Abigail froze for a while and then slowly turned around when she heard the familiar and cold voice.It was Liam who was walking towards them.

Each of his steps punched her heart.

She had no idea if he had heard what they talked about. At that moment, her palms were sweating.If Liam knew, she would definitely die...

He looked at them with deep-set eyes. "What are you talking about?"

Abigail was so agitated, but she still pretended that nothing had happened and smiled, "Nothing. Ihappened to meet this lady when I came down to buy something to eat, and she asked me wherethe toilet was.” Abigail told a lie calmly.

Liam frowned slightly and looked at her. He questioned her again. "Really?"

Abigail nodded affirmatively with a smile on her face. At this moment, she didn't feel sleepy at all,but nervous. She was trying hard to feign calmness.

Then, Liam looked at Grace. "Grace, don't you know where the toilet is?" He asked casually. It wasn'tthe first time for her to come here, so how could she not know it?

Grace stood there in a panic. After all, she was worried about keeping that secret from Liam, butsince she had promised Abigail, she couldn't tell him.

At last, Grace just smiled awkwardly. "It's been a long time since I came here. So I don't rememberit."

Hearing this, Liam just nodded and glanced at them.

The two women couldn't tell from his expression if he believed them or not.

"You know each other?" Liam's eyes were fixed on Abigail's arm which was holding Grace's.

'I have to admit that he is too observant. He can even see such a slightest movement.’ Abigailwithdrew her arm calmly. "I was helping her just now. I'm leaving now. Bye."

She smiled, then politely nodded to Grace and turned to go to the elevator.

After Abigail left, Grace looked at Liam. "Mr. Jones, my task is done. I'll go back now."

Liam nodded. "The driver is waiting for you at the gate.”

"Okay, thanks!" Grace left.

Liam watched Grace's back and then turned to gaze at Abigail's thoughtfully.

When Abigail walked into the elevator, she let out a sigh of relief.

Working at the Powerline Group meant she had to see Liam at any time. She had been worried thathe would know the truth at any time, which made her so nervous

It looked like Liam didn't hear what they said.

Otherwise, he wouldn't let them go.

Thanks to the accident, she was not sleepy at all.

When the elevator opened, Abigail walked straight out.

She didn't have to use what she just bought, so she went straight to the pantry to make a cup ofcoffee to clear her head and calm herself down.

After having a cup of coffee in the pantry, Abigail made another cup and walked out with it. As soonas she walked out, she met Liam.
