"I'm not a coward."Abigail didn't take this environment seriously. She had been in much worse conditions before and was quite experienced.She was about to undo her seat belt when Ronan leaned in close to her, and his pleasant scent wafted over her. "Let me do it."At close range, Abigail found that his facial features were excellent, and even his skin was so delicate.Ronan lifted his gaze, and his deep eyes looked at her seriously, "Tell me when you have time.""Okay."Ronan got out of the car before her and opened the door for her. After she got out of the car, he hung the shoulder bag on her shoulder and then handed her the things he just bought."You can eat this when you're hungry at night."Abigail originally wanted to refuse, but when she saw his eyes, she reached out and took it.Unexpectedly...The next second...Her slender fingers accidentally brushed against Ronan's hand, and the soft touch made her heart skip a beat.A special feeling welled up inside her.Seeing her ta
As Ronan led his men carrying precious gifts, they laid them down and waited outside the door.Only Green remained standing next to Ronan, looking respectful and obedient."Mr. and Mrs. Baldwin, long time no see," Ronan said with his usual calm and reserved tone, even when greeting."Ronan, what brings you here today?" Lauryn was the first to react, noticing the gifts and beaming with an affectionate smile. "You shouldn't have brought so many gifts. It's too much trouble.""Ronan, come and sit down. Someone bring us another pot of tea," Kevin said, fondly welcoming him. "It's been a while since you last visited me since my youngest son left the country. Let's catch up tonight.""Have you had dinner, Ronan?""I already ate," Ronan replied with his usual polite and reserved demeanor."You've matured and become more stable since we last saw you," Lauryn said, admiring his height, appearance, and personal abilities. She couldn't help but think he was an exceptional young man, flawless in
"Grandpa wants to see you." Ronan's gaze fell on the girl across from him, his magnetic voice gentle and seductive, "When will you be free to go see him with me?""Abby, since Sir Lucero wants to see you, why not do it tomorrow?" Lauryn asked tentatively."If you don't want to go as my fiancée, you can represent the Baldwin family and show your concern," Ronan suggested, his dignified aura shining through even in retreat."That's a good idea!" Kevin was surprised at how clever Ronan was."That's right, you can show some concern on behalf of the Baldwin family..." Lauryn also echoed.Abigail thought to herself, "So no one asked her opinion?""So, Abigail, you'll go visit Sir Lucero tomorrow. You've been home for two days, and it's time to visit him."After all, when they proposed this marriage contract back then, Ronan's conditions were quite good.Now Ronan's grandfather was still hospitalized, and his situation seemed not quite good...As the younger generation, it was necessary to p
Ronan's lips curved into a faint smile, "You haven't approved my friend request yet.""Oh."Hearing what he said, Abigail suddenly remembered that there was such a thing, "I'll do it later."She had been so busy today that she had forgotten about it.Ronan's voice was as gentle as a stringed instrument, gently plucking at her heartstrings. "What time should I pick you up tomorrow?""Two o'clock in the afternoon."After all, she had other things to deal with."Where should we meet?""Uh... at my doorstep.""Okay, I'll be there on time."Just as Abigail was about to hang up, Ronan asked, "Don't you like chocolate-flavored cakes?"Abigail was confused."I noticed that you didn't eat any in the car."Abigail didn't expect this man to be so interested in her personal preferences, and said lightly, "I don't eat chocolate-flavored food very often."Ronan understood, "I'll buy you other flavors later."Abigail was speechless."You saved my grandpa, so it's only right that I get you some snack
Courtney thought to herself, "Without comparison, others wouldn't know how terrible Abigail is and how excellent I am!"Scarlet was right, let this countryside girl from a small place make a fool of herself. After all, Sir Lucero had dominated the business world for half his life and would never bother with someone like Abigail!!"I won't be having lunch today," Abigail instructed the servant as she made her way upstairs.Upon entering her room, she locked the door and went straight to sleep.She had been working on her drawings all night, and she was genuinely exhausted. As soon as her head hit the pillow, she fell into a deep slumber.After Kevin and Lauryn got up, they heard that the baby girl would not even eat lunch, so they hurriedly called the chef, "Was it because she didn't like breakfast?"The chef felt wrongly accused, "Abigail left her seat because of what Courtney said. It had nothing to do with breakfast.""Courtney?" Kevin and Lauryn were confused and asked, "What did C
In the ward, Sir Lucero had been eagerly anticipating the arrival of two people, and finally, they appeared before him."Grandpa, Abby, and I have come to visit you." Ronan's clear voice rang out.But Sir Lucero's gaze didn't stay on his grandson for a second. Instead, it was completely glued to the young girl beside him!"The little girl who saved me twice was you?"Sir Lucero didn't expect this girl to be so delicate and pretty. During their previous encounters, he hadn't had the chance to properly appreciate her appearance. But now, he couldn't help but notice her beautiful and otherworldly aura, and he could only think that Ronan was truly fortunate to have her."Nice to meet you, Sir Lucero," Abigail greeted him politely as she entered the room.Her demeanor was graceful and charming, and even though her cold and distant aura had diminished in the presence of the old man, her otherworldly presence still set her apart from others."Silly child, why are you calling me Sir Lucero? W
