Her Wicked Ceo (Abigail and Liam) novel Chapter 67

Liam smiled at Abigail, "It seems that you are very confident."

"If the competition is spoiled by a lot of underhand tricks, I don't have to pay too much attention to it," Abigail said with absolute certainty.

Hearing this, Liam nodded. "OK, I'll wait and see what you can do."

"Thank you, Mr. Jones," Abigail said.

"How about going to dinner together?" Liam changed the subject.

"No, thank you." She didn't want to have dinner with Liam and provoke Olive again.

She remembered what she'd suffered yesterday.

"But you haven't eaten anything yet."

"I ate some of the food that Henry served, so I'm not hungry. I have some inspiration now, so I have to go back to draw the design." Abigail said.

Liam looked into her eyes as if he tried to see if she was telling the truth.

Finally, Liam nodded, drove the car, and sent her back.

On the way down to the neighborhood, Abigail didn't give Liam any chances to get close to her. After reaching the destination, she pushed open the door and went off the car.

"Mr. Jones, be careful on the way," Abigail said with a smile.

Liam looked at the woman. The more she hid, the more he wanted to get close to her. The more she wanted to get away, the more interested he was.

However, he was not in a hurry to get her right now.

"Okay." Liam curled his lips and drove away.

Seeing him leave so quickly, Abigail heaved a sigh of relief and went straight upstairs.

After returning home, she put on a comfortable nightgown, washed up briefly, and began to draw designs...

The computer was on, and for some reason, Abigail kept thinking about what Liam said to her today, and about Henry...

Suddenly, a name popped up in her mind...

Alexia.

Abigail put her hand on the computer and opened Google Browser. She couldn't help but type this name...

A lot of news about Alexia was displayed in front of her eyes.

There was also a picture of Alexia. She was a foreign woman. She was slim, beautiful, and capable. Abigail looked through her profile and accidentally found a piece of news.

Her eyes were fixed on the screen of the computer and she flipped through the photos. However, Abigail also found a detail.

At that moment, an idea came to her mind...

To make sure it was true, she searched for a long time. Then she picked up her phone and called Liam.

Liam had just entered his house and saw that it was Abigail's call. He immediately answered it, "Hello."

"Mr. Jones."

"You miss me so soon?"

Abigail ignored his question and said directly, "Did Alexia ever have a son who died in an accident?"

Hearing this, Liam paused for a moment and said, "There seems to be such a thing..."

"Okay! Got it." Before Liam could speak, Abigail hung up.

Liam looked at the phone and frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.

So, in just one night, Abigail drew the rough outline of the design.

Looking at the drawing, Abigail smiled. Although she didn't know if the design would win, it was definitely a meaningful work of art.

She carefully sandwiched the explanation card of this design into the paper. She then took a shower and went to the company.

By coincidence, she met Liam in the elevator.

Seeing Abigail's red eyes, Liam frowned. "What's wrong with you? Didn't you sleep last night?"

"Yes." Abigail nodded. "Is that obvious?"

"Yes, I can tell it from your red eyes," Liam said.

Abigail became silent.

"How's the design going?" Just as Liam asked, the elevator door opened.

Abigail walked out first and said, "Mr. Jones, don't worry. I'll hand in the design as planned."

With that, Abigail smiled and turned to walk towards the Design Department.

Liam looked at her back in the elevator, and a smile subconsciously tugged at his lips.

Abigail rarely stayed up late. So her head kept spinning now. It was terrible.

She went down and planned to buy something.

However, at this moment, a figure came in. It was Grace, the maid that served Abigail before. When she saw Abigail, she frowned. She wanted to go up and see her clearly, but Liam was in a hurry to use the documents, so she had to give up.

In the office.

Grace bowed to Liam and said, "Mr. Jones, here you are."

Liam smiled, "I told the driver to get it. You don't have to come here."

"I was afraid he would be careless," Grace said. She was very considerate of Liam.

"I'll have the driver take you back."

Grace nodded. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, Mr. Jones, do you still have contact with Mrs. Jones?" Grace suddenly asked.

Of course, Liam knew who she was referring to.

"No, what's wrong?" Liam said.

Judging from his expression, she guessed he really didn't know it.

'Was I mistaken?'

Grace shook her head with a smile. "Nothing, I'm leaving now."

"OK." Liam didn't think much.

Liam wanted to see her off, but the phone on the desk rang.

Grace then went down the elevator alone.

As soon as she reached the hall, Abigail had just come back from outside. When Grace saw her, she wanted to hurry up to see if she was that woman or not.

Finally, unable to repress her curiosity, she walked up.

"Mrs. Jones?" At this moment, a gentle and probing voice sounded behind her.

Abigail turned around, but when she saw the person in front of her, she was stunned.

"Grace?" To be honest, she was surprised to see Grace here.

"It's really you," Grace said with a sincere smile.

It had been two years since they saw each other last time. Abigail became more elegant so that Grace didn't dare to believe the person in front of her was Abigail.

During the years at the Jones Family, Abigail had never forgotten how Grace took care of herself, but at this moment, she smiled, "Grace, Liam and I have been divorced for a long time. You can just call me Abigail." Abigail said with a smile.

Grace nodded. "Okay, but, didn't you leave? Why are you here?"

"I..." Abigail thought of something and looked at Grace. "Grace, it's a long story. I'll explain it to you later, but can I ask you to do me a favor now?"

Grace blinked and smiled, "What is it?"

"Liam didn't recognize me. Can you not tell him?"

Hearing this, Grace was a little surprised, but her change was indeed dramatic, so it was reasonable for Liam to fail to recognize her.

"But..."

"Grace, please... If he knows it, I'll get into trouble," Abigail said coquettishly.

Of course, Grace knew what had happened between them before. After thinking about it for a while, she nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you, but you know, one day he will find out the truth." Grace kindly reminded her.

"I see. I'll think about it. Thank you, Grace." Abigail said with a quick smile.

"What are you talking about?" Just then, a cold voice came from behind.
