Not One, But Two!

Chapter 37

After Abigail entered the ward, she wanted to cover Arianna with a quilt, but Greg did that before she could. Just when she wanted to touch her daughter's forehead, her hand was slapped away by the man. Even if she were a mild-tempered person, she would've gotten mad. Moreover, she wasn't a benevolent person to begin with. "Greg, are you trying to fight with me?"

"What's wrong? Do you want to kick my chest again? I'll have my chest scanned later. If any of my organs have been harmed because of you, I'll get my lawyer to sue you."

The corner of Abigail's mouth twitched when she heard that. She was fully aware of how much force she had exerted when she kicked him. "Why did you get into a fight with him?"

She had asked Hugh the same question, but he never gave her a clear answer.

Greg replied coldly, "Why? I saw my daughter in a stranger's arms. Why do you think I beat him up? I thought he was a human trafficker!"

At that, Abigail became startled. A human trafficker? She had never thought of this possibility. However, seeing as Greg was infuriated, she suddenly felt guilty. "I'm so sorry. I didn't know it was you. I wasn't wearing my contact lens when I went downstairs, so I couldn't see clearly. I thought that someone was harming Hugh and my daughter, so…"

Her apology stunned Greg. This woman actually said sorry to me? "Are you apologizing to me?"

"Yes, I'm apologizing for the mistake I've made. Isn't that normal? I'll examine your chest later, and I'll also pay for all the medical fees."

Upon finishing her words, she went over to check on the intravenous drip that her daughter was on.

Greg wasn't an affected man. Now that Abigail had apologized, the displeasure he felt had diminished. "Forget it. I'm fine, so I'll just go home and apply some ointment."

"I'd better check on you to make sure everything is okay." Then, Abigail motioned for him to take off his clothes.

All of a sudden, Greg felt bashful. Why do I feel so uncomfortable? He recalled the time when this woman forced herself upon him five years ago.

Seeing that his face had reddened, Abigail broke into laughter. "Why do you look so embarrassed? Are you shy? It's not like I've never seen you naked before, you know."

After she was done speaking, the two of them were stunned. She had the urge to stitch her mouth up. What did I just say? It's as if I still reminisce about it.

On the other hand, Greg appeared embarrassed as well. He coughed and quickly unbuttoned his shirt, which revealed his lean upper body.

All of a sudden, Abigail started blushing, but when she saw the bruise on the man's chest, her expression changed. "I suggest you get your chest scanned."
