Not One, But Two!

Chapter 65
Philip squinted quietly. A long while later, he said, "Just stay away from that ruby necklace. It'll kill you. Don't say I didn't warn ya."
He then went to his company happily. Eight million wasn't much, but it was better than nothing, and Philip could see another way to enrich himself.
He didn't know how much Abigail charged for every surgery she performed, but he did know her clients were rich. After all, she did pay eight million in the blink of an eye. Now, he had to come up with a plan to control Abigail.
Abigail called Greg the moment she left. "I need your help."
"Where are you? I'll be back in Allie's Garden."
Abigail wouldn't simply hire anyone to appraise the necklace of course.
She didn't believe that Philip actually left something so valuable to her out of kindness. She knew him too well. It was unlike him not to sell it.
When Abigail came back to Allie's Garden, Greg was already waiting for her.
"Did they trouble you?" Greg thought Abigail was bullied, and he wanted to teach the Kains a lesson.
She shook her head. Abigail held his hand and dragged him into the house. "I need someone to appraise this necklace. See if it's authentic. Can you call Stanley? I need him to see if this belonged to my mother."
She took the ruby necklace out.
Greg squinted. "No need for an appraiser. That's the real article," he said softly.
Abigail heaved a sigh of relief. Greg was a smart and powerful man, and he could verify whether something was authentic or not with ease. In that case, this makes the necklace even more curious. "Tell Stanley to come over." It had been too long, and Stanley still hadn't given Abigail her mother's details. She knew something must be up, so she wanted to see Stanley again.
Greg knew Abigail's mother was important to her, but he was too busy lately, so he didn't have time to deal with Stanley. The scar on his back had formed a scab, and it was itchy. So I endured that whip for nothing? He snorted and called Stanley.
Stanley didn't take it at first, but he couldn't keep it up forever. Finally, when the phone rang for the tenth time, he picked it up. "Mr. Buckley—"
