Chapter 651

Xander was amused by her cute and candid response."You don't have to get me a gift in return. Maybe you could get me something with my card?" he said.Abigail replied miserably, "But I don't want to keep spending your money. I can earn money myself. Before I met you, I actually did pretty well on my own."Xander had always known that Abigail could do well even if he were not around.He thought to himself, 'The fact that she could pass multiple rounds of selections among the thousands of competitors and end up as my assistant has already proved her abilities. She can afford to buy her own house, has good looks, and has many men pursuing her. I'm dispensable to her.'Regardless, knowing all this is one thing, but hearing Abigail saying them aloud is another.'He subconsciously tightened his grip on her hand."But I need you to spend my money. I need to know that I'm needed and not dispensable to you..." said Xander.Abigail could not stand it when he spoke to her in such a tone.

Xander said, "Call me hubby..."Abigail refused. "I don't want to."It would more or less be a dilemma for Abigail to call her immediate boss her husband. Xander could only compromise and say, "Then you can call me Nathan.""Nathan. Nathan." Abigail thought this nickname was much better. "Where are we going now?"Xander drove the car up the highway. "You'll know when we get there.""Your surname is Zane, but why are you also called Nathan Hart?"Xander turned his head to look at her before saying, "It's a long story. Are you willing to listen to me talk about it?"Abigail nodded vigorously. "Of course."Although he had been her boss for a year and her husband for two years, Abigail still knew far too little about him. She wanted to learn more about him, including his childhood, which he was unwilling to share with anyone.Xander was thrilled because Abigail was willing to listen to him. He slowly started to speak. "The Zane Corporation used to be a tailor shop that made hand-t

Abigail did not know what came over her. Just as she heard that grandfather chose to take his life because he did not want to cause more issues for Grandma, it was like her heart was bleeding. It was so painful that tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes."Abigail..." Xander gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with his fingers. "If something's wrong, just tell me, okay?""I'm upset..." Abigail stared at him with watery eyes. "I just think grandfather shouldn't have done that."Xander comforted her. "It's all in the past. You don't need to be hung up on it.""It's not in the past. Because many people face the same problem. We should bring them up then proceed to overcome them." Abigail was not someone who liked to split hairs on issues. Still, she was taking this incident particularly seriously."Did grandfather truly believe this decision would be good for Grandma? Didn't he realize he'd be leaving grandma alone and that Grandma might've been better off dead then

"Losing grandfather and Grandma was like losing their skeletal structure for the Zane Corporation. Soon, they were under the control of someone else. At the same time, Nova was merely a pawn everyone used to control the company," Xander said. "That man's incompetence allowed the people who were eyeing Zane Corporation to take the opportunity to make a move. They corroborated and made the company teeter on the edge."Seeing that he was powerless to change anything on his own, Nova married the daughter of the Elder family, Jane. He borrowed the influence of the Elder family to help him take back control of the Zane Corporation."After the Zane and Elder family formed an alliance through marriage, it definitely brought him a lot of support toward his career, and he slowly gained control of some actual power in the company."I was born during such a sensitive period. Hence, Grandma announced to the public that I was called Xander Zane to guarantee my safety while I was actually using th

"Why did you think of using the identity of Nathan Hart to invest in this project?" Abigail asked. In fact, she wanted to ask him how he had such a good eye for such things.Sunset Cliff Hotel debuted with its magnificent looks, lavish hardware, facilities, and top-tier service. It had already continuously topped the charts for luxurious hotels worldwide in all aspects. Not long before, Abigail even saw an online voting event for the hotel the people wanted to visit most. Sunset Cliff Hotel was still placed at the top of that chart.Many people wanted to come to Sunset Cliff Hotel for a vacation, but the people who could actually get in were much fewer. There were so many people around the world, while the Sunset Cliff Hotel only had a total of ten rooms. They can only serve a maximum of twenty people every day.Sunset Cliff Hotel had a rule. They would not accommodate single guests and only host couples or married spouses. At first, some people would look for loopholes. One man and

