Day Thirty-Six...
~~*****~~
Aiden didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Just yesterday, he was teasing Nathan, asking him if he would get jealous if ever he kissed Abigail in front of him.
But Nathan just scoffed at him, telling him to try and get killed by Abigail. Who would have thought that he would be put in the same situation tonight?
But this time... it was Abigail who initiated the move. Was she drunk? Was this the effect of alcohol in Abigail's system?
Aiden's body stiffened further when Abigail grabbed the back of his head as her face was inching closer and closer to him.
A panic-stricken expression could be seen all over his face, especially when Aiden met Nathan's bloodshot eyes. He was standing just a few meters away from them.
'Oh no! Why do I feel like I got caught cheating on my husband?' Aiden thought to himself. Nathan's cold sharp glare was like a strong force that broke Abigail's spell on Aiden.
Just before Abigail's lips touched his, Aiden quickly covered Abigail's mouth by inserting his palm in between their lips. Then it was followed by Aiden's cry for help.
"Nate!!! Help me! Miss Abi is going to rape me. She is so drunk!"
Abigail glared at Aiden as she removed his hand that was covering her mouth. "I'm not drunk! I'm sober."
Hissing at him, Abigail gently pushed Aiden away from her body. She turned around only to meet Nathan's expressionless face. Nathan managed to conceal his raging fury, thanks to Aiden's quick thinking.
Aiden could now breathe evenly. Not wanting to die in either Nathan's hand or Abigail's hand, Aiden hurriedly entered his car to flee.
"I'm leaving! Good night everyone!" Aiden said goodbye to Nathan and Abigail before starting the car. He didn't wait for their reply. He just sped off, leaving the Sparks Mansion. His heart was still beating so fast.
"What the hell Abigail was thinking? Nathan almost cursed me to death. He is frightening!" Aiden uttered. He could still feel the chill running down his spine as he recalled Nathan's deathly glare.
"Damn! Abi is a troublemaker! I almost got a heart attack a while ago."
Meanwhile, Abigail scowled at Nathan. She hated to see his blank expression. She thought he would get jealous after seeing that scene. But Nathan was just staring at her indifferently as if he didn't care at all.
"Where have you been?" Nathan asked her, restraining himself from grabbing Abigail.
Abigail sneered at him and nonchalantly responded, "Clubbing with your best friend. Why?"
"Nothing. I'm just asking." Nathan turned around and walked ahead, not waiting for Abigail.
Nathan's reaction pissed her off further! Abigail sprinted inside the mansion, following Nathan. She had a few drinks but she wasn't drunk. She was sober when she almost kissed Aiden.
Aiden kept on insisting that Nathan cares about her but she didn't believe him. When she saw Nathan approaching, Abigail wanted to test him. She would like to know if Aiden was telling the truth.
But to her disappointment, Nathan didn't feel anything. That's what she thought. She hated him. Her heart clenched in pain. She felt suffocated. She needed to let it out otherwise, she would explode.
Abigail followed Nathan to his room.
Knock! Knock!
She kept knocking on his door. After five seconds, the door was opened. Nathan let her in.
"Why are you here?" Nathan asked her coldly. He had been suppressing his rage. He headed to his room to calm himself down but Abigail followed him.
Abigail met his gaze and confronted Nathan.
"I did everything! Why don't you like me?"
Nathan was stunned for a moment, hearing her words. After he recovered, he just shrugged his shoulders and looked at her expressionlessly, making Abigail more annoyed.
Abigail started to enumerate what she had done for him so far. But Nathan always had a response to her.
"I cooked for you!" Abigail hit his shoulder.
Nathan arched his eyebrow and responded, "You almost poisoned me."
Abigail rolled her eyes. "For goodness's sake. It wasn't my fault. It was the scheme of your former Chef!"
"I know," Nathan nonchalantly said.
"I clean your big mansion!" Abigail waved her hands, emphasizing her words.
"You broke our century-aged vase family heirloom." Nathan told her about her mistake.
"It was an accident!" Abigail explained, rubbing her temples.
Nathan didn't comment further.
"I serenade you!" Abigail brought up what she did for him in Country F.
"You are out of tune," Nathan replied with a straight face.
Abigail just looked at him helplessly. 'Liar!'
Slamming her eyes, she took a deep breath. The devil was so annoying. He didn't appreciate the things she had done for him.
"I took the bullet for you!" Abigail emphasized, patting her chest.
But Nathan simply answered her, "I didn't ask you to do that."
Abigail squinted her eyes at this cold-hearted devil. She's losing her patience.
"I almost stripped in front of you but you didn't even react!" Abigail's cheeks reddened as she said those words. It was too embarrassing but she had to bring it up.
'Damn it! I regret saying it.' Abigail had the urge to cover her face. She wondered what Nathan would say.
"You didn't take all your clothes off."
Abi: "..."
This time... his lips twitched, smirking at her coyly.
Abigail rolled her eyes skyward as she realized that the devil was just teasing her. 'Pervert!'
"Fine. I give up! It's so hard to seduce a robot!" She murmured.
She was about to turn around and leave when suddenly a pair of strong arms caught her by her waist. Then she just felt her body being pushed on the wall.
Nathan's face was now a few centimeters away from hers. She could feel his fresh breath fanning her cheek. "If you want to seduce me then do it properly!"
'Shit! What is he trying to do here?' Abi's heart was thumping like a drum roll inside her chest. Her mind went blank.
Before she knew it, she just found herself being kissed by the devil hungrily and aggressively.
'Damn?! Is this for real? The Devil is kissing me?!'
