Abigail’s Second Life - Season 4 Episode 16

After exchanging pleasantries, Anthony and Abigail hung up the phone, each holding their thoughts.

She placed her phone on the table and stared at her computer screen, lost in her thoughts for a while

before finally regaining her focus. However, her peace was short-lived as her phone buzzed. with a

new message.

‘Don’t contact Anthony again, you two-faced b*tch!”

She read the message and scoffed, promptly deleting it. However, within moments, another text

arrived, this time from Lacey.

‘Do you think I’m scared of you just because you have Sean backing you up? If you piss me off and

cause problems with Anthony’s business, he’ll cut off all ties with you.’

Abigail read the message, pondering her response for a while.

‘Do you lack self-confidence to the point that you need to target me?’

The tone in Lacey’s messages seemed completely incongruent with her appearance and demeanor.

Still, Abigail found the contrast quite striking.

‘Are you trying to belittle me just to make yourself look good? Don’t be so cocky, b*tch! For whom are

you pretending to be gracious? No matter how graceful you are, Anthony won’t choose to be with you.

‘I have no interest in Anthony. To me, the man you’re protecting is just an ordinary person. Besides,

you’re rather useless. All you do is hurl insults at me instead of discussing your insecurities with him. Is

it because you’re too much of a coward?’

After typing her reply, Abigail felt resigned to wasting her time dealing with Lacey.

‘I don’t talk to him because I know what kind of person he is. I’m talking to you because there’s always

a chance you’d keep being the b*tch you are.

‘If you feel so insecure, Lacey, just tell Anthony to block me on every platform. Don’t come up and

throw a fit at me. Is that clear?’

She finished her message and blocked Lacey’s number. To her surprise, Lacey switched to at different

number to continue harassing her. Abigail continued to block each new number, and it took four

blocked numbers before Lacey finally stopped.

By this point, it was already noon, and the harassment had completely soured Abigail’s mood. She

hadn’t been able to complete a single design all morning. Anyone subjected to such baseless

accusations would feel equally upset. Just when things had settled down with the Pearsons, Lacey

had emerged as a new source of trouble.

During lunch, Abigail contemplated the idea of having a heart-to-heart conversation with Lacey to

resolve their misunderstandings. However, Abigail quickly dismissed the notion, thinking, First, I have

to find out why Lacey hates me so much. After considering the way Lacey looked and behaved at the

bar, Abigail couldn’t believe she was the one who sent those

messages.

After lunch, Abigail went back to her office and called Luna to help her investigate Lacey.

“What did she do to you now?” Luna inquired immediately.

“I believe there’s a misunderstanding between us, and I want to get to the bottom of it,” Abigail replied.

“Sure, but I need to know the nature of the misunderstanding.” Luna understood Abigail’s character.

She wouldn’t have taken such a step without good reason.

After a brief pause, Abigail admitted, “I’ll forward you the messages, but promise me you won’t get

angry.”

“Fine,” Luna agreed.

Abigail sent Lacey’s messages to Luna.

Abigail sent the messages to Luna, who, after reading them, was fuming with anger. “Just who is this

woman?! She doesn’t seem like the type to say such things. Who would’ve thought she’d do this?! You

really can’t judge a book by its cover, huh? Well, I learned that lesson today!”

“I find her appearance and these messages completely contradictory,” Abigail remarked.

“Maybe we should skip the investigation and have an open conversation. If that doesn’t work, we’ll just

block Lacey. Investigating her would be a waste of time,” Luna concluded, now eager to call Anthony

and get to the bottom of things.

Abigail fell silent for a moment and then asked, “Will that work?” She was eager to understand why

Lacey had developed such a strong aversion to her.

“Do you trust me?” Luna asked abruptly.

“Of course, why wouldn’t I?” Abigail replied.

I’ll arrange a meeting between the two of them,” Luna said, ending the call.

it was almost time to get off work when Abigail received a call from Luna.

“I couldn’t arrange it. Anthony claimed he’s out of town, and Lacey mentioned she has a busy werk with

classes, so she can’t meet up, Luna said through gritted teeth.

“Let’s set it aside for now. September is approaching, and we need to prepare for the collaboration with

Freshie TV,” Abigail said.

“Okay.” Luna replied.

After ending the call, Abigail let out a sigh, wondering, What’s with modern couples these days? Why

are they causing trouble for others when they’re the ones in a relationship?

When Abigail returned home, she pitched in with Analise to prepare dinner. Her grandmother had set

up a workspace in the living room to handle the ingredients.

While they were at it, Abigail’s phone continued to ring incessantly. Observing her granddaughter’s

distraction, Analise temporarily set aside the dough she was working on and fetched Abigail’s phone

from her bag. As she was about to bring the phone into the kitchen, she couldn’t help but notice the

barrage of text messages coming in.

Are you too afraid to answer my calls, you two-faced b*tch?”

Are you getting your friend to set me up so you can beat me up?”

With the phone in hand, Analise retreated to the bathroom to answer the call that had been persistently

ringing.

“Why did

you take so long to answer? Are you scared? Blocking numbers won’t stop me. I have plenty of friends.

Even if you block me, I’ll find ways to reach

you!”

“Who are you to say such things? Didn’t your parents teach you how to respect other people? You’re

an adult. Stop playing these games. Aren’t you just being an embarrassment to your family?”
