Not One, But Two!

Chapter 88

Someone suddenly opened the door to the bathroom, and Hugh's familiar face immediately appeared in front of Abigail.

"Abbie, it's me."

His face was a little pale, and the bandages on his body were already soaked red from the blood.

Abigail frowned slightly. "Were you risking your life again? Am I some sort of free healthcare facility for you?"

Despite saying that, Abigail still fetched the medicine kit skillfully and said to Hugh, "Take off your clothes and lie down on the bed."

"Okay."

Hugh obediently did as he was told.

As he watched Abigail, he felt his heart melt.

He remembered that time when he put Alissa in danger because of what he did. Even until today, he was still remorseful about it.

"Abbie, I'm so sorry for last time, for not handling Allie's matters better. Where is she? I want to give her something as an apology."

Suddenly, Abigail's hands paused. She could see Alissa in her mind, gasping for air and barely holding on.

To be honest, Abigail knew that she couldn't blame Hugh for that. It was her fault for trusting Hugh too much and letting her child stay in that dangerous place. However, this man kept saying that he would treat the children as his own, and she realized she must have believed him all these years.

In crucial moments, he might have left due to pressing matters, but for Alissa, it was a disaster.

These few days, Abigail kept wondering what Greg would have done.

Would he also leave Alissa alone, like Hugh did?

As she recalled how Greg risked his life to save Alissa, Abigail thought he definitely wouldn't do what Hugh did.

Greg absolutely wouldn't leave Alissa alone in that place.

She didn't think much of it without the comparison, but once she put the two side by side, she couldn't keep her calm anymore.

Seeing Abigail in a daze, Hugh called her name.

"Abbie, are you listening?"

Abigail instantly came to her senses. Even though there wasn't much of a change in her gaze, Hugh had been with her for so many years that he could still sense the shift in Abigail's emotions. He instantly panicked a little.

"Abbie, are you still upset with me? You can hit me and scold me if you want to, and if that's not enough, you can give me a few stabs as well. Just don't ignore me, please. I really didn't think anything would happen to Allie."

Hugh gripped Abigail's hand tightly, the wounds on his body opening again due to his movements. Blood began to seep out, and Abigail couldn't help but sigh at the smell of blood.

"I'll dress your wounds first."

"You don't have to dress my wounds if you haven't forgiven me. Just leave me to die, for I deserved it. I owe Allie one."

Hugh was absolutely serious when he said it.

Abigail was furious. "What are you doing now? Threatening me? Hugh, this is your own body and your own life. If you don't want it anymore, you can leave right now!"

At this point, Abigail was done being nice.

Hugh realized then that she was really mad, so he couldn't help but throw away all his pride.

"Abbie, you really don't care if I lived or died anymore?"

"I don't have the capacity to."

Abigail tossed the medicine kit to Hugh, then got up to leave.

Hugh wanted to go after her, but he stopped because of his wounds. Even when he yelped on purpose, Abigail didn't turn to look at him.

The loud bang of the door conveyed the fact that Abigail was not in a good mood.
