Chapter 58

Jonathan's face turned sour all of a sudden. "I don't know what you're talking about, Abigail." He wasas stubborn as a mule and still refused to admit his faults. Abigail couldn't be bothered to talk to himany longer, so she turned to leave. However, Jonathan then grabbed her arm. "I'm being serious,Abigail. Let's forget about what happened five years ago, and let's start over again, okay?"

"No. I don't have a habit of going back to my exes." Abigail wriggled her way out of his grip beforewalking off and ignoring him. But Jonathan wasn't about to give up just yet. "I can't forget you, Abigail.As long as you agree to this, I don't mind the children that you've had with other men. You can handthose children to the Kain family, and we can give birth to our own. I will invest in the Kain Family'sbusiness, and I won't stop you from using the Fraser Family's funds to care for the children. I—"

"I don't agree!" When Greg saw that Abigail had left for a long while without coming back, he walkedover to replace Jonathan badgering Abigail. It seemed like Jonathan had taken care of the issues with hisbusiness overseas.

Greg's gaze turned cold, and Jonathan couldn't help but shudder when he heard Greg's voice. "UncleGreg," Jonathan uttered.

"Hmph. Do you still remember that I'm your uncle? I'm not about to let my daughter fall into the handsof the Fraser Family," Greg uttered. Jonathan froze upon hearing the other man's words. "Yourdaughter? Aren't you…"

"Aren't I what?" Greg had always suspected that there was something wrong with the DNA report, sohe narrowed his eyes when he noticed Jonathan's behavior. Jonathan quickly lowered his head inorder to conceal the surprise in his eyes. Greg's gaze darkened a little. "It's nothing," Jonathan replied.

"You should head home soon, then. Victoria's probably waiting." Greg spoke in a subtly threateningtone. As much as Jonathan didn't want to leave, he still walked off quietly. "You need to stay away fromhim," Greg uttered flatly.

Abigail nodded. "Are you guys related?"

"Yeah." Greg sat Abigail down on the bench again before he explained to her. "My mom has rather oddhobbies. Other moms may enjoy having pet cats or dogs at home, but my mom enjoys adoptingchildren. When she was 18, there was a really serious flood in one of the nearby areas, and a four orfive-year-old child had lost her parents in that flood. My mom begged my grandma to take the younggirl in, and that young girl became my elder sister. My grandma didn't agree to this back then, but mymom managed to convince my grandma in the end. My mom is only 13 or 14 years older than myeldest sister. However, she's technically still my sister."

Abigail seemed to understand the situation a little better after hearing Greg's explanation. "Thatexplains why the Fraser Family's business has been surviving for so long. It's because Global Inc. hasbeen supporting them all along, huh?"

"Yeah. My mother is really protective of those who are in need, so she offered to help out after mysister married into the Fraser Family. But the Frasers…" Greg shook his head. Abigail knew what themen in the Fraser Family could be like.

"Why don't you talk to your sister about it?" Abigail asked.

"I have no right to say anything about her relationship. My sister likes Rueben Fraser. She is willing toact dumb even if she knows that he has other women out there. What can we do about that? As longas the Frasers don't go overboard with their actions, both my mom and I would just let it slide withoutasking too much. We'd probably talk about it if my sister speaks up."

It was rare for Greg to talk to others about such things. The public often assumed that Valerie hadgiven birth to her first child when she was 13 or 14, but the Buckley Family had never clarified anything.Right then, Abigail was no longer an outsider to Greg. Furthermore, she had her share of disputes withJonathan, so he felt the need to tell her about it. "By the way, you should stay away from Jonathan.That brat will have to call my daughter his cousin. I don't think you'd self-sabotage to a point where youshift yourself one generation lower to be the same as your daughter's, right?"

Greg had never thought that having Jonathan as his nephew was something to be proud of, but he wasoverjoyed by that fact right then. Abigail frowned when she realized that Greg was indirectly talking badabout her. "I'm not your wife. Why are you talking about these generations in your family?"

"But it's a fact that your daughters exist. As long as they are my daughters, Jonathan will have to callthem his cousins." Greg's smile widened the more he talked about it. Abigail felt like he was justdragging her into his family drama. "Alright. Let's stop talking about him." Abigail wasn't that interestedin Jonathan, so she ended the topic there and then.

Since it was about time to board the plane, they headed to the boarding gates.

Meanwhile, after Emma received the news that Jonathan was coming home today, she dressed herselfup and headed to the airport. "Jonathan!" She leaped directly toward him, but he managed to dodgeher just in time. In comparison to Abigail's simple and plain dressing, Emma was a lot more flashy anddramatic with her style.

Jonathan knitted his brows together as he found himself disgusted by her strong perfume scent. "Didyou pour an entire bottle of perfume onto your body?"

"No! Didn't you say that you liked my perfume?" Emma pouted and put on a pitiful face. It seems likeJonathan has changed a lot after leaving the country.

