Chapter 28 Chapter 28 Timothy said , " The company will reimburse you , alright ? Just get going now . I'll transfer i money to you later . Let's settle the dia final amount ." Hearing that , Abigail finally exhaled in relief . Her tone softened considerably . " Thank you , Mr. Newman , I go to the airport right Arriving at the airport , she found a seat in the waiting area . It was still early , but the place was already bustling with people . Aher sitting for a while , a message from Timothy arrived . Abigail glanced at her phone , and her brows furrowed unconsciously Timothy told her that there would be someone waiting for Abigail in Chesterwick . Everything she needed would be arranged . Of course , Abigail believed that a large corporation wouldn't skimp on money , But she also heard that reimbursements in big companies took forever to process . That probably meant she'd have to cover her own expenses for toiletries and daily itens upfront She sighed inwardly , "I don't have much money to begin with . What if can't even afford a full set of clothes when Then another thought crossed her mind . ' If I start pestering Timothy about this now , he'll probably think I'm being difficult " " Ms. Gibson ? " A male voice rang out from behind . Snapping out of her thoughts , Abigail stood up and turned to face the speaker. The man wore a pair of gold rimmed glasses and stood around 5'11 ". He was dressed in a well - fitted suit and had a refined , scholarly look Abigail eyed the man cautiously , her tone tinged with a subtle wariness . " May I know your name ?! The man seemed to see right through her hesitation . He put on a faint smile that didn't quite reveal his thoughts as he replied , " My name is Jackson Whitt . I'm Mr. Robinson's personal assistant . Come with me. " Whatever tension Abigail felt instantly eased . Part of her had hoped that the man in prison would come, but at the same time , she told herself that it was just another man with the same surname . She didn't believe that there could be something so coincidental . Jackson led Abigail through security . To her surprise , they hadn't even purchased a commercial ticket . Abigail soon realized that they would take a private plane . " A business trip via a private plane ? As far as I know , applying for personal flight routes isn't easy at all she thought , already piecing together how powerful the company might actually be They soon boarded the plane . Jackson guided Abigail through a pair of ornately curved doors . As the doors opened , an expansive lounge came into view , with plush sofas on both sides , coffee tables , and a wide aisle in the center . The Gibson family could be considered wealthy in Cobridge . Though Abigail was never treated kindly in her family , she had flown first class before . But this level of luxury still stunned her . " You can rest here , Jackson said before walking further down the cabin . As he approached another set of doors , they slid open automatically . Once he stepped inside , an engraved metal screen slid shut . Abigail figured it must be a s inside , she froze . small meeting room . The design looked simple and business like . But when she caught sight of the man sitting at the desk So Mr. Robinson is already on board ," she thought , surprised She leaned slightly , trying to glimpse the man's face through the intricately carved divider . Unfortunately , he was turned to the side , facing away . Chapter 281 All she could see was an elegant hand holding a black fountain pen and a pair of long legs under the table , clad in black leather and with red sole Even without seeing his face , she could feel the quiet magnetism radiating from him . Abigail stared at the man for a few seconds . She then backed up slightly and sat down on the nearest couch , har hands nervously clutching hap " Mr. Robinson , she's outside now . " Jackson's voice came from the inner cabin . Hearing Jackson mention her , Abigail instinctively sat up straighter . She figured anyone who could afford such a luxurious plane must be running a highly successful business . She thought to herself , Teed to make a good impression . If I want to stay with Halden Group , this is my chance . " A deep , magnetic voice responded from within , " Mm . Have the flight attendant bring her something to eat . Also , ask her what she needs for the trip . Make a list and send it to Jeremiah . Have him prepare everything in Chesterwick . " Abigail's f s face flushed immediately after hearing those words , and she wished she could crawl into a crack in the floor . She could hardly sit now . Jackson soon exited the inner cabin . His gaze lingered on Abigail for a second , a little deeper than before . Yet he quickly put on a friendly smile and said , " You're free to move around here . I'll go take care of a few things . By the way , you can make a rough plan for your work during this trip . " Abigail opened her mouth to ask , trying to get instructions for her work , but Jackson had already walked off , giving her no opportunity to speak while , unsure what to do , until flight attendants started entering the lounge . Some brought pays of breakfast , while others carmed Abigail sat for a while , blankets . " Ms. Gibson , we have milk , juice , and red wine . Which would you like ? " one of them asked in a polite tone , her face adored with a pleasant smile Abigail felt awkward and answered , " Milk , please . For breakfast , I'd like to have steak and pasta . Just leave the blanket to the side , please help myself with it later She blurted it all out so quickly that the attendant blinked in surprise . Then she replied with a smile , " Certainly . " After they left , Abigail finally relaxed a little . After finishing her food , she leaned back on the couch , pulled the blanket over , and dozed off . in the middle of her nap , she felt the seat beside her sink , like someone sitting down there . The sensation lingered for quite a long while . Later , a voice called out , " Ms. Gibson . " The voice jolted Abigail awake . She opened her eyes , only to see Jackson's face looming a bit too close for comfort , and her heart skipped a beat . Before she could fully regain her senses , he added , " Get ready . We're about to get off " Ө
