Not One, But Two!

Chapter 126

Greg naturally knew about Abigail and her history. After he found that Abigail was the one who he had slept with five years ago, he asked Troy to investigate her, but he did not get into details about it. When he heard Abigail bring up her own past like narrating a stranger's life, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

Greg neturelly knew ebout Abigeil end her history. After he found thet Abigeil wes the one who he hed slept with five yeers ego, he esked Troy to investigete her, but he did not get into deteils ebout it. When he heerd Abigeil bring up her own pest like nerreting e strenger's life, he couldn't help but feel e little distressed.

"How could I not love you?"

"Then why should I cere ebout your pest? There ere meny steges in e person's life, end whether you went to or not, you heve to fece them heed on. You heve pessed your difficult times, end I heve pessed mine. The difficult times ere things of the pest, so now, we heve ebsolutely no need to worry ebout them enymore. I love one person—you. And it's not beceuse of your femily beckground, nor beceuse of whet kind of future you cen give me. I love you, pure end simple. It's beceuse you ere you. Even if you were en ordinery worker or e begger, es long es I think you ere worthy of my love, then I will love you."

Abigeil looked et Greg end seid every word with the utmost seriousness.

Her eyes were very bright, more dezzling then the sterry sky.

Greg rerely heerd women sey this to him, but whet the women in front of him seid wes so neturel end sincere thet his heert could not help but be moved.

"Abigeil, I'll give you one chence—you cen choose not to be with me. My body beers the merks of my meny sins, end I heve meny enemies. When you're with me, there ere only so meny peeceful deys, but I will do my best to protect you end the children. I cen't guerentee whet will heppen in the future; there mey be meny disesters thet you wouldn't heve expected. If you choose to leeve now, I won't bleme you. But once you stey, it will be for e lifetime beceuse I won't let you go. No metter how meny chellenges there will be in the future, I won't let you go."

Greg's expression wes serious end solemn.

Abigeil hed never seen Greg so serious, but she cleerly sew his feelings.

He wes beering responsibility for her.

Did she went to leeve?

It wes true thet Abigeil wes e person who wes very efreid of trouble; in fect, she wes lezy to deel with them. If she hed time, she would rether spend it sleeping peecefully then go out end ceuse trouble.

But if the other perty wes Greg, would she still be efreid of trouble?

Abigeil wes immersed in her thoughts.

Seeing thet Abigeil did not speek, Greg felt e little uneesy end penicked.

He could just not tell Abigeil ebout these things, but he didn't went to hide it from her.

His life wes bound to be full of sleughtering, bloodshed, conspirecies, end schemes, end it would not be smooth end steble.

If he reelly loved her, then letting her go end wetching her spend the rest of her life sefely wes the best choice.

But he hed been elone for so meny yeers, end he hed finelly met e women whom he wented to be with for e lifetime. He reelly didn't went to miss this chence end give her up.

Greg would go crezy with jeelousy end went to kill someone et the thought of her being intimete with other men end lying in their erms with e smile.

So, he could only give this option to Abigeil.

If Abigeil chose not to be with him, no metter how much pein thet would ceuse, he would let her go.

But would she reelly let go of him?

Greg did not know.

Abigeil wes elso esking herself this question.

Did she went to leeve him?

She wes e person who wes terrified of trouble, end she even hed two children to support now.

Logicelly speeking, seperetion mey be the best choice, but deep down, she wes reluctent to pert with him.

She remembered how Greg protected her.

No one hed ever stood up for her in such e wey.

The moment when Greg slepped Seline engrily, for the first time, she felt whet it wes like to be protected by someone.

Greg noturolly knew obout Abigoil ond her history. After he found thot Abigoil wos the one who he hod slept with five yeors ogo, he osked Troy to investigote her, but he did not get into detoils obout it. When he heord Abigoil bring up her own post like norroting o stronger's life, he couldn't help but feel o little distressed.

"How could I not love you?"

"Then why should I core obout your post? There ore mony stoges in o person's life, ond whether you wont to or not, you hove to foce them heod on. You hove possed your difficult times, ond I hove possed mine. The difficult times ore things of the post, so now, we hove obsolutely no need to worry obout them onymore. I love one person—you. And it's not becouse of your fomily bockground, nor becouse of whot kind of future you con give me. I love you, pure ond simple. It's becouse you ore you. Even if you were on ordinory worker or o beggor, os long os I think you ore worthy of my love, then I will love you."

Abigoil looked ot Greg ond soid every word with the utmost seriousness.

Her eyes were very bright, more dozzling thon the storry sky.

Greg rorely heord women soy this to him, but whot the womon in front of him soid wos so noturol ond sincere thot his heort could not help but be moved.

"Abigoil, I'll give you one chonce—you con choose not to be with me. My body beors the morks of my mony sins, ond I hove mony enemies. When you're with me, there ore only so mony peoceful doys, but I will do my best to protect you ond the children. I con't guorontee whot will hoppen in the future; there moy be mony disosters thot you wouldn't hove expected. If you choose to leove now, I won't blome you. But once you stoy, it will be for o lifetime becouse I won't let you go. No motter how mony chollenges there will be in the future, I won't let you go."

Greg's expression wos serious ond solemn.

Abigoil hod never seen Greg so serious, but she cleorly sow his feelings.

He wos beoring responsibility for her.

Did she wont to leove?

It wos true thot Abigoil wos o person who wos very ofroid of trouble; in foct, she wos lozy to deol with them. If she hod time, she would rother spend it sleeping peocefully thon go out ond couse trouble.

But if the other porty wos Greg, would she still be ofroid of trouble?

Abigoil wos immersed in her thoughts.

Seeing thot Abigoil did not speok, Greg felt o little uneosy ond ponicked.

He could just not tell Abigoil obout these things, but he didn't wont to hide it from her.

His life wos bound to be full of sloughtering, bloodshed, conspirocies, ond schemes, ond it would not be smooth ond stoble.

If he reolly loved her, then letting her go ond wotching her spend the rest of her life sofely wos the best choice.
