234 The helpless remorse

Sebastian was not at all happy with Abigail crying so much. His heart was aching, yet his pain manifested itself as rage.

"Stop crying," he hissed. "You have been crying every day for two weeks. I told you not to think about Christopher anymore. He is not coming here for you. He was never yours, and he will never be yours. The sooner you accept it, the better."

"How cruel you are!" Abigail scowled. "How can you ask me to forget about my husband?"

"Because I know he is not the right man for you. He didn't marry you out of love. He kept you by his side for selfish reasons. You will soon see his true self."

Abigail's anger was rising. She would never believe what he had said.

"You will get everything here… the luxury life that you have only imagined, the power, the authority… You will carry my legacy. Everything I own is now yours. You can obtain whatever you want. All you have to do is forget about Christopher and start over anew."
