at her before packing her stuff in the bathroom. Not wanting to see that middle-aged woman’s face, Abigail closed the bathroom door and locked it.The middle-aged woman was tasked with keeping an eye on Abigail, so she quickly knocked on the bathroom door when she saw that it was locked. “Open the door! You’d better not try anything funny in there!”“Stop knocking, will you? I just need to use the bathroom!” Abigail retorted impatiently.“You can use the one back at your house! Now, pack your stuff quickly and leave, you shameless woman!”“Who are you calling shameless?”“You, obviously!”The two soon ended up in a fierce argument which escalated into a fight.As Abigail was up against a few people at once, the security guards were able to subdue her with ease and throw her out of the house.All the housekeepers in the mansion saw the nasty state she was in, so they knew she must have done something horrible.Feeling humiliated by the way she was thrown out, Abigail swore to return and teach them all a lesson someday in the future.The more she thought about her predicament, the angrier she got. Eventually, she turned around and shouted in the direction of the mansion, “Fairchild, Garland, and all you lapdogs of the Fairchild family! One day, I will return and get my revenge! Those of you who mocked me today shall apologize to me!”Those words had barely left her mouth when a car pulled up next to her.A man with a face mask and hat on stuck his head out the car window and said in a hoarse voice, “Get in the car.” He sounded as though he had suffered a throat injury.Abigail stared at him and asked, “Why would I do that?

I heard what you were shouting about, and I think we’ll make very good allies,” the man said.“What do you mean?”“Winnie and Xavier,” the man replied with a snicker.Abigail’s eyes lit up when she heard that. “You have a grudge against them?”“Why don’t you get in the car so we can discuss this further?”“Fine. I don’t feel like walking anyway!” Abigail said as she got into the passenger seat.After fastening her seat belt, she glared at the mysterious man next to her and asked, “Mind taking off your hat and face mask? You talked about forming an alliance with me, but I don’t even know what you look like.”The man looked at Abigail as he replied, “Be patient. Now isn’t the right time to reveal my face to you. I don’t want to scare you off so soon.”“Scare me off? Do you have a very ugly face or something?” Abigail asked while stealing a glance at him.The man narrowed his eyes. “I looked all right before my face was disfigured in a fire.”Abigail quickly retracted her gaze after hearing that. “Oh, I see… In that case, you can keep your face mask on.”Not wanting to affect Winnie with his bad mood, Xavier quickly calmed himself down and sent Winnie to Sebastian’s place after breakfast.It was autumn at the time, so the leaves on the trees outside had changed colors.Instead of trying to avoid talking about the scenery, he played the role of her eyes and described what he saw
