Chapter 860  The Last Mission: Her Plan

At Abigail\'s Apartment

Ding! Dong!

The sound of the doorbell resounded in the hallway. It did not take long before a woman in her plain shirt and shorts opened the door.

"Yes? How may I help you?" Abigail asked, darting her gaze back and forth between a pretty woman and a charming boy.

"Aunt Abigail!" Ethan called upon her name enthusiastically.

Abigail could only watch him in puzzlement. "Hello, kiddo. Do I know you?"

Ethan bobbed his head frantically. "Yes. I\'m your nephew!"

Abigail didn\'t know whether to laugh or not. So she decided to ask the woman next to the little boy.

"And who are you, Miss?" Smiling tenderly at her sister, Jane suddenly pulled Abigail into a warm hug.

"Abi, it\'s me, Jane. Your elder sister."

Abigail froze for a moment when she heard that. She was an orphan so she didn\'t know if she had a sister. She couldn\'t believe that this beautiful guest was claiming she was her elder sister.

"Did you mistake me for someone?" Abigail asked, smiling awkwardly.

Jane broke the hug and held her shoulders.

"No, Sis. I\'m not mistaken. I\'m here to tell you that I\'m your sister. I\'m so sorry. It took me a while before I found you. Please forgive this sister of yours. I have so many shortcomings. I failed to protect you in the past. But now, I\'ve returned."

Abigail was at a loss for words. For some unknown reason, she felt a connection with this woman.

\'Is she really my sister?\' she mused to herself, gazing at Jane intently. There was a hint of longing in her eyes. Reuniting with her family someday was her dream. "Honestly, I don\'t know what to say right now. Please come in. Let\'s talk inside." Abigail invited them inside the house.

Stephen and Nathan chose to stay in the car to give privacy for the sisters to talk. Only Ethan tagged along with Jane.

Upon entering the apartment, Ethan and Jane smelled the delicious aroma coming from the kitchen. It turned out Dave was also there, cooking lunch for Abigail.

"Love, who is your visitor?" Dave\'s voice sounded from the kitchen. He knew that Abigail went to open the door and greet her unexpected guest.

Dave was still wearing a pink apron and holding a ladle in his right arm. He took a peek to check the visitors. And he was surprised to see new faces. This was the first time he met Jane and Ethan.

Meanwhile, Jane smiled at Dave. She was so happy to see him taking good care of her sister. He was such a sweet and caring boyfriend.

"Hello, Dave, I\'m Jane, Abigail\'s elder sister. The boy next to me is my son, Ethan." Jane introduced herself and Ethan to Dave.

Both Abigail and Dave were surprised because Jane looked very familiar with them. She even knew Dave\'s name even though this was the first time she met him.

"Really? You are Abigail\'s biological sister?!" Dave blinked in amusement. "And you even know me?"

Jane nodded while letting out a soft chuckle. "Yes, Of course. I know your relationship with my sister. I found out after I hired an investigator to find my long-lost sister." She decided to make up a story to make her alibi believable. She couldn\'t tell them she came from the future, that\'s why she knew Abigail and Dave.

Dave and Abigail exchanged glances with one another. They didn\'t suspect Jane at all. Besides, she looked very friendly. There was no way she would be lying about her relationship with Abigail.

And looking at her, Dave could somehow see her resemblance to Abigail.

"Oh, nice meeting you, Miss Jane." Dave immediately put down the ladle and wiped his palm using the apron just to offer a handshake to Jane.

Dave was very polite. Deep inside, he was a little bit nervous. He wasn\'t prepared to meet his girlfriend\'s sister today.

\'Damn, calm down, Dave. Just be cool.\' He reminded himself.

Noticing Dave\'s anxiousness, Jane gripped his hand tightly and said, "Relax. I\'m not going to eat you. You can call me sister-in-law. I\'m giving you my blessing."

Dave was dumbfounded when he heard that. Despite his shock, he felt so happy since Abigail\'s sister approved of him.

"Thank you, Sister-in-law!" Dave smiled shyly, scratching his face.

