Angel looked delighted when she heard Paisley’s words. “Really? What’s the solution?”
“Have you heard about Abbie?”
“No.” Angel shook her head. “What happened to her?”
“Abbie is dead!” Paisley said flatly, “I heard that the accident happened by the sea and they couldn’t even find her corpse.”
“Is she really dead?” Angel looked surprised.
Paisley nodded. “Yes, that’s exactly what I heard.”
“Great, that damned Abbie. I’ve been thinking about how to kill her, but even luck is on my side now!” Angel’s face was full of joy.
“Haha!” Paisley laughed. “That isn’t the case, it’s just that Abbie had a death wish.”
“Even so, I am very happy. By the way, didn’t you say that you would help me find a way? What is it?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll explain it to you slowly. There are not many people who know about Abbie’s death and Valeria is probably still clueless about it.”
“Go on.”
“Valeria and Abbie are as close as sisters. She will definitely be heartbroken if she knows that Abbie is gone. She is so pregnant now and it will be terrible if she is not careful. I’m guessing that William will definitely hide the news of Abbie’s accident until Valeria gives birth. Do you understand what I mean?”
Of course, Angel understood. “Do you want me to tell Evelyn about what happened to Abbie? That way, she can provoke Valeria and it may even lead to a miscarriage!”
“I didn’t say that, but this will all depend on how you plan it! Good luck!”
“I’ll go and find Evelyn right away.” Angel quickly stood up and walked out, but Paisley stopped her when she reached the door.
“There’s something I have to remind you of. You have to do it quickly because William is still abroad. It’ll be difficult for you once he comes back.”
Angel left Paisley’s apartment and quickly returned to her unit. There were still two hours left before her meeting with Evelyn.
She was planning to see Evelyn, but she did not intend to do that after hearing Paisley’s words.
She went back to her room and thought for more than half an hour. Then, she called Evelyn and said, “Miss Gurney, I’m sorry. I don’t think I can meet you anymore.”
“Why? Didn’t we agree to it?” Evelyn’s voice sounded unhappy.
“I didn’t want to cancel our plan, but something happened at the last minute.”
“What happened?” Evelyn asked.
“That… that… Miss Gurney, this matter is a well-kept secret, but I won’t hide it from you. Please don’t tell anyone about it.”
“I won’t tell anyone else. Don’t beat around the bush and tell me what it is.”
“I just heard that something happened to Abbie. She drowned in the sea and they couldn’t even find her corpse!”
“Really?” Evelyn was also shocked by Abbie’s news.
“Yes, The Clark family has flown over to handle this, so has my cousin. It’s too sudden. My cousin didn’t dare to tell Valeria that Abbie had an accident, and he only said that he was going to deal with official business.”
“Why didn’t you tell Valeria about Abbie’s accident?”
“Of course, it’s for the sake of Valeria’s health. She and Abbie are best friends, but she can’t handle such a traumatic blow because she’s heavily pregnant. I heard from my grandparents that this matter has to be kept a secret until Valeria gives birth.”
Evelyn was upset when she heard this, so she smiled sarcastically and said, “Haha, how could Valeria be placed on such a high pedestal in the Howard family?”
“That’s not the main point. A pregnant woman can’t handle so much shock. Valeria and Abbie have been best friends for so long, so she might get into an accident if she knows that Abbie is dead. By then, my cousin might lose his wife and children.”
Angel emphasized the last sentence. “It’s not a big deal if he loses his wife, but his children are very important to him. After all, she’s pregnant with twin boys. To tell you the truth, my cousin married Valeria because she was pregnant with twins. My uncle-in-law and my grandparents also treated Valeria well because of this.”
“Is that so?” Evelyn spat and she didn’t say anything else.
Angel knew that Evelyn needed to digest this piece of news. She reminded again in a serious tone, “Miss Gurney, don’t tell anyone about Abbie’s accident. I only told you about it and you must remember what I said. My cousin has countless admirers. If those women with ulterior motives hear about this, they will find a way to spread the news to Valeria. It might cause a huge ruckus, so you must keep it a secret!”
“All right, I got it! My lips are sealed.”
“Alright, I won’t meet you later today. Goodbye!”
Angel smiled sinisterly after she hung up. She had made it so clear that even a fool would know what to do.
It all depended on whether Evelyn dared to take the risk for William now. “Evelyn, don’t let me down!”
Evelyn frowned after she hung up. She was not a kind person. If she were a good person, she would not shamelessly cling to William like this.
After Evelyn listened to what Angel had said, she planned to ask someone to tell Valeria about Abbie’s accident.
Evelyn knew that she couldn’t do such a vicious thing in person. After all, it was related to Valeria and her children’s safety.
It would be a big deal once her plan was done. The Howard and the Saunders family would never let go of the culprit.
Therefore, she had to be careful and do this without leaving any traces.
Not only did she have to find someone to do this, but she also had to make an appointment with Valeria. It would take time for Valeria to be sent to the hospital if it happened outside and the success rate would be higher.
It would be better to ask Valeria out, and the first person Evelyn thought of was Thomas.
Thomas must have a good relationship with Valeria based on how fiercely he defended her. It should be easy for him to make an appointment with Valeria.
But what reason did she have to schedule a meeting for Thomas and Valeria?
Just as Evelyn was feeling anxious, Francis called her and asked, “Evelyn, what are you doing?”
“Nothing. Grandpa, I’m so bored.”
“Why don’t you go shopping with your friends if you’re bored?”
“I don’t have any friends here, except for Thomas. But I’m so annoyed because he doesn’t care about me.”
Francis chuckled. “Do you feel wronged?”
“Of course! Thomas is so insufferable. He didn’t even take me out after he invited me to dinner on the first day.”
“Thomas is in charge of the company and he has a lot of things to do. It’s understandable that he can’t entertain you.”
“I don’t believe that he’s so busy and he deliberately ignored me. Grandpa, you have to teach him a lesson for me!”
“Okay, I’ll come over and do that!” Francis doted on Evelyn very much.
“Really?”
“I’m already on the way and I’ll probably arrive in B City in the afternoon. I’ll be staying at Wolf Group Hotel.” Francis chuckled.
Evelyn was extremely surprised. “Is that so? Grandpa, are you really going to come to B City? That’s great!”
