Chapter 182 A Nightmare
The thin woman sitting on the bed was none other than Abby, who had gone missing for more than two months.
In the dim light, a glint of jealousy and contempt flashed in the other woman’s eyes before she concealed her expression and blamed herself. “Abby, the chef has already left. How about I share my meal with you? I’m sorry for this. It’s all my fault. I didn’t expect you would miss it.” “It’s alright. I’m not hungry anyway,” Abby said in a low voice as she shrugged her shoulders, looking down at the food scattered on the floor.
“But if the guards find out that I spilled your food and made you starve, they will surely punish me. You can eat mine. Go ahead. I know you haven’t eaten much for several days.” “It’s okay. I’m not that hungry.” Abby shook her head. “Sasha, just eat your food. Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone.” Sasha raised her head and grabbed Abby’s hand tightly. “Are you sure you won’t tell anyone? Promise me.” When she held Abby’s hand, Sasha’s long nails accidentally scratched the back of her palm.
Slightly wincing in pain, Abby tried to pull away instinctively, but Sasha gripped her so tightly that she couldn’t break free. You have my word.” “Very good! Thank you, Abby! You’re such a kind girl.” Sasha finally let go of Abby and caught a glimpse of the red mark on the back of the latter’s hand. Quickly covering her small wound, Abby waved it off and said, “It’s nothing. Go eat.” Sasha promptly returned to her bed, fiddled with the scallion in her bowl, and asked, “Abby, the visiting day will be in two days.
Will your family come to see you then?” It was not just the chef who was curious about who Abby really was. Sasha also wanted to know about her mysterious cellmate’s past. However, Abby never told her anything. Whenever Sasha tried to get something out of her, Abby always kept silent about her background and would later steer the conversation into another topic. Ever since the day they met, Sasha felt a twinge of jealousy towards her.
Abby had always exuded an air of innocence and kindness about her. But still, everyone in this facility did something bad at one point. She was also in jail, so she must have committed a crime. However, the guards had always been nice to Abby, so one had to wonder what her life was like outside these walls. At first, Sasha thought that Abby came from a prominent family. That could be the reason why all the guards treated her differently
But more than a couple of months had passed, and there were two chances for family members to visit the prisoners, but no one came for her. Besides, judging from her choice of words and mannerisms, Abby didn’t act like a well educated and elegant lady at all. “I don’t know.” Keeping to her thoughts, Abby narrowed her eyes and tightened her grip on the blanket. She wondered how Rachel was doing right now. It had been a long time since they had last seen each other.
