Nathan replied: [You shouldn't forget that he's not servicing you for free. You spent money, and you're the customer. Don't worry about whether we'll be able to stay friends or not.]Abigail thought what he said made sense and agreed: [I know.]Nathan typed again: [Abigail...]'Again, it's like this again,' Abigail thought. She pouted her lips and typed: [You should stop calling my name and not saying anything else.]Xander had so much he wanted to say to her but did not know how to say it out loud. Ultimately, he could only reply with a single response: [Never mind.]Abigail thought glumly about what he meant by "Never mind". Could he not take the initiative to mention his job to allow her to know more about him? Nathan knew her job inside and out while she was the same as when they registered for marriage. She did not even know what exactly he does for a career. She asked him: [Nathan, are you busy with work?]Nathan replied: [I'm not very busy recently.]If he were busy, he w
'On the day that we do officially meet, what happens if he speaks differently from when he chats on WhatsApp or when our ideals don't match? Never mind, I won't think about it. Everything will fall in place in the end,' Abigail thought.She massaged her sore neck and noticed that it was already late in the night. Abigail got up to wash her face in the bathroom. She then earnestly did her skincare routine before lying comfortably on her bed. She planned to watch two minutes of the news.She was usually more concerned about current affairs and financial news and rarely watched any entertainment news. She recognized Stella, who was number one on most popular searches today. She tapped into the website to take a closer look. It wrote #StellaForChloeBay#.Chloe Bay was the female lead character for Abigail's romance comic series that was situated in the Republican era. It was also a very popular 2D character that the readers adored. Usually, reputable actors were unwilling to accept acti
If it were any other issue, Abigail might not be able to give any feedback. She could merely be Stella's loyal listener. In this case, she had the right to speak about it as the original author of the comic.After she finished listening to Stella, Abigail spoke slowly yet gently to her, "Stella, for every other person, there'll be another interpretation of Hamlet. You don't need to care too much about the original author's intentions. You just need to perform according to your understanding.""I also thought so, and I used to think that this was how you do it. It's just that this time..." Stella was unsure Abigail could understand her worry. The more she cared about this, the more she wanted to perform better, hence the more she worried she would not be able to do it well."Stella, I've also read this comic. Do you want to listen to my interpretation of Chloe Bay as a character?" Abigail's voice was soft and could magically soothe the restlessness in anyone's mind.Stella exclaimed
"Lucas is even worse than Ron." No one else might know how horrendous Lucas was, but Stella knew better than anyone."Stella, regardless of what happens, you can't take your body as a joke..." Before Abigail could finish speaking, the sound of scraping and Lucas's sleepy voice came from the other end of the phone, "Honey, who is it that made you not sleep in the middle of the night, and have you run out to call them? Do you have a paramour behind my back? Hmmm?" Abigail had no intention of listening in on the private matters between their married life and quickly hung up the phone.She was exhausted initially, but after chatting so much, her head cleared up much more. She got up and turned on her computer. She then wrote a two-thousand-word letter. She also used her pen name to register a Facebook account and followed Stella. She then sent this letter to her via private messaging.Abigail did not like to share her life on social media, so she did not register an account. If it was n
Xander thought that his friends were unreliable in that aspect. Besides them, only the two old ladies at this home were able to help him. The two old ladies also understood the actual situation between husband and wife. They could teach him based on his specific situation.Margaret was still very wary and asked, "Then why did you let them bring so many things here?"Xander was crying and laughing at Margaret's words as he replied, "As a member of the younger generation, shouldn't I bring stuff when I come to see you, Grandma?"Only then did Margaret feel relieved. "It's all because of the foolish things you did last time, you rascal. You've made this old lady so frightened because of it."Xander helped Margaret into the house, then had the butler and housemaids leave before saying, "Grandma, where's Abigail's grandma?"Margaret replied, "She's feeling slightly unwell today. The doctor gave her some medication, and she's resting in her room."Xander immediately stood up. "I'll go
"They both had flings elsewhere, and no one owed anyone anything. The only ones they truly owed to were you and Esther. Both of you were just children and were given birth to by both of them. Yet, they never cared for you. Instead, your father treated his illegitimate child quite well."After hearing all that Margaret had to say, any remaining goodwill Xander had over the married couple was gone. Suppose that man had a woman he liked before his marriage and wanted to be together with the woman. In that case, he should have rejected the marriage alliance. Rather than doing that, he enjoyed the benefits of the marriage alliance while searching for so-called true love. If it was true love, he should not have let any woman be a mistress and let her stay by his side for tens of years illegitimately.These types of people were cowardly and incompetent yet still wanted to put the blame on someone else. Xander gave a cold chuckle. "Grandma, Esther and I have all grown up.""Being grown up d
Xander said panickedly, "Grandma, I've never thought of that.""It doesn't matter if you have this thought or not. What matters is what Abigail thinks." Margaret continued, "Since you missed the best time to reveal your identity, you don't have to bring it up specifically. Just be good to Abigail, even better than before. She'll understand your good intentions."Margaret suddenly thought of something before she finished speaking. "Wait a minute. You two slept together, and Abigail even bought you shoes. How could she not know that you're her husband?"Xander knew they had misunderstood. He had no choice but to cause the misunderstanding that night. He said, "We didn't sleep together. Abigail and I were on a business trip in Valtara at that time. Abigail fainted at the sight of blood, and I asked Grandma Cassandra about her condition. Grandma Cassandra was worried about Abigail, and she video called her. I answered the call for Abigail because I didn't want Grandma Cassandra to worry
Abigail said, "Grandma, I've received the apartment I bought. Once I finish renovating it, I'll pick you up and we'll live together in Florivera, okay?""Okay," said Cassandra."Grandma, I've been thinking about something for a while and decided to talk to you about it.""Go ahead.""I've decided to give Nathan and me a chance to see how things go between us.""Why did you suddenly change your mind?" Cassandra glanced at Xander sitting across from her. He usually appeared calm and reserved, but now he seemed so nervous that he did not know what to do with his hands."Because I feel he's a trustworthy man, and he might be a good mate with stable emotions. Grandma, would you agree to us continuing?" Although whether to be with Nathan was ultimately up to Abigail, she still wanted to know her grandmother's opinion.Under Xander's gaze, Cassandra said slowly, "What if your feelings are wrong? Don't forget that he wanted a divorce before."Margaret threw a punch at Xander in front o
