"What is it this time?" She heard a grumpy voice.

She saw a middle-aged man walking towards her with a stern expression. He was wearing a white cloak. The mask that covered his mouth was pulled down to his neck. His lips had curved downwards that showed he was utterly displeased.

As he walked forward, the crowd made way for him.

"Abigail...."

"What did you do this time?" He asked, his voice carried a frustrated tone.

"Dr. Carson, I will tell you what happened exactly," Ellie interjected as she advanced towards Dr. Bill Carson on her high heels.

"As you know, I and Abigail Grace are competing for senior scientist post. And I"m working hard to experiment with something new. I was in my process of experimenting and while doing it I ran out of pota.s.sium chloride crystals. So, I left to get them from the storage. But by the time, I returned, all my equipment was in a mess. Moreover, my experiment setup is ruined. Now, if I want to conduct it again, it"s going to take lots of hours." Ellie informed as she stared into Dr. Bill Carson"s eyes with her watery eyes.

"What truly happened?" Dr. Bill Carson was growing impatient. And at the same time, he had a hunch that this was something related to Abigail.

"Let me explain, Dr.Bill." Amelia volunteered. She was Ellie"s friend.

"When Ellie went to get her compounds. Abigail came to Ellie"s table, saying that she needed Sulphuric acid (H2SO4). She took 10ml in her test tube and returned to her table. Exactly ten seconds later, the table blasted. When I went to inspect, what happened with the Sulphuric acid that caused the explosion, I noticed the empty distilled water bottle. Then I understood, she had poured distilled water into Sulphuric acid, and after she left, it exploded. Since the day after tomorrow is the last day to submit the project. She decided to damage Ellie"s project. 

I didn"t think Miss. Grace would stoop this low." Amelia gave a disgusted look toward her at the end.

"Abigail….. Why do you need to do that? If you want more time, we would have granted it if you requested. Why do you need to perform these cheap tricks? She is lucky that this happened when she was away. What if she was near? What if that blasted of sulphuric acid came into contact with other exposed chemicals? If that happened, it would have lead to the explosion of the entire laboratory, which could have resulted in the people here losing their lives. What were we going to tell their families? Would you shoulder the responsibility? How would you repent for making them lose their life?" Dr.Bill Carson shouted at her, he was unable to control his anger. Abigail stood there without opening her mouth.

Abigail Grace was a junior Edaphology Scientist in Vasily Vasil"evich Dokuchaev Research center at Saint Petersburg in Russia.

And also the mysterious CEO of AG Agro Groups Pvt. Ltd. But no one knew about her being the CEO of the aforementioned company. She didn"t reveal it since she wanted to live a normal life and not the busy CEO"s life.


She believed that being a CEO was not an easy task. She thought that it was a chair where people wished to sit. And to do it, everyone did their best to s.n.a.t.c.h it, either fairly or unfairly. But who cared about the method, the result was what they desired. So, she handed her company to her friend Samantha  Kim for management.

Both Samantha and Abigail were friends from their school days.

Abigail"s mother, Esther Grace died when she was twelve. Before her mother died, she had sold all their properties and fixed the money on Abigail"s name at a bank in Russia.

Abigail"s mother told her to move to Russia because in Russia her friend Nancy Kim was living. She lived there with her family. And she was her best friend who knew about her everything. She also knew about Abigail"s secret, which was about the supernatural powers she had. Back in France, her powers had put her at a disadvantage. She was known for the bad luck there. So, her mother decided to send her away from this place. Hence, she contacted her best friend, Nancy Kim.

Mrs. Kim (Nancy Kim) even knew Abigail"s father. But Abigail didn"t have the slightest knowledge about her father. Not even his name, neither his face nor there was a photo on the wall.

So, whenever someone inquired about her father, she would hang her head low and would not speak. This allowed others to take advantage of her and bully her. Some people even made fun of her, saying that she was a b.a.s.t.a.r.d child. They even insulted her mother in front of her.

After she decided to become an Edaphologist, she also resolved to set up her own company. Accordingly, she built AG Agro groups Pvt Ltd.

Firstly, she started working in different laboratories and eventually ended up in Vasily Vasil"evich Dokuchaev Research center.

When she entered, Ellie also joined at some time around. Every time Abigail found something, it would reach higher authorities and she would become more successful, leading to her rising quickly to the junior scientist level with her hard work.

But on the other hand, Ellie used dirty methods to become a junior scientist such as Abigail.

However, her promotions didn"t help her gain knowledge, but since she had a backup, she bullied everyone around.

Even though she was satisfied. Abigail"s smile to her colleagues made her uncomfortable. It was just she found Abigail"s presence irritating. So, whenever she got the chance, she would frame and bully her.

But today was a different situation. This circ.u.mstance could make her lose her job and cancel her license of researching for a few years.

Until now, she endured enough from the people near her. Now she was not going to take it lightly. She would retaliate against everything.
