Chapter 41 She’s My Wife
BabyAbby: [Stop talking nonsense. She’s my wife!]
[Hahaha. BabyAbby is jealous.]
[We all love her and want to marry her, but since you’ve put in so much effort in this battle, we’ll let you have your moment.]
Marcus frowned and began typing again.

BabyAbby: [Abby is really my wife. If you keep this up, you’ll be getting a demand letter!]
[A demand letter? BabyAbby is too cute!]
[Stop it. Don’t compete with the top gifter for Abby’s affection.]
Clearly, Abigail’s fans weren’t taking Marcus seriously at all.
Even Abigail, upon seeing the comments, just laughed it off.
She figured her husband was just working late in the study and wouldn’t waste millions on gifts all at once.
Seeing they didn’t believe him, Marcus felt helpless. The demand letter was just a joke.
Frustrated, he started sending gifts again, trying to drown out the comments.

In the end, Abigail crushed Caroline.
2/7
Watching Abby’s popularity soar above hers again, Caroline was furious.
She turned to Natalia with feigned innocence and said, “Natalia, why don’t we just let it go? Her top gifter is just too rich. We can’t compete with that.”
Her voice trembled, and Natalia’s heart broke at the sight of her daughter’s pitiful expression.
This was her child, and she wouldn’t allow her to feel so defeated.
It was just a small live match. The Winchester family had supported her for years. Natalia didn’t want Caroline to lose.
Determined, Natalia decided to keep topping up to send gifts to Caroline.
However, when she entered her password, a message popped up: “Insufficient balance.”
Natalia felt extremely embarrassed.
She had never been short on cash, thanks to Abigail’s consistent financial support.
This reliance had made her extravagant, leading her to have only two million left in her private savings.

But it was all gone in an instant.
3/7
She had always looked down on those who spent lavishly on live–streaming, but now she was shocked at how quickly money could disappear, even faster than her luxury shopping.
“Caroline, I’m so sorry. I…” Natalia began, about to admit she was broke.
But before she could finish, Caroline interrupted, feigning thoughtfulness, “Forget it, Natalia. I’ve been ridiculed and looked down upon many times; I’m used to it. Let’s just stop!”
Upon hearing this, Natalia felt even more heartbroken. “No, Caroline, we can’t just give up! I’m going to help you win!” she insisted.
She might not have money, but Abigail did. She was confident that if she asked, Abigail would lend a hand.
Without hesitation, Natalia grabbed her phone to call Abigail.
Just then, Abigail was thinking about Natalia gifting to Caroline when her phone rang.
At the sight of the caller ID, she paused.
Since moving out of the Winchester Villa, Natalia hadn’t contacted her once, seemingly indifferent to her well–being.
Now, seeing her call, Abigail was delighted and quickly

answered the call. “Hello, Mom…”
“Abigail, quickly transfer some money to me!” Natalia demanded.
The commanding tone made Abigail’s smile fade instantly.
4/7
Natalia had just blown a fortune on gifts for Caroline, and now she was asking for more. It was obvious for whom the money was intended.
Despite that, a flicker of hope remained in Abigail. “Mom, why do you suddenly need money?” she asked tentatively.
“Well…” Natalia hesitated.
She knew Abigail hated Caroline now. If she told the truth, Abigail would definitely refuse.
After a moment’s pause, Natalia couldn’t come up with a good excuse and snapped, “None of your business! Just send me the money!”
Abigail couldn’t help but laugh at herself, realizing she shouldn’t have harbored fantasies about Natalia caring for her.
Hearing Abigail’s sneer, Natalia frowned impatiently and urged, “Abigail, hurry up! It’s urgent.”
Caught up in the urgency, both Natalia and Caroline didn’t realize that Abigail had temporarily left the live–streaming channel.

Abigail set aside her expectations of Natalia and replied bluntly, “I don’t have money.”
“How can you not have money?” Natalia’s tone became sharp. “You’re a senior executive at the Winchester Group. You earn millions a year!
“Plus, there are dividends and bonuses! You live at home, so where does all your money go?”
Natalia thought, “Is she deliberately refusing to give me money? How ungrateful!”
“Haven’t I already spent years of savings on you?” Abigail replied, hurt. “Where do you think the money for your beauty treatments, coffee, poker games, parties, clothes, and luxury items comes from each month?
“You want to maintain your image as Mrs. Winchester without being seen as a spendthrift, so I have to bridge those gaps for
you.
“In these years, apart from my salary, I have not taken a penny from the company. I’ve given it all to you. What more do you want?”
Natalia was completely shocked by Abigail’s cold tone.
This was the first time she had spoken to her like this.
“Abigail, don’t be angry,” Natalia said subconsciously. “I know

you’ve spent so much on me over the years, and I’m proud to have you as my daughter. Can you help me out one more time?”
She still refused to believe that Abigail had no money.
Abigail’s disappointment deepened, and she replied firmly, “I can’t help you. If you don’t believe me, check my account. When I left the Winchester family, I didn’t take a cent, and I won’t have any money to give you in the future.”
Realizing Abigail was genuinely upset, Natalia attempted to explain.
But before she could say anything, Abigail hung up.
Abigail’s attitude left her feeling disheartened. Despite not being her biological daughter, they had lived together for over 20 years. Yet Natalia had always assumed she was the type to take money from the company.
Without the mood to continue the battle with Caroline, Abigail decisively ended the live–streaming, quickly saying goodbye to her fans before shutting it down.
When Caroline realized the battle was over, instead of feeling relieved, she became even angrier.
She couldn’t help but kick the table and said angrily, “She clearly looked down on me and just ended the match herself!”
As Natalia sensed Caroline’s fury, her guilt towards Abigail vanished.
Chapter 41 She’s My Wife
She thought it was all Abigail’s fault–if she had just given money, Caroline wouldn’t have felt humiliated.
7/7
After internally cursing Abigail, Natalia put her arm around Caroline’s shoulders and comforted her. “Don’t be upset, Caroline. It’s just a match. No big deal. James and I have already discussed it; we’ll go to court tomorrow to transfer your custody.”
Caroline beamed immediately.
Seeing her daughter’s happiness made Natalia feel elated. “You’re our real daughter. You’ll have everything Abigail has. Everyone will admire you. Don’t let a mere live streamer get you down.”
Tears filled Caroline’s eyes as she rushed into Natalia’s embrace.
With the identity of a Winchester daughter, no one would criticize her for marrying Felix.
Yet, when she thought of how indifferent Felix had been to her pregnancy, she felt disappointed again.
She realized she needed a new plan.
