Third POV***"Where were you when I was drugged and helpless? What gives you the right to talk to me in that manner? Do you have any idea how hard it was for me to live all through those years? But no, you don't and yet you open your stinking mouth to talk about how I ended up being a slut." Abigail said with flared nostrils, her breathing pace increasing as she spoke.All he ever did was find ways to make fun of her. He was never there even when she needed him the most, he treated her like she was some piece of shit and yet he dared to accuse her.The stinging pain he felt on his cheek made him hit his car in anger with his fist, no one dared to raise their hand at him, not even his biological mother.Yet, she was bold enough to do that, Ethan's eyes turned dark, he was almost ready to pounce on her but he controlled himself.She had hurt his ego, he didn't want to ruin his reputation so he decided to let it go, but only for that day.He will find a way to get back to her later and
Third POV***"Take a seat my son" Ethan's mother's eyes widened as she caught sight of him entering the grand dining hall. Dressed in a crisp and stylish suit, he was the picture of sophistication. Her heart swelled with pride as she watched him approach the table with a confident stride.Ashley the little girl, always celebrated her birthday in the Brundeen family mansion, it was a way to get the family together. The grand Brundeen family mansion was the perfect setting for such gatherings, with its sweeping staircases, crystal chandeliers, and lush gardens. The family members were seated at the long dining table. Kate was scared that her son, Ethan would miss his little sister's birthday.So seeing him made her extremely happy. To her, he was still her little boy and will always be."Big bro" Ashley sprinted towards Ethan, leaping into his arms and clinging to him tightly. Ethan wrapped his arms around her, lifting her off the ground as he hugged her back. Finally, he set her do
Third POV***Henry arrived back home, He went up the stairs and made his way to Audrey's room.The door creaked open, he saw that he was asleep. A calm lullaby was playing from something that looked to be an audio player.Henry's eyes landed on the stars that appeared on the ceiling, it was one of those glow-in- the dark and they made the little boy's room look peaceful.He refrained from touching Audrey as he was scared of waking him up, instead, he placed a kiss on the forehead.He walked towards the door and shut it close, making sure to not disturb the little boy's sleep.After spending some time in Audrey's room, he decided that it was time to take a good night's rest.When he got to his room, he walked closer to the bedside only to see Abigail snoring quietly which made him chuckle.She was cute even while sleeping, Henry walked over and bent to give her a warm kiss on her lips.It was currently 1 am in the morning and he expected her to be asleep.Now that they were sharing a
Abigail's POV***The purple emerald chain glittered in the light. My hands traced the delicate links of the purple emerald chain, each one holding a small, glistening gem. I felt him draw me close, his arms wrapped around my waist. A warm breath tickled my shoulder, His head resting on my neck.We stood there in silence, our bodies close. Suddenly, I heard a whisper in my ear, so soft and low that it was barely audible. "Do you like it?"I nodded my head in response, grinning sheepishly as I felt butterflies in my stomach, it wasn't the first time that we were this close to each other."It's beautiful " I finally said while admiring my reflection in the mirror."Just like you"My cheeks flushed with color as I caught sight of myself in the mirror, realizing he could probably see the evidence of my shyness. I watched as a smile slowly spread across his face, and he winked playfully. "You are good with words Henry" I winked back at him and I saw him flash a devilish smirk.I stood st
Third POV***Despite the fact that her boss was now her boyfriend, Abigail didn't want to take advantage of their relationship and risk being late for work. She quickly changed into a knee-length dress, wanting to make sure she looked presentable. Meanwhile, Henry also dressed in a casual jean and a blue tank top.The fabric of the tank top was soft and stretchy, hugging his toned physique and accentuating his toned muscles and fair skin. "Are you planning to go to the company dressed like that?" Abigail asked, slightly embarrassed, Her gaze fell on his defined muscles, tracing the lines of his chest and biceps. Those were the features that could make a woman go crazy.As she stared at his muscular arms, she felt a surge of jealousy. The last thing she wanted was for him to go to the office in such a revealing shirt. Henry followed her gaze, he smirked smugly and said, "Don't worry about this honey, I'm your man."His response made Abigail cover her face with her hand, especially
