It wasn’t long before the door was opened, but Amanda was extremely nervous because she was
going to meet an elder.
Abbott also had watched her grow up.
One year was neither long nor short, but so many things had happened. Amanda also had changed a
lot. She realized that there was a dark side to this world.
After a short while, the door was opened.
Abbott, in a suit, looked the same as he was when he was young. His face had the trace of the years.
When seeing Amanda, he wasn’t surprised at all.
He moved aside and said, “Come in, please.”
Amanda pressed her lips and greeted him in a low voice, “Hi, Abbott.”
He hummed.
She entered his room.
The room was exactly the same as her, just on a different story.
“Well...”
“If you want to ask anything, please go ahead.” Abbott was quite straightforward. Looking at her, he
slightly heaved a sigh, “Girl, you’ve worried us so much. An old man’s sayings are seldom untrue, but
you didn’t listen...”
Amanda lowered her head slightly.
She knew he would scold her when they met.
“Abbott,” she looked up at him with a smile and said, “Can’t we just stop talking about things in the
past, OK?”
Abbott sat down, “Have you made up your mind? I can resolve the issues here for you. You can go
back...”
“No, Abbott,” Amanda interrupted him, “I’ve made the mistake, Why should I leave you to resolve the
issues for me? I’m a grownup now. I can resolve them on my own.”
Abbott stared at her expressionlessly for a few seconds.
Under his gaze, Amanda was a bit uneasy.
“Yes, Abbott?”
Abbott stood up and took out a USB drive from the cabinet with the lock. He walked over and gave it to
her.
Amanda reached out and took it. She asked, “What’s this?”
“Take a look at yourself.” Abbott pushed the laptop in front of her.
She was confused. Inserting the USB drive into the laptop, she opened the file.
Soon, Amanda saw the video clip. She widened her eyes.
“Isn’t this...”
In the video, she saw the scene when Lindsay kidnapped her from the villa.
“Why did you have it?” asked Amanda.
“After knowing something happened to you, we were a bit late when rushing over. Fortunately, you
were rescued and you asked someone to change the dead’s DNA report to fake death. However, the
person you asked didn’t have any background or network. He couldn’t do it for you at all.”
Indeed, Amanda also knew that Casimir couldn’t cover the whole incident without any trace so that he
could deceive Stanford.
She didn’t realize it until later.
“By the way, I heard a man and a woman were killed in the fire. What happened, Abbott?”
“The two men who kidnapped you were said to be a man and a woman instead. One of them was used
to cover your identity.” As Abbott spoke, he still could recall how terrible Matthew looked at that time.
He had been working for Matthew for almost all his life and had seen Matthew’s different sides.
However, that was the only time when Matthew wanted to kill someone without any care.
As for the fire, it was because Matthew also wanted them to experience being burned.
“We didn’t do anything to that woman also because of you.” Abbott took a sip of the water.
After the incident happened to Amanda, they had done a lot of things. They covered the truth that she
hadn’t died, found out the evidence that she was set up, contacted the hospital for her, and helped her
enter RM Group.
They had known who Stanford was quite a long time ago, and they warned Amanda several times.
However, their conversations always ended quite unhappily. Amanda didn’t want to listen to them,
refusing to talk to them.
Later, they realized that she truly loved Stanford so much that she could care about nothing else.
Hence, they stopped trying to convince her.
Matthew had also done a lot of things for her. He left WY Group to Amanda. However, almost all the
major businesses had been merged into the other branch company RM Group at that time.
In the end, WY Group was just an empty shell without any core businesses.
Amanda could enter RM Group and work with J&Y Group was because they had arranged for her
ahead.
She just didn’t know that Abbott was in charge of RM Group.
Neither did she know that it was a business belonging to the Nelson family.
Abbott said solemnly, “In fact, it’s a good thing. If you’ve never experienced such a thing, how could
you know the evil side of human beings? When your parents were young, they had experienced more
difficulties than you had. I hope you can become mature after experiencing this matter.”
“Why did you cover the truth that I’m still alive?”
“Wouldn’t it be safer for you if you were known as dead?” asked Abbott.
That was decided by Matthew when he got to know that Amanda intended to cover the truth that she
was still alive. He helped her do it.
A lot of people thought that she had died.
Later, when Amanda appeared in this city, no one would want to harm her. She would be safe.
It would be convenient for her to do anything.
“Mr. Nelson thought that Sanford James would fall in love with you. Even if he had hatred, he would
probably steal WY Group from your hand. However, we never thought that he had such a woman with
evil intentions around him. For this matter, your mother was in a fight with your father because he had
agreed on you to marry Stanford James.”
Amanda pressed her lips in silence.
“By the way, do you still remember what happened at the charity banquet?” Abbott looked at her and
told her everything, “We found that ring on the scene.”
“Were you also the one who offered the bid?” Amanda reacted quickly.
“Yeah. I just wanted to know if that man who was blind by his hatred would still have a trace of
humanity. It seemed he was still a human. However, I robbed a lot of money from him and donated it to
people in need.” Abbott leaned against the back of the sofa.
Jasmine was the founder of ‘I Have A Dream’ Foundation.
Due to her family background, she founded ‘I Have A Dream’ Foundation. With Boyce’s help and
Matthew’s investment at the early stage, it developed very well.
‘I Have A Dream’ Foundation had a good reputation and helped a lot of people.
The elementary school in which Jasmine used to teach had developed into a talent education school
with both political integrity and ability. It had strong teaching resources and influences, helping kids
born in ordinary families.
Besides giving birth to two children for Boyce, Jasmine’s greatest success was founding ‘I Have A
Dream’ Foundation and fulfilled her dream.
Amanda understood that the revenge that she had thought was based on their help. All she needed
was to follow their arrangement and carry on.
Suddenly, she felt a bit frustrated. Since childhood, she was spoiled by so many people. She could get
whatever she wanted and was always worry-free. After the incident happened, she wanted to rely on
herself for the first time.
However, she made a mistake again - she was still under the protection.
She was quite stubborn and always eager to excel. After this incident happened, she pretended as if
nothing had happened.
Abbott had never expected that she would understand everything and come to him so quickly.
If it weren’t for Casimir, Amanda wouldn’t have come to him so soon.
However, she felt so fortunate that she had done it as she got to know everything.
She suddenly recalled her purpose to come here.
Thinking about Casimir, the hammered guy in her room, Amanda didn’t know what to do.
Right then, Abbott already had a family and children.
“Well, Abbott, when will you go home?” asked Amanda.
“I haven’t resolved the issues here yet.” Abbott looked at her, “Why would you care?”
“I’m afraid it might impact your relationship with your wife if you are apart from home for a long time.”
Abbott choked up.
“Why do you care about me so much?” He felt flattered, wondering why Amanda cared about his
relationship with his wife.
Amanda put on a wry smile, wondering how she should start.
