Chapter 201

"Your husband? Others might think you're close to him if you call him that affectionately, " said Melody sarcastically as she clicked her tongue. "I'd really want to see what that cheapskate husband of yours gifted you after you've been married for so long. I hope it's not some cheap knock-off from a flea market somewhere. I'd roll on the floor laughing.""You don't have to be so mean, you wench. I could just open it up and let you have a look," said Abigail as she opened the gift in front of Melody.There was a more intricately designed box within the box that was gifted and a beautiful necklace was placed inside it. The necklace had a star-shaped centerpiece that looked like it was made from diamond...Abigail took it out and rubbed it in her fingers. "What do you think, Mel? Does it look like it's made of glass or diamond?"Melody took it into her hands and had a close-up look at it. "The workmanship looks good, but there's no brand logo on it. It's not an internationally recogn

Chapter 202

Nathan's bank card was clipped together with the marriage certificate, but since the marriage certificate disappeared, so did the card. Besides, Abigail would not want to take advantage of him since they had not lived together yet though they were husband and wife.Abigail replied: [Keep the money you earned to yourself instead of letting me spend it. I can earn my own income and my salary is higher than most other people. I personally believe a healthy marriage doesn't need the couple to financially depend on each other but to work hard together to earn money and in improving their family life. If it so happens that one of us lost our job, the other would still have the ability to take care of the family.]Nathan responded: [Yes. I agree with you.]Abigail sent another message: [I'll keep this necklace for now and will return it to you when we meet up next.]Nathan replied: [?]Abigail retorted: [We have not reconciled, so stop thinking gifting would do anything. Enough talk, I'm

Chapter 203

When his own wife was mentioned, Xander immediately turned his attention to Abigail, noticing her pace was a little weird. He gasped when he noticed her heels were bloodied when he looked downward.'Abigail doesn't have anyone to carry her so she must be forcing herself to walk. She must be in pain with every step she takes, but her expression isn't showing it. How stubborn yet determined is this lady!'Xander wished he could carry her so she would not have to suffer, but his status prohibited him from doing so and he slowed down his pace so she could try her best to catch up to him.Not waiting for Xander's reply nor understanding what his thoughts were, Javor continued, "Mr. Zane, is it too much trouble to mention your wife?""It's no trouble at all, my wife doesn't come from high society, but she's a good woman. She's a little stubborn, hardworking, and has her own pride. She deserves all the praise in the world," replied Xander as he observed Abigail's situation from the corner

Chapter 204

When Abigail returned to the cubicle, everyone had already found their own seats save for an empty one on Xander's right. She had no choice but to meekly sit down beside Xander.The dishes were served as soon as she took her seat. Abigail was tasked to order the dishes that were served and she ordered them based on the Goldstein couple's preferences in mind and had the restaurant prepare them beforehand as Kate was a South Floriveran and the restaurant did not normally have South Floriveran cuisine prepared.The delightful taste of her hometown cuisine, especially in a Florivera specialty restaurant, made Kate look at Abigail in a new light. "Mr. Zane, your executive assistant seems to be quite an attentive lady."Xander nodded. "Yes, she's very capable."Abigail politely responded, "Thank you for the praise, Mrs. Goldstein."Kate suddenly came up with a difficult question. "Mr. Zane, who do you think is better? Your wife or your assistant?"Abigail was silent. 'My gosh, why am I

Chapter 205

Abigail was so glad that her eyebrows arched. "Thank you on behalf of all female employees that have suffered the torturous high heels, Mr. Zane!"Xander could change company policy at the flick of a finger and should not have a need to worry over such a small issue, yet he changed the policy when he saw Abigail get hurt from wearing high heels. This made Abigail so surprised that this boss of hers was such a godsend.Xander could not understand how such a small issue could make her so happy when she did not even want the house he wanted to gift her, though he felt relieved when he saw her this happy. "Thank my wife instead of me."Knowing he was married, Abigail said, "Then I'll have to thank Mrs. Zane for that!"Kate admired young people like Xander. "Young men nowadays are more reliable than you are, Javor. Look at Mr. Zane. He doesn't only dote on his wife, but is also considerate of his employees."Xander politely replied, "Thank you for the praise, Mrs. Goldstein, but I'm st

