Married At First Sight Chapter 3942 Chapter 3942

Abby smiled reassuringly at her mother. "Don't worry, Mom. If I ever fall in love again, I'll take my time-years, even before I even think about marriage. I'm really not in any rush." Mrs. Du smiled, her confidence in her daughter evident. "I know you'll make the right choice."

Her daughter, after all, was no ordinary young woman. Abby had been raised and trained by a hermit, a master known as Silver Fox. Mrs. Du often felt a pang of guilt for not being more present in Abby's upbringing, but her daughter's strength, independence, and skills were all thanks to her master.

Then Mrs. Du's tone shifted. "But there's something I need to tell you-Evan's here. He's standing outside our house. He said he wants to see you."

Abby's expression didn't betray her inner thoughts, though she feigned surprise. "What? What's he doing here?" she asked, her voice tinged with mock confusion.

Mrs. Du huffed. "Who knows? He didn't give us an explanation, just insisted he wanted to see you. After what he did to you playing with your feelings like that-your father and I have every reason to be furious. We've been holding back for your sake, but now he shows up at our door? It's not that simple." Abby didn't say anything, but she wasn't exactly eager to see Evan either.

Mrs. Du continued, her voice firm. "Your father told him to take off his coat and stand outside for two hours. If he's sincere enough to do that, I told your dad I'd come up here and let you know."

Abby's eyebrows shot up in disbelief. "Mom, it's freezing out there! Even with a heavy coat, he'd still be cold. But without one? How is he supposed to survive in this weather? It's below ten degrees and windy!"
