Chapter 259: Can You Snap Out of It?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“While for you? You were moved bit by bit by Tim’s actions…”

Harmony’s smile disappeared when she said that. “To be honest, it’s frustrating as a woman to watch the man you love be with another woman every single day. I feel uncomfortable even though it’s all a sham. Tim, however, is thinking about our future, so all I can do is endure it.”

“Even so, Tim couldn’t bear to see me suffer. He knows I’m sad, so he thought of other ways to cheer me up.”

Harmony gently rested her hand on her cheek and smiled sweetly.

“You want evidence, right? I can show you. Remember when we competed with each other the very first time and I was deprived of first place in the anchor competition? I didn’t have the opportunity to enter Lychee TV at first, but Tim knew I wanted to join and understood that it was my dream, so he helped me to be qualified for employment. Isn’t that obvious enough?”

Samantha still did not answer her.

Harmony grinned. “Do you need any physical evidence?”

She got up, walked to the coat rack, and took down a bag before walking back.

She put the bag on the coffee table and pushed it before Samantha. “See for yourself.”

Samantha looked at the big bag.

Although she had no idea what was in it, she would be lying if she said that her heart was not feeling tempestuous at that moment.

Regardless of how calm, composed, and rational she was, the fact remained that she was uneasy when hearing Harmony’s words.

The reason she felt that way was because Harmony’s words matched the timeline exactly.

When Timothy first conspired against Samantha to marry her, he did so because he misunderstood her, hated her, and married to get revenge on her.

Their relationship was terrible after that, with the two of them hurting each other and viewing each other with disdain.

Had it not been for Old Madam Barker’s mediation, they might have divorced a long time ago and completely forgotten about each other.

Their relationship then changed because she was forced to fight against her parents’ revolting behavior. She had no choice but to sever her relationship with her parents in public.

During the press conference she held, Timothy stood by her for the first time and disclosed their marriage publicly. She, together with him, resolutely severed ties with her shameless parents.

She began to feel grateful and no longer clashed with him like before, while Timothy’s cold attitude towards her had changed as well.

At that time, she was curious why Timothy would change all of a sudden.

She was always under the impression that he did so because of Old Madam Barker.

In hindsight, Timothy was clearly on a business trip at that time and happened to come back just in time for her press conference, like a hero swooping in to save the damsel in distress.

Her calls to him before the press conference had gone unanswered, and that was when she was in a state of crisis.

On further analysis, that particular point in time tallied with Timothy’s tri-monthly disappearance to spend a whole 24 hours with Harmony.

That could be the reason he did not answer his phone at the time.

After being with Harmony, he could have changed his attitude towards Samantha after deciding to use her as a vessel to bear an heir. Did all of his actions after that form a stepping stone to make her willingly give birth to his child?

She did not want to cast such aspersions on him because she could not bring herself to admit that Timothy was merely faking it when he doted on her with such warmth during that period.

Unfortunately, she was being crushed bit by bit by Harmony’s evidence.

Samantha clenched her hands slightly and remained still for some time.

Harmony continued to stare at Samantha and chuckled after seeing her every reaction. “Weren’t you so sure that I was lying? What’s wrong? Are you scared now that all the evidence you want is right in front of you?”

Samantha looked up and spoke indifferently, more so than before. “Why are you so anxious? I’m not even half as anxious as you.”

Harmony was choked and speechless.

That truly was the first time she had ever seen a woman with such resolution. Any ordinary person would have been convinced a long time ago.

She wondered just what kind of a person Samantha was and why was it so difficult to gain the upper hand against the latter even after what had happened.

It was frustrating!

Samantha bit down hard on her lower lip and restrained her emotions.

She could delay as much as she wanted, but she could not avoid her resounding defeat. Getting a little extra time was not going to change anything.

Harmony simply acted as if she charitably gave her that bit of extra time!

Samantha took out a thermos cup from her bag, unscrewed the lid slowly, and drank some of the wolfberry water inside. After drinking, she closed the lid and put it back in the bag.

Those unhurried movements made Harmony grit her teeth once more.

Samantha did not even look at Harmony at all. Once she was mentally prepared, she stretched out her hand and picked up the bag.

She reached into it and touched the item inside. It happened to be a square box that felt somewhat familiar.

Her fingers trembled slightly.

She seemed to have some idea of what it was.

Even so, she still held on to a glimmer of hope and prayed that it was not what she thought it was.

Samantha took a deep breath, grabbed the box with her fingers, and exerted a bit of force when pulling the box out.

The light in the tea room was rather dim and there was the vapor from the hot boiling water in front of her. Notwithstanding all those factors, Samantha still saw the box clearly at a glance.

It was more than just a little familiar-looking.

She could not be more familiar with it.

It was the box containing the anchor competition’s first-place trophy. She had promised to get the trophy, which she did and subsequently gave to Timothy.

Samantha did not give herself any time to regret and quickly flipped the lid open. Inside the box was the very trophy she had given him.

She picked up the trophy and gave it a closer look.

She remembered leaving a little scratch at the corner when the trophy fell to the floor after she held onto it.

Lo and behold, the scratch was there.

It was proof that the trophy truly belonged to her, rather than being a forgery sourced by Harmony.

Samantha had given it to Timothy as a token of her love!

She immediately felt her heart being crushed heavily while an astringent feeling rose from her depths.

Samantha clenched the trophy tightly as her fingers trembled fiercely.

She still remembered that Timothy deliberately went home to take the trophy in the middle of the night.

Back then she was moved by how much importance he placed on it, but it turned out that he was anxious to take it from her and comfort Harmony with it.

Upon seeing that, Harmony said proudly, “Remember what I told you a long time ago? Things that don’t belong to you will never be yours. This trophy has come full circle and returned to me in the end.”

“You might have had it for some time, but that doesn’t mean it belongs to you!”

“Can you snap out of it, Samantha?”
