Chapter 117

Abel’s face was full of surprise. He asked, “How did your injury have anything to do with that?”

Violet sighed helplessly. “As you know, the Webb family has no relationship with Foreverie Jewelry other than me. However, if Veronica wants to marry Benedict, my father can only think of a way from me. He previously used the thing my mother left for me to threaten me to beg Patrick to let Veronica get into Foreverie Jewelry!”

Violet looked tired and added, “I have no choice. The Turner family hesitates about which family they want to be connected to by marriage. My father keeps urging me to ask Patrick for help. He’s too anxious. Besides, how can Patrick easily let a person with a bad character like Veronica enter the company with his personality? I don’t think I can beg him. I had no choice but to think of a bad plan and go to the Webb’s villa to steal the letter!”

Abel frowned and said, “So, did you injure when you returned to the Webb family to get the letter?”

Violet nodded. “My father came back when I got the thing. I brought Megan with me and didn’t want my father to see her and implicate her. We climbed down from the window on the second floor. I was already feeling uneasy when I climbed down. I was shocked by the sound of my father unlocking the door and fell and sprained my ankle!”

Abel looked at her with heartache and asked, “Did you get what you wanted?”

Speaking of which, Violet was a little disappointed. Then she sa got an empty envelope. My father took the letter inside away!”

Abel’s heart ached even more. He didn’t expect Violet to be injured she had worked for nothing.

He was about to comfort Violet when his phone rang.

When Abel saw it was Ab bie, a trace of gloominess flashed across his brows.

Chapter 117

Although he sympathized with Ab bie’s plight, he felt a little disgusted when he thought about how he was the one A bbie originally wanted to set

up.

His eyes darkened as he answered the phone. His clean face did not look. like a mortal.

“Abel. I’m going to marry Benedict,” Ab bie said with a crying voice. “I won’t bother you anymore. You can rest assured. I can’t plague you anymore!”

“What’s the matter?” asked Abel, frowning.

Ab bie was devastated and said, “I’m pregnant. I’m going to register my marriage with Benedict tomorrow! I want to see you. Where are you?”

“You’re pregnant?” asked Abel. His expression changed slightly.

Ab bie cried self-deprecatingly and said, “Yes, I’m pregnant. Now, the entire Summerwood City knows about me and Benedict. My parents would let me marry him if he were a bedbug!”

Abel pursed his l*ps and said, “That’s your business!”

“Abel Fuller, you are so cruel!” Ab bie sobbed sadly.

Abel remained silent.

Ab bie’s heart ached. She had liked Abel for so long but ended up like this.

She cried and said, “Abel, I’d like to see you for the last time. Is it okay?”

Abel’s eyes flashed, and he said, “I’m in the hospital!”

“Then I’ll come and find you now!” Abb ie said quickly.

Abel hung up.

He knew A bbie would come over for sure.

Abel turned around and looked at Violet. He said, “Violet, there is at turning point in the matter!”

Violet looked at him in surprise.

Abel explained, “Ab bie is pregnant. The Willis family wants Benedict to take responsibility. Abb ie and Benedict will register their marriage tomorrow. As long as Benedict and Veronica’s marriage is ruined, your father shouldn’t rush you like that. Although it won’t solve the fundamental problem, it can buy you some time at least!”

Violet did not expect such a turn of events. She pursed her l*ps and asked after a long time, “Ab bie is pregnant so soon?”

Abel couldn’t help but chuckle when he heard Violet’s words. “We can find out if a woman is pregnant after about a week!”

Violet was a little embarrassed. She said, “I want to thank you no matter what!”

Abel smiled and shook his head. “No need to thank me. You saved before. This is nothing!”

“But your injury was caused by Veronica! What’s more, Veronica took revenge on you because you helped me online! In the end, it was because. of me!” said Violet. She was embarrassed when she thought of these things.

“You’re different from her!” said Abel, looking at Violet with a smile.

Outside the door, Patrick’s eyes darkened. He looked at Abel through the door cra ck and curled his l*ps mockingly. Could that solve the fundamental problem?

His gaze fell on Violet’s swollen ankle with a hint of heartache that he couldn’t even notice.

Thinking of what Violet had just said, Patrick understood. No wonder he had asked Nelson to investigate for a day and couldn’t find out what had happened to Violet. It seemed that Henry had threatened her with something.

Patrick’s eyes darkened. He remembered that he had warned Henry not to tamper with Violet again. Otherwise, he would not be polite!”

Patrick did not expect Henry to turn a deaf ear to his words. Since that was

the case, he would not stand on ceremony!

His phone vibrated at this point. Nelson was calling him.

Patrick did not want Violet to know he was at the door, so he quickly took his phone and walked away.

Scowling, he answered the phone. “What’s up?”

Nelson’s voice was tense as he said, “Mr. Hersey, we’ve caught him!”
