Mobius smirked. "Let's see how long you can keep that up."Staying confident was important to Abigail, especially with the first round being so crucial. Once everything was set, a voice shouted, "Begin!" After a loud bang sounded, her bullet hit the center of the target.The three Blau brothers watched in surprise, thinking, 'We didn't expect her to be this good. There are ten rounds, and this is only the first. Let's see how she does next.'"Do you really know how to shoot, or did you just get lucky? We'll find out in the next round." With that, Mobius stepped up with confidence, swiftly firing his gun.Soon after, the other brothers cheered, "Wow, Mobius nailed it!" His bullet landed just above Abigail's, right in the center of the target."Abigail," Mobius said, turning to her with a smirk, "how does my shooting stack up to yours? Remember, you can always back out before we're done."Abigail tried hard to ignore Mobius and focus on her shot. But nerves struck, and as she was a

Abigail took a deep breath and hit the center of the target. But just like before, Mobius's bullet landed a tad above hers. They went back and forth, and by the time they reached the last round, they were tied. Even though they seemed cool and collected, the three brothers were super anxious.Skye said, "Why is Abigail being so stubborn? If she backed off, maybe Mobius would go easy on her."Rowen replied, "She's going to be so upset if she loses."Marlin wondered aloud, "Was it right for us to team up with Mobius to test her?"Rowen playfully tugged Marlin's ear. "Having doubts now? Kind of late for that."Marlin shrugged. "I just thought it'd be fun."As the conversation continued outside, the shooting contest inside came to a head. In the final round, Abigail nailed the center of the target. But in a twist, Mobius's bullet did not even hit the right target. He shot Abigail a fierce look, shouting, "Did you cheat?"Abigail just shrugged, replying with a teasing smile, "Who mad

Mobius admitted defeat, "I'm sorry.""Who are you apologizing to?"Mobius hesitated. "Abigail, I'm sorry.""What did you do wrong?""I didn't do anything.""What?""I shouldn't have called you greedy," Mobius confessed.Abigail replied, "Think it over and come back when you're truly sorry."Mobius was speechless. 'Man, even though she's in her early twenties, younger than the three of us, how does she always get one up on me?'Abigail turned to Marlin, who stood tall and unflinching. "I want a hug," he declared.Abigail replied firmly, "No hugs."Marlin's face fell. "Is it because Mobius is mad at me?"She shot back, "You four teamed up to play that trick on me. You played a part."Marlin feigned surprise, blinking. "But I'm only four."Drawing from Xander's words, Abigail retorted, "Your kind of 'four' isn't like most kids."Abigail trusted Xander's take on Marlin: he was way smarter than any four-year-old she knew. She asked, "What's the plan now?"Mobius replied, "We

Mobius hoped to watch Abigail get scared enough to cry."Alright, let's see what you've got," Abigail said, taking her seat. As the theater lights faded, the screen came alive with startling and gruesome images.Scared, Rowen tightly gripped Skye's hand, thinking, 'Does Mobius want to scare me more than he wants to scare Abigail? He knows how these movies get to me, especially when they seem so lifelike.'Skye whispered, "Rowen, be brave. Look at Abigail; she's not even flinching."Rowen wondered out loud, "Is she too scared to move? Or maybe she's just closing her eyes?" If that were the case, the movie would be pointless. As Rowen and Skye leaned forward to see if Abigail had her eyes closed, they were astonished to find them wide open, locked onto the big screen. After catching a quick look at the eerie scene, Rowen drew back in a flash. "What's going on? Why isn't she scared?"Skye said, "I'm beginning to think she's different from us."Just as Rowen was about to speak, a han

Mobius looked at Abigail, then said slowly, "You're kind of spooky.""Me? Spooky?" Abigail was still focused on the movie. She thought movies could be creepy, but some people were even creepier. "If I don't let people bully me and I stand up for myself, that makes me 'bad' in your eyes?" Mobius did not know what to say. Abigail laughed. "I've never wanted to hurt anyone, let alone you guys. I just stood up to what you threw at me today. You wanted to freak me out, but now you're calling me spooky? All because I defended myself?"Mobius said, "I didn't want to hurt you. I was testing you."Abigail asked, "Why test me?"Mobius explained, "To see if you're brave and smart. The Blau family is special, and being a part of it means you need to be on your toes. From what I've seen, you'd be a great fit for us.""Do you want me to join the Blau family?" Abigail chuckled. "Uncle Mobius, it's my decision to make, not yours or anyone else's."Mobius replied, "You were raised away from the B

