Chapter 9 - We haven't contacted each other for half a year?Abigail dialed the first number she could remember, held her broken phone in one hand, while her other hand clung hard to the telephone.She listened expectantly, hoping to hear the familiar voice of her boyfriend, Dave Anderson, but to her disappointment it was the automatic voice of the service provider that sounded.'This user's number has been disconnected,'Abigail was quite shocked, she hung up and dialed again, but the response was the same. Dave's number was disconnected.How could his line be disconnected?Could she have remembered it incorrectly?But the possibility of that was very unlikely. There was no way in the world she could have remembered incorrectly, this was Dave's number for pete's sake.After dialing the third time, she still heard the same automatic response. Abigail felt a churn in her stomach. She had to give up for the time being, and dialed in her father's number.It was the same automatic respons

Chapter 8- Doing sports togetherAsher leaned closer to her, noticing the curiosity imprinted in her eyes. "You are capable of warming the sheets just fine during winter" Asher said in a serious manner.Abigail blinked, it took her a full quarter-second to understand his words. So that was the only virtue she possessed. Somehow, she felt bad. "Thank you Mr. Reed," She smiled peevishly, dropping her eyes on Mr Reed hands on her waist. "Too bad it's summer now, you can let go of me." She smiled sarcastically.Asher was calm, staring at her, "It's much safer for you this way. After all, I had only left you for a second, and you fainted in the waiting room.""That was a different case, Mr Reed, I had been hit by Emma that's why I fainted." She inhaled deeply, "But seriously, if you don't let go of me, I might faint again because I can hardly breathe" Abigail really missed her once slender and perfect figure.After hearing her words, Asher didn't let her go, but pulled away just a little

Chapter 7- Don't You Touch Me?Abigail could feel the awkwardness that charged the air. She paused, watching Asher who was staring right back at her with a serious face. She didn't want to upset him, so she got up, clutching the thin fabric of her nighties together.Abigail sat down on the other side of the bed. This was very uncomfortable for her. She may have been married to him for a long time, but he felt like a complete stranger to her."What will happen to Emma and Clara?" She decided to fill the awkward silence."They will be investigated by the police. There seems to be a mastermind behind the whole incident. "The police will take care of it," he said."Did the police find Clara's phone?""It was already broken when we found you..."Abigail hissed. "Clara broke it! Those little bitches, now we will never know who the mastermind is. ""The phone is broken, but we can access its call records.""That's right! How could I forget about that? So we can find out tomorrow, right? " S

Chapter 6- Hey, why are you taking off your clothes?Abigail steadied her gaze, staring at the woman beside her."Do you know who I am?" The woman asked, her lips wide with a smile.Abigail looked at her intently, but unfortunately, nothing came through. She pursed her lips, shaking her head. "No. I'm afraid not. "The woman's face fell disappointedly, but her smile was still bright. "That's alright. Mrs. Reed, I am your doctor, Natasha Griffen." She said, smiling. "Do you feel uncomfortable? Are you in pain?" She asked.Abigail swerved her head sideways, and on the sofa was Asher Reed. He was sitting with his hands crossed against his chest, watching her. Their eyes met briefly, but she retracted her stare."For a start, my head hurts badly." Abigail touched the back of her hair, which had been carefully bandaged."That's normal. Anything else?" Natasha asked.Abigail considered her for a second. "This may sound crazy, but I can't remember anything from the last two years. It's as if

Chapter 5- Who is the mastermind?　It was a surveillance video. Mr Reed picked the tablet from the table, showing the video to everyone. Abigail felt strange watching the person in the video. Not only did she look utterly fat in the video, there was something wrong with her. She seemed to have no spirit at all, like someone who has lost their will to live. This wasn't her. She couldn't be that person in the video. Abigail had always been spirited and bright, how did her life change so drastically?She fought back her unwanted tears, focussing on the video. She saw herself walk to the staircase like a zombie who'd completely lost its human brains. Then Clara and Emma emerged from behind, they smiled sickly at each other. Just as Abigail began to descend the stairs, Clara and Emma's hands pushed her down the stairs. The housekeeper rushed from the kitchen to Abigail with concern, while Clara and Emma were still standing at the entrance of the stairs. Abigail placed a hand on her ches

Chapter 4- Do you have proof?"What?Abigail was shocked. Her eyes were especially bulging and round. The back of her head ached the more.Who was this Emma and Clara? And why would they push her down the stairs?"Tell them to come over." Mr. Reed ordered.Abigail's eyes darted from Mr. Reed to the housekeeper"Yes, Mr. Reed." The housekeeper shuddered and walked away.Abigail had many words to say, but they were all stuck in her throat as she cast a troubled glance at Mr. ReedHow she wished all these were just a terrible nightmare, but the swollen wound at the back of her head served as a constant reminder that this wasn't a dream.Mr. Reed turned his head away from her and the room returned to silenceHe picked up the tablet from the table, without saying a word. She took her seat, and waited in the uncomfortable silence that kept covered the room. Thankfully, she didn't have to suffer too longThere was a knock on the door, she hurried to it, getting it open.
