  Samantha’s heart tensed up. She pulled herself up from the ground with the help of the door handle and was about to open the door to escape.

  She did not want to lose her life there.

  However, she saw that Timothy had only taken two steps. His expression became more and more painful and blue veins appeared on his forehead one after another. Thin sweat was starting to ooze out of his forehead too.

  Samantha’s movements unconsciously slowed down when she said that.

  She licked her lips slightly and ventured to ask, “Timothy, what…… What’s happening to you?”


  Nothing about him seemed right!

  Her words caught Timothy’s attention again, and his black pupils—which seemed to be able to swallow everything in its way—glanced at her again. He opened his lips and said in an extremely cold voice, “Get out!”


  Although Samantha was somewhat surprised and equally as curious about Timothy’s condition, he was very dangerous at that moment and she still remembered almost being choked to death earlier.

  She hesitated for a moment but decided it was best to save her skin first. With that thought in mind, she twisted the doorknob and dashed out of the office.

  The office door was slammed shut from the inside the moment she walked out, and a gust of wind that carried a murderous aura blew against her back.

  Samantha’s heart began beating wildly and she needed some time to calm herself down.

  Ronald happened to see the scene when he came out with some freshly brewed coffee and gasped slightly, especially when he saw Samantha’s pale face and the obvious red marks on her fair neck.

  Did all of that happen just as he went to make a cup of coffee?

  Did Timothy do something to Samantha?

  Ronald put down his coffee at once and went up concernedly as he said, “Ms. Larsson, are you…alright?”


  That voice slowly made Samantha regain her composure. She rolled her stiff eyes to look at Ronald and needed about half a minute before she finally came back to her senses.

  She unconsciously squeezed out a smile and replied softly, “I… I’m fine.”


  Even though she answered that way, Ronald could tell that she did not look well and sighed to himself before saying, “Ms. Larsson, your neck…… I have some ointment with me,?if you don’t mind, I can help you deal with it?”


  The sight of it was truly shocking.

  He could imagine just how ruthless Timothy had been toward Samantha.

  Samantha was always the kind who hated troubling others. She opened her mouth and wanted to refuse, but just as she was about to refuse his offer, she thought of something and changed her initial sentence. “Thank you for the trouble.”


  “It’s no biggie. Don’t worry about it.” Ronald waved his hand. “In that case, Ms. Larsson, let’s go to the lounge.”


  “Okay.”


  Ronald then led Samantha to the lounge. After she sat on the sofa, he came over with his first-aid kit and pulled a small stool to sit opposite her.

  He took out a cotton swab, dipped it in some ointment, and carefully applied it on Samantha’s neck.

  Samantha looked at him, and after seeing that he was wholly focused on applying the ointment on her, she asked casually, “Ronald…… has Timothy been…feeling unwell recently?”


  “Feeling unwell?” Ronald replied subconsciously. “Not really, no. What’s wrong?”


  Samantha pursed her lips lightly. “When I was chatting with him, he seemed to have a headache and was a little irritable, so I wondered if it was because of any physical discomfort.”


  Ronald thought for a while and answered, “Is that so? I didn’t notice that and Mr. Barker didn’t mention anything either. But about the headache, it’s something that happens sometimes with him, especially when he’s particularly busy at work or finding it really stressful. It’s probably nothing serious, since it’s a common occurrence among urbanites like us.”


  Samantha only agreed to let Ronald help her with the ointment because she wanted to make small talk and get information.

  After all, Ronald had been following Timothy closely for the past three years and was one of those who was always around him. Samantha thought that he would have seen something.

  For the moment at least, it seemed that Timothy had been concealing it so well that not even Ronald had noticed anything.

  In fact, she would not have noticed anything either if he had not suddenly lost control that day.

  Things seemed much trickier than she had imagined.

  Seeing Samantha’s thoughtful look, Ronald strayed off their original conversation and could not help but sigh, “I didn’t expect you to care so much about Mr. Barker, even until now! It’s just a shame that……he’s an arse!”


  Ronald whispered those last three words.

  Although Timothy was a good superior, Ronald—as a man—did not support him in his emotional relationships!

  Samantha smiled.

  Timothy had betrayed her time and time again and there were times when she started wondering if she was really the bad person.

  Then again, the people around Timothy—such as Old Madam Barker, Aunt Julia, and Ronald—were all very kind to her and cared deeply about her. That was evidence enough that she had not failed that terribly as a person and was quite likable.

  She regained a considerable amount of self-confidence.

  Samantha felt annoyed that she was yet to get any clues, so her eyes rolled around in her sockets and she asked again, “Ronald, you’ve always been around Timothy for the past three years. Did he ever undergo any…obvious changes?”


  Ronald had always done his best to answer Samantha’s questions since she was the former Mrs. Barker whom he had lots of admiration for.

  He gave her question some thought and answered seriously, “In terms of change, there is one that’s particularly obvious.”


  “Mr. Barker became……very ruthless and he’s particularly decisive when it comes to work stuff. He used to show some kindness, but that had all disappeared!”


  “I remember there was a project two years ago, the Barker Group was in talks for a merger with a certain company, but it was treated more like an annexation. The company’s boss committed suicide in front of Mr. Barker to try and force him into making concessions, but Mr. Barker didn’t even bat an eye. He was so cruel. Back then I looked at him and felt that I almost didn’t know this man anymore.”


  Ronald could not help but shiver when he mentioned that.

  “I see……” Samantha’s eyes narrowed slightly.

  Once Ronald finished applying the ointment, she got up and said goodbye.

  Her cell phone rang just as she walked out of the Barker Group. Upon seeing that it was Old Madam Barker calling, she picked it up and greeted, “Grandma.”


  Old Madam Barker’s weak voice came. “I heard that Timothy talked to you in private. Did he make things hard for you?”


  Samantha touched her neck subconsciously and replied, “No. We succeeded. Timothy won’t mention the divorce to me for the time being.”


  “Really?” Old Madam Barker had some doubts. “Was he that easy to persuade?”


  They had mounted a strong attack on him, after all.

  Samantha said in a very determined tone. “Yes, Grandma. I’m going back to the hospital now, so I’m sure you can rest assured now, right?”


  Old Madam Barker was relieved to hear that. “That’s good then. Alright, we’ll talk when you come.”


  “Okay.”


  After ending the call, Samantha stood on the spot for a few seconds and hailed a cab, but instead of going to the hospital, she told the driver to go somewhere else.
