Once Bitten, Twice Shy

412 I’m Back, Sammy!

The swivel chair turned around slowly and the man’s facial features were slowly reflected in Samantha’s eyes. She could not be more familiar with that handsome face and her heartbeat accelerated suddenly when she looked at him.

Timothy...

If the period of a month was counted strictly, he would need at least another five days before returning, but he ended up showing up there!

Was the hypnosis session completed ahead of schedule? Or was the second personality so deeply in love with Harmony that he would come back to save her at all costs?

Neither outcome was favorable to her.

Samantha’s expression immediately became alert and she clenched her hands suddenly as they hung on both sides of her body.

If she failed to destroy Harmony when doing so was within reach, she might vomit blood because of her anger!

She could not help but shift her glance from Timothy’s face to the document on the table, thinking whether or not she should rush over and snatch it away while he was unprepared.

However, that thought was cut off in just a second.

Timothy had returned, and even if she went to the police station with the document, he still had the right to withdraw the lawsuit.

Various thoughts appeared in Samantha’s mind but she did not notice that Timothy’s black eyes were staring deeply at her. His eyes were not violent like the second personality and had a kind of deep nostalgia and tenderness to them.

The man stood up and walked up to Samantha in a couple of strides. He then opened his arms and hugged her.

His strength was so great that it conveyed all his emotions.

He buried his head between Samantha’s neck and felt the temperature of her body. He closed his eyes contentedly and said with almost a sigh, “I’m back, Sammy!”

The hug came so suddenly that Samantha could not respond at first and her entire body became stiff.

It was not until she heard what he said that her black pupils dilated and her body trembled uncontrollably.

Did he call her ‘Sammy’?

Timothy’s second personality almost always called her by her first name, although occasionally he would call her his ‘wife’ if he was deliberately playing with her. However, he never addressed her so intimately as Sammy.

The only one who called her that was...the main personality.

Did the main personality come back?

Even though that was what Samantha had been looking forward to, it came so unexpectedly that she was more shocked than happy under that circumstance.

“You...”

Samantha moved her lips and asked in an extremely uncertain tone, “Are you really Timothy?”

“Yes.”

The man wrapped his arms tightly around her and rubbed his nose against the top of her head. He looked as though he had finally regained something dear that he lost.

Samantha’s heart skipped a beat because that small movement was undoubtedly a small habit peculiar to the main personality.

Moreover, she felt a trace of warmth in that hug.

The second personality had hugged her before, but his embrace was always cold and made one feel as though something sharp was pressed up against their back.

However, she was not quite sure yet.

Samantha raised her hand and pushed him away without hesitation.

Timothy sensed her refusal and frowned slightly. There was some reluctance in his eyes but he let go of her as she wished.

Samantha bit her lower lip lightly and asked again, “Are you now...the main personality?”

Timothy’s black eyes looked straight at her without avoiding her gaze. He then answered, “Yes.”

Samantha narrowed her eyes and scrutinized him all over.

As she looked at him for some time, she started to feel a little discouraged.

It was very hard to tell on the surface which personality was inside his body. When she tried to identify the second personality in the past, she was merely putting forth all sorts of hypotheses, and even that needed a lot of effort.

Samantha could not completely let go of her vigilance against the man in front of her and she said honestly, “I can’t tell whether you’re the main personality or the second...”

She could not believe it just because he said so.

The second personality was very cunning and she fell for his tricks many times before.

Timothy’s handsome face did not show any sign of doubt or unhappiness when he heard that. His voice was as insipid as usual when he said, “I understand, Sammy.”

However, his next sentence was very firm, “But, I really am back.”

Samantha also knew that staring like that would not do her any good because she would not get any convincing answer even if she stared the entire day.

She looked past Timothy and glanced at the document on the desk behind her.

She thought for a moment and looked at Timothy as she said, “Now that you’re back, I’m sure you know that the Barker Foundation is going to sue Harmony, right?”

Timothy’s expression remained unchanged. “Yes.”

Samantha continued, “Since you’re here, I don’t need to take matters into my own hands anymore. You can just sign that document.”

Harmony was waiting for Timothy’s second personality to come back and save her, right?

The second personality would not sign that agreement!

Samantha was soon going to find out if he would sign it!
