Not One, But Two!

Chapter 262

In honesty, Abigail didn't want to leave. After all, she didn't know if she would be safe during this trip. However, she also knew that Philip had to answer to her parents as well as Emma for his actions.

In Emma's last moments, Abigail acknowledged her as her sister.

Abigail was a protective person, so since she had allowed Emma to be part of her family, she wouldn't allow anyone to bully Emma even though the latter was dead!

Abigail made a call to Valerie.

Valerie never thought that she would still receive a call from Abigail. To her, there was already a rift between her and Abigail, so even if they really became family in the future, they wouldn't get along as well as they used to. As such, Valerie was a little shocked to receive Abigail's call.

"Old Madam Buckley, are you in Harrion?"

Valerie frowned at Abigail's words.

How did Abigail know that I had just got off the plane?

Is she watching me?

Valerie frowned slightly.

"Yes, I just got off the plane."

"There's something I want to ask of you. Let's talk in person."

After saying an address, Abigail hung up.

She went back to the bedroom. As she watched Greg frowning even in deep sleep, she couldn't help but plant a kiss on his forehead, whispering, "If I'm still alive by the time all this is over, I'll definitely marry you."

She knew that Greg couldn't hear her, but who cared? She was the only one who needed to know.

This was the man she acknowledged, so even if death parted them, she would still love him as she did from the beginning.

After a change of clothes, Abigail left Allie's Garden.

When she arrived at the place she was supposed to meet Valerie, she realized that the latter had arrived earlier than her. Due to the matter with Victoria, Valerie looked more haggardly than she used to be.

Abigail called over a waiter and asked for two glasses of water. Then, she immediately said, "Old Madam Buckley, I have to go overseas for a while, so I hope you can take care of the children for me."

Valerie never thought that Abigail had called her over here for this. She remembered clearly that Abigail and her had gone their separate ways precisely because of the children. She thought she would never have the chance to meet her granddaughters again, so she was a little emotional.

"Do you mean it? You're not worried that I might do something to them anymore?"

"Would you?"

After some experiences, Abigail also understood that Valerie truly loved the two children. Even though Valerie once held the children as hostages, she still did it while being extra careful about the children's emotions and health.

Abigail still wanted to criticize Valerie for that, but there was no one more suited for the task right now.

Valerie was extremely regretful of what she had done. When she heard Abigail's question, she hastily said, "Of course not! Even if I die, I won't do anything to them ever again."

"I'm glad to hear that. To be honest, once I leave, I don't know if I can come back alive. If I never return, I hope you'll take good care of them, and please comfort Greg as well. He's a very emotional person. Even though he looks like an irresponsible ruffian, when he has set his heart on a person, it will be for life. I will take good care of myself for his sake, but things just don't go our way at times. I cannot promise a safe return, so…"

Abigail's words startled Valerie.
