"Why do I feel like he's mad at me?" Abigail asked.Dr. Watson answered, "Why would he be?"Abigail was not sure if he would take her advice, but she figured she might as well give it a shot, as resting was key for him now. "I'll try and talk some sense into him then."Dr. Watson gripped Abigail's hand, exclaiming in excitement, "You're my knight in shining armor, Ms. Renee."Abigail pulled her hand back. "Dr. Watson, don't say it like that...""Abigail, Abigail!" Susanna rushed over to her with a smile that was all sweetness and light. "I've learned another North Floriveran dish. How about you taste it for me tonight?"Abigail responded with a radiant smile, "Sounds great."Susanna hooked her arm and started to lead her inside. "Come on in. You tell me what you want to eat or drink, I'll get it ready straight away. You can also call me before you visit next time, tell me what you want, and I'll have it ready when you arrive."Dr. Watson was disgruntled. "Hey, hold up with the
It seemed like that sentence was not very effective. Abigail then slowly added, "If you die, and your wife is still so young, she'll surely marry another man. When that happens, she and the other man will spend your money, live in your house, and sleep in your bed..."Before Abigail could finish talking, she noticed Xander was giving off an angry vibe. He took his phone out to call Dr. Watson. "Get ready, I'll come down now."Xander thought, 'When I die, Abigail wants to take my money, marry another man, live in my house, and sleep in my bed... Don't even dream about it. I'll definitely get well. And I want to live longer than her.'Abigail was speechless.'I thought Xander was different from other men. I thought this kind of poor provocation wouldn't have any effect on him.'But unexpectedly, this trick works on every man.'While Abigail was feeling proud of her effective trick, Xander's mellow, pleasant voice could be heard again. "What do you want to do this afternoon?"Abiga
After quite a while, Xander noticed Abigail was not planning on looking away. So, he raised his head and looked at her. "You've been staring at me for so long. Is there something on my face?"Abigail was caught looking at him. She awkwardly scratched her head. "I-I wasn't looking at you. I was looking at the weather outside. The sunlight today is scorching. I guess I'll probably get sunburn if I go out for a walk."He thought, 'She said she was looking at the weather outside. I'll just go along with her then. I'm her husband. I shouldn't argue with her.' He then asked, "What did Dr. Watson say to you?"Abigail replied, "He just asked me how I convinced you."Xander asked, "You told him?"Abigail answered, "Yes."Xander said, "You shouldn't just tell everything to other people about the matters between us."Abigail responded, "He cares about you. And it was Dr. Watson who asked me to convince you. Of course, I should explain to him clearly. Or else, he might think there's some am
Abigail whispered as she observed his facial expression, "Two mornings ago, Mr. Hagrid called me to pick you up from Illumination Club. I went. And I saw you and Mallory on the bed..."She stopped there. Abigail thought Xander would probably explain. Unexpectedly, he confidently asked her some rhetorical questions, "So, you concluded that I cheated? Or do you think I'm interested in Mallory?"Abigail mumbled, "They say men think with their lower bodies. Men can sleep with any woman regardless of if he has any feelings for her..."Xander's face darkened. "You don't trust me?"Abigail replied, "It's not that I don't trust you. It's..."She thought, 'I saw it with my own eyes. I said that out because I wanted to hear his explanation. But he said nothing. So, how can I trust him?'Can anyone help me? What can I say next to change from being passive to taking the initiative?'Xander then said, "That morning, what time did you arrive at Illumination Club?"Abigail remembered the time
Xander was speechless.He could only continue reading his book after he failed to strike up a conversation.He thought, 'In the past, I could quickly be fully focused on everything I did. But why is it that when Abigail is here now, I'll always want to just stare at her? It seems like Abigail is more captivating than the books.'Her face is rosy with a little baby fat. Many times, I just wanted to pinch it to know how it felt like. I wonder if it's as springy as a boiled egg.'What attracts me the most are her eyes. They're clear and bright. When she was staring at me, it seemed like my soul was taken away by her...'While he was enthralled by the book, Susanna knocked on the door before she came in. She was holding a tray of some fruits and desserts.She did not even look at Xander. She smiled as she walked straight to Abigail. "Abigail, I made all these desserts by myself. Have a try and see if you like them."Xander thought, 'Abigail is indeed likable. Not only did Grandma al
"Susanna, you didn't know about it. It's not your fault. You don't have to blame yourself." Abigail then thought, 'I hadn't mentioned my peanut allergy to Susanna. And I didn't ask before I ate them. I can only blame myself for being too careless.'"Abigail, I actually knew. I was just senile. I forgot about what Xander told me. He told me that you have a peanut allergy. He told me not to have peanut-related food in the house." Susanna was so worried that she wanted to slap herself.She thought, 'Abigail is such a nice girl. If something bad happens to her because of me, I'll have to live in self-blame and guilt for the rest of my life.'Susanna did not dare to think about what would happen to Xander if something happened to Abigail."Susanna, it's fine even if you knew about it." Abigail glanced at Xander from the corner of her eye. She thought, 'I didn't tell him about my peanut allergy, how did he know about it?'And not only that, but he actually remembered it and even attenti
Kane stared at Xander with his eyes open. "You don't know why I carry this kind of medicine with me?"Xander might have forgotten about it. But Kane did not dare to forget.One day, in the middle of the night, Xander called Kane to tell him Abigail had a peanut allergy. He asked him to develop a peanut allergy medicine as quickly as possible.He even instructed Kane to carry this medicine with him all the time after he developed the medicine just in case something happened.Kane thought, 'He's actually doubting me now!'Kane angrily mumbled, "This isn't like you, Xander."After Xander took the medicine and knew there was no negative reaction, he then said, "Give it to Abigail."Kane just ignored him. But he still smiled when he turned to Abigail and said, "Ms. Renee, this medicine is very effective in treating peanut allergy. Carry this with you from now on. When you accidentally eat peanuts, you can take one pill of this. It's very strong. So, one pill is enough. Don't take mor
'Was it just because I'm his lawfully wedded wife?'Abigail quietly asked herself that. She then gave an answer to herself very quickly.'It definitely was.'He always protected me and didn't want me to get hurt at all because I'm his wife.'Back then, Abigail had questions about many things. But now she had clear answers for all of them.When she went to find Emma in Neese on her day off during Easter, she was stopped by Ron when she was going back to Paridale. She could not escape. Xander, who should be in Paridale at that time, suddenly appeared in Neese with Paxton and saved her from Ron.At that time, she thought it was just a coincidence that Xander was in Neese too. She had never imagined that Xander purposely flew from Paridale to Neese for her.Now, Abigail finally realized that Xander must have known Ron had been monitoring Emma in Neese and knew what she said to Emma. That was why Xander purposely flew to Neese to rescue her.Abigail also realized that because she di
