Abigail Bernstein was a quiet and obedient girl who seldom say NO to her father’s decisions. Even when it’s about her marriage.
To save their family’s company out of bankruptcy, her father arranged her to marry Diarmuid Althoff, the grandson of a billionaire. But on their wedding day, the groom did not appear. Abigail was disappointed but could do nothing about it.
Alone and boring on wedding night, Abigail accepted to replace her colleague’s shift. At her workplace, the hospital, she saved a wounded man being hunted down by gangsters, and made out with this stranger to blow off steam.
The stranger, however, turned out to be her husband that did not show up at the altar.
Diarmuid used his contacts and influence to pull up Abigail’s clinic records there. However, he had no idea what the term ‘biochemical pregnancy’ meant in Abigail’s case file. The gynecologist there hence told him, “To put it simply, it’s an extremely early case of miscarriage. The embryo would be flushed out of the uterus before the…
Abigail headed upstairs herself and got into bed to sleep after a shower. She quickly fell asleep, probably because she was too tired. She then vaguely felt movement on the bed. “Urgh…” She tossed around and twitched, asking with a very mild voice, “Done with work?” “Yeah,” Diarmuid murmured softly as he took her into his arms.…
Brian was determined, so Abigail left to ask someone else. But no one was willing, as they were worried they would mess up. It would be embarrassing if it was exposed live that they were not the doctor who performed the surgery! And given how advanced the world wide web was, they would be flamed to…
After all, Abigail was Tommy’s mother. Moreover, she was already absent when Tommy was a baby, so she should not be absent for her second son as well. Even if she did check on the baby every day, she never really took care of him. “Thanks, Mom.” Abigail nodded. “You’ve worked so hard.” She would never have…
Lulu actually liked that dish, but she shook her head since she was in no mood. She sighed. “Can you promise me? To help him?” She was undoubtedly making things hard for a straightlaced, righteous man like Martin, who would never bend the law for personal reasons. Lulu knew that, and that she was not…
Martin looked up then. “You don’t have to talk if you don’t want to do it. Lulu, you can go now.” Lulu turned to him. “Martin, give me some time…” “Don’t you see that he’s being hostile?” Martin pointed out. “You won’t come to an agreement with him anytime soon.” Ricky then glanced between Martin…
Seeing that she was laughing, Martin laughed too. Her smile was fake back when they first got married, but he could feel that it was earnest now. He happily put more salad on her plate. “Alright. Time to eat.” “Yeah,” Lulu replied and picked up her fork. Martin went to bed right after dinner. He…
The truth was that he did not come straight to Abigail after he was informed about Diarmuid’s plane crashing, but instead, he sent anyone they had over to the scene immediately. They in turn confirmed the plane had crashed within Dunesia borders, and just before James arrived at the hilltop mansion, he was further informed that…
James saw that her appearance was fitting and he said, “Let’s go.” They left the house and James drove her to the Twinrise Enterprises headquarters, parking the car in the basement. James turned to look at her just then. “Stay calm.” She was a little nervous, but she managed to gather herself. “I’m alright.” With…
With that, Mrs. Watson jogged into the mansion. Abigail turned toward Eagle at that. “You should pack up too.” Eagle nodded. Abigail and her family arrived at the airport at 6 PM, and James had already arranged for a flight. Although there were a lot of them and a lot of luggage to bring along, they could…
