Abigail still couldn\'t get over the things she heard from Bam-Bam. She wanted to slice that flying creature into tiny pieces. He didn\'t disclose what happened after that scene. Now she was left alone wondering about that moment. Did she kiss him or not?

Abigail didn\'t know how she would face Nathan without getting embarrassed. She was so silly to tell him those words as if she fell head over heels for him.

Was she really thinking about kissing him because he is handsome? Or her mind was just in a mess because of the truth serum? Was it her hidden desire buried deep inside her heart?

She cringed just thinking about that. She shook her head and pushed the unwanted thoughts to the back of her mind.

"I need to clear my mind," Abigail said, standing up before grabbing her purse. She got some money to spend, given to her by Butler Li.

She borrowed money from him as she didn\'t have her personal savings. All her belongings were left in her apartment. Her personal assistant and her manager might have kept her passbook and savings account.

Fortunately, Nathan\'s staff and helpers in the mansion had a high salary. It was five times bigger than her starting salary or talent fee when she got into show business. Now, she knew how much Chef Min regretted his actions. He was kicked out of the mansion so he also kissed his hundred thousand dollar salary goodbye.

She already used her third wish from Butler Li. Through this, she got enough money to pay for her personal expenses.

"Miss Abi, where are you going?" Butler Li asked Abigail when she passed by the hallway. Butler Li was on his way to Nathan\'s room to clean it when he bumped into Abigail.

"I\'m going out for a while to buy some clothes." Abigail would go to Country F two days from now, together with Kathleen. She needed some proper clothes for the trip.

"Okay, Miss Abi. Do you want me to accompany you? Or shall I ask one of Master Nathan\'s bodyguards to come with you?" Butler Li was aware that Abigail might be in danger. He was one of the few people who knew about the truth behind Abigail\'s suicide attempt.

Since Abigail trusted Butler Li, she told him the truth that she didn\'t commit suicide but someone was after her life.

"I\'m fine. I want to go alone." Abigail insisted.

"But Master Nathan told me not to let you wander in public places." Butler Li was still concerned about her safety. Furthermore, Nathan gave him a task to keep Abigail in his sight.

The devil was afraid that Abigail would get in trouble again once she was left alone… just like what happened during the Masquerade Ball at EDSJ Five Star Hotel.

"He is not here. And I know what I\'m doing. I will be more careful. Besides, this is my life," Abigail stubbornly said. She didn\'t want to be controlled by Nathan. She was not his prisoner.

"Okay. Miss Abi. Calm down. Don\'t get mad. I will not stop you. Have you forgotten? I\'m on your side!" Butler Li let out a soft chuckle as he pacified Abigail.

Abigail could only nod her head. "By the way, have you found a new Chef?"

"Not yet, Miss Abi… I\'m still looking for someone. Sigh. I hope I can find a person who is better than Chef Min." Butler Li took a deep sigh.

"Can I apply? The salary of the Chief Cook here is very tempting." Abigail said with a straight face.

Butler Li didn\'t know if she was serious or she was just joking. He scratched his face as he maintained his wide grin.

"Miss Abi, why don\'t you ask Master Nathan directly? Are you not planning to come back to the entertainment and let your fans know that you are still alive? I think Master Nathan can help you catch the culprit so you have nothing to worry about if you want to go back to work!"

"Hmm. I will think about it," Abigail said before waving her hand. She said goodbye to Butler Li. And her destination in mind was a store in a black market where she could buy spying devices and some tools she often use during assassinations.

An unknown person was after Abigail\'s life. She must protect this body and this identity at all costs until she succeeds in her mission and returns to her original body.

If she had to kill someone to protect her temporary body, she would never hesitate to do that. This was the only way for her to survive. She still had lots of things to do. And one of them was to make Nathan Sparks suffer a hundredfold.

But before targeting Nathan, she had to eliminate potential threats and catch the culprit who wanted Abigail Scarlett dead.

When Abigail left the mansion, she made sure that no one was following her. Still wearing her disguise, Abigail proceeded to a place where she often bought equipment, weapons, and gears.

Abigail felt so blissful that she was able to come back to this shop after so long. The familiar scent of rubber, metal, gunpowder, and steel gave her euphoria. She missed performing her job and doing dangerous yet exciting missions.

Exploring the shop, she didn\'t expect that she would encounter someone with whom she was very familiar.

She excitedly sprinted to the area where daggers, needles, and poisons were being displayed only to bump someone.

"Aah!"

"Aww!"

The two of them grunted from the impact of their collision. Abigail was going to scold the person but stopped midway as she was flabbergasted to see her face. Abigail couldn\'t hide the utter shock in her emerald eyes.

"Miss, are you okay? I\'m sorry I didn\'t notice your presence as I was busy checking my phone. Are you hurt?" A familiar feminine voice was heard.

\'Black Rose?! She is… alive!\' Abigail screamed in her mind as she lost the ability to speak. She didn\'t expect that she would see her again. She thought everyone died that night… including Black Rose.
