Chapter 101

"Alright, we'll be leaving then. Go back home," Margaret said."Goodbye." Abigail reluctantly watched as the car drove away and was unwilling to look away even after a good while.In fact, Abigail knew very well that the reason why her grandma would follow Grandma Margaret to Southcrest was not to spend off Nathan's money at all. It was that she did not want to trouble her for fear of affecting her work.Not too far away, inside an inconspicuous MPV sat Xander.Seeing how lost Abigail was, he lit up a cigarette before extinguishing it without taking a puff as he pushed open the door and walked over. "Abigail..."Having her name called out suddenly like that, Abigail was taken aback, and when she saw that it was him, she let out a smile while still feeling suspicious. "Mr. Zane, why are you here? Are you here to see the doctor?""Just passing by, you?"'Passing by again. I've run into him twice today, and this is just too coincidental, it beggars belief.''Could he be thinking o

Chapter 102

Being called a bastard by Abigail's friends, not only did Xander not refute that, he even felt that they were right. He was a proper right bastard.He, as a husband, not only did not provide his wife any help when she needed him the most, but he even caused her more trouble.If her friends were already so resentful of him, he could only wonder how much Abigail hated 'Nathan' in her heart.The three of them had totally ignored his presence and Xander had to speak up to make himself heard. "Abigail, are these your friends?"Abigail was speechless.'Shit! I got so engrossed with Felix and Mel I forgot that Xander was standing right here. Now he has heard all of my private matters!'It was only at this moment did Melody notice Xander and her eyes immediately lit up with stars. "Woah, handsome! Have we met before? Caterpie? He isn't Nathan, right? If he's Nathan, then just forget about the divorce. He's so handsome even if he's a useless piece of shit, taking him out as a companion wo

She laughed very happily, the kind from the depths of her heart, different from those practiced standard smiles during work hours.Oh, how Xander wished he could pull Felix's coat off and put his own onto Abigail, but his good sense stopped him from doing that.After all, seeing another man care about his wife while he could do nothing deeply frustrated him.Melody then asked, "Mr. Zane, were you driving?"Paxton was seated in the MPV but Xander shook his head. "No.""If you don't mind, feel free to take a ride in ours," Melody said.Even the cheapest of Xander's cars were at least in the millions, and Abigail was worried he would not be used to it and said, "Mr. Xander, how about you wait for your chauffeur to pick you up.""No need," Xander said as he got into Felix's car. He had chosen the co-driver seat, and that would prevent Abigail from sitting beside Felix.Melody got into the car next and Abigail immediately grabbed onto her as she whispered, "Mel, he's Xander Zane, a

'If her words meant nothing, then whose does?'Seeing that Abigail was unwilling to answer the question, Xander could tell what she was thinking, but he still insisted on an answer from her. "I'm asking you now."Unable to watch his darling Caterpie being 'bullied', Felix turned around and glanced at Xander. "Mr. Zane, whether your wife will forgive you or not is up to your wife, whatever my Caterpie here says means nothing in the grand scheme of things."Xander's sharp brow raised a little as an incisive gloom appeared in the eyes beneath his glasses. "Your Caterpie?"'Abigail is my wife, since when did she become another's?'It was an enmity that only men could see, and Felix could tell that Xander was a very dangerous person. "Yeah, my Caterpie. We have known each other since we were in diapers."Mel, who was so enchanted by Xander's good looks, did not even sense the tension in the air as she leaned over and asked, "Mr. Zane, do you want to know how Caterpie got her nickname?

Abigail still wanted to stop him, but Felix was faster as he ordered the soup and then ordered some other dishes that they liked.After he was done, he handed the tablet over to Xander. "Mr. Zane, have a look at what you like?"Abigail wanted to take the tablet but Felix refused to hand it to her. "I've already ordered your favorites. Let Mr. Zane see what he likes."Xander was a picky eater. He did not eat offals, nor this nor that, and the soup restaurant only had a select few dishes, and there was nothing he liked after a glance.He put down the tablet and said, "I'll eat whatever Abigail eats."In any case, his purpose here was not to eat, but to know Abigail better.Felix then smiled. "I ordered quite a bit, so don't be a stranger later, Mr. Zane."After ordering their food, the waiter came with the condiments. As the three of them were regulars here, the server knew them very well and had already come bringing their favorite condiment mixed with coriander.These were all

