certificate that Rory's doctor had sent him, and Zach stopped moving when he saw the title.His eyes widened and his pupils dilating, tears soon filled his eyes.As Henry released him, he took the death certificate with trembling fingers and saw Rory's name on it, while the cause was multiple organ failure.No… That was impossible!She came to visit just yesterday, and even called him 'Daddy' a few times—even if he knew she did so to help get what Linda wanted.Even so, just hearing it left him jubilant and blissful, even willing to lay down her life for her, let alone keeping Linda's dirty secret.As such, there was no way he would believe Henry showing

    Rory could not see anything even though she stared straight at the screen of the nurse's phone, but she did not turn away.She wanted to see Henry's reply as soon as it came, after all.However, she waited a while, but no reply came."It's alright—your daddy probably didn't see it. I'll call him for you, okay?" the nurse quickly said and tried to call the number in case the recipient did not see the text this time.But this time, the person on the other end hung up right away.The nurse promptly tried a second time, but her number was already blocked.Rory's eyes were glued to the nurse throughout, and she could tell what happened.Her lips were trembling, her tears slowly blurring her vision.She really wanted to tell Henry that she was not lying this time—that she was really going to die and would not be able to see him anymore.As death crept up on her, scenes of the past flooded her mind.Memories of how Henry doted on her were proof that he really loved her.But she lef

    Henry answered the phone and listened to Linda begging him to save Rory.However, he could not help remembering the day Sophie died, and that Tina must have called him repeatedly like this.But Linda was so vile that she knowingly put his phone on silent when she knew Tina was trying to save Sophie, so that he never heard those calls, while Tina was left in despair as she kept calling to no avail.He was afraid to even think how horrified Tina already was at the idea that Sophie might die.Every call that did not get through was a knife to her heart, plunging her further in despair.She would only be hurting even more when the doctor gave up.Tears were welling up in Henry's eyes at the thought.Even if he could not turn back time to the past and pick up Tina's very first call to prevent the tragedy from ever happening, he would make Linda pay.And that opportunity came when Linda arrived at his doorstep.Even if her maternal love was nothing compared to Tina's, Henry knew for

    Still, Linda had to wait for a while when Henry—who had another sleepless night—picked up and asked hoarsely, "Who's this?"Linda quickly cried, "Henry! Rory's in the hospital, but the doctor said he's done his best. Please, you have to help her. You're the only one who can—"Henry hung up even before Linda could finish.Although Rory was left lying in bed, drawing her final breaths thanks to the doctor's efforts, her turbid gaze lit up when she heard Linda calling Henry.Her lips squirmed ever so slightly, as she breathed frailly, "Daddy…"However, the light in her eyes faded when she saw that Henry hung up on Linda.Terrified, Linda quickly tried to call Henry again.To her delight, the call got through! Henry did not block the number! In the end, he still cared! If he still hated her, he would definitely have blocked the number as soon as he heard her voice!And as hope rekindled in her heart, she tried again after the first call went unanswered and tried a third time afte

    But now, Linda was terrified by the thought that Rory might really die.After a long night, the doors of the emergency room that were tightly shut throughout swung open.Linda's face was haggard after staying up the entire night, but her bloodshot eyes were filled with hope as she looked up at the doctor.She promptly steered her wheelchair toward him, asking, "How's my daughter? She's fine now, right?"However, the doctor replied grimly, "Sorry. We did our best."Linda did a double take. Did that mean Rory could not be saved? What was she going to do?!Panicking, Linda lost herself right then and grabbed the doctor's white coat maniacally, bellowing furiously, "You're a quack doctor! Can't you even do your job right?! It's just a fever, and you say you did your best?!"I'm warning you—I'll make you pay painfully if anything happens to my daughter! Now get back in there and cure her, you hear me?! She can definitely still be saved!"Linda thoroughly refused to accept reality

    However, Linda already had a taste of carnal pleasure, and Zach was really good in bed, delighting her every time they did it.That was why she could not abstain for long—she really wanted some action, and so did it with Zach again.She lied to Zach, telling him that he was the only one she loved, even though Henry had fallen in love with her at first sight.She said that she was just staying with Henry for his money and would leave him once she got enough. After that, she would move to another town with Zach, getting married and starting a family there.Zach was so lovesick that he believed everything she said, even believing it when she said she would keep herself chaste for his sake and would not get intimate with Henry.And seeing how far she was going for the sake of their future, Zach believed and obeyed her every word.At that time, she felt like she was in paradise—she had Henry's affection and wealth, and Zach, who would do his damndest to satiate her carnal desire.Tha

    Stricken by terrible panic, Linda's fingers were shaking as she pulled out her phone from her pocket and called the ambulance.After she told the emergency services about what had happened to Rory and where they were, she then looked down at Rory.Smacking her cheek, Linda warned, "Keep it together. Don't die on me, okay?!"Rory had not passed out entirely, but even if she heard Linda, she no longer had the strength to respond.And while waiting for the ambulance, Linda struck the gates as hard as she could, yelling, "Henry! Rory is really going to die! I'm begging you to come out and take her to the hospital!"As long as there was still time, she would not give up on luring Henry out, still delusional that Henry would come out and forgive Rory when he saw her so sick.However, the front door remained tightly shut and was so soundproof that Henry heard nothing from inside.-When the ambulance finally arrived and took Rory, she had already gone into shock.The doctor onboard h
