"I told you not to come. Why are you so desperate?" asked Abby as she and Zac sat on the shore enjoying the cool but warm afternoon air. "I wanted to be alone. This relationship makes me feel different."

"Don't you like our relationship?" urged Zac, unsatisfied with Abby's attitude towards him lately. Abby seemed trying to keep her distance, and he had to know why.

Abby shook her head. "I don't know, Zac. You should have understood me well enough all along. I've never had an intense relationship with anyone. Just best friends, never a boy. I feel so awkward."

"Then let's get used to it. Abby, humans are bound to experience different phases in life. And we have to experience that. Think of it as a phase of your life where you have to accept someone into your life."

"Is this a form of coercion?"

"I'm not coercing. Just giving you a look so that you don't feel that our relationship is a burden."

"We used to be partners."

    Abby and Gin have not spoken to each other since the fight between them. They were doing their job as coworkers, and the conversation was about everything related to the stock market today.The two of them were in a room with several people from the board of directors, but Zac was nowhere to be seen.Abby was okay with that because even though her company and Zac had formed a partnership, Zac still carried Emerson's name and had to stand at the forefront to lead.However, Abby was sure that this time, Zac would give in to her and let her have her way."So Gin and I have been negotiating. I'm going to split the funds for him and a few other people. You will get a chance to purchase one share, and make sure you make the best purchase on behalf of JA Company. You are not allowed to purchase personally. Have you thought about which company you will target?""We have prepared it, and we have attached it to the proposal. It's just that there is little doubt about the company chosen by Mr. G

    "Abby, are you okay, kiddo? I heard you lost again in the stock market," said a man talking to Abby, who was struggling with her work.She was a little rushed after spending the night with Zac, and last night was the first time she made love to the man who had officially become her lover with pent-up anger—all this time, she had only sought pleasure, nothing more. There was never even any love.However, last night was completely different. Unfortunately, Zac saw Abby's inner turmoil as an overwhelming passion that made him burn with desire and do it repeatedly.She was tired now. Her energy was drained."Damn Emerson!" Abby swore softly before responding to the man on the other line. "I'm fine, Uncle. Losing sucks, especially since he's my fiancé now. I hate him even more and want to end it right now.""So you're still planning that revenge?" Alex asked incredulously. He didn't like his niece and Zac's relationship, but he would accept it if Abby loved him. "Please stop it, Abby. I do

    Abby's cell phone rang just as she stepped into Zac's apartment. Zac helped her out of her coat and got busy getting everything ready. She quickly headed to the balcony to take the call while enjoying the night view from up high."Hey, Al. What's up? Why are you calling so late?" Abby asked with a smile, feeling good about teasing her best friend, who was snickering on the other line."No kidding. I know you were at his apartment, right? What were you doing there, Abby?""Hey... what's going on? Why has my masculine and ignorant best friend turned so caring and chatty like my uncle?" Abby teased. "Did you forget that this guy and I are engaged? You need to get used to it.""Abby, this is dangerous. If you keep seeing each other, you might fall in love with him. Have you forgotten your grudge? If you have, by all means, don't do it and go back into Ashton's arms.""You're starting to make no sense. You know, I have a goal. He has beaten me in the stock market, and I can't accept that.

    Abby froze instantly when she heard Zac's words, which seemed to be intended to harass her because he knew many things and even planned to destroy her. However, Abby still tried not to be affected and asked everything in a tone that she made as calm as possible."What do you mean, Zac? Is someone trying to do something bad to you?" asked Abby, who, although she wanted to avoid Zac's probing gaze, forced herself to look at the grey eyes of the man in front of her who was still holding her close."Do you think businessmen like us are safe from enemies, Abby? If you do, really, you're very innocent.""Oh, ah... well, I know now. Do you intend to accuse me?" Abby asked again. This time, she pulled out the intimidation move that always brought Zac to his knees.The move never failed to manipulate Zac; even that second, the man looked down and stroked Abby's cheek."Of course not, baby. Do you have to do that to me—I mean, stab me in the back? If it makes you happy, do it, Abby. All I ask i

    Revenge can change everything. That was true. Even Abby, who previously had high self-esteem, never wanting anything if it wasn't for her efforts, changed one hundred and eighty degrees.Zac's gift was even more than great, if she may say so. The shares of a big company she had been eyeing for a long time were now written in her name. So easy.She only needed to use her beauty, charm, and love spell to get it all.Abby smiled as she looked at the file on her desk until someone walked in and, without permission, immediately grabbed the sheet, realizing something was wrong with her."You managed to get these shares?" the man asked with a frown. He clearly couldn't believe it because he knew very well that Abby had lost in the stock exchange some time ago. So, where did she get those securities?"You can see for yourself.""How is that possible? You lost, Abby.""Gin, what's wrong with you? You should be happy that your sister managed to get those valuable files. Instead of being snappy

