If Paxton really paid them a million dollars, Harvey and Lauren could just enjoy the rest of their lives without needing to work hard anymore.Paxton looked at their greedy expressions as he sneered, "Sure."Harvey and Lauren thought, 'He actually agreed to pay a million dollars without any hesitation!'Abigail's family-in-law probably has over 10 million dollars' worth of assets.'They suddenly felt a million dollars was too little and that they should ask for more. They thought they should at least figure out a way to get 5 million dollars.When Harvey was about to ask for more, Lauren quickly pulled him aside. "Hubby, I think we should think carefully about this. We shouldn't just blindly ask him for more money. After all, that little bitch isn't worth this price at all. If we ask for too much, we might not even get a million dollars if he changes his mind."Harvey still wanted to ask for much more money. But he was also worried that what Lauren said would happen. He responded

Paxton said, "It's really Abigail!"Lauren demanded, "Since you've seen it now, give us the money."Paxton coldly smiled as he said, "What's the use of these videos to me? Why should I transfer money to you?"Harvey said, "You..."Lauren was extremely mad. "You bastard. Are you playing games with us? If you don't give us the money today, don't even think about leaving this residential area.""Let's see if I can leave this area." Paxton coldly glanced at the married couple twice before he turned away and left.Lauren was so furious that she wanted to go and grab Paxton. Luckily, Harvey stopped her. "What are you doing? The two of us are definitely no match for him. Be patient. When our people are here, we'll make him pay."Lauren angrily raised her fists and ruthlessly hit Harvey continuously. "One million dollars! The one million dollars was just gone like that. Harvey, you owe me a million dollars!"Harvey felt so painful that he shrunk his neck in and tried to dodge her punch

The scene of the man looking at Abigail with his wretched and repulsive gaze as he fondled her all over tested every fiber of Xander's self-restraint.A very terrifying thought suddenly appeared in his mind, of him gouging the man's eyes out and cutting both his hands off...Paxton sensed the dark aura emanating from Xander and could tell what he was thinking. "Mr. Zane, with your word, I can make that piece of shit that dared to bully Mrs. Zane never see the next sunrise."Oh, how Xander wished to rip that man to shreds, but he still maintained his composure. "This isn't that bastard's first tango. Go and investigate. We'll deal with him with the law once he's investigated."Paxton gave Xander a surprised look, as if he could not believe the method Xander had chosen to deal with this matter, but after a brief thought, he understood why.Now that Xander was a family man, he would consider Abigail's position before doing anything, so he would no longer be so unrestrained or unscrup

Abigail's idea was bold. She wanted to speak out for the many girls who had suffered as she did. Her actions however would also attract brickbats.Xander raised his eyebrows. "You do understand what'll happen if you do that, right?"She nodded. "I know. If I go ahead with this, that means the videos will be made public and allow many more people to witness what I went through in the past."If it was a few years back, I wouldn't have dared to let these videos come to light. But now, I'm no longer afraid. You told me yourself that this isn't my fault, it's the abuser's fault. I'm just protecting my legal rights."Abigail looked at Xander in the eyes when she said all those. Her eyes were bright and energetic, allowing Xander to see the strength and determination within her.He was unable to refuse her. "Fine, I'll pass the videos to you. You'll handle this matter yourself.""Thank you!" Abigail was very thankful that he was willing to trust her, letting her handle her matters herse

"I'm your husband". These words may sound simple, but it allowed Abigail to know that even when her grandmother was gone, she was not alone. She still had relatives and people she could rely on.A surge of warmth welled inside Abigail. It not only warmed her heart, but also her entire person.She then grabbed Xander's hand and said, "Got it."Her answer too was simple, but Xander caught the meaning in her words. "Just do whatever you want to do with gusto. I'll always be supporting you from behind.""Oh, good lord, Xander, that's so cheesy." Esther suddenly popped her head out. "Abigail, Xander, weren't you building a table earlier? How come the two of you ended up flirting here in the hallway?"Abigail was at a loss for words.Everyone was working together just now.Felix and Melody left with Susanna to prepare dinner while Margaret and Esther were preparing items for the funeral service.Abigail and Xander on the other hand were assembling a table to serve as a platform to di

"Thank you for coming to give my grandma her final send off, Benjamin and Clara," Abigail said gratefully.Clara said, "We'll go pay our respects first and then get Jethro the astrologer to look for a favorable date.""Alright."With the visitors paying their respects, Abigail stood by the side and returned the gesture.After paying their respects, the Thompsons followed Abigail to look for Jethro to determine a good day for Cassandra's burial.Jethro approached Cassandra's urn and after some chanting, he opened his eyes and said, "Ill omen! Ill portents abound!"Abigail was shocked. "What do you mean, Mr. Jethro?""Your grandmother died of unnatural causes; her vengeful spirit lingers!"Abigail was never one to believe in superstition, but the elder folks did.When Clara heard that, she panicked. "What do we do then, Mr. Jethro?""It's not something difficult to deal with, it just needs a bit of time and money."Clara looked at Abigail and asked, "Abigail, what say you?""

Margaret got anxious. "Abigail, this is no joking matter. Listen to me. Xander, go and book a hotel room nearby. You're not to come here without my express permission.""Grandma, how can you fall for such nonsense?" Abigail was aghast.Margaret was particularly stubborn about this. As she had failed to look after her charge and caused Cassandra's death, she had been blaming herself since.Now, she did not want the Zane family to cause any more misery to Abigail. "I'll be in charge of everything from now on."Margaret not only had experience in running a company, but she also had experience in conducting funerals. In fact, it would be better if she handled Cassandra's funeral compared to Abigail, and Xander would be more at ease that way.Xander knew that if this was not sorted out, the elders in the family would worry, so he could only leave. "Grandma, there'll be a crowd coming to pay respects to Grandma Cassandra, and Abigail will definitely be overwhelmed. Get some other people

Benjamin and Clara were in the living room helping Abigail greet guests who had come to remember Cassandra.Meanwhile, Jodie went into the kitchen to help. Seeing her daughter, Melody, busily helping in the kitchen, Jodie was pleased. "You're growing up," she said.Melody answered, "Well, I'm almost old enough to get married, aren't I? How could I not grow up?"Jodie asked, "Didn't that man come back to North Florivera with you?"Melody said, "He came back with us, but we didn't have time to entertain him, so we decided to have him come over after Caterpie's grandma's affairs are taken care of."Jodie was satisfied. "Hmm. You're becoming more responsible."Melody teased, "I'm mature, but what about you? Are those two still freeloading at our house?"Jodie replied, "After that unpleasant incident at Easter, I told your dad that if he lets them