The brothers chatted for a while. However, Marlin remained silent and looked troubled, which was unusual for him.Seeing this, Mobius pinched Marlin's cheek. "What's bothering you?"Marlin said, "I overheard Uncle Johann. He mentioned someone might be after Abigail. We can't let her head home by herself."Mobius said, "Uncle Johann has so many bodyguards for Abigail; nobody could get close."Marlin responded, "But she came here in our car, and we didn't tell the bodyguards when she left. What if they don't know she's gone?"Mobius's eyes widened in concern. "Quick, let the bodyguards know Abigail left. They have to be on their toes."Abigail sat in the back seat of Paxton's car as he drove. She asked, "Weren't you supposed to go to Pleasia with Mr. Zane?"Paxton replied, "Well, I'm with you now, right?"She continued, "Okay, but is your younger brother Samuel with Mr. Zane in Pleasia? Do you know where he is?"In Chrysalis, it was past noon, which meant it was early morning in

Abigail's voice was soft, tinged with hurt. There was a pause before Xander finally said, "Yeah."To Abigail, he seemed almost dismissive. However, Xander's voice softened as he admitted, "I really do miss you."Abigail brightened, responding with a teasing smile. "I miss you even more. Like, two times more," she emphasized, playfully making her point clear.With a hint of amusement, Xander replied, "I get it."Abigail whispered back, "I want to hear more than just that."Xander chuckled. "Okay, I hear you."Abigail said, "Over there, don't skip meals because of work, like you used to. I've heard it's cold, and you hate the cold. Make sure you're dressed warmly." Suddenly, she heard Xander coughing. Concerned, she quickly asked, "Have you caught a cold? Is Dr. Watson with you? I'd like to talk to him."Soon after, Abigail heard Kane's voice. "Abigail, you're right. Xander didn't dress warmly, and he's never good about bundling up. He had a fever of 102.2°F this morning, and it h

Xander shook his head. Kane said, "Abigail is your wife. She deserves to know the truth. Why wear yourself down keeping secrets?"Meeting Kane's eyes with a chilling stare, Xander replied, "Tell her, and I'll cut out your tongue."Even while bedridden, Xander's presence was so commanding it made Kane uneasy. He had this gut feeling that if he angered Xander, the latter might just leap from the bed to confront him. To ease the tension, Kane said, "I won't tell Abigail anything. But don't forget our agreement."Without a word, Xander slowly closed his eyes."Hey, Xander, keep your end of the bargain," Kane said.After a pause, Xander spoke up, his voice a soft whisper, "I promised to cooperate with the doctors, regardless of the challenges. Each day is another chance to be with Abigail." Before, he was not afraid of death, having nothing to lose. But now, he feared leaving Abigail, not fulfilling his promise to grow old with her. His greatest dread was picturing her heartbreak and g

Xander expected that from Gavin and his partner. "Tell me more."Sila said, "A maid found this footage years ago. She considered going to the police but was scared of Gavin's backlash, especially if there wasn't enough evidence against him. So, she made a secret copy, quit working for the Guzman family, and hid away, aiming to reveal Gavin's actions in the future."Xander asked, "Did you check her background?"Sila nodded. "She isn't linked to Gavin." He noticed Xander's tight grip on the documents. "Mr. Zane, this footage is a copy and needs validation. Rumors have circled about Gavin being behind several deaths, but they've never been confirmed. He might have influential allies protecting him. I held back on verifying the footage because I was worried about how they'd react."Xander said, "I'll contact someone, and you'll give him the documents. He'll have them verified by a top agency."Sila nodded. "Understood.""Once the documents are confirmed authentic, hand them over to t

After their conversation, Xander waved his hand, indicating Sila could leave. "Get on with your tasks," he said."Understood," Sila replied and left.Kane let out a sigh. But before Xander could relax, his phone rang. Kane asked, "Can you shut your phone off, Xander? You need to focus on getting better."Xander picked up the call without responding to Kane's suggestion. Although he could not hear the person on the other end, Kane caught what Xander said. "Yes, she needs to quickly get familiar with her tasks. I'll give new instructions when I return." After speaking, he hung up.Kane asked, "Can you rest now?"Xander replied, "Has the person you contacted gotten here?"Kane said, "People are all over the world. Even with the quickest flights, it'll take two or three days for everyone to get here."Xander nodded. "What I really want to know is, can you cure me?""I..." Kane, a renowned physician, was not sure he could treat Xander. The night before, they had taken Xander to the
