"You think that thing made a huge mark on my life, like a stain. But thinking that way is wrong. We're the ones who were hurt. Why should someone else's mistake be something bad about me? I used to be scared just like you, afraid people would talk about me, look at me in a mean way. Then I met Xander. He told me that we shouldn't feel bad. The people who did wrong should be the ones to get in trouble." Abigail kept talking about Xander. "I know you think Xander would make a great husband. He's rich and powerful, and he's good-looking too. It's hard to find someone like him. I promise to cherish him. But what matters most is that Xander is really nice. Sometimes, he's so nice that it doesn't seem real. He just told me he'll always be with me. But I'm scared to believe him. I'm scared that if I do, he'll leave me one day, suddenly not wanting me, just like you did."Abigail thought that hoping for something could lead to disappointment. If she did not hope, she would not be let down. Ri

Felix was pacing back and forth in the living room, clearly worried. Finally, he glared at Xander, but as soon as he met Xander's stern gaze, he calmed down. "Mr. Zane..." he began.Xander glanced at him lazily. "Speak up," he said.Felix gathered his courage again. "Caterpie has been alone for over two hours. Shouldn't we check on her? What if something happens? You'd feel terrible, wouldn't you?"Melody nodded vigorously. "Yes! If Caterpie does something reckless, we'll feel guilty for the rest of our lives."Compared to Felix and Melody, who were really worried, Xander was calm. "You've known her since you were kids; you should understand her better than I do. Abigail is a strong woman. Once she gets through this tough time, she'll be able to handle anything.""Strong?" Felix scoffed. "How much more do you want her to be strong?" Xander raised an eyebrow at Felix but said nothing. Felix continued, his voice softening, "When she was a little girl, her dad left her. She had to gr

People often said that home was the best place to be. After moving to Florivera, Cassandra never talked to Abigail about going back to North Florivera, but Abigail could feel that her grandmother missed it. She knew she had to take her grandmother's ashes back to North Florivera to bury her with her grandfather and father, so they could all be together again in a special place.Margaret did not want to let go of her dear friend and thought it was proper to keep the body at home for a few days, like people used to do a long time ago. But she still respected Abigail's wishes. "Alright, we'll do as you say," she agreed."Thank you, Grandma," said Abigail.Margaret reached out and ruffled Abigail's hair. "Remember what your grandma told you, Abigail. From now on, Essy, Xander, and I are your family."Esther came forward and hugged Abigail tightly. "I'll protect you and be with you from now on. I won't let anyone be mean to you."Susanna said, "And me too. I'm about the same age as you

Raymond had always done a great job at work, so he usually was not afraid of inspections. But this time was different. Xander and Margaret were coming themselves, and only Raymond knew about it. He thought something big might be happening and felt uneasy. He did not feel better until Margaret told him it was just a personal matter.He then said, "Mrs. Zane Senior, Mr. Zane, if you need anything, just ask. I know this place better than you, so I can help with whatever you need."Xander nodded. "Give me the car keys. You can go now."Raymond quickly handed over the keys.The van had seven seats, but no driver, so someone had to drive. Since Felix knew North Florivera well, he took on the task without complaining.Felix asked Abigail, "Should we go straight home?"Holding Cassandra's urn tightly, Abigail nodded. "Mm-hmm."Cassandra had an apartment in North Florivera, where they had lived together for many years. Last year, when her grandmother got sick, Abigail brought her to Flor

"That man and the young girl look similar; they must be brother and sister. I guess the old lady is their elder," one person said."Abigail must have tricked them with her sly ways," another commented."Are Harvey and his wife home? They need to step in and deal with this. We can't let her have an easy time here," someone declared.Just then, Xander not far away looked up, giving them a cold, piercing glance that made them shiver."That man's eyes are really scary," one woman whispered."Do you think he might be a criminal running away?" another asked, her voice full of concern."Maybe. Why else would he be with her?" someone else chimed in."Should we call the police? Maybe they need to come and get them.""Yes, call the police. We can't let someone like that stay in our neighborhood," one person insisted."I don't think he looks like a bad guy at all. Just look at his face," someone else disagreed."You can't always tell what someone is like just by looking at them," anothe

This family had an amazing aura, and Xander's was the strongest. When he stood in front of Abigail, he seemed so confident that he scared a group of gossiping women, making them step back. Everyone in the family stood up for Abigail, so she knew she was not alone anymore. Feeling protected like this was wonderful. She looked at them and wanted to say thank you but could not. Instead, she kept that warm feeling in her heart."Grandma, Essy, let's go upstairs and ignore these people," Abigail said, leading them toward the elevator.Abigail was familiar with the place, so she led the way. But she unexpectedly ran into a woman, her uncle's wife, Lauren. The last time Abigail was in North Florivera, they had a big fight. But today, Lauren acted like she forgot all about it and was really friendly. "Abigail," she said, "aren't you going to introduce your new family? Your grandma's apartment has been empty for a while; it might be all dusty. Why don't you all stay with us?"Abigail had alw

Abigail led Xander and the others to go upstairs. When they arrived at the door of the apartment, she could not open the door with her key. Then, she realized that someone had changed the lock.Abigail immediately knew Harvey and his wife did that. She said, "Grandma and everyone, please wait for me here. I'll go downstairs to find someone."Xander immediately stepped forward. "I'll go with you.""You don't have to accompany me. I need you to help me with something else." Abigail then carefully handed her grandmother's urn to Xander. "Don't worry. I'll be back very soon."Xander was worried about Abigail going downstairs alone.But since Paxton was with them, Xander believed no one could bully Abigail. So, he let her go alone.When Abigail came downstairs, she saw Lauren lingering outside the elevator as expected. She was guiltily looking around.When she saw Abigail come downstairs alone, her expression changed. "Little brat, I offered you to bring your in-laws to live in our h

Margaret did not feel it was an embarrassment for Abigail. Instead, she felt very sorry for her. "Abigail, leave this matter to Xander to handle. I promise no one will dare to speak ill about you behind your back or bully you anymore."Abigail smiled. "Grandma, I can handle this myself."Margaret said, "Abigail, don't be so stubborn. They bully you because you're alone and you have no one to rely on. But now you have someone to count on. So, you have to rely on them and don't let the others bully you."Abigail replied, "Grandma, I know I have someone that I can rely on now. That's why I'm not afraid of anything now. I won't allow anyone to bully me."When Margaret opened her mouth and wanted to say something, the locksmith arrived. When he saw it was Abigail who wanted to unlock the door, his expression changed. "Ms. Renee, you're the one who wants to unlock this door?"Abigail answered, "Yes. What's the matter?"The locksmith responded, "You're aware of what's going on and yet y
