Chapter 82
Chapter 82 Cindy quickly hung up, and then sent Tina an address. Tina sighed in defeat. Despite this, she still decided to meet Cindy: ‘I need to make everything clear to Cindy! She probably misunderstood the whole situation.’ Later that evening, Tina followed the address and arrived at a prestigious hotel. Before she could enter, the security officer blocked her way and snarled, “I’m sorry, Miss, but you can’t enter the premises.” Judging from Tina’s crummy attire, the clothes she was wearing weren’t even worth 20 bucks. Since the hotel could charge up to millions per night, Tina simply didn’t look like she was a legitimate customer. Tina explained, “I’m here to meet someone. Is Cindy Young here?”
“Miss Young?” The security guard scoffed at Tina. “What are you trying to play at? She isn’t someone you can meet just because you want to! Leave now, or I’ll drag you out of her!” The security guard shoved Tina away, so roughly she almost fell to the ground.
Right at this moment, a car stopped in front of the hotel. In the backseat, Cindy had a look of deep satisfaction when she saw Tina being treated like vermin in public. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
In fact, Cindy made Tina come here on purpose just so she could enjoy the sight of Tina getting insulted and harassed by the hotel staff.
This is what happens to anyone who dares to seduce Samuel. Just look at her! She’s so pathetic! Cindy thought gleefully, amused. Noticing that Tina was about to be dragged away, Cindy got off the car slowly just at the right time.
“This is a misunderstanding! Miss Lynd is here to find me. Please let her go!” Everyone in Freesia was aware that Cindy was the famous Samuel Langford’s partner. When the guards heard Cindy’s command, they let go of Tina and said respectfully, “Yes, Miss Young.” Cindy led the way, and entered the hotel with Tina in tow. She then took a seat just beside the windows.
“I’m sorry about that. I didn’t expect something like that to happen at all,” Cindy said pretentiously, pretending to be a magnanimous person. Tina quickly waved her hand and said, “It’s fine, I understand.” Before Tina could finish speaking, Cindy opened her handbag and took out a check. “The reason I called you here today is because of this.”
“What?” Tina was stunned.
“Didn’t you sign a contract with Samuel in the past? When you called before, I remembered that you didn’t receive the money even after the contract ended. That’s why…”
Tina refused to take the check and pushed it in Cindy’s direction resolutely.
“It was true that I called Samuel to ask for money. Now that my problem’s solved, I can’t possibly accept this!”
Cindy heaved out a heavy sigh. “That’s not it. You should follow what’s written in the contract. Legally, the money is the compensation incurred after you did your part. What’s more, I’ll feel more at ease if you agree to take the money.”
Tina considered Cindy’s offer. She was broke to the point that until now, she still couldn’t pay back her debts to John.
If she accepted the money, she could clear her debts and reassure Cindy. That way, she could kill two birds with one stone!
“Alright, I’ll take it.”
Tina reached out for the check.
Right at this moment, a cold voice sounded right from behind her. “Tina Lynd.”
When Tina heard the familiar voice, she jolted.

Looking up in horror, she saw Samuel walking towards her. He gazed upon her like how a predator would to a prey, eyes filled with menace. Tina looked at the man before her, dazed. She didn’t expect Samuel to be here!
