Chapter 42
Abby attended Mobius‘ birthday party as the Waldorfs had invited her.
After unwrapping Abby’s gift, Mobius screamed in surprise, “This racing suit is so cool! I love
it! Thank you, Abby!”
Smiling, Abby said, “You’re welcome. It wasn’t very expensive either.” She then threw Pearl a smug gla
nce.
Pearl’s gift came in a much smaller box.
“That seems like a very half–hearted gift, Pearl…” Abby appeared conflicted.
After unwrapping the box, Mobius saw a car key inside. “I love this car! There’s only one of these cars i
n the world. It’s priceless! You’re so magical, Miss Pearl. Why do you seem to have everything?”
Mobius was ecstatic. This gift was far more precious than all the other gifts combined. It made Abby fee

“I knew Flores Firms is rich and powerful. You even looked down on such a gift, Abby” Pearl mocked.

Richard’s gift was the last, and Mobius was very curious about it. There was a property contract placed
in a square box.
“I know you like Death Valley. You’re now an adult, and starting today, the place belongs to you.”

Richard tactfully turned her down. “I’m sorry but I can’t. I have some work to handle.”
“Oh…” Abby smiled awkwardly. “Forget it then. I’ll head home on my own.”
This filled Susan with displeasure. “Rick! Abby’s asking you to send her home, so do it.”
“But Mom…” Richard stayed where he was.
“No more buts. Are you trying to make me angry?” Susan clutched her chest and gasped for breath. “Y
ou’ll give me a heart attack one day!”
Left with no choice, Richard agreed to send Abby home.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Abby lowered her gaze and said shyly, “Thank you for the ride, Rick.”
“No problem. I consider it a duty.” Richard kept his eyes on the road.
Stunned, Abby bit her l*p. “But Rick, you liked me very much when we were young. You always held my
Richard frowned. “I was being, and you’re younger than me. Of course, I should take care of you.”
“But 1..” Abby suddenly turned to him, her eyes watery. “But I love you very much. I’ve been in love with
almost ten
years.”
Surprised, Richard asked, “What?”
“You’ve had my heart since the first time we met. Have you never noticed? I thought you would marry m
