21:35 Wed , 18 Jun Chapter 50 Chapter 50 Abigail's voice remained calm , but her eyes brimmed with scornful mockery . She stared directly at Stephen , the kind of gaze that made him feel exposed and ashamed . Her eyes were crystal clear , as though they could see right through him , and the calmness in them gradually gave way to biting ridicule . She was genuinely thankful she wasn't like the rest of the Gibson family who were so adept at twisting logic and speaking nonsense as if it were righteousness , just like what Stephen did right now . +38 Abigail retorted , " I already broke off the engagement with Ralph as you all requested . Now the decision lies with the Fletcher family . Since Ralph refuses to get engaged to Daniella , isn't that Daniella's problem ? " Just one question was enough to make Stephen seethe with humiliation and rage . " Can you swear this has nothing to do with you ? " Abigail's tone turned ice - cold . " Yup , do you think I have the same guilty conscience as all of you ? I've done what I was supposed to do . If Daniella couldn't seize the opportunity , that's on her . She deserved it . " Abigail thought bitterly , ' It's ridiculous . Ralph was the one to refuse the engagement , and yet instead of blaming him or Daniella , they pinned it all on me . ' Stephen couldn't withstand the look in Abigail's eyes anymore . He was just about to explode when his phone rang . He glanced at the caller ID and answered in a hurry . Whatever he heard on the other end made the color drain from his face . " W - What ? Dani … had a car accident ? " Abigail's heart stirred slightly . She didn't expect Daniella would have an accident . Stephen said , " I'm coming right away . " entan As he hung up , Abigail reached for the car door and opened it . Stephen noticed her movement and immediately barked , " What are you doing ? " She replied calmly , " I'm going home . " Stephen's expression shifted . He clearly understood the implication behind her words . He shot her a furious glare and drove off without another word . Of course Abigail understood why he glared at her . In his eyes , she should've gone with him to the hospital as soon as she heard the news . But to Abigail , Daniella's accident had nothing to do with her . A flash of derision passed through her eyes , and she called for a cab and went back home . That afternoon , Abigail was awakened by her phone ringing . Groggily picking it up , she saw several missed calls from unfamiliar numbers - at least three . Even though they weren't saved in her contacts , she had a feeling she knew exactly who they were from . Abigail thought , ' It must be Stephen and them . ' She wasn't in the best mood , having had her nap interrupted . She answered with a frosty tone , " What is it ? " Sure enough , Stephen's voice rang from the other end . " Abigail , why the hell are you only answering now ? Do you know how many times we tried to call you ? " Abigail frowned , cutting him off in irritation . " So ? Why were you calling me ? " Her tone cut deep , and Stephen's anger instantly flared . " Abigail , you- " " Abby , it's me . " Another voice came through , as if the phone had been taken from Stephen . 1/2 21:30 weu , To Juli Chapter 50 Bianca's voice , full of urgency , moved closer . " Dani had a car accident . She needs an emergency blood transfusion . The hospital doesn't have any blood in stock . They're trying to transfer it in from elsewhere . " Dani's in critical condition . " Abigail scoffed inwardly , ' Wow , moral blackmail , huh ? Too bad , three years ago , when you threw me behind bars , every ounce of empathy I once held for you died .' She replied , " I'm not going . Whether she lives or dies depends on how lucky she is . " Just like her . If she hadn't been lucky , she would've died in prison long ago . Before Bianca could respond , Abigail hung up . In the hospital , upon learning that Abigail refused to come , Gabriel put on a long face . He barked an order at Stephen , " Go back and bring her here , even if you have to tie her up . " Stephen nodded immediately . When he arrived back at the villa , Abigail was halfway up the stairs with a tray of fruit in her hands . Hearing the commotion , she turned and met Stephen's furious glare . Stephen snapped , " Abigail , come with me to the hospital . " She couldn't be bothered to waste time on someone who clearly couldn't understand basic reasoning . She turned back and continued upstairs . Footsteps thundered behind her . The next second , a hand clamped around her wrist . The grip was so strong that Abigail lost hold of the tray . It crashed to the floor , fruit and ceramic scattering with a loud shatter . Stephen didn't care about the mess . He yanked her down the stairs without the slightest regard . Abigail stumbled , dragged helplessly behind him . It was the second time she'd been manhandled like this , and she despised it . It reminded her of the days she was beaten in prison . Her eyes , usually serene , flared with violence . Suddenly , Abigail bit into Stephen's arm , causing him to snarl and shove her away . Looking down at the teeth marks , he growled through clenched teeth , " Abigail , are you fucking crazy ? " Abigail spat on the floor in disgust , her face blank as she watched him . Stephen , frantic about Daniella and now getting bitten , was pushed to the edge . His voice went cold and low . " Go to the hospital , whether you want to or not . You've got two options - get in the car yourself , or I drag you in . You know I will . " Abig 2/2
