Abigail put away her phone and gazed out the window for a long time. She whispered, "I took a life."

Josh slammed on the brakes, bringing the car to a sudden stop, then quickly hit the gas pedal again. "Killed... someone?"

They could never imagine such a thing happening in their lifetime.

Abigail nodded. "I had no other choice. If I didn't act, I couldn't leave and couldn't come back."

The situation was different abroad than in Eswadia, and she found herself in a place with armed forces. It was a matter of kill or be killed.

Josh's expression softened with sympathy. "Did you feel... scared?"

"At first, I felt guilty and scared, but... gradually, I came to terms with it." Abigail furrowed her brow and explained that living abroad had taught her to accept things slowly.

"Anyway, nothing will happen. The people you got rid of must have been bad." Josh comforted her.

"They were bad people and had harmed many innocent individuals, including chefs and cleaners in our community," Abigail said softly as she recalled the bodies left unattended and scattered everywhere when they departed.

"What about Simond? Did that b*stard die?" Josh's anger flared at the mention of him. Without Simond, Sean and Abigail would not have reached the point of breaking up.

"I don't know. Let's not dwell on him." Abigail felt a surge of irritation whenever Simond's name was brought up.

She loathed Simond, yet she couldn't help but blame herself for falling for his deception.

Still, she couldn't deny that without his help, she would never have found Martin. Her feelings toward him were tangled, so much so that just mentioning him annoyed her. Josh decided not to press further and remained silent.
