Margaret's concern showed clearly. "Are you alright? Is there trouble with Xander? If he's giving you any problems, let me know. I'll handle it."Abigail wiped her tears. "Grandma, everything's fine."Margaret looked worried. "Always remember, we're here for you. If something's on your mind, let us know. We're here to support you, so don't keep things to yourself."Margaret cared for her deeply, always thinking of her well-being. Abigail was well aware of this, and that was why she treasured Margaret the most.Abigail wrapped her arms around Margaret, comforted by the familiar scent. "I miss my grandma.

Susanna pondered, 'Maybe I'm reading too much into it. Abigail probably knows what she wants.'After a few moments of silence, Abigail said, "Thank you for always being there for me."From their first encounter at Monsoon Villa, Susanna had cared for her like a mother would. Susanna replied, "Why the thanks? Xander pays me well, and it's my job to look after you." Although Susanna often quipped about working for money, her affection for the Zane family went beyond her paycheck.Abigail drove in silence, arriving at Monsoon Villa around 9:00 p.m. With the main house dark, it was clear Xander was not home. She checked her phone, seeing no calls or messages from him. But she was not surprised.Susanna, noticing her preoccupation, said, "Xander has been buried in work lately. But he'll be around more once things slow down, right?"Abigail offered a faint smile. "Yeah, I understand. It's late now; you should head to bed."Abigail's calm exterior only deepened Susanna's worry. "Want to

On the fourth day, Melody returned. When Abigail saw her at the studio door, she was taken aback by how pale Melody looked. "What happened, Mel?" Abigail rushed to help her friend sit down and handed her a glass of water.With trembling hands, Melody took a sip and whispered, "I lost my baby."Abigail felt a surge of sadness. Holding Melody's hand, she gently asked, "How?"With a pained expression, Melody replied, "I had an abortion."Stunned, Abigail whispered, "Why?""He lied to me," Melody blurted. "He was previously married and has a four-year-old child. I can accept a past, but not deceit." Abigail nodded, understanding her sentiment; she had no patience for lies either. "During my first two visits to his hometown, they kept the child hidden. The whole family deceived me. But on my last visit, they didn't.""Why not?" Abigail asked.Melody chuckled, her laughter tinged with bitterness. "They thought because I was pregnant, I'd have no choice but to join their family. Can yo

Felix was visibly upset. "Why would he lie? That guy is bad news. If I run into him, he's going to wish he hadn't messed with you. Though, Stinky Caterpie, your guy seems a lot more reliable." Pausing for a moment, he added, "By the way, where's he been? You've been at the studio so much, but I haven't seen him once. I haven't even heard his voice over the phone."Lately, Abigail had not talked much to Xander, like they did not know each other. "He's really busy with work," she told Felix."He was always busy, right?" Felix asked.Abigail, not wanting to talk about Xander, said, "Let's not talk about me. We need to help Mel."Melody said, "I've moved on. He and I are over."Felix nodded. "That's the spirit. Always remember, it's important to do what's best for you. Don't linger if it doesn't feel right."Turning to Abigail, Melody said, "Come on, Stinky Caterpie. Tell Felix."Abigail played dumb. "Tell him what?"Felix asked, "Why hasn't your guy visited you recently?"With a

After chatting with Melody, Abigail went to the nearby market. She lived in Monsoon Villa where meals were made for her every day, and she had not been to a busy market in a while. Still, she knew exactly what to buy and how to get a good deal. Abigail picked up healthy foods and some of Melody's favorite fruits and snacks, then carried all the bags home.On her way home, Abigail ran into Felix. Knowing she was shopping alone, he came to assist. Without hesitation, Felix grabbed the bags from her."You should head back, Caterpie. I can take care of Mel," he said.Abigail replied, "Why push me out so soon? We haven't had a group dinner in forever. Can I at least stay for that?"Felix said, "We wish you were at The Lakeside with us, like the old times. But marriage can shift priorities."Holding onto Felix's arm tightly, Abigail replied, "Does being married mean leaving old friends behind? Mel and you are so important to me."Felix said, "I feel the same about you and Mel. Knowing

