Chapter 971

Abigail asked curiously, "Can we create something new and exciting?""Absolutely," the old lady said while glancing at Xander. "Young man, your wife is so beautiful; there must be many men out there who are attracted to her. You have to cherish her, learn to be romantic, or else someone else might win her over, and you'll be left crying."Abigail said, "I'm his wife. Nobody's gonna take me away."The old lady shook her head, disappointed. "Dear, it's okay to think that, but you shouldn't let him know. Otherwise, he'll stop appreciating you and won't care about you."Abigail said, "He's not that kind of person."The old lady shook her head. She thought Abigail was naive and turned her attention to Xander. "You heard that, right, young man? Your wife is so good to you, trusts you so much; you have to be worthy of her trust. Just because you married a beautiful woman doesn't mean she can't leave; you can't just do the bare minimum. And you, young lady, don't hesitate to spend money o

Except for death, nothing or no one could ever split them up.Abigail held onto his arm again. "Nathan."Xander replied, "Yes?"Abigail said again, "Mr. Zane."Xander remained silent.Abigail asked, "Why aren't you responding?"Xander replied, "I don't want to hear those two words."Abigail asked, "Then what do you want to hear?"Xander grinned. "Just call me 'Hubby'."Abigail was speechless and thought to herself, 'He's teasing me again, right in the middle of the day.'Just when Xander thought she would not say it, he heard her soft, sweet voice. "Hubby."Xander stretched out his arm, and even while holding a bag, he pulled Abigail into his arms. He hugged her, kissed her, and softly said, "Wifey."Felix and Lucia had been home for quite a while. Abigail and Xander just arrived. When the door opened, Malcolm, lying in the living room, started complaining, "You invited us over for dinner, and we got so hungry we started cooking ourselves. You two are just getting back."A

Chapter 973

'In such a short time, Xander has become willing to share a small apartment with Abigail and doesn't mind the smell of cooking fumes in the kitchen. Is love really that powerful?' Malcolm was puzzled. He had been in relationships before but never experienced this kind of change that Xander underwent so quickly. 'Could it be linked to how good someone is at their job?'Malcolm's gaze was fixed on Xander. He doubted that the man in the kitchen, who was following his wife around, was the Xander he knew. The Xander he was familiar with never paid attention to women; he even said that marriage was just a way for a man and a woman to legally satisfy their physical needs. It was surprising that he had become so devoted to his wife in such a short time. Usually, that kind of change was unlikely. Malcolm wondered if Abigail had somehow enchanted him."Malcolm, what are you looking at?"Lucia's voice brought Malcolm's attention back. He looked away. "Just looking around," Malcolm replied."R

Chapter 974

In a flash, Lucia felt as though she had fallen into an icy cave, struggling desperately to surface as the cold water engulfed her, threatening to swallow her whole. At that critical moment, she heard Abigail's gentle voice. "Malcolm, Lucia, you two are in charge of chopping the onions." The warmth in Abigail's voice pulled Lucia back to reality, as if sunlight had gradually melted the ice around her.Malcolm's attention was instantly diverted by Abigail's words. "My hands are too valuable to be chopping onions."Abigail did not care; she placed the bowl of onions on the coffee table. "Everyone is busy. You can't be idle. So you'll chop the onions." Abigail then turned to Lucia and whispered, "Do you know how to chop onions? If not, I can teach you."Malcolm was speechless. 'Why do I have to chop onions, while Lucia gets such gentle treatment? Why does everyone treat me differently? Today, I'm clearly the most exhausted person, yet in the end, I'm still the one being bullied. I'm so

Chapter 975

Being made to chop onions while everyone picked on him, Malcolm said with a frown, "Your double standard is pretty clear, isn't it, Abigail?"Abigail replied, "Do you have a problem with that?"Malcolm retorted, "Would I dare to have a problem?"Abigail shrugged. "It's good that you don't."Malcolm said, "If you all keep picking on me, I'll just leave." However, nobody paid any more attention to him. He did not really want to leave anyway. After all, he had nothing to do at home, his new girlfriend went to Valtara, and she could not just fly back to hang out with him.At that moment, the doorbell rang again. Abigail quickly ran to open it because she knew it must be Margaret and Esther. When she opened the door, she found not only Margaret and Esther but also a group of people, each carrying a beautifully wrapped gift box.Abigail asked, surprised, "Grandma, I just invited you for dinner, why did you bring gifts?""Since you moved to a new apartment, of course, I have to bring g

