Not One, But Two!

Chapter 112

"Dr. Kain, I heard that you took your own sister hostage to threaten your stepmother. Is it true?"

A reporter almost poked the microphone into Abigail's face.

Due to such a targeted question, Sasha was obviously the one who had arranged for these reporters to deliberately expose Abigail.

Abigail had indeed underestimated Sasha, for the woman probably dared to act so recklessly because she knew that Abigail would not harm her daughter.

At this moment, Emma suddenly cried pitifully and said, "Abigail, it hurts when you hold me so tight like this. Can't you let me go? I know you like Jonathan, but Jonathan and I really love each other. I can give you everything else except for him. Abigail, even if you kill me, my answer remains the same."

Abigail's brows furrowed together tightly.

It turned out that Emma was silent all the way because she was waiting to attack Abigail here.

Sure enough, Emma was Sasha's daughter. They were flexible and knew how to act according to the changing situation—Abigail had truly underestimated them.

When the other reporters saw Emma acting like this and even mentioning Jonathan of the Fraser Family, they hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Dr. Kain, it is rumored that you help the wounded and dying, so don't you think it's too much for you to treat your relatives like this?"

"Dr. Kain, Emma is your sister after all. Is it appropriate for you to blatantly snatch the man she's in love with?"

"Dr. Kain, what is your opinion about being someone's mistress?"

One by one, they all came toward Abigail excitedly, and they even shoved their equipment directly upon Abigail's body, causing her to almost fall. If it weren't for the fact that she was holding hard onto Emma, the latter would have taken the opportunity to escape.

Abigail raised her head slightly and saw Sasha standing there on the second-floor window, staring at her coldly with a sarcastic smile on the corner of her lips.

"Step aside!" Abigail's eyes were slightly cold.

She would've shown them respect if they were regular reporters, but these people had obviously been bribed by Sasha.

When she saw how fierce Abigail was, Emma shivered in fright. She subconsciously covered her head with her other hand and cried, "Don't hit me, Abigail! I won't dare to do it anymore."

It looked like she was used to being beaten all the time, and the surrounding reporters became fervent again.

"Dr. Kain, you are going too far!"

"I didn't expect you to be so crazy!"

Everyone started to attack Abigail with words, and it was making her furious.

She didn't want to bother about Emma and the others, but it did not mean that she was afraid of them!

Abigail's hand suddenly tightened around the woman's wrist.

"Ah!" This time, Emma wasn't pretending. Her face turned pale in pain, and she was dripping with cold sweat.

"Does it hurt? How does it feel compared to just now? Since you said that I am so hard-hearted, it's only right that I do this to you, eh? Or do you still think I am the same person I was five years ago who wouldn't dare to say anything while being bullied by you guys? Do you think I'm still that Abigail who left Harrion in a hurry?"

Abigail smiled brightly, but the chill in her eyes made Emma feel terrified.

This woman is so scary!

When the reporters saw how Abigail treated Emma in front of them, they couldn't help but get even more heated.

"I don't know which media company you guys are from, but do you really know what the truth is? If you don't know anything, how dare you come and attack me personally? I'll remember you guys, and I will have my lawyer contact you."

As soon as Abigail's voice fell, everyone heard the sound of car tires screeching against the ground behind them. It was followed by Greg getting out of the car.

"Get out of the way!" Greg roared like thunder, causing all the reporters to make way.

One could offend anyone in the city, but never the Fourth Young Master of Harrion, Greg Buckley. Apparently, he was involved in both legal and illegal businesses, and his prowess was terrifying.

When Abigail watched Greg come to her like Prince Charming, she couldn't help but feel a little different in her heart. Since young, no matter what she encountered, she had always solved it alone; what she couldn't solve could only be carried on her own back. She had long been accustomed to taking on everything by herself, but Greg was now here.

Greg walked to Abigail's side before taking her into his strong arms. He said very domineeringly, "My woman doesn't need to snatch Jonathan Fraser from anyone. How is he even qualified? You guys might not know this, but Jonathan was the one whom my Abbie gave up five years ago. Now that my Abbie is so successful, she won't go back to him. Who did you take the bribe from to smear my woman's name? Do you guys still want your jobs? I'll give you a chance to go to the police station to record your own statements. Tell the police everything, including the person who bribed you. If you do a good job, I can still let you go. If you don't, I'll find ways to ensure that you will lose your jobs badly. If you don't believe it, you can try it."

After speaking, Greg picked up his phone and snapped a few pictures before sending them to Tony.

"Find out which media company these reporters in the photo belong to, and go meet their boss. Tell him that I, Greg Buckley, want to buy their media company. In addition, have someone follow these people to the police station and make a note of those who record their statement there."

