Chapter 59: Jerome's Concert
Abbie thought about how hard it was for her to stay by Kelvin's side and if she would be able tocome back if she left with Cody.
Kelvin had seen Abbie as his little sister for many years. He had divorced Cheyenne and becomesingle. If she left, what if another woman came into the picture? Someone of his status would still behighly sought after by women in Akloit even after a divorce.
However, Cody seemed determined to take Abbie back home because of their shared last name -Berry - which made them both part of the Berry family.
After returning home, if she didn't go back to the Berry mansion, the media outside would say allsorts of nasty things about Abbie. Secondly, Kelvin's attitude towards Abbie was unclear and shewas currently a useful pawn. If it fell into his hands, he could use it to restrain Kelvin.
Abbie hesitated for a moment before saying, "No, I'm good here. Thank you for the invitation, Uncle,but Kelvin still needs me right now, so I want to stay here and take care of him."
Cody chuckled coldly after hearing this and calmly replied to her, saying, "It was Mr. Foley whoasked me to come pick you up. He said that our uncle-nephew duo should have a good reunion."
"Don't disappoint Mr. Foley's kindness, Abbie; I haven't seen you in three years and is really lookingforward to it."
"Your cousin and aunt are also waiting for you at home."
Kelvin said this?
Suddenly Abbie felt a dull pain in her heart as if someone had torn open a wound causing blood toflow out.
She had been by Kelvin's side for so many years, just hoping they could reunite again but heactually took the initiative to chase her away.
Meanwhile upstairs the servants were already starting to pack Abbie's luggage.
The person who came to see her off was none other than Chris, Kelvin's assistant, and it should bereally Kelvin's decision.
She sucked in a breath of cool air without a trace.
Abbie's face showed a bitter smile.
"I miss my aunt and cousin too, so I'll go back with my uncle."
Chris, the assistant, came down from upstairs with Abbie's suitcase and spoke respectfully to her.
"Miss Berry, your luggage is packed. You can get on the car anytime."
Abbie couldn't be more angry about this assistant who was against her now.
'Does he only see Cheyenne as Kelvin's wife? If I became Kelvin's wife, Chris would be the first oneto be fired.'
Abbie finally chose to go back with Cody.
On the way, Cody looked at her expression which was a bit pale and asked with concern, "Is thewind too strong? Should I close the car windows?"
Abbie smiled and shook her head, "Thank you, no need, I'm fine."
Cody naturally understood that she couldn't leave Kelvin, and said with a wry smile, "if love is meantto last forever, it doesn't depend on seeing each other every day."
"I think Mr. Foley's attitude towards you might even become more affectionate if you leave for a fewdays," he added with a knowing smile.
"Men understand men's thoughts best," he continued.novelbin
Abbie couldn't help but feel that what he said made sense and nodded in agreement. The car fellinto silence for the next half hour until they arrived at an opulent European-style mansion in anaffluent area.
Cody was 46 years old and married to Jazzlyn Cline, a university history professor from anintellectual family who was quite arrogant. She had never been fond of Abbie since Abbie was littlebecause she thought Abbie looked too gloomy and had sharp eyes that were not typical of children.
Jazzlyn and Cody had a daughter named Jane Berry who was 23 years old, three years youngerthan Abbie. Jane just graduated from college with a degree in finance and currently worked as thefinancial director at a financial company.
When Jane saw Abbie, there was a faint smile on her face mixed with envy because this unknowncousin happened to be Mr. Foley's sweetheart.
Jane walked up and pretended to be friendly as she took Abbie's hand. "Cousin, come on over. It'sbeen years since we've seen each other."
"It's only been three years," Abbie replied. "You've grown so much! Have you graduated yet?"
Jane smiled inwardly. "I graduated a long time ago."
Abbie seemed fake in her concern for Jane; if she really cared, she would have known that Janehad graduated this year.
Cody saw the two sisters having fun and called the servants to start cooking while he invited Abbieinside.
Later that evening around six or seven o'clock, Kate called Cheyenne and asked her to hurry downto the mall in downtown for a performance that was about to begin.
Jerome was truly a top-tier celebrity; when he appeared, the entire street was packed with people.
After Cheyenne finished getting dressed up simply in a white cotton dress and high heels, shedrove her own car worth 20 million dollars towards downtown.
A temporary stage in the middle of the mall hall had been set up for the concert. It was now full ofpeople holding LED light boards with Jerome's name on them along with personal posters goingcrazy below him shouting his nickname.
"Jerome! Jerome is amazing!"
"Fairy! Oh my god, his look today is really cool!"
Even before he started performing, there were already people fainting because of his appearancealone.
Cheyenne parked her luxury car on the side of the road and leaned against the door, arms crossed,watching the crazy scene in front of her. It was so noisy.
Kate spotted her from afar and walked over happily, handing her a glow stick.
"Cheyenne, you're here! Come with me to see Jerome backstage. He's so handsome!" Kateexclaimed as she dragged Cheyenne towards backstage without waiting for a response.
"Why do we need to go backstage? Isn't the performance about to start? Let's just watch frombelow," Cheyenne protested.
Kate thought for a moment and realized that she was right. She tapped herself on the head inconfusion and said with a laugh. "Okay then, we'll go later. Wear this glow wristband with me."
Cheyenne looked at Kate's wristband with disdain. "No thanks, it's stupid."
"How is it stupid? It shows our love for Jerome," Kate argued back.
The two stumbled into the crowd feeling waves of sound around them. Cheyenne couldn't help butthink that being on stage versus off stage felt completely different!
"Wow! Jerome... Jerome is coming out!"
As Cheyenne heard the screams of her female fans, she turned to look. In the middle of themagnificent rising and falling stage was a circular ladder that slowly ascended. A young mandressed in a black sequined jacket and blue ripped jeans, with silver-white hair, walked down fromthe ladder.
Why did he seem so familiar?
