All Chapters of Abigail's Absent Husband Is A CEO: Chapter 791 - Chapter 800

Stella said, "Don't ask me; I really don't know. My fans and supporters, many of them seem to be pretty rich. I hear most of them who spend freely are rich kids or wealthy housewives."Susie replied, "There was a time when I was crazy about chasing celebrities too. I spent a lot of money on gifts and endorsements. Just when I was really getting into it, Alwyn found out. He thought I was spending money on a boy toy. He got so mad that he stopped my credit card. It was so unfair, and I had no one to complain to."Abigail asked, "How much money did you spend on that male celeb?"Stella guessed, "A few million, right?"Susie replied, "Twenty million dollars! I was planning to invest in a movie for him to be the leading man, but it didn't happen."Abigail was speechless. 'What a waste! That money could be used for so many things.' She felt really sad and upset.Stella asked, "Which male celeb? I wonder if I know him."Susie answered, "Let's not talk about it. He's doing fine now, and

"No bet?" Ron seemed surprised that Xander would refuse him so directly. He lit a cigarette. "When did you, the boss of Zane Corporation, become so timid?"Xander looked up at Ron. "I said no bet, and I meant it. Trying to trick me won't work. Stop it."Ron put out his cigarette after only a couple of puffs. "You have a few more days to give Emma back to me. If you don't, you'll see what I'll do."Xander swirled his glass, wanting to take a sip, but remembering Abigail's warning, he set it back down. "I'm ready for whatever comes."Lucas said, "Why are you two fighting over this? Is it worth losing your friendship over just a woman?""Just a woman?" Ron became angry. Now he was not just annoyed with Xander but Lucas too. "If he took your wife away, would you still say she's 'just a woman'?"Lucas replied, "My wife, Stella, would never leave me."Ron looked at Alwyn. "What about you, Alwyn?"Alwyn said, "If someone took Susie away, I would fight them. I knew I would marry Susie

"Scared of Xander?" Lucas repeated Stella's words, suddenly laughing. "Darling, do you really think your husband is that weak? Huh?"Stella knew very well whether Lucas was weak or not, but she wanted to challenge him a bit. "Is it so hard to admit you're scared of Mr. Zane?" Xander could be quite terrifying, a real sly man who could be ruthless."Xander usually seems so calm and well-mannered, especially with those silver-rimmed glasses. He looks like a really smart man, with no hint of being mean or scary. But in truth, he's extreme and even more frightening than Lunatic Hagrid. When Xander was not even eighteen, he managed to send his own father to prison. Think about it, would I really be scared of him?" Lucas freely admitted his fear of Xander; it was nothing to be ashamed of. "I just never thought that Xander, who always stayed away from women, would one day care so much about a woman. We all saw tonight how much he likes Abigail. The way he spoils her with no limits could caus

Stella thought, 'Whenever Xander eats with us, his utensils must be new. And there'll be communal forks. If anyone used their own utensil to take the food, Xander wouldn't eat that dish and even the dish beside it.'He's such a picky person. But now he actually ate Abigail's leftover food!'Abigail was as surprised as Stella.She could not help but blush when she saw Xander eat her meatball. "Why did you eat the meatball that I have eaten half of?"Xander stared at her and tenderly said, "You said you were full. I didn't want to waste it. And since I could still eat, I just helped you to finish it."Abigail replied, "It's fine to just leave the uneaten food. I'll take less next time. You don't have to make things difficult for yourself...""I feel fine doing that." Xander continued, "You don't have to take food for me. I can do that myself."Abigail subconsciously did that as she had been taking care of Xander for the past year. Whenever they ate together, she would always ensur

She was lost in her thoughts. 'If I get involved, it might change things.'I intend to help. But I might cause trouble instead.'Xander gently pinched her hand. "Do you understand?"Abigail nodded. "Yes."She was upset that she could not help Stella fulfill her little wish. Xander raised his hand to check the time. "It's eight-twenty now. The light show will start in ten minutes. Let's all go together and watch it later."Abigail was delighted. "You don't want to play cards?"Xander was happy when he saw the joy on Abigail's face. "I can play cards anytime. But things that can make you happy aren't always available."Abigail ignored everyone's stare and kissed Xander on his lips. "Mr. Zane, you're so, so nice!"'Mr. Zane!'She called me Mr. Zane!'She used an honorific when she kissed me!'Xander adjusted his glasses and looked at her. The emotions in his gaze under the silver-rimmed glasses kept changing.He thought, 'My Abigail is so innocent and cute. She has no idea how
