Chapter 662 The Stranger
Abigail helped pay the nanny''s fee and added the person as a friend on WhatsApp. Then, she took
out her phone to search for what a pregnant woman needed to prepare for a hospital stay.
"Doctor, how much longer will the pregnant woman in this operating room be?" Abigail didn''t dare to
leave quickly and grabbed a nurse to ask.
The nurse nced at the time and replied, "It''s uncertain. Do you need something?"
"I rushed here and didn''t have time to prepare what was needed. I don''t know if it''s toote to buy
them now," Abigail exined anxiously.
"There''s a supermarket next to the hospital. You can take a look. It will only take about ten minutes.
The pregnant woman shouldn''t be out within that timeframe." The nurse kindly informed Abigail.
Abigail nodded and quickly bought the items with her phone in hand in Adral, a very remote town.
As she entered the deserted supermarket, she found the section selling mother and baby products
and, in her haste, nearly collided with a few burly men.
"Sorry," Abigail hurriedly apologized and maneuvered around them.
The several ordinary-looking men looked at Abigail''s back warily, confirming that she was buying
things before turning their heads and walking forward.
"We saw him enter this supermarket... Why can''t we find him now?"
"We''re blocking the exits. I don''t believe that guy can hide inside forever."
"He''s injured too. If he doesn''te out, he''ll bleed to death."
The men whispered to each other in low voices. Even though they lowered their voices and spoke
with a strange ent, Abigail could still faintly hear them.
How can there be foreigners in this remote Adral? Although she had doubts, Luna''s situation was
still more critical. She bought what the pregnant woman and child needed. She was about to go to
the milk powder section when a gust of wind suddenly blew.
Before Abigail could react, someone covered her mouth and forcefully dragged her toward a corner.
It prompted her to let go of the shopping cart and struggle hard.
"Mmm!" She tried tomunicate with the person.
However, the person''s strength was terrifying. Their arm felt like iron, and Abigail was tightly held in
their embrace, feeling like her bones were about to be crushed. Dragged behind a crowded shelf,
Abigail had no strength left.
There was a cold weapon pressed against her waist, causing her to dare not move immediately,
and even her breathing became lighter.
"Will you scream if I let go of you?" A deep and hoarse male voice sounded in Abigail''s ear.
She was about to curse but shook her head gently. She used her hand to support herself on the
ground and soon felt a sticky liquid. It seemed to be blood.
"You are na, right?" The man released her mouth and asked, panting.
Abigail swallowed and couldn''t believe that he knew her. "Yes... Who are you?"
She dared not look at him. She wore a mask and seemed to smell a faint scent of blood.Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.
"No need to ask who I am. Now, please purchase a set of men''s clothing for me. I''ll be waiting for
you in the men''s restroom at the grocery store…" The man paused and continued, "If you dare to
make a sound, I will leave here and find you in Capitalis to settle the score."
Abigail had never felt so humiliated. "Wait here. After I buy those items, I''m leaving. I have urgent
matters to attend to as well."
She was still worried about Luna and didn''t want to get entangled with this person any longer.
Considering the overly cautious foreigners she encountered earlier, she guessed that this person
must have had a conflict with them. Perhaps he was being chased by enemies. Thinking about
those people waiting at the entrance, Abigail, while buying clothes in the men''s section, secretly
called the police on her phone.
"Excuse me, sir? I believe I have spotted a group of individuals acting suspiciously outside the Bags
Bunny supermarket. Judging from their ents, they appear to be foreigners, and I also noticed
that they are carrying firearms..." As she apologized, she nced down and caught sight of a
concealed weapon in the man''s waistband.
The police officer''s excitement grew upon hearing this. Isn''t this a golden opportunity?
"Is this the Bags Bunny supermarket located next to the county hospital?" the police officer inquired.
"Yes, those individuals are dressed casually but are all over six feet tall," Abigail exined as she
continued to speak with the police while selecting clothes. It would be best to apprehend the man
with the weapon inside the supermarket as well!
Abigail ended the call and carried the clothes to the men''s restroom. With only a few people in the
supermarket and her still wearing a mask, she went unnoticed. Even if the cleaningdy was
startled, she could only mutter to herself.
"Clothes," Abigail called out as soon as she entered. The man inside knocked three times on the
door of the innermost cubicle, and she approached with the clothes. He opened the door to receive
the items.
"Can I go now?" Abigail asked him.
"No. I will need your assistanceter in pretending to be a woman and helping me escape," the man
inside the room threatened, a hint of amusement in his voice.
Abigail took a deep breath and silently prayed. I hope the police officer arrives quickly to apprehend
this suspicious man.
"Come on! I have a friend in the nearby hospital who needs my care!" She grew impatient after
waiting for two minutes.
The man grunted in response. A momentter, the door swung open, revealing a man dressed
casually walking out. He was approximately the same height as Sean, with a narrow face, single
eyelids, and sharp features that emanated from his entire countenance.
