Chapter 81
“How are you so slow? Eric is going to win that bitch over soon, and she’s going to doom my son again! Just the thought at it is going to kill me Lach said through gritted teeth.
Chanse’s face fell as he tugged his tie. “What can I do about it when your son really likes her?”
“He’s really bewitched!” She became even more furious. “If I had known this would happen, I would’ve dealt with her inmeret instead of sending her abroad!”
“Shut it!” Chanse frowned. “How can you even say that so casually?”
Lucy harrumphed coldly. She was only saying it out of anger earlier. But when she thought about it again, she figured it wasn’t a bad ide at al, xiter all. if she could find a way to make Abigail disappear without a trace, then Abigail would leave Eric forever.
Chanse was frustrated, and he turned around to head upstairs. “I’m heading back to my study room to deal with some work. Stop disturbing me furn reason!”
Lucy sat on the couch with a pout, and her phone suddenly rang. When she saw that it was Nicole calling, Lucy answered it.
“Madam Gomez, it’s the weekend. If you have nothing to do, would you like to go shopping with me? Since you’ve just returned in the country. I can bring you to some new restaurants and salons if you like.”
Lucy had a great impression of Nicole. Since Nicole was also Eric’s secretary, Lucy could learn more about her son from Nicole as well. With that thought in mind, Lucy accepted the invitation. “Sure. Send me the location, and I’ll meet you in a short while.”
When Nicole and Lucy met at a restaurant, it was already noon and time for lunch.
Upon seeing Lucy, Nicole hurriedly waved with a smile. “Over here, MAdam Gomez!”
Lucy approached her and took a seat. “Sorry to keep you waiting, Coles.”
“It’s fine. I just got here myself,” Nicole said with a smile and thoughtfully handed Lucy the menu. “Here, Madam Gomez. Take a look and see if there’s anything you would like to eat.”
Lucy went through the menu and just ordered a steak and some desserts because she wasn’t really in the mood to eat. The only reason she came out was to get some information from Nicole.
So, after she was done ordering, she took a sip of her lemonade before going straight to the point. “How long have you been working fre
Nicole said with a smile, “I’ve been working alongside Mr. Gomez for around half a year now.”
“Since you’re his secretary, you should know a lot about everything around him, right?” Lucy asked again.
Nicole had an idea where this was going, so she answered with a smile. “Yeah, I should know most of them.”
“In that case, how is his relationship with Abigail?”
Lucy had a feeling that Eric cared more about Abigail than he did in the past. So, she wondered if Eric and Abigail really had fallen for each other in her absence.
When Nicole heard the question, she was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it for a moment, she answered. “Well… Mr. Gomez and Ms. Rest respect each other a lot…”
Lucy said coldly, “I want you to tell me the truth.”
“Mr. Gomez and Ms. Reed weren’t getting along at all,” said Nicole.
“However, that was just when they first met. They seemed to have slowly gotten used to each other now. Also, Mr. Gomer listens to Ms. 3eed a or sometimes. He even fought with his best friend for her. I think his best friend’s sister died because she took a pill that Ms. Rest’s father created
“It was Gavin, wasn’t it?” Lucy said coldly, “That kid basically grew up with Eric, and I can’t believe Eric would actually tight Gain for Abigul. That woman really is doorning him!”
Nicole lowered her gaze and suggested, “There must be a misunderstanding, right?”
“A misunderstanding?” Lucy scoffed. “Not necessarily!”
Nicole smirked slightly. “Please don’t be mad, Madam Gomez. We’re here to do some shopping today, so let’s not get upset now.”
Abigail’s operation was scheduled to be at 9:00 am.
On the day of the operation, Eric woke up early in the morning. Worried that something might go wrong, be arranged for a couple of bodignants in watch over her.