Third POV***"Aunty, he isn't treating me right. It's not fair for him to disregard me like I didn't matter to him, I'm still his childhood friend."A younger blonde-haired woman paced angrily across the living room as she spat out her words in frustration.Kate shook her head in pity, a month had passed since her daughter's birthday celebration and Lisa had just arrived from Europe. It seemed like her absence had really destroyed the little relationship she had with Henry.Lisa tried to make it to Ashley's birthday celebration to surprise him since she knew he would attend but there was an emergency that she needed to attend to, so she waited a month more.After calling him severally, she found out that he had blocked her number and all her social media accounts."Yes you are his childhood friend, he wouldn't dare to do a thing like that, he must have made a mistake. You should just wait patiently, I'm sure it was an honest mistake." Kate placed her hands on Lisa's shoulders, her to
Abigail's POV***"Who is she?" I thought to myself as I saw a blonde-haired woman in the living room, she didn't seem to notice me, maybe it was because she was so engrossed in her phone.The growl of my empty stomach jolted me back to reality, the hunger pangs reminding me of the reason why I was here. I wanted to prepare my own snack rather than impose on the kitchen staffs. They were already working hard, and I did not want to add to their burden. "Maybe she is a guest," I said to myself and decided to go straight to the kitchen, Henry warned me not to speak to any strangers that I found in his home unless he told me to.And she was a stranger so I turned my back on the stranger and walked away, my footsteps echoing in the marble-floored hallway."Stop right there! Didn't you notice my presence?" The woman asked, her voice a bit harsh.I turned back to look at her, noticing her hazel eyes and incredibly large breasts that didn't seem to complement her frail body figure.My eyebr
Abigail's POV***"Oh Henry, look what she did to me." Sobbing uncontrollably, she collapsed to the floor, clutching her cheeks in anguish.My eyes darted between Henry and the strange blonde-haired witch, I wondered what she was up to.A moment ago, she had been ready to strike me with all her might, her rage boiling over like a simmering pot. Now, she lay on the floor in a heap, crying as if her heart had been broken. The tables had turned, and I was left wondering what had caused such a drastic shift. "I never laid a finger on you. Stop putting on this act and get off the floor. You're only making yourself look foolish by lying so blatantly!" I spat out the words, praying that Henry would see through her charade. Her sobs escalated to a deafening pitch, and she looked at Henry with tear-filled eyes, like a lost puppy pleading for rescue. "It's unbelievable what this ridiculous woman did to me. I was only trying to show her some affection, to place a gentle hand on her shoulder.
Abigail's POV *** Thirty minutes had passed since Ethan's death and I couldn't stop my body from shaking. Henry stood by my side, his hands wrapped around my shoulder in a comforting way. "He is dead?" I asked in a whisper even though I knew the answer. Henry pulled me closer and placed a kiss on my forehead. I saw them wrap Ethan up into a black big plastic bag and I confirmed it to be true. What other evidence do I need? Ethan was dead and I would never see him anymore. He died because he was trying to save me, how can I ever forget that? I sniffed back my tears and stared at the street filled with reporters. "Henry Brundeen!" Grandfather Brundeen called with a snort and my gaze traveled to look at him. The rest of the Brundeen family followed him, their eyes swollen. "Your beloved cousin is dead and you care to comfort the woman who had gotten him killed in the first place." Grandfather Brundeen's words were like a knife and they pierced through my heart. "Abigail is
Third POV***The next day in the morning, due to the drama from last night, Abigail couldn't have enough sleep and so she paraded around the mansion.Henry was fast asleep and she didn't want to disturb him.Her presence was needed in the station and so she decided to leave on her own.Abigail was wearing a simple dress with little to no make-up.She decided not to disturb Henry, after all, they only needed her presence in the station and not anyone else.A driver in the mansion offered to drive Abigail and she accepted, especially since Henry had warned them to never let Abigail outside on her own again.Abigail would have preferred if Adonis drove her instead but Henry had given him a short break.Soon they got to the station and Abigail walked into the big building."You, what are you doing here?" Mrs Williams legs and arms were in chains but when she caught sight of Abigail, her blood boiled.The officers had told her that the CEO of Zeng company would be coming to see her, so wh
Third POV***Three days passed, and Abigail finally received her pregnancy test results from the doctor. The news was in, and it was official—Abigail was expecting.It was said that she was three weeks pregnant, and news of her pregnancy quickly spread throughout the mansion. Henry decided that he would break the news to his family and also have a little party to celebrate the arrival of their unborn child.They all sat around a huge table. All members of the Brundeen family were present except grandfather Brundeen who had solely refused to attend.The Williams were also present, Henry felt like their presence was needed also.Kate was sitting at the table, her eyes eagerly searching for something on Abigail's body.The news of Henry's proposal went viral and they had been struggling to grasp the reality.And so they decided to come see if it was true.Kate, who had never liked Abigail, was the first to speak, her tone calm and quiet."Abigail, your face is looking really pale."

