    Samantha only realized that something was not quite right after speaking. Just as she was thinking of something she could say to remedy it, she heard Timothy’s wonderful voice.


    He said to her, “Okay.”


    Samantha was startled at first and wondered if she had heard wrongly. She responded weakly, “Timothy, you… What did you say?”


    Timothy ced the still-burning match in front of her lips and said, “Blow.”


    Samantha blew out the me in a stupor.


    “I said…” Timothy’s thin lips opened slightly and he spoke each word with rity, “…your wish hase true.”


    After a pause, his lips curled up slightly and he lowered his voice. There was a trace of maism in his tone as his ck eyes stared at her deeply and he said, “I’ll be in your care from now on, sweetheart!”


    As those words floated slowly into her ears, Samantha’s vision became blurry and she felt as though she was still in a dream.


    What other exnation could there be for her to hear those kinds of words that she could only hear in her dreams?


    Samantha muttered to herself, “Am I dreaming?”


    Timothy did not know he was amused by her words or had been rendered speechless by her daftness, but he replied with a half-smile, “You’re only dreaming if you think you are.”


    Samantha was speechless. Seeing as Timothy was about to stand up and leave after saying those words, she became anxious and threw caution in the wind as she reached out to grab his hand.


    His fingers were slender and carried a slight warmth. The moment she touched him, her heartbeat started racing—it was practically going to jump out of her body.


    She could finally be sure that it was real…instead of just a dream.


    Afraid that he would disappear, she said hurriedly, “No, it’s not a dream. Timothy, you… You can’t go back on your word!”


    Timothy lowered his eyes and looked at her hands grasping his fingers.


    Samantha realized that her actions were too hasty and knew that Timothy was a bit of a clean freak. He did not like others to approach him or even touch him, so she smiled embarrassedly and retracted her hand.


    The next second, however, his palms had enveloped her hand.


    Samantha was dumbstruck. Her round eyes widened and she unconsciously held her breath.


    The young man stood by the hospital bed and gently held her hand. His palms were big and warm, allowing him to hold her hands firmly. He looked at her and said, “I won’t go back on my words, Samantha.”


    His tone was still as insipid as ever, but at that time, Samantha felt a sweetness in her heart after listening to it.


    He was the ‘baby husband’ she grabbed during her one-year-old catch—the very same boy whom she fell in love with at first sight when she was 14, and the man that she had been pursuing for four years and was about to give up on. At longst, her wish came true and she had be his girlfriend!


    Samantha could not help but grin from ear to ear and said sweetly, “Well then, boyfie. I’ll be in your care from now on!”


    News of their rtionship came as a surprise to everyone, who spected all kinds of stuff right from the outset.


    After all, there were plenty of celebrities who liked Timothy and some of them were rather desirable. No one would have imagined her to pull such a stunning feat and win Timothy’s heart.


    Even though she had saved Timothy’s life, there were still plenty of other ways he could show his gratitude to her. There was no need to agree to be in a rtionship with her, resulting in a flurry of discussions as to whether Timothy really did like her or whether she had put him under some kind of spell...


    Few people within the elitist circle were optimistic about their rtionship, but their feelings surprisingly got better and better. Timothy loved her very much and brought her along with him wherever he went. She had a really sweet and loving time with him in their rtionship, and Timothy even lent a helping hand when her grandfather passed away from a serious illness and various crises urred in the Larsson Group.


    During her 20th birthday, Timothy proposed to her right away, earning the envy of everyone within their circle. Their rtionship became a fairytale story of sorts.


    They really were like a prince and a princess in a fairytale.


    Of course, the story would have had the ssic happy ending if it stopped there.


    Unfortunately, there was still more to the story.


    Timothy publicly broke it off with her at their wedding andpletely severed all ties with her at the entrance to the Barker Group. He did so in such an indifferent manner that everything in the past seemed to be an illusion.


    From that day onward, Samantha would be stuck in a painful trance whenever that memory came back to her...


    Samantha could not help but cover her heart with her hand. The pain deep within it made it difficult for her to breathe.


    All of a sudden, she remembered the email she had received when she was abroad, saying that Timothy had broken it off with her for another reason. At that time, she stupidly hung on to a wishful trace of hope.


    Samantha blinked as tears streamed down uncontrobly.


    Timothy hadpletely left the past behind him, or more urately, he had left the past behind him ever since he broke off the marriage.


    On the contrary, Samantha remained in the past. She was unwilling, reluctant, and could not bring herself to do that, hence her continued sadness and the reason why she could not get away from it.


    At the end of her cries, her voice became hoarse and her vision became a blur. She wanted to stand up and leave because she did not want to stay in the ce of her humiliation, but she had no strength to do so at all.


    She gritted her teeth, propped her body halfway up, then reached out for the phone on the bedside table. She dialed Rochelle’s cell phone number.


    …


    Inside the room of the clubhouse.


    Zachary took out his cell phone, checked the time, then raised his eyebrows and said to Jonathan, “Timmy said he wasing over. It’s already thiste and we still haven’t seen h—”


    Before he could finish his sentence, the room door was suddenly kicked open with a loud thud.


    Zachary was just wondering which buffoon dared to kick the door to their VIP room. However, he saw Timothy striding in with a hostile aura and ended up getting so frightened that he shut his mouth immediately.


    “T-T-Timmy,” he called out tremblingly.


    Timothy seemed to have heard nothing and merely walked up to him. He sat in the booth, picked up the wine bottle, then tilted his head and drank straight out of the bottle.


    Zachary and Jonathan exchanged nces with each other.


    What exactly happened there? It had been a long time since they saw Timothy in such a terrifying state!


    Jonathan said, “Clear the area.”


    Zachary understood at once. He snapped his fingers and told everyone else in the room to leave.


    Silence befell the room.


    Zachary frowned and saw Timothy guzzling down the wine like water. He asked worriedly, “Why aren’t you stopping him, Jonny?”


    Jonathan looked askance at him and replied, “Be my guest if you’re not afraid of death.”


    Zachary trembled, “Are we just supposed to ignore it? Right now, Timmy looks the same as he did two years ago. If he keeps drinking it like that, he’ll get sick again, and then… It’ll be the death of him!”


    Jonathan frowned. He picked up a ss of wine, threw a pill in, then swirled it. The pill dissolved rapidly into the wine. He then started walking toward Timothy.


    Zachary was startled and immediately stopped him. “What are you doing, Jonny?”
