Chapter 1011

Abigail was speaking with great emotion, so much that she said everything all at once. Yet, out of everything she said, Xander only heard the one sentence that mattered most to him - she said he was the only person she cared about. Relieved, he reached out to pat her head.He asked, "Do you really think I would care whether Raymond betrayed me or not?"Abigail became angrier, turning her head away, refusing to look at him. "I guess I'm just overreacting."Xander gently turned her face back toward him, compelling her to meet his gaze. "You're the only one I care about, Abigail."The unexpected declaration left Abigail at a loss for words. She blushed and averted her gaze, but Xander gently turned her face back toward him again. As he lowered his head, moving closer to her, Abigail assumed he was going to kiss her again and instinctively shut her eyes. Instead of the awaited kiss, however, she heard Xander's deep chuckle. Opening her eyes, Abigail gave him a reproachful look, her che

Mariah looked up, encountering intimidating eyes that made her momentarily forget to breathe, before finally falling silent.Deciding to ignore her words, Abigail pulled Xander along. "Are we going to pick up Lucia from Melody's apartment, or are we going to my place first?"Xander said, "I'll wait here. You go pick her up.""Okay," Abigail replied. "People here love to gossip. Just ignore them."Xander smiled. "Okay."After Abigail left, Xander quickly returned to Mariah's side. He looked at her and said with a mocking smile, "A few families from your neighborhood, the Prescotts, have moved out, haven't you heard?"A few days ago, the Prescott families hastily sold their houses at a low price and left as if they were fleeing. The neighborhood rumor was that because Elliot had done something wrong, the Prescotts felt ashamed and left North Florivera overnight.Mariah had always believed those rumors. However, the way Xander said it made her doubt if that was really the case. She

Abigail immediately realized that Xander must have intervened. It was the only explanation for the sudden change in attitude from someone who had been so hostile toward her."What did my husband say to you?"Mariah shook her head. "He didn't say anything."Abigail gave her a pointed look without saying a word. Feeling the weight of Abigail's silent scrutiny, Mariah began to feel guilty and, ultimately, spilled the beans."He just asked me if I wanted to move," Mariah said.Abigail asked, "Is that all?"Mariah continued, "Do you remember the Prescott families? A few days ago, they sold their houses for less than they're worth and quickly left North Florivera, saying they would never return. At first, like everyone else, I thought they left because Elliot was arrested, and they were too embarrassed to stay in North Florivera. But I just found out from your husband that he likely pulled some strings to force those families to sell their houses and leave North Florivera."At this po

'Two years ago, Nathan and I got married. Around the same time, someone paid to ruin my reputation. Could it be that this person knows Xander? This person might know Xander, wants to ruin him, and can make these evil plans happen. I can't think of anyone else but Nova who could do this.' Abigail then asked, "How did they get in touch with you?"Mariah said, "That person was very careful. They never called us, and each time we met, it was a different person in a place where no one could watch us. I still don't know what he looks like."Abigail asked, "Besides saying bad things about me, did that person ask you to do anything else?""No," Mariah replied.Abigail questioned further, "After Elliot was arrested, did that person contact you again?"Mariah shook her head and said, "No."Abigail said, "Alright. Give me your number. If he gets in touch with you again, you need to tell me."Mariah apologized, "I'm really sorry, Abigail. My husband is the only one who works in our family.

Xander smiled, but did not answer her question. "Let's go home."Abigail asked, "You're not planning to tell me?"Xander said, "I'm hungry. Can you cook something for me when we get back?"Since he was not talking, Abigail did not press further. "Let's go."Meanwhile, Nova's men had located Raymond again, taking him to the place Abigail and Xander had just left. The people who escorted Raymond were the same two who had taken Abigail away earlier, but they were much nicer to Raymond."Mr. Seabrook, Mr. Zane is waiting for you inside. Please follow us."Raymond followed them through a landscape of a fountain surrounded by rocks, eventually arriving at an elegantly arranged room filled with all kinds of delicious food.Nova greeted him with a smile. "I heard you didn't have a good lunch, Mr. Seabrook, so I prepared some dishes for you. I hope you like them."Raymond sat down across from Nova, expressionless. "I did as you asked. Where is Elisabeth?"Raymond was an orphan, raised

