Chapter 101
Seeing Abigail smile, Greg also felt his mood getting better.
How many years has it been since I last felt my heartbeat quicken at the sight of a woman's smile?
Greg couldn't even remember himself.
He was just a wee kid when he started pursuing Genevieve, and one smile from her was enough for him to get excited the entire day. When he knew that Genevieve was two-timing him much later on, he lost that excitement, feeling only sorrow and injustice.
He couldn't figure out which aspect of him was inferior to Cody.
He had everything Cody had and even more. Why would Genevieve want to be Mrs. Kottler regardless?
He had spent ten long years wondering about that.
It wasn't that he had pursued Genevieve for ten years simply because he wasn't willing to admit defeat; he simply hadn't met another woman who gave him the butterflies in the stomach, so he just dragged it on and compromised.
Now, Abigail's smile was like a thorned rose that dazzled brightly. Greg knew that roses were difficult to pick, but he couldn't help it regardless.
Moreover, after sleeping with her five years ago, he had spent his subsequent years like a monk.
He had previously abstained himself from Genevieve because he knew that the woman was leading him on while crushing on Cody, but the more he thought about it, that night five years ago had such a lasting impression on him that he no longer had room for other women in his heart.
Needless to say, it was true that the body was more honest than the heart.
Upon thinking about this, Greg smiled a silly smile.
Abigail thought the man looked like a pervert.
"What are you smiling about?"
"Nothing. I was just remembering that night five years ago, and I think I don't exactly hate being on the run. At least I got the chance to meet you, and I even slept—"
Before Greg could finish talking, Abigail took some chicken and stuffed it in his mouth.
"Shut up and eat!"
Abigail said fiercely, but her face had turned an unnatural red.
How beautiful she looks right now!
Greg thought she was a nice sight to see.
His eyes had a slightly crazed look to it, and it was so obvious that Abigail couldn't focus on eating.
"How am I supposed to eat like that?"
She put down her cutlery, furious.
"Sorry, let's keep eating."
Greg hastily swallowed the contents in his mouth. However, he forgot that it was a piece of chicken, so he choked on it.
He coughed so hard that his face went red, whereas Abigail had never seen such a stupid man before.
How is it possible to get a piece of chicken bone stuck in one's throat? How did this man even grow up?
Abigail sighed before she got up, walked over to him, and gave his back a solid slap.
Following that, Greg gave one last cough.
He felt the bone shooting out of his throat, and he watched as it landed on Abigail's plate.
Abigail froze.
Upon hearing Greg's coughing fit, the owner went up to them and realized that Greg had choked on a chicken bone. She asked worriedly, "Are you okay? Should we get you to the hospital?"
Greg said hastily, "It's fine, my girlfriend is a doctor herself. Everything's fine now, so don't worry."
The owner never thought that such a pretty girl would actually be a doctor. She said in admiration, "You're a doctor? Can I visit you if I get sick in the future?"
Abigail was stunned, but considering how the owner seemed to be on good terms with Greg, she was about to say yes when she heard Greg say, "Mrs. Broddes, she's busy with surgeries every day, so don't you even bother. If you get sick, you can just come to see me and I'll get the medicine for you."
Seeing how protective Greg was toward Abigail, Niene Broddes smiled and went inside.
