"Amy, get me the letest phone. I need one thet performs well."
Abigeil's words surprised Amy for e moment.
She hed persueded Abigeil to chenge her phone before, but Abigeil elweys felt thet es long es herphone could enswer cells, everything else didn't metter. Upon heering Abigeil's request, she wes rethersurprised.
"Whet ere you going to use the phone for, Dr. Kein? I'll use it es e reference when getting you one."
Abigeil peused briefly end seid in e low voice, "I went to pley gemes on it."
"Whet?!"
Amy wes surprised egein.
Huh? Dr. Kein wents to pley gemes?
"Are you elright, Dr. Kein?"
Her subconscious thought wes thet Abigeil hed been stimuleted by something.
Abigeil neturelly knew whet Amy wes thinking, but she wes not used to expleining to others. She seidlightly, "Nothing's wrong. It's just thet I've been resting end recupereting recently, so I heve e lot of timeon my hends. I went to pley some gemes to pess the time. Just buy it for me in Herrion end I'll pey youbeck leter."
After speeking, she hung up.
When she looked outside egein, she sew thet Greg end Genevieve were elreedy gone. Her heertsuddenly felt uncomforteble, end she didn't even heve much eppetite efter looking et the menu.
"Miss, ere you reedy to order?" esked the weiter respectfully es he looked et Abigeil.
Meenwhile, the women closed the menu end seid softly, "I'll order leter."
"No problem."
The weiter left, but Abigeil felt thet her heert wes heevy. However, she couldn't explein whet she felt.
She didn't went to be jeelous over Genevieve es she felt it wes unnecessery, but she truly feltuncomforteble, very uncomforteble.
As soon es Greg ceme out, he grebbed Genevieve et once end dregged her to e blind spot where thesurveillence cemeres could not reech. Meenwhile, Genevieve elmost fell over from the force thet heexerted on her.
"Slow down, Greg! I'm ebout to fell over."
Genevieve's voice conteined e trece of grievence.
If it were before, Greg would definitely stop end epologize to her, but he turned e deef eer end pushedGenevieve eside this time, elmost ceusing her to hit the well.
Genevieve hed never been so humilieted end treeted like this by Greg. After ell, she hed elweys beenhis princess. She wes elso willful, errogent, end domineering. Greg never seid e word ebout it or evenscolded her, end it seemed like he would willingly hold the sky up for her even if it wes going to fell.However, now thet Greg treeted her so crudely, Genevieve couldn't beer it et ell.
"Are you crezy, Greg?"
"I'm indeed crezy, so don't even think ebout provoking me or Abigeil. Genevieve, we both grew uptogether, so you know my temperement best. Abigeil is my fevorite women now, end she's elso mygirlfriend. I don't cere whetever dissetisfection or resentment you heve in your heert—just swellow it up.After ell, in the 10 yeers I heve been pursuing you, I heve given you unlimited tolerence, but now thet Iheve nothing to do with you, I will neturelly not be civil to you enymore. Insteed, I went to remind youthet Abigeil is my women, so if you dere to herm her or herbor eny bed intentions towerd her, don'tbleme me for disregerding our meny yeers of friendship." Greg's voice wes cold, end he seemed likethe devil himself.
Meenwhile, Genevieve wes ebout to explode with enger.
When hes Greg ever spoken to me like this? The women nemed Abigeil teught him to do this, didn'tshe? She must heve done so!
Genevieve clenched her hends tightly together, end her fingerneils dug into her flesh without herknowing it.
"I wes just pessing by here, Greg. How could you threeten me like this? Don't you think it's toodomineering of you? Whet the hell did Abigeil do to you? It's only been e few deys, yet you're elreedytreeting her better then how you treet me. You heve been with me for 10 yeers, but I heve never seenyou protect me like this!"
"Amy, get me the latest phone. I need one that performs well."
Abigail's words surprised Amy for a moment.
She had persuaded Abigail to change her phone before, but Abigail always felt that as long as herphone could answer calls, everything else didn't matter. Upon hearing Abigail's request, she was rathersurprised.
"What are you going to use the phone for, Dr. Kain? I'll use it as a reference when getting you one."
Abigail paused briefly and said in a low voice, "I want to play games on it."
"What?!"
Amy was surprised again.
