No Escape From the Ex-husband by Summer Winters

Chapter 0070 

Samantha did not reject Kendrick in front of everyone, but she was still here as Francis‘ partner. 

“Mr. Ford, please respect your employees.” 

Samantha stood next to Francis and said softly, “Nothing happened last night.” 

Samantha looked at him intensely. 

Kendrick’s smile was enigmatic as he swirled the glass of red wine he was holding and said in a low voice, “You’re not just my employee.” 

“We have a labor contract.” 

“Before this, we even had a marriage certificate, didn’t we?” 

Kendrick’s gaze traveled all over her and stopped at Samantha’s waist. 

Samantha stopped moving, and when she thought about what had happened last night, she covered her abdomen slightly. 

She looked at him, blushing. “You…” 

She had a pale red birthmark at her waist that was about the size of a pinky finger. 

Ever since she returned, she had never worn anything that revealed her abdomen, so naturally, there were very few people who knew about it.. 

Even Francis didn’t know about it, even though they’d been living together for a few years. 

Thinking about the fact that her top had been changed last night, she could guess what Kendrick had done. 

“Ms. Meadows, I remember that Ms. Duncan had a similar birthmark on her waist.” 

Kendrick’s gaze chilled. 

Samantha’s heart skinned a beat. How did Kendrick know that the old Samantha 

had a birthmark on her waist?

Even if there had been that absurd night, Kendrick might not have noticed the 

extremely faint birthmark on her waist. 

As she thought about it, she frowned and met Kendrick’s eyes. 

“It’s impossible. Ms. Duncan doesn’t have any birthmarks at all.” 

“Are you very 

you very close to her? How do you know that she doesn’t have any birthmarks?” 

Kendrick’s meaning was clear. 

“If it hadn’t been for me, Ms. Duncan may not even have had the chance to enter the 

delivery room.” 

Samantha’s expression was restored, and she looked bitterly at Kendrick. 

That year, she had only survived in a foreign country with Francis‘ help. 

However, because of how busy he was, when faced with all the problems of 

pregnancy, the only thing that Francis could do was to give her money to find a 

suitable nanny. 

She hadn’t even been able to be admitted to a hospital even though she was 

breaking out in a cold sweat in the middle of the night. 

They couldn’t admit her because the hospitals overseas were different from those at 

home. 

“If you still have a shred of feeling for Ms. Duncan, Mr. Ford, then please do not. 

mention her in front of me again. 

“If I had enough money and time to let her have an abortion at the time, then Ms. 

Duncan wouldn’t have died.” 

Samantha’s expression was haggard. 

Bitterness spread through Kendrick’s heart, slowly eating through the wall he had 

put up. 

He clearly remembered giving her a sum of money before they divorced, but that 

money seemed to have disappeared into thin air. 

He had once thought that she had spent the money on her parents, but Samantha’s. parents had been living on Sophia and Alexis‘ transfers until now. 

The money… 

“Kenny!” Linda’s voice pulled Kendrick back to reality. 

Linda took Kendrick’s arm affectionately and smiled sweetly. “I rarely see you daydreaming.” 

Kendrick looked around instinctively. 

He had just lost focus for a moment, and the gorgeous woman just now had already disappeared. 

He could only faintly see that smudge of scarlet in the distant crowd. 

Had his instincts really been wrong? 

He held the wine glass. He really hadn’t been attentive enough to Samantha, and now it was too difficult to find the common points between Sophia and Samantha.. 

“Where’s Jude?” Kendrick asked indifferently, moving off with Linda in the opposite 

direction from Samantha. 

“He’s over there. Someone stopped him.” 

Linda pointed in a direction. 

Kendrick looked sideways at Samantha, then disappeared into the crowd with Linda 

to discuss his own business. 

Samantha was surrounded by heiresses and wealthy upper–class wives as she 

quietly watched Kendrick and Linda leave together.. 

She couldn’t help but feel melancholic. 

Whether it was Samantha or the current Sophia, weren’t they both just playthings to 

him? 

In the past, she had tied him to her with power and status. If he found out now that 

she was Samantha, it would be a disaster and might even affect her parents.

It was already too late to stop on the path she had chosen. 

The love in her heart was buried once again, and the scar on her face throbbed. 

“How did Ms. Meadows become Mr. Ford’s secretary? I never knew that Mr. Ford 

needed a secretary.” 

One of the spoiled women beside her laughed shrilly, and her gaze swept over 

Samantha. Her eyes were full of jealousy. 

“Because I am capable.” 

Samantha’s 

mouth curled up in a charming smile, and she tucked loose strands of 

her hair behind her ear and began to walk. 

She left the bunch of women looking at each other. 

The sheltered life of a pampered heiress no longer belonged to her. Her confidence 

naturally came as she weaved between the bosses and the elite with ease. 

Without Samantha noticing, Kendrick left the venue and got into the car. He quietly 

dropped Linda off on the way and then instructed Jude. 

“Go home.” 

Jude paused in the midst of driving, and after a few seconds, he asked, “Cloudtop 

Villas? Or somewhere else?” 

“The old Ford residence.” 

For the first time, Kendrick sank into distant memories, 

In the past, even if he hadn’t really paid atten to Samantha, he had taken all her 

gentle ministrations for granted.”
