100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Fourteen…

~~*****~~

[ Country F: Night time…]

Since there was an eight hours time difference between Country F and Country M, it was already dawn in Country M so Ethan was probably asleep by now. 7:00 pm in Country F was equivalent to 3:00 am in Country M.

"Will you not inform Ethan about this?" Abigail asked Nathan. She was peeling fruits for him. She stayed by his side, not leaving him.

At moments like this, she had to show her concern to this man. Besides, she was waiting for Bam-Bam to appear. She hadn't seen him for a while. He disappeared after escaping from her early this morning.

'I wonder if the soul-binding spell had been broken,' Abigail thought to herself as she waited for Nathan's reply.

"I don't want my son to worry so it's best for him not to know what happened," Nathan replied, watching Abigail as she skillfully used her knife to peel the apples. 'She's an expert in handling knives.' Nathan mumbled inwardly.

"You should go back to the hotel and rest," Nathan blurted out as he noticed the dark circles under her eyes. Abigail stayed awake all night just watching over him. "Aiden and Stephen will be coming here."

Abigail raised her head to look at him. She didn't want to leave because Veronica might come. She wouldn't allow her rival to stay in Nathan's ward without her presence.

"I'm gonna wait for them. Who knows someone will attack you again?" Abigail said as an alibi. But deep inside, she also wanted to make sure that nothing would happen to Nathan. She wasn't certain whether the soul-binding spell had been broken or not. She needed to confirm it first for her to relax.

On the other hand, Nathan blinked numerous times. He didn't know whether to laugh or not. "Why? Are you going to be my guard?"

Abigail grinned mischievously and asked, "How much will you pay me?" There seemed to be a dollar sign plastered in her eyes as she glanced at Nathan expectantly.

Nathan: "..."

'Does she only care about the money?' Nathan crumpled his face at that thought.

"No need. I have lots of elite bodyguards standing outside my room." Nathan responded with a hint of annoyance in his voice.

Abigail just shrugged her shoulders and murmured, "I am ten times stronger than them."

"Huh? What did you just say?" Nathan asked with a deep frown on his face. He didn't hear her words clearly.

"Hmm. Nothing. I mean… your bodyguards might be reliable and dependable," Abigail nonchalantly said, flashing a forced smile.

"Do you want me to assign one for you?" Nathan suddenly made an offer. He remembered that Abigail's life was also in danger. Someone wanted her to be dead.

Abigail met his eyes for a long moment before she responded. "You have to recover first."

Nathan frowned when he heard that. "Huh? Why?"

Abigail's lips tugged upward in a bright charming smile and said, "Because I WANT YOU to be my bodyguard, not anyone else!"

Nathan: "..."

The devil was at a loss for words once again because of Abigail's frankness. She was too bold to say that in front of him.

'Damn. This woman is also shameless.'

Meanwhile, Kathleen was now on the way to meet Abigail. She was walking in the hospital corridor going to Nathan's ward when someone blocked her. It was Veronica.

"Oh, Dr. Veronica, why are you blocking my way? Do you need something?" Kathleen said in her sarcastic tone.

Veronica tried her best to keep her cool. She wasn't there to argue with Kathleen. She had another goal.

"Can we talk? There is something I want to ask you."

Kathleen raised her eyebrow, eyeing Veronica suspiciously. 'Oh girl, what is she up to?'

"Sure let's talk," Kathleen agreed. She would like to find out if Veronica was scheming something.

"Let's go to the rooftop." Veronica motioned Kathleen to follow her. The two ladies took the lift going to the rooftop of the hospital.

Upon reaching the rooftop, Kathleen asked her right away as she didn't want to waste her precious time with Veronica. "What do you want from me, Veronica?"

"I just want to ask you why you are allowing that woman to get closer with Nathan and Stephen. Can't you see? She is trying to seduce both men!" Veronica started her attack. She wanted Kathleen to hate Abigail.

Kathleen let out a sarcastic laugh. She couldn't believe that Veronica was so desperate, accusing Abigail of seducing Stephen and Nathan.

"I think you are wrong with one thing. Abigail only wants Nathan, not Stephen." Kathleen defended Abigail.

However, Veronica sneered at Kathleen. "Are you sure about that?"

Veronica knew that Kathleen had feelings for Stephen. She was a woman and she could relate to Kathleen. Just like her, Kathleen was hiding her feelings from Stephen. So she could tell that she liked him.

Veronica would use this to create a rift between Abigail and Kathleen, destroying their friendship.

"Are you blind, Kathleen? Abigail already won. She already caught Stephen's attention. Can't you see it? Stephen was usually quiet and timid towards women. But he is becoming playful whenever he is with Abigail. He is fond of her. And the way he looks at her… I can see deep admiration in his eyes."

Kathleen was rendered speechless when she heard those words from Veronica. Her words seemed to waver Kathleen a little bit. Because of that, Veronica smiled triumphantly, thinking that her plan was working well.

She only had to add more fuel to the fire. "I will tell you this Kathleen, for your own sake. Abigail is a two-faced woman. Don't trust her completely."

"If you still don't believe me, then I have to tell you that Stephen even asked Abigail out when we were at Sparks Mansion. You can ask Aiden about it! You might not believe my words, but how about Aiden?"

Kathleen stayed silent, her expression turning sour. She didn't want to admit it but Veronica was right. She also noticed the change in Stephen's usual behavior when he was in front of Abigail.

'No way… Don't tell me… Stephen already had fallen for Abigail?'
