Semua Bab Abigail's Absent Husband Is A CEO: Bab 1641 - Bab 1650

While Hugh and Emma were talking, his phone suddenly rang. He answered immediately. "Ron, I'm at school."Emma could not hear what Ron was saying, but she heard Hugh say, "What's so strange about me coming to school today? I just happen to be interested in the girl who came to my house a few days ago to apply for a tutoring job."Hugh paused and added, "It's quite a coincidence; she happens to be our junior. So, I came early to see if she needed my help."Emma was not interested in their affairs. So, while Hugh was on the phone, she quickly dragged her suitcase and walked away.Hugh spoke again, "By the way, I heard that the arranged fiancée your family chose for you is also a new student at our school. When are you bringing her out for us to meet?"Before he could finish talking, Ron had already hung up.Hugh shook his head after the call ended. He sighed. "It's fine that he doesn't want her to meet us. Why did he suddenly end the call? He's becoming more and more unpredictable.

After one night had passed, Emma had already buried the emotional pain within herself.In the afternoon, she arrived at the location specified by the counselor on time.People were rehearsing speeches and performances. Everyone was busy with their tasks.However, Emma had waited for quite a while and still did not see her partner.She texted in the three-person group chat, mentioning that person: [Hi, have you arrived?]That person did not respond.Emma checked the time. The agreed-upon time was at 2:00 p.m., and it was now 2:30 p.m., a full half an hour had passed. She hated nothing more than people who were not punctual.Even so, she did not say anything unpleasant. She texted again: [Please respond when you see my messages. It's been more than half an hour since the agreed time. How much longer do I have to wait for you?]After she sent it, she waited for some time, but that student still did not reply to her.Perhaps, the counselor was unable to stand it any longer. He tex

Ron did not give anyone a chance to react with his final word. He handed the microphone back to the host, strutting off the stage with a total disregard for everyone around. Wherever Ron went, he was the center of attention; every gaze in the room followed his every move.As he approached his gang of misfits, he muttered something to them, and they all followed him, exiting the assembly in full view of the entire school.With Ron gone, it was not just the crowd's eyes following him—it seemed like he had taken their souls with him. No one paid any attention to Emma on the stage.The host quickly passed the microphone to Emma. "You continue."Emma was not fazed, despite being completely ignored by everyone. With Ron out of the picture, she felt more relaxed. When she spoke again, her voice was loud and clear, her emotions palpable. She quickly recaptured everyone's attention.The morning flew by, and as the assembly dispersed, Emma and her dormmates headed back to their room.Buzzi

Deborra knew that if there was anyone to blame, it was her family's inability to penetrate the elite circles of Valtara's three major families.The Costner family, a name towering unreachable for many, paled in comparison to the Hagrids. Had things been different, she, not Emma from South Florivera, would have been the one to join forces with Ron.Deep down, Deborra understood the whole picture, but she refused to accept it. She stubbornly blamed Emma for everything that had gone wrong.Meanwhile, Ron had already gathered his motley crew of friends at his house near the school. This place, a sprawling two thousand square-foot loft, was his first major purchase during his freshman year. He spent most of his university days living there.Since Ron was the only one living there, he had transformed the space into a bachelor's dream. The extra rooms were knocked through to create an ultimate game room. He would invite various classmates over daily under the guise of "game testing"—a cle

Hugh thought, 'So, he's not admitting it? If he doesn't admit it, does that mean I can do whatever I want with her?'Ron shot back, "Did I ever stop you from chasing her?"Hugh, frustrated, thought to himself, 'Damn! Who talks like that?'Ron, with a challenging tone, asked, "What's the matter? Getting cold feet?"Hugh cautiously asked, "So, you're saying I can keep pursuing Emma?"Ron said, "You better move fast and seal the deal with her."Hugh finally grasped Ron's cruel intent. "Ron, oh Ron, you're ruthless. You want me to woo your fiancée, hoping something happens between us, so you can call off the engagement. But did you ever think about the consequences? What would Emma have to endure?"This meant disgrace for the Hagrid family, it meant Ron could not even keep a woman, and it meant Emma would never have a good life ahead.Ron did not care about the first two points, but when it came to fragile Emma, it was a different story. But he did not want to let his heart soften.
