A crazy rainstorm hitst night. Thunder and lightning were going wild outside Regal Riverside, and the rain wasing down like a waterfall.
Alexander''s eyes snapped open. The TV was barely audible over the storm. He grabbed the remote and cranked up the volume.
Out of nowhere, the vi door swung open. Nathan barged in, dragging someone along.
"Mr. Kennedy, we caught this person sneaking around outside. What do you want us to do?" Nathan asked.
Alexander turned to look. Nathan tossed the person to the floor. It was Abigail.
She was soaked to the bone. She shook out her short hair and got up from the ground.
Irritated, she said, "Who was sneaking around? I was just passing by. You guys grabbed me without knowing the facts. Watch out, I might sue you for kidnapping!" Alexander gave her a once-over and said, "Looks like you''ve recovered."
Abigail sneered and ignored him.
Nathan chimed in, "We''ve seen you several times before, throwing stones at the window. Still denying it?"
Abigail shot him a look, "Got any proof?"
Nathan replied, "I saw it with my own eyes."
Abigail snapped back, "Well, I saw you picking up hookers with my own eyes!"
Nathan was taken aback for a second, then retorted, "Stop talking nonsense!"
"You started it." Ignoring her wet clothes, she walked over, plopped down opposite Alexander, and crossed her legs. "Anyway, you guys hurt me by mistake. Compensate me! If you don''t pay me $200 million, I''m not leaving." Just as Nathan was about to call her shameless, Alexander stopped him with a look. Nathan had to swallow his words and quietly left the vi.
Abigail nced at Alexander coldly and sneered, "Didn''t you nevere home before? Now you''re pretending to be all sentimental?"

She followed Alexander every day and knew he came home every night. Now she seized the opportunity to mock him. Alexander looked at her expressionlessly, not bothering to argue.
Abigail looked around the empty room, and a wave of anger and sadness rose in her chest.
She scoffed, "How does it feel to be alone? How does it feel to be abandoned? But this is just the beginning. There''s a long way for you to go." She continued, "Quinn doesn''t want you anymore. She''s hiding. You''ll never find her in this lifetime. Serves you right."Owned by N?velDrama.Org.
Finally, there was a flicker of emotion in Alexander''s eyes. He asked eagerly, "Do you know where she is?"
Abigail rolled her eyes at him, looking at him as if he was an idiot. She said irritably, "If I knew where she was, would I still be sitting here?"
But then she remembered the main issue and asked seriously, "Alexander, tell me the truth. Is she still alive?"

"Yes, she''s still alive." His response didn''t seem directed at Abigail; it was more like a quiet admission to himself.
Abigail was stunned. Although she didn''t know if he was telling the truth, she had never believed Quinn was dead, so she readily epted Alexander''s words.
"I knew she was still alive," Abigail affirmed once more. "She must be hiding somewhere I don''t know, secretlyughing at you."
Alexander closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Abigail, get out before I lose my temper."
Abigail, also angered, abruptly stood up and red at Alexander. "Who are you pretending to be noble for? If it weren''t for Quinn, do you think I''d want toe here?"
She continued, "I really don''t know what you''re so proud of. What do you have now? You''re like a stray dog. It''s hrious. Can you even find one person close to you now?" Alexander''s gaze grew colder with each word Abigail said.
As Abigail spoke, her spine started to tingle, and her tone weakened a bit. "If you had treated Quinn well back then, at least you''d have someone who truly loves you now. It''s your own fault that you lost her. Who can you me? Why are you ring at me? Did I say anything wrong?"
She finished speaking in one breath and quickly ran towards the door.
