Abigail’s Second Life

Simond had been investigating for almost a week. Finally, he discovered sleads.

"These three individuals are subordinates of a man named Nick. Nick holds considerable influence in Perou and

conducts extensive business. Everyone in Perou is willing to appease him. Most importantly, the strength he

displays may not align with his actual power."

In other words, Nick withholds his full capability.

As for the extent of his concealment, | fear no one but him knows.

But there's one thing for sure. Considering Nick dared to take action at the airport, we must not underestimate

his strength.

"So, it will be tough to fight him?" Abigail's voice turned serious.

"Quite. It's okay. | will think of a plan," Simond spoke in a deep voice. After all, this was an international affair.

Even if they wanted to confront Nick, they needed a legitimate reason. Otherwise, neither he nor Abigail could

return to Eswadia.

"Tell Martin to prepare in advance. Nick will definitely contact his research institute's higher-ups. The life of a

researcher will be insignificant once real confrontation breaks out," Simond said before hanging up. Abigail

sought out Andrew with her phone in her hand.

Andrew sat in front of the computer and was engrossed in his work. Abigail felt overwhelmed when she looked at

the screen filled with code.

"I need to discuss something with your father for a while. We need to—"

"Shh." Andrew raised his finger and placed it on his lips. "Someone is monitoring us."

"What?!" Abigail's scalp instantly tightened.

Andrew picked up a notebook next to him and wrote a sentence.

'l have just discovered today that everything in our house that's connected to the inteis being monitored,

including our phones and computers.*

A chill ran down Abigail's spine when she thought of the phone call she had with Simond. She stood next to

Andrew and wrote.

'l just had a phone call with a friend, and he conveyed simportant information to me. We might be in

danger, so we need to find a way to leave this place."

After writing down his message, Andrew held the pen and tapped slightly on the paper.

'I'm trying to find a way to breach the system. Hold your horses. Let's pretend we don't know anything and just

say whatever we need to say.’

At this moment, Andrew appeared particularly astute. search the Findwebsite on Goggle to access

chapters of early and in the highest quality.

Seeing this, Abigail wondered if she would be doomed if Andrew wasn't skilled with a computer.

Has everything truly been predetermined in the depths of fate?

During lunch, Abigail deliberately repeated what Simond had said to Martin.

Martin looked at Andrew. One look and one understood the message he was trying to convey.

"I don't know much about Nick and even less about him as a businessman." Martin tilted his head and said flatly.

Indeed, he lacked knowledge in the matters of business.

"Do you think your boss will truly be swayed by him?" Abigail asked with sconcern.

Upon hearing that, Martin pondered momentarily before replying, "I don't know, but doesn't that imply that he's

giving up a large fortune if he ditcheswhen I've progressed this far in my research?" Abigail fell silent. Things

like interest can always be forsaken, especially since Martin is already old.

But of course, we're merely putting on an act for now.

After finishing their meal, Martin decided to call his boss, Richard Koney.

Abigail sat beside him and watched as he put the call on speaker.

Before long, the call was connected.

Martin conversed fluently with the other party in Aktani, "Richard, | heard someone had gone to see you because

of a woman who cto my research institute. Is that true?"

As someone devoted to research, he had no emotional intelligence whatsoever.

Richard was clearly displeased. "Mr. Colleen, your duty is to conduct research. As for the rest, it is none of your

concern."

"This concerns my personal safety. Of course, | have to care about it. Don't you think there's something wrong

with what you just said?" Martin sneered.

"Mr. Colleen, my suggestion is that you obey the instructions of the person who comes to seek you and handle

that woman from Eswadia accordingly. We have been working together for so long. Are you still not aware of

what kind of person | am?" Richard's tone carried a hint of impatience.

"She is valuable to me," Martin replied bluntly.

Upon hearing that, Richard made a sound of acknowledgment. "So, you won't follow the instructions given by the

other party? Mr. Colleen, | consider you and your son as my family. After learning about your passion for

research, | invested heavily in you. I'm your friend, but you're treatinglike a stranger for the sake of an

insignificant woman from Eswadia. That isn't a wise decision, is it?"

"Her reputation in Eswadia is quite prominent. If something happens to her under my watch, | fear the Eswadian

embassy will take action against us. As you know, Eswadia is highly protective of its citizens," Martin reminded

him calmly.

Richard fell silent.

Since this matter will involve the Eswadian embassy, | have no choice but to consider Martin's words.

After all, I'm still conducting pharmaceutical business with Eswadia. Among all the countries, only Eswadia has

the largest market with a constant flow of orders.

It's also because of my business with Eswadia that | have made a fortune. Indeed, it would be unwise to harm

another well-known female designer from Eswadia.

Moreover, the business in Eswadia is endless.

Although the money from Nick is tempting, it will still result in losses if we look at it from a long-term

perspective.

Thinking of this, Richard said, "I will seriously consider your words, Mr. Colleen." After that, he hung up the

phone.

Martin breathed a sigh of relief. "I suppose you know what you should do now."

Abigail nodded.

She immediately had Simond contact the embassy. If anything happened to her here, Nick and his subordinates

wouldn't be able to escape without consequences. However, Martin felt that the situation was still unfavorable.

Even if Richard doesn't cooperate with him, Nick will find other ways.
