Not One, But Two!
Chapter 92
Chapter 92
"Abbie, you smell so nice." Hugh inhaled deeply, feeling as if he could suck all the smells on Abigail's body into his lungs.
Abigail was exasperated. "Do you have a death wish?"
"Ahem!" Hugh hastily changed out his leery expression. He had no choice, for Abigail was a tough nut to crack when she got angry.
"What happened to your face?" Hugh finally noticed the small bumps on Abigail's face. "Is that your allergic reaction? Which idiot gave you roses?"
Abigail was immediately upset at the mention of those roses. "Forget about it. Let's get to business."
"Your face is business enough. Have you gone to the hospital? Do you need to apply some sort of cream? Come, I'll take you to the hospital." As Hugh spoke, he reached out to grab Abigail's arm.
Abigail thought that Hugh was being extra naggy today. "Stop that. I've already applied some ointment. I have something more important to talk to you about."
Abigail took the ruby necklace from her pocket and passed it to Hugh. Surprised, Hugh took the necklace.
"Is this a token of your love?"
"Are you a woman? Would you need to wear this at all?" Abigail gave him a cold glare.
Hugh chuckled shyly and examined the necklace in his hands. "It's a nice necklace you have here. What about it?"
"This is my mother's, and her boyfriend gave it to her as a present. For some reason, my father got his hands on it sometime after. I recently received news that my mother was spotted in Seaferon, and since that's your territory, can you do some investigations for me? Just notify me as soon as you receive any news."
Hugh was stunned at Abigail's words. "Your mother? Hasn't she passed away?"
"She's still alive. Hugh, do you know how much I want to find her?" Abigail's eyes sparkled with excitement. "You'll never understand how much a child longs for their parents' love."
"I do, actually." The look in Hugh's eyes darkened.
"I was an orphan, and my godfather took me in. I thought I could obtain familial love and my own family, but I was too naive. My godfather was in the shady business, and he took in 4 sons just to find an heir among them. We may call each other brothers, but the four of us have been fighting and competing with each other since we were young. We'd plot against each other while guarding ourselves against each other's plots. All this while, I've longed for familial love and warmth more than anyone, but sadly, I learned that I couldn't get them. People in the gray area don't have the right to be happy." Hugh smiled bitterly.
Abigail suddenly thought of Greg. He, too, lived in the gray area, but why was he never depressed and negative? Perhaps because he had a mother who loved him.
"Everyone has a choice, Hugh. It's possible for you to leave your adopted father and do something else."
"You don't understand, Abigail. This is a path of no return. Do you really think nothing will happen after we wash our hands of our crimes? Once you do that, those people you've killed and wronged will come to your doorstep, and you'd have lost the power that shielded you. You'd only be killed, and you won't even have the power to protect your loved ones. So we can never get out unless we die."
