Chapter 241

"You're in no position to negotiate." Abigail shot Emma a look to silence her. Dammit. She's right. She can kill me and Dad anytime she wants to. I hate this! I hate this feeling.

Abigail stopped arguing with the woman and gave her some cooking tips.

Emma said nothing, but she was disgruntled about it, though Abigail couldn't care less.

Teal stayed back at the company during lunch time for work. Abigail told her about what she was doing with Emma, but Teal did not really care.

Abigail asked, "Hey, did you lock Sasha up or something?"

Teal was surprised she asked her that. "No. I've been working on my project for the last month. I haven't had time to check on her. It's not like she can escape anyway. Did something happen?"

Abigail trusted that Teal was telling the truth. She did not have to wait if she wanted to get back at Sasha. But if it's not her, then who did it? "Yes." She told Teal what happened, after which Teal was surprised.

"It's not me, I swear."

"Yeah, I know." Abigail was amused. "But there's no way she won't do anything now that the Kains are in trouble. She thinks she owns the place, and she'd never let anyone torture her little baby girl, especially not me."

"Who did this then?" Teal was worried as well. She still had yet to get back at Sasha, so she hoped that the woman hadn't met her fate. There's something fishy about this.

"No idea. My legs are all better now and you're almost cured of your poison. I'll be going back to the residence in a few days." That was Abigail's goal. Nobody would hurt her since she was the best surgeon in the world, but they might harm Teal now that the Kains were in trouble. They had become friends over the last month and she would like to keep Teal out of trouble if she could help it.

Teal did not really mind and teased, "Well, someone's missing her husband."

"What? You got a problem with that? I have someone to smooch now."

Abigail took the tease in stride, but Teal felt a little miffed. I did not need to hear that. "Yeah, smooch your husband and please spare me the details."
