100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Abigail just stood frozen in her spot. She was reluctant to turn around and go to Nathan. Why was he calling her? Did he notice the similarity of their wounds?

Nathan squinted his eyes at Abigail when she remained still, unmoving. His gaze settled on her right arm.

\'Why…?\' Nathan\'s frown deepened. \'I think… It\'s just a coincidence.\'

There was no scientific way to explain this. He convinced himself that this was just a mere coincidence. No deeper connection at all.

"I think… It\'s not my place to stay here so I should leave," Abigail said as an alibi. She refused to come closer to Nathan.

\'If he finds out that the soul of the woman he hates the most is here… in this body… I am certain… he will do lots of things just to torture me…\' Abigail began to overthink.

"You can wait for me outside," Nathan said. This time he didn\'t stop Abigail from leaving the room.

Abigail just nodded her head and left, ignoring the strange look Veronica and Dr Doreen were giving her. The two ladies couldn\'t comprehend why Nathan seemed so close to Abigail. How could this be possible? Veronica\'s jealousy intensified further!

Meanwhile, Abigail waited outside, leaning on the wall of the hallway. She heaved a sigh of relief. Nathan didn\'t say anything about the similar wound.

"Sigh. Nathan will never think that I am connected to Phantomflake. He will never think that my soul was transferred to this body. Besides, this phenomenon is unbelievable… In modern times like this, no one will think that supernatural creatures like Bam-Bam exist." Abigail murmured to herself.

Abigail was still lost in her own thoughts when someone approached her. It was Stephen. He also heard the news about Phantomflake so he came over.

"Abi?" Stephen was surprised to see her.

Stephen\'s voice brought Abigail back to the present. She raised her head and glanced at him.

"What are you doing here?" Stephen asked her curiously. He had never expected that Nathan would bring Abigail to Phantomflake\'s ward. They weren\'t so sure yet if Abigail was a spy or not.

"I tagged along with Nathan," Abigail simply responded.

Stephen nodded at her, concealing his real emotions by giving her a faint smile. He would continue to secretly monitor and find out Abigail\'s true intention and motive for approaching Nathan\'s family.

"Have you seen Kathleen?" Stephen changed the topic right away. They still didn\'t have any updates on Kathleen\'s whereabouts.

Abigail suddenly got worried at the mention of Kathleen\'s name. "No. She hasn\'t returned to the hotel yet?" Abigail almost forgot Kathleen because her mind was occupied with something else, especially about Nathan.

"No. Aiden kept contacting her but she was not responding. Aiden went out to search for her," Stephen informed her.

"Okay. I want to help him." Abigail volunteered but Stephen rejected that idea.

"No. You can\'t go anywhere. Someone attacked you last night. You shouldn\'t go out."

Abigail sighed deeply. Stephen was acting like Nathan. They were so strict, not allowing her to go anywhere.

"By the way, are you here to visit the patient as well? Nathan is inside." Abigail wanted to divert Stephen\'s attention. If he would join Nathan inside, she would grab this opportunity to leave the hospital and search for Kathleen. Kathleen had become a good friend of hers so she was concerned about her safety.

\'Kathleen annoyed Veronica so much. She provoked her so many times. What if she did something to her?\' Abigail\'s imagination started to run wild.

"Okay. I will just check on them. I\'ll be right back," Stephen said. He wanted to know what happened to Phantomflake as well.

Abigail just nodded her head, motioning Stephen to enter the room. When Stephen left her alone, Abigail didn\'t think twice as she decided to get out of the hospital.

She didn\'t need any guards. For her, it would be troublesome to have some people following you around. Besides, she was confident that she could protect herself.

Without asking Nathan\'s permission, Abigail contacted Aiden. She would like to join him in finding Kathleen.

"Aiden, where are you? Come here and pick me up!" Abigail commanded as if she was Aiden\'s Lady Boss. She informed him that she was waiting for him in the hospital lobby.

Aiden was speechless. Abigail sounded like Nathan who was bossing around everyone. \'Eh? This woman is Nathan\'s girl version.\' Aiden thought to himself.

"Why?" Aiden asked her curiously.

"I\'ll accompany you in finding Kathleen," Abigail promptly responded.

"Did Nathan allow you to leave?" Aiden asked her to confirm.

"Yes, Of course! He said I\'m safe with you so there is nothing to worry about," She lied without batting an eyelid.

Aiden, who was clueless that Abigail was lying, felt so touched and proud knowing that Nathan believed in him.

His hesitation to bring Abigail with him disappeared. He even smiled foolishly as he was so happy to hear Abigail\'s last remarks.

"Okay. I\'m on the way now to pick you up!" And just like that, Aiden fell for her lies.

Well, among the three guys, Aiden was truly the one whom she could easily deal with. He was not as sharp as Stephen and Nathan. He was a little naive sometimes, but Aiden had his cute and unique charming side.

Ten minutes later, Aiden\'s car stopped at the entrance of the hospital lobby. Abigail immediately hopped in the front passenger seat.

"Let\'s go!" Abigail said after buckling her seatbelt.

"Okay," Aiden awkwardly said as he drove the car, leaving the hospital. Aiden was very silent as he stole glances at Abigail from time to time. He was thinking about the last conversation he had with Stephen.

\'Is Abi a dangerous person? Stephen said to be wary in front of her. Should I trust her or not? Should I treat her as a friend or a foe?\' Aiden mused to himself.

"Gentleman, eyes on the road, please. I don\'t want to die in a car accident," Abigail suddenly blurted out, surprising Aiden. Abigail already sensed the strange glances Aiden was giving her.

Aiden just smiled sheepishly as he was caught by her. "I\'m sorry."

"Do you have something to tell me, Engr. Wu? Or do you want to ask me something?" Abigail confronted him directly. Aiden was not good at hiding his true emotions so Abigail noticed his strange reactions right away.

"Miss Abi… are you a spy?" Aiden absentmindedly blurted out. Damn, he just said what\'s literally running on his mind right now!

Abigail: "..."

\'Whoa, this gentleman is so frank and too direct!\' Abigail didn\'t know whether she should feel glad or not since Aiden voiced out what was truly in his mind. \'So… is he suspecting me already?\'

"Why do you think I am a spy? And to whom should I spy? Nathan Sparks?" Abigail answered him with another question!

Aiden smiled awkwardly, scratching his face helplessly. He knew he committed another mistake. Stephen already warned him to be cautious around Abigail, but here he was, frankly telling her what he was thinking.

"Hmm. Because you are good at fighting… and you look scary sometimes… as if you are a Lady Boss! Are you Nathan\'s enemy and competitor?" Aiden asked her again with his innocent expression.

Abigail: "..."

\'Gosh. This guy doesn\'t have any brake when talking. He doesn\'t even filter his choice of words.\' Abigail shook her head helplessly.
