Chapter 269
Chapter 269 An Aston Martin was parked right outside the mansion. The man was wearing a custom tailored suit that fit his figure perfectly. The moment he appeared at the doorway, his aura was more than enough to make everyone submit to him.
Tina‘s heart felt as though it was being gripped viciously by an invisible hand. Her first instinct was to flee.
However, she was already very tired and weary from spending the entire night working. She was hugging a long gown to her chest as well. Out of carelessness, she accidentally stepped on the smooth fabric of the gown. “Ah!” C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
She let out a scream before slipping and falling to the floor. Samuel‘s sharp gaze instantly swept over to her fallen form. Afraid of being recognized, Tina quickly scrambled to her feet and left hurriedly with the gown in her arms. The man couldn‘t help but frown while asking, “Who‘s that suspicious–looking woman?” “That woman earlier was a fashion designer named Linda, Mr. Langford. Mrs. Langford was the one who invited her here.”
Linda?
So, that was the one. She looked even more ragged than the last time he met her. How did she even become a designer in the first place?
Samuel was reminded of the time he left the police station and dispatched his bodyguards to secretly tail the mother and daughter pair, only to lose them. A little girl‘s face popped into his mind at that moment. That girl was a lot cuter than her mother, that was for sure. He asked, “Is her daughter here as well?”
The servant was stunned, clearly not expecting Samuel to ask about the woman‘s personal life.
“Um... I think she came here on her own...” “On her own? What about her daughter?” Samuel‘s frown deepened even more. Back then, that woman had turned him down, saying that she needed to take care
of her daughter. However, the fact that she was here alone right now... What exactly did she mean by that?
Meanwhile, the servant was completely shell–shocked.
‘Doesn‘t Mr. Langford hate trouble the most? Why would he ask about someone else‘s personal matters? Plus, he‘s actually asking about someone else‘s daughter!‘ Well...
Those who didn‘t know Samuel would think that he was asking about his own daughter. While the servant was internally panicking, Cindy suddenly showed up.
“Samuel, you‘re finally back!” she chirped happily as she attempted to hug his arm.
However, one cold glance from Saritel‘s direction frightened her to the point she withdrew her hands immediately.
Ever since she was released from her imprisonment, Samuel had warned her not to attempt anything on him. Back then, she thought that he was still mad at her. Judging from how things were now, she was very sure that the vixen was the one who robbed him away from her.
Hatred filled Cindy‘s heart. The detective that she hired had yet to track down the vixen. But as she didn‘t dare to ask Samuel about the unknown woman, she could only respond in a coquettish way. “Samuel, have you had breakfast yet?” “No,” he replied coldly. Cindy continued, “Great! Let me prepare a breakfast of love for you!”
The moment her words fell, she turned around and headed toward the kitchen. The servants quickly exchanged glances. Those who could scuttle back to their own duties quickly did so.
“A breakfast of love? I think she‘s going to prepare a bomb of love!”
Those poor chefs will suffer a lot. She claims to be the one preparing breakfast, but she‘s the one who forces them to cook everything. Furthermore, she insists on causing trouble for the chefs. Ugh, the kitchen will be so dirty later. I don‘t want to go there!” The servants conversed among themselves when Tina blocked their way.
“I‘m sorry, but I have a few questions for you guys. I‘ve already prepared the clothes, but now that Mr. Langford is back, when can I present them to Mrs. Langford?”
Tina was trying to gauge the servants‘ replies in order to determine when Samuel would leave the mansion.
“You can just wait. He‘ll leave very soon.”
“Mr. Langford will leave because of Mrs. Langford, of course, don‘t go meeting her so soon to avoid getting treated like a punching bag.” The servants were very experienced when it came to these affairs. Since Tina had taken care of Keith the night before, they decided to leave her with extra tips.
“Okay. Got it.”
Tina heaved a sigh of relief. A short while later, however, a servant knocked on her room door with a message from Cindy. “Linda, Mrs. Langford is asking for you right now!”
