Reborn as Mr.CEO's Fat Wife-Chapter 808: Did the Second Young Master’s Villa Hide Someone?
Chapter 808: Chapter 808: Did the Second Young Master’s Villa Hide Someone?
A dinner where some were overly shocked, some had indigestion, and some were beyond words, only the main character was blissfully unaware, successfully disgustred three rival lovers, and in the end, still clung to Abigail and refused to leave. Eventually, he was half-dragged out of Abigail’s villa by Joshua Piers and Benjamin Jones.
Pullan, agile in his movements, went to support his boss, only to find that their young master, who was just now drunkenly cooing to his lady, sidestepped him. Then, the person who just now had trouble walking suddenly stood up straight and elegantly walked towards the villa behind Abigail.
As for Joshua Piers and Benjamin Jones, who threw Brandon out, "..." That move was really damn slick!
Pullan, who witnessed the whole process, "..."
He really thought his young master was heavily drunk just now. He was indeed too naive.
The naive Pullan followed his steady-stepped young master until he was picked up by Kelvin Max back to the villa before he finally relaxed and walked back, only to run into Abigail who had just seen off the guests. He hurriedly greeted her respectfully.
As Abigail’s gaze fell on Pullan following the sound, she just stared at him without speaking, making Pullan inexplicably nervous. Could the young lady know about the young master pretending to be drunk?
Just as he was about to explain for his young master, Abigail spoke first, "Where did you take Miss Locke?"
Pullan tensed up, suddenly remembering the order the young lady had previously given him, to make sure Miss Locke was taken to her boyfriend’s house.
But the problem is Sophia Patel is now at the young master’s villa.
This is just bloody mess!
It’s too bloody, how is he supposed to answer today to survive!
Pullan opened his mouth, tried hard to swallow, his Adam’s apple moved but he couldn’t produce a word. Pullan never thought that his quick-wittedness would be of no use at a crucial moment.
Pitiful, it was his most pitiful moment.
Seeing Pullan stuttering and unable to speak, Abigail became even more certain of her thoughts, gave him a cold look, and then walked towards Brandon’s villa.
Pullan hurriedly followed, "Madam, please listen to me, it’s not what you think, it’s—"
"Shut up!" Abigail was exceptionally irritable. She thought that Pullan, having followed her for so long, had some feelings of companionship towards her, but unexpectedly he knew everything yet still conspired with their young master to keep her in the dark.
Did they all take her for a fool?
An indescribable anger surged in her chest, making her feel as if she was being scorched by a fierce fire, her steps became fierce and fast, almost rushing to Brandon’s villa.
But once there, she paused, frozen in place.
The silly boy Pullan saw the opportunity and stretched out his hand to block Abigail, "Madam, you listen to me, it’s really not what you think..."
Abigail’s suppressed anger was stirred again, she didn’t know where the strength came from but she pushed Pullan away, walked up to the door just as it was about to knock, the villa’s door happened to be pulled open.
Brandon, still smelling of alcohol, saw it was Abigail, his eyes lit up and he reached to hug her, "Abigail, I knew you couldn’t bear to leave me."
But before he could touch Abigail, she dodged to the side.
Embracing emptiness, Brandon Piers felt very dissatisfied and stammered out a call for Abigail.
Normally, Abigail would have been softened by the repeated calls of her name, but now she only felt annoyed and especially so thinking of him sweet-talking her while another woman was hidden in the mansion behind him...
Abigail didn’t want to imagine further, she gave the man a cold glance, then reached out to pull Brandon aside, and looked inside as she let the door open.
It was then Brandon suddenly remembered something, "Abigail, listen to me..."
Abigail had not been so cold-hearted at first, but the moment the man spoke, it felt as though her heart was ruthlessly stabbed. She turned and looked at Brandon with a chilling gaze.
Brandon swallowed the words he was about to say under her stare, sobered up from the alcohol, and tried to grab Abigail’s hand but she forcefully shook it off, looking somewhat hurt as she asked, "Abigail, what exactly is wrong?"
Seeing the aggrieved look in Brandon’s eyes, a twinge of pity arose in Abigail’s heart, then she thought of the reactions of these two, her face hardened as she asked, "Is Sophia Patel here with you?"
Brandon probably guessed what was happening and reluctantly nodded, quickly adding, "It’s not what you think."
"Oh, whether it’s what I think or not, I want to see her first." Saying this, Abigail tried to enter but was pulled back by Brandon.
Abigail turned and saw Brandon shaking his head at her.
Deep down, Abigail never truly believed there was something between Brandon and Sophia Patel, but being continuously stopped, her self-confidence crumbled bit by bit. Her bright peach blossom eyes dimmed, and with a calm voice, she looked at the man, "Are you sure you won’t let me in?"
