Revenge After Prison Never Forgiven (Abigail) novel Chapter 15

Chapter 15

Bianca blurted out instinctively, “Who else could it be if not Dani?”

As soon as she said it, her face went pale. She stared at Stephen in disbelief. “You mean Abby? That’s impossible.”

Stephen didn’t want to believe it either, but he couldn’t keep it from Blanca. “Mom, Abigail said she got her acceptance letter from Vanguard University three years ago right before she was sent to prison.”

Bianca’s body went limp, and she collapsed backward.

“Mom.” Daniella came running from downstairs, her face streaked with tears as she cried out for Bianca.

The whole place turned chaotic. The family doctor stepped out of the room and said, “Mrs. Gibson fainted due to emotional stress. It’s nothing serious.”

Stephen, waiting outside, finally let out a breath. Daniella’s voice was choked as she asked, “Can I go see her now?”

The doctor nodded. “Yes, Ms. Gibson, go on in.”

Daniella rushed in, her face filled with worry and panic.

Stephen saw the doctor out, then turned to glance at Abigail’s door, still shut tight. He thought, ‘Mom fainted because of her, and there’s no way Abigail deliberately not coming out.‘ didn’t hear all that noise. She’s doing this on purpose–she’s

That thought made the guilt Stephen had been feeling for

Certain reasons harden back into cold indifference

Meanwhile, Abigail was typing on her phone, lines of code flashing quickly across the screen. Soon, the display began to shift in color as her fingers moved. She had her headphones on, completely focused.

The next morning, Abigail arrived at the office early. She didn’t like staying at Gibson Villa any longer than necessary and preferred being at the company.

As work hours approached, the Development Lab slowly filled with people. Since Abigail

sat in a corner, no one noticed her unless they walked right up.

When Leon showed up, he actually thought Abigail wouldn’t come to

work today.

He had been waiting by the elevator for quite a while, holding several large shopping bags filled with gifts for Abigail.

Everything in those bags was handpicked after Leon had consulted his baby sister the night before he made sure to get things girls usually liked.

He thought, ‘It’s already work hours, and Abigail still hasn’t shown up?‘

Leon didn’t expect that the moment he walked in with the bags, he’d see Abigail already sitting in a corner.

“Abigail, when did you get here?” Leon asked, surprised and delighted.

Abigail looked at him, puzzled. “I got here at seven. Why?”

Leon fell silent, thinking, ‘She’s really that dedicated? Here at seven? No wonder I couldn’t find her at the elevator.‘

“It’s nothing. These are for you. See if you like them,” Leon said as he handed her the bags.

Abigail frowned slightly. “Thanks, but I don’t need them. I didn’t do anything to deserve this.” She didn’t want to take advantage of anyone.

Leon let out a dramatic groan. “You saved us a huge headache yesterday–how’s that not worth a thank–you? This is me showing appreciation. Just take them. Tim’s gonna be looking for you any minute now.”

Chapter 15

Speak of the devil–Timothy showed up right then to find Abigail, striding in just in time to see the pile of snacks. His face darkened instantly,

“Leon, what are you up to again? Didn’t I say no snacks in the Development Lab?” Timothy demanded.

Leon looked innocent. “They haven’t been opened yet. You can’t blame me,

Timothy couldn’t be bothered to argue. He had more important thin

through. So Timothy decided to come in person.