Nova said, "That woman is so protective of her man as if she's protecting something priceless. And you expect her to plead with her husband for you? You're probably dreaming."Raymond did not respond. He just lowered his head to take a few bites. He then drank a few glasses of alcohol. "If I were to work with you, what would you want me to do?"Nova replied, "Fight against Xander, of course. You've worked for him for so many years. You must have many things that I want."Raymond took the bottle of alcohol over and took a few sips. "I want to live! My life is valuable too. My life can only be controlled by myself."Nova asked, "What are you trying to say?"Raymond responded, "I'm willing to cooperate with you."Nova expected this answer. He was not surprised. "Okay. I hope we'll work well together."Raymond watched Nova extend his hand toward him. He then stiffly shook Nova's hand and said, "I just want to stay alive."Nova replied, "You can. As long as you want to."With Raym

Abigail was yelled at for no reason. She blinked and looked at Xander with an expression of being unfairly treated.When Xander saw her facial expression, he could not help but soften his voice. But he did not abandon his principle. "You need to listen to me on this."Abigail angrily looked away. She did not want to talk to him.Xander raised his hand to hold the back of her head as he said in his low, deep voice, "I know you can handle your matter on your own. But I still want to do something for you."If you refuse my help in everything, it'll make me feel like I'm useless to you. I'll feel like it doesn't matter if you have me or not."Abigail thought, 'It turns out that he has so many worries.'She had her worries too. She did not want to rely on him for everything. She did not want him to feel that she was a burden. That was why she wanted to handle some of the things on her own.Since they were on this topic, Abigail decided to express her thoughts, "You've already done a

Melody said, "Your husband is here. So, I'm not going in. I need to keep an appropriate distance from him."Abigail said, "You liked to look at his face in the past, didn't you? Why do you suddenly not want to be in the same space with him?"Melody replied, "My boyfriend gets jealous easily. Before he left North Florivera yesterday, he repeatedly told me not to look at other men."Abigail asked, "What's wrong with looking at other men? Who says having a boyfriend means you can't look at other men?"Melody said, "I used to think the same way. But he said he'd get jealous. He made a lot of points too. And I felt he was quite reasonable. And since I've decided to marry him, I should care about his feelings. In the future, I'll avoid unnecessary interactions with men."Abigail responded, "Mel, something doesn't feel right—"Before Abigail could finish talking, Melody interrupted, "All right. Let's not talk about it anymore. I'll leave now. Let me know if you need anything."After Ab

[1st September 1976Great weather.Dear Diary,Today marked the first day of the new school term. It was also the day I welcomed new students. Not far after I walked out of my home, I heard the cries of a baby. I followed the sound and saw a new backpack by the roadside. And there was an infant inside it.The baby was still very, very small. He seemed like a newborn baby. He was constantly crying, and his face turned red. He looked so pitiful.I looked around but I couldn't find his parents. Instead, I saw a note inside the backpack. The note stated the baby's birth date. The child was born on 31st July 1976, between 9 to 11 at night.Other than the details of the baby's birth, there was also a note with many words.It said: [I was unmarried when I gave birth.

[10th September 1976Sunny day.Dear Diary,I've been raising the child for ten days now. And it seems like he's already gotten used to me. He wouldn't cry as long as I held him. My husband and I have also given him a beautiful name, Leroy Renee.]Upon seeing the words "Leroy Renee", Abigail was surprised.She thought, 'It turns out my dad was the adopted child! This means that for so many years, Grandma had treated her adopted child better than her own son. Wait...'Abigail realized something was not right. 'If my dad wasn't my grandma's child, why did the DNA test between Lucia and Grandma show that they were related? So now, which piece of information is false? Which one is true?'Abigail could not figure it out. So, she texted Xander on WhatsApp: [Nathan, is it possible that someone tampered with the process of the DNA test between Lucia and Grandma?]Xander did not reply to her text. But he came to Cassandra's room very quickly. "What's going on?"Abigail handed Cassandra