    A glimmer of light shone through the gap in the curtain, making a man mumble. He tried to cover his eyes, which were bothered by the glare. "Abby, close the window! You're disturbing my sleep," he muttered before realizing that the atmosphere and even the temperature in the room were different from his own. The man opened his eyes and found himself on a white bed, without a single piece of clothing, and next to him, a girl sleeping in a similar condition. Gin stirred and was about to get out of bed, especially after remembering what happened last night. He wasn't drunk; he should have been able to resist when the girl climbed on top of him and started fucking him. However, the demon in him said otherwise. The temptation was so strong that he foolishly fell into it. "Are you leaving?" asked the girl who had woken up earlier and noticed the movement at her side. She seemed no stranger to such things—spending a night making love to a random man and waking up in much better

    "What are you doing here, Abby? And why are you taking me away? I have to tell Monica first so that she doesn't come looking for me," said Gin, who did not accept Abby's attitude and immediately pulled him out of the shopping center, while Alice, who had just finished paying for all their purchases, just stood still watching the showdown between the two."You don't need to ask permission or say goodbye, Gin. Come home with me. Now."Abby pushed Gin into his car and asked Alice to take her car. They left the shopping center still fighting."You know what? You've embarrassed me by treating me like a child, Abby.""I don't fucking care, Gin. All I have to do is protect you.""I don't need it. I'm an adult, and I'm a man. You should be the one I protect. Don't you realize that your behavior could endanger us all?""Oh, behavior? Which ones? Didn't I explain to you that everything I'm doing is for our family?

    Alice arrived at her apartment and quickly picked up her phone. Dozens of messages and missed calls were already lined up there. From Jude, who else? She was reluctant to deal with someone who could potentially interfere with her work, but Jude... he had what Alice needed. Some stability."Hey, sorry for ignoring your calls and messages. How are you?" Alice greeted, having no idea that the man on the other side was wearing a big smile when he heard from her."It's okay. I know you must be busy with your work for Abby. I'm good, and I miss you. How about you? Is everything going well? What about Abby's little brother?""Yes, thank God things are going well, although I can't say the search is over yet. New tasks are always ahead. And I still can't stop watching Abby and Gin. You know, they need me.""I know.

    Two years later...Abby looked at her and Zac's wedding photo with tears still falling. It wasn't supposed to be this way. She should have left when she first realized she was pregnant or maybe when she first started to feel different vibes in her heart towards Zac.He was too naive to get entangled in Abby's false love, but even when he knew that, he remained unmoved and loved Abby and tried to forget the crime she committed.Zac was a kind-hearted man who was hurt and took things wrong. However, Abby was touched when her father-in-law returned after visiting him. What was that sad look on his face?"What did he say?" Abby asked, curious. It had been so many times that her father-in-law and Gin had come to visit Zac. They even asked many questions, such as whether the case he was facing could be suspended with some bail. However, Zac strongly rejected their intentions."I made a mistake after all. Abby was hurt because of me. So let me serve my sentence as it should be so that I will

    Right after her phone conversation with Ashton, Abby felt everything happened quickly. The next day, several police officers came to the Emerson family residence and revealed the evidence they had received regarding the case they had committed against the Anderson family.The only suspect, of course, was Amanda, while her daughter, Monica, was still unaccounted for and had disappeared into thin air.Gin read the headline news with a satisfied grin. Since the beginning, he had known many secrets about Alice, who turned out to be her aunt, then Ashton, who had been like a grim reaper for Amanda and Robert Marra, and Jude, who was the older brother of Tamara—Abby's assistant at the office.That was why they seemed to work together to avenge what had happened to James and Selena, and they became protectors for Abby and Gin.Abby couldn't believe how easily everything unfolded, and now it was time for her to tell Zac the truth.

    Abby was still bothered by what Garry had said at dinner. She would get her father's share of the business they had worked on, but that wasn't what she wanted.Luckily, Abby was still an intelligent woman who had foreseen everything she would face. She had recorded the conversation between herself and Garry, and repeatedly listening to it made her feelings worse.This morning, she had been in and out of the bathroom several times, vomiting up everything she ate. Even when there was nothing else she could spit out, the nausea she felt intensified.She became suspicious of what she was feeling at the moment."Al, tell me honestly, did the doctors perform an abortion back then? Tell me if they removed the fetus?" Abby asked Alice who took the time to visit her. However, Alice chose not to say anything.As much as Abby hated Zac and the Emerson family, the fetus should not be victimized."Do you want to hear my words?""Alice, I'm not in the mood to negotiate.""No, you're not.

