100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Twenty Three...

~~*****~~

Abigail left the fitting room, showing her gown to the ladies. They gasped in surprise and admiration. The dress suited Abigail very well. She looked like a fairy princess.

"Oh My Gosh! My creation is perfectly made for you!" Celeste said exasperatedly. She even clapped her hands and jumped from too much joy.

Ana could only raise her two thumbs, showing how satisfied she was to see Abigail's gown. She would certainly stand out in the crowd during the Star Gala.

She could no longer wait for Abigail to rock the Star Gala with her gorgeous and stunning look. She was rooting for her to be the Star of the Night!

On the other hand, Chantha pulled out her phone from her pocket and took photos of Abigail. She planned on sending Abigail's photos to Nathan. She wanted to see how he would react since he didn't respond to her last message.

Click! Click!

Chantha was not supposed to do this but she had the urge to tease Nathan. It was so unlikely of him to show concern and interest in another woman aside from Monica.

"Our Supreme Leader looks suspicious. I don't think he is only doubtful of Abigail's motive but he is truly concerned about her." Chantha murmured. She didn't know if she should feel glad or feel jealous.

Jealous... because Nathan didn't give her such attention before even though she made efforts and always tried to impress him.

Glad... because she believed it was good for Nathan to move on already and not linger on the past and Abigail would be a great diversion for him to forget about Monica. Monica shouldn't be the center of his life. He had Ethan and other people around him.

Meanwhile, Nathan was in his office when he received the photos coming from Chantha. He paused what he was doing and checked his phone.

Nathan was put in a daze when he saw Abigail's photo in her Sakura Phoenix gown. She looked stunning even though she was not wearing any makeup.

Subconsciously, Nathan observed and assessed Abigail's appearance through his phone. He had to admit that he couldn't take his eyes off her photos since Abigail possessed a mesmerizing beauty.

It did not take long before Nathan fished something out of his pocket. It was a piece of paper with Ethan's handwriting. He checked his To-Do List to find what he should do next.

Cook a meal for her, preferably a breakfast in bed. ~(Check)

Engage in a light conversation with her. ~(Check)

Be considerate of her... most especially towards her feelings. ~(Check)

Treat her well and serve her with sincerity. ~

Grant one of her wishes. ~

....

Nathan sighed as he noticed that his son wrote a lot of things. He only checked the three items which he thought he had already done for this morning.

Nathan darted his gaze back and forth between his phone and the To-Do list. Then an idea popped up in his mind.

He found a reason to leave the office and to see Abigail at this moment. He didn't forget to ask for Ethan's cooperation. His son would be free from school this afternoon. He would drop by his school and fetch him before meeting Abigail in the mall.

[ Nathan: Son, do you want to see Miss Abi? ]

[ Ethan: Yes Dad! Let's hang out together. Let's go to our city's amusement park! ]

[ Nathan: Okay, son. I'm on my way now. Wait for me. ]

[ Ethan: Come faster, Dad! ]

The father and son duo agreed to bring Abigail to the amusement park. But Abigail was still with her manager and her personal assistant.

After contemplating for a moment, Nathan shut down his laptop and grabbed his coat. He had the urge to see Abigail now so he dashed out of his room.

"What if she would meet the CEO of Star Corp after fitting her gown?" Nathan clenched his fists.

For some unknown reason, he didn't want to see her getting close to that guy. Besides, he heard the rumor about Abigail and her CEO. He was annoyed just thinking about the two being together.

Nathan was about to leave the SYP Starlight Corp Building when Axel bumped into him at the entrance.

"Master, where are you going?" Axel asked him in puzzlement. He just arrived after buying some coffee outside.

"Where are your bodyguards?" Axel added as he didn't see his bodyguards.

"I'm going to fetch my son... No need to bring my bodyguards." Nathan didn't want his bodyguards to follow him around while roaming around the amusement park with Abigail and Ethan.

"But Master... we haven't caught the culprit who stabbed you in Country F. You have to bring your bodyguards for your own safety! I can't let it happen twice!" Axel was very concerned about his safety.

"If you are worried about me, you can follow me and bring a few bodyguards... but make sure that you will not get near me within four meters distance." Nathan finally allowed Axel to tag along with him... together with a few bodyguards.