"You... you... you..."Sir Lucero felt as though he fell right into the trap Ronan set for him.Abigail's gaze shifted, her lips slightly curled. "No need for more medicine. You just can't drink alcohol after this.""Okay, I won't." Sir Lucero nodded, "Abby is right."Jaeden also nodded repeatedly, "Mrs. Lucero, I will keep an eye on Sir Lucero from now on."Abigail couldn't help but correct him lightly, "Just call me Abigail.""No, no, I couldn't possibly address you so informally!"Ronan's lips curled as he changed the subject. "If you and grandfather didn't conspire together, how come he can still drink alcohol?""I promise I won't make the same mistake again!""Oh, by the way!" Sir Lucero suddenly remembered something and pulled out a delicate wooden box. He opened it to reveal a beautiful crown necklace."This was Ronan's grandmother's favorite among all her dowry items... She said that if one day Ronan brought a girl to meet the family, he must give her this gift."The crown was
Just then, Abigail's cell phone vibrated a few times, and it was a call from Randy."Excuse me, I need to take this call." Abigail got up and walked out of the ward."Abby, I heard from someone downstairs that you came to the hospital?" Randy's voice came from the phone.Abigail hummed lightly, "What's the matter?""Madam Guzman woke up for a while today," Randy said softly, "Although it was only for a few minutes, she kept mentioning your name during that time.""She wanted to call you, but I stopped her.""You know how her condition is. If she gets too excited, it could be dangerous. I had to stop her."The person Vanessa cared about the most was Abigail. The first thing she did when she woke up was to care about Abigail's current situation.Even if Abigail didn't say what Elliott and Marlene were doing behind the scenes, just hearing her voice would surely make Vanessa weep...If she became too emotional, it could be fatal, and all the efforts made so far would be in vain."Are you
Ryker, Jimmy, and the other servants beside couldn't believe how skilled Ms. Abigail's medical skills were.All the doctors said it was impossible, but she dared to guarantee that she would recover within a month.Isn't she human, but a goddess?"The Lucero family is so lucky to have you as Ronan's wife..." Sergio became so overwhelmed with excitement that his eyes welled up with tears.Great, my spouse is finally saved!In less than a month, she would be able to talk to him and accompany him for walks just like before!This was something he wouldn't even dare to dream about.The sudden joy overwhelmed Sergio, and he bent down in gratitude, "Let me thank you on behalf of your grandmother first...""Grandpa, you were too polite," Abigail hurriedly reached out to support him.In Abigail's perception, she merely did a trivial task that was not worth mentioning...But for the Lucero family, it was a lifesaving grace a
Before the red light, Abigail stopped the car and turned on her phone."Boss, this is a photo sent by the other party. Take a look and see if it's the real deal."Abigail opened the picture and indeed saw Licorice and Purple Lotus Root.Regardless of their appearance, color, pattern, or root structure, both of these items can be determined to be genuine."Give me the location.""Boss, are these really authentic? The other party is so amazing, they were able to find these two treasures so quickly. We searched for a full three months and couldn't find them! We were originally worried that they would deceive us with fakes..."I didn't expect it to be true!"They wanted you to wait for them at Peach Grove in the outskirts, where there was a small pavilion."Abigail replied with an OK, and just as the traffic light turned green, she stepped on the gas and arrived at the agreed-upon location.To deceive others, she parked the
A while passed.The chef prepared the delicious food, and Ronan personally brought it to her. "Can't sleep?""Hmm..." Abigail was surprised to see him carrying two large trays. "Do you usually eat in your room?""No," Ronan placed the tray on the table and said gently, "But I'm willing to make an exception for you with all my habits. Wait for me a moment, there are still some downstairs, I'll go get them."Abigail saw him leaving the bedroom and felt a warmth in her heart.Outside the window, Crescent Lake shimmered in the sunlight, endless daisies swayed in the wind. Abigail stepped onto the balcony, admiring the breathtaking scenery and feeling the cool breeze.Ronan walked over with two large trays, his tall and handsome figure exuding indulgence and doting as he looked at Abigail."Have your meal here," Abigail gestured towards the table on the balcony, "The view is nice here.""Okay," Ronan put down the things and pulled o
