432 Miscalculation
Timothy paused in his footsteps and looked sideways at him.
Donald spoke in as clear a tone as possible, “You think your plan is perfect, don’t you? It’s a pity...that you miscalculated!”
“Your wife and children have died in the fire. What’s the use of you surviving? What do you have after winning everything back? You’ll still end up like me-alone!”
Donald laughed louder and louder after saying that.
Timothy frowned and ignored Donald as he strode off.
He walked out of the room and took out his mobile phone to make a call.
The call was answered quickly and Theodore’s voice came. “Tim.”
Timothy went straight to the point and said, “I want to see Sammy and the child!”
Theodore was silent.
Timothy’s heart sank. “So Donald was telling the truth when he said that they died in the ????fire?”
“...I’m sorry.” Theodore’s voice became extremely solemn. “I got there a step late.”
Under Timothy’s plan, once the explosion happened and Donald’s eyes and ears were deceived, Timothy’s men would divide into two groups to rescue Timothy and Samantha, as well as Matthew, respectively.
The person who rescued Timothy had been lying underwater in advance, pulling Timothy to a safe area as quickly as possible and then creating an explosion.
After the explosion was over, the speedboat was supposed to rescue Samantha and Matthew.
When they arrived, they found no traces of Samantha and Matthew. Despite commencing a search-and-rescue in nearby waters, they still could not find them.
Theodore was still puzzled over how they disappeared into thin air, but he later realized that Donald was too distrustful a person and would give everything to ensure that neither mother-and-child would survive.
Before the search-and-rescue team came, Donald’s men had already pushed Samantha and Matthew into the sea.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” Timothy was practically speaking while gnashing his teeth!
“The plan has already progressed to this point and I couldn’t let anything affect you. You stand to lose everything if Donald recovers. I could only choose to hide it from you first.”
Theodore sighed, “I think Sammy would think so too.”
“What do you know!” The glow at the bottom of Timothy’s eyes dimmed instantly. “What do you know!”
His voice went from angry to hoarse.
His sole determination up until then was never for the sake of securing victory against Donald. What was the point in defeating Donald but losing Samantha and Matthew?
“Continue the search. I don’t believe Donald pushed them into the sea. If he did, he wouldn’t have said it on purpose.”
Timothy held on to his last remaining ray of hope. “I want to see them, whether they’re alive or dead.”
Theodore answered, “Okay. Take it easy. I’ll find a way to ask Barry here.”
Timothy hung up the phone and closed his eyes.
‘Sammy, Matt... I’ll definitely find you. Just wait for me!’
...
A month later, Samantha woke up with her mind having turned completely blank. She looked around blankly and tried to think of something, but there was a stinging sensation in her head as soon as she exerted a little bit of brainpower. The pain was so great that her facial features wrinkled up and she let out a slightly muffled groan.
The door to the room was pushed open and Samantha heard footsteps approaching the bed.
A surprised female voice was heard saying, “Ah, Miss, you’re awake?”
Samantha opened her eyelids slowly and looked over.
It was a young girl with a round face who was looking at her with unbridled joy. She continued to say excitedly, “I, I’m going to let Madam know! She’ll be very happy!”
The girl then ran out as soon as she said that.
Samantha opened her mouth to call the girl but could only watch as she left because her voice was too soft and she could not shout.
However, what did the girl mean when she said ‘Miss’ and ‘Madam’?
