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.
He even had a hand on her waist, and now he was acting as if there was nothing between them? She really wanted to tell him that he would make a good actor just then! Deciding for him just then, she said, “Let her in, Mrs. Watson.” Kathy entered the instant Mrs. Watson opened the…
“I’m not. Stan Hill arranged for that lady to come just now. It was his idea to have you see me with other women, and he said that you have feelings for me if you end up jealous.” Brushing his finger over the back of her hand, Diarmuid then added softly, “Did you know how…
After over an hour, the recovery team returned to the boat. “Sorry, we couldn’t find her. It’s already difficult to launch a search in the middle of the sea, and in the darkness of the night.” Chad leaned against the scaffolding and looked out at the borderless sea. Land was not in sight, and only…
Abigail, however, did not wonder if Lionel still loved Sheryl the most important thing to do right now was to get away. It was obvious that Samantha was prepared, since she was driving further into the quieter parts of the city. Right now, Abigail must come up with a plan to make Samantha stop the…
Ashe ordered his men to bring Abigail up the boat, she quickly tried to swim away. She was exhausted, however, and eventually gave up. The water was chilly and she had been in it too long as well. Moreover, Chad had no reason to hurt her since they had no quarrel. Since she was soaking…
Abigail could not remember Diarmuid’s number, or she would have. “I didn’t.” She smiled. Chad doubted her, and told his people to check with the front desk. Abigail, however, was not worried because she did not call Diarmuid anyway, and Chad’s goon soon returned. “She did make a call, but it wasn’t to Diarmuid Althoff.”…
“Abigail?” She sounded very worried. “I’m here,” Abigail replied. “Are you alright? I was so worried when I couldn’t reach you.” “I’m fine. Have you arrived at Cloud City? Where are you now? I’ll come to you.” “I’m at work right now,” Lulu replied. “I’m only free after six. Let’s meet up somewhere.” “Okay,” Abigail…
Lionel sighed then, but did not try to push her. The rift between them had existed for far too long. It was impossible to desire more kinship ‘from her. “Samantha will visit around five with dinner,” he said. Abigail nodded. Time flew by, and it was soon 5 PM. “Lionel,” Samantha greeted him as she…
Once outside the hospital, Abigail whipped out her phone to call Lulu-she happened to be free, and they arranged to meet at a teahouse. But by sheer coincidence, Abigail ran into Zachary just outside the teahouse. He seemed to have withered considerably after getting constantly drunk for a while now, and a lot less bright…
