Day Thirty-Eight...
~~*****~~
The Dragon Lord arrived at Country M. He also brought Jack with him. Spade was still undergoing recovery because of the gunshot wounds he had received.
Though Spade's condition was already stable, he was still admitted to the hospital for complete rest. Jack was also secretly investigating who the traitor was.
But his investigation was interrupted when he received an order from the Dragon Lord that he should accompany him to Country M.
The Dragon Lord had set his eyes on his target– Abigail Scarlet.
"All the preparation is set. Do you want to meet her before the Star Gala Night?" Jack asked his Boss.
"I sent a man to monitor her. He is tailing her right now. She has a bodyguard with her. She went to the CEO's villa to visit her manager and personal assistant." Jack informed the Dragon Lord.
"Why is it that her assistant and manager are staying in one of the villas of Star Corp Entertainment?" The Dragon Lord frowned in puzzlement. "Does she have an illicit relationship with an engaged man?"
The Dragon Lord met Richard Chang twice. He was aware that this man was engaged to Nadia Patel, the heiress of the Patel Conglomerates.
"That was just a rumor. But no one confirmed their relationship. Richard Chang claims that Abigail Scarlett is born to be a superstar so he is backing her based on her talents and skills as an actress."
Jack picked up a folder, presenting a file related to people close to Abigail Scarlett. One of the files contained information about Richard and Nadia.
"The two are going strong despite the rumors about Abigail and Richard. So the issue might be false. Some are just using it to defame the actress and ruin her booming career."
Jack already informed the Dragon Lord about Abigail's scandal– her suicide attempt. After that, he managed to collect more information related to Abigail Scarlett.
"Something is fishy about her..."The Dragon Lord mumbled, his eyes fixed on the files. He was assessing Abigail's photo.Folloow current novÊls on nov/3lb((in).(co/m)
"Got it, Miss Abi. Just call me right away if you need me." The bodyguard left instantly to follow the guy.
Abigail heaved a sigh of relief. She had nothing to worry about. She was aware that Nathan was using the bodyguard to monitor her every movement. Nathan was spying on her through her bodyguard.
"Abi!!! Why are you still standing there? Let's go!" Ana called her attention. Santra and Ana were already inside, waiting for her.
"Yes. I'm coming!"
Ana grabbed Abigail's hand, pulling her toward Celeste's boutique. Celeste's assistant welcomed them warmly when they entered the boutique. She was familiar with Santra and Ana, but she failed to recognize Abigail since she was wearing a disguise. She was still careful not to be spotted in public places by her fans.
"Welcome Ma'am, Miss Celeste is in her office. She has a meeting with someone. But they are about to finish so you can stay in our lounge area or look around while waiting for Miss Celeste," the assistant guided them inside.
"By the way, did your customer from AMB Diamond Corporation come here to visit?" Ana asked the assistant. They could still remember the handsome man whom they bumped into before. Santra and Ana both had a crush on him. Unfortunately, they didn't get his name.
"Actually, the person inside is also from AMB Diamond Corporation. They are offering a project to our Miss Celeste. It's a collaboration project!" The assistant informed them.
Abigail's eyebrows twitched as soon as she heard AMB Diamond Corporation. She was reminded of Helena Carlsen, the daughter of the Chairman of AMB Diamond Corporation. She was the woman who was about to steal Nathan from her.
'Don't tell me... the person who has a meeting with Celeste is none other than Helena Carlsen?' Abigail crumpled her face and tightened her fingers into fists.
Without a second thought, Abigail moved forward, tracing her steps toward Celeste's office.
Ana and Santra exchanged glances with one another. "What is she planning to do? The meeting is still ongoing. It will be rude to barge in!" Santra blurted out in puzzlement.
"Eh... I don't think she will barge in to interrupt the-," Ana stopped midway as soon as she saw Abigail turning the doorknob and pushing the door open without knocking.
Santra: "Uh-oh!"
Ana: "..."
