Melody did not know there was a conflict between Abigail and Xander. She rolled down the window and excitedly greeted Xander, "Mr. Zane, did you come to pick up Abigail?"Xander nodded. He then looked at Abigail who was sitting behind Melody.Melody said, "Stinky Caterpie, your man is here to pick you up. Quickly go back with him."Felix stopped the car. "Do you want to get out and talk to him?"Abigail shook her head.So, Felix drove the car into the underground parking lot.Melody asked, "Did you two fight?"Abigail answered, "No..."Melody questioned, "Why did you two fight?"Abigail replied, "I said we didn't."Melody said, "Look at you. You didn't even greet him when he waited there for you. And yet, you told me you two didn't fight."Abigail did not respond. When they got back to their apartment, Abigail immediately went to the window and looked down. Xander was still standing in the same spot. He seemed like he was smoking another cigarette.She wondered, 'When I fir
Xander stretched his hand out and carefully grabbed her soft hand. "Abigail, after you left, I seriously reflected on it. It was ill-considered of me when I tried to force you to stay and move your belongings without your consent. I won't do that again in the future. Please trust me!"Abigail lifted her head slightly. She then met his sincere gaze under the silver-rimmed glasses. She thought, 'I believe he won't intentionally hurt me.'However, people act on impulse. And in those moments, one might lose control and act irrationally.'Just like what happened to Xander in the morning. If he truly wanted to hurt me, I wouldn't be able to escape. He was just carried away by his emotions. But he came back to his senses when he saw my tears.'Xander was a little panicked when he saw her remain silent. "Abigail..."Abigail's heart softened completely. "Have you had dinner?"Xander shook his head. "No."Abigail said, "You know your stomach isn't well. And yet, you still didn't eat on ti
"I've prepared." Xander took his phone out to make a call. After a short while, someone delivered a huge suitcase.The suitcase was filled to the brim. Not only were there clothes but there were also various daily necessities. It was very comprehensive. It was as if he intended to stay here permanently.Xander opened the suitcase and started unpacking. His clothes took up half of Abigail's wardrobe. And his daily necessities took up half of her dressing table.After a while, his things were all over the room, as if he had been living here for a long time.Abigail was speechless.After he was done unpacking, Xander took an outfit and said, "I'm sweaty. I'll take a shower now."He went to take a shower after he said that.Not long after, he went back to Abigail's room in casual wear.He looked very relaxed and showed no sign of feeling uncomfortable about staying at someone else's place.Abigail was left speechless again.She thought, 'I feel like he's taking over my territory!
Xander asked, "Do I have to wash them?"Abigail was speechless.She complained in her mind, 'He's a germaphobe!'I've never even seen him wear the same jacket for two days. How can he wear the same underwear for two days?'What should I do?'I suddenly feel quite repulsed by him!'Abigail suddenly heard him say, "I just throw away my underwear after wearing it once. I need to wear a new one every day. If you don't believe me, you can check for yourself."Abigail said, "I trust you!"She whispered in her thought, 'Well, I clearly don't know much about rich people.'I've never experienced the way wealthy people live.'Abigail then sat down at the dressing table and started her skin care routine.By the time she was done with it, Xander was already lying on the bed.Her bed was five feet wide. And Xander was quite big. So, after he had lay down, Abigail felt like there was not much space left for her.She slowly approached the bed. As soon as she sat down, Xander stretched hi
These injuries were something that she left on his body. He did not want to get rid of them. He wished these injuries could last as long as possible.Abigail said, "Do you think you're invulnerable? You always think that you're fine. But in fact, your body isn't even as strong as mine."Abigail was quite petite compared to Xander. So, he could not understand how she could daringly use the word "strong".Xander said, "I'm sleepy. Let's sleep now."The bed was small. So, they were sleeping close to each other. However, neither of them had any inappropriate thoughts. They just slept through the night without disturbing each other.The next day, they woke up very early.The bathroom was small. Two of them squeezed in together to brush their teeth and wash their faces. Despite their height difference, when both their faces reflected in the bathroom mirror, they looked particularly well-matched.Abigail accidentally got some toothpaste foam on her nose. Xander casually stretched his h
Abigail thought, 'Why, when a man and woman are together in a way others don't like, does everyone naturally blame the woman? Why do they think the woman must have tricked the man? Both are responsible. If you're going to blame someone, blame both of them. Why blame just the woman?'Luna's face turned bright red with anger. "How can you say such a shameless thing?" she yelled.Abigail did not have any close friends at the company. Luna was the person she liked the most, but not enough to tell her everything. 'Since Luna says I'm being shameless, I'll be shameless then,' she thought, and turned to leave.Luna was desperate. "Aren't you scared that I'll share the video and show everyone at the company what you really did?" she threatened.Abigail turned back with a faint smile. "If you wanted to share it, you would've already. What do you want?" she asked calmly.Luna was surprised by how calm Abigail was. "Are you and Mr. Zane hiding something? Did he make you do something? If so,
Xander grabbed a napkin and wiped the leftover pancake crumbs from the corner of Abigail's mouth. "I didn't know," he said."Why did you pick me out of the three candidates, then?" Abigail asked."Maybe it was a connection at first sight, or maybe your name sounded familiar," Xander answered.Abigail was not happy with this answer. "Was it not because of my skills?"Xander looked at her grumpy face and felt sorry for her. "Silly girl, just by being one of the choices for me to pick, you showed your skills. I picked you from the three people because I liked you best. This year, you've proved that choosing you was the right thing to do.""Did you like the way I look? Did you pick me because I'm pretty?" Abigail asked."Being pretty can be a skill too," Xander replied."I'm talking to you about something serious. Don't make jokes," Abigail said."Is someone saying you can't do the job?" Xander asked."I'm worried that if people learn about us being together, they'll think I got t
Abigail worked hard to ignore the strange looks people were giving her and focused on her job.Even though she had not been at work for a few days, she and Xander were still a great team. Seeing how well they worked together, Keith thought their relationship was like a match made in heaven. It was true not only for their personal lives but also for their excellent working relationship.A long time ago, Keith had to pass lots of tests to become Xander's assistant. When he first started, he had trouble keeping up and made some small mistakes. But the mistakes were not very bad, and Xander let him stay. After a while, Keith got really good at his job.Abigail was different. She was great from the very first day she worked with Xander, and she did not make any mistakes for a whole year. Keith thought, 'She's so good at her job, and she's even married to Mr. Zane! Other girls can't even come close.'As Keith was lost in thought, Xander's phone rang really loud. Xander picked it up and h
