Abigail’s action didn’t go unnoticed by Charles. He saw the large pink diamond ring on her ring finger. Then his eyes moved to her neck subconsciously to check if the necklace he gave was still there or not. But it was not there. It was replaced by a new golden chain. He pulled back his eyes and looked down at the file in his hands. A smile crept on his lips, but that was not a smile. He laughed at his own thought. What was he thinking? Did he really expect that she would wear it till now? Maybe she dumped it somewhere else and would never take it out for the rest of her life. He nodded in anticipation. Then he picked the intercom up to call Aidan. Just as he was about to press the button, he heard her ask, “Why did you leave the party so early last night?”

His hands froze in the air, and his eyes moved to her face instantaneously, only to meet her inquiring gaze. Alth

    Charles was stunned, and his jaw dropped automatically. He gawked at the departing figure of Aidan until he went out of his line of sight. He let out a chuckle with disbelief, looking in the direction from where Aidan exited the hall. An hour ago, he was disappointed, thinking that Aidan was not interested in that fashion show. But an hour later, Aidan just agreed to attend the show. Charles couldn’t believe it, but at the same time, he was happy. Now he would have to wait until Friday to know the truth.He pulled his phone out of his pocket and typed a message, ‘Hello, Miss Barrett. Mr. Thompson is attending the Wilkin’s Creations fashion show on Friday. You can come to the show.’After typing the message, he sent it to Erica. Then he grabbed the files and walked out of the hall.

    Abigail’s smile froze, and she dropped her hands instantly. She turned around to look back at him, utterly bewildered.“What?” Her eyebrows pulled together while staring at him suspiciously.Charles cracked a smile and approached her one step at a time. “Your face was flushed, and you looked tipsy. I thought you would feel refreshed if you get some fresh air. So I bring you here.”His tone was gentle, and it sounded like a melodious tune to her. She could hear him speaking all the time. He brought her here with this intention. She was happy to know that he cared about her. But still, a few questions arose in her mind. Why did he care for her? Was it because she was his boss’s fiancee or was there something else? She stared at him with confusion. She was eager to know w

    The sunlight illuminated the room brightly through the slit of the curtains. Abigail’s pretty face glowed with the golden light. Her eyeballs moved left and right rapidly. The skin between her eyebrows creased slightly, and she groaned. Covering her eyes with her hand, she opened her eyes slowly in a narrow squint. She was too sluggish to wake up. She didn’t sleep till late last night. Her sleep was not completed yet. Rolling on the other side, she pulled up the quilt to cover herself up to her head and went on sleeping. After a while, knocking on the door disturbed her sleep. She groaned and rolled on the other side.“Miss, Sir is calling you for breakfast.” The maid’s voice came out of the other side of the door.Abigail was irritated a little, but she still answered, “Okay, coming.”

    The presentation lasted almost an hour. Everyone in the hall applauded and gave a thumbs up. They all seemed satisfied with the new technology.Charles also clapped but he didn’t lift his head. There was a faint smile on his face but it looked so cold.Abigail stared at him, trying to figure out what he was thinking. She wondered how he could be so indifferent after sending so many apology messages to her. Shouldn’t he try to talk to her? Judging by his appearance, she thought he didn’t intend to talk to her. Were those apologies all fake? Or was he mad at her?“Hey, beautiful. That was great.” Aidan gave her a lateral hug, placing his hands across her shoulder.She came out of her trance and lowered her head im

    After an unknown span of time, Charles gradually regained his consciousness. He hissed with pain and tried to lift his hand. But he couldn’t move his hand a bit. He opened his eyes and found himself chained. His hands spread wide on both sides and chained on two pillars. His legs were chained as well with the same pillars. He squirmed to escape. The clanging sound of the iron chains resonated in the dimly lit room.“You are awake.” A deep familiar voice came not very far from him.Charles turned his head to look at the source of the voice and saw Aidan strolling towards him. One of his bodyguards pulled out a chair for him. Aidan sat on it, facing Charles, placing one leg over the other. His eyes were focused on him. There was a sinister smile on his face.Charles tried to break f

    Robert Mills tried to console her, but she didn’t listen to him at all.“This news is fake. He doesn’t have a gambling problem. He doesn’t owe any money to anyone.” She kept saying in a state of trance. Tears flowed down ceaselessly.“Abi, my princess, calm down.”He tried to hold her in his arms, but she pushed him away. “I want to be alone.”“Listen, Abi. I know you developed a bond with him in a short period of time. I am also sorry to learn that he is no longer with us, but we have to…”“He is not dead,” She exclaimed before he could finish speaking. “This news is not true. All are lying.” Her eyes were red b

Is he going to come out of the vegetative state?”“Yes, Mr. Reid.” The doctor replied calmly. “He is a fighter. He was in a terrible state when he was brought to the hospital. I was not sure if we could save him or not. But he is stronger than I thought. He fought against death. And now he is getting better. It’s not less than a miracle.” He cracked a smile.“No, Dr. Roy. I don’t believe in miracles. It’s you and your team’s efforts that my son’s condition is improving. I am indebted to you.”

He squatted beside her and grabbed her jaws tight, “Don’t show me your attitude. You are not in Reid’s mansion.”He turned her head to the door, “Your father is in that opposite room. Don’t you want to see him?”A vile smile appeared on his face, “Drink the water and I will take you to him. Or else, I will shoot him.”Abigail glared at him contemptuously.The smile on his fac
