Chapter 42
“Ahh-”
It was another scream of pain. The boss was thrown away, and she fell heavily to the ground.
Seeing that, the two ladies holding Samantha did not dare to press her against the wall anymore. Instead, they hurriedly let go of Samantha and ran to their boss in fear.
Samantha lost the support, and as her knees went weak, her body slid down along the wall.
Suddenly, the man reached out and wrapped her slender waist around his arm. Soon, Samantha found herself in Timothy’s embrace.
The familiar breathing enveloped her. As her ear was coincidentally pressing against the man’s chest, she could
hear the man’s stable heartbeats.
She looked up again. It was indeed Timothy…
She was not hallucinating–it was really Timothy!
Timothy lowered his gaze, looking at her face to find any injuries. Then, the anger in his eyes subsided.
He hugged her and turned to look at the trembling ladies. “How dare you touch my woman!”
The three women could not tell who he was, but the imposing aura and dangerous tone made them shiver.
None of them dared to say anything.
Timothy peeped at Ronald and ordered him indifferently, “Since they like to fight, then let them switch pointers. Only one of them can leave this room today. Whoever wins the fight, she’ll get to leave!”
Timothy was giving them a taste of their own medicine! What a ruthless mean!
Then, Ronald nodded. “I’ll handle it, Mr. Barker.”
Timothy looked at Samantha again, and his gaze was profound with unreadable emotions. Next, he asked her, “Can
you walk?”
After the quick rest, Samantha’s strength returned slightly.
However, just as she was about to speak, Timothy carried her and walked out of the room.
Such a sudden action caused Samantha to widen her eyes in surprise, and she stared at Timothy in disbelief.
Samantha could not help but doubt whether she was dreaming again.
Nonetheless, she would not even dare to dream about such circumstances in the past two years.

Timothy carried her out of the detention room and directly walked toward the police station hall. It seemed as if he was going to carry her to the car that was parked outside.
There were many people outside, and they would surely recognize Timothy, If the public saw them or took photos of them, Samantha would surely once again become the topic of gossip in the entertainment news,
After all, her marriage with Timothy was just an act, and they would get a divorce in the future. Therefore, it was better to avoid trouble whenever possible, especially when she had heavy burdens herself.
Next, Samantha quickly said, “Timothy, I can walk on my own. Put me down.”
Timothy glanced at her, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction flashing through his eyes. Nevertheless, he did not say anything, nor did he put her down. Instead, he just continued walking.
Samantha was annoyed as she really could not understand him.
Realizing that they were approaching the crowd, and she could not escape from Timothy’s embrace, Samantha had no choice but to wrap her arms around his neck. Then, she hid her head inside Timothy’s embrace, not letting anyone see her face.
Her action made Timothy pause in his tracks. Looking at how she was shrinking in his arms, Timothy thought that Samantha was somewhat adorable.
Soon, a smile appeared on his face. Then, he tightened his grip and walked out the door in big steps!
Penelope and Violet had been shopping the whole afternoon, and Violet had bought many new clothes and bags for
Penelope.
As Penelope was in an excellent mood, she wanted to open a bottle of red wine that night and enjoy it with her
mother.
However, just as when they reached home, Violet received a call from the police station. They informed her that Samantha’s case was dropped, and it was all just a misunderstanding. Since she was not a thief, they let her go!
Violet was stunned, and she asked the person to repeat what he said.
When she heard that, Penelope’s heart skipped a bit, and she asked in confusion, “How is that possible? Who could have such a great connection to settle Samantha’s matter in such a short time?”
Violet was calmer than Penelope. Then, after pondering for a while, she asked the crucial question, “Who took her
away?”
The person replied, “I’m not sure who he is, but I heard that Samantha’s husband personally took her away!”
“Husband?” Penelope was so shocked that her voice became high–pitched. “Samantha is married? When? Who’s h
husband?”
This news raised Violet’s eyebrows. What an unexpected turn of events.

Knowing that she could not get any more helpful information, Violet hung up the call. When she saw how angry Penelope was, she shook her head. “Why are you making such a commotion? Look at you! How are you going to the madam of the Barker household!”
“Mommy, I’m just surprised!” Penelope gradually held back her emotions. Nevertheless, she still could not help but comment, “Samantha is really a b*tch. She has a husband but still flirts around. Was she hoping for Timmy to fall in love with a sl*t like her? I’m calling Timmy now to let him know about Samantha’s true colors!”
As she said that, Penelope went to take her phone.
However, Violet stopped her, and her tone was grave as she warned Penelope, “I’ve told you many times that we must plan ahead. How are you going to succeed if you always act so recklessly?”
Penelope noticed that Violet was angry, and she bit her lower lip aggrievedly, not arguing with her anymore.
Violet could not care less about Samantha’s marriage, but she must find out who her husband was.
Then, she grabbed her phone and made a call. “Find out who is Samantha’s husband as soon as possible.”
After about two hours, the phone rang.
Violet picked up the call and listened to the person’s reply, “Not long ago, Samantha married a wealthy man, and he seems to be really mysterious. Rumor has it that he’s disfigured due to an accident, has odd tempers, and can’t perform sexual acts. Hence, the reason is obvious.”
Violet hummed in reply and hung up the call. Soon, a smile appeared on her face.
Penelope was also gloating. “That b*tch, Samantha, is really something else. She always manages to exceed my expectations. For the sake of money, Samantha was willing to marry such a man. It seems that since her disabled husband can’t satisfy, so she can’t stand the loneliness and pester my Timmy!”
“Alright, that’s enough. Since we have something we can use against her, and she won’t be able to do anything about it anyway, why don’t we just let her go for the time being.”
Penelope was really impressed with Violet, so she nodded and agreed, “Mommy, I’ll listen to your words.”
In the villa’s bedroom,
As Samantha walked out of the bathroom after taking a bath, she coincidentally saw Timothy coming in, carrying the familiar medical kit in his hand.
She could not help but wonder if Timothy liked being a nurse.
The man sat on the sofa and said in his usual bossy tone, “Come here.”
“I don’t have new wounds. Actually, I didn’t suffer much today. Instead, they were the ones that were hurt.”
Samantha was telling the truth.

“Come here! Don’t make me repeat myself!” Timothy sounded impatient.
Hence, Samantha decided not to resist and obediently went to him and sat opposite him.
Timothy reached out and opened her robe..
