Chapter 176

Just as Abigail was wondering what she should do, Greg emerged.

"How is she?" Abigail unconsciously let out a relieved sigh.

Slightly stunned, Greg was shocked when he saw Abigail's nervousness.

He thought no one in this world could make Abigail nervous.

He then looked at Valerie, bewildered.

Are you kidding? Mom can actually make Abigail nervous? At that level?

As Greg pondered, he hastily smiled and said, "She's sleeping soundly. I had Allie stay in the room to accompany her. Let's go now. You said you're hungry, right? Let's go get some groceries and come back to make dinner."

"Okay."

Abigail hastily nodded, then smiled at Valerie and said, "Madam Valerie, we'll be going out now."

"Sure."

Almost immediately after Valerie finished speaking, Abigail dragged Greg along as she left the house.

Greg waited until they were outside before asking with a smile, "What's wrong? What did my mom talk to you about? Why were you so nervous? What a rare sight to see our great Dr. Kain getting so nervous."

"That was your mom! My boyfriend's mother and my future mother-in-law! Also, I'm not great at conversations. She was my patient, sure, but we never had to talk about anything other than her illness. Now that we're in a different position, I don't know what I should say."

Abigail spoke sullenly, but Greg thought it quite adorable.

"You don't have to be so nervous; she's just an old woman. You even hit Sasha before, so why would you be afraid of an old woman like my mom?"

"That's different, all right? Also, I can't hit your mom, can I?"

Abigail thought Greg had some screws loose.

"Okay, fine, I'm here to rescue you, aren't I? Come on, let's go shopping, then we'll go to the kitchen to do some cooking. You won't have to be scared about facing my mom alone. Just let Allie and Aria deal with that old woman."

Greg put an arm around Abigail's shoulder like it was the most natural thing in the world, then smiled as he led her into the car.

After starting the car, Greg turned on the music player and found some relaxing light music to play.

Abigail's tense emotions relaxed considerably as Greg drove smoothly. Throughout their journey, Greg was focused on driving, but Abigail somehow knew that his mind was occupied with something else.

He was okay just now, but he became like this after going to Arianna's room. Apparently, something had happened while he was there.

Arianna was sleeping, so it could only be Alissa's doing.

At the thought of Alissa, Abigail could more or less figure out what Greg had learned.

However, Abigail was glad to know that he could refrain from asking. This meant that he trusted her. At that thought, Abigail began to talk calmly.

"Allie hit a kid from next door, and the kid had to be hospitalized. Did she tell you that?"

"Huh?"

Greg was a little shocked, and he hastily asked, "What happened?"

"She didn't tell you about it?" Abigail's eyes seemed to see through him, and Greg felt like he had nowhere to hide.

"Say, woman, it's not good to be so smart. People will try to silence you by killing you."
