Chapter 382: An Immediate Slap in The Face

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Harmony’s feelings of upset were all cleared up at once.

A long and prominent scar was present on Samantha’s stomach like a centipede crawling all over it.

Harmony smiled.

Ian had told her that Samantha was unwell when delivering the baby and had to go through a C-section due to the high risks of giving birth.

Therefore, it did not matter how perfect the other parts of her body were because anyone who saw the ugly scar on her stomach would feel sickened!

She wished that Samantha had died in the delivery room during childbirth.

Then again, the child’s existence would be a very powerful weapon to be used against her!

Harmony curled her lips happily. She got up from the hot spring pool and put on a towel before walking out.

After coming out of the spa, Rochelle wanted to have a meal with Samantha but had to leave because Jonathan called her.

Samantha did not want to eat out all by herself so she took a taxi back to the apartment and whipped up some ramen.

Her phone rang just as she was eating.

Samantha picked up the phone and looked at it. It happened to be a call from Alan so she picked it up right away. “Dr. Sherwood.”

Alan’s warm voice came from over there, “Have you recovered?”

“I have. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of myself and I won’t let anything happen to my body again,” Samantha repeatedly assured.

Alan was amused. “That’s good. Make sure to keep warm. It’s cold in Capital City now.”

“You too. It’s also snowing in Emsteldt right now...”

“Yeah, Matt likes it a lot when it’s snowing. I promised him that I’d take him skiing this year...” Alan could not help but feel melancholic. “It’s unfortunate that I still haven’t been able to find out where he is. I don’t know if he’s doing well.”

Samantha’s nose immediately felt tingly when she heard that.

Had it not been for all those rotten things that happened, she should have been with Matthew, watching the snow in Emsteldt together with him. He would have been so happy and excited.

He spoke again in a slightly hoarse voice, “Matt is still young. I don’t think they’ll go hard on him as long as he’s still alive.”

Alan sighed. “Yeah. He’s such a good boy. How could they bring themselves to be harsh to him? We’ll definitely save him.”

“Yeah. We will.” Samantha spoke confidently!

“By the way.” Alan’s voice became a little more serious, “I did what you told me to do two days ago.”

Samantha smiled. “I see. Tha—”

“What?” Alan sounded dissatisfied.

Samantha stopped just in time and rephrased herself. “You’re very kind, Dr. Sherwood.”

Alan was helplessly speechless. Was there any difference between ‘thank you’ and ‘you’re very kind’?

They all fell under the umbrella of being a nice guy...

Nevertheless, he was well aware that she was not prepared to put her thoughts on her emotions until after she found Matthew...and made it up to Timothy.

He had already been waiting for a long time and it did not make a difference if he had to wait even longer.

“Be careful over there,” Alan warned again.

If he had not been chasing Matthew’s trail, he would have really wanted to stay by her side and protect her so she does not get hurt.

Samantha smiled warmly. “I will. You too. Remember to take care of your health. Don’t just focus on work all the time and end up getting gastric pains because you skipped your meals.”

Alan laughed genuinely that time.

He was happy enough whenever she showed the littlest of concern for him.

Samantha ended the call after chatting a bit more.

She rested her chin in her hands and felt slightly distressed.

Alan had made no secret of his affection for her since he confessed to her, but she did not seem to...feel anything for him.

Did she really lose the ability to love someone or was it…because he was not the right person?

She became increasingly worried as she thought about it and shook her head vigorously as she tried to stop thinking about it.

It was not the time to be thinking about that! She had to concentrate on dealing with Timothy’s second personality!

Samantha thought of what Alan had said earlier and narrowed her eyes.

Inside the president’s office of the Barker Foundation, Harmony had just returned when she saw an extremely delicate invitation on her desk.

She picked it up and saw that it was an invitation for the Barker Group’s annual dinner.

The dinner would be held in another week and that year’s annual dinner was slated to be an extremely high-profile event.

As far as she knew, the guests who were invited were all heavyweights in the business world, and even the EIA Group’s Michael Holt would be attending.

More important than anything else, ‘that man’ would be there too!

During the past three years, she was always Timothy’s plus one whenever he needed a female companion for a banquet.

The annual dinner would certainly be no exception.

She imagined holding Timothy’s hand, standing by his side, and basking in everyone’s gazes while facing so many business heavyweights.

The mere thought made her heart flutter and she could not stop smiling.

Although she had chased Samantha away three years ago and had been by Timothy’s side the entire time, it seemed that ‘he’ still did not recognize her ability 100%.

As long as Timothy attended the dinner with her, then ‘he’ would finally recognize her abilities and allow her to secure someone with a strong backing!

She had to attend that grand event in full gear so the entire crowd would be overwhelmed by her beauty!

Harmony knew that the most eye-catching couple’s outfit seen at the recent Parlez Fashion Show had arrived in Capital City. It was one of a kind and happened to come in a set specifically for couples. If she and Timothy wore it, the audience would almost certainly be in awe.

She quickly grabbed her car keys and cell phone before leaving the office.

Harmony raced all the way and drove directly to a private haute couture store that kept that set of clothes.

She was a VVIP member there and the salesperson welcomed her in. “Hello, Ms. Johnson.”

Harmony nodded lightly and went straight to the subject. “I’m here today because I want that couple’s outfit, both the man’s and the woman’s too. Take my measurements right now and have it tailored for me before my annual dinner next week.”

Knowing that Harmony was wealthy and had lots of money, the salesperson beamed with a smile and said, “Sure, Ms. Johnson. Please come this way and I’ll take your measurements.”

The salesperson led Harmony into the dressing room and recorded the measurements respectfully. “Bust, seventy; waist, sixty-two; hip, eighty-two...”

Harmony’s face soured when she heard the measurements.

She then heard another salesperson welcoming a guest in. “Mr. Crawford, you’re here.”

‘Mr. Crawford?’

The only ‘Mr. Crawford’ that would make the salesperson so happy was Timothy’s assistant.

What was Ronald doing there?

Then she heard the salesperson outside say, “Does Mr. Barker want some custom-made clothes? Ohh… He wants that couples set from the Parlez Fashion Show.”

The salesperson measuring Harmony immediately complimented her. “Mr. Barker loves you so much that he told his assistant to come and order the dress for you.”

Those words touched Harmony’s heart.

Timothy’s mind was in sync with hers and it was all but certain that he hoped for her to present herself beautifully at the time and boost his reputation!

The next second, Ronald said, “The lady’s measurements are eighty-six, sixty, and eighty-eight.”

The smile on Harmony’s face froze instantly.

Even the salesperson tending to her felt embarrassed. Those were not Harmony’s measurements, which meant that she had rushed to order a dress to attend an event that Timothy did not intend to bring her to...

Harmony face soured, for she only needed one glance at the salesperson’s face to see what the latter was thinking. “Get out!”

After the salesperson went out, Harmony was so angry that flipped over the tea and cakes on the coffee table.

If her guess was correct, those measurements were likely Samantha’s!

Did Timothy intend for Samantha to attend as his plus one? Was it because Samantha remained the official Mrs. Barker while Harmony had nothing?

Harmony ought to have been Mrs. Barker already! She should have been basking in the glory and attended the dinner with her arm around his!

She was breathing very heavily.

Not long later, a dense chill immediately appeared in her eyes as she thought of something.

It was perfect if Samantha attended the party as Mrs. Barker.

Harmony had been wondering how to deliver a fatal blow to Samantha!

The dinner might make for the perfect occasion!

Harmony took out her cell phone and made a call. As soon as the other side answered, she instructed immediately, “I need you to do something....”
