[ At Yan Family Mansion… ]
"Why are we all gathered here again?" Amara complained to Nadia. "Is this about that actress again?" Her face contorted at the thought of Abigail.
Nadia could only sigh deeply. She didn't know how she would interact with Abigail. The awkwardness was still there. However, she admitted that Abigail had nothing to do with her breakup. It was her fault so she didn't have to blame Abigail or be indifferent toward her.
'If she is my real cousin, then I have to get along with her. Put the past behind us. I have to apologize to her,' Nadia thought to herself as they entered the mansion.
The other members of the Yan Family had already arrived. Madam Lu and her husband were having a discussion with the other members. They were trying to convince the other members to change Old Master Yan's decision.
If Abigail was proven to be Alyssa's missing daughter, they wanted to question her qualification and credibility to manage the Yan Group. They had to show resistance to Old Master Yan's unfair decision.
As everyone was getting ready for dinner, Little Ethan accompanied Old Master Yan inside his room. He kept the old man entertained. Abigail, on the other hand, made sure that the important guests tonight should be present. Without them, this show wouldn't be enjoyable.
Nathan was also on his way to the Yan Family Mansion. He apologized for not being able to fetch Abigail at Star Corp Entertainment. But he promised to give her a surprise later on to compensate her.
Meanwhile, Madam Priyanshi was in the dining hall, checking the preparation of this dinner banquet. The Yan Family Doctor was also invited to attend this gathering. The doctor would be announcing the result of the DNA test.
Abigail only left her room when she was done gathering the evidence. She also requested the Yan Family security team to be alert tonight since she didn't want someone to escape. One of her targets was the private nurse who connived with Madam Lu. She would make sure the nurse would lose her license and be imprisoned after this.
Some members of the Yan Family were displeased when they saw Abigail walking around the house leisurely. They thought she easily adapted to this house as if this was her own house for a very long time. But since Abigail had Old Master Yan's support, they couldn't bully her.
Clap! Clap!
Madam Priyanshi gathered everyone's attention by clapping her hands. "Dinner is ready. Let's eat!" She informed them to proceed to the dining hall.
Old Master Yan was being pushed by Little Ethan together with his private nurse. The members of the Yan Family were surprised to see that little boy once more.
"What is he doing here?"
"Nathan's son is here again. Why?"
They murmured at each other. But Abigail and Ethan just ignored them. Madam Lu watched Abigail and Ethan with hatred in her eyes. She felt bitter toward these two. She thought Abigail was using the little kid to be closer to Old Master Yan.
"What a Scheme?! I have to commend her," Madam Lu whispered to her husband.
"Relax, honey. Don't be too obvious. Your brother is very sensitive. He will get mad at you." Madam Lu's husband reminded her to be calm and composed. This was not a good time to show her displeasure and annoyance toward Abigail.
Madam Lu just tried her best to conceal her emotions. It did not take long before everyone settled down in their respective seats.
Ethan sat next to Abigail and leaned over as he whispered, "Mom, where is Dad? Is he not joining us tonight?"
"Don't worry, Ethan… Your Dad is on his way now. He is just going to be late. He won't miss the fun… I assure you," Abigail said meaningfully, stroking Ethan's hair.
Ethan smiled and bobbed his head. Even he, himself, was looking forward to witnessing the great show.
The entire dinner was silent. No one dared to speak up. They let everyone finish first before making an announcement. When they got their fill, Madam Priyanshi did the honor to give the floor to their family doctor.
"Everyone here is dying to know the result of the DNA test. Do you have it now, Doc?"
The doctor stood up from his seat and faced the family members. "I haven't read the result yet. I just got it straight from the hospital. I decided to read the result together with all of you." The doctor tossed a meaningful look at Old Master Yan. He knew that the old man would be happy to know the result. He hoped he would satisfy the old man with the result.
The Yan family Doctor began to open the envelope containing the result. All eyes were on him. His lips curled up into a satisfied smile when he saw the results.
"Miss Abigail Scarlett… is indeed your missing granddaughter. The DNA matched!" The doctor declared, looking at Old Master Yan.
Madam Priyanshi rejoiced when she heard that while Old Master Yan heaved a sigh of relief. At least, the other members of the Yan family would no longer doubt Abigail's identity. Madam Priyanshi stood up from her seat and approached Abigail. She hugged her.
"My niece, do you have something to tell us? It's now the time…" Madam Priyanshi allowed Abigail to do her announcement.
But her announcement was not something they had to celebrate. It would bring chaos to the Yan Family.
Abigail's eyes scanned everyone present in the dining hall. The room was silent because they were waiting for her to speak up. To their surprise, Abigail approached the private nurse who was standing near the entrance door.
"Come here," Abigail said, dragging the private nurse in front of the Yan Family. The private nurse was annoyed because of the forceful pulling of her hand.
"Why?" She scowled at Abigail for being rude.
Abigail answered her with a loud slap.
PAK!
Everyone: "..."
They were caught off guard by Abigail's violent action. Who would have thought she would suddenly slap the private nurse in front of everyone? Was she crazy? How rude?!
"OMG, she is showing her true colors now!" Amara broke the silence, ridiculing Abigail's action. "How could you do that to your grandpa's nurse?! She is the one taking care of him!"
The private nurse rubbed her cheek as she glared at Abigail. She wanted to fight back but she couldn't. She had to act like a vulnerable woman… victim of this violence. The private nurse and Madam Lu exchanged glances with one another, giving each other a signal.
"Abi! Why did you do that?" Madam Priyanshi stepped into the middle of the two ladies, trying to protect the nurse from Abigail.
Old Master Yan was also confused about why Abigail did that.
"Slapping her is not enough for the crime she did to our family… to my grandpa." Abigail started.
Madam Lu's eyes twitch when she heard that. She had a nagging feeling about this. "Did she find out anything?" Madam Lu glanced at the nurse, asking her. But the nurse just shook her head.
"What are you talking about?" Old Master Yan's cousin also spoke up.
"This nurse is the reason why my grandpa's condition is worsening. She is giving him the wrong medicine."
"Huh?"
"Are you crazy? Why are you making up some lies? What did I do to you to ruin my name like this?" The nurse denied her accusation.
"I have proof!"