Not long after, a glass hotel that allowed people to have a 360-degree view to watch the magnificent view appeared at that spot. "You're so dope!" That answer sounded awesome to Abigail's ears. Even if it was just investing in this project, it would earn him a lot of money. On her end, she felt annoyingly inferior compared to him.Xander was confused and asked, "I'm dope?"Abigail replied, "Not dope as in drugs, but dope as in cool person.""What's dope?" Xander was not even twenty-nine years old yet, but he was already living like he was seventy or eighty. His work and lifestyle did not give him much free time, and most of his rare free time was spent reading books. He almost never surfed the internet, so naturally he did not know about such internet slang.Abigail explained to him, "What you're doing now is called "being dope". You unintentionally revealed that you were the boss of this establishment and even talked about the idea you came up with like it was nothing."Xander

Abigail was speechless, 'Does this man really know what peeking means? Since he knows it's peeking, why'd he have to expose it and embarrass me on purpose?'Abigail turned away angrily, refusing to pay him any more attention.Xander continued driving the sightseeing car as if nothing happened. He even acted as a tour guide, "The road we're currently on is called the 'Blissful Union Avenue', and the flowers on both sides of the road are called Phalaenopsis. Mason Harper, the manager of Sunset Cliff Hotel we just met, named both the road and the flower."The scenic road was well-constructed, and the Phalaenopsis on both sides bloomed beautifully. It was indeed very picturesque. However, Abigail was still angry, so she casually responded nonchalantly without looking away from the flowers and plants outside, "Oh."Xander thought she liked these views, so he continued vividly explaining, "At first, I didn't understand why he'd planted these flowers. He told me that Phalaenopsis symboliz

Chapter 658

What Abigail had not expected was that Xander would actually take her to a hotel for their first date. Then again, they were legally married, and it was common for a husband and wife to have intimate moments, after all. Abigail understood that very well that it was an inevitable part of their relationship. She had even joked with Melody that she was eager to engage in sexual activities with him.However, now that the actual moment was approaching, she still felt nervous, "Mr. Zane... H-How about we go and watch the sunset now?"Xander thought of correcting her upon hearing her habitually calling him "Mr. Zane" again. However, the words stuck in his throat.''It's not easy to change a habit so quickly, especially one that she's developed over a year. I'll give her some time to adjust gradually.'"Our room has the best view of the sunset," He took the remote control and opened the curtains.Looking straight ahead, they were greeted by the boundless sea and an orange sunset on the ho

After taking the photo, Xander handed the phone back to Abigail. Just as the phone returned to Abigail's hands, Melody sent a message in their group chat. [Is this the Sunset Cliff Hotel?][Yes.][Mr. Zane's quite impressive. He took you to such a romantic place on your first date and got a hotel room. It seems there'll be no way for you to escape his clutches tonight. No other advice from me, I just hope you two have a happy and enjoyable night~]Abigail was at a loss for words, 'Am I out of my mind? Why did I take photos and share them in the group chat at a time like this?'Melody continued, [By the way, remember to be careful and use protection. You'll regret it if you get pregnant before being able to fully explore the pleasures of intimacy, heh.]Abigail was even more speechless. She was already a bit nervous, and her anxiety continued to rise with Melody's words. It overwhelmed her brain, making it impossible for her to think straight.Xander asked, "What'd your grandma

"That's great. You'd better get to it quickly. Nathan, it's all up to you. Abigail's a shy girl, so you need to take the initiative," Cassandra advised him, and ended the video call.Abigail felt numb all over. Xander noticed her nervousness and assured her, "It's okay. If you don't want to have children, we won't. It's our life and our choice. Their opinions don't matter."Xander's voice was as deep and comforting as usual, putting her at ease. Abigail looked up and met his smiling eyes behind the silver-rimmed glasses, saying, "I-I do want to have children, just not so early. I want to wait a few more years.""Yeah, we'll do as you wish," Xander said as he reached out and gently held the back of her head. He pushed her head toward him ever so slightly.Abigail closed her eyes subconsciously. She felt his breath getting closer and closer about a fraction of a second away from kissing her. She was so nervous that her eyelids twitched uncontrollably. Her heartbeat raced, thumping in