Abigail and Ethan watched their interaction with a smile.

After exchanging short conversations, Dave returned to the kitchen to finish what he was cooking. Ethan followed him while Jane and Abigail settled down in the living room.

"Sis, I still couldn\'t believe this. I am finally reunited with you." Abigail\'s joy was evident in her eyes.

Jane gently patted her head. "Don\'t worry. I\'m not leaving your side anymore. I will always be here for you, starting today. We will not get separated again. And if you want proof, we can do a DNA test so that you won\'t doubt my identity."

Abigail shook her head. "There is no need. I can feel your sincerity. And I know you are a good person. I believe your words. And I know I can trust you."

Abigail took her hands, squeezing them gently. She couldn\'t explain it but she felt comfortable in Jane\'s presence.

"How about our parents? Where are they? Our mother and our father? And do you know the reason why I got separated from the family? Do they hate me?" Abigail bombarded her with so many questions. She was curious as to why she was left in an orphanage.

Jane reached up, caressing Abigail\'s cheeks. "No. They don\'t hate you. Our father had been looking for us for so many years. Both of us got separated from our parents. And that same day, our mother died."

Abigail gasped when she heard that story. All this time she thought she was an unwanted child, abandoned by her parents. Now, everything was clear to her. Their parents didn\'t intentionally abandon them, but the bad circumstances caused their separation from their parents.

"I feel relieved now. Thank you for clearing this up for me, Sis. But I\'m sad because I won\'t be able to see our mother. I\'ve never seen her face." Abigail\'s eyes teared up at that thought.

Jane tried her best to comfort her. "Don\'t be sad, Sis. I\'m here. And we are going to meet our father soon. I\'ll find a way to reunite with him. So just wait for it. Okay?"

Abigail nodded with a smile, wiping away her tears. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The sisters were still having a heart-to-heart talk when Dave and Ethan returned to the living room to join them.

"You can have your lunch here. Please join us." Dave invited Jane and Ethan. He cooked enough food for the four of them.

They were about to go to the dining area when Dave suddenly received a call.

"Hello, Vincent?"

Jane\'s expression shifted the moment she heard Vincent\'s name, a cold glint flashing through her eyes. She suddenly got curious as to why Vincent contacted Dave. She waited for Dave to finish his conversation before asking him about Vincent. She wondered if Vincent was planning something.

A few minutes later, Dave stepped into the dining area where Jane, Abigail, and Ethan were waiting for them.

"Dave, who called you? Is that your friend? What did he want from you?" Jane didn\'t waste her time as she asked him directly.

"Oh. It\'s my good friend, Vincent. He is like a brother to me. I\'ll introduce you to him. He is coming here. He just told me that he and his girlfriend will be flying here tomorrow. They have been residing in Country R. And they are planning to have a long vacation here."

Jane smiled inwardly, her eyes filled with determination. \'Nice timing. I don\'t need to look for them. They are returning here. And I will make sure to get my revenge against them, most especially… to Monica.\' \'This time I\'m going to protect my loved ones. They won\'t be able to touch them as long as I\'m here.\' Jane swore to herself. She was already planning in her mind about her preparations for her upcoming encounter with Monica. \'I\'ll fight them to death! And I\'m going to win.\'

"Dave. Let me know the exact time of their arrival tomorrow. I want to meet them personally. If you are going to fetch them from the airport, let me come with you!" Jane looked at him meaningfully.

Dave just nodded in agreement. "Sure, Sister-in-law."

"Sis, you are going to like them. They are good people." Abigail said, clueless about their real nature.

Jane almost vomited blood upon hearing that compliment coming from Abigail. \'Sigh. Good thing I arrived in time to meet my sister. Otherwise, she\'d fall for Monica\'s fake kindness again. Sis, if you only knew… those people are out to harm you. They\'re not good—they\'re the epitome of evil.\'

Jane just forced a smile. She couldn\'t tell them yet that Monica and Vincent were bad people. They might not believe her for now. All she could do was protect them in the shadows, making sure that Monica and Vincent wouldn\'t take advantage of Dave and Abigail.
