Her Wicked Ceo (Abigail and Liam) novel Chapter 20

She didn't know what Liam was thinking about. All she knew was that this man was a fierce and ambitious man with mysteries that she couldn't understand thoroughly.

"What, what do you mean by that?" Abigail asked but felt kind of guilty for some reason.

"What do I mean? You don't know what I mean, then how dare you to beg me!" Liam sneered.

Abigail was suddenly speechless, and didn't know how to reply to him.

Liam was a man who had the last words, and she could do nothing about it.

She couldn't accept the truth that Tina would go to jail for such a little thing, and she felt that she had no choice in the matter.

'Liam must be avenging Olive.'

That was all Abigail could think of.

Abigail hesitated for a while and said, "Okay, what do you want from me?"

Abigail's words met Liam's expectations. He thought she would compromise but he did not expect it to come so fast.

I guess, one who could adapt to change quickly must be wise.

Abigail was a smart woman who knew that his requirements would be more unacceptable if she was stalling for more time.

After thinking about it, Liam said leisurely, "Are you sure?"

"Of course, people like you,, Mr. Jones won't stop until they get what they want. Why don't I take advantage of this opportunity?" Abigail said.

Liam couldn't regard these words as praise though he gave them some thought.

However, there was no denying that this was the truth.

"Actually, nothing serious. I just have a case at hand that's a little tricky. Since Miss Swift is so capable, I'm sure you can handle it." Liam said.

After hearing his words, Abigail still couldn't believe it. "That's it?"

"That's it. Otherwise, what else do you think I will ask you to do?" Hearing Abigail's words with an incredulous tone, Liam joked.

Abigail had nothing to say, "..." Liam's words were so enigmatic that no one knew what he was thinking.

But that would be for the best.

"Okay, I will accept your request and I hope you keep your words and drop the charges against Tina," Abigail said.

Liam smiled after hearing Abigail's words, and said. "Miss Swift, don't be so confident. I will consider dropping the charges only if you settle the case!"

"You..." Abigail frowned.

"But don't worry, I won't sue her for the time being, and she won't go to jail either," Liam said.

Abigail was quite relieved after hearing his words.

That would be the best she could hope for now.

It was almost impossible for Liam to give in.

"Okay, it's a deal," Abigail said.

"Fair!" Liam said softly and then continued, "Miss Swift, welcome back to work." After that, Liam hung up without saying anything.

Liam's deep eyes narrowed slightly, and a determined smile rose from the corner of his mouth as he looked at the phone.

This result was within his expectations...

However, on the other side of the phone, Abigail also breathed a sigh of relief.

Abigail didn't expect she would get back to the company in this way as she always convinced she would be leaving the Powerline Group.

Still, Tina was worth it.

But what Abigail didn't know was that this was a conspiracy especially prepared for her...