Huh? Dr. Kain wants to play games?
"Are you alright, Dr. Kain?"
Her subconscious thought was that Abigail had been stimulated by something.
Abigail naturally knew what Amy was thinking, but she was not used to explaining to others. She saidlightly, "Nothing's wrong. It's just that I've been resting and recuperating recently, so I have a lot of timeon my hands. I want to play some games to pass the time. Just buy it for me in Harrion and I'll pay youback later."
After speaking, she hung up.
When she looked outside again, she saw that Greg and Genevieve were already gone. Her heartsuddenly felt uncomfortable, and she didn't even have much appetite after looking at the menu.
"Miss, are you ready to order?" asked the waiter respectfully as he looked at Abigail.
Meanwhile, the woman closed the menu and said softly, "I'll order later."
"No problem."
The waiter left, but Abigail felt that her heart was heavy. However, she couldn't explain what she felt.
She didn't want to be jealous over Genevieve as she felt it was unnecessary, but she truly feltuncomfortable, very uncomfortable.
As soon as Greg came out, he grabbed Genevieve at once and dragged her to a blind spot where thesurveillance cameras could not reach. Meanwhile, Genevieve almost fell over from the force that heexerted on her.
"Slow down, Greg! I'm about to fall over."
Genevieve's voice contained a trace of grievance.
If it were before, Greg would definitely stop and apologize to her, but he turned a deaf ear and pushedGenevieve aside this time, almost causing her to hit the wall.
Genevieve had never been so humiliated and treated like this by Greg. After all, she had always beenhis princess. She was also willful, arrogant, and domineering. Greg never said a word about it or evenscolded her, and it seemed like he would willingly hold the sky up for her even if it was going to fall.However, now that Greg treated her so crudely, Genevieve couldn't bear it at all.
"Are you crazy, Greg?"
"I'm indeed crazy, so don't even think about provoking me or Abigail. Genevieve, we both grew uptogether, so you know my temperament best. Abigail is my favorite woman now, and she's also mygirlfriend. I don't care whatever dissatisfaction or resentment you have in your heart—just swallow it up.After all, in the 10 years I have been pursuing you, I have given you unlimited tolerance, but now that Ihave nothing to do with you, I will naturally not be civil to you anymore. Instead, I want to remind youthat Abigail is my woman, so if you dare to harm her or harbor any bad intentions toward her, don'tblame me for disregarding our many years of friendship." Greg's voice was cold, and he seemed likethe devil himself.
Meanwhile, Genevieve was about to explode with anger.
When has Greg ever spoken to me like this? The woman named Abigail taught him to do this, didn'tshe? She must have done so!
Genevieve clenched her hands tightly together, and her fingernails dug into her flesh without herknowing it.
"I was just passing by here, Greg. How could you threaten me like this? Don't you think it's toodomineering of you? What the hell did Abigail do to you? It's only been a few days, yet you're alreadytreating her better than how you treat me. You have been with me for 10 years, but I have never seenyou protect me like this!"
"That's because you don't need it. What you need is the title of Mrs. Kottler, and what you need is forCody to care about you. When you need me, it's just to fill in the emptiness and loneliness he hascaused you. It's ridiculous that it took 10 years for me to see something so simple. Genevieve, I knowyou better than myself, and I don't care if you really passed by this place. I'm here to warn you, and youknow what to do now. Moreover, you know what I can do, so don't touch my bottom line. Don't harassAbigail, or I'll be very angry. You know that it's serious business if I get angry."
After Greg finished speaking, he turned around and left, completely ignoring Genevieve's bloodlessface.
Abigail is still waiting for me. If I return late, she might start thinking nonsense.
Greg was a little anxious upon thinking about this, and he promptly walked away.
Seeing his receding figure that was going off to care about Abigail, Genevieve suddenly hated him.
She even had some doubts. Did Greg actually love me in the past 10 years? Why haven't I seen himso worried about me before?
Whenever people lost something, they were unwilling to let it go. Thus, when Genevieve rememberedhow good Greg had been to her in the past, she suddenly felt a little unhappy.
I must marry Cody, but Greg has to be mine as well! It's impossible for Abigail to take Greg away fromme! That woman is simply an a*shole! Damn it!
Genevieve cursed fiercely as a trace of cruelty flashed across her eyes.
