Semua Bab Abigail's Absent Husband Is A CEO: Bab 1071 - Bab 1080

Abigail always had Emma's best interests at heart. Xander could see she was torn. "Don't worry about what others might say," he said. "Just do what feels right to you."She managed a small smile. "It's hard. With everyone watching and judging, standing up for what you believe can be tough." She was not sure about everyone else, but she often felt pressured. She figured Emma might feel the same way."We should get going," Xander urged.She nodded, glancing briefly at Paxton.Paxton had been with Xander for years, even longer than she had known Xander. Because Xander valued her, Paxton treated her with respect. In contrast, Dr. Sander, despite her years with Xander, showed Abigail no respect and was reassigned with just a word from Xander. Ron's bodyguards badmouthing Emma and the lack of respect they showed her made it obvious: Ron never respected Emma in front of them.Abigail's heart ached for Emma, and she felt an overwhelming sense of helplessness. While she yearned to help, sh

The apartment that Xander bought at Lakeside did not have a home theater, unlike his residential units at The HC Residences and Monsoon Villa. However, he still bought a set of projection equipment.Xander and Abigail could enjoy a cinema-like viewing experience at home. That was much better than many ordinary households' projection equipment.Xander said, "I don't want to watch at home. I want to go to the cinema with you."Abigail responded, "It's almost 11 o'clock at night now, and we have to work tomorrow. How about we go to the cinema tomorrow night instead? You should rest well tonight."Xander raised his hand to gently stroke her head. "Let's just go tonight."He thought, 'I don't have much time left. This might be the first and last time.'Abigail did not know why Xander was so stubborn. But since he wanted to go to the cinema, she would accompany him....The nearest cinema to them was in the mixed-use development just outside their residential area. It was less than f

After a brief pause, Paxton spoke again, "I heard that Emma vomited blood and died in Ron's arms. Now, he's gone insane and is holding her dead body without intending to let go."Xander had advised Ron not to do something he would regret, but Ron did not listen. And that was why he made such a terrible mistake. Xander responded, "You can leave now."Paxton said, "Okay."As soon as Paxton left, Abigail immediately walked toward Xander. "It's getting late. We should go home now."She did not ask Xander what Paxton had told him about. She believed if it was something that Xander could share with her, he would surely tell her.Abigail held Xander's hand with their fingers interlocking tightly, as if to feel his heartbeat. She said, "The moon is full tonight."Xander responded, "It is."They then walked back slowly while holding their hands tightly.After a few steps, Xander stopped and said, "Abigail, something happened to Emma."A chill ran down Abigail's spine as she responded,

Abigail continued thinking to herself, 'Because I took those criticisms to heart, I became afraid, backed down, and couldn't save Emma once more. And she could no longer see the beautiful side of this world again...'Ron coldly laughed. "My feelings for her weren't love? I only have unreasonable possessiveness for her? How long have you known Emma? Who are you to say this about me?"Abigail did not want to argue with him further. "Let go of Emma. She's hurting."All Ron could think about was the words "unreasonable possessiveness". He could not hear every other thing that Abigail said. He responded, "Countless women wanted to sleep with me. I could sleep with many different women every day. But I didn't... I was always loyal to Emma."During the months she had been away from me, I've had needs. And I've taken care of them myself. I didn't touch any other women. If this wasn't love, tell me, what was it?"Abigail coldly and firmly replied, "You're saying that not sleeping with othe

Ron continued saying, "Back then, many people used to call me a lunatic. But only you said I wasn't a lunatic. You also said that everyone was afraid of me, but you weren't and that you'd always be with me. Did you say those things just to please me?"Emma, wake up. Tell me, since when did you start thinking about escaping from me? Are you deaf or mute? I'm asking you a question. Why won't you answer me? Emma, do you think I won't do anything to you just because you don't speak?"As he spoke, he lowered his head to violently kiss Emma's cold lips.After kissing for some time, he finally stopped. He shook her as he said, "Emma, you bitch. Do you think you can escape from me just because you're dead?"He then held her face and caressed it very carefully. "Emma, I've told you that you belong to me even if you died. You can't escape me even after you're dead."He tightly pressed her icy body against his. "Should I bury you at home? Or should I burn you into ashes and swallow you bit b
