The winter was getting colder. When Minerva came out of the hospital after a checkup, she shivered in the cold wind.
Abigail took off the scarf from her neck and wrapped it around her.
Minerva quickly refused. "There's no need, Auntie. It's so cold. If you give me the scarf, you'll feel cold."
Abigail looked at her helplessly and couldn't help but blame her. "Since you knew that you would feel cold under this weather, why didn't you wear more clothes? You know that you are pregnant, but you still don't pay more attention."
After being reprimanded by her, Minerva didn't dare say a word of defiance and silently accepted it.
Abigail helped her to keep the scarf on her. As she spoke, waves of hot air came out of her mouth. She looked at the buildings around her and said, "It's almost the New Year. I guess that I will accompany you abroad for this New Year."
Upon hearing this, Minerva was stunned. She followed her gaze and looked over subconsciously.
"Has time passed so fast? Was it going to be the New Year soon?"
She gently stroked her stomach. By New Year, the baby in her stomach would be exactly three months old.
Minerva thought of her distant son, Beanie.
She hadn't seen him for a long time.
Furthermore, since she had moved in to stay with Maddox, she rarely had video calls with him. She wondered how he was doing. Did he miss her very much?
Abigail said, "Well, don't just stand here like a fool. Get ready to go back."
"Okay."
The two of them held each other's hands and walked forward. As soon as they walked to the side of the road, a car stopped in front of them. It didn't look like a taxi or a private car.
Soon, the door opened, and several men gathered around.
About five men were in black and sunglasses. They looked like gangsters. Minerva frowned and looked at them calmly.
Abigail sneered at them and asked, "What's up?"
Several men were expressionless, and one of them, who seemed to be the leader, said, "Our
master wants to see you."
Abigail said, "Really? Who is your master? Why do we have to meet him if he wants to meet us?"
"Miss Abigail, please don't make things difficult for us. Master just wants to treat the two of you to a meal," the man said.
Abigail replied, "Then go back and tell your master, who doesn't dare to show his face to others, that we don't want to go."
After that, she took Minerva's hand and was ready to leave.
When the men saw this, they frowned and instantly surrounded the two of them again. They blocked their way. "Miss Abigail..."
Abigail frowned and shouted, "Get out of my way!"
When the men saw her like this, they had no choice but to step aside helplessly.
Only then did Abigail and Minerva leave. A few men looked at the back of the two people leaving, and they stayed together to discuss something.
After walking for a while, Abigail slowed down. "He's really like an annoying fly appearing everywhere."
They linked arms, and the entire journey was quiet.
Just now, the master whom the group of people were talking about was obvious. They wanted Abigail to go back, but dared not to use violence with her. They retreated directly with her roar.