However, Xander did not care at all, and as if he was in rivalry with Felix, the two kept fighting one another to fill Abigail's plate and soon it was piling up so high that she could not even finish them.Abigail felt that the two men were acting really strange, but she could not put her fingers on what it was.It was until Felix proudly threw this line out. "I've taken care of my Caterpie for almost twenty years now. Our bond is as deep as the ocean, and isn't something that can be compared by just serving her food."Abigail almost choked on her food when she heard that.Felix and Melody were her childhood friends and Xander her boss, it was natural that the three of them were far more intimate but that was not something one would tell Xander in his face.Abigail silently nudged Felix and the latter too realized that he had gone overboard, so he turned to serve Melody instead. "Mel, eat more and fill your belly."It was only then did Melody, who was ignored all this while, pout

Unbeknownst to Abigail, the star in her inappropriate thoughts had been following them in a car behind theirs.After they safely returned to their neighborhood, Xander said to Paxton, "To Southcrest Residence.""Yes, sir," said Paxton.Xander asked, "What's a Fog City?""I'll look it up immediately," answered Paxton."There's no need."Xander took out his phone and sent Malcolm a WhatsApp message: [What's a Fog City?]After he sent the message, he quickly got a reply from Malcolm.[Xander, I've never seen you in a relationship over these years. Don't tell me you really are interested in men?]Xander frowned and replied: [Hah...]Malcolm sent another text: [You should be interested in places like Tipsy Belles, not Fog City.]However, Xander also did not know what kind of place "Tipsy Belles" was.He typed a few words: [Explain properly.]Malcolm replied: [To put it nicely, The Fog is a goldmine for the ladies. To put it coarsely, it's Florivera's most famous host club. How

"Thank you, Grandma Cassandra! From now on, stay here and focus on getting better. Don't worry about Abigail; I'll take good care of her." After Xander got Cassandra's affirmation, the weight on his chest was finally lifted.Margaret said, "Cassandra, you can't forgive him this easily."Cassandra laughed."It's not up to you and me to decide. Let the kids sort out their own matters. Why worry so much? We don't have many more years to live anyway.""Alright. The younger generation will do all right on their own; we won't interfere," said Margaret. She turned to Xander and continued, "But if you dare mistreat Abigail the slightest bit again, I'll be the first to kill you.""Don't you two worry. It definitely won't happen in the future."After Xander bade the two old ladies goodbye, he hurried back to Florivera.On the way back, Paxton finally noticed how pale Xander looked."Mr. Zane, you don't look so good."Xander pressed his abdomen as he closed his eyes and leaned back in th

She did not know Xander's gaze remained on her the entire time. When the throw blanket covering her slid off, he gently placed it back onto her.They arrived at Valtara over two hours later and went straight to Parkview. Parkview was an incredibly high-end multi-functional area in Valtara that integrated business, leisure, and pleasure.The Zane Corporation staff occupied five villas. Naturally, Abigail and Keith stayed in the same villa as Xander.Each villa had a total of three floors. Xander stayed on the top floor, while Abigail and Keith each had a room on the second floor.Right after Abigail placed her luggage in her room, she got a call from Xander."Abigail, put your luggage away and come with me to meet someone.""Who are we meeting, Mr. Zane? I need to see if there's anything I need to prepare."Since the conference participants were all leading figures in the field, the meeting between company leaders and leaders were all scheduled. However, Xander was not scheduled

Xander held Abigail's hand and bowed at Alfred."Thank you, Mr. Bianco. This is my wife, Abigail. Abigail, this is Mr. Bianco, my close friend and also my mentor in life."'The two have an over 60-year age gap but can still become close friends. This really is an enviable friendship,' thought Abigail.When faced with such a beautiful friendship, the embarrassment Abigail had from holding Xander's hand disappeared. She said sweetly, "Hello, Mr. Bianco!""Pleased to meet you, kiddo!" Alfred was nearly 100 years old, and Abigail was much younger than his granddaughter. In his eyes, Abigail's age was of a child's. "If you don't mind, you're welcome to frequent my house in the future," said Alfred."Pleased to meet you too, Mr. Bianco!" Abigail took out her hand from Xander's and shook Alfred's hand. Just as she retracted her hand, Xander held it again.Abigail was speechless.'There's no need to constantly hold hands even if we're really husband and wife, right? Wouldn't doing so se