Jonathan used to replace it cute when Emma pouted, but all he could think of was Abigail's cold andhaughty expression right then. He suddenly felt like it was more satisfying to dominate a woman likeAbigail. "Since when did I say I like your perfume? It smells so cheap!" Jonathan walked past her.

Emma froze for a moment. She barely had the time to understand why she was being scolded beforeJonathan had walked a distance away from her, and she hurriedly chased after him. "What is it,Jonathan? Were you too tired after the plane ride? I'll give you a massage, okay?"

"I need to go to the company, so I'll get a cab. You can go home," he uttered.

"Do you not love me anymore, Jonathan?" Emma could see a hint of disdain in the man's eyes. Is heabandoning me right now? What's going on? Could he have found another woman overseas? Emmapanicked immediately. That can't be! I'm not going to let anyone take Jonathan away from me! Abigailis showing off in front of me now, so I'll have to replace a way to overpower Abigail and crush her under myfeet.

Jonathan felt even more disgusted after seeing the way Emma was acting. "Are you done? I'mexhausted after being on the plane for a whole day, and you're now asking me these idiotic andpointless questions. Can you do something else other than asking whether I love you or not?" He didn'tbother to be polite with her anymore.

A layer of moisture formed in Emma's eyes. "Jonathan, I…"

"That's enough. You can go home now. I'll talk to you when I have the time." He hailed a cab and leftright after that. This was the first time Jonathan had left Emma alone just like that, and she was sofurious that she stomped her foot on the ground in anger. "I want you to get someone to run aninvestigation on Jonathan, Mom. Tell me if he was with another girl when he came back here." Emmagave a call to Sasha.

When Sasha heard her daughter's voice, she was anxious for a moment. "Did you and Jonathan havea fight, Emma?"

"Jonathan doesn't want me anymore. This never happened in the past. I'm sure he has another womanout there, Mom. Don't you have friends who work in the security department in the airport? Help mecheck on him. I want to replace out who flirted with my man," Emma uttered in a whiny tone.

Sasha had never been one to disregard her daughter's wishes, so she ordered others to check onJonathan right after ending the call. She was furious when she found out that Jonathan had metAbigail. "Emma, Jonathan didn't interact with other women as he was busy with work while overseas.He didn't have time for anything else. However, he bumped into Abigail when he was at the airport, andthey seemed to have talked to each other for quite a long while."

Greg had been in the grand hall, where it was a little more packed, so the CCTVs couldn't capture himclearly. So, the security staff only sent the CCTV footage of Jonathan and Abigail in front of the toilet.Sasha sent it to Emma. When Emma saw how Jonathan clung to Abigail, she was so furious that shestomped her foot on the ground. "Abigail! It's Abigail again! What does this girl want? Why does shehave to snatch Jonathan away from me?"

Sasha quickly spoke up when she heard her daughter's screams. "Calm down, Emma. You can comehome, and we can plan things out. I can't believe Abigail managed to walk out of Mortimer Village alive.Anyway, you have to make sure Jonathan stays with you, okay? Without Jonathan, you know what ourfamily's status would be like. Your dad might force you to get married to a 50 or 60-year-old just for thesake of getting benefits for the Kain Family. You have to calm down, Emma. You can't fight withJonathan, okay? He's a man, so it's natural for him to exhibit such bad behavior. We'll just have to getrid of Abigail."

"I got it, Mom. I'll come home so that we can plan things out now." Emma was still fuming after sheended the call. When she saw Abigail's haughty expression, she gritted her teeth so firmly that shenearly crushed them. Abigail just can't bear to see me doing well, huh? Emma drove back homeangrily.

At the same time, Abigail had no idea that Emma and her mother were discussing her. After Abigail andGreg got on the plane, they both took a nap. Greg didn't talk to her, so they were both quiet on theflight. The skies had turned dark by the time they arrived at Rorea. Abigail was in a rush to unite withAlissa, so she took a cab directly to Hugh's living quarters. However, the whole place had beenemptied out.

"Where is she?" Greg's gaze darkened. Even Abigail started to feel rather uneasy. She gave Hugh acall, and her heart sank when she realized that his phone was turned off. She immediately contactedthe number that Hugh had left for her.

"Where's Alissa and Hugh?" she asked.

"Mr. Romero has some stuff to deal with, so he went back already, Dr. Kain. Alissa went along withhim." The man's words sounded rather sketchy.

Abigail narrowed her gaze. "Send me your location."

"Dr. Kain, I—"

"Don't make me repeat myself!" Abigail growled. Greg couldn't tear his eyes off of her when he noticedthe fierce aura surrounding her figure. I didn't know how intimidating she could be! The man on the callseemed to be in awe of Abigail, so he sent her his location in the end.

Abigail didn't say much else and simply parted her legs to leave. Greg tagged along behind her withoutasking anything. When it came to the children, Greg had always respected Abigail's choices.

Both of them arrived at the location and found Fred there. He looked like he wanted to run away whenhe saw Abigail, but she blocked his way before he could go anywhere. "Where's Alissa?"