Chapter 206

There were four people in the car. The driver was focused on driving, and Abigail and Keith were chatting on their phones. Xander felt like he was being isolated in another world by them.Xander thought, 'My two assistants are sitting in the same car as me. But they're chatting on their phones. And Abigail is even smiling so happily.' Xander slightly furrowed his dashing eyebrows as he said, "Keith!"His voice was a little cold. Keith, who was paying full attention to chatting on WhatsApp, shuddered. He said, "Mr. Zane..."Xander raised his hand to look at his watch. His gaze under the silver-rimmed glasses was frosty as he said, "Give me today's investigation report half an hour later."Keith only had half an hour. Which meant he had to get the report ready before they arrived at the company."Okay." Although half an hour was too rushed for Keith, he did not dare to raise any objection.Keith replied to Abigail's message: [Abigail, I just said Mr. Zane's mood was good. But now h

Douglas spoke again, "Check the car. If there's no problem, this car will be yours after we get the handover procedures done.""I only have the right to use this car. Why would it be mine?" Abigail was well aware that the executives only had the right to use the car given by Zane Corporation. The company would take the car back when the employees resigned.Douglas replied, "Doesn't matter whom this car belongs to. It's fine as long as you can drive it."Abigail responded, "You're right."After checking the car and completing the handover procedures, only then did Abigail notice that both the motor vehicle registration certificate and vehicle driving license were registered under her personal information. The car was not under the Zane Corporation's name.It should not be the case. Abigail asked, "Mr. Clayton, why is this car registered under my name?"Douglas explained, "This is a change the company made to retain talented people. As long as you work well in the company, not only

Chapter 208

She thought, 'Xander doesn't like to talk much. He probably didn't tell Nathan about this tiny matter.'She quickly typed: [Nathan, thank you! The shoes fit very well and they're very comfortable. But how did you know about my shoe size?]Nathan replied: [Grandma told me that you wear heels to work. And you always abrade your heels. So, I thought of buying you a pair of shoes. Grandma told me about your shoe size too.]His explanation was reasonable. He even explained the unasked question that Abigail had.Abigail texted: [I appreciate your concern.]Nathan responded: [I also heard from Grandma that you bought an apartment unit. I have a friend that's quite good at interior design. Do you want the number?]Abigail was looking for an interior designer. And Nathan was just recommending her one. This was a timely help.Abigail replied: [Sure. But whether or not the designer is your friend, I won't accept it if the design isn't good.]Nathan answered her with an [Okay] before sendi

Chapter 209

Xander thought, 'Even that ugly, foolish Keith can become Abigail's alternative. Why can't I?'Keith, who was completely clueless, was suddenly summoned to the CEO's office by an internal call. He asked, "Mr. Zane, are you looking for me?"Xander stared at him without speaking. His gaze which was blazing with anger made Keith feel a chill down his spine. He asked again, "Mr. Zane, is there something wrong with my report?"Keith thought, 'He troubled me twice after I said his mood was good. I think I shouldn't speak carelessly from now on.'He had a few days off. And he did not make any mistakes when he worked today. Keith could not figure out what he did that made his boss unhappy.After a long silence, Xander faintly spoke, "Why are you still single?"The boss who never asked his employees about their personal matters suddenly showed concern about his worker's private matters. Keith suddenly felt something was not right. He answered, "Mr. Zane, I like to be single."Xander size

Chapter 210

Abigail came to the CEO's office. She respectfully said, "Mr. Zane, are you looking for me?"Xander put out the cigarette that he just lit up. He had not even smoked it. He asked, "Have you come up with any ideas about what type of shoes our female employees should wear during formal occasions?"Abigail did not expect him to actually remember this matter that was so insignificant to him. She was very touched as she said, "Mr. Zane, thank you for showing so much concern for the female employees!"It was not easy for women to be in the workplace. Many companies would even impose harsh requirements on female workers. It was extremely rare that a male superior with so much power would consider the difficulties faced by female employees.The more Abigail spent time working with Xander, the more she felt that the rumors about him were nonsense. She thought, 'He's such a nice person. How could he possibly be cold-hearted?'She immediately took her phone out and showed him a picture. She
