100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Eight…

~~*****~~

[ At Towerville City Megamall… ]

Aiden had become an errand boy today. No wonder Nathan dropped by yesterday at his villa to inform him about his decision of having a date with Abigail.

He asked him what changed his mind but Nathan just remained silent, not disclosing any information as to why he suddenly decided to go on a date with Abigail.

Aiden thought it was a good thing because they would be able to fulfill their promise to Abigail. But he didn't expect that he would have to shop and buy the things Abigail needed to wear for tonight's masquerade ball.

Nathan gave him the responsibility to take care of the things needed. He had been roaming around this mall, buying jewelry, dresses, and shoes. He also had to pick a mask that would match Abigail's clothes.

"Damn you, Nate! You should be the one doing this for your date! So irresponsible!" Aiden complained, forgetting the fact that they were at fault here. Nathan just got involved because of their bet.

Aiden was not in the mood because of a certain someone. Cherry suddenly disappeared yesterday. After talking to Nathan, they found Butler Izekiel lying unconscious in the garden. And there was no sign of Cherry.

Upon checking the CCTV footage, Cherry was last seen leaving the Villa through the front gate. She left without saying goodbye to Aiden. He wondered if he would be able to see her again.

Aiden was now standing in front of Lady's bag. He would also buy a pouch for Abigail. He was still skimming the store when his phone rang. It was a call from his friend, Stephen.

"Where are you?" Stephen asked him as soon as Aiden answered the call.

"Megamall, why?" Aiden shortly replied.

"Is it true that Nathan agreed on dating Abigail today? Did you inform her already?"

"Oh shucks! I forgot. I haven't informed Abigail yet!" Aiden exclaimed.

"Alright. Let me be the one to tell her," Stephen volunteered.

Aiden rolled his eyes skyward. "You have a hidden motive, right?"

"Of course not." Stephen denied.

"Okay. I will send things to Sparks Mansion. Nathan is not around. Why don't you take care of Abigail's hair and makeup? I am busy right now." Aiden pushed responsibility to Stephen.

"Hair and makeup? Where is he trying to bring her?" Stephen cocked his eyebrow upon hearing that.

"They will attend a birthday party and he is bringing Abigail as a date."

"What?!! Is that Nathan's definition of a date– Abigail accompanying him to a party?!" Stephen couldn't help but facepalm when he heard that.

Aiden let out a chuckle and said, "I know right? What do you expect of him? We should be used to Nathan's logic. Haha."

"Abigail will surely kill us both!" Stephen lamented.

"She had to kill Nathan first, before us!" Aiden said confidently.

"Fine. I'm hanging up. I'm on my way to visit Abigail. What time will the birthday party start?"

"It's a Masquerade Ball and it will start at 7:00 pm. Send and escort Abigail to EDSJ Five Star Hotel. Nate will be waiting for her in the lobby," Aiden instructed.

Nathan was currently in the Syphiruz Headquarters for the final briefing. They were already preparing their communication devices, strategizing how they could pass through the security check of the hotel in the venue.

No firearms are allowed. Of course, the security team would also be strict about bugs and spying devices. The birthday celebrant is a famous foreign businesswoman– Emese Serflek. Lots of politicians and businessmen would be attending this important event.

Famous actors and actresses as well as musicians were also invited as special guests who would entertain everyone. Several media companies would also cover this gathering.

[ Half an hour later… ]

At Sparks Mansion, Abigail was bonding with Little Ethan when Stephen arrived. Abigail furrowed her brows when she saw the doctor's arrival.

"Uncle Stephen?"

"Mr. Zhao…"

Both Ethan and Abigail didn't expect his arrival today.

"Why are you here?" Ethan asked his godfather.

"I am here to pass a message to your Miss Abi," Stephen said, winking at Ethan.

"What message?" Abigail blinked with utmost curiosity in her emerald eyes.

"You have a date with Nathan tonight!" Stephen declared, surprising both Ethan and Abigail.

"What? Tonight! Why didn't you tell me right away?! I am not prepared!" Abigail suddenly got anxious. The devil finally agreed!

Ethan also bobbed his head frantically in agreement with Abigail's last remarks.

"Because of my dumb foolish friend who forgot to tell you sooner. But rest assured, I am here to serve as your fairy godmother." Stephen let out a husky laugh while reassuring Abigail.

"Come with me. We need to make you the most beautiful woman tonight!" he added, extending his right hand to Abigail.

"Where are we going?" Abigail asked him in confusion.

"Spa and Salon!"

"Go, Miss Abi!" Little Ethan even pushed Abigail. He was so excited knowing that his father and Abigail were going out for a date! At this moment, Ethan didn't contradict Stephen's plan.

"Eh? Then how about you?" Abigail wanted Ethan to come with her. She suddenly felt nervous thinking that she would be alone with Nathan tonight. She didn't know what women usually do during dates. She needed tips!

'Damn! Where was Bam-Bam when I needed him?! That flying creature is missing in action once again!' Abigail lamented to herself.

"I'm gonna stay here, Miss Abi. Just relax and enjoy your night with Dad. Update me later." Ethan held her hand, patting the back of her palm. He was comforting her. He could tell that Abigail was a little bit nervous.

Without further ado, Stephen guided her to his car. He knew a Spa and a Salon wherein the staff would never disclose their clients' information. Others might recognize Abigail so he had to bring her to a Spa and Salon that strictly followed the confidentiality of their client's privacy.

When the two entered the car, Stephen glanced at her with a teasing smile.

"You asked for this. Why are you getting nervous now?" Stephen asked her inquisitively, amusement resurfacing in his eyes. "Do you want to back out?" he added.

"Of course not! I'm not nervous and I'm not backing out. I'm just so excited that my heart can't calm down…" Abegail lied.
