100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Forty-Seven…

~~*****~~

Old Master Yan warned everyone. Members of the Yan Family were not allowed to help Madam Lu. She needed to face the punishment for her crimes and the consequences of her actions.

The other members of the Yan Family left the mansion. They were still shocked by tonight's revelation. Little Ethan, Madam Priyanshi, Nadia, Old Master Yan, and Abigail were gathered in the living room as they faced Nathan.

They wanted to know the details about the culprit who caused Abigail's accident. Who pushed Abigail? How did he manage to catch the culprit?

Old Master Yan was not surprised that Nathan's men captured the culprit. They were very capable.

"Nathan… tell us. What is the reason why my sister hired that guy to hurt Abigail?" Old Master Yan asked him.

"Probably, she already knew that Abigail was your missing granddaughter. Because you plan to give the Yan Group to her, Madam Lu tried to eliminate her." Nathan replied truthfully. That was the only motive he could see.

Madam Priyanshi and Old Master Yan fell silent. They agreed to this. There was no question. This had something to do with the inheritance.

"I couldn't believe that grand aunt would do that to my cousin and to you Grandpa. She schemed against you, making you sicker." Nadia shared her thoughts about this matter.

"What is your plan about this, Dad?" Madam Priyanshi consulted him.

"I will fire her. She will no longer work in the Yan Group. She won't get anything from me. I will continue to file the case against her. She has to pay for her crime. I can't forgive her for hurting my granddaughter. Starting today… she is no longer part of the Yan Family." Old Master Yan declared to them.

Abigail heaved a sigh of relief. At least, she was able to solve Abigail's case before going back to her original body. Now, her concern was Old Master Yan's health.

"Thank you, Mr. Sparks, for helping us in catching the culprit. We really appreciate it," Madam Priyanshi expressed her gratitude toward Nathan.

Old Master Yan wanted to commend Nathan as well. He just proved to them that Abigail was so important to him. Nadia, on the other hand, couldn't help but feel jealous of her cousin. She was so lucky to have Nathan as her boyfriend.

"Regarding your medication, Mr. Yan. I would recommend you to have an executive check-up at our medical facility. Our doctors will do their best to cure your illness." Nathan would like to help Old Master Yan because he thought Abigail would feel happy to see her grandpa healthy. They still had so much catching up to do.

"Grandpa, please agree… I will accompany you during your check-up. You have to stay healthy!" Abigail also spoke up, convincing the old man.

"Gramps! My Dad's facility is the best!" Ethan joined the conversation, reassuring Old Master Yan.

Madam Priyanshi and Nadia nodded their heads, supporting Nathan's recommendation. In the end, Old Master Yan gave his consent. "Alright! I will do the executive check-up in Nathan's Medical Facility."

"That's good, Dad. Now, it's time for you to take your medicine and rest. You should sleep early." Madam Priyanshi stood up and grabbed Old Master Yan's wheelchair.

"Let me take care of him, Aunt. Your husband is here to fetch you and Nadia," Abigail also stood up.

"I agree. You should go home now. Abigail will be the one to send me to my room together with Ethan." Old Master Yan enjoyed Ethan's company. The young boy was so sweet and thoughtful. He was like a mature adult when talking to him. No dull moment whenever Ethan was with him.

Madam Priyanshi and Nadia bid their goodbye. Meanwhile, Little Ethan volunteered to sleep in Old Master Yan's room. He wanted to watch over the old man.

Seeing that Old Master Yan was so fond of the young boy, Nathan and Abigail let the two bond together, allowing them to sleep in one room.

So many things happened today. Abigail felt mentally exhausted. She lay down on her bed, feeling the soft cushion of her bed. She just wanted to take rest before taking a bath.

It did not take long before she heard the knocking sound of her door. "It's me, Nathan. May I enter?"

Abigail quickly sat up after hearing Nathan's voice. Her eyes widened as she watched the closed door. She was contemplating whether she would let him in or not. What if Nathan would get intimate with her again? She wanted to avoid physical intimacy for the moment.

'Not in my room. I better entertain him on the balcony or the garden…' Abigail thought to herself.

"Wait. I'm coming."

Abigail opened the door and immediately grabbed Nathan, pulling him toward the balcony on the second floor.

"Is there something you wanna tell me?" Abigail asked him directly.

Nathan bobbed his head, but his eyes were fixed on their entangled hands. Subconsciously, Nathan squeezed her hand before tightening his grip on her.

Abigail also gazed down to look at their entangled hands. It seemed that Nathan didn't plan on letting her hand go.

'Hmm. I can see Nathan's clingy side.' Abigail bit her lower lip, her cheeks blushing.

"Ahem. What is it?" Abigail looked away, trying to divert her attention away from their hands.

"Do you know other people who want you dead? How many people have you offended?" Nathan asked her with a straight face.

Abigail was a little bit confused. "Aside from Madam Lu, I can't think of anyone. Why?"

Nathan met her gaze, not breaking their eye-to-eye contact.

"The truth is… the guy hired by Madam Lu is not the person who pushed you from the 13th floor. But she indeed paid him to kill you. But there is another party involved here… We haven't caught the real culprit yet."

Abigail's jaw dropped when she heard that. She thought Abigail's case was already solved. Who would have thought that there was still a missing piece of the puzzle?

'Gosh, Abigail Scarlett… Why do I feel like you have more enemies than I do? You are just an ordinary actress, compared to me… an assassin.' Abigail rubbed the space between her eyebrows as she sighed deeply.

Nathan squeezed her hand once more and consoled her. "Don't worry. I will get to the bottom of this. I will catch the culprit."

Abigail bobbed her head. "Thanks, Nate."

'I will also try to find the culprit… myself.' Abigail would use her skills and connections as Phantomflake to find the culprit. This was her way of compensating the real Abigail for borrowing her body.

"Nate… By the way, your father called me this afternoon. He is looking for you and Ethan. Did you and your father fight? Are you hiding from him? Is that the reason why you tagged along here?" Abigail eyed Nathan suspiciously.

Nathan couldn't look straight into Abigail's eyes. He was too embarrassed to admit it. But Abigail's suspicion was right. He was trying to avoid his father.

"My father and I argued because of Monica. We had an intense confrontation and a heated argument."

"Why? What happened?"

"My father believed that Monica cheated on me…"

Abigail: "..."

Abigail was rendered speechless. It was so unexpected that Nathan would open up to her like this.
