Not One, But Two!

Chapter 263

When Addison heard all this, he felt as if he were dreaming, but his admiration for Abigail only increased.

Miss Abigail really is my idol!

This matter is so difficult to investigate, but when Miss Abigail takes charge, it's easily resolved just like that.

Addison hastily said, "Miss Abigail, since you're Old Mr. Castel's daughter, why didn't you let Mr. Buckley know about it?"

"My dad is the strongest force of darkness in Daskar, whereas Greg is the emperor of the Dark Empire. I looked it up before; those two have grudges between them, and it didn't seem like a small matter. If they suddenly meet each other, I'm afraid that the meeting would turn into something catastrophic. It would spell disaster if they attract attention from above. I'll wait until this matter with Uncle Philip is resolved, then I'll talk it over with my dad. I hope he'll accept Greg as his son-in-law."

At the mention of Greg, Abigail smiled slightly. Her happy and fulfilled look roused a bout of sorrow in Addison.

He hastily lowered his head.

Without waiting for a prompt from Addison, Abigail continued, "This time, Uncle Philip has laid out a trap for me. Until now, I still have no idea why he did it, and I can only know the answer when I go there myself. Also, I want to take care of some personal grudges on the side, so I can't let Greg join us. It's not necessary anyway. If I can't even solve the problem in my own father's territory, an outsider like Greg can't possibly do anything."

No matter how strong one was, one could barely win against an enemy on their home turf. Abigail didn't want Greg to come here uninformed.

She was planning to tell Greg about her father, but at that time, everyone was focused on training for the competition, so Abigail withheld the information in case their emotions were affected. After that, the incident with Emma happened, and now Philip had left. With everything happening one after the other, Abigail really didn't have time to talk about this.

She wondered how the man felt right now.

When he woke up to her absence, he would probably be so pissed that he'd kick a chair or something.

At the thought of Greg waking up mad, Abigail suddenly chuckled.

This man never had a good temper to begin with, but he did put in a lot of effort and sincerity with her.

The plane soon landed in Daskar.

After getting off the plane, Abigail didn't manage to do anything before a group of men in black surrounded them.

Addison wanted to protect Abigail, but he was stopped from doing so.

"No matter how skilled you are, you cannot deal with so many people at the same time. Our men are behind us, so aim for a chance to leave and inform them to rescue me. I'll leave signs along the way."

Abigail grabbed Addison and spoke to him in a voice so small that it only reached their ears.

Addison nodded furiously, but he saw the cold look in Abigail's eyes.

He knew that he couldn't say no to this command. Abigail had put her life in his hands.

As he gritted his teeth, Addison took a step backward.

When Abigail saw his actions, she finally looked up at the men.

"Who are you? What do you intend to do?"

She didn't act like she was about to be abducted. On the contrary, she had such a cold and powerful aura that people couldn't help but regard her in respect.

The leader at the front walked forward and said to Abigail, "Dr. Kain, we don't want to cause any trouble for you, so please don't give us trouble either. We're given orders to take you to a place, and if you cooperate, it will be in everyone's best interests."

"On whose orders?"

Abigail didn't move.
