100 Days to Seduce the Devil-Chapter 48 "Come To Me"

Day Four…

~~*****~~

Unaware that Abigail was already watching them, Aiden used his free hand to grab Stephen's collar. However, before he could reach his collar, Stephen raised his other hand, thus blocking Aiden's arm.

"Are you going to fight? Bring it outside, not here. You might turn the house upside down. I don't want Nathan to give me a mouthful once he comes back." ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m

Abigail's voice caught their attention, making Stephen and Aiden turn in her direction. The two men immediately broke away from each other, facing Abigail with an embarrassed smile.

"We are not fighting. This is how we greet each other," Aiden said as an alibi, wrapping his arms around Stephen's shoulders.

"Engr. Wu, you have a unique way of greeting someone. Don't get too much physical," Abigail said meaningfully before letting out a soft giggle.

Her words just reminded Aiden how she almost broke his arms because of his weird way of greeting her.

Aiden could only pout his lips, feeling a little bit guilty. Stephen, on the other hand, patted Aiden's back and teased him, "Follow her advice. Don't get too much physical."

Aiden just crumpled his face, his eyes glaring at his best friend. Stephen was taunting him and making fun of him.

But his psychologist friend just ignored his deathly glare, pulling him towards the sofa where Abigail was serving their snacks.

"C'mon Aiden, don't spoil the fun with a long face," Stephen whispered to him.

Aiden just rolled his eyes at his friend, sitting down lazily on the sofa. He suddenly got annoyed by Stephen's presence, although he was the one who requested him to be there.

As soon as the three of them settled down, Abigail, Stephen, and Aiden continued talking about some stuff. They kept praising Abigail for her booming career.

"Miss Abigail, is it true that you will be staying here for a while? What is your relationship with Ethan and Nathan?" Stephen was the one who brought this question up.

Abigail was not surprised. She presumed Nathan had already mentioned her to his friends– Stephen and Aiden. She also believed that their presence today in that house had something to do with Nathan.

'Did the devil ask his friends to help him figure out my plan and motive? I bet these guys were already well-informed about me.'

Abigail's lips tugged upward into a satisfied smile. 'Sending them here is a wrong move, Nathan. You just gave me an opportunity to get close with your friends.'

"I just met Ethan coincidentally. I was not feeling well by then. And my alleged suicide is stressing me out. I just need to escape from my world. Besides, someone is after my life so I need to stay away from the limelight to protect myself. It just so happened fate brought me to Ethan and Nathan. I shamelessly asked Nathan for a favor. I have to lie low for now," she said, getting their sympathy.

Aiden dramatically smashed the table with his palm. "Who is that bastard? He is a fucking coward! How dare he tried to hurt our future superstar?! Nathan should mobilize his men to find the culprit. Abi's fans would be sad if she will not be able to perform and do her projects and drama series!" 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

Stephen's lips moved in an unpleasant twist, fighting the urge to seal Aiden's mouth. He overreacted and he even mentioned Nathan's men. He would really sew up his mouth if he dared mention Syphiruz in front of Abigail.

"Don't worry. I'm fine. This might be a blessing in disguise. I can take a rest and live a stress-free life, far away from my critics and the public's eyes." Abigail waved her hand nonchalantly.

"Sigh. If anyone bullies you in public, just come to me, Miss Abi. You will have my full support!" Aiden reassured her.

"Thank you, Aiden. I will keep that in mind." Abigail flashed a faint smile, expressing her gratitude for his offer. She would certainly grab it once she needed him.

"But what if Nathan will be the one bullying me, will you still support me?" Abigail asked Aiden, testing him.

At this moment, Aiden was not able to utter some words. He opened his mouth only to close it again. He couldn't find the right word to reply. He just looked at her with an apologetic smile.

"I am no match with Nathan…" Aiden meekly said, scratching his nose. He was so embarrassed to admit that but it was the truth.

Then Stephen butted in, speaking his thoughts. "You can come to me… if Nathan dares bully you."

Abigail and Aiden were both rendered speechless when they heard Stephen. They didn't expect him to say those words while having a serious expression on his face.

Cough! Cough!

Abigail cleared her throat, trying to erase the awkwardness surrounding them.

"Gentlemen, do you want to hang out on the balcony? We can play some cards there to relax."

"Sure, Let's go!" Stephen promptly responded. This was a light gleam in his brown eyes.

The three of them decided to leave the living room. Abigail was so focused on doing her task to entertain Nathan's guests. She was trying her best to be a good host for today.

But a bitter person inside the house took notice that someone unqualified was talking to Nathan's best friends. Chef Min couldn't understand why Butler Li was allowing a stranger to mingle with their important guests.

Chef Min learned that Master Aiden and Master Stephen dropped by the mansion as he was the one who prepared the snacks for them. The chef left his quarter abruptly to spy on Abigail.

Hiding from the staircase near the living room, Chef Min secretly watched Abigail and their two guests. He heard the two men laughing and happily talking to Abigail as they headed to the balcony.

'What a bitch! Is she trying to seduce Master Nathan's friends as well? I can't allow this to happen.'

Chef Min was still fuming in rage since Abigail was left off the hook. He heard that she didn't get punished but it was Lady Veronica who got scolded by their Master Nathan.

Chef Min picked up his phone and dialed Veronica's number. He would tell her what was happening in the mansion. Veronica asked Chef Min to keep an eye on Abigail.
