Chapter 201: He Lied
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Aunt Julia nodded and continued, “After Harmony returned, she had a considerable amount of interaction with Mrs. Barker and even…t Mr. Barker in private.”
Even though the old lady had already suspected just as much, she still felt a headache coming on when she heard it from Aunt Julia.
“I was careless. She had been so quiet during her years abroad that I didn’t pay attention to her at all. I didn’t expect her to be brave enough to co back and show up so brazenly before Tim and Sammy.”
Old Madam Barker couldn’t help snorting, “She really has no idea how to read the room. I let her leave the country all those years ago and even gave her a prosperous life, but those evil intentions of hers still remained. Seems like I underestimated her.”
‘Let her leave the country...’
Samantha’s black pupils contracted slightly as her breathing got heavier.
The main reason for Harmony’s sudden departure to another country turned out to be none other than Old Madam Barker’s decision...
Judging from Old Madam Barker’s words, Harmony had most likely been told to leave the country, and in exchange for a prosperous life there, was neither allowed to return nor approach Timothy again.
However, Harmony had returned all by herself and t Timothy in private.
Old Madam Barker would not have done what she did back then for no apparent reason, not unless Old Madam Barker was not fond of Harmony. Timothy and Harmony had probably wanted to get together after growing up as childhood sweethearts and developing feelings toward each other, only for the old lady to play the role of a villain and destroy their budding relationship.
Furthermore, Harmony went to Barrkjaer Island before returning to the country, so that guess might end up ringing true—Timothy and Harmony had probably t in Barrkjaer Island and rekindled their old relationship, which was why Harmony returned and was so desperate to reunite with Timothy after that!
Samantha bit her lips tightly as her face turned pale.
She really did not want to let her mind wander in that direction, but the truth seed to be leading her down that very path.
“Is soone outside?”
Samantha heard Aunt Julia’s voice.
Startled, she snapped to her senses and imdiately turned around to make herself scarce. The last thing she wanted was for Old Madam Barker and Aunt Julia to know that she had heard their conversation.
Aunt Julia walked to the door and glanced outside. There was no one out there, so she turned around and headed back into the room.
Samantha did not want them to know that she had heard everything and decided not to go back to the old lady’s room. Her feet felt sowhat light as she walked up the stairs and returned to the bedroom.
She sat on the bed and hugged her knees as her mind went into disarray.
Bits and pieces of mories appeared in her mind, many of which were unsettling even though she had dismissed them earlier as though they were nothing to make a fuss about.
Samantha shook her head all of a sudden.
Overthinking was not sothing she ought to be doing. Dwelling on it continuously would only make her denounce Timothy for those accusations and that would be very unfair to him.
In any case, she wanted to hear what he had to say.
He was the one person she should place her trust in.
Samantha picked up her phone, clicked on WeTalk, and sent another ssage to Timothy: [Where are you?]
A few seconds later, she received a voice ssage, “Five minutes out.”
Samantha did not reply to the ssage. Since there were another five minutes before he arrived, she decided to just do other things to pass the ti.
She clicked and opened her WeTalk Monts but was surprised to see that the first one was from Harmony. It had been uploaded five minutes ago.
It was a photo showing Harmony’s injured hand with so ointnt beside it. The caption wrote: [I’m so glad you showed concern for .
