Chapter 395: Sadness
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Samantha arrived at the newly opened amusement park in Capital City, she parked her car and walked to the entrance that had been agreed on beforehand. However, Timothy was nowhere to be seen.
She took out her phone and glanced at the time. It happened to be nine o’clock, which was the time she had set with Timothy.
Timothy could not have been that tactless as to stand her up, right?
Samantha waited for another five minutes but Timothy was still nowhere to be seen. She snorted and took out her phone and was prepared to send a message to mock him.
After typing the first word, she saw a tall and handsome figure walking toward her from the corner of her eyes.
Samantha’s heart throbbed and she looked up.
From the front, the man was spotted wearing a casual black shirt and trousers, which accentuated his stellar proportions. His thin and handsome figure made him an eye-catching character when he walked amongst the crowd.
However, his handsome face was expressionless and was even covered with a thin icy layer that displayed his impatience and unhappiness.
Even so, the eyes of all those women around him seemed to light up when they saw him. They had an excited look and some of them could not even hide their screams. “Oh God, this guy is so handsome!”
“Is he a celebrity?”
“Celebrities aren’t that good-looking, are they? Wait a second, I think he looks kinda familiar!”
“Yeah, he does look a little familiar, wait… Isn’t this Timothy Barker, the CEO of the Barker Group?”
“You’re right, it is him! Why is he here?”
It was only when he walked toward Samantha and stopped in front of her that everyone suddenly had a realization.
“It turned out that he came here with Mrs. Barker.”
“I didn’t expect Mr. Barker to accompany his wife to the amusement park in his private time. I’ll be the first to refute those who say that their love is fake!”
“I’m going to die of jealousy, ah, ah… He looks so handsome, so rich, and he loves his wife so much! Mrs. Barker must have saved the world in her last life to get someone like Mr. Barker!”
Samantha looked at the man standing in front of him and curled her lips in a smile. “Darling, you’re here! I thought…you were afraid to show up.”
She smiled very sweetly but the sarcasm was evident.
Timothy looked condescendingly at her and curled his lips while retorting, “There isn’t a place that I’m afraid of going!”
“That’s good.”
As Samantha responded, she stretched out her arm and grabbed his arm immediately. “Let’s go in.”
She did so in such a natural manner, but Timothy frowned.
Her actions were unnecessary and he hated being in such close contact with anyone.
He glanced across Samantha’s beautiful profile, and for some unknown reason, did not pull his arm back.
After all, they were in public and everyone recognized the two of them. In any case, they still had to maintain their appearance of a loving couple to the outside world.
Therefore, he allowed her to hold his arm.
After checking the tickets, the two of them entered the park.
As soon as they entered, they saw a magnificent castle standing before them. It was so dreamy that Samantha immediately took out her cell phone to take some beautiful pictures.
Timothy stood behind her and could not understand why she was so excited, just like a little girl.
What was so good about that?
What was there to be excited about that?
It was not as though there were contracts worth tens of billions in front of her.
For some reason, however, he looked at her jubilant smile and somehow felt a little less repelled by that childish and boring place.
On the left was a large shopping mall within the park that specialized in selling all kinds of amusement park souvenirs. Samantha turned around and said to Timothy, “Let’s go in and have a look, Timothy!”
As soon as she said that, she grabbed Timothy’s hand without so much as asking and immediately pulled him in.
The items inside were all cute and just so happened to spark her youthful side. Samantha then walked to the shelf where all kinds of headbands were placed.
It was probably marketed toward couples because the styles came in pairs.
Samantha fell in love at first sight with an angel-style headband. She picked it up and put it on her head, then turned around and asked Timothy, “What do you think? Does this little angel headband look good on me?”
She even deliberately winked at him with her big, black and beautiful eyes.
Timothy glanced at her. Samantha’s appearance was nowhere near special to him and he should have remained indifferent at that moment.
However, he did not know whether it was her smile that was too bright, or because her delicate facial features were paired with that angel-style headband, but it made him feel as though he was looking at a little fairy…
He could not compliment her though because the last thing he wanted was for Samantha to know what he was thinking about.
Samantha was unperturbed by his reaction and mumbled, “I’ll take your silence as a yes, and that I’m really pretty.”
“You know, Timothy, I’m honestly jealous of you for marrying a wife as beautiful as me.”
Timothy was speechless.
Samantha smiled and said again, “Lower your head, Timothy.”
Timothy did not move and frowned. “Why?”
“I have something to tell you, just lower your head.”
Timothy’s brows were still frowning, but he bent down slightly and lowered his head toward her.
Samantha put a devil horn headband directly on Timothy’s head at lightning speed.
Timothy’s expression froze and he raised his hand to pull off the headband.
He did not want to wear such a ridiculous thing on his head!
Samantha already predicted he would do so and grabbed his hand to protest, “Don’t take it down!”
Timothy sneered. “Do you want me to parade myself with this thing on me?”
He had already reluctantly agreed to her going to the amusement park and yet that woman still made incessant demands!
“It suits you perfectly. So handsome!” Samantha boasted heartily. “Besides, I’m an angel, and you’re a devil. We’re a couple!”
“Tch!”
Samantha was a little sad. Her eyelashes drooped and her voice sank. “I was so cooperative with you during the dinner, Timothy. I dressed like a decorative item and didn’t even complain when I stood in high heels all night! All I’m asking from you today is for you to wear a headband, and you’re not even willing to do that…”
She let go of his arm and said, “Since you’re so reluctant to go on a date with me, then just forget about it and leave.”
Timothy stared at her deeply.
He knew that she was pretending because a woman like Samantha could never be so depressed over something as trivial as this.
He would not be fooled by her!
He had fulfilled his request to go on a date with her, so her decision to give up halfway through was her problem.
“Those are your words.”
Timothy said that and directly pulled off the devil horn headband from his head. He turned around and immediately walked towards the door.
Samantha stood still and watched as the man left without hesitation. He went further and further away from her line of sight until his figure could no longer be seen.
Deep inside Samantha’s eyes was a sad glow.