Brandon’s heart sank, realizing Abigail might have misunderstood, and also understood that if he didn’t let her in today, their relationship might be over. He briskly took a deep breath and firmly held Abigail’s hand, "Come in."
The next moment, Brandon led Abigail into his mansion.
Abigail was somewhat confused by Brandon’s repetitive behaviour, but soon she understood why he didn’t want her to come in.
At the entrance earlier, their view was blocked and didn’t see much, but it was different once inside. They saw Sophia Patel kneeling next to the sofa, with brothers Kelvin Max and Kennan Max standing by her sides, it was unclear what they had done to her, but now Sophia Patel was trembling all over like a sieve, seeing Abigail as if seeing a sobering salvation, "Miss Green, save me, save me..."
But before Sophia Patel could reach Abigail’s feet, she was kicked back by Kennan Max.
The kick wasn’t too hard for Kennan Max, but it was enough to make Sophia Patel cry out in pain, curling back up on the floor, yet her eyes still pleaded towards Abigail.
Abigail, completely not expecting this situation, was stunned. This was not at all the script she had imagined!
Brandon took the opportunity to glare at Kennan Max, then grabbed Abigail, "Abigail, listen to me explain, I didn’t tell him to do it."
Abigail looked at the person on the floor, then back at the innocent-looking man beside her, "What exactly is going on?"
"It’s nothing much, just noticed your attitude towards her was off, so I asked her over to check on the situation," Brandon carefully used the word ’ask’.
Hearing this, Sophia Patel on the floor shook even more, and Abigail also glanced suspiciously at the man. Calling this an invitation? This man must have misunderstood the meaning of ’ask’.
However, the frustration that had been stuck in her chest all day finally eased a bit, her mood became a lot smoother as she looked at the person still seeking her help, "So, have you asked clearly?"
Brandon Piers nodded, then his gaze hardened as he looked at the person on the ground, "Can you explain yourself?"
Sophia Patel trembled all over, but still struggled to nod, only after nodding did tears start to fall heavily, unfortunately no one present cared for her, thus her tears were doomed to be in vain.
Abigail frowned as she watched.
Having cried for a long time and realizing that no one cared, Sophia Patel finally stopped her tears and apologized to Abigail, "I’m sorry, Miss Green, I’m sorry..."
Abigail responded with a wry smile, "Miss Locke, what are you sorry to me for? If you don’t clarify, it seems as if we are bullying you. Speak up, if it’s not your fault, I’ll ask Brandon and the others to apologize to you."
Sophia Patel looked up at Abigail’s expression, trying to find a trace of gentleness, but there was none; her cold eyes were just like Brandon Piers, completely different from the gentle and good-tempered Abigail she had perceived before during Teddy’s early education.
Apparently, the gentle and good-tempered Abigail Green she saw during Teddy’s early education was just a facade.
Sophia Patel was in pain all over, clutching her clothes tightly, knowing that she couldn’t escape tonight’s ordeal and could only sob in explanation, "I’m sorry, Miss Green, I shouldn’t have coveted the young master, the young master has been enormously kind to our family, yet I still coveted him behind his back, deliberately making Miss Green misunderstand that something was between us, and trying to sabotage your relationship with him..."
With every word, Sophia Patel felt more embarrassed, but she saw that those standing above showed no signs of relenting, filling her with resentment. She did not understand why the young master would like a woman like Abigail Green, yet remain indifferent to her, so her apology gradually turned into a confession to Brandon Piers, "Miss Green, I’m sorry I know it’s wrong, but you have loved before, you know the feeling of loving someone, I have admired the young master since I was a child, and have been infatuated with him for a long time..."
"Admire me? Infatuated with me? So you conveniently betrayed me?" Brandon Piers, seeing that Abigail’s expression was off, abruptly interrupted the person who still didn’t know better.
Sophia Patel stiffened, her eyes suddenly widened, obviously not expecting Brandon Piers to bring this up. Startled, she stepped back, shaking her head quickly, "Young master, I didn’t, I didn’t, please listen to me..."
But before she could finish her sentence, Kelvin Max had already thrown a stack of documents in front of her.
Looking down, Sophia Patel saw the contents of those documents, filled with shock and extreme fear, yet she still shook her head towards Brandon Piers, "Young master, listen to me, that incident was really not intentional, I didn’t do it on purpose... I almost died during that incident too, young master..."
"Do you know why you’re still well and alive till today? It’s because I knew you didn’t do it on purpose initially, and almost lost your life because of it as well. But that doesn’t mean you’re completely innocent. But you didn’t know how to behave, and still blatantly flirted in front of my woman," Brandon Piers interrupted Sophia Patel’s defense.
