Not One, But Two!

Chapter 30

When Abigail came out, Greg quickly went up to her. "So? Is she okay?"

"She's fine. Just a bit shocked, so she's asleep. She just needs some rest, but she can't adapt to this place well, so she has to stay at the hospital for further observation. We'll need to take a sample of her excrement to do some tests," Abigail lied.

Greg heaved a sigh of relief, but he was still worried. "Anything she can't eat for the time being?"

Abigail felt slightly touched that Greg was looking so nervous. She might not like him, but he was a passable father. Then, she remembered that Greg saw her when she was looking murderous, and she felt slightly miffed. "She has to eat light meals, and nothing else. I have to leave now."

"Going to the Kains? I think you should go tomorrow. It's late now."

Abigail's face fell. "I know. Take care of Alissa."

"Here, have some hot water. I just got it for you. Put your stuff aside for now. Your hands feel cold. Are you—"

"Don't get so concerned over me, Greg! And don't even think you need to help me just because you saw me in a slightly bad situation. I don't need it!"

Abigail thought it was weird seeing Greg like that. He's supposed to be in the uppermost society. Why is he caring for a normal girl like me so much? And she left.

Greg looked at the mug of water, and he smiled. "I must be mad. That woman is made of steel. She can't feel sad." He gulped the water down and told Troy, "I want to know why Emma was arrested. It must have something to do with Abigail."

"Yes, sir."

Troy found out what happened a moment later, and he told Greg about it. Greg frowned, and Troy said, "Emma's a shameless one. Dr. Kain—"

"She has a black card? No wonder she said she can pay for the damages she did," Greg suddenly said, and Troy was dumbfounded.

Pay for the damages? Who?

Greg ignored him, and all he could think about was Abigail's matter. She's rich. I don't have to deal with the Kains with her around. Good. I'll spend some time with my daughter then. "Troy, delegate all duties to the top management if possible. Come to me if it really calls for it. I want to spend some time with my daughter."

Troy paused for a moment, then he asked, "Sir, don't you want to do another paternity test?"
