Abigail entered the room, ignoring her mother. "Hi, Father. What state are you in? She grinned. Her mom followed her inside, and her dad ignored her. Will you fire Abigail over the job? She couldn't live in the basement indefinitely, he said, giving Abigail a feeble smile. "Hey, little one," he murmured. I'm alright. Truly. Only a little alarmed. However, they won't let me keep my phone or laptop. He looked dis

managers would never be so giving." B*tch. She believes that we are already having sexual relations. Could you assist me with arranging the flowers in the room? She asked haltingly. Of course, he appeared relieved to be able to get away from her mother and sister. Abigail nearly had to force the flowers from Rachel's hand in order to take them. Daniel trailed behind her as she entered the room. Abigail continued to look at her dad. As they entered, he looked up, glancing first at Daniel and then back at his daughter, his eyes narrowing as he glanced over their shoulder. "Mr." Davis sighed and caught his breath. "It was very kind of you to let my daughter have a job, especially when the package deal of her family must be very tiresome." "I believe letting her go is in your best interest. She's just not built for hard work and long hours. You'll cause her heartbreak. Tears were threatening to spill over Abigail's cheeks. Her boss was being told to fire her by her father, who had been the only person to show even a hint of happiness for her new job because he believed she had a crush on him. She could almost understand Matt's desire to return to work rather than visit his future father-in-law in the hospital-it had to be the most humiliating day of her life. Daniel turned to face her dad. Though his eyes were cold, he had a friendly smile. "Mr. Copper, thank you for your input, but I'll do what's best for my business." It is, after all, my business. You should be aware of your daughter's value as an asset. It is not shameful to be so proud of her. Her father attempted to sit up, but his cheeks burned red. Abigail stepped forward as his heart monitor sharply rose, saying, "Dad, don't." Daniel sighed, his expression unreadable. "Abigail, I need to go back to work. Bye-bye. He turned on his heel and walked away, nodding to Rachel, Mrs. Copper, and Abigail. Abigail looked at her loved ones, defeated. They were really, truly horrible people. All of them. Unable to stay in the room and face her family's wrath and accusations, Abigail ran out the door. She hesitated in the hallway, not sure which way to go. Daniel stood by the door and reached for her arm. "This way," he said. "To the elevators." "Please don't touch me," Abigail whispered, pulling her arm away as if it was on fire. She walked ahead of him and pressed the down button for the elevator doors. As soon as it opened, she went in, but Daniel was too quick for the doors to close. He sidled in after her and pressed the emergency stop button on the elevator when the doors were closed. "What the heck are you doing?" Abigail was on the verge of tears. She couldn't hold them in much longer. "You need to cry," Daniel said. "No one's watching right now. It's just us. Let it out." "Are you insane? We're going to get in trouble!" "I'll make a substantial donation to the hospital." He waved his hand as if he held a wand and could pull some magic out of it. "Give them a new wing, new equipment, whatever. You're upset." He stepped closer to her. "Breathe, Abigail. Breathe." She opened her mouth to shout at him, but the words didn't come out. Instead, she covered her face with her hands and sobbed. Stress, anger, humiliation, sadness, and a million other emotions escaped and poured out of her. She felt Daniel take her into his strong arms and rub her back. "It's okay," he whispered. "Just cry, Abigail. Just cry." Embarrassed, she cried harder and buried her face in his jacket. His heat emanated off of him and comforted her. She pulled away from him and turned away. "They're right, you know," she said quietly as she dug her purse for a Kleenex. "I'm so stupid." He handed her a handkerchief from his suit jacket. "You are not stupid." She took it and blew her nose, not caring anymore that her face was probably a red, blotchy mess. "You should fire me." "Abigail ." He gently grabbed her arms by the elbows and made her face him. "I'm not going to fire you." "My family alone is more trouble than I'm worth. You now know I find you attractive. Your employees
