Not One, But Two!

Chapter 39

Chapter 39

Arianna had rarely seen Abigail sporting such a dark expression, so she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, Mommy?"

"Nothing. I'll be going out for a while, so stay here and don't go anywhere. When your daddy comes back, just tell him I'm not around." Upon finishing her words, Abigail lifted the quilt and got out of the bed. She hadn't gotten changed since last night, so her clothes were all wrinkled. Abigail frowned, for she couldn't bear to wear these clothes. However, if I go back to the hotel now… She sighed and opened the door, only to see Troy standing outside the ward.

"Good morning, Dr. Kain."

"Morning." A doubtful Abigail subconsciously asked, "Doesn't Greg have to work today? What are you doing here?"

Troy hurriedly passed the stuff in his hands to her. "Mr. Buckley said that these are for you."

Abigail took a glance and realized they were new clothes and shoes. She had hurled the shoes he bought for her into the trash can the day before, and it embarrassed him very much. Therefore, she thought that a conceited man like him would never do such a thing again, but she never expected that he'd prepare new clothes for her. She was slightly touched, but she couldn't put her feelings into words. It was a strange yet warm feeling. "Please help me to thank him."

"Mr. Buckley said that this is the bill, and you'll just have to transfer the money to his Venmo account. This is his email address."

Troy's words surprised Abigail. After taking a look at the bill and the email address, she became startled for a moment before she burst into laughter. He's pretty interesting. I told him yesterday that I'd give the money back to him, and he remembers it. What a petty man!

"Got it." She took the clothes and shoes before returning to the ward.

With her hands supporting her chin, Arianna said with a smile, "Mommy, Daddy is really good to you."

"He's good to me? He wants the money back. It's not like these things are free." Abigail was speechless at Arianna's blind admiration for her father.

However, Arianna asked with a smile, "Mommy, if Daddy gave it to you for free, would you still take it?"

Of course not! Certainly, Abigail wouldn't say it. After flashing a smile at her daughter, she went into the restroom to get changed. It had to be said that Greg was adept at visual measurement, for the clothes fit her perfectly. When she stepped out of the restroom, she saw Troy holding a set of cosmetics, which was the latest collection that didn't have a strong scent. She loved it. "Thanks. How much are all these things? Give me a figure, and I'll transfer the money to him later."

After putting on some makeup, she felt much better.

Just then, Troy walked over with a cup of ginger tea. "Mr. Buckley told me that you're sick. It's clever of you if you want to infect the Kains with your illness, but it'll also harm yourself, so it's rather inappropriate. He said that you'd better recuperate first."
