100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Forty...

~~*****~~

It was indeed a hot morning that could boil Nathan's blood as early as this. He was like a raging volcano that was about to erupt especially when he noticed Abigail's eyes staring at Dave's shirtless body.

What Nathan did was grab Abigail's shoulder, twirling her around to face him. He didn't want to see Abigail gawking at Dave's body.

'Where is Ethan?! I left him here to guard these two. He is not taking his job seriously!' Nathan's eyes roamed around the house, searching for his son. But he didn't see him.

'Why is he not wearing any shirt?' Nathan looked at Dave sharply.

Dave was supposed to greet Nathan with a smile. But his smile faded as soon as he was greeted by Nathan's bloodshot eyes. He was displeased.

Abigail was about to toss another look at Dave but Nathan stopped her by holding her head. His gesture was telling herâ€" 'Don't turn around. Just look at me. Only me!'

"Mr. Sparks, why are you here?" Dave broke the silence, questioning Nathan's sudden arrival.

"My son is here so I came. I'm fetching him," Nathan responded coldly.

"Do you mind putting some clothes on first? It is inappropriate to stay naked while welcoming a visitor," Nathan added, urging Dave to wear his shirt.

"Oh. I'm sorry about that. I don't usually entertain guests while shirtless. Abi made me do this." Dave chuckled lightly. He was just joking around, teasing Abigail.

However, his last statement pissed Nathan off further. So Nathan gave Abigail a questioning gaze. He looked like a boyfriend who was interrogating his girlfriend after catching her making out with another guy.

'What did you do with him?'

Abigail, who was clueless about Nathan's wild thoughts, just removed his hands from holding her in place. When she turned around, Dave was already walking toward his bedroom to get a new shirt.

Watching Dave's back, Abigail blurted out something. "He is surprisingly flawless... though he is a policeman."

Nathan's face darkened further with her remarks. He misunderstood Abigail. He thought she was drooling over Dave's body.

But Abigail meant something different. She expected him to have some marks and scars on his body, proof of his training and dangerous mission as a policeman. But he didn't have those scars and marks. So Abigail felt amused.

"So you get easily attracted to a guy with an excellent physique." Nathan scowled at her.

Abigail moved her gaze back to Nathan. She grinned playfully, sizing his body up. Then she tapped his chest and said, "Yes. That's why I like you."

Abigail simply flirted with Nathan, winking at him while biting her lips. She teased him as if she was imagining him naked. She had already seen his excellent body many times.

Nathan didn't know if he would feel mad or not. Just a while ago, she was drooling over Dave's body, and now, she was flirting with him. Should he feel glad or not?

In the end, Nathan just changed the topic. "Where is my son?"

"Little Ethan is still asleep in my room. Wait here. I will just wake him up." Abigail was about to leave when Nathan held her arm.

"No. I'm coming with you." Nathan wanted to stick with her in that house. He couldn't trust both Dave and Abigail to be left alone in this house.

Nathan hadn't slept since last night just thinking about them, most especially Abigail. He had conflicting thoughts in mind. Deep inside, he wanted her to return to the mansion and stay with them but something was stopping him from telling her that he missed her.

He felt like he was going crazy. He didn't know what he would do. He was torn in between. It was either he would continue to cooperate with his father about this false engagement or he would stop pretending for Abigail to return to the mansion.

Nathan was still lost in his thoughts when they reached Abigail's bedroom. Ethan had just woken up, rubbing his eyes. The little boy smiled broadly as soon as his eyes fell on Abigail's face.

"Good morning, Miss Abi!" He got off the bed and gave Abigail a warm hug.

"Good morning, my little angel," Abigail greeted him back. She hugged him and rubbed his hair.

"Dad, you are early. Good morning!" Ethan also hugged his father. "Is it time for school?" he asked his Dad.

"N-No. I came here to tell you that your teacher informed me that you don't have class today." Nathan lied. He just wanted Ethan to stay and watch over Abigail.

Meanwhile, Abigail and Ethan eyed Nathan suspiciously. They thought Nathan came there to fetch Ethan and drive him to school.

"Are you surâ€"" Ethan was about to retort when Nathan gave him a meaningful glance. He was asking his son to play along with his plan.

"Oh right! I remember! We have no class today since our teacher gave us time to prepare. Tomorrow is the school event... our family day. You and Miss Abi promised me that you would both attend." Ethan reminded the two.

"Yes, of course." Nathan promptly responded. "So I think Abigail should go home with us today. The three of us should prepare for tomorrow's school event. Am I right, son?" Nathan was conniving with his son for his scheme.

After having wild imaginations regarding Abigail and Dave, Nathan would never feel at ease, leaving the two of them in this house alone. As much as possible, he wanted to separate the two!

"Yes, Dad. She must!" Little Ethan supported his father.

Abigail: "..."

Abigail darted her gaze back and forth between the father and son duo. She didn't know why but she felt like the two were up to something. They were in sync today.

'What alibi will I use to explain this to Dave?' Abigail became troubled by this thought.

Looking at Little Ethan, she was aware that she couldn't refuse him. Furthermore, she already promised him that she would attend the Family Day at Ethan's school.

"Hey, guys, what's up?" Dave showed up at the front door. He was now wearing a shirt. "What did I miss?" He asked them as he noticed that the three seemed like they were discussing something.

"Uncle Dave, Can I borrow Miss Abi today until tomorrow? She promised me something so she must go home with us today." Little Ethan spoke up, using his charm to seek Dave's permission. He could feel that Abigail was contemplating a while ago because of Dave.

"Oh, sure. I don't mind... as long as it's okay with Abigail." Ethan successfully charmed Dave. Just like Abigail, Dave couldn't say no to this adorable child.

"Thanks, Uncle Dave!" Ethan ran in Dave's direction and hugged him.

Nathan couldn't help but feel jealous. Even his son was now close to Dave. They were getting along very well. 'Is he going to take my son from me as well?' Nathan pursed his lips.

Nathan was drowning in the sea of vinegar as early as this morning! Seeing the closeness of Abigail, Ethan, and Dave, Nathan felt threatened and jealous.

Nathan was not in a good mood when they came out of Abigail's bedroom. But Ethan quickly approached his father, tugging his sleeve.

Then he whispered, "Dad, stop frowning and glaring at Uncle Dave! You should smile and take it easy."

"Remember the saying: Keep your friends close and your enemies closer!" Ethan added.

Nathan: "..."
