LOVE: Revenge in Disguise Chapt 30: Trick or Treat!
Alice came to Abby's office after a long absence. She had read the news about the arrival of a young businessman who became Abigail's lover, Ashton. "I didn't realize you already had a boyfriend," Alice commented, which made Abby blush. "Remember, Alice, everything a businessman does is back for business," she said as she poured Alice some coffee. "How have you been after disappearing for so long?" "Oh... you should be able to see for yourself. I just went on a mission. It wasn't easy to find your brother. Whenever I got information on his whereabouts, he disappeared as soon as I arrived. It's bizarre, considering no one recognized him." Abigail was stunned to hear Alice's story. Her hand pouring coffee stayed in place, causing coffee to spill everywhere. "Hey, Abby, your coffee!" Abigail flinched at Alice's warning; as a result, the pot of hot, pitch-black liquid fell to the floor, its contents scattering across the room's carpet.
LOVE: Revenge in Disguise Chapt 31: Pleasure Part of A Negotiation
After the failed mission to find Gin, Alice made another plan, of course, for the same purpose. She hoped that this umpteenth tactic would pay off. However, before executing the plan, there was something she wanted to do. Just like Abby, she was curious about Doctor Gregory. How did the man know Abby's true identity? She even remembered that he didn't bring him up at all other than asking about Gin, who was very young then.Foolishly, she did not suspect the doctor. Therefore, today, she decided to return to the rehabilitation center and meet with Dr. Gregory. She could no longer resist, especially since Abigail felt threatened when she learned that the doctor seemed to know a lot about the Anderson family. Alice was already prepared, dressed in her best clothes, still the same as the last time she visited. An appearance that didn't look like manipulation. For the sake of Abby and her family, Alice would disguise herself as anything. She took steady ste
LOVE: Revenge in Disguise Chapt 32: A Chance
Abby was left alone, thinking about what Alice had said about her brother. How difficult was it to find that young man? Should she step in and search? Honestly, she was being severely beaten by an unrelenting test. He was strong, still the same as before. Only being strong was not enough to get through everything. She needed a friend she could rely on to share with. Alice, of course. However, Abby couldn't always expect Alice to come to see her. The girl had to go on a mission that was no joke, searching for Gin's whereabouts, which was emotionally draining. He was slippery and hard to catch. Then, what about Ashton? He was her best friend and lover in the past, coming back and giving her new hope. However, she never told him about her life.Ashton only knew the outside of her life, not the inside. Therefore, she hesitates to tell him everything for now—maybe later. Deep in thought and reverie, Abby's cell phone suddenly rang, making her startle
LOVE: Revenge in Disguise Chapt 33: Never Let Go
Zac was ready because their father, mother, and sister were coming for dinner. And Sidney, too. It was not a big celebration, just talking about his and Abby's partnership and a little father-son conversation—as usual, answering his father's curiosity about how he came to have a business relationship with Abby's company. What Garry knew was that Abby was very difficult to compromise with. Not a few of the company owners had to return empty-handed when negotiating with the female boss of one of the multinational companies. Zac was proud of his career success and achievements but empty because, increasingly, the goal of approaching Abigail was no longer a matter of business but love. And he had swallowed the disappointment of that. "I'm so proud of you, Zac. It's only right that I put the Emers Group under your leadership." A proud smile spread across the face of the mustachioed man who seemed to have aged. It was obvious that his body had shrunk to be thinner th
LOVE: Revenge in Disguise Chapt 34: Desire and Rejection
Abigail and Ashton set foot in Zachary's apartment. The man and his girlfriend greeted them warmly. Especially Sidney. For her, this was a good opportunity to get close to Ashton while making Zac jealous. But unfortunately, Ashton did not let go of Abigail's hand even for a moment. What Ashton did, of course, made Sidney upset, as well as surprised. Why was Ashton, even Zachary, so enamored of Abigail, who looked ordinary in her eyes? She didn't. She admitted that Abby did have an extraordinary charm. Something she could not possibly have even if she spent more money on body care than Abigail. However, Abby had something that Sidney could not have. Zachary invited his two guests to sit, asking the waiter to pour red wine into their glasses, entertaining them graciously. Abigail clasped Ashton's arm tightly, then leaned closer to whisper something into her lover's ear. "Isn't Christmas still a long time away... why did they go to all this trouble to serve us?" asked Abigai
LOVE: Revenge in Disguise Chapt 35: Preparation
After Zachary's dinner, Abigail was left scratching her head about her life. Including her love life. Why was she unable to resist Zac at that time? Was this part of the plan, too? Or had something taken over the control that had been in her hands? Thinking about it, she really couldn't keep her eyes closed tonight. Even thoughts of Ashton were intruding and disturbing her day. Ashton was a pretty stubborn guy. He would never stop until he got what he wanted. Although he had said that he had one month to persuade Abby to accept his proposal, if in the end she refused, he was sure Ashton could have extended the time limit to several months or even years until she said 'yes'. Of course, that was what she feared the most. If asked how she feels about Ashton, her uncle knew she liked him back then, and she still feels the same way today. It might even be love. However, that was not the problem that made Abby confused, but because Ashton's pr
LOVE: Revenge in Disguise Chapt 36: Abby' Turn
Abby decided to take a few days off. She chose to go back to the Eastern Shore to see her uncle and aunt and spend time with them. She felt she had to start doing that, just in case she didn't have long to live; at least she had given her adoptive parents some good memories—a time of togetherness. She drove the car herself, even though several drivers and assistants offered to pick her up and drop her off. It was nothing; she just wanted to enjoy the trip by herself. It had been a long time since she felt this peaceful solitude. The presence of Zachary, followed by Alice, then Sidney, and finally Ashton, had animated a life previously only her. Introverts seem to feel often annoyed and tired if they have to interact with many people. Now, it was time to feel some real peace. Abigail decided to stop at a convenience store at the intersection of Mount Avery and Eastern Shore, where she and Zac had accidentally met. She paused for a moment,
LOVE: Revenge in Disguise Chapt 37: A Couple of Disturbia
"What are you two doing here?" Sidney asked, glaring at the two lovebirds who had scrambled to their feet at her arrival. Sidney suspected them, but from what she could see, nothing was going on between them. "Hey... you're here, how did you sleep?" Abby answered Sidney's question with another question calmly, as if nothing had happened between her and Zac a few minutes ago. Abby didn't want to be rude to her. For her, anyway, Sidney was one of the obstacles to all her Zac-related plans. Hearing Abigail's question, Sidney rolled her eyes, then glared at her boyfriends. "Did you guys leave me on purpose?" she asked, to which Abigail only replied with a snort of laughter. "I didn't have the heart to wake you up; you looked so tired you fell asleep," Zac replied, not looking at Abby. He didn't want Sidney to get suspicious and then attack Abby with cynical accusations. Zac had made enough trouble that could cause Abigail to stay away from him. The
