Not One, But Two!

Chapter 129

Greg suddenly panicked.

"Are you mad at me?" he asked.

"No."

"But you look very serious now. You must be angry."

Greg's words rendered Abigail speechless.

"I'm serious because I really want to talk to you. I hope that we can communicate when we have something to say. Don't hide or hold it in, because if we do, both of us will be uncomfortable. I am a simple-minded person, and I don't like to think about complicated things, so isn't this the way to resolve things well?"

Her words made Greg ponder for a long time.

Is this really true?

Immediately, he remembered that when Genevieve said no, she actually meant yes, and she even said that all women were like this. And when Abigail said that he could ask her directly, did she mean the opposite? So she meant that she didn't like for him to ask about things between her and Hugh?

Greg's brain was running at high speed, and then he continued with a smile, "Forget it. I won't ask you about this anymore, alright?"

This time, Abigail was really pissed off.

What the hell is up with this man?

He clearly cares, and he wants to know what's going on between me and Hugh, but now he's acting like this. Is he playing hard-to-get?

Abigail became a little irritable.

She threw the vegetables on the counter, and her expression was not very good.

When he saw her like this, Greg felt a little annoyed as well.

"I already said that I will stop asking, so what else do you want? He came to you in the middle of the night, so as your boyfriend, what kind of man would I be if I didn't stop him? I don't care about how you and he used to be. I just hope that you and I can be happy together. So if you don't want to say anything, then don't; if you don't want me to mention this anymore, then I won't either. Okay?"

Greg's tone turned a little cold.

Abigail didn't expect that Greg was the one who stopped Hugh when he came by last night, and she became troubled for a while.

"There's nothing between us. To be precise, he saved me. If Hugh didn't save me five years ago, I wouldn't be here today, and our children wouldn't be born. We would have all died at sea, been buried in the belly of a fish, or even become corpses."

When she said this, Abigail's tone somewhat softened.

"I have always regarded him as a family member. You know that I lack love, and I've always wanted a brother to protect me—Hugh played this role perfectly. He would help me when I needed help, and he would stand up for me when I was bullied; he even helped me educate my children when I was busy. We are family members. That's all. Of course, I know that he has feelings for me, but I don't feel the same way about him. If I did, we would've been together five years ago, and I wouldn't even be here with you. Hugh wouldn't care who the biological father of Arianna and Alissa is."

When Abigail said this, Greg got a little nervous.

"Though he doesn't care, I do! I don't want my daughters to have anyone else as their father."

"Then why are you yelling at me?"

Abigail stared at him, somewhat aggrieved.

Greg was suddenly at a loss.

"I didn't! My voice was just louder!"

In the end, Greg couldn't lie anymore.

Well, he was indeed a little angry just now.

He just couldn't get used to Hugh being so nice to his girlfriend.

But he wouldn't dare to say this to Abigail.

It was true that Hugh saved the three of them, and he owed him for that alone.

"Alright, alright. I was wrong, okay?"

Greg was the first to apologize with a strong desire to protect their relationship.

For a man, showing weakness with his own woman was not shameful. After all, it was all to maintain family harmony.

Greg told himself so.

Greg told himself so.

He had apologized, so Abigail didn't stay angry at him anymore.

She was someone who could be easily persuaded with a soft approach. Now that Greg had apologized, what else could she say?

"I was in the wrong too. I shouldn't have thrown things. I was also in a bad mood. In the morning, Hugh came to ask me why I was with you. He sounded as if I had cheated on him, but he clearly knew the relationship between me and him. So, I spoke harshly, and I think I hurt him. Anyway, I hurt him, and I felt bad about it, so I was also quick to anger, " Abigail said, causing Greg to feel a little distressed for her.

"I am to blame, okay? I was being a selfish jerk. Don't be angry, okay? Come on. Hug me, and you won't be angry anymore."

Greg stretched out his arms and hugged her.

His familiar smell struck her, bringing her close to tears.
