world was still singing his Praises in preparation for her endgame Abigail began to subtly withdraw from her roles in both the company and their social life she cited a desire to focus on her philanthropic work and personal projects Theodore self-absorbed as ever barely noticed the change he was too preoccupied with maintaining his Public Image and managing his affair to pay much attention to his wife's activities as the pieces of her plan fell into place Abigail felt a mix of anticipation and trepidation she had spent 13 years meticulously crafting her revenge and soon she would see

it come to fruition the Empire she had helped build was about to crumble and from its ashes she would emerge reborn wealthy beyond measure and finally free from the shackles of her fraudulent marriage despite Abigail's meticulous planning and execution there were several moments over the years when her scheme came dangerously close close to unraveling these close calls served as Stark reminders of the precarious nature of her deception and forced her to adapt and refine her methods constantly one of the most harrowing incidents occurred in 2012 when the company underwent a routine audit by an external

firm the lead auditor a sharpy accountant named Dominic Ferell began to ask pointed questions about certain discrepancies he had noticed in the company's Financial records Abigail's heart raced as she realized that Ferell was dangerous close to uncovering her embezzlement scheme thinking quickly Abigail orchestrated a series of distractions and misdirections she accidentally spilled coffee on frell's laptop necessitating a delay in the audit during this time she worked feverishly to patch the holes in her financial smoke screen when the audit resumed Abigail had managed to cover her tracks but the experience left her shaken and more cautious

than ever another complication arose in 2015 when Theodore unexpectedly decided to bring in a new CFO citing his desire for Abigail to have more time for her philanthropic Pursuits the new CFO Reginald Hartley was known for his forensic approach to financial management Abigail knew that Hartley's presence posed a significant threat to her operations to neutralize this threat Abigail employed a multifaceted approach she used her extensive network to gather compromising information on Hartley which she kept as Insurance simultaneously she befriended Hartley's wife Elaine integrating herself into their personal lives this allowed Abigail to subtly influence Hartley's

decisions and keep him focused on areas of the business that wouldn't interfere with her plans perhaps the closest call came in 2017 when Theodore's mistress Veronica began to grow dissatisfied with her role as the other woman in a fit of jealousy Veronica threatened to expose the affair to Abigail unbeknownst to both Theodore and Veronica Abigail intercepted this threat recognizing the potential for this situation to derail her carefully laid plans Abigail took decisive action she anonymously provided Veronica with evidence of Theodore's other indiscretions effectively turning Veronica against him simultaneously she manipulated events to make Theodore believe

that Veronica was becoming a liability the result was a messy but quiet end to their affair with Abigail's involvement remaining hidden each of these close calls left Abigail in increasingly paranoid and isolated the constant stress of maintaining her facade while orchestrating her complex Revenge began to take a toll on her mental and physical health yet each near Discovery only strengthened her resolve she knew that she had come too far and sacrificed too much to let her plan fail now as 2019 dawned Abigail sensed that the time had come to set the final stage of her

plan in motion the company had reached its Zenith with a market valuation that exceeded even Theodore's wildest dreams the financial world was at their feet and Theodore's ego had never been more inflated it was the perfect moment for Abigail to pull the rug out from under him over the past few months Abigail had been methodically transferring her hidden assets to her Alter Ego Evelyn Sinclair she had purchased a secluded Villa in the south of France under this name and had begun the process of establishing a new life there every detail was meticulously planned from her

new wardrobe to the carefully crafted backstory she would use in her new community in preparation for her disappearance Abigail began to plant seeds of doubt about the company's future prospects among key investors and Industry analysts she used her network of contacts to spread subtle rumors about potential regulatory issues and Market saturation her goal was to create a climate of uncertainty that would exacerbate the chaos that would follow her Vanishing act Abigail also took steps to ensure that the authorities would be led down false paths in their inevitable investigation she carefully crafted a trail of evidence

suggesting that she had been embezzling money on a much smaller scale than was actually the case this false Trail would serve to distract investigators from the true extent of her scheme and muddy the Waters of the financial investigation that would follow on the home front Abigail began to distance herself emotionally from Theodore citing stress and a need for personal space she spoke of taking a solo vacation to find herself laying the groundwork for her disappear appearance Theodore self-absorbed as ever barely registered these changes in his wife's behavior theight before her planned departure Abigail allowed herself

a moment of reflection she stood in her walk-in closet surrounded by the trappings of the life she was about to leave behind designer dresses expensive jewelry and photographs of a smiling couple that no longer existed for a brief moment she felt a Pang of Doubt was she really prepared to throw away 13 years of her life but then she remembered the pain of Theodore betrayal The Years of Living a lie and the future that awaited her with renewed determination she finished packing a small inconspicuous suitcase with the essentials she would need for her new life

everything else the clothes the jewels the memories would be left behind a final Act of shedding her old identity as she lay in bed for the last time next to her sleeping oblivious husband Abigail allowed herself a small satisfied smile tomorrow Abigail Blackwell would cease to exist and her Masterpiece of Revenge would be complete on the morning of September 15th 2019 Theodore Blackwell woke to find the other side of the bed empty this in itself was not unusual Abigail was often an early riser what was unusual was the silence that permeated the house no smell

of coffee brewing no sound of the shower running or closet doors opening Theodore called out for Abigail his voice echoing through the empty rooms as the minutes ticked by and his calls went unanswered a sense of une knees began to creep over him he checked her closet noting with growing alarm that some of her clothes were missing her favorite suitcase was gone from the attic in the kitchen he found a note propped against the coffee maker I need some time to myself don't try to find me a at first Theodore assumed Abigail had simply followed