    Abby and Zac were already in the dining room with Garry, but she didn't see Amanda anywhere. Abby decided to search but didn't want to show everyone that she wanted to know how Amanda was after finding out her daughter was missing."What the hell did you guys do to eliminate those rats? Now I've lost track of my daughter." The woman sobbed. "By all means, search and find my daughter. I don't care about Sidney. I only want Monica. Are you listening!?"Abby had heard enough. Not from the beginning, but the snippets of conversation between Amanda and whoever was on the phone made her think.It was true that Alice had said that Amanda was the one who was being deceitful. She wanted to have everything and didn't even care about others. Everything was only about her. So, how did Garry deal with it all?How could he endure all this time living with a woman who didn't love him? Even behind his back, Amanda betrayed him and made him a target to get what she wanted.Did Garry do that on purpose

    "Are you busy today? Mom and Dad asked us to come over for dinner. But if you don't want to, it's fine if we don't come," Zac said as he shaved while Abby cleaned up his work clothes that had just been washed.Something she'd never done before—cleaning up after herself. Even though several servants were ready to help or do everything for her, for now, she felt like doing everything, even taking care of Zac's needs at home and work.Abby's movements stopped when she heard Zac's words. Instantly, she remembered what happened on her wedding day. She shouldn't have been afraid and asked Garry what made him so sure of his words. It could be that this was her chance.The other thing that makes Abby do it is Gin's statement, which says everything that happened to their family resulted from Sidney's father, Robert Marra. If that was true, then what role did Garry play? That was what she needed to find out.One way was to get close to the head of the Emerson family."Okay, no problem. We'll go

    Alice was relieved she had good instincts, especially regarding her best friend. If not, who knew what would have happened to Abby by now? It could be worse than this. She felt terrible when she learned that Abby had asked her to take her to a suspicious location. She had heard many things about the district. High crime, looting, robbery, even murder. Another one that worried Alice was the high abortion rate.Abby probably wouldn't do it, but what if she did?Alice followed where her friend was going, and when she entered a secluded alley, she knew her instincts were right. She was now pointing a gun at men dressed as doctors and medical staff—Alice wasn't sure if they were actually in the profession. There was no way a doctor would sully his title for the immoral deeds they were doing now."I'm Detective Denver. Let her go, or I'll take you to jail," Alice said firmly, gun in hand. The others raised their hands, allowing the convincing-looking woman to take Abby away.Alice left no

    According to some, including Zac, everything was going well, and he was living a beautiful and passionate married life. However, he had no idea that a time bomb was about to explode. He only envisioned a life of love with Abby, who showed the same towards him.For Zac, Abby's attitude was getting better, and Abby didn't understand what she was going through. She became very attached to Zac and was reluctant to let him go to work or the slightest distance so that she would sulk."Al, do you know what I'm experiencing is very strange? How is it possible, who has been reluctant to get close to Zac except to attract attention and ensnare him with a love trap so that he falls into my trap for revenge, now everything seems to be reversed? I hate being apart from him." Abby wrung her hair in frustration while at the office and received a visit from her best friend. "Is there something wrong with me?"Alice held her chin and looked thoughtful. She had never experienced the same thing; even th

    A fierce duel was inevitable between Jude and the man standing guard, along with some of the men who eventually moved to all sides to confront Jude's friend, who had managed to fend off the criminals attacking them outside."Jude, come in; I'll deal with them. Save Alice!" commanded one of them, who seemed to be the most elegant among the others and had been trying to block the attack on Jude.This time, however, the gang's boss would not let Jude go. He insisted the man stay there to fight the last drop of blood. Jude didn't mind doing that and still faced him, but his friend didn't let that happen. Again, Jude protected his position so he could immediately enter the room where Alice was. He managed to break down the door, which was already rickety and saw Alice trying to free herself by scraping the broken glass on the rope that bound her. Instead of breaking the rope, it was her hand that was scratched by the object, and she was helpless except to grimace in pain as the blood con

    Not many expected this, including Gin when one of Zac's confidants, who he said was one of the men he could rely on to help find Alice, was a familiar face to the Genovhia family.Gin's eyes almost glazed over as the man entered the room and removed the distinctive brown hat and coat he always wore, even when meeting Abby."Mr. Thompson?" muttered Gin, still unable to believe what he saw. Did this mean the man had betrayed his sister?"Hi, Young Master Genovhia," the man greeted when he saw Gin in the room with the others. Gin was the only one he recognized, so to the others, he only bowed slightly. "What can I do for you, Mr. Emerson?"The man was immediately quick to ask the task Zac was going to give him. Meanwhile, Gin, who felt trapped in this, immediately grabbed the shirt collar of the man who had not yet sat in his chair and dragged him out of the room regardless of his brother-in-law's call.He was on the verge of throwing a punch if Mr. Thompson didn't stop him immediately.
