Chapter 830 Reunion With An Acquaintance
Tears danced in Abigail's eyes. "Why are you leaving me behind? I've become more capable thanthe old me."
"Abby, sure, you're capable, but your presence here is pertinent. Say, if Luna's rescued, hersanctuary is here. You've got allies here, too," Sean consoled, wrapped her in an embrace, andaffirmed his promise. "I'll be back."
Abigail held him tightly. "Is Jonell a formidable opponent?"
"I haven't fully assessed the situation yet, but as a precaution, we need someone to remain here.There's a floor that has been converted into an operating room. Should there be any emergencies,they would need someone calm and sensible. Xavien might be capable, but you're on the ball,"came Sean's whispers.
Abigail bit her lip in the silence.
The existence of an operating room hidden within the hotel indicated that Sean was aware of theprecarious circumstances.
He whispered again after releasing Abigail from his embrace. "Fret not; I'll protect myself as I stillwant to make you my wife."
The tears swam in her eyes. "Sure."
Just before he entered the car to leave the hotel grounds, he gazed at Abigail's residence beforeheading off.
The fact that someone had Jonell's past wiped clean had already hinted at ominous secrets, andSean's recent receipt of trouble information left him worried for Luna and Eric's well-being.
There was no denying Jonell could have moved Luna to a different location the moment Abigail andSean landed.
If Jonell could treat his own nephew in such a manner, there was no thinking about what his erasedpasts constituted. Luna already suspected that the man had changed when she ran into him theother night.novelbin

Days later, a bang roused Abigail from her sleep as gunfire erupted outside in the wee hours.
It was a familiar sound, so she hid underneath the bed as the gunfire outside intensified.
There was urgency in Xavien's words as he burst in. "Ms. Quinn…"
He couldn't locate Abigail and frowned, yelling, "Ms. Quinn!"
Emerging from her hideout, Abigail demanded answers and was ready to act.
"A disguised intruder killed the guards. We need to move fast. Let's go!" Xavien urged.
"I'll remain behind." Abigail, brazen and resolute, held her ground.
A person in a waiter's attire entered with a raised gun, which prompted Abigail to fire at himimmediately.
With a resounding "bang," she shot him in the head.
Xavien stood in shock for a moment as he holstered his weapon and began typing on his laptop.
"Hurry and finish up in five minutes," Abigail instructed as she advanced.
She remained vigilant.
The ongoing gunfire outside indicated the presence of numerous infiltrators.
Xavien followed her lead and typed rapidly on his keyboard in a state of nervousness.
Abigail leaned against the door as she observed the shadows on the opposite side.
When she observed a figure approaching slowly, Abigail removed her pajamas and tossed themaside.
To Xavien's astonishment, Abigail turned and fired a shot, which caused the individual outside tocollapse.
She retreated and shut the door. "Step back."
At that moment, she was only clad in a bra.
Her sun-kissed skin was glistened with a thin layer of sweat, and it exuded a seductive allure.
Xavien's face flushed instantly.
Abigail returned to the room. She donned a coat and then fired two shots to shatter the curtains andglass.
Xavien typed on the keyboard and observed Abigail as she swiftly tore the curtains into strips andsecured them to the aluminum window frame.
"Did you find it?" Abigail inquired once she had finished.
"Based on the reports from my men, those individuals seem to be primarily concentrated on ourfloor. Should I keep you company?" Xavien felt confident that Abigail could handle the situation on
her own.
Simond was truly remarkable as she managed to train someone in self-defense skills in just sixmonths.
"Okay." Abigail and Xavien were agreeable to that.
They used their mobile devices to remain in constant touch.
Xavien remained hidden in another room while Abigail moved to the locations he had identified andtook down each thug one by one.
Night fell as the shots of gunfire fell into silence. Abigail regrouped while Xavien dealt with theauthorities.
The scent of metal lingered in the air as she relaxed in the bathtub after shedding her blood-stainedclothes.
After she soaked for nearly an hour, she emerged from the tub, changed into fresh pajamas, andheaded towards the bathroom door.
Someone caught hold of her neck the moment she emerged from the bathroom. After being shovedagainst the wall, a gun was aimed at her stomach.
As she looked up, she met the gaze of the man holding her, and her eyes widened in recognition.
"It's been a while, you've been stronger," the man holding her neck remarked, and he had a chillingsmile on his face.
As she felt the gun pressing harder against her, Abigail's panic intensified. Beads of sweat formedon her forehead. "It's been some time, but your family's issues are not my concern. Why are you
treating me like this?"
"Not worth for you to know. I'm here to bring you with me," the man stated, after which he forcefullystabbed the syringe into Abigail's shoulder.
Abigail felt a sharp pain as the cold liquid began to spread from her neck.
