Chapter 453
Margaret walked into Abby’s small bedroom and called the little girl, who was still lying in her tiny pinkbed.
“Hmm… I’ll talk to her another day. I want to sleep.”
Abby curled up and retreated into her blanket.
She knew that Renee would interrogate her sternly, but she promised Adie that she would neverexpose his whereabouts. She could offend neither, so … she chose to hide.
“Abby, be good. Your mommy has to ask you something very important. Come out now!”
Margaret tried to persuade the small bundle that was balled up under the sheets.
“No, I’m sleepy, and I want to sleep! Tell Mommy to call later!”
After that, Abby said tenderly before she made snoring noises, “I’m sleeping, so I can’t hear you guys.”
Margaret appeared slightly awkward. She tried her best to pull aside the blanket that Abby was under,but the little girl had wrapped herself as tightly as a burrito. Consequently, Margaret failed to pull itaside.novelbin
After a few failed attempts, she was so exhausted that her forehead was drenched in sweat. Shepanted and exclaimed, “Miss… look. What should I do now?”
Renee’s face turned cold, and a serious expression took over her calm face, infuriated by Abby’swillfulness.
She took a deep breath and put her hands on her waist before she shouted, “Abigail Everheart!’
Almost instantly, Abby whooshed out from under the blanket and revealed a fair and pretty face. Herface looked like a red apple, which was rather charming.
“Mommy, mommy, don’t be mad. I’ll tell you everything!”
Abby blinked her large, watery eyes. She had given up fighting.
She could not help it. Whenever her mother called the siblings by their full names, it meant she wasindeed furious. If she did not behave, the consequences would only prove too severe to handle.
Tm sorry, Adie. I’ve got to betray you for the time being so Mommy won’t be angry…’ she thought.
Renee’s serious face softened slightly before she said gently, “Good girl, Abby. Tell me what happened.Where is Adie now?”
“Mommy, promise me one thing: You can’t get mad at Adie and me if I tell you.”
Abby was smart, so she negotiated a term with Renee first.
“Don’t worry. I won’t get mad.”
Renee tried her best to force a bright smile. However, she had long clenched her fists into tight balls.
She exclaimed inwardly, “Humph! I’ll teach them a hard lesson if they dare to act recklessly!”
“Mommy, it’s like this. Adie was very worried that you’d get bullied by bad guys after you went to BeachCity, so he came up with a way to protect you… He successfully came up with the plan a few days ago,and he’s now in Beach City.”
Abby told Renee the ins and outs of the whole incident with very clear logic.
Adie was her superhero. The plan he designed to protect their mother was no mean feat-it was aperfectly sound and operational plan that was scientifically viable.
If Margaret did not realize that Adie went missing that day and subsequently exposed their plans, shewould have given it her full support.
‘What? Did Adie… come to Beach City?”
After Renee listened to Abby’s description, she had a headache. She immediately pinched the spotabove her lips, afraid she might faint from the wave of anger that washed over her.
