Chapter 21

Elena stepped forward with a smile and slipped off the diamond bracelet on her wrist, fastening it around Abigail’s

“Consider this a gift from me,” Elena said.

Abigail knew Adam was trying to give her a solid backing. She lowered her eyes, hiding the emotion there, and gave a small smile. “Thank you, Mrs.

Fletcher,

Elena feigned displeasure, “Still calling me Mrs. Fletcher? Are we really that distant?”

Abigail tock a deep breath and said, “Elena,”

Elena immediately beamed and looked over at Ralph, saying, “Looks like your grandpa gave you what you always wanted – a little sister, in’t you going to say something to Abby

od his tongue against his cheek, forcing down the anger rising in his chest as he let out a cold laugh. “Abby, welcome to our family

Ralph pressed

Abigail lowered her eyes and responded softly, “Thanks, Ralphie.”

At the party, Cillian raised his glass. “Thank you all for coming to celebrate my father’s birthday. Here’s to his health and many more years ahead

As his voice faded, Adam came down the stairs flanked by Abigail on his left and Ralph on his right.

The guests below caught sight of the trio and began whispering among themselves.

Daniella’s eyes were filled with jealousy, but her face showed nothing but tearful grievance.

Bianca patted the back of Daniella’s hand gently, her voice full of sympathy. “Dani, it’s not a bad thing for Mr. Fletcher to see Abby as a granddaughter. Ralph is now your lancé.”

Of course Daniella knew that. But that didn’t stop her from resenting the fact that Abigail had Adam’s support.

“Mom, I’m fine. I’m really happy for Abby. It’s just that Abby doesn’t like me, Daniella said.

Bianca felt uneasy. Her gaze landed on Abigail beside Adam, and the thought that Abigail would rather cory up to Elena than call her “Mom” stung Bianca felt that Abigail wasn’t thoughtful at all compared to Daniella.

“So what if she doesn’t like you? As long as Mom, Dad, Chris, and I love you, that’s all that matters,” Stephen said with disdain. The look he gave Abigail

felt like it could cut

Daniella smiled sweetly, “Stevie, Mom, Dad, you’re all so good to me. I really love you guys”

Her words made Bianca feel even more comforted. Bianca looked at Abigail again and thought, ‘Whatever, it’s not like Abigail’s my only daughter. Compared to her, Dan is so much more thoughtful”

As soon as Adam made his way downstairs, someone came over to greet him and casually probe into Abigail’s relationship with the Fletcher family. “Mr. Fletcher, who is this young lady?”

Adam chuckled, “This is Abigail Gibson. She’s like a granddaughter to me. Abby, this is Reuben Gallagher

Hearing the surname Gallagher, Abigail recalled that Samuel’s mother’s maiden name was also Gallagher

“Mr. Gallagher, it’s a pleasure to meet you, she said with a smile.

Adam didn’t hold back when introducing Abigail. Everyone present had to show respect to Adam, and just like that, Abigail instantly became the center

of attention.

“Mrs. Fletcher, you’re too kind,” Daniella said, her face flushing with shyness as she glanced at Ralph.

Ralph looked back at her and smiled, “Dani, what did you prepare?”

Elena looked even more pleased, clearly delighted that the girl she had her eye on as her daughter in law was so talented.