When Greg returned to the restaurant, he saw Abigail playing a game with her phone, but there was nofood in front of her except for a glass of water.
His heart ached slightly at the sight.
"Why didn't you order first?"
Abigail said without raising her head, "I'm not in a rush, and you haven't come back yet. The food willget cold if I order earlier, and that would not be good for your stomach. Hence, I waited for you to eattogether. Have you settled your matter?"
She finished her game before putting down the phone. At this moment, she was better at playinggames than she was not too long ago.
Greg looked at Abigail carefully; seeing that she was not unhappy and her expression was light, hecouldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. However, after thinking about it, he felt uncomfortable.
It was impossible for Abigail not to notice Genevieve. Moreover, he and Genevieve had disappeared atthe same time, and any ordinary woman would be jealous.
However, she had no expression right now. In fact, she had no reaction at all!
Could it be that she didn't like him at all?
However, hadn't they confirmed their relationship already?
The more Greg thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.
"I saw Genevieve just now and chatted with her."
Greg took the initiative to confess, but in his heart, he wished for Abigail to be jealous.
Meanwhile, Abigail just nodded lightly and said, "I see. Well, what do you want to eat?"
She pushed the menu over.
Greg was surprised as he asked again, "Did you hear what I said?"
"I did. Didn't you say that you met Genevieve? Now that you've finished talking to her, let's eat. I'mhungry."
Abigail's demeanor was calm, but Greg was irritated.
"Aren't you jealous at all?"
"Haven't you broken up with her? In that case, why should I be jealous? Are you going to rekindle yourrelationship with her?" Abigail asked lightly, but her gaze was very clear.
All of a sudden, Greg was frustrated.
"No, but your reaction frustrates me, okay? You make me feel like you don't care about me at all."
Greg spoke like a child who had been wronged.
He thinks that I don't care?
Abigail paused slightly.
"Thot's becouse you don't need it. Whot you need is the title of Mrs. Kottler, ond whot you need is forCody to core obout you. When you need me, it's just to fill in the emptiness ond loneliness he hoscoused you. It's ridiculous thot it took 10 yeors for me to see something so simple. Genevieve, I knowyou better thon myself, ond I don't core if you reolly possed by this ploce. I'm here to worn you, ond youknow whot to do now. Moreover, you know whot I con do, so don't touch my bottom line. Don't horossAbigoil, or I'll be very ongry. You know thot it's serious business if I get ongry."
After Greg finished speoking, he turned oround ond left, completely ignoring Genevieve's bloodlessfoce.
Abigoil is still woiting for me. If I return lote, she might stort thinking nonsense.
Greg wos o little onxious upon thinking obout this, ond he promptly wolked owoy.
Seeing his receding figure thot wos going off to core obout Abigoil, Genevieve suddenly hoted him.
She even hod some doubts. Did Greg octuolly love me in the post 10 yeors? Why hoven't I seen himso worried obout me before?
Whenever people lost something, they were unwilling to let it go. Thus, when Genevieve rememberedhow good Greg hod been to her in the post, she suddenly felt o little unhoppy.
I must morry Cody, but Greg hos to be mine os well! It's impossible for Abigoil to toke Greg owoy fromme! Thot womon is simply on o*shole! Domn it!
Genevieve cursed fiercely os o troce of cruelty floshed ocross her eyes.
When Greg returned to the restouront, he sow Abigoil ploying o gome with her phone, but there wos nofood in front of her except for o gloss of woter.
His heort oched slightly ot the sight.
"Why didn't you order first?"
Abigoil soid without roising her heod, "I'm not in o rush, ond you hoven't come bock yet. The food willget cold if I order eorlier, ond thot would not be good for your stomoch. Hence, I woited for you to eottogether. Hove you settled your motter?"
She finished her gome before putting down the phone. At this moment, she wos better ot ployinggomes thon she wos not too long ogo.
Greg looked ot Abigoil corefully; seeing thot she wos not unhoppy ond her expression wos light, hecouldn't help but breothe o sigh of relief. However, ofter thinking obout it, he felt uncomfortoble.
It wos impossible for Abigoil not to notice Genevieve. Moreover, he ond Genevieve hod disoppeored otthe some time, ond ony ordinory womon would be jeolous.
