Xander thought, 'Even that ugly, foolish Keith can become Abigail's alternative. Why can't I?'Keith, who was completely clueless, was suddenly summoned to the CEO's office by an internal call. He asked, "Mr. Zane, are you looking for me?"Xander stared at him without speaking. His gaze which was blazing with anger made Keith feel a chill down his spine. He asked again, "Mr. Zane, is there something wrong with my report?"Keith thought, 'He troubled me twice after I said his mood was good. I think I shouldn't speak carelessly from now on.'He had a few days off. And he did not make any mistakes when he worked today. Keith could not figure out what he did that made his boss unhappy.After a long silence, Xander faintly spoke, "Why are you still single?"The boss who never asked his employees about their personal matters suddenly showed concern about his worker's private matters. Keith suddenly felt something was not right. He answered, "Mr. Zane, I like to be single."Xander size
Abigail came to the CEO's office. She respectfully said, "Mr. Zane, are you looking for me?"Xander put out the cigarette that he just lit up. He had not even smoked it. He asked, "Have you come up with any ideas about what type of shoes our female employees should wear during formal occasions?"Abigail did not expect him to actually remember this matter that was so insignificant to him. She was very touched as she said, "Mr. Zane, thank you for showing so much concern for the female employees!"It was not easy for women to be in the workplace. Many companies would even impose harsh requirements on female workers. It was extremely rare that a male superior with so much power would consider the difficulties faced by female employees.The more Abigail spent time working with Xander, the more she felt that the rumors about him were nonsense. She thought, 'He's such a nice person. How could he possibly be cold-hearted?'She immediately took her phone out and showed him a picture. She
Abigail did that for the benefit of herself and for the female employees of the company. If everyone was happy, she was happy too. But after all, Xander was a businessman.Businessmen were mercenaries. To him, earning money would always be the most important thing. He was not so kind to the point where he could act in the best interest of all females.His thoughts, his actions, and the gentleness that he showed were all because Abigail was his lawfully wedded wife.Everything that he did was to make her happy.Abigail inexplicably felt a little guilty under Xander's focused gaze. She said, "Of course, I'm happy."'As long as she's happy,' Xander thought before he smiled as he said, "It's late. Let's call it a day.""Okay." Abigail stretched her hand to look at her watch. It was rare that she could get off work on time.When she left the company building and was ready to take the subway home, only then did she remember she had a company car. She then ran back to get her car.She
Margaret smiled as she said, "Life is indeed better without you two irritating us."Abigail pursed her lips as she cutely said, "Grandmas don't love me anymore. What should I do?"The two old ladies were amused by her cuteness. They chatted happily for a while before Abigail finally talked about the purpose of this call, "Grandma, do you know what Nathan's shoe size is?"When Cassandra heard that, she immediately glanced at Margaret. It seemed like she was trying to tell Margaret, 'Look, I told you they've reconciled. You didn't believe me.'Margaret grinned from ear to ear. But she was worried that Abigail might be shy. So, she replied with no questions asked, "Nate's shoe size is ten and a half."Abigail noticed the unconscious gestures the two old women made. But she pretended as if she did not see it. She did not want to give them hope and then disappoint them. She said, "Okay. Grandmas, you should continue eating. I'll call you two again next time.""Sure. You too. Remember
The WhatsApp message eliminated all of Xander's uneasiness and worries. He felt a strange joy in his heart.He thought, 'Abigail bought me a gift. This proves that my efforts aren't in vain. She probably can feel the determination I have to live my life with her.'He quickly typed: [Where are you now? I'll go and get it.]After he finished typing and right before he wanted to press send, he only realized that Nathan was not currently in Florivera. Nathan could not meet Abigail for now.He then deleted what he typed. He typed again: [Why not you pass it to me personally when I'm back in Florivera?]After a while, Abigail replied with a few words: [Well, okay then.]Her words showed a strong sense of disappointment. Xander did not want her to be disappointed. He replied: [If you don't mind the trouble, you can mail it to my house. I'll then be able to wear it as soon as I'm back.]He then immediately sent her an address. The address was unit one six zero one, building three, Glenn
Felix unhappily said, "What has the world come to? We're not blocking the road. They're so arrogant just because they're driving a luxury car. So what if they're driving a luxury car?"Melody said, "Their one wheel might even be more expensive than our car. They can be arrogant."Abigail could not make them notice her by honking at them. She then rolled down her car window to call them twice. But they still did not respond to her. So, she could only get out of her car to phone them. "Why did you guys ignore me?"Melody said, "We sent so many messages in the group to stop you from spending money for the unworthy jerk. You're the one who ignored us."Abigail waved at them as she said, "I mean now. Look back now."Melody saw her as soon as she turned her head. She asked, "Why did you come to the car park?"Abigail patted the car beside her. She wanted to share the good stuff with them. She said, "To park the car."Melody ran to her after she ended the call. She circled the car. She
Abigail disagreed with Felix. "Marriage is about two adults forming a new family together. Both are adults. No one should be controlling anyone. Fee, I tell you, you shouldn't have this kind of outdated mindset of wanting to control your wife. Or else, no girl will be willing to marry you."Every time they argued, Felix would lose to the two of them. He had learned his lessons after losing many times. He said, "Yes. Whatever you two say is correct."Melody responded, "You don't mean it."Felix said, "What else do you want me to do?"The three of them chatted while going back home. They divided the tasks after they were home. One cooked rice, another steamed the fish, and the other one washed the vegetables. After a while, the two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes were served.Felix prepared three cans of fruit beer. He said, "Although I don't really like that person, we should still celebrate Caterpie today."Abigail said, "We'll celebrate after I have the money to buy my own
Abigail laughed. "How could one not listen to good news? I just wanted to know what kind of sheer dumb luck I've been in recently. Why have I been receiving so much good news?"Melody said, "Out of the depth of misfortune comes bliss."Abigail laughed."Then I shall share some of my good luck with you all.""Hear me out first," Felix said.Abigail and Melody said, "Okay, shoot.""The comic series you drew in college, entitled 'My College Life', suddenly became popular," said Felix.Abigail asked in confusion, "Didn't we use the series to make up the numbers for the studio? Why did it suddenly become popular?""I thought something was wrong with our backend data when I saw the data for your comic series that day. After checking, I learned that your comic series is too realistic and practically a real-life portrayal of most college students at Florivera University, causing most students to resonate with it. The students in the Chrysalan language department saw your comic and reco
