Abigail's Absent Husband Is A CEO Chapter 415
No one had asked Abigail this question prior to this. So, she did not really think about what made Nathan a good person. She pondered seriously but she still could not come up with his qualities."What's wrong? You can't even say what your husband's qualities are?" Xander lit up a cigarette. But he extinguished it in the ashtray before he even started smoking.At this moment, he was warning himself not to smoke in front of Abigail. He did not want her to have a bad impression of him.Xander's questioning tone made Abigail feel uncomfortable. She answered, "I'm not sure how Nathan behaves outside and how he treats other people. But he gives me a very good feeling that makes me think he probably is a good husband."Xander thought, 'Nathan hadn't done anything for her. When she needed help the most, I even had a lawyer approach her for a divorce. And yet, she still believes in Nathan so much. She so blindly thinks Nathan is good just because Nathan is her lawful husband.' Xander felt

Abigail leaned on the door. She held her breath and listened to the movements outside. She faintly heard Xander's footsteps going upstairs. She thought, 'He probably went up to the third floor and didn't stop at the second floor.'He probably won't give me any trouble, right?'Abigail was not sure. So, she leaned on the door to listen for a while more. She was finally relaxed when she did not hear any unusual movements.She covered her chest and went back to the side of her bed. She immediately grabbed her phone. She thought, 'So long has passed, but Nathan still didn't reply to me.'He's probably busy working. That's why he hasn't had the time to respond.' So, she quickly typed a lot of words: [Nathan, can you not tell Xander everything about us? Why did you even tell him about the misunderstanding between us? And you even told him that I don't remember what you look like?I know you two have a good relationship. You're not wrong for unconditionally trusting your good friend. But

Abigail thought, 'Nathan must have his reasons if he isn't willing to tell.' She was willing to wait until he felt like telling her. She asked: [When are you coming back to Florivera?]Nathan answered: [I'm still not sure when's the exact date. But it's probably within the next few days.]Abigail texted: [I just got back to Florivera with my boss. Our schedule is quite busy for the next few days. We'll have to work until very late at night every day. I'm afraid I might not have the time to meet you in the next few days. My boss doesn't have any plans for next weekend for now. I'll probably be free that day. If you're back in Florivera by then, let's meet on that day. What do you think?]Nathan replied: [Sure!]Abigail then texted: [Nathan, there's one more thing that I want to tell you.]Nathan responded: [Tell me.][We're the two people who'll be spending our days together. Your parents cheated on each other and that's their own business. It totally has nothing to do with you. A

Xander knew very clearly what Lucas had just been doing. But he totally did not feel that he had disturbed him. He said, "From your voice, I don't think I woke you up."Lucas responded, "I'm not like you. You have a wife, but you don't dare to acknowledge her. To you, the bed has only one function, and that's for sleeping. I'm different. My wife is in my arms. With such a beautiful night, I must do something that matches its beauty."Xander said, "All right, you carry on. I'll call you again in a few minutes."Lucas responded, "A few minutes? Can you please say a longer time? Don't underestimate me."Xander asked, "How long do I have to wait then?"Lucas answered, "I'm already done. Just say whatever you want to say."Xander said, "I'm planning to tell Abigail my identity. But I'm worried she can't accept that Nathan and I are the same person. Can you help me with—"Before Xander could finish talking, Lucas rudely interrupted him, "Xander, do you have some misunderstanding about

Lucas was unreliable. Ron, whose wife had run away from him, was even more unreliable.In the end, Xander thought of Alwyn. But Xander's marriage situation was different from Alwyn's.Alwyn and Susie were childhood friends and had grown up together. Their families had set up their marriage for them very long ago. They immediately registered their marriage when they reached marriageable age.After pondering, Xander thought of the only female friend he had, Samantha. He thought, 'Samantha is a woman too. She should know a woman's thoughts better than me.'When he called her, Samantha's reaction was similar to Lucas's. She said, "CEO of the Zane Corporation, it's middle of the night now, why are you calling me instead of hugging your wife sleeping?"Xander was speechless.Samantha asked, "Don't tell me that Abigail still doesn't know you're her husband."Xander responded, "Yes."Samantha was extremely frustrated as she said, "Just tell me how you want me to help you again."Xande

He said, "You're you. Why do you want to compare yourself to other people?"This answer made Samantha very happy. She thought she was different to him. So, she gathered her courage to confess her feelings to him. "Xander, I like you. Do you want to be in a relationship with me?"She was so panicked that she did not even know what he was actually doing at that time. She just knew he responded without even lifting his head, "I'm still young. I'm not planning to be in a relationship yet. If you want to experience what it's like to be in a relationship, find someone else. Lucas doesn't have a girlfriend. You can ask him if he's willing to be in a relationship with you."His words were harder to accept than if he were to just directly reject her. But at that time, she did not want to give up yet. She asked again, "But the person I like is you. I only want to be in a relationship with you. I want you to be my boyfriend."Xander said, "I have no feelings for you."She knew he would give

A chill swept over Xander's face as he said in a firm voice, "I don't enjoy such jokes."Samantha laughed. "Of course, not for real. Just to make Abigail misunderstand that we've been intimate. If she gets jealous or upset, it means she cares about you. If she doesn't, well, I wish you both good luck in nurturing affection over time.""I refuse to use a method that could potentially hurt Abigail to test her feelings for me," Xander said. Even if Abigail did not accept him, he, as her legal husband, could not bear to cause her any distress.Samantha knew Xander was a man of strong principles. If he said no, no amount of persuasion would sway him. "Okay, pretend I never suggested it. But I can't think of any other way to help you.""Goodbye, Samantha." Xander ended the call and scrolled through his contacts once again. His work phone was filled with business partners, and his personal phone did not contain many contacts he could rely on. After several minutes, he had not made a singl

Susanna paused, before she replied, "Abigail is such a darling, beautiful and kind. How could anyone not adore her? But the most important factor is that she's your wife. Of course, I'm going to like your wife, Xander, and I'm going to take great care of her. I'll ensure that she feels nothing but comfort when she moves in."Xander could not help but feel a wave of satisfaction wash over him at Susanna's acceptance of Abigail. "Susanna, I appreciate it," he said.Susanna blinked, taken aback. "What's gotten into you today, Xander?"Xander glanced at his wristwatch, his brows knitted in concern. "Abigail should be up by now.""I've got it covered, don't worry. I've prepared breakfast—both Alvonian and Chrysalian cuisine. We'll make sure Abigail is satisfied."Just as Susanna left the room, Xander's personal cell phone on the coffee table buzzed. He picked it up immediately, a text from Abigail lighting up the screen. His eyes lingered on the words, "Even if the whole world turns it