Ronan was even more curious about her identity when he realized that Abigail had even encrypted her phone calls.Out of respect, Ronan did not answer the call for her, nor did he hang up, but let the other person ring for a while before ending it himself.He placed his phone on the bedside table, gently covering Abigail with a blanket, and leaned down to give her a tender kiss.She looked beautiful when she was asleep, like a princess in a fairy tale, with long, curly eyelashes, a straight and elegant nose, and luscious, tempting lips.He couldn't help but bend down and give her a gentle kiss.Just at that moment, the phone vibrated again.It was a WhatsApp message sent by someone else to her.Ronan glanced unintentionally and saw several WhatsApp messages appearing on the screen."Ms. Abigail, the monthly report of Alana Designs has been sent to your email.""The recently launched jewelry collection has received an exce
In a luxurious cabin.Ronan held Abigail on his lap, gently stroking her soft hair with his chin, "How many identities do you still have that I don't know about?"Abigail averted her gaze slightly, not much though, even though she couldn't count the number of hands she had..."Was it because of your grandmother's condition that you wanted to get the Purple Ginseng?" Ronan glanced down at the girl in his arms and asked softly, "Did you know her condition was deteriorating, and she only had a few days left when you took her pulse that day?""Um.""Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Ronan scrutinized her eyes. "Or was it that you had already decided to come to Secret Delta alone to find Purple Ginseng at that time? Who told you that this thing could save Grandma's life?""I also read it in a medical book a long time ago..."As for whether it could be cured or not, it would depend on the grandmother's own physical condition."Secret
"Didn't Mr. Harrell say that the previous price doesn't count and asked me to make a new offer?" Abigail casually spoke, "What's the matter, does Mr. Harrell want to go back on his word?""You..." Leonard was instantly speechless."The gang leader, has no credibility at all?"Leonard suddenly realized something, "You, you two know each other? Trying to deceive me into selling Purple Ginseng at a low price? The big R Gang and A Gang colluding with each other just to take advantage of others? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by others if this gets out?""Seems like Mr. Harrell wants to back out?" Ronan asked skeptically."Repent, then repent!"Billions of dollars, and trust, he chose the former!One of the henchmen beside Leonard leaned in and whispered, "Mr. Harrell, there are R Gang members outside, let's be polite..."Leonard naturally knew the power of R Gang, so he suppressed his anger for the time being and said in a fr
Abigail brought Reuben to the backstage of the auction, where there was only one long table. The man sitting in the middle was Leonard Harrell, the leader of the Wolf Gang.Leonard had a mixed-race face, when he smiled, the smile didn't reach his eyes, it was cold and sinister."I never expected the leader of A Gang to be a girl. Interesting, truly interesting."He gazed into Abigail's eyes, smiling with an extraordinary infatuation, "Seems like a beauty unparalleled in the mortal world."Just these clear and bright eyes alone were already captivating.I don't know how enchanting it would be to take off the mask...Reuben wished he could dig out his lecherous eyeballs. If it weren't for the boss's single-minded desire for Purple Ginseng, he would have already pulled out his knife and stabbed it into this guy's eye sockets!Abigail hooked her long legs and pulled the chair over, sitting down confidently. "It seems like buyer number one
Next, the auction featured several eye-catching items.By the time the climax appeared, it had already been half an hour.Abigail had just finished a game match when she looked up and heard Reuben say, "Hey, hey, Purple Ginseng is on the field! Come over quickly, come and see!"His gaze fell upon the beauty queen dressed in revealing attire.This figure is so hot!The etiquette lady held something that looked like ginseng and placed it in an expensive wooden box. Facing the camera, she showed it to everyone."Starting bid of 30 million!"Reuben knew that the boss was going to bid on this treasure, so he quickly pressed the button several times, totaling thirty million.The other private rooms were all amazed by the extravagance of the buyer on the third floor. He immediately bid 120 million, it seems that this buyer on the third floor has a strong background and is determined to win this little thing!Abigail glanced at
Southbridge Auction.Abigail checked the information and entered compartment number 3 with Reuben. After a while, someone reported their whereabouts to the leader of the Wolf Gang."Mr. Harrell, the people from A Gang came! I never expected them to have the audacity to step into our territory. It's truly a case of finding something when least expected, and it didn't take any effort at all.""Have you read any books?" Mr. Harrell took a puff of his cigarette and slowly blew it onto his face. "Do you even know ancient poetry?""Hehe, sorry for my ignorance, I only attended a few years of primary school..." the subordinate said with a flattering smile, licking his face.Not finished yet...Mr. Harrell crushed the cigarette butt fiercely on top of his head and said, "I haven't read any books, so I hate it when people show off their knowledge in front of me!""Ah..." His body trembled in pain, but he dared not resist. Instead, he knelt dow
