MasukAbigail witnessed their silly, loving conversation and, for the first time, felt a little jealous not to have a love like theirs. Once they were on stage, people kept coming with gifts line by line, and suddenly, Abigail realised she only had a clutch in her hand.Her expression turned to one of loss as she realised she had forgotten her gift in the house."Oh God! How could I forget the gift? Now what?" She bit her lower lip nervously as she saw almost everyone end up on stage while she was empty-handed. "This is surely going to be embarrassing." She muttered with a deep sigh before something clicked in her mind, "Wait a second, I did not check the car. What if I forget that right there?" "I should have checked." She confidently thought and decided to walk out of the hall when someone noticed her leaving and grabbed her arm. "Hey, are you already leaving?" Abigail looked at the woman and instantly expressed, "No, I just forgot something outside." "Oh, Alright. Just come soon, th
Wedding Hall"Abigail! It's you!" Nataha hugged her immediately, "Girl, you turned gorgeous!" Abigail smiled happily before hugging her tightly and replied warmly, "But not more than a bride."Her words made Natasha and everyone around her chuckle. "Girl, I missed you." Natsaha broke the hug and looked over her. She smiled emotionally and nodded, "I missed you, too. Congratulations on your marriage." "Thank you, and I am glad you are here." "Thanks to you, I can attend this today." Abigail simply expressed."Alright, we should stop being emotional. I don't want to ruin my makeup." Natsha teased, making her chuckle, "That's true. So, where is your groom?" "He is right there." Natsha pointed over the group, "Let's go. I will introduce you to him, and don't be surprised when you see more schoolmates.""You mean our classmates?" She paused. "Yes, now, let's go. They were all excited as this wedding not only brought new connections but was almost like a reunion for old friends as wel
"Friend's wedding?" Byron crossed his arms as he curiously looked over Abigail, whose expression grew doubtful and uneasy even before she was rejected. "Yes, she is my schoolmate and invited me personally to attend her wedding." "I see." He simply gave a curt nod as he never thought the things made her wife happy, not another man, but another long lost friend, before asking, finally curiously, "So, what do you want from me?" He waited for her response, thinking she was nervous to ask him to attend the wedding with her.However, when she opened her mouth, his expression turned disgruntled."I want to attend it, if you don't mind." She finally expressed herself, leaving behind others' thoughts."Alone?" He questioned."Yes, but if you wish, I can take Maggy with me." She expressed her side as she nibbled her lip, thinking, What if he rejected her? Go alone. However, he surely doesn't want to hear that and asked again to confirm."Are you sure? Is that all you got to ask? And let Maggy
Gilbert Mansion"Welcome home, Master." "Welcome home, Madam."Maggy warmly smiled to see Abigail and Byron finally returning to the mansion. Byron simply nodded and entered while Abigail smiled warmly and stopped before her, "Mrs Maggy, how are you?" "I am doing fine. Thank you for asking." Maggy politely expressed, and she extended her hand in a gesture for her to get inside, "You come from a long journey. Please have some rest in your master bedroom first.""Thank you for your hard work." Abigail simply nodded and walked right beside Byron, who was walking before her. Once they entered the master bedroom, Byron changed his clothes and refreshed himself before returning to the office. Meanwhile, Abigail needed to check her email to see if she got any new mail from college.So, she simply walked over to the desk right beside the couch and put the laptop there. She sat on the sofa and opened the laptop to scroll through emails when her eyes landed on a familiar name, and her finger
"Sorry, Boss, the flight got cancelled tonight because of a thunderstorm and continued rain," Martin informed Byron over the phone. "Alright, until I get there, you keep an eye on sister's condition," Byron instructed, making him agree instantly before ending the call. He returned to the bedroom and found Abigail almost finished packing her things.He approached her and announced casually, "The flight got cancelled because of the weather. Stop doing that for now." She looked at him with slight surprise as she did not hear him enter before she ended up nodding, "Alright. I will put this bag in the corner." He hummed quietly and walked towards the bed without saying anything more, as he got an intense headache from the last night and less sleep after learning about his sister, so, as soon as he sat comfortably on the bed, crossing his legs and adjusting his back over the pillow. He fell asleep in that position without even realising. Abigail put the bag in the corner and changed in
Byron returned to the resort when he got a personal call and decided to take it before attending to Abigail."Hello, Byron, I am sorry for disturbing you late at night, but I need to tell you some bad news." The Doctor spoke in an upset tone from the other end of the phone, while Byron stood in the window, holding his cigar, which instantly flickered outside, right there, to hear that, and asked in a gloomy voice, "What happened, doctor?" "Mr Byron, your sister's health began deteriorating from last week, even though we are monitoring her almost every hour. It almost felt like her body and mind stopped helping her anymore." He hesitantly explained, but Byron had heard these kinds of things many times in the past years and dejectedly said, "Doctor, I don't care what she wants. I want her to return to me. I want my sister. Do you get it?" The doctor knew he would not take 'No' for an answer and agreed, "Mr Byron, I always try my best, and I will do that still now, but last hope, depen
