Abigail followed Xander's stare to look into the distance.The Zane Tower was the landmark and the tallest building in Florivera. From their location, it seemed like the whole of Florivera was at their feet.It was an amazing feeling.But after a brief moment of that wonderful feeling, an endless sense of emptiness followed. Standing at the top alone came with a sense of loneliness and emptiness.Abigail guessed that Xander was probably feeling very empty and lonely.She slightly raised her head to look at him. "Mr. Zane, what are you thinking? Do you mind telling me?"Xander stared at her moving mouth. Her lower lip was red. And there was a clear injury. It was a mark left by him from unintentionally biting her too hard."I'm talking to you. Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something dirty on my face?" She thought, 'Can this man stop looking at me like he wants to do something inappropriate to me?'If this continues, I'll not be able to work properly.'Unexpected
He was disappointed in Abigail. He would usually kindly address her by her name. But just now he coldly addressed her as "Ms. Renee".Abigail knew he had misunderstood. She intentionally did not explain. "Am I not now?"Upon seeing her shamelessly say that, Keith was utterly disappointed in her. "You do know Mr. Zane is married. And yet, you still seduced him. Don't you have etiquette and integrity?"Abigail grinned as she said, "Why must it be that I seduced Mr. Zane and not the other way around?"Keith was extremely furious with her words. "You... How could you say such shameless things? It was dark in the elevator. But I wasn't blind."I saw with my own eyes that you threw yourself at Mr. Zane before he kissed you. How dare you say he seduced you? I really underestimated you before this."Keith's face turned red as he scolded Abigail.She was amused by his moral outrage. She wanted to continue teasing him. "You've been by Mr. Zane's side for many years. Have you seen anyone s
"M-Mr. Zane..." Keith was extremely frightened. He immediately slid under his desk.Abigail was blown away by his smooth movements.Xander looked at Keith who was under the desk. "Didn't you say you want to beat me? Why are you kneeling so quickly? You're such a loser!""I-I was just joking around with Abigail. I won't dare to beat you, Mr. Zane. Mr. Zane, you're a forgiving man. Don't stoop to my level..." Keith was so scared that his voice was shaking. But he gathered his courage to climb out from under the desk. He wanted to use the truth to argue with Xander.But when he was met with Xander's ferocious gaze, the courage that he had gathered just now suddenly disappeared. He said, "Mr. Zane, I admit I'm a coward. I'm very afraid of you. B-But... Abigail is a nice girl. She's our colleague too. We spend every day together. Please don't hurt her.""I know Abigail is a nice girl. Do I need you to tell me that?" While being stared at by Keith, Xander walked to Abigail's desk. He sa
Keith thought, 'It's possible!'The more Keith thought about it, the angrier he got.He was lost in his thoughts again. 'The two people who I spend time with every day actually became homewreckers who destroy each other's families.'Damn it!'It's so terrible!'I'm a horrible person too. I know they're the homewreckers and yet I still have to put on a smile to work with them as if nothing had happened.'Aaah...'I'm so pitiful!'In my next life, I'll not become Xander's assistant again. I want to become the boss.'While Keith was still lost in his thoughts, the three of them had already arrived at the conference room downstairs.When they arrived, most of the personnel from both companies were already there.Originally, personnel from both companies sat on opposite sides of the conference table. But when Abigail entered the room with Xander, everyone had gathered around. And there were a few ladies who were particularly friendly and excited.Frank Wood from the programming
Xander was not sure about the details of how the Yank family had helped his great-grandfather. He did not deliberately maintain this relationship either.But he would always remember Margaret's advice. If the Yank family ever needed his help, as long as it was not illegal, he would do his best to help them."Please have a seat, everyone," Xander said as he sat down. Abigail orderly handed the documents to Xander. She also marked the important points to note.Needless to say, Abigail was truly an outstanding assistant. Ever since she started working by Xander's side, he felt much more at ease than before.But he knew that the more at ease he felt, the more tired she must be.Before the meeting officially started, Declan from Supermoon Tech said, "It's Supermoon Tech's pleasure to be able to work with Mr. Zane and the Zane Corporation. We hope to receive Mr. Zane's and everyone's kind support in the future."Xander just remained silent. He immediately announced the start of the mee
There were two ladies who stayed behind. They had been waiting for the right moment to invite Ben for a meal. Unexpectedly, before they could ask him, he had already set his eyes on Abigail.Abigail smiled. "Mr. Yank, I'm sorry! I'm having dinner with my husband tonight."This news made Ben's facial expression change slightly. But he quickly regained his composure. "You... are married? When did you get married? Why didn't I hear about it? Why didn't you invite me to your wedding?"Abigail was still smiling slightly. She calmly responded, "Mr. Yank, this is the first time we've met. Isn't it normal that you didn't know I'm married?""Did you say that because you're still angry at me?" He thought, 'Yes. She must still be mad at me. She intentionally said that to anger me. Her reputation is ruined. There aren't many men who'd be willing to marry her.'Even those who are willing to marry her would be those old bachelors or those old men who couldn't find a woman to marry.'The two fe
Abigail always knew Xander was ruthless, even though he looked gentle and elegant.However, she used to think he would only show no mercy to his enemies and opponents and not be violent toward others.It was only at this moment that Abigail finally realized that Xander had been suppressing his true self all along. Now, he was like a sleeping beast that had awoken.He kissed Abigail forcefully. His desire for her was extremely strong.Abigail tried to push him away. But he was sturdy. Even though she had used all her strength, she could not move him at all.As Xander kissed her passionately, she felt overwhelmed by his actions. Part of her did not want this, but she could not resist the pleasure.Her mind gradually went blank as they kissed with their tongues. She found herself simply going along with his lead. And slowly, the intimacy between them felt perfectly right.She even forgot that he was punishing her. She instinctively stretched her hands to hug his lean waist tightly.
Xander felt the pain. But he did not let go of her. He just chuckled in his low, deep voice.Abigail was speechless.She thought, 'What's he laughing at?'How can he laugh at a time like this?'After a long time, Xander finally stopped kissing her.Although Abigail could not see her own lips, she knew her lips must look terrible and that she could not show them in public.She lost the kissing battle. So, she raised her leg and wanted to step on his foot. But she could not bear to do it. Although she was very angry at him, she still could not do anything that might hurt him even a little.Xander held her flushed face. His piercing gaze shone unwaveringly at her through his silver-rimmed glasses. He did not allow her to look away from him. "Tell me, what's the relationship between you and that man?"Abigail pursed her swollen, painful lips. She blinked her dreamy eyes as she gently said, "I told you I don't know him. Why did you ask me again if you had believed me?"Although she
