Chapter 119 Abigail’s Disappearance

Day Ten…

~~*****~~

[ At Star Corp Entertainment Building… ]

Abigail's assistant, Santra, and her manager, Ana were talking inside their mini-office. The two looked so haggard. Dark circles could be seen under their eyes.

The two women couldn't sleep at night just thinking about Abigail. Her body was still missing until now. No one knew who took her from the hospital.

Was she alright? The last thing the doctor said to them was that Abigail was in critical condition and she suffered a lot from that fall. She didn't even guarantee if Abigail could still recover.

She received numerous bone fractures, including her skull. It was just a miracle that she was still breathing when reached the hospital. She was supposed to die on the spot after falling from the 13th floor.

"What are we going to do now, Miss Ana?" Santra asked the manager worriedly. "Should we inform the police about Abigail's disappearance? What if an obsessed fan did this to her? Perhaps, this might be a scheme of that perverted old man, Jun Shen!" Santra began to speculate on the real culprit for Abigail's disappearance.

"Sigh. But the management warned us not to disclose any information and keep this from the public. They already hired someone to investigate Abi's disappearance. They are already looking for her," Ana replied.

"As time goes by, Abigail is slowly losing projects and resources. Other artists are stealing her projects. What are we going to do to stop this? Abigail will be sad once she regains consciousness." Santra became emotional as she thought about Abigail.

"I will not let that happen. I will talk to the CEO. We must protect Abi's projects until she returns," Ana said with so much determination in her voice. She clenched her fists tightly.

The two women were still optimistic that Abigail would return. Although her suicide attempt remained a mystery to them. As far as they knew, Abigail had no reason to commit suicide.

Abigail called the two women and her voice was cheerful and lively as if she was excited about something. She seemed like she was supposed to meet someone in that hotel. But the reception said no one came to see Abigail in her hotel room.

Only a hotel guest could enter that floor. Each floor has a unique elevator access keycard. Random people were not allowed to go into the building without checking in. And on the day of that incident, only four hotel guests were on the same floor as Abigail.

"The Star Gala is drawing near. Abigail is looking forward to attending this gathering. I'm so sad for her. She's not here." Santra continued to share her sentiments with Ana. Her eyes were burned with tears.

Abigail was so down to earth. She was so kind to her personal assistant and her manager. She was so humble despite the sudden fame she gained after entering the show business. She was also very dedicated to her work.

"Sigh. Let's pray for her safety. The CEO is doing his best to find Abigail. Let's trust him." Ana said, comforting Santra who was still worried sick about Abigail.

"Have you contacted Dave? Ever since Abigail's suicide, he never showed up!" A cold glint flashed through Ana's eyes. "I swear, I'm gonna beat that guy once I see him!"

"What if he cheated on her? Do you think the two of them fought before her suicide? What if he was the reason she did it?" Santra began to think about this possibility. Dave was Abigail's childhood friend and her rumored boyfriend.

"If Dave truly broke her heart, Abi is a strong-willed woman. She will not commit suicide just because of a worthless guy who doesn't deserve her love."

Ana still refused to believe that Abigail could do such a thing. Abigail had been through a lot before she reached her current position in the Entertainment Industry. She also had a sad past.

"How about the rumor between Abi and our Star Corp CEO? Do you believe it?" Santra asked Ana quizzically.

"No. I think someone is trying to make an issue out of this. Jealous people are backstabbing Abigail because of the support she gets from the management. She gained those resources because of her talents and capabilities, not because of personal connections!" Ana defended Abigail.

"Let's trust the CEO. I believe he will find Abigail soon…" Ana added with hopeful eyes.

"Yes, Miss Ana. For Abi's sake, we have to trust him. He is the only person who can help us in times like this. I want to find Abi… I missed her already. I hope she is safe." Santra looked at the spot where Abigail usually sat whenever she would stay in the office to read and practice her scripts.

Meanwhile, the person whom they were talking about already arrived at the Sparks Mansion after saying goodbye to Cherry. Abigail was truly in a good mood today because she was reunited with Black Rose.

She immediately looked for Butler Li upon entering the house.

"Butler Li!!" She called him enthusiastically when she saw him descending from the stairs.

Butler Li just greeted her, waving his hand. He seldom saw Abigail smiling from ear to ear like this. He wondered what made her so happy today.

"What's up, Miss Abi? Do you need something from me?" Butler Li asked her right away when he reached her spot.

Abigail enthusiastically held his shoulders and shook his body before saying, "I found a perfect applicant to be our Chef, replacing Chef Min! I am highly recommending her and I hope you will pick her. This is my fourth wish. Please grant me this!"

Butler Li: "..."

The butler could no longer refuse her because she used this as her fourth wish. But he was worried about his Master Nathan's reaction. He didn't know if he would approve of someone whom Abigail recommended.

As Abigail could see his concern, she said to him, "Don't worry about Nathan. I will convince him myself." Abigail reassured him.

Since it already came from Abigail, Butler Li just raised his thumb. "Okay, Miss Abi! Inform her that she can start working by tomorrow!"

Abigail was as happy as a clam thinking that she and Black Rose would be staying under one roof!
