Chapter 44
“He’s imprisoning me here!” Abigail said coldly. “I never wanted to stay! Grandpa, if you really care about me, please take me away.”
Derrick’s heart ached as he angrily shouted at Peter, “You scoundrel, get out of the way! How dare you stop me?”
Frantic, Peter stammered, “Mr. Gomez Senior, Mr. Gomez prve explicit orders! This is my duty! Given Mrs. Gomez’s current situation… Mr. Gomez Senior! Mr. Gomez Senior!”
Derrick ignored him and took Abigail’s hand, leading her past him,
Peter dared not stop them, only continuing to try and persuade him, but Derrick paid no attention.
Abigail felt anxious. She knew Peter must have notified Eric, and it would take time for him to return from the company. She had to leave as soon as possible
“Mr. Gomez Senior! Mr. Gomez Senior!!
Peter and a group of people chased after them. Derrick’s face was cold. He reached the door, but the bodyguards blocked their way
“Do you know who I am? How dare you stop me? Derrkli yelled
The bodyguards looked at Peter, then at Derrick, clearly conflicted.
Peter quickly stepped forward. “Mr. Gomez and Mrs. Gomez are married. He won’t harm her. You don’t have to worry, Mr. Gomez Senior. You know your grandson better than one.”
Derrick hesitated, but seeing Abigail beside him, he remained determined to take her away.
Peter and the bodyguards held firm for a moment, but with no other option, they allowed them to pass.
Abigail felt a hovy weight lift from her heart. Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a cold, familiar voice rang out.
“Grandpa, where are you taking my wife?” Eric stepped out of a car and strode over, frowning at Derrick. “Please don’t interfere in our matters.
Derrick snapped, “What do you mean by that? Look at what you’ve done to Abby! If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it! You’re not worthy of her. You two should divorce, and I’ll take her back to the Gomez residence
“No!” Eric’s come was firm. “Tassure you, I won’t mistreat her; you can’t take her away.”
Abigail’s heart sank.
“How dare you talk to me like that! Tim raking thigall with me no matter what” Derrick was furious.
Fric stood before him, blocking his way like a gatekeeper
“Move!” Derrick growled
Eric only calmly instructed, “Take Mrs. Gomez back I’ll handle Grandpa.”
He forcibly pried Derrick’s hand away and signaled to Peter and Mary to take Abigail back inside quickly.
Abigail struggled ‘Grandpa! Grandpal Let me go.
“Abby!” Derrick shouted angrily, turning to Eric. “What are you doing? Are you trying to drive her to an early death?‘‘
“Don’t worry. What could I do to her? She’s my wife. Eric sighed. “Her eyes have problems. She needs a comed transplant. I’ve already arranged for it. I let her go after the surgery and her vision is restored.”
“Really?” Derrick looked at him with suspicion.
you can come back and take Abigail away,” Eric said calmly.
Derrick grumbled, “At least you have some conscience. If you abandon her now, you’re a bastard. But Abby doesn’t want to stay here. Let her come to the Gomez residence with me”
“This is a matter between me and her, you don’t understand. Please don’t interfere,” Eric replied “Go back. If you’re still worried, you can send someone from the Gomez residence to care for her.”
