Melody always had inappropriate thoughts, so Abigail did not want to talk about nonsense with her."Where's Fee? Let's get off work early today. I'll treat you guys to a good meal.""Why are you suddenly being so generous? Did you get a bonus?" asked Melody.Abigail nodded furiously. "Mhm, mhm. I've been working quite hard for the past half a year or so. But seeing how I've earned more in the past six months compared to the entirety of last year, all of the hard work was worth it."Melody was happy to see Abigail's hard work get rewarded."We'll have to have something expensive, then. The three of us must properly celebrate this.""How does The Deli sound?" Abigail had wanted to go to this restaurant for a while, but she had not found the time.Melody said, "I want to go there too."The three of them earned more than most people. However, they usually were not high spenders. Their common favorite hobby was eating."By the way, Caterpie. Previously, the things you asked me to h
Xander said, "If you have something to say, just say it."Shawn moved closer to Xander and said mysteriously, "I saw your wife and her boyfriend. They're also having a meal here at this restaurant. Do you wanna go over and say hello?"Xander moved sideways and looked into the room. Sure enough, he saw the disgusting pair of man and woman. The two were even talking and laughing."Let's go." Xander stood up and left.'I can't stomach anything if I eat in the same space as the disgusting couple,' he thought.Shawn quickly followed behind him. He said in a gloating manner, "Xander, at the end of the day, you two are husband and wife, so just end things nicely. After all, you're not the only man in the world who got cheated on, so there's nothing to be embarrassed about."Xander said irritatedly, "Have you informed her about our divorce tomorrow?"Shawn took out his phone. "I'll inform her this instant. Don't worry; she can't run away as long as she's in North Florivera."While Abig
Abigail took her suitcase as fast as she could. Then, she took a cab and rushed to the hospital.In the cab, Shawn called her again. He was really persistent."Ms. Renee, we had a deal yesterday. What exactly are you doing today?"Abigail was indeed the one who bailed on them, so she said, "Atty. Cooper, I'm so sorry! I didn't stand you up on purpose, but something happened back home last minute, and I need to handle it. Can we schedule another time for the divorce after I've settled this matter?""A divorce only takes a few minutes. Come and go through the divorce proceedings first. After you've gone through the divorce proceedings, I'll be your driver and drive you to wherever you want to go, okay?" asked Shawn.'Forget about being her driver. If Abigail can quickly come and go through the divorce proceedings, I think if she asks me to get down on my knees and call her grandma, I'll do it too,' he thought."I'm not in Florivera right now, so please stop calling me. I'll contact
Abigail felt incredibly guilty. "This is all my fault. If I had taken my grandma to Florivera to stay with me earlier, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened."Suddenly, loud swearing came from the lobby, interrupting Abigail and the doctor's conversation."That old wench is on her deathbed, yet she still isn't willing to give me her bank card and its password.""The reason she's not giving you her bank card is surely because she wants to give the money to that bitch, Abigail. When that old woman wakes up, you must find a way to get the password no matter what it takes. We certainly can't let that bitch win."Abigail instantly recognized these voices; they belonged to her uncle, Harvey Renee, and her aunt, Lauren Wright.'Grandma is seriously ill, and the two of them aren't thinking about how to cure her, but her savings instead. What a heartless couple!' she thought.Hearing the two's voices, Dr. Bishop frowned in disgust. "Abigail, it might be difficult for you to transfer y
"Come and follow us home. We'll have a welcoming banquet for you," Harvey and his wife said while moving closer to Abigail. One of them was on the left while the other was on the right; they attempted to reach out and grab Abigail.Abigail saw right through them. The two thought they disguised themselves well, but the greed in their eyes could not be hidden at all.Abigail did not dodge them. Instead, she looked sharply at the four hands reaching out to her."What are you two trying to do to me again?" she asked icily.'Not only did this girl get prettier, but she's also giving off an unapproachable feeling, making it hard for me to look straight at her,' they thought.Lauren was a little scared. However, she was reluctant to give up on an opportunity she almost got her hands on. "Oh, Abigail. How could you say such a thing? What could we do to you? We just wanted to invite you over for some tea..."Abigail laughed. "Going over to your house for some tea? Just like back then, I w
Harvey and his wife were completely oblivious to the gravity of the situation, speaking without shame. "When have I ever slandered anyone? You're the ones randomly arresting me. I should be suing you for defamation."A man dressed in a suit emerged from the crowd. "Officer, this phone contains videos of this couple causing trouble in the hospital and slandering others."Harvey sneered, "So what if I cursed someone? I cursed someone from my own family. What business is it of anyone else?"Abigail approached them with a smile. "Harvey, Lauren, I'm not the same Abigail you once knew. But you two haven't changed at all, not even worthy of being my adversaries.""You just wait, you little..." Harvey raised his hand to hit her, but the police did not give him a chance, taking him and his wife away without delay.Once the couple was gone, the crowd of onlookers dispersed, and peace returned to the area. The medical staff, previously harassed by the couple, gratefully looked toward the ma
"Seems like my Abigail has quite a status at home." The thought of her granddaughter and grandson-in-law living a good life brought renewed strength to Cassandra. "Alright, I'll listen to you, we'll go to Florivera."With Cassandra's agreement, Abigail felt happy. "I'll make the arrangements right away, Grandma.""No need to rush, I have something to give you first." Her grandmother reached into her gown, finding nothing, then remembered she was wearing a hospital gown. She anxiously looked around. "Abigail, where's my coat?""Don't worry, Grandma, I put it away." Abigail hurriedly handed the coat.Cassandra opened the coat and found a patch sewn inside. She tried to tear it open but was unable to. "Abigail, help me remove this patch."Abigail obediently did as asked, uncovering a hidden compartment with a bank card inside.Cassandra shoved the card into Abigail's hand. "Abigail, the compensation money from your father's accident and the dowry I prepared for you are stored in thi
After ensuring her grandmother was sound asleep, Abigail took out her personal phone. Upon turning it on, she was immediately bombarded with multiple missed calls – all from Shawn.She stepped out of the room and returned his call, only to be met with an irate voice on the other end. "Ms. Renee, what on earth are you trying to do?" Shawn demanded.Taking a deep breath, Abigail collected herself before replying, "Atty. Cooper, please inform Mr. Hart that I cannot proceed with the divorce for the time being."Furious, Shawn yelled, "Ms. Renee, you cannot go back on your word like this! We've signed the divorce agreement and agreed to finalize it today. Why are you changing your mind now?"Abigail replied, "I'm just postponing the divorce, not canceling it."Shawn interrogated her, "Why do you need to postpone it?"Abigail quickly explained, "My grandmother is ill, and she's constantly asking about her grandson-in-law. If I tell her I'm getting a divorce right now, it could worsen h
