Chapter 20 He Carried Her Upstairs 

The man with purple hair swung his baseball bat towards Aria. 

Aria dodged. 

While she was running away, she also picked up a stick on the road! While evading the attack, she swung the stick towards the man! 

Then she swung it and hit two more men. 

Finally, they escaped from the encirclement. 

Aria threw away the stick in her hand! She grabbed Abigail’s hand and continued to run! 

It was only then that she noticed Abigail limping. It must have happened when they were escaping together, maybe she got hit or twisted her leg. 

“Abigail, I’m sorry.” Aria apologized. 

Abigail looked at her, “If someone has to apologize, shouldn’t it be me? After all, it’s because of me that you offended Aubrey.” 

Aria, “…” 

The relationship between her and Aubrey is complicated, and it’s true that Abigail had a role in offending Aubrey, but it’s not the main reason! 

And… 

Thinking about the last thing the man with purple hair said. 

Although Aria couldn’t be sure, it must be related to that man, right? 

So these people came to cause trouble for her not because over a month ago, she mercilessly ridiculed Aubrey because of Abigail. 

But because of Miss Blackwood. 

She is Miss Blackwood, the heiress of the Blackwood family, a prominent family in Commerceville, and she is engaged to that man! Her family is far superior to Aubrey’s nouveau riche family! 

“Abigail, I’ll take you to the hospital first.” 

Aria took Abigail to the hospital. 

Then, Christina, who had heard about Abigail’s injury, hurriedly rushed over! “Abigail, what happened to you?* 

“Why were you suddenly attacked?” 

“How’s your leg? Is the bone broken?” 

Abigail, “It’s just a few bone fractures, no breaks.” 

Christina stared at Abigail, and with great concern, she said, “Even bone fractures are not a small matter! It takes a hundred days to heal bones and tendons…” 

“Aunt, it’s my fault.” 

Aria also called Christina aunt, and she told her, “Someone wanted to cause trouble for me, so Abigail got involved.” 

Christina asked Aria, “Who did you offend? This incident can be big or small, what if something like this happens again in the future?” 

“Aria, did you call the police?” 

Aria shook her head. 

She told Christina, “I was about to go to the police station to file a report.” 

And then… 

After exchanging a few words, Aria and Christina said, “Aunt, you stay at the hospital to take care of Abigail. I’ll go to the police station to report the incident first.” 

“Okay, you go quickly.” 

Aria left. 

Christina stayed behind to take care of Abigail. 

From the moment Christina entered, Abigail noticed that her face did not look good! 

“Aunt, have you not been resting well lately?” 

“Did Sharon scold you again?” 

Considering Sharon’s personality, she probably scolds her aunt every day. 

So, “Did she force you to take those random medications again, or did you have a fight with my uncle?“. 

Christina said, “No.” 

She told Abigail, “I heard that you were beaten, and I was extremely worried, which is why my face doesn’t look good either.” 

Abigail almost believed her. 

But then she noticed that Christina had injuries on her body! 

On the arm that Christina was trying to hide with her sleeve, there was a large bruise. 

Abigail saw it. 

She immediately grabbed Christina’s hand, lifted her shirt, and asked, “Aunt, how did you get injured on your arm?“. 

“Was it Sharon, or Charles?” 

Christina could only say, “It was Charles.” 

Abigail was furious! 

“How dare he?” 

*He promised to always treat you well, make you happy! He vowed to never let you suffer, to never abandon you! He even guaranteed that he would never harm you in any way!” 

Even though Charles has always been good to her aunt! But since her aunt married Charles, how much suffering has she endured because of Sharon? 

If Charles couldn’t keep his promise to not let her aunt suffer, that alone would be disappointing! But to actually physically harm her? 

Abigail immediately wanted to confront Charles. 

But Christina wouldn’t allow it. 

“You have a fractured leg right now, you can only stay in the hospital!” 

A JA 

“But…” 

Christina said, “There are no buts“.” 

She told Abigail, “Your aunt’s husband was drunk, and it was an accident. He apologized to me immediately and promised it wouldn’t happen again.” 

“And Abigail, you have to trust that your aunt can handle her own affairs,” 

Christina never expected Charles to actually hit her! 

When he threw things at her, she was stunned too! She was so angry that she packed up and wanted to leave the Parker… 

Furthermore, she told Charles that she wanted a divorce from him! Charles knelt down. 

He sobbed and held onto her legs, apologizing to her, “Christina, I’m so sorry. I couldn’t control myself because I was drunk.” “My mother constantly nags at me, saying that I’m useless and that I can’t even bear a child with a woman.” “I’m under a lot of pressure.” “I… “He slapped himself over and over again! 

He begged Christina, “Please, Christina, don’t leave, okay?” “I love you, I really do!: “Just forgive me this once, okay?” “I promise I won’t do it again! If I lay a hand on you again, I… I’ll chop off my own hand!” 

After being in a relationship for four years, from freshman to senior year! Then marrying this man immediately after graduation, their three–year marriage. A total of seven years together! Christina softened her heart. 

She decided to give Charles a chance. Because she believed that Charles hitting her this time was truly due to being under the influence of alcohol, and that it was a one–time occurrence that would never happen again! 

Three days later. 

Oliver returned from his business trip. He saw Abigail with her right leg in a cast, limping as she walked, and his face immediately darkened. 

“What happened?” Abigail said coldly, her black eyes looking at Oliver calmly, “Mr. Kensington, do you have any other business? If not, I’ll go upstairs first. 

After saying that, Abigail turned around and hobbled towards the staircase, grabbing onto the handrail, ready to climb up the stairs like that. 

Oliver… He walked over quickly and lifted Abigail horizontally! 

Oliver’s sudden movement made Abigail feel weightless and dizzy. “Mr. Kensington, what are you doing…?” 

Oliver responded naturally, “Carrying you upstairs!” 

Abigail refused Oliver’s gesture of carrying her and told him, “I can manage going upstairs by myself for such a trivial matter.” 

Oliver nodded, “Alright, you can.” “But…” His ink–black eyes looked at Abigail’s leg in a cast, “You tripped even when walking normally, so what’s the guarantee that you won’t fall down the stairs while limping?” “If that happens, not only will I have to take you to the hospital, but more importantly, it will delay taking care of the children!” 

Abigail… She felt annoyed, “I won’t fall!” Her leg wasn’t even injured from a fall, but… Oliver looked at her, “I don’t like trouble!”
