Chapter 1093 You Are Not My Parents
After this, Austin finally asked about Tina.Austin: [How have you been during this time? Have they done anything to you? Have they tortured you?]
Seeing the message from Austin, Tina felt a warmth in her heart, her eyes slightly reddening. Austin still cared about her; her genuine feelings were not in vain.
Tina: [I'm fine! They just locked me up and didn't do anything to me.]
Seeing Tina's message, Austin visibly breathed a sigh of relief, not even noticing his subtle change.
Austin stared at the phone screen for a while, finally making up his mind and sending a message.
Tina's phone beeped. A message from Austin popped up on the screen. [I'll find a way to get you out! Then I'll escort you out of Sunset Bay.]
Reading his message, Tina couldn't help but smile. However, she didn't hesitate and directly refused his kindness.
Tina: [No, I can't let you take the risk. Sunset Bay is the Langley family's territory. Getting me out is too dangerous, and you'll be exposed.]
Austin: [Although Sunset Bay is the Langley family's territory, the Moore family also has a strong presence here! Since I said I'll get you out, I'll make sure everything is perfectly planned and foolproof!]
Seeing his message, Tina hesitated for a moment. [If I leave, what about Hannah? What about our plan?]
Austin's message came quickly: [Our plan just failed this time, and we can't act again in the short term. Hannah is now with Charles. Once Charles completely wins Hannah's heart and you become less important to her, your value will be gone, and Charles will definitely deal with you. You got involved with the Langley family because of me, so I can't let anything happen to you.]
So it was because of principles. Tina's eyes dimmed. Indeed, Austin had only ever cared about Hannah. How could he be helping her out of concern for her?
Tina: [Alright! We'll use this number to contact each other from now on. Let me know when you have a plan.]
Since the plan was temporarily on hold, she might as well leave! There was no need for her to stay here any longer. Indeed, the longer she stayed, the more dangerous it became.
Although she was alone and unafraid of death, she couldn't bear to leave Austin. She couldn't let Austin fight alone.
Charles had so many relatives and friends helping him, and he was strong himself. Austin had always been fighting alone. If she stayed alive, at least Austin would have someone to support him.
Austin: [Alright! As always, clear our chat history.]
Tina: [OK!]
After ending the chat, Tina, as always, deleted all her chat history with Austin.
After getting in touch with Austin, Tina finally felt at peace. She held her phone with both hands, pressed it to her chest, and closed her eyes in contentment.
Great! She would soon see Austin and escape this place. She would soon be free.
Sunshine Manor, study.
Charles looked at Emma, his expression indifferent, and asked in a deep voice, "You've been spending quite a bit of time in Tina's room these past few days."
Emma lowered her head and respectfully answered, "Yes! Ms. Morris was bored and chatted with me for a while."
Charles raised an eyebrow, his expression becoming meaningful. "What did you talk about?"
Emma answered truthfully, "Not much. She asked about my family, and we talked about my son, so we ended up talking more."
Charles stared at her without blinking. "Anything else?"
Emma shook her head. "No!"
Charles quietly stared at Emma for a while, his eyes seemingly able to see through everything, but he found nothing.
After a moment, Charles waved his hand and said, "Tina is very cunning. From now on, besides taking care of her daily needs, don't chat with her."
Emma respectfully answered, "I understand!"
Only then did Charles wave her away.
Days passed peacefully again. Tina was still the same as before, only letting her guard down when facing Hannah. At other times, she was cold and unsmiling.
Seeing that she had been behaving herself, Charles didn't ask much of her. He just brought Hannah to see her from time to time.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye. Everyone began to relax their vigilance.
Hannah's parents, upon learning that Hannah had been found, rushed to Sunset Bay immediately. Hannah was unusually resistant to these nominal parents.
When Lisa held Hannah's hand, Hannah almost immediately pulled her hand back, showing strong resistance, as if there was no familial bond between them.
Hannah hid behind Charles, scared, and asked, "Charles, who are these two people?"
Lisa was stunned. She knew before coming that Hannah had forgotten some things. But she hadn't expected that Hannah would forget even her own mother. "Hannah, I'm your mother! How could you forget me?"
Quentin quickly added, "Yes! I'm your father! We came as soon as we knew you were back. How are you feeling now? Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?"
Hannah, without any hesitation, decisively said, "You are not my parents!"
Lisa and Quentin laughed.
Lisa said, "Hannah, what nonsense are you talking about? How could you not be our daughter? If you don't believe me, ask Charles if we are your parents."
Hannah's attitude was firm. "No! I don't like you! If you were really my parents, why wouldn't I like you? People say that the bond of blood can be felt even after a long separation. I don't feel anything from you."
Lisa and Quentin were shocked.
Seeing them speechless, Hannah continued, "For example, the first time I met Charles, even though I didn't know him, I didn't dislike him and felt a sense of familiarity. That feeling was very magical."
"Including Aunt Lassie, Aunt Daisy, and everyone in the Langley family, even if I didn't know them, I didn't dislike them. I felt a desire to be close to them. But with you two, I feel nothing! In fact, I really dislike you!"
Since losing her memory, she had been trying to feel everyone around her. She liked someone from the bottom of her heart, without any reason. But for these two people who claimed to be her parents, she felt a strong dislike and rejection.
