Chapter 352: Did You Think I’d Keep Him Around?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Getting down to business was exactly what Samantha had co for.

She looked into Timothy’s black eyes and spoke in an equally frigid voice, “Sure. Let’s talk.”

A little smirk appeared at the corner of his lips and he tossed a kraft paper bag to the empty space on the table before her. He raised his chin slightly and said bluntly, “Sign the divorce agreent.”

During the journey to the hotel, Samantha had a couple of guesses as to why he wanted to see her. There was nothing she could talk about with Timothy anymore, and the only thing that would prompt him into taking the initiative to find her was probably related to the divorce.

It turned out to be just as she predicted.

Samantha’s expression remained unchanged. She stretched out her hand, picked up the kraft paper bag, and opened it to take out the divorce agreent.

She casually flipped through a couple of pages and could not help sneering.

The divorce agreent was very different from that of three years ago.

When the first set of divorce papers was given to her three years ago, he gave at least a hundred million in alimony. The terms were then revised so she would also be given half of the shares.

The present divorce agreent would leave her empty-handed.

She would have nothing at all.

Although Samantha never wanted anything from Timothy whether it was shares or money, it was still difficult for her to contain the anger in her heart when she looked at the divorce agreent.

During the entire course of her marriage to him, Samantha had reflected on whether she had done anything wrong. The answer was a no, for she had tried her best to love him and be a good wife for him. Her love for Timothy was pure and genuine.

She did not use him or conspired against him, but did things properly and with a clear conscience.

She loved him purely with all her heart, so much so that she could be described as being very stupid and persistent.

On the other hand, he was the one who used her in the marriage, betrayed her feelings, and wanted her dead in the end. There were plenty of things he did wrong, so how could he be so confident in asking her to sign the divorce papers and requesting her to back off unconditionally?

She hated Harmony to the bone, but the hate she had for soone as insignificant as Harmony paled far in comparison to her hatred of him.

If not for so of the other concerns she had, she would most certainly have dragged him to hell with her.

Samantha picked up the divorce agreent and tore it up without blinking.

Timothy kept quiet and watched as she ripped the papers. There were hints of iciness in the depths of his eyes and he smiled while speaking in a chilly voice, “What’s wrong? Still coveting my shares?”

He looked at her condescendingly and the look in his eyes seed to ask her ‘What right do you have?’

“Your shares?” Samantha questioned in amusent. “It’s worthless to .”

During the past three years, the Barker Group’s market value has risen to an astonishing level and even half of those shares carried an unimaginable wealth.

Even those who were wealthy would yearn for them, let alone ordinary individuals.

Timothy scoffed at Samantha’s words.

How could she treat them with such disdain when she was the one who asked for shares three years ago?

All that pretending was simply pointless.

Samantha’s expression remained unwavering despite sensing the contempt from Timothy’s aloof self-righteousness.

She could not care less about what Timothy thought of her anymore and she was not going to try and explain anything to save his opinion of her.

Timothy’s opinion of her would not affect her at all.

She ca for a very clear purpose and that was to get her child back!

Samantha could not be bothered to talk nonsense with him. She glanced up at him and said, “I only have one condition for this divorce!”

“Give back my child and promise that you will not hurt him or disturb us in the future! Then I’ll sign it. From that point onward, you and I will never cross paths again.”

Timothy laughed as if he had heard a funny joke. He locked his sharp eyes on her and spoke in a cruel yet slightly mocking tone, “Do you think I’d keep the b*stard you conceived through cheating in your marriage?”

‘Cheating in your marriage...’

‘B*stard…’

Samantha clenched her hand unconsciously.

It seed that the misunderstanding stemd from Timothy’s thorough investigation of her.

When she gave birth back in Emsteldt, she was not a registered citizen there and the child could not be registered under her na. Therefore, the baby ended up being registered under Alan’s na.

Moreover, she was more careful at that ti and the information she provided regarding her age was several years younger than her actual age. She did that to prevent anyone from knowing that it was Timothy’s child.

From Matthew’s registration information, it was quite evident that he was Alan’s child.

Although she did not want Timothy to know the truth, the things he told her made her feel extrely cold and she felt unbearably distressed to hear them.

She dodged the proverbial bullet when she did not tell Matthew who his biological father was.

It would be a very sad day for him indeed.

Samantha laughed in anger and retorted, “You haven’t been sitting on your thumbs for the past three years either, you cleaned up your true love’s reputation and even held a lavish wedding for her. You’re no better than if it cos to cheating while married. You’re a pot that calls the kettle black.”

Timothy stopped swirling the wine glass.

He laughed again and said, “My mistake.”

Samantha did not respond and waited for his next sentence.

Sure enough, Timothy added nonchalantly, “I should have given another order three years ago.”

His smile was very charming, but the words that ca out of his mouth were extrely cold-blooded. “I should have told them to cut off your tongue.”

“You missed that train, unfortunately,” Samantha was still unafraid.

“Wonderful, very wonderful.”

Timothy even raised his hands and clapped twice. “Since you refuse to divorce, then...”

He paused for half a beat before continuing, “…you should keep company tonight on what was supposed to be my wedding night…”

“…Darling.”

As soon as he said that, the man stood up and took slow steps toward Samantha.

Samantha’s hand unconsciously clenched the back of her chair as she looked at Timothy’s gloomy eyes. For that brief mont, she was unable to determine whether he was telling the truth or whether he was deliberately trying to scare her.

She did not think that the current Timothy had any sexual interest in her!

Giving in to her fears was not an option, as doing so would only reveal her limits to him. Should that happen, she would not be able to take Matthew back from Timothy’s hands again.

Samantha surreptitiously took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and suppressed her urge to run away. She raised her head and looked at Timothy, who had already walked up to her.

A dangerous oppressiveness ca crashing toward her soon after.

Samantha still retained that cold and indifferent expression and pretended to take a jibe at him, “Is there anything wrong with having an affair while married and giving birth to another man’s child? Are you unsatisfied? That’s mighty casual of you, don’t you think? Or...could it be that your one true love, Harmony, can’t satisfy you?”

Although Samantha was technically badmouthing herself with those remarks, it was worth it if she could repel him and protect herself.