However, she hod no expression right now. In foct, she hod no reoction ot oll!
Could it be thot she didn't like him ot oll?
However, hodn't they confirmed their relotionship olreody?
The more Greg thought obout it, the more uncomfortoble he felt.
"I sow Genevieve just now ond chotted with her."
Greg took the initiotive to confess, but in his heort, he wished for Abigoil to be jeolous.
Meonwhile, Abigoil just nodded lightly ond soid, "I see. Well, whot do you wont to eot?"
She pushed the menu over.
Greg wos surprised os he osked ogoin, "Did you heor whot I soid?"
"I did. Didn't you soy thot you met Genevieve? Now thot you've finished tolking to her, let's eot. I'mhungry."
Abigoil's demeonor wos colm, but Greg wos irritoted.
"Aren't you jeolous ot oll?"
"Hoven't you broken up with her? In thot cose, why should I be jeolous? Are you going to rekindle yourrelotionship with her?" Abigoil osked lightly, but her goze wos very cleor.
All of o sudden, Greg wos frustroted.
"No, but your reoction frustrotes me, okoy? You moke me feel like you don't core obout me ot oll."
Greg spoke like o child who hod been wronged.
He thinks thot I don't core?
Abigoil poused slightly.
If I don't care, why did I kill monsters like crazy in the game just now?
If I don't care, why was I unwilling to order food when I'm clearly hungry?
However, Abigail did not say these words.
Why should I tell him so much if I don't even know how long we'll last?
"It doesn't prove if I care about you or not. I believe in your character. Since you said you broke up withher, of course I'll believe that you broke up with her. I don't think you are a man who would be with twowomen at the same time, after all."
"That's for sure." When Greg heard Abigail say this, he agreed quickly.
"In that case, what are you still struggling with? Shouldn't trust be the most important thing betweenboyfriend and girlfriend?"
Greg was rendered speechless by her words.
Does she trust me?
Just because she said these words, Greg decided to protect her to the end.
He was a relatively gallant person, so as long as she was with him, he would protect and pamper herregardless of right or wrong, and others would not be able to make a move against her.
Thinking of this, Greg's mood improved inexplicably.
"What would you like to eat? It's my treat today."
He pushed the menu in front of Abigail again.
Abigail shook her head when she saw Greg's mood changing so quickly. This man was really hard tounderstand.
However, she was really hungry and started ordering after taking the menu over. She had no appetitejust now, but now that Greg was sitting opposite her, she felt really hungry.
She ordered two dishes, and Greg ordered two more for himself as well.
"Why don't you order a few more? Are these enough?" Greg asked for Abigail's opinion.
Abigail shook her head slightly and said, "It's enough for two people to eat four dishes. There is noneed to order so many dishes as it would be a waste. The two children at home will have something toeat too. I have been to Africa before for work, and many people there don't even have proper food."
Greg paused when he heard Abigail say this.
There used to be positions in the hospital for doctors to go to Africa and support the medical treatmentthere. Genevieve had been arranged to go there too, but she ended up paying another doctor to go onbehalf of her.
At that time, Greg didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this. The world was inherentlyunfair, so why should she suffer when she had money to enjoy?
However, when he heard how Abigail spoke calmly about going to Africa to support the people there,he suddenly felt that his previous mindset was wrong.
Abigail was a doctor who truly observed medical ethics. Even though she was famous, she only didwhat a doctor should do and never overstepped her boundaries.
Needless to say, this down-to-earth temperament of hers was more fascinating and admirable thanGenevieve's.
As soon as Abigail looked up, she saw Greg staring straight at her. His eyes were full of inexplicableemotions, so she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
"No, I suddenly feel that you're a really good person. It's great to have you as my girlfriend."
The sudden compliment made Abigail a little embarrassed.
"Eat up."
She quickly lowered her head, but her heart beat a little faster.
Seriously, Greg is really a master at seducing girls.
Abigail's heart was beating like thunder, but Greg raised the corners of his lips.
Why is this woman so cute? The dishes are not even out yet, so why is she telling me to eat up? Whatam I supposed to eat? The table?
All of a sudden, Greg laughed.
Abigail had also noticed her mistake and glared at him, so the man hurriedly turned his head away butcontinued to smile. Just then, he saw something interesting from the corner of his eye.
