Soon, a waiter led Tina to a fitting room. She changed into a gown that was tailored according to her measurements.
She sat across Samuel at the table. The sight of the latter’s handsome face made her space out for a brief while. It was as if she was having a candlelit dinner with the man she loved at that moment.
Unfortunately, all of this was just a big, fat lie.
Tina started cutting her steak quietly. After noticing the camera’s flash being triggered, signaling that the picture-taking process was over, she put down her cutlery immediately “Can I leave now?” she asked bluntly.
“Leave?” Samuel frowned.
“Aren’t you putting on a show for Grandma? Now that the picture’s taken, I should be able to clock off now, right?” Tina asked.
Samuel’s expression crumbled immediately
“Do you seriously think this is just an act for Grandma?” he asked darkly
Tina couldn’t help but shrink away. “Isn’t that the case?”
Samuel let out a cold chuckle all of a sudden. It was true that this event was related to Madam Langford. After Tina left earlier in the afternoon, the butler suddenly reminded Samuel that it was a special day NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Today happened to be Tina’s birthday, a date that was shown on her identification card.
Under Madam Langford’s urging, Samuel made some last-minute arrangements and managed to prepare a surprise for Tina.
Frankly speaking, Samuel hated the entire thing. After thinking about how he had wronged Tina in the past, he decided to suck it up and make it up to her by arranging a birthday celebration for her.
But after that, things went awry.
Tina had been reluctant from the start. Not only did she refuse to get into the car, but now she was also ready to leave at a moment’s notice.
Fury took over Samuel’s senses. He no longer wanted to look at this woman.
He was afraid he might strangle her for real. “Get out,” he spat out venomously. Tina rose to her feet immediately. Then, she lifted her gown and started to run away However, she was still wearing high heels, so she accidentally twisted her ankle. “Ah!”
She started collapsing in Samuel’s direction Fear took over her. She mustn’t suffer from a fall right now!
In a moment of panic, Tina grasped onto Samuel’s form and dangled off him like an octopus. The latter couldn’t help but frown.
This woman…
The sight of her flailing in panic softened his heart once more.
With his arm closed around Tina’s waist firmly, Samuel couldn’t help but mock her with the most hurtful words. “What’s wrong, Tina? Weren’t you in a hurry to leave just now? Why are you so eager to fall into my arms? I definitely overestimated your endurance, Tina. You’ve only kept to yourself for a few days,
and yet you’re already itching to seduce another man!” “No!” Tina wanted to explain herself so badly. “I don’t usually wear high heels, so…” However, the sight of Samuel’s expression told her that no matter how much she explained, he would never change his opinion of her. As long as he viewed her as a cunning and manipulative woman, he would always think that she was carrying out some sort of vile
scheme no matter what she was doing. “That’s right. I do like seducing people, but I don’t have the guts to seduce you. You did verify your relationship with Miss Young in front of the entire city yesterday, after all. However, you’re having a candlelit dinner with me today. If the mass media found out about this, they’d definitely call me a home-wrecking vixen.”
Tina’s words were biting and cruel. The more she spoke, the darker Samuel’s expression became.
“You.”
“I know. You want me to get lost.”
Tina kicked off the high heels and left in a hurry.
But just when she was about to leave via the elevator, a waiter could be seen pushing a meal cart toward her. A birthday cake filled with candles was seen on the cart. Tina was surprised when she saw the cake. “A birthday? Whose birthday is it?”
