Chapter 98
eah, I ca ee now,” said Abigail. “My eyes have recovered well, and I’ve left the hospital. Also, I’ll start working at Gomez Group tomorrow.”
Jacinta heard that, she was stunned. “You’re going to work at Gomez Group? Why? Is this about investigating your father’s case?”
“Yes. Since I need to investigate, entering Gomez Group might be the best way to do so. That way, I can get my hands on the company’s classified information.”
“So… Are you not getting a divorce anymore?”
“Not yet. After all, if I get a divorce now, how else will I be able to enter the company?”
“That’s true.” Jacinta sighed. “But you’ll have to suffer now. After all, you finally could get away from that bastard. However, you have to continue compromising with him for this.”
Abigail didn’t think it was a big deal at all. “It’s alright. Now, I feel extremely calm, and there’s nothing Eric can do to hurt me. All I want now is to look into what got my dad in trouble back then.”
“Well, good luck! Let’s have a meal tomorrow to celebrate your vision being cured! It’ll be my treat!” said Jacinta.
“Sure.” Abigail agreed.
The next day, Abigail woke up early in the morning and changed into professional attire. When she left the room, she coincidentally ran into Eric, who had just come out of his room as well. Recently, he had been sleeping in the study room the whole time, and last night was no different.
He glanced at Abigail and noticed how skinny she had gotten in her professional attire. However, her chest was still as voluptuous as before. Her waist was so thin that it felt like it could snap easily, and it attracted his attention a lot.
“Good morning,” Abigail greeted so calmly that it felt like she was talking to a colleague she didn’t know.
Eric frowned subtly and nodded without a word.
After they were done with breakfast, they left the house in the same car. While they were on their way to the company, Abigail said nothing at all and just stared out the window.
Then, Eric said, “Once we’re at the company, you should report to the HR department first. The people there will tell you what to do next.” “Sure,” she answered.
“Nicole is my secretary, and we’re only interacting like how normal colleagues would. So, don’t misunderstand us,” he added.
However, she still answered simply, “Got it.”
When their car arrived at the junction in front of the company, Abigail suddenly said, “Please stop here.”
The driver said, “Mrs. Gomez, we’ve yet to arrive at the company.”
“I know. Please just stop here. I can just get off here,” Abigail said as she opened the door. Then, she thought of something and explained, “I think we shouldn’t let the people at the company know about our relationship first. Otherwise, it’ll just cause unnecessary trouble.”
Before Eric could say anything, she had already gotten out of the vehicle. So, he just said with a long face, “Start driving.”
When Abigail entered Gomez Group, she walked to the front desk and stated why she was there. Then, she was led further into the building. Upon entering the HR department and telling the people there who she was, the head of the department, Alex Wurt, personally came to welcome her. Alex was so passionate while talking to Abigail that the people in the department started whispering.
“What’s going on?”
“Who is she? Why is Mr. Wurt being so enthusiastic?”
“She came out of nowhere and was suddenly assigned to be the president’s secretary. I wonder what family she’s from.”
“She’s the president’s secretary? Seriously? Could she be a business partner’s daughter?”
“I don’t think so. After all, the clothes she’s wearing don’t seem to be expensive at all. How could there be a great family that’s that poor?” “Those who take shortcuts sure are something else…”
Abigail heard what those people were saying about her, but she didn’t care at all. After she was done filling out the application, she handed it up right
away.
