Chapter 120


    Apparently, Greg was displeased. "Who is calling at the wrong time? Don''t they know I''m trying to


    please my girlfriend?"


    His aggrieved tune made Abigailugh. This dummy. "It isn''t like the caller can see what I''m doing.


    Alright, I''ll try them onter. I''ll pick up the call first."


    With the phone in her hand, she stepped onto the balcony and closed the door.


    Greg narrowed his eagle-like eyes and stared at her before falling into his thoughts. This woman can''t


    even pick up a call in front of me. Why are there so many secrets with her? However, he didn''t say


    anything else as he put the stuff on the table and took off his coat. Then, he rolled up his sleeves and


    ambled into the kitchen.


    Upon seeing that the caller was n, Abigail picked it up. "What''s wrong again?"


    She was currently on leave, so she wasn''t willing to take on any tasks. Unless it was Greg who was


    facing a problem, she wouldn''t ept any new jobs.


    Upon hearing her impatient tone, n said helplessly, "Abigail, most people are pursuing money, but


    you''re pushing it away."


    Abigail didn''t respond to him. In the first two years after giving birth to her kids, she was short of money.


    Due to the fact that one of her children was in poor health, she needed to provide a healthy


    environment for her. Therefore, she had no choice but to ept many jobs. Now that her life was on


    track, she just needed enough money to get by. After all, the money she would get after performing


    surgeries would be sufficient.


    n knew that she didn''t bother replying to him, so he sighed and uttered, "I can''t force you to take on


    new tasks, but I''ve called to tell you that some people are investigating you."


    "Who are they?"


    "Greg and Ethan. Even though their hackers are unable to break through your defense system, you


    know that things will be troublesome if this drags on. Moreover, I''ve gathered some information


    that you should be aware of lest you offend him in the future without knowing it."


    His words made Abigail frown. Offend him? Is he talking about Ethan? It''s indeed difficult to deal with


    him, and he must have a powerful background as his support. "Alright, go ahead."


    Upon hearing her dispassionate voice, n thought that he was unlucky since he had found such an


    employer. "Ethan is the third prince of Marona."


    His words startled Abigail. He''s a prince? It''s no wonder that he''s so conceited and brash. She couldn''t


    help but recall that Ethan was afraid of Greg while they were still in Marona back then. Does Greg have


    something to do with Ethan? "Find out the rtionship between Greg and Ethan for me."


    n paused for a moment before saying, "We''re unable to gather such information."


    "What? n, are you telling me that there''s some information in this world that we can''t gather?" This


    made Abigail feel surprised.


    A dejected n replied, "Apart from what everyone already knows, we can''t dig deeper into Greg''s


    background. In fact, it seems as though all the information has been deliberately erased. I tried


    restoring the traces, but I was unable to recover it because the other party is also rather skillful. If


    you''re interested, you can try doing that."


    Abigail scowled. She was indeed curious, but she wasn''t interested in getting Greg''s information in


    such a way. "Forget it then. Stop investigating Greg."


    "What? Don''t you think we should look into his background as well?" n didn''t understand her.


    "I said that there''s no need. Alright, don''t contact me again if there''s nothing serious. I''m busy."


    Upon finishing her words, Abigail directly hung up the call and gave n five million out of the 10


    million from Greg. n had never expected her to give him so much money, so he quickly called her


    again and asked her whether she had keyed in the wrong amount. However, Abigail hung up on him


    again as she was too busy to have a chat with him.


    It was surprising to her that Greg had aplicated background, but that didn''t really matter. She loved


    the man himself, not his background. Even if he was the president of a country, she wouldn''t think she


    wasn''t worthy of his love. After getting over it, she kept her phone and started thinking about her


    mother. Stanley still hadn''t replied to her.


    Previously, Stanley had given her a photo of her mother. Perhaps she could make use of this photo and


    look for her mother through the inte, but she wasn''t sure if she really wanted to do that. The past


    incident was unclear, and she didn''t have the courage to look into her mother''s affairs even though that


    was what she was eager to find out deep down in her heart. She sighed and left the balcony, but Greg


    was nowhere to be seen.


    He had already ced the things he had bought for her on the bed. There was a beautiful evening


    dress, and there was also a pair of crystal shoes.


    The corners of Abigail''s lips curled up. Is he treating me like I''m Cindere now? She had to admit that


    she used to be Cindere in the past. However, she had the right to decide whether she was a princess


    or a queen now. With that said, she was still moved by what the man had done for her.


    Abigail tried out the dress and realized that it looked beautiful on her as it made her look elegant and


    visually taller. After getting changed out of the dress, she shuffled downstairs and heard some noises


    coming from the kitchen. As she watched the man preparing some food in the kitchen, she felt her


    heart getting filled with emotions.


    She had always been aware that she was a woman whocked love. She never had the love of her


    parents when she was a young kid, and she had never had the love of a man when she was an adult. It


    was her belief that she would never find the right man throughout her life, but Greg just appeared one


    day and sprang into her life. The throbbing of her heart turned into an urge, so she stepped into the


    kitchen and wrapped her arms around the man from behind.


