Chapter 383 False Accusation

Day Forty-Three...

~~*****~~

Alexander looked around, observing the members of the Yan Family. Two of them were glaring at Abigail. Nadia on the other hand was trying her best to hold her tears. Madam Priyanshi was giving them a questioning gaze.

Alexander could already figure out the situation. "We are having a business meeting here. Not a romantic dinner." He said nonchalantly.

"How can you explain the flowers and the jewelry? Are you trying to cover up for them? And who are you?" Madam Lu talked back to Alexander.

"The bouquet is my courtesy to Miss Scarlett. And the jewelry is my welcome gift to her. Is there anything wrong with that?" Alexander spoke with his authoritative voice, showing his dominance. He couldn't let this old woman look down on him.

Madam Lu was about to retaliate when Alexander waved his hand.

"Are you blind, Ladies? The table is set for three... not two. I just went out to answer some calls. Who would have thought that once I came back... my room would be in chaos? Who let you in? I can sue you and the hotel for giving away my privacy. This is my executive suite!"

Madam Lu and Amara were at a loss for words. They didn't know how they would act to counter Alexander's words. Madam Priyanshi and Nadia also noticed that the table was indeed set for three people, not two.

Richard immediately apologized to Alexander as he didn't want to offend him. "Mr. Alexander, I'm sorry about this. The misunderstanding started because of me. Please let it slide..." Richard wanted to protect Nadia and Madam Priyanshi. He didn't want them to get in trouble because of this misunderstanding. Alexander was powerful enough to give them a lesson.

"I don't need your apology, CEO Chang. They were the ones who barged into my room, breaking the privacy rules of this hotel. I think they are the ones who should apologize to me... to you and most especially, to Miss Scarlett." Alexander emphasized Abigail's name. He could tell someone made a scene, splashing the wine into Abigail's ball gown.

"No way! I will not apologize to that Bi–" Amara stopped mid-sentence when she met Alexander's scrutinizing gaze. He looked mad.

"Who are you? You don't have the right to tell us what to do!" Madam Lu was not backing down.

"No need to know. All I can say is that... I'm not someone whom you want to offend." Alexander spat back at her.New n0vel chapters are published on

Abigail just let the two men deal with them. She was just enjoying the show. She didn't want to waste her time and energy. She just had to stay silent and play the victim. Besides, Richard and Alexander were there to defend her.

'I will deal with them after this Gala. For now... Let me enjoy this show.' Abigail smiled inwardly, watching them.

"Apologize to Miss Scarlett. Now!" Alexander commanded them.

Madam Lu and Amara were rooted in their spots. Alexander pointed his finger in the direction of the door. "You may also leave. You are not welcome here."

Hiding their embarrassment and humiliation, Amara and Madam Lu exited Alexander's executive room. The two ended up losing this fight.

Meanwhile, Abigail and Madam Priyanshi were now on their way to the elevator when they bumped into Nathan.

"Mr. Sparks? What are you doing here?" Madam Priyanshi recognized Nathan.

Nathan greeted her back with a polite nod. "I'm here to fetch my girlfriend." Nathan declared to her. Then he frowned when he noticed Abigail's ruined dress. "What happened to you?"

Abigail just smiled meekly and said, "It's a long story."

Madam Priyanshi could only dart her gaze back and forth between Abigail and Nathan. She wondered what their relationship was. Madam Priyanshi didn't recognize Abigail as the woman who was with Nathan before since she was in her disguise at that time.

"You have to come with me." Nathan grabbed Abigail's hand and then turned to Madam Priyanshi. "Apology, Madam Priya. I have to bring my girlfriend with me."

Madam Priyanshi was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Nathan to have two girlfriends. After a few seconds, she finally reacted.

"She is your girlfriend? Not the woman whom you brought here before?" Madam Priyanshi asked Nathan confusedly.

"She is the same person," Nathan promptly responded.

Madam Priyanshi: "..."

Nathan didn't wait for Madam Priyanshi to say another word. He pulled Abigail in a hurry. Madam Priyanshi could only watch their backs.

'Oh no! So Amara was truly mistaken. Abigail is indeed innocent. She already has Nathan Sparks. No need to seduce Richard Chang!' Madam Priyanshi could only facepalm, feeling embarrassed for what happened a while ago.

"Where are we going?" Abigail asked Nathan curiously.

"To Stephen's house. Phantomflake woke up!" Nathan informed her.

Abigail: "..."

'What the hell? I'm still stuck here in Abigail's body. How can I wake up?'
