Ch-47
Indeed, Rebecca joined the research center at the same time as Abigail. They both started working there for three years. And they both signed a contract with AG Agro group PVT LTD. And were best friends.
If Rebecca agrees….
“Abi, There is only one way that can get us out,” Samantha said.
“And the way is?” Abigail said.
“Before I say what’s the way. I want to know… would you be with Austin and go with him or not?” Samantha asked.
“How does that concerns?” Abigail said.
Ch-48 Rebecca settled down on the chair. She kept Maya in her lap as Maya couldn’t reach the cutlery on her own and she is just a baby. “Maya! Don’t touch! You are getting your hands dirty,” Rebecca chided. “Wuwuwuwu…. I want granma. Granma. Take me… Momma is shcary,” she said as she acted cutely. “Aunty, don’t fall for her. She used to do the same with Aunt Alicia too,” Rebecca said as she glared at Maya. That only made her cry more. “Reb, you are scaring the poor soul,” Samantha said. “Sammy, she is acting for the sake of that damned chicken drumstick. She wants that. So she is putting up all this drama and acting all shrewd like her stupid father!” Rebecca said. From yesterday, many things were happening she has no way to vent. And now… Maya was not listening this was making her a
Ch-49“So… Rebecca fits the criteria. And the presence of Maya would fill the hole on why President wants to hide her identity for so long. And as for what happened we can spin the story without creating any negative impact on Maya,” Samantha said.Ellie smiled a little when she heard her explanation. She wondered why she wasn’t considered as Abigail’s con. But now hearing to Samantha everything makes sense. If she were to join the research center before with her true identity maybe she would have a chance. Indeed… it’s not because she wasn’t close it’s because she was new, considered in the eyes of the public. A weight lifted from her chest now. She took a deep breathe to show how relieved she was.&l
Ch-50Three days later…“I don’t know what they are thinking. For the past four years, we never saw our President even for once. If I don’t see her now, I will sell my shares,” one person said.“Yes, she can’t even trust her people,” another one commented.“It’s like insulting us,” another added."I wonder a President like this would even suit to handle the enterprise," Mrs. Parkinson one of the board members said straightly. Even though people were surprised at her words but she was right at some point.The board room turned noisy. Just then
Ch-51“I shall be the one to meet you, Elder Wesley. But your visit is a surprise. Never thought that you would come and meet me personally,” Rebecca said as she watched the waiter pour wine in their glasses.“Mom, I want that red juice too,” Maya asked.“Give a small wine glass to her and pour some pomegranate juice for her,” Rebecca said. Andrew watched her as she gave instructions to the waiter. She neither denied her nor scolded her but did the things in her way.“Maya, the juice we are drinking is not for your age. When you grow older you can have it. But now drink this,” Rebecca said as she handed her pomegranate juice. Maya nodded.
Ch-52 “Austin, I have to say something,” Abigail said when they were about to enter the castle. “Yes?” he asked. “I am pregnant,” she said. “I know,” he said with a smile. “How?” she asked. “I saw the report,” he replied. “Then why didn’t you tell me?” she asked. “I am waiting for you to say to me,” Austin replied. She pouted. He laughed at her.
“Mr. Austin Parker, you never told me your family name. And even the existence of your columbine. Aren’t you afraid that I would be displeased when I find it after I am here?” she asked looking into his eyes. “I thought you would leave me,” he said looking down. “I guess I shall say that,” Abigail said looking at his rested hands on her waist. Austin noticed and removed them. He hated the fact that Abigail is judging him. She was his concubine. What’s with that? Can’t he have one? She was saying as if he committed a crime. And she didn’t fall! She is fine though! “You are fine, right? Why are you making a big deal?” he said frustratedly. “Do you really love me, Austin?” Abigail asked
Ch-54 Samantha was also caught off guard when she saw Abigail was being pulled. Before anyone could react, Abigail was raised in the air and floated. “Hmm… What an interesting situation? A future king can’t even be able to protect the future Queen and The future prince. Such a shame… I wonder how he could even take care of the people after he takes the throne,” A lazy voice resounded in the hall. Even though the voice was lazy and uninterested, it held a sense of domination, pride, power, and elegance. And his words held utter disrespect toward Austin. They even held a sort of disdain and disgust. Abigail wanted to turn her head and look at him but she couldn’t. She was still flying! She wondered who did this to her.
Ch-55“Miss, could you prepare a bath and a set of comfortable clothes for us to change and rest,” Samantha asked when the maid was about to leave.“Yes, my Lady. My Lady, you can call me Anna,” the maid said.“Anna, I will call you like that,” Samantha said.The maid bowed and left their chamber. Abigail was oddly silent. Samantha wanted to say something but said nothing. She maintained her silence. Samantha knew many things happened in the past two hours or so.On the day of arrival, they were welcomed with warmth, then love, then hatred, and then some mystery.
