Chapter 239 The Mastermind Behind the Car Accident
Abigail calmly flashed a faint smile and said, "Well, what can I do? Your 'Greg' just likes me."
That remark hit Olivia right in her weak spot!
From childhood to adulthood, what she was most proud of was her appearance and having a aunt, Elaine, who married into a wealthy family.
So, she had always been the object of admiration.
In her life, she had only been frustrated by two people: one was Gregory, and the other was Abigail.
In front of Gregory, her looked had no appeal at all. No matter how much she hinted, Gregory wouldn't even spare her a glance.
What she couldn't get no matter how hard she tried, Abigail got effortlessly! How could she not hate her?
Olivia sneered, "Abigail, Gregory likes you only because of your looks. Can you guarantee that he will always love only you?"
Olivia knew men well and knew they all had flaws. They often crave what they don't have.
How could a man like Gregory, who holds immense power, be satisfied with submitting to just one woman for his entire life?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a bit smug. "Just wait, one day Gregory will get tired of you!"
Olivia thought Abigail would feel hurt and sad after hearing this. But to her surprise, Abigail seemed completely unbothered and even smiled more deeply.
"At least, no one can predict the future. I only know that I still have this appearance, and you..." Abigail's eyes lightly swept over Olivia, showing no emotion.
But in Olivia's eyes, this was blatant mockery!
She immediately became furious, quickly walked up to Abigail, and raised her hand to slap her. "What did you say? Abigail, you bitch, go to hell!"
The situation happened so suddenly that almost everyone was stunned.
Abigail couldn't help but take two steps back to avoid Olivia's attack.
But Olivia seemed to have gone mad, almost losing control of her emotions.
Seeing that her slap didn't land on Abigail's face, the anger in her chest burned even more fiercely. She screamed and rushed at Abigail again.
Abigail frowned slightly, just about to kick her away, when a tall figure suddenly blocked her.
The man's well-defined hand tightly gripped Olivia's wrist and forcefully flung it away.
When Olivia saw who it was, her pupils couldn't help but contract.
"Greg," Olivia called out.
Gregory coldly glanced at her, a hint of bloodthirsty killing intent flashing in his deep eyes. "Olivia? Have you forgotten what I said before?"
Facing those icy eyes, Olivia couldn't stop trembling. A fear and tremor from the soul rose from the bottom of her heart, quickly spreading throughout her body.
She nervously swallowed, her trembling voice carrying a hint of unwillingness. "Greg, I didn't."
Gregory didn't bother to listen to her explanation. He turned to look at Abigail, his eyes full of concern. "Abigail, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
Abigail gently shook her head and smiled, "No, you came just in time."
Hearing her say this, Gregory's heart finally relaxed a bit.
He put his arm around Abigail's shoulder, pulling her into his embrace, and softly comforted her, "It's okay, let's go home."
"Okay." Abigail nodded with a smile and then said goodbye to Tricia.
Olivia was almost completely ignored.
She watched the two of them leave, embracing each other, and couldn't help but grit her teeth, the anger and jealousy in her eyes almost overflowing.
She kept today's hatred in her heart. Soon, she would make Abigail understand the consequences of offending her.
Thinking of what she was going to do next, a hint of viciousness flashed across Olivia's face.
On the other side, Abigail followed Gregory back to the car, lazily stretched, and leaned on his shoulder.
"Mr. White, why are you here?" Abigail asked.
Gregory's expression didn't change. "Just happened to be here for business."
Sitting in the driver's seat, Leo couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard this.
Who was it that, upon hearing Mrs. White was coming here for dinner, immediately canceled his client meeting and rushed over?
Mr. White's skill at lying had really reached new heights. He did it with a completely straight face! Leo couldn't help but be impressed by his ability.
Just as he was thinking this, a chill ran down his spine, and he shivered violently.
Leo instinctively glanced up, looking toward the rearview mirror, and immediately met Gregory's cold eyes. He suddenly felt a chill, slowly creeping up his spine.He couldn't help but shiver again and dared not think any more.
At this moment, Abigail was leaning against Gregory's shoulder with her eyes closed, completely unaware of the undercurrents in the car.
Gregory turned his head to look at her. His gaze fell on her face, and his eyes immediately softened.
He reached out and gently patted Abigail's back, adjusting his position to make her sleep more comfortably.
Just as they were about to arrive home, Gregory's phone suddenly rang. The pleasant ringtone was particularly noticeable in the quiet car.
The sleeping Abigail frowned slightly and let out a soft moan of discomfort.
Gregory glanced at the caller ID, quickly pressed the answer button, and covered Abigail's ear.
He deliberately lowered his voice, afraid of disturbing Abigail's rest.
"What's up?" said Gregory.
On the other end of the line, Henry couldn't help but wail. "Gregory, aren't you being too heartless? Can't I call you if there's nothing wrong?"
Gregory said, "Speak quickly, or I'll hang up."
Henry snorted and got to the point. "Didn't you ask me to investigate the person responsible for Abigail's car accident a few days ago? I've found out."
Gregory lowered his eyes, his thin lips slightly parted, his tone cold. "Who is it?"
Henry quickly reported his findings. "It's Jessica."
A hint of coldness flashed in Gregory's eyes. "Jessica?"
Even through the phone, Henry could feel Gregory's anger at this moment. He couldn't help but laugh, "That's right, it's her! I originally thought that after marrying Roman as she wished, she wouldn't target Abigail anymore, but I was wrong."
Henry silently sighed in his heart, it was really too scary.
Jessica looked gentle and kind on the outside. Who would have thought that behind the scenes, she was so insidious? Who knew what Roman saw in Jessica?
Gregory took a deep breath, trying to suppress the violent emotions surging within him, and gave a few instructions to the person on the other end of the line.
Henry, who had been lazily lying on the sofa in the club's private room, suddenly sat up straight upon hearing these words.
He swallowed, a bit shocked, "Gregory, are you serious?"
'Isn't this a bit too ruthless?' Henry thought to himself.
