Not One, But Two!
Chapter 145
Chapter 145
Abigail's face turned grim when she heard what Greg said.
"What do you mean, Greg Buckley?"
She knew that he was concerned about her previous relationship with Jonathan, but that was long over.
Why wasn't this man over it yet?
Greg, of course, sensed her dissatisfaction, and he replied with a ruffian attitude, "Sorry, I forgot that you no longer like Jonathan. My fault. We'll go to Kain Residence then. I believe Philip would welcome me. Why not give him a call now?"
This time, Abigail didn't say a word.
She had accepted that Philip was not her father, but she was still doubtful about many things.
In fact, she wanted to look for him, but she lacked the courage to do so—not because she was afraid of him, but because she was afraid of hearing answers that she didn't want to hear.
For the first time, Greg saw this woman, who was always arrogant in front of him, revealing her vulnerability and insecurity.
And his heart ached.
Was he pushing her too hard?
But shouldn't such matters be resolved quickly?
Whether it was good or bad, the truth had to be known so she could plan her next move, no?
Abigail had been preoccupied with Teal's matter these few days, and her busyness might last for a while. But why did she save Teal, someone who was unrelated and unknown to her?
Besides the nature of her job, wasn't this her way of withdrawing from what was happening and diverting her emotions?
Ever since he met her, she had been looking for her biological mother. However, Stanley failed to provide her with useful information even after so many days. Even if important clues were given, she was already less active in her search for her mom than before.
And now, she found out that Philip was not her biological father. She must be feeling terrible and regarding herself as an unwanted orphan.
With these in his mind, he moved forward and hugged Abigail. A faint smell of tobacco filled her nose and she felt uncomfortable at that instant.
"Why are you forcing me?"
She was not stupid, and exactly because she wasn't stupid, she knew that the reason he mentioned Jonathan earlier was to prepare her so that she wouldn't be that upset when she was reminded of Philip.
Why would she be upset?
That man had never treated her as his daughter, not even for one day!
However, even after reminding herself of this for umpteen times, there was still a lump in her throat, and her eyes still welled up with tears.
Like a drowning child, she clutched Greg's shirt tightly, increasing the folds in his neatly ironed shirt. However, that did not bother him, and his entire attention was on the woman before him.
He always thought Abigail was an arrogant woman who lived carefreely. Regardless of what happened five years ago, the Abigail now five years later couldn't care less about the Kain Family and Jonathan, and she would even argue back whenever they offended her, with no tolerance given.
From the outside, this woman appeared to be proud and fearless, but at this moment, he saw her timidity and desires beneath her appearance—her desires for kinship and love.
She was a woman in need of love.
Though appearing tough, her heart was as soft as a sponge.