Nathan didn't wait for Axel to say another word as he already walked past him. His car was already parked in the front. Nathan stepped into his car and drove off.

Axel could only shake his head. His CEO seemed like he was in a hurry. Axel just called some bodyguards and mobilized them. Two cars were now following Nathan's car.

*Twenty Minutes Later...*

Abigail, Chantha, and the other ladies just said goodbye to Celeste when Chantha received a message from Axel.

"Oh, another unusual person texted me!" Chantha mumbled in amusement upon seeing Axel's name on her phone screen. Nathan instructed Axel to inform Chantha that he was fetching Abigail himself and she didn't need to tag along.

"What?! How can he order me around like this? And why is he the one texting me, not our Supreme Leader, Nathan? Hmmph!" Chantha pouted her lips in annoyance.

Before she could even reply, Axel was already walking towards them. Abigail and Chantha were surprised to see Axel inching closer and closer to them.

"What is he doing here? Is Nathan here?" Abigail subconsciously looked around, searching for Nathan. She felt disappointed when she didn't see him. Little did she know, Nathan was in the parking area together with Ethan.

"Miss Abi, Axel told me that he was here to fetch you," Chantha whispered in her ear.

Ana and Santra didn't know Axel at all so they didn't have any reactions when the guy suddenly showed up in front of them.

"Miss Abi," Axel greeted her, ignoring Chantha's presence. His snobbish attitude made Chantha more annoyed. He was truly good at ruining her mood.

'If only Abigail and others were not here, I would have punched him already.' Chantha thought to herself, glaring at Axel.

"Axel, why are you here?" Abigail asked Axel curiously.

"Miss Abi, I've come to fetch you. Young Master Ethan wants to see you." After saying that, Axel turned to Chantha. "You don't have to come. Miss Abi will use another car. You can send her friends back to their residence." Axel said it in his commanding tone.

"How dare–" Chantha wanted to talk back but stopped midway as she realized that she was pretending to be a bodyguard. She had no right to get mad at her Big Boss's assistant/secretary.

She closed her mouth and gently hit it with her right hand. Axel sneered at her mockingly as he provoked her. He was taking advantage of this situation since Chantha had to shut her mouth and couldn't refute his words.

Abigail could feel the tension between the two. But she had no time to spare. A charming boy was already waiting for her. With that thought in mind, Abigail asked Axel to lead the way.

"Chantha, please drive them back. Ana... Santra, I have to go now. I will see you around." Abigail turned around, following Axel behind.

When they reached the parking area, Abigail immediately saw Nathan and Ethan standing next to each other in front of the car.

"Miss Abi!" Ethan called her name as he waved at her.

Abigail's lips curled up into a wide smile seeing Ethan's charming face. He could easily brighten up her mood. After running in their direction, Abigail leaned down to give Ethan a warm embrace.

Ethan giggled joyfully and welcomed her hug. Nathan was carried away by this touching scene. How could his son be so close to this stranger?

When Abigail drew back from hugging Ethan, Nathan reflexively turned to her, expecting to receive a hug from her as well. But then again, he realized his mistake.

'Damn! Why am I expecting her to hug me as well?' Nathan scolded himself inwardly, feeling embarrassed by his own imagination.

"Miss Abi, let's go!" Ethan mumbled, opening the car door for her.

Abigail entered the car, pretending to ignore Nathan. But the moment she sat down, she stole glances at him. 'Hmm, the devil is acting like an obedient child today. He is doing and applying Ethan's suggestions.' Abigail smiled, feeling satisfied.

She had a mischievous thought in mind. 'Ahuh, Ethan included in the lists that Nathan should treat me well and serve me with sincerity. I will take advantage of this. This is a once-in-a-lifetime moment.'

"Ethan... I think I should sit in front, otherwise, your father will look like our driver." Abigail whispered to Ethan.

The young boy bobbed his head right away. "Go ahead, Miss Abi!"

Abigail alighted from the car and moved to the front passenger seat. Nathan was about to go to the driver's seat when Abigail tapped his shoulder and pointed her fingers at the car door of the front passenger seat.

Nathan frowned as he didn't understand her.

Abigail rolled her eyes and said, "Aren't you going to open the door for me?" She was giving him a 'serve-me-well' look.

Nathan: "..."

Nathan never did that to anyone, except for Monica!
