Not One, But Two!

Chapter 143

Sasha raised her head, and at that instant, she saw Emma's sullen expression right in front of her. Seeing that, she sighed and said, "Don't be overly worried about that. I'll make Abigail pay the price for everything she has done to you. However, we need to act with caution. Do you understand?"

"Yes."

Still frustrated, Emma went back to her room right away.

She wondered whether Jonathan knew that Victoria came here.

Thus, she immediately sent a message to him.

'I miss you, Jonathan. I couldn't look for you because my legs are still hurting, but don't forget about me just because of this.'

Jonathan, on the other hand, was disgusted by Emma's message.

He used to think that Emma was at least skillful in bed. However, after five years, it was starting to get boring. Most importantly, she had absolutely nothing to offer. There was a world of difference between her and Abigail.

He would never have been together with a stupid woman like Emma if Abigail hadn't gone f*cking around five years ago.

However, he knew that he still needed to use Emma, and so, he replied, 'Ok.'

This one-word reply of his was enough to make Emma overjoyed.

Jonathan still adores me. Emma, being the simpleton that she was, was immersed in such thoughts while hugging her phone. Little did she know that Jonathan couldn't care less about her.

Meanwhile, Abigail had just awoken from her nap after her lunch, feeling recharged.

When she went downstairs, she saw Teal sitting alone in front of the living room's floor-to-ceiling window. Abigail had no idea what was going through her mind, but she appeared sorrowful.

Walking over to Teal, Abigail said casually, "Given the state of your body, you need to get more rest. It's windy over here. Take care."

Teal was slightly startled. When she realized it was Abigail talking to her, a small smile appeared on her pale face.

"Dr. Kain, do you believe in love?"

Abigail was stumped by her question.

Do I?

In the past, she placed all her trust and love in Jonathan, believing that he was The One for her. Despite knowing that she was unworthy of him and Victoria would surely despise her, she insisted on marrying him out of the love she had for him. All of this, however, was merely wishful thinking on her part. After all, look at where they ended up now.

Occasionally, she felt that perhaps she should be grateful to Emma and her mom for making her realize the true Jonathan as early as she could, so that she could wake up to her senses that he was not one to be trusted. Though such a process was not the best to endure, things had changed for the better after her worst nightmare.

Greg, the hooligan, came to mind following this train of thought.

This man appeared to be fooling around all the time, but he had gradually worked his way into her life and her heart.

I suppose this is love?

She felt blessed being with him. If this was love, she would gladly accept it.

With these thoughts in her mind, she smiled softly.

"I do believe in it. There are so many wonderful things in the world to experience, and so many wonderful feelings to feel. Why should we not believe in it?"

Such a response of hers took Teal aback. She had never expected someone as cold as Abigail would say such a thing, but then she remembered Greg, the man who had nearly killed Quinn.