Abigail understood Melody's heartache. Just a short time before, Melody had been full of joy, wondering if her baby would be a boy or a girl. Such rapid changes in life were heartbreaking. Wrapping her arms around Melody, Abigail shared the silent moment with her.The sudden ring of the phone broke their moment. Abigail answered and recognized Felix's voice. "Is Mel still resting? Should I bring some food to her place?""No need," Abigail said, "we'll be right over."After ending the call, Abigail gently helped Melody stand. "Let's eat. A good meal can lift our spirits."Melody offered a faint smile. "Together, we can handle whatever comes our way."When they finished eating, Abigail planned to stay the night with Melody. But Melody suggested otherwise."Come by and see me tomorrow," she said, "but tonight, go home. Don't leave your man by himself."At this, Felix chimed in, "I'll be right here with Melody. Go ahead, Abigail, she's in good hands."Abigail replied, "Alright then

Xander looked at her with cold eyes. "Have you decided?" His voice was distant and he did not even ask her why she suddenly wanted a divorce, making Abigail feel he had expected this talk about divorce."I have," Abigail responded.Xander glanced at the divorce agreement. "You're not asking for anything?"Abigail said, "I earned my money working with you. But as your wife, I didn't help make the money you had before we got married. So, I don't want any of it.""After we married, what I earned became ours. You can keep the gifts from my grandma. I'll give you some money, so you won't have to worry about finances.""I don't need it. I can work and support myself.""Take some time to think about it."Abigail said, "I've thought it over. If it's all good, please sign where indicated, and we can choose a date for our legal divorce."Xander replied, "If you're set on this, we don't need to visit any office. I can get a lawyer to come here for the paperwork."Abigail smiled and said,

Abigail thought, 'What a scene of protecting a loved one. Xander once protected me like this too. I used to think I was the only girl he protected. Now it all seems like a joke.'She then hurriedly stepped forward and stood in front of Susanna. "Mr. Zane, please sign the divorce agreement now. I'll take Susanna away with me."Susanna said, "Abigail..."Abigail smiled at Susanna. "I know exactly what I'm doing. And I know the kind of life I want to live. I understand you want the best for me. But you may not know what kind of life I want. Give me the divorce agreement."Abigail's gentle voice was like the best calming agent in the world. Susanna quickly calmed down after she heard Abigail's words. She then handed the divorce agreement to Abigail. "Abigail, I hope you have a good life."Abigail took the divorce agreement and smiled. "Yes. I'll live well. I won't let you worry about me."She then handed the divorce agreement back to Xander. "Mr. Zane, you can sign now."Xander pick

Abigail carefully put her divorce contract into her bag before grabbing her suitcase and said, "Mr. Zane, I'll take Susanna and leave now.""I'll walk you out." Xander instinctively got up, wanting to hold Abigail's hand.She immediately stepped back to avoid the physical contact. "No need."With his extended hand left hanging, Xander paused for a moment before saying, "You can continue driving the car I bought for you."Abigail responded, "I don't need it."Xander replied, "I can have the driver take you."Abigail said, "It's not necessary."Xander responded, "It's not easy to get a taxi here."'We're already divorced. So, why is he still pretending?' Abigail thought before saying, "Mr. Zane, we're divorced! We're now complete strangers to each other. Whether I can get a taxi or not is my concern. You don't need to worry about it."Abigail said in her thoughts, 'Once we signed the divorce agreement, I have no connection with him anymore. From now on, we're strangers even if w

Abigail did not deny it. She smiled as she said, "Life isn't always smooth sailing. We have to go through various experiences to grow."Susanna responded, "No matter what, you have to live well from now on."Abigail replied, "I will, I definitely will."She then lifted her head to look at the sky. It was getting late. The full moon was slowly rising in the night sky, hanging there all alone.She felt it was much like her current state of mind. Even though there was someone by her side, she felt incredibly alone, like a small boat adrift in the vast sea, unable to find a port to return to.Susanna spoke again, "Abigail, I..."Abigail came back to her senses. "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't hesitate."Susanna said with some hesitation, "I have no children, and I have nowhere to go. I've worked for the Zane family for twenty or thirty years. I've already considered the Zane residence as my home and everyone in the family as my own family."Now that Xander no long