Esther said, "It's great that you want to work, and I totally support that. I just want to make sure you don't feel pressured living with Abigail. Even if she can't support you, remember, I'm here too. I have a stable job and earn a good income, so don't worry about money."Lucia asked, "What do I need to know for your comic convention job? Can I do it?"Esther replied, "You just need to know a lot about different comics. We've read tons together, so you're definitely qualified."Lucia started to say, "So I—"Esther interrupted, "Totally, you can do it. Come with me tomorrow and we'll see."Lucia said, "Alright."Esther suggested, "Let's go help Abigail open gifts and see what Grandma got her."Lucia said, "It's obvious that Margaret really cares about my sister."Esther replied, "Ever since Grandma got a granddaughter-in-law, my brother and I feel like we're just foundlings, and only Abigail is her real grandchild."Margaret overheard and responded, "What do you mean foundlin

Chapter 977

Malcolm clicked his tongue a few times. "I want some chicken too. Can you debone it for me, Xander?"Xander replied, dryly, "Don't you have hands?"Malcolm, ignoring Xander's sarcasm, turned to Abigail. "Did you hurt your hand or something, Abigail?"Abigail glared at him. "Can't you just eat your food, Malcolm?"Malcolm, trying to act innocent, said, "I want chicken, but I don't know how to debone it. Can you help me?"Felix always hated seeing anyone bully Abigail. He picked up a piece of chicken, quickly removed the bones, and placed it on Malcolm's plate. "Here you go."Malcolm looked at the chicken on his plate with disgust. "You're a grown man, and you used your fork to serve me food. Your saliva is definitely on the fork and the food. It's like indirectly kissing you. Aren't you grossed out?"Felix replied, "Oh, so you do realize it's not great to share forks, right?"Malcolm shot Felix an annoyed look, decided to ignore him, and reached for some food with his fork. Feli

Malcolm said, "Don't be fooled by her cleverness, Margaret."Margaret replied, "The Zane family business is vast, and it's beneficial that Abigail is smart enough to help manage it alongside Xander."Malcolm asked, "So you believe everything she does is right?"Margaret nodded. "Yes."Malcolm did not know what to say next.Abigail said, "Could you two fake a fight a little better? Don't insult our intelligence like that."Malcolm replied, "We're really arguing, not pretending."This remark was obviously ironic, and Susanna could not help but burst into laughter.Malcolm asked, "Even you want to make fun of me, Susanna?"Susanna said with a smile, "I'm not laughing at you. I just think it's nice to see you young people gathered together, chatting and being noisy. It makes the apartment so lively."Susanna had been working for the Zane family for many years, often guarding Xander's big house all by herself, with no one to talk to. So, it was rare for her to have such a lively d

Chapter 979

Abigail nodded. "I love it. This is the first property I bought on my own."Xander ruffled her hair. "In the future, you can have anything you want, even many properties if that's what you desire."Abigail smiled. "I moved to Florivera when I was not even eighteen. So many years have passed, and I now have my own apartment here and can settle down." She sighed, "But my most cherished grandma has passed away."Xander said, "Look up."Obediently, Abigail looked up at the sky; the weather was nice, and she could see a few scattered stars. "What am I looking for?"Xander said, "See the brightest star? That could be your grandma. She might've turned into a star and is watching over you from the sky."Abigail knew it was not true, but she could not help but hope that her grandmother could really be a star. That way, whenever she missed her, all she would have to do is look up to see her grandmother. She softly called his name, "Nathan..."Xander responded, "Hmm?"Abigail said, "Tomor

Chapter 980

Abigail picked up the little guy, who was surprisingly heavy for his size. As she lifted him, he leaned in and gave Abigail a big smooch on the cheek."I really like you, ma'am.""I really like you too."Abigail carried the little boy toward the property management office, totally forgetting that Xander was still behind her. The boy sensed that the man behind them was not too happy about him."Ma'am, the man behind us doesn't seem to like me."Xander was speechless, thinking, 'Why does she get to be called ma'am, and I'm just "the man"?'Abigail suddenly remembered that she was supposed to be walking with Xander. She had been so distracted by the adorable boy that she forgot about Xander, which explained his annoyed expression. She approached Xander, carrying the boy."I'm sorry. This little guy is just too cute," she admitted. "I totally forgot about you for a moment." As she continued talking, Xander's expression grew even more irritated. "Don't be mad. Smile, so you don't sca