Greg did not force anyone at all, but instead, he sent a voice message to Troy in front of the reporters.

Emma's face suddenly turned pale. She never thought that Greg would stand up for Abigail. Although she had previously thought about the relationship between Greg and Abigail, the woman had dealt with whatever Emma and her mother threw her way alone, making her think that the relationship between the two was nothing but a sham. Hence, that was why Emma and Sasha had dared to do this.

It was a surprise that Greg protected Abigail so much, and he even asked those reporters to confess to their bribes. Wouldn't this bring harm to Sasha?

Emma was completely dumbfounded. She had thought about becoming Greg's woman five years ago, but ever since meeting him, she no longer dared to think that way. Now, this devilish man was actually interested in Abigail!

No! Absolutely not!

With him around, Abigail would have a strong backer. By then, would Philip even need Emma and her mother?

Emma was deep in thought, whereas Sasha felt uneasy as well since she had never expected Greg to appear. Now that a good opportunity had been disrupted by him, what was she supposed to do?

Sasha subconsciously wanted to escape.

Although Abigail was moved by Greg's protection, she kept her eyes trained on Sasha's position on the second floor. When she saw that Sasha was moving, she said in a low voice, "Sasha is going to run away." Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

"You go first, and I'll take care of the aftermath here." Greg glanced at Emma coldly.

"If you don't want to lose your arms and legs, you'd better stand here and don't move."

Greg would never touch Emma, and he was the only one who dared to threaten her in front of so many reporters.

Although Emma was very unwilling, she did not dare to move as she was very afraid.

When Abigail saw that Emma was being intimidated by Greg and the reporters around them didn't target her anymore, she went directly to the back door without saying a word.

With so many people here, Sasha would definitely not leave through the front.

Meanwhile, Sasha hurriedly opened the back door to find Abigail waiting for her there.

"Where are you going, Mrs. Kain? Didn't you make an appointment with me? What's the matter? The reporters couldn't stop me, so are you planning to escape?"

Abigail stood there with her arms around her chest as she looked at Sasha with a mocking expression on her face. On the other hand, Sasha found this very annoying. This Abigail is simply too arrogant! However, she just couldn't do anything about her.

"You see, Abigail—I suddenly remember that I have something to do at home, so why don't we make another appointment some other time?"

"Is something wrong at home?" Abigail smiled faintly as she twirled the scalpel in her hand, and the cold light that reflected off of it made Sasha take a step back and swallow hard.

"Our country is ruled by law, you know."

"Oh, so you do know that our country is ruled by law? However, I see that you are doing everything you can to deal with me. In fact, I thought you didn't know what the word meant. It seems like I've misunderstood you, though—you know everything, yet you're breaking the law on purpose, am I right?"

Abigail still smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

At this moment, Sasha was breaking out in a cold sweat.

They hadn't seen each other for five years; not only was Abigail very skilled right now, but her aura was so terrifying that it made Sasha very uncomfortable.

How can she be the way she is now? What did she experience abroad in the past five years? Sasha thought in her heart, but she was thinking of a way to escape as well.

"Abigail, we're still family at the end of the day. It's not good for everyone if we argue, right? You know your dad's temper, and it's so hard for me to get anything from him. Aren't you just making things difficult for me?"

"You also made things difficult for me while I was growing up under you. It's useless to use the pity card on me, Sasha. Do you think I will sympathize with you?"

Abigail's smile was completely gone by now, and her face was dark. In fact, she looked terrifying.

She didn't like mentioning those things that were in the past, but it didn't mean that she had forgotten them.

Upon seeing her change of expression, Sasha quickly said, "Give me another day, and I promise to give it to you."

"I think it's better to give up. If you're given another day, you will just cook up something to harm my woman and upset her again. Since you don't want to help, we can go and ask Philip ourselves."

Greg had somehow come over at this point, and he was followed by a trembling Emma.

Needless to say, Emma was really frustrated about her situation.

Abigail turned her head slightly, only to see Greg coming in with his hands in his trouser pockets as he walked casually toward her. Seeing that, Abigail felt her heart beating faster.

The man had such charm that he could make others obsess over him.

"What? Are you astounded by your man's handsome looks?"

Greg fondly stroked Abigail's head.

At that moment, the faint smell of tobacco made Abigail return to her senses.

Hey! He's touching my hair again!

Abigail frowned slightly, but she did not resist it.

"Mom…"

When Emma saw Sasha, tears suddenly fell from her eyes.

"Mom, I'm afraid."

"Shut up! You're too noisy!" Greg growled, causing Emma to cover her mouth with her hands in fright. As for Sasha, she didn't know what to do.