After spending some minutes in the cinema and watching real movies, they decided that it was time to see the surprise that Henry had prepared for Abigail.Abigail didn't know what the surprise was all about.They were on the rooftop and it was quite dark, she found it hard to make out anything on the roof.Henry squeezed her hands lightly and she stared at him with affection.Minutes passed and she wanted what he had prepared for her.She could hardly contain her excitement and she looked around.Soon, sparks went flying in the air and at first, it came as a shock, she placed her head on Henry's chest, shivering with fear.Henry wrapped his arms around her, he never expected her to react the way she did.He thought that women liked fireworks.This was all Zayn's idea. He decided that he would make sure to scold Zayn after this."It's just a firework, Abigail." Henry whispered softly into her ear, biting her earlobe a little as he teased her.Abigail shook her head, wanting to stay in

Third POV***Abigail's stomach felt filled up and she stared at Henry, a chocolate stain smeared close to her lip.She hadn't taken notice of it and so she continued biting the huge chocolate stick.Henry then thought of an idea, he grinned maniacally and then said in a cold voice."Look over there, Abi" Abigail turned to look at the direction he pointed at, her brows knitted together as she saw absolutely nothing, just the people going on with their normal activities.The children jumping and playing and the cars moving along the road.Before she could turn back to look at him, she felt his warm tongue on her cheek, sulking it up like he was about to eat her face.Abigail was stunned, she stood there, unable to move. What had he just done?Henry licked them off with his lips seductively and then moved away from her. Making sure to relish the taste in his mouth.It seemed like Abigail's face added a special charm to the chocolate and made it even more sweet.Henry had never been a fa
Abigail's POV***I rubbed my nose and sniffed back the tears that welled up in my eyes. My heart felt heavy and I found it hard to even swallow the invincible lump in my throat.Lately, I have been feeling emotional and I couldn't quite place why.There was just this feeling of emptiness. What was making me feel that way? I had zero idea.My reflection in the mirror made me almost puke and I stared away. The dark circles under my eyes were so visible and it made me want to burst into another round of tears. Would Henry continue to love me?He must probably hate my new attitude.With a frown on my face, I walked out of the room and I was about to lay on the bed when a tall figure collided with my face, making me halt my step."Ouch" I pouted and touched my head, my eyes looking up to see Henry with a wide grin on his face.He was wearing a casual hoodie and a pair of joggers. But it wasn't just a casual hoodie, it had some romantic designs on it and judging by the material, one cou
The director had an evil smile on his face. He stood up and creeped around behind Lisa. She was nervous as hell, her fingers twitching, ready to grab her pepper spray if he got too close.His hands caressed the strap of her clothes.Lisa, realizing what was going on, stood up immediately, her eyes blazing with fire."What are you doing?""C'mon Lisa, you know what I mean. Don't expect me to spell it out" The director said casually, rolling his eyes as he saw Lisa make a fuss about it."If this is what you are planning to do then I'm not going to sit here and let you lay your filthy hands on me." Lisa's eyes were already crimson red.She found it disgusting to know that an ugly man like the director of the Han group was proposing to have a relationship with her.Lisa wasn't that desperate to beg for a role. She would rather walk out and never look back.Grabbing her purse from the table, she proceeded to leave but she felt a strong grip on her hand before she could take the next step.
Henry pulled Abigail in close, wrapping her up in a warm hug. His fingers grazed softly across her face, lingering over her features with a tenderness that showed how much he cared about her. Abigail's eyes fluttered open, her body feeling weak all of a sudden.She even found it difficult to stand on her own, her breathing increasing."I will go get my phone. I need to call a doctor." Panic was written all over Henry's face as he stared at her pale skin.He was about to lay her gently on the ground when she held his hand gently.Henry's gaze dropped from Abigail's face, his eyes narrowing as he focused on her hand. "Don't go Henry, I'm okay. It's just an exercise. I'm just tired, that's all." Abigail said with a reassuring smile.She struggled to sit up, wiping the sweat that was on her face with her palms.Managing to fake a smile, she tried convincing him, hoping to put his mind at rest.Henry wasn't sure if this was a good idea. He knew that she needed to see a doctor."I...I"He
