Chapter 897

Anson said in a deep voice, "I'm fine. Take care of the rest by yourself."

He glanced at Abigail, who was also looking at him, his lips moving a little. He was trying to hide the love that was filled in his eyes. Being able to see her and embrace her tonight made him very happy, and he couldn’t ask for more. So he slowly turned away and left in the wheelchair with an expressionless face.

As long as Victor was here, Abby would be fine.

"Anson..." Abigail called.

Anson was slightly stunned, but he did not stop, controlling the wheelchair towards the direction of Lucian and Adonis.

Abigail held back the tears that were about to drop down and watched him leave quietly.

Didn't you say you didn't want to see me?

But why? Why you stand up for me again? Abigail asked sadly in her heart.

Why he didn’t act like what he said, staying away from her for the rest of his life? Helping her and then leaving her mercilessly made her suffer more pain.

"Abby." Eden knew that Abigail was sad, so she walked over and held her arm.

Abigail took a deep look at Eden and rested her head on her shoulder.

"Eden honey, I'm so sad. Why does he always treat me like this?" She whispered.

Eden patted Abigail’s back gently. She answered in a low and aching tone, "Maybe he needs more time. But I believe he still loves you. He has been secretly protecting and helping you all the time."

Abigail nodded slightly. Just now, she could feel his passionate emotions for her, as well as his hidden feelings.

But, why did he have to hide his feelings?

She loved him too. He avoiding her made her even more miserable.

Instead of secretly protecting her like this, she preferred him to stay by her side so that they wouldn't be in pain.

"Hey, beauty! Come here. Do you want to be an actress? I have plenty of resources. Come on." A male drunkard agent spoke to Eden with a disgusting smile.

Eden frowned slightly and took a few steps back with Abby.

Victor stepped forward and held Eden in his arms, looking at the agent coldly.

Director King also glared at the agent angrily. "Shut up, Mark!"

Mark must be blind. He even didn’t recognize Victor, the most feared man in River City.

And the woman he teased was Victor's wife, Eden, who had caused quite a stir recently.

He dared to provoke Victor. It seemed that he was tired of living.

However, Mark, who was drunk, did not think so. The more others stopped him, the more he wanted to go against others.

"Wow... Director King, I didn't expect you to know so many beautiful women. Why didn't you introduce some to me? They are the best among beauties. I want her to be with me tonight." He looked at Eden with an evil smile.

Eden prayed for him in her heart. Because the man beside her was furious to the extreme.

"Stop it, Mark." Director King looked at Mark with a wry face. He didn’t want to die with this drunk man.

I haven’t married yet! Director King yelled in his heart.

He came here to earn money from rich people, such as Victor. If Victor was willing to cooperate with him, he would be successful soon.

But now, he offended Eden, Victor’s wife, and Abigail, Victor’s wife’s friend. And he could tell that the two women had a great relationship.

"Mr... Mr. Alwynn, he's drunk. Don't waste your time on him." Director King smiled apologetically.

When he saw Victor's cold eyes, he shivered and immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at Victor.

"Really? Are you drunk?" Victor's deep voice was filled with anger.

Director King took a few steps back. But Mark was drunk into a stupor.

He stood up unsteadily and was going to walk to Eden.

Seeing Mark’s behavior, Director King knew that he could not help Mark anymore. In this case, it was more important to save himself.

He turned to Abigail and said. "Miss Joye, I have decided to let Miss Marla be the leading actor. Can you come to my company to sign the contract tomorrow? Please tell Mr. Skye that what happened today is all our fault. Tomorrow night, I will go to Mirth Company to apologize to him in person."

Abigail said in a low voice, "I don't know him."

Director King was speechless. He saw her with Anson.

He remembered clearly. And just now Anson wanted to cancel the investment because he had offended Abigail. But why did Abigail say that she did not know Anson? Director King was confused.

Marla said, "Abigail, I don’t want the role now. If he’s the director, no matter how suitable the role is, I can't act it well." She valued the character of the director very much. She hoped to meet a good agent and director as Abigail did. She knew that just caring about resources would ruin herself in the end.

Hearing her words, Abigail smiled and nodded. "Since you've made up your mind, we can look for other resources."

Although it was hard to get good scripts currently, a reliable director was more important.

"Okay! Thanks, Abigail." Marla said with a smile. After all, she had already had a role. She believed that people could see her as long as she performed every role well.

Abigail smiled and said, "Well, you and Mathilda go first. I will go with my friend."

"Okay. Bye, Abigail."

After Mathilda and Marla left, Director King looked at Abigail with a face as pale as paper.

What could he do now? He asked for everything today.

He forced a smile and said, "Miss Joye, if you change your mind, you can call me at any time. I have to go now."

Abigail shook her head slightly and answered, "Director King, don't bother. I won’t change my mind.

I was thinking that if Marla could be the leading actor, I can invest 100 million dollars. But you don't seem to like to cooperate with us very much."

Abigail's tone was very cold. Since the Vaughn family had already given up, she did not have to be too persistent. After all, the field of activity is vast with brilliant prospects where much can be accomplished. The future must hold good things for capable people like them.

"Oh..." Hearing this, Director King regretted it very much.

"What are you doing? Man up! Get this woman. I've never seen such an ignorant woman! Was there any woman in the past who didn't submit to you?" Mark suddenly came over and pointed angrily at Abigail.

At this time, Victor couldn’t endure anymore. He stepped forward and punched out on Mark’s face heavily. Mark didn't expect that he would be hitten. He felt a sharp and unbearable pain in his nose, rushing straight to his head.

Before he could scream, he fell to the ground with a loud bang. Blood gushed from his nose.
