Reborn as Mr.CEO’s Fat Wife
Chapter 679: She lost weight, didn’t change her head. Is it really that surprising?

Chapter 679: Chapter 679: She lost weight, didn’t change her head. Is it really that surprising?

"Abby." Benjamin Jones spoke again, no longer asking.

Abigail instinctively denied, "I don’t..."

"I’ve already confirmed with Grandpa Smith." Benjamin interrupted Abigail. Despite his seemingly calm face, turbulence lay underneath.

Abigail immediately shook her head, "Impossible, Grandpa would never..."

Halfway through her sentence, Abigail realized she had been tricked, and her expression turned awkward, "You did it on purpose, didn’t you?"

"Not denying it anymore?" Benjamin wanted to laugh, but looking at the unfamiliar face of Abigail, he couldn’t. When Abigail Green approached him initially, he thought something was off.

But because Abby had just passed away, he didn’t think much of it. Later, he had to leave the country for a lawsuit and didn’t expect so much to happen while he was gone.

He returned the day before yesterday and heard from the front desk manager that a woman had been in his room. He almost didn’t recognize her when he saw the surveillance footage. After some investigation, he learned it was Abigail Green.

What shocked him wasn’t that Abigail had lost over a hundred pounds but how she knew his permanent residence at the Waldorf and his room password.

Even if she was Abby’s friend, Abby wouldn’t share such detailed information.

The doubts he had when leaving Gills City deepened, leading him to investigate Abigail Green.

Then he found out Grandpa Smith had accepted her as a disciple and she frequently stayed at Master Brandon’s Moon Lake Manor. He learned about her tangled relationship with Jeffrey Foster and the incident in Durin.

And her exceptionally outstanding medical skills.

Connecting all these things, Benjamin reached a ridiculous conclusion.

Hearing Abigail’s words now, Benjamin knew his absurd suspicion was true.

Seeing the complex expression on Benjamin’s usually stern and cold face, Abigail felt a pang of guilt, "Benjamin, it’s not that I didn’t want to tell you, but this matter is too absurd. You’re a staunch atheist, I feared you’d think I was crazy."

"So, you kept lying to me?" Benjamin’s voice sounded calm, but his suppressed feelings weren’t.

"I... There hasn’t been a suitable opportunity," Abigail scratched her head awkwardly. Since her rebirth, her life had been overturned. Except for the two meetings in Gills City because of Aunt Claudia, she hadn’t met Benjamin again.

At that time, she didn’t even fully understand her situation and didn’t dare tell anyone rashly.

Benjamin looked at Abigail. He understood her predicament, but also knew she didn’t tell him probably because he wasn’t the one she held dearest.

After Abigail finished speaking and saw Benjamin remaining silent, she felt a bit guilty, "Benjamin..."

"What time is your class?" Benjamin didn’t want to continue this topic. Talking more would only make him sad.

Abigail quickly checked the time, "Five minutes."

Brandon Piers had timed it perfectly to drop her at school.

"You go to class first. I’ll wait for you." Benjamin had many questions for Abigail, but this wasn’t the place. Many people were already passing by and looking their way.

"I could..."

Abigail wanted to say she didn’t necessarily have to attend class, but recalled what she had promised Brandon. After hesitating for a moment, she heard Benjamin shake his head, "Go ahead, I’ll wait in the cafeteria."

"Okay..."

Bzzz, bzzz, bzzz...

Abigail hadn’t finished saying "okay" when her phone started vibrating. Seeing Brandon’s number, she remembered she had sent him half of a photo. She had delayed sending the other half because she was talking to Benjamin. Knowing his obsessive-compulsive nature, she hurriedly waved at Benjamin while answering the call and walking toward the classroom.

Watching Abigail’s retreating figure, a trace of gloom appeared on Benjamin’s stern face. If he wasn’t mistaken, the number had been Brandon Piers’.

Benjamin knew a bit about this influential figure from Swallow City, but it had never crossed his mind that Abby would end up with such a man.

A beautiful yet excessively petty man.

The reason he chose to visit Abby at the medical college today was because he had been rejected twice at Moon Lake Manor.

He had always thought Abby would marry Jeffrey Foster.

He always believed Abby would never choose anyone but Jeffrey. Had he known she would someday choose someone else, he wouldn’t have stayed on the sidelines.

Regret filled him, but watching Abigail leave, he felt helpless.

Abigail, on the other hand, couldn’t feel Benjamin’s emotions. She was too busy listening to her man’s sulky complaints.

"Benjamin and I grew up together. He’s like my big brother, and he only sees me as a sister." Abigail explained again. If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have told this petty man; it would have saved her from all this jealousy.

"Benjamin?" Last time Abigail had directly given out Benjamin’s hotel room number and password, causing Brandon to get jealous. That’s why he had stopped Benjamin from seeing Abby several times. And now, this woman called him "brother," so familiarly? He didn’t buy this "brother-sister" relationship without any blood ties.

Moreover, they were childhood friends.

Brandon grew increasingly sour.

Abigail laughed, "Brandon, if you keep this up, I won’t send you the other half of the photo."

This time it was Brandon who got choked up, "Abigail, I allow you to acknowledge him, but that’s it."

"What else could we possibly do?" Abigail laughed.

"I’ll pick you up tonight." Brandon feared saying more would make him lose control and send Pullan back. He knew Abigail didn’t mind because she felt innocent, but as a man, he knew Benjamin’s feelings for her were far from brotherly.

And his research on Benjamin confirmed his suspicion.

"Okay." Abigail finally relaxed when she heard Brandon’s promise. She accidentally bumped into a green trash can at the staircase, letting out a slight "ouch" and gave it a puzzled look. The man on the other end immediately asked what happened.

"I accidentally hit the trash can," Abigail replied. Just as she was about to complain about its placement, the bell rang. She hurriedly told Brandon she had to hang up and rushed to her class.

After being away for months, Abigail almost forgot where her classroom was. Fortunately, upstairs she saw Wilson Jasper, who always lingered around, and quickly followed him. She greeted him with a smile and sat beside him.

Wilson, seeing the pretty girl who greeted him and then sat beside him with pink cheeks, mustered up courage, "Excuse me... but someone else sits here."

Although Abigail was gone, the seat was still hers.

No other girl, no matter how beautiful, could sit there.

As soon as Wilson spoke, other students also looked at Abigail. After their initial surprise, they shared Wilson’s sentiment—she couldn’t sit there.

Abigail scratched her head. She may have slimmed down, but hadn’t changed faces. Was that necessary?
