Unveiling the Truth: My Boyfriend Is a Billionaire

"Abigail, I just picked up a few more orders, so I'm a bit busy."

My hand gripped the hem of my pants tightly, and I was momentarily dazed.

I couldn't believe these words.

"Can I take you downstairs and help you call a cab?"

I had to register and get checked at the hospital, and my leg hadn't fully healed, but he didn't seem to worry about that.

I didn't know how the words came out of my throat; I could only say "okay."

After Owen put me in a cab, I couldn't hold back anymore. Pretending to look at my phone, tears welled up in my eyes.

I didn't dare make a sound, afraid the driver would notice.

I didn't know how long I sobbed before I asked the driver to turn and take me to my workplace.

I worked at a jewelry store during the day, earning a decent salary.

As soon as I walked in, I saw someone picking out a necklace at the counter.

From the side, I could tell it was Mia.

As soon as I walked in, Mia's gaze almost stuck to me, making me uncomfortable.

"I want her to help me."

Mia pointed at me, asking me to serve her. I wanted to refuse.

But someone pulled me over.

"I want to try on these earrings. Please help me put them on."

I looked at the earrings on the counter, still feeling resistant.

"Miss Baker, how about I help you instead?"

Eleanor suggested, knowing the commission on such high-end items was substantial.

"I want her. If she doesn't come over, you both can leave!"

Eleanor was panic-stricken, grabbing my arm with tears almost falling.

"Miss Baker is our boss's friend, Abigail. Please help me out!"

I had no choice but to step forward, my scalp tingling, and put on gloves.

"Sorry, Miss Baker, I will assist you."

Mia smiled and continued talking with her friend.

I approached her and aimed the earring post at her earlobe, ready to put it on.

Unexpectedly, she pushed me away.

"Have you been trained at all? It hurts so much! Do they let anyone work here now?"

My waist hit the edge of the counter, and with my leg still not fully healed, I lost my balance and fell to the ground.

Cold sweat broke out on my back. My calf hurt badly. I tried to prop myself up, but I had no strength at all.

Mia's friend slapped me, making my head spin.

Someone lifted my chin, and I looked dazedly at the person in front of me.

"So, this is the woman Owen chose? When did his taste get so bad?"

The woman's nails dug into my chin, causing sharp pain.

I pushed her away. Eleanor tried to help me up, but the manager stopped her.

"How dare you? Miss Baker is Mr. Scott's fiancée. If you offend her, how will you keep your job?"
