Chapter 537

Penulis: Angelica1
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

    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

    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—

    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

    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

    "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

    Tina Smith was the only person present for her daughter's cremation, and her loose black dress barely hid the weight she had lost.Her wistful eyes were red and puffy from tears too, and she took out a pair of hair pins, arching her back as she gently slid them into her daughter's hair.It was a birthday present for her daughter, which she had designed herself."Happy birthday, baby. Mommy will always love you."As Tina leaned down to gently kiss her daughter's forehead, the icy touch to her lips left tears welling up in her eyes again.It was soon time nonetheless."My condolences."A crematory assistant approached Tina, reminding her politely, "When is the father coming?"There was a father noted on the papers, after all.Still, there was a brief flicker of coldness in Tina's eyes. "He isn't coming!""But are you really not going to wait?"The crematory assistant was a father himself, so he understood that he would be burdened with a lifetime of regret if he did not see hi

    Henry's glower faded, replaced by a tender smile as he answered without hesitation, "Okay!"With that, he turned and hurried out of the villa, choosing the daughter he had with Linda—abandoning Tina and Sophie once again.Tina stood where she was, her heart breaking as her arms tightened around the urn containing Sophie's ashes.She then gently patted it, like a quiet gesture to comfort her daughter.Ever since Linda returned from abroad with her daughter, Henry had given them his absolute undivided attention.It did not matter what time it was or what he was doing—he would be there with just a phone call.And while Tina had no issue with abandonment, her heart ached for Sophie.She was so sweet and kind, only for her father to hurt her time and time again!Fortunately, this would be the last.It would never happen again!-In the VIP ward of Jadelight Hospital, Linda was coaxing her daughter Rory.Then, watching as Henry entered, she exclaimed in surprise, "What are you do

    When Henry came to his senses, he growled at Tina with an icy tone that cut to the bone, "Have you lost your mind?!"Reaching out, Henry caught Tina's wrist before she could continue, glaring viciously at her.The sight of the man—who was always so haughty—changing completely for his beloved woman left Tina's eyes red.Bitterness welled up in her heart.And she had loved him for ten years!"Yes, I have. And I should've lost it a long time ago," she snapped and suddenly slapped Henry across the face!"It's over between us, Henry."She had wanted to say that since the moment her daughter died.And now, they would simply go their separate ways!She withdrew her hand, finding her palm numb as she had put her back into it.Henry's left cheek reddened visibly in return—it was the first time in his life that he had been slapped by a woman.Glaring at Tina with viciousness that was beyond description, he chuckled coolly. "Heh."Tina did not bother arguing and turned to leave—she kn

    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

    Rory never realized—or perhaps she never felt like she had been the aggressor, even smartly avoiding the more important issues so that she could elaborate on what would make Henry care all the more.That was when Henry coolly pulled his leg out of Rory's grasp, and she lost her balance, collapsing and sprawled on the floor."Daddy…?" She looked up blankly, confusion starting to show in her eyes.How could Henry be so indifferent to her injuries, even pulling away from her touch?In fact, he did not look like he cared at all as she fell over, let alone reach down to help her out or blow the pain away.However, Henry's opinion of Rory had changed altogether after last night, and he was now further convinced that the apple did not fall far from the tree—that she was beyond saving.If the teachers at the elite school had not contacted him first to probe his reaction, he really would not have known.That Rory, who was always so kind and well-behaved around him, was not just bullying

    Rory was unaware of that and was feeling frustrated after Henry walked out on her last night.So when she came to school, she was keen to vent her feelings on one of her classmates.She had her friends drag her next victim to the washroom again, but even as she was ready to dish out a beating, her friends and the next victim suddenly turned on her. Working together, they gave her a beating, repaying her with the pain she had dished out for so long, even shoving her head down the toilet.She begged for mercy, but to no avail.-When Linda arrived outside the principal's office, she ignored the other parents and examined Rory's injuries in silence.Then, she took her hand and led her outside the room."Mommy…?" Rory called out softly.However, Linda continued to steer her wheelchair out of the school before finally telling Rory, "Let's go to your daddy. Do you know what to say?""Yes!" Rory promptly nodded—she really wanted to see Henry too.And with that, they took a taxi to
