Chapter 0116
Although what Linda did was a bit risky and came at a high cost, it finally made Kendrick give up on that woman.
Linda was so happy that she didn’t notice someone approaching until Jude’s voice
startled her.
“Ms. Linda, what are you doing here? Do you want to go inside?” Jude politely asked, holding a new tablet in his hands
“No…” Linda was caught off guard and quickly shook her head, patting her chest as
she left.
Fortunately, she only thought about it and didn’t say it out loud, or else Jude would
have exposed her plan.
As Linda left, Jude looked meaningfully in her direction and then knocked on the
door.
His heart was in knots when he saw Kendrick’s furious expression.
“Mr. Ford, there’s an issue with the photo from just now,” Jude said.
“What did you just say?” Kendrick’s eyes were locked on Jude like an eagle locking
onto its prey.
Although Jude knew Kendrick would be angry, it was better for him to be angry now.
than later for not investigating the truth.
He quickly repeated, “There’s a problem with the photo from just now. I’ve
confirmed it. The photo has been manipulated.”
After speaking, he brought the tablet to Kendrick, showing two pictures. One was
the original, and the other had the faces of Samantha and Conrad superimposed.
Kendrick hurled the tablet toward Jude, narrowly missing his face.
“Next time you see a photo like this, confirm its authenticity before showing me!” Kendrick said, his gaze chilling.

Jude was terrified and didn’t dare to move. He kept his head lowered.
Kendrick slammed the table
Someone actually had the audacity to toy with him like this.
He remembered Samantha’s pale face again and stood up quickly. He pushed Jude
aside and walked out.
Samantha made a call, instructing the hotel staff to prepare a new outfit. After
changing, she was ready to leave.
Her phone rang, and Conrad’s name flashed on the screen.
Her originally cold eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness. Without a doubt,
Kendrick’s abnormal behavior must be related to Conrad.
Samantha parted her thin l*ps slightly and said, ‘Mr. Hayes.”
Conrad smiled faintly on the other end of the line and said, “I was a bit worried
before, but now, listening to your voice, I think you should be fine.”
Listening to Conrad casually guessing that she was fine. Samantha couldn’t help but
dislike him even more..
“I’m fine? That’s easy for you to say,” Samantha snorted. “Why not try to anger
Kendrick and show up before him?”
Samantha has no good feelings for Conrad now. If it weren’t for the two still having to cooperate, she would probably have refuted him mercilessly
“Ms Meadows, are you angry? Please don’t be. You should know that despite the grievances you’re suffering now, once your name is cleared and Linda is exposed, it will cause a drastic change in Kendrick’s behavior
The more you suffer, the more he cares about you and detests Linda. Isn’t that what
you
want?” Conrad continued to appease her indifferently
Samantha was not Linda, and she was not so easily fooled.

“Oh? Then, maybe next time, you can discuss it with me so I can be prepared.”
“Prepared? I remember I clearly sent you a text message.” Conrad continued to play.
dumb on the other end.
It successfully angered Samantha.
“A text message? After you sent me that text message, Kendrick appeared beside me within a minute. You didn’t even mention why he was so angry with me.
“If this is your idea of working together, I’m sorry, I might not be suitable to be your partner.”
“Okay, okay. That is my fault. Don’t be angry. I will definitely discuss things with you.
in advance next time.
“But I think since you have to play the role of being wrongly accused, it’s better to make you look like you really don’t know anything.”
Samantha was speechless.
In the end, she hung up, unwilling to engage in further conversation with someone
like Conrad.
She shook her head to clear her thoughts and decided not to dwell on the past. It would only drag her down into the abyss of hatred. She needed to move forward.
At this hour, there was no need to return to the office. She could go straight home.
Samantha kept a positive mood so Nathan wouldn’t see her in this state. She forced a faint smile and took a deep breath to dispel the lingering darkness in her heart.
Just as she turned the door handle, ready to leave, she coincidentally met Kendrick’s gaze. He was walking toward her.
Samantha’s heart dropped to her stomach. She wondered if Kendrick had overheard
her conversation with Conrad.
She stood there, expressionless, staring at Kendrick.
Kendrick locked eyes with Samantha and observed her slightly pale face and the faint bruises on her forehead. He felt a pang in his heart.

Where are you going now?” Although Kendrick wanted to apologize, his words still
sounded like an interrogation.
In a five star hotel like this, outsiders couldn’t hear what was happening inside. Otherwise, the hotel would go bankrupt.