This time with Oliver Piers’ arrest, many hidden maneuvers were exposed, and Sophia Patel’s deeds were also incidentally revealed; Previously, he had suspected that his surgery was leaked by Jeffrey Foster to Oliver Piers, which had led him to such a narrow escape from death.
But it was only later discovered that someone from Benjamin Jones’s expert team was compromised, yet it was actually Sophia Patel who had leaked the specific time of his surgery.
Though it was unintended, it had nearly killed him.
He had originally considered the decades of sacrifice the Locke family had made for the Piers family, and since Sophia Patel had not committed other overstepping behaviors afterwards, he decided not to pursue her. However, she secretly harbored intentions against Abigail here, and even attempted to sow discord between them.
This was something he could not tolerate.
Sophia Patel’s face turned deathly pale; she had been frightened and uneasy for a long time since that incident occurred, even thinking countless times about confessing to Brandon Piers. Yet, after hearing from her father that the leaker had been found, she harbored some hope, continuing to stay in the Piers’ company somewhat guiltily, later on justifying her actions to herself, for she knew the young master could discard anyone, but not her.
This time, seeing a discord between the young master and Abigail Green, she took the opportunity to use it, thinking that if she succeeded, she might win the young master’s favor, yet she hadn’t expected that the young master knew everything, he knew everything... freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Abigail grimaced at the side, realizing that the change in Gills City’s operating room that almost killed Brandon Piers involved not just Benjamin Jones’ team but also this Miss Locke.
What she didn’t expect was that Miss Locke, after doing such a thing to Brandon Piers, could still appear so calmly and innocently before him, even attempting to sow discord among them, and making her angry all day because of it.
Frustrated, Abigail suddenly looked at the pale-faced, trembling Sophia Patel, "Where did that photo in your Facebook Circle come from?"
Brandon Piers was puzzled, "What Facebook Circle?"
Abigail knew that Brandon Piers didn’t have Sophia Patel’s Facebook, so she turned to Pullan.
Previously, as Teddy’s preschool teacher, Sophia Patel had Pullan’s contact info, but now Pullan shook his head innocently, saying he didn’t see anything.
Abigail was startled then suddenly realized that Sophia Patel must have set it visible to her only.
So the purpose of that Facebook post was obviously to provoke her.
Abigail laughed ruefully.
Fooling herself.
Sophia Patel got even more scared by Abigail’s laughter and facing Brandon Piers’s cold gaze, she didn’t dare to be vague, "That... that was a GIF I cut from a video and edited..."
Abigail took a deep breath, "Have someone take her away, I don’t want to see her again."
Looking at her for another second seemed like proof of her own stupidity.
Brandon Piers look toward Kennan Max.
Kennan Max stepped forward to grab Sophia Patel, Sophia Patel panicked, "Second Young Master, please spare me, I can still be useful to you, can’t I? Please..."
"I almost forgot, I originally wasn’t planning to pursue the previous matter, and I won’t this time either, but what you did to Abigail, I can’t forgive, all the preferential treatment the Locke family received from Piers will be canceled, don’t let me see you again." Brandon Piers ordered indifferently.
Sophia Patel panicked, "Second Young Master I was wrong, I really was wrong, please um... um... um..."
Before she could finish, Kennan Max stuffed something in her mouth and took her away.
Kelvin Max, seeing this, tugged at Pullan and pulled the silly boy out of the mansion, leaving all the space for their BOSS and the young madam.
In a blink of an eye, only Abigail and Brandon Piers were left in the living room.
Abigail felt somewhat awkward, thinking about how she inexplicably spent the day angry and even messed up the man’s proposal, feeling a bit guilty.
Seeing Abigail still looking stern, Brandon Piers thought she was unhappy about Sophia Patel’s treatment, and explained softly, "The Locke family has relied on the Piers for decades, and they’ve always lived well because of the Piers. Sophia Patel herself is not very talented, without the protection of the Piers, it would be a real disaster for them to fall from grace."
Abigail responded with a hmm, and couldn’t easily explain that she didn’t mind these things. She glanced at the time, "Well... it’s getting late, I need to go back and be with Teddy."
After speaking, Abigail wanted to escape, but after only a couple steps she was pulled back by Brandon Piers and directly bumped into his solid chest.
Abigail gave a muffled groan of pain and looked up at him annoyedly, just to see Brandon Piers leaning down close to her ear and asking, "Planning to run away like this? You haven’t answered my question this evening."
The warm breath the man exhaled made her head dizzy, and for a moment Abigail forgot which question she hadn’t answered, her eyes watery as she gazed at Brandon Piers, seeming to ask, what?