    Greg became startled for a moment before he uttered with a smile, "Why are you here? It''s all smoke


    and grease in the kitchen. Wait for me outside, and it''ll be ready soon. Even though there''ll be food at


    the banquet, it''s not meant to fill your stomach. You have some stomach problems, so you''d better eat


    something first."


    No one had ever treated her with such sincerity like Greg did, not even Philip. Hence, she knew that


    this man truly loved her. She treasured this love, but at the same time, she was worried about losing it.


    "Greg."


    "Yeah?"


    "Will you love me forever?" Her voice sounded uncertain.


    Greg felt his heart aching for no reason. This woman always gave off the impression that she was


    confident and arrogant, but now, she looked more like a helpless kid. Even though it was just a


    question, her voice was filled with uncertainty and desire. He turned around and ced his hands on


    the woman''s shoulders.


    Staring at her with his eagle-like eyes, he said lovingly, "Abigail, I''m not a womanizer, and I sincerely


    want to be with you. I want to marry you and spend the rest of my life with you, and I will always protect


    you. Don''t worry too much, okay?"


    At that instant, Abigail felt her eyes moistening. The marriage between Philip and Sasha made her feel


    afraid of getting into a rtionship with anyone. However, Greg treated her truly well, so she couldn''t


    help but want to get closer to him. She knew she had fallen for him and that she was no longer able to


    keep the feelings to herself, so she felt flustered and afraid.


    Fortunately, what Greg had said set her mind at ease. She suddenly broke intoughter, and her smile


    was as bright as the sun.

    Greg realized that just her smile was enough to make him drown in her love. "Abbie, you''re seducing


    me."


    He slowly lowered his head. Before he could reach her, Abigail directly tiptoed and kissed his lips. Her


    kiss was so passionate and domineering that he felt as though he had been swept into a tornado and


    was on the brink of falling apart. At the same time, all his cells seemed to be trembling and screaming.


    He directly confined the woman to the kitchen counter and responded to her kiss in a fervent manner.


    Soon, the temperature in the kitchen had risen sharply. Just when they were about to do the deed,


    Greg''s phone started ringing abruptly. Meanwhile, Abigail became stunned as her face was burning.


    She quickly pushed the man away and uttered, "I''ll go get some water."


    With that, she hurriedly fled from the kitchen. My goodness! It was so embarrassing! If the phone hadn''t


    started ringing, Greg and I would''ve… At the thought of the oue, she felt her heart pounding


    against her chest. Even though she was bashful, she wasn''t against the idea. Even her body started


    reacting to his desire.


    After all, it wasn''t like they never had sex before. She could still remember how fierce he was and how


    well she had coordinated with him five years ago. In fact, they seemed to be born for each other, and


    the memories of the immense pleasure and scorching passion made her tremble. All of a sudden, she


    dashed into the bathroom and patted her face with cold water. I can''t keep thinking about it anymore!


    When did I be soscivious?


    On the other hand, Greg was enraged. He could still feel his blood burning in his body, but he was


    interrupted from bing one with the woman he loved. Looking at the name on the phone screen, he


    had the urge to beat Troy up. After picking up the call, he snapped in an unfriendly tone, "You''d better


    have a serious issue. Otherwise, you''re doomed."


    Troy was stunned as he could sense Greg''s murderous intent through the phone. Instantly, he was


    drenched in cold sweat. "Mr. Buckley, I''vee here to pass you some clothes, but no one is opening


    the door."


    He felt wronged.


    An incensed Greg uttered, "Come to the adjacent house."


    After hanging up the call, he directly shuffled toward the door.


    Meanwhile, Troy was dumbfounded. The adjacent house? What is Mr. Buckley doing there? Before he


    could figure it out, he saw Greg opening the door and stepping out from there. The fact that an apron


    was wrapped around Greg made Troy''s eyes widen with surprise. My goodness! What am I seeing? Is


    Mr. Buckley cooking?


    Thinking that he was hallucinating, Troy quickly rubbed his eyes before catching sight of Greg fiercely


    scurrying over.


    "The clothes!"


    "Here." Troy subconsciously passed him the clothes.


    Looking at his subordinate who had just disturbed his intimate session, Greg suddenly asked with a


    smile, "Troy, do you have a girlfriend?"


    "What? Yeah, I do have a girlfriend." Troy had no idea why Greg asked such a question all of a sudden,


    and the eerie smile on his boss'' face sent a chill down his spine.


    However, Greg stopped asking as he nodded and uttered, "Get lost. I''ll go there myself."


    "Oh, alright."


    A puzzled Troy left the ce. Behind him, Greg was seen narrowing his eyes. How dare you disturb


    me while I was enjoying myself! I''ll also make you go through the pain of not being able to get intimate


    with your woman! Hmph!
