Well, I'll read into this one for fun, since others on the forum are so fond of reading into this series
Abe clearly isn't the type to say what she means directly. I got the impression that she "is hoping" Lawrence will chase her, and that she's being deliberately ambiguous as to why. You can read her statement in a multitude of ways, and I think that's partly why Lawrence laughed at it. Also, Abe clearly could have killed Lawrence several times in the episode, but didn't want to.
Abe may have just been playing the situation masterfully. By leaving him *only* with the deed to Harold's inn, she was effectively forcing Lawrence to buy back Horo. By also stealing his money (when she didn't really need it), she was probably just hoping Horo would initiate a chase (since she's vengeful, prideful, and clearly wearing the pants in the relationship).
