Growing up under the watchful eyes of her stepfather and his henchmen, Abigail was privileged to witness some of Valentino's dark side.
Sometimes, Valentino would insist that she accompanies him on some of his underworld mission. His intention was to simply instil fear in her and to prevent her from running away. He would compel her to watch how some unfortunate men and women, - who gossiped, cheated or stole from him were tortured to death.
In Valentino's world, stealing and disloyalty was a crime punishable by death. This was the reason why Abigail didn't make the mistake of taking anything from his home on the night she escaped.
On different occasions, whenever Valentine needed Abby to be taken home due to his busy schedule, he would entrust her to Marcelo.
After Don Caprio, who happened to be Valentino's right-hand man and the top ranking henchman, Marcelo was next.
