All Chapters of Abigail's Absent Husband Is A CEO: Chapter 1661 - Chapter 1670

Emma asked, "So, what are you asking?"Ron said, "Didn't your family teach you to fight back when bullied? Didn't they tell you that if you're too kind, people will take advantage of you?"Emma sniffed, her nose turning red, and shook her head. "No."As she was growing up, Emma was taught to endure and tolerate things. If she resisted, she would face various forms of punishment, including solitary confinement and physical abuse.Emma still vividly remembered a time from her childhood when Jadon Blue, her uncle Fredrinn Blue's son, had damaged her favorite stationery box. Fredrinn was Carl's younger brother.At that time, Emma was so angry that she pushed Jadon.She was not strong, and her push could not actually cause Jadon to fall. Unexpectedly, Jadon intentionally fell to the ground and started crying loudly. "She hit me, she hit me..."Jadon's cries quickly attracted the attention of the adults.Ally Bennett, Fredrinn's wife, cried and held Jadon. "Who hit you?"Jadon trium

After a while, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped.Then, Ron opened the bathroom door and came out with a towel wrapped tightly around him.He was young, and his physique was great.Emma, startled, instinctively covered her eyes. "U-Um, there's a sofa in the study area. Can I sleep there for tonight?"Ron replied, "There are clean clothes prepared for you in the cloakroom. Take a shower. I'm a germophobe; I don't want someone dirty sleeping in the same room as me."Emma lowered her hands and saw Ron's sturdy chest again. She quickly covered her eyes once more. "So, you agree to allow me to sleep on the sofa?"Ron responded, "I dislike people who talk too much."Emma understood him. "I'll go get washed."Emma then went to the cloakroom.The Hagrid family's servants were considerate. Not only did they prepare several sets of clean clothes for Emma, but they also provided her with sleepwear.The house was heated, so despite the freezing temperature outside, it was warm i

Emma and Rihanna talked for quite a while. The moment they hung up, Emma immediately fired up her banking app to check the balance in her account.Back in South Florivera, the Blues never gave her a dime for personal expenses. They would not let her take any part-time jobs either, fearing it would tarnish their family's reputation.Her bank account boasted a little over ten grand, every penny of which was earned from tutoring gigs since she landed in Valtara. In a small town, ten thousand bucks could stretch to cover a year's rent and living expenses if she played her cards right.But Valtara was a different beast. Sky-high living costs, exorbitant rents, and landlords demanding a year's lease upfront. Her savings would not even cover the rent, let alone support Rihanna when she arrived.Determined to bring Rihanna to Valtara sooner rather than later, Emma steeled herself. She decided to hustle harder, scouring for another part-time job to beef up her monthly earnings.With her mi

The words were a direct hit at Kerry. Kerry, unaccustomed to taking flak like this, seethed with rage. "Ron, you've become far too arrogant!"Ron looked up, his gaze icy. "Aunt, if you acted the part of an elder, I'd respect and love you. But you don't even respect yourself, failing to set a good example. How can you expect me to respect you?"Kerry retorted. "You're saying I fail to behave like an elder, but are you behaving like a younger one?"Ron shot back. "I'm still young, learning a lot from you elders. If you act like an elder. I'll act like the younger generation. If you don't, neither will I."Kerry was lost for words.Emma watched Ron with her eyes wide, fixated on him.She then realized that Ron was not just arrogant toward her and the people at school. Anyone who crossed him got the same haughty treatment. Like her, Ron was just a pawn in the family game. She had no choice but to swallow her pride, while he did whatever he pleased.Emma was eager to learn how he man

"If it's too much trouble, just forget it," Emma said.Ron did not respond. He just turned and got into his car.Emma stood still, not daring to move. She had not even mustered the courage to ask for a ride to the university, only hoping he would take her out of the upscale neighborhood to catch public transport.In Valtara, cabs were a rip-off. Emma relied on buses or the subway, walking whenever possible to save every penny. Now, Ron would not even give her a lift out of the fancy neighborhood.But she figured it was no big deal. She would just run a bit faster. She believed skipping one class would not set her back too much.Ron called out, "What are you waiting for?"'Is he offering me a ride?' thought Emma, a surge of joy hitting her. She hurriedly opened the door and slid into the passenger seat of his sports car. It was a two-seater, so the passenger seat was her only option.Ron started the car and eased out of the driveway. Emma pulled up the map on her phone. There was
