Protractor: How to resolve promise and stop skipping of scenarios if one scenario fails

I have a Protarctor-CucumberJS framework and a suite of test scenarios. When I execute the entire suite, one script fails at an expect (ChaiJS) statement. 

Scenario 1  : Passed
Scenario 2  : Passed
Scenario 3  : Failed (Unresolved Promise)
Scenario 4  : Skipped
Scenario 5  : Skipped
Scenario 6  : Skipped
Scenario 7  : Skipped
Scenario 8  : Skipped
Scenario 9  : Skipped
Scenario 10 : Skipped

The step definition of that particular step looks like this:

Then('I verify if valid success message received as {string}', function (successMessage) {
    expect($(.abc).getText()).to.eventually.equal(successMessage);
});

Due to a defect, app is not showing an error, the element: $(".abc") is not displayed on screen and this scenario fails after 30 seconds of function time-out. Complete error is pasted below. But the problem is all other scenarios after this are skipped with the same error message.

Error: function timed out, ensure the promise resolves within 30000 milliseconds at Timeout._time.default.setTimeout [as _onTimeout] (C:\bla\bla\node_modules\cucumber\lib\user_code_runner.js:81:20) at ontimeout (timers.js:436:11) at tryOnTimeout (timers.js:300:5) at listOnTimeout (timers.js:263:5) at Timer.processTimers (timers.js:223:10)

Questions:

  1. How can I avoid skipping of preceding scenarios if one scenario fails?
  2. How to resolve the promise in situations like above.

Are you able to use async functions? If so you could try with a conditional for if the element is present or not, something like this: 

    Then('I verify if valid success message received as {string}', async function (successMessage, done) {
        const abcElement = await $(.abc).isPresent();
        if (abcElement) {
            expect(await $(.abc).getText()).to.eventually.equal(successMessage);
            done();
        } else {
            done();
        }
    });
