All Chapters of Abigail's Absent Husband Is A CEO: Chapter 871 - Chapter 880

"What are you guys talking about? I don't understand a word!" Abigail exclaimed, looking at her two best friends in front of her. They had grown up together, but now their faces seemed so strange that she felt like she did not even recognize them.Melody took a step forward, wanting to hug Abigail, but Abigail quickly backed away, avoiding them as though they were venomous snakes or wild beasts. "You're not Mel and Fee. They wouldn't say bad things about my grandma," Abigail said, with her eyes wide and a look of mistrust and fear on her face. "Tell the truth, who are you really? Why are you pretending to be my best friends?""Caterpie, we really are Mel and Fee..." Melody and Felix, seeing Abigail acting like this, were very worried. Melody quickly tried to calm her down, saying, "Okay, we won't talk about it anymore. If you don't want to hear it, we won't say it." Right now, their main concern was calming her down."No. You're not Mel and Fee. Tell the truth, who are you really?"

Cassandra was lying peacefully in bed, with makeup on her face, looking as if she were asleep. She was not breathing. If not for that, people would not know she had passed away. Abigail looked up, silently staring at Cassandra. No one knew what she was thinking.Felix, standing beside her, said, "Caterpie, open your eyes wide and remember how Grandma looks. You won't see her again."Melody nudged Felix and whispered, "Fee, don't say that. Don't push Caterpie too hard. Give her some time to cope."But Felix was relentless, wanting to help Abigail understand what happened. "Caterpie, your grandma always wanted you to be brave and strong. In her eyes, you've always been strong. But look at you now; you don't even have the courage to face what's happened. You're acting afraid. If Grandma knew you were this weak, she would be really disappointed.""You all leave. I want to talk to Grandma alone," Abigail suddenly said, her voice flat and calm. She seemed totally different from how she h

"You think that thing made a huge mark on my life, like a stain. But thinking that way is wrong. We're the ones who were hurt. Why should someone else's mistake be something bad about me? I used to be scared just like you, afraid people would talk about me, look at me in a mean way. Then I met Xander. He told me that we shouldn't feel bad. The people who did wrong should be the ones to get in trouble." Abigail kept talking about Xander. "I know you think Xander would make a great husband. He's rich and powerful, and he's good-looking too. It's hard to find someone like him. I promise to cherish him. But what matters most is that Xander is really nice. Sometimes, he's so nice that it doesn't seem real. He just told me he'll always be with me. But I'm scared to believe him. I'm scared that if I do, he'll leave me one day, suddenly not wanting me, just like you did."Abigail thought that hoping for something could lead to disappointment. If she did not hope, she would not be let down. Ri

People often said that home was the best place to be. After moving to Florivera, Cassandra never talked to Abigail about going back to North Florivera, but Abigail could feel that her grandmother missed it. She knew she had to take her grandmother's ashes back to North Florivera to bury her with her grandfather and father, so they could all be together again in a special place.Margaret did not want to let go of her dear friend and thought it was proper to keep the body at home for a few days, like people used to do a long time ago. But she still respected Abigail's wishes. "Alright, we'll do as you say," she agreed."Thank you, Grandma," said Abigail.Margaret reached out and ruffled Abigail's hair. "Remember what your grandma told you, Abigail. From now on, Essy, Xander, and I are your family."Esther came forward and hugged Abigail tightly. "I'll protect you and be with you from now on. I won't let anyone be mean to you."Susanna said, "And me too. I'm about the same age as you

"That man and the young girl look similar; they must be brother and sister. I guess the old lady is their elder," one person said."Abigail must have tricked them with her sly ways," another commented."Are Harvey and his wife home? They need to step in and deal with this. We can't let her have an easy time here," someone declared.Just then, Xander not far away looked up, giving them a cold, piercing glance that made them shiver."That man's eyes are really scary," one woman whispered."Do you think he might be a criminal running away?" another asked, her voice full of concern."Maybe. Why else would he be with her?" someone else chimed in."Should we call the police? Maybe they need to come and get them.""Yes, call the police. We can't let someone like that stay in our neighborhood," one person insisted."I don't think he looks like a bad guy at all. Just look at his face," someone else disagreed."You can't always tell what someone is like just by looking at them," anothe
