Abigail's POV *** "Snow!" I called out again, my voice hoarse as I struggled to catch my breath. My fluffy little cutie was really trying hard to make me go after him, yes he was a male. Snow came to an abrupt stop, he turned to look at me and I saw him lying quietly on the floor. "Are you ready to stop running?" I said, grinning as I approached him. I gently stroked the soft fur of his back, my fingers sinking into the plush white coat. He was very warm and fluffy also. I smiled down at Snow, my heart melting as I gazed at his fuzzy little face. "You're such a good boy," I murmured, my voice thick with emotion. I held him close as I walked into the kitchen, feeling a sense of relief that he was safe in my arms and partly because I didn't have the strength to run after him again. As I walked towards the main kitchen, I heard sobs from the room, the sobs grew louder and I stopped to listen. It was safe to call it eavesdropping. I stood beside the door and placed my head near it
Abigail's POV***"He is really cute, Miss Abigail." I heard her say and I nodded my head with my gaze still fixed on the paper.Slowly, I bent my knees and reached down to grasp the crumpled sheet of paper with my outstretched hand. Straightening up, I unfolded the paper and smoothed out the wrinkles with my other hand. The letters on the paper were a bit easy to understand, and I took a moment to read the words."Get ready to pay with your life and Abigail's."My forehead creased as I struggled to understand the words that sounded more like a threat.With my eyes still fixed on the page, I took a step towards Aria, my shoes thudding softly against the polished floor. I barely registered the sharp intake of breath from a maid standing nearby."What's the meaning of this?" I growled through clenched teeth, throwing the paper in her direction. Aria looked like she had just seen a ghost, her face turning as white as her shirt.Her eyes darted back and forth and I scoffed as I saw her
Abigail's POV***"You both did what?" I questioned angrily, my body vibrating from the shock.They bowed their heads down in shame and even though I felt the anger seeping through my veins, I decided not to say anything further.Instead, I turned and stormed out of the kitchen."Miss Abigail, we are really sorry. Please pardon us"Aria and the other woman whom I didn't know her name, ran to meet me and they were now standing in my presence, stopping me from moving further.I stopped in my tracks and stared daggers at them, giving them no room for explanation."Leave Aria, you have done some unforgivable things. Don't expect me to let you off the hook easily." I said with gritted teeth, controlling myself from losing my temper."Please just give us a chance to speak, we will explain everything to you. Please, Miss Abigail, forgive us."They both kneeled before me and I stared back at her with no expression on my face.It was hard to tell what I was thinking as I did not give room for
Third POV***Aria and Hazel exchanged nervous glances, they didn't know if telling her the truth would be the best solution.As far as they were concerned, they could lose their job and in return beg on the streets for food.That would make it easy for the loan sharks to get to them and their lives would be in danger.Aria felt her breath seize and even Hazel's face went ghostly pale. They both stared at Abigail, who was now holding a long whip in her hands.Ready to unleash it on them at any minute. She had a devilish smirk on her lips as she admired the long whip.Though she didn't know what it was doing in the room but she decided that she would ask Henry about it later. For now, she would use it on Aria and Hazel if they refused to cooperate with her."Are you ready to speak or are you not?" Abigail walked towards them, placing one of her legs on the bed and standing with the other. She leaned closer while resting her hands on her leg, making her exude a bossy Aura.This was a di
Third POV***Oh no, the young master was in the room, Aria and Hazel wished for the ground to swallow them.Their heart raced fast and they stood up from the bed in swift motion.Henry's lips pursed into a thin line as he stirred at them and then back at Abigail.He later figured out that Abigail must have been the one who invited them in.Even though he felt disgusted to see them in the room that belonged to him and Abigail, he kept his cool.If it wasn't for Abigail, he would have fired them on the spot but his beloved girlfriend was the one who let them into the room."Welcome...young master" they both greeted in unison, their palms sweaty as they dared not look at the young master in the eye.Meanwhile, Abigail didn't know the gravity of what she had just done, she was just excited to see Henry and couldn't wait to get into his arms.But with the maid around, she couldn't do that, so she said, "You can both leave"They both walked towards the door, bowing as they passed the young
Third POV***Henry was already on his way to the Rakoonas bar, it was as weird as its name itself.He had a facemask on, probably because he didn't want to get recognized especially in a bar filled with people.After getting the text from Tarvan, he didn't even wait for a minute before heading straight to the bar.Henry parked his car in a far distance and decided to walk towards the bar like a random person.The Rakoonas bar had got to be the worst he had ever seen, lacking quality and taste.There was a VVIP area in the bar, he paid the required money and they let him into the area.Henry sat down gently, his eyes scanning the shelves of liquor. He caught the bartender's attention, gesturing for a glass of wine. “A glass of Cabernet Sauvignon”As the bartender poured the crimson liquid, he studied the room around him. The soft murmur of conversation and R and-B music filled the air.He had chosen the least expensive wine he could find because he didn't want to attract too much att
Third POV***"Ten thousand dollars for the winner" Henry repeated again, watching the bewildered expression on their face.The white mask he wore was expressionless, but beneath it, his lips were stretched into a wide grin. Henry strode towards the empty chair and sank down into it, before leaning back and letting his body relax.The man who had just lost a bet against them shook his head in pity as he stared at the new man.He wanted to warm Henry but he decided not to.After losing a thousand dollars to them, he had already decided to never play against the loan sharks again.What was he even thinking? The loan sharks were known for their consistent success.But after seeing five thousand dollars as the price that would be given to the winner, he had decided to try his luck and he failed woefully.Meanwhile, Henry pushed the thick wad of cash across the center of the table.The gasp erupted from the crowd with their eyes fixed on the money."We have gotten a big fish, Asher”One o
Third POV***"It is-""Bingo!" Asher interrupted him, slamming his last card on the table with a smile of victory on his face.His men jumped up in pure joy and they praised Asher for his efforts while singing a song of victory.Though, Henry should be angry about his loss but instead, he had a huge grin on his face.'You won't enjoy this for long ' He thought and leaned back on his chair."No man dares to challenge Asher, he is the king of the loan sharks.""Yes, you have won again Asher, we hope that you will buy enough drinks for us as usual.""All hail Asher, the undefeatable king."Asher also seemed to be enjoying the praises as his mouth was curved into a huge grin.He knew that Henry was no match for him and yet he didn't know why he had gotten scared at the beginning.Luckily, he didn't let his fear show or he could have made his people think of him as weak.He brought the ten thousand dollars closer to himself and also the ten thousand that he had staked. Making a total of t
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." Kat
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
"You have shown me that true love is not just a fairy tale, but a reality that can be held in the palm of our hands.I can't begin to explain how I feel whenever I'm with you. You are my happiness and I can't afford to lose you Abi.My world revolves around you. Before I found out that you were the mother of our son, I loved you Abigail.I don't know how that was possible but I fell in love with you at first sight.As we stand at the edge of this new chapter, I know that there is no one else I would rather face it with than you. You are my partner, my soulmate, my best friend, and I cannot imagine a future without you.From the first moment we met Abigail...I knew that there was something special between us. A spark that was undeniable and irresistible. And as the months have passed, that spark has only grown into a flame that burns brighter than the stars.So, with a heart full of love and a soul full of hope, I ask you now to take this journey with me. To share your life with mine,
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
