Third POV* * *Ethan was leaning back in his car, lazily holding a cigarette in one hand while the other rested on the wheel. The glow from the cigarette was the only thing illuminating the car's dark interior.A wide smile spread across his lips as he gazed intently at the scene unfolding before him. "Time to be the hero" He let out a loud laugh, his car was soundproofed and so he didn't have to worry about anyone hearing him.Straight ahead of Ethan's car, a vibrant red Audi R8 stood out like a gleaming trophy, its sleek and agile frame accentuated by the eye-catching taxi billboard adorning its roof. Luckily, Ethan's windows were tinted black and so they couldn't see him. However, he could see everything that was going on outside, including the way Asher took a dramatic step out of his car and then turned around the car to open the door for Abigail.He saw her shake her head reluctantly, as if scared of stepping outside of the car.Ethan's lips curled into a mischievous grin, an
Third POV***Her hand flew to her cheeks and she gulped in fear. Did he just slap her?Abigail's eyes blazed in anger, her body suddenly feeling energized than they were before.He was about to raise his hand on her again when she held his hand angrily, stopping his dirty hand from getting to her face.A blistering pain ripped through her face, leaving a red, burning mark on her skin. She winced, tears welling up in her eyes, but she clenched her teeth and held back the impulse to soothe the wounded flesh. Instead, she glared at the man, her gaze filled with a mixture of fear and fury, the resilience within her refusing to give in."You have gotten brave, I see." The driver said, clearly surprised with Abigail's change of attitude.Never would he have thought that Abigail could have the guts to block his attempt."Touch me one more time and you I'll regret ever laying your filthy hands on me." Abigail threatened with gritted teeth, even if no one was here to save her, she could still
Third POV* * *"Hey, you into sweets?" Ethan inquired, his tone smooth as he reached into the backseat of his car, fingers sliding across several boxes of assorted candies and chocolates. Abigail declined his offering with a gentle shake of her head, her lips pressed into a thin line. Ethan felt a bit hurt, his face shifting into a scowl, only to be replaced by a quick smile, an attempt to hide his disappointment."I was kinda hoping you'd try some. You look like you could use a sugar rush." Ethan said before bringing the car back to life, the engine purred and the car moved slowly on the streets.Abigail sighed heavily and then looked away from Ethan, focusing her gaze on the city outside the car window and watching the blurry buildings as they drove past."Here take my jacket, it will keep you warm." Ethan's gaze was fixed on the road while he slowly undressed himself, a risky decision, but it was worth it in the end when he saw her accept the jacket.She was slowly starting to
Third POV* * *As Abigail entered the bar, the wild atmosphere was immediately the first thing she noticed. The vibrant lights were bright and flashing so quickly that they nearly blinded her, with a mix of bright blues, reds, and yellows dancing around the room.Her eyes squinted instinctively at the intense lights, trying to protect themselves from the sudden brightness. A slight burning sensation stung her retinas, prompting her to blink several times as she gradually adjusted to the brightly lit surroundings. Slowly, her eyes began to make out the details of the busy bar: the colorful lights, the loads of people. As Abigail looked around the bar, she saw many women wearing very little clothing, mostly bikinis and underwear. These women were dancing in the crowded room, and there were a lot of them. Some danced on the laps of men, screaming in joy as the men sprayed them with money.Abigail looked away and turned to face her right, it looked a lot more quieter and she guessed
Third POV* * *Draco didn't listen, he let out a loud hiss and believed that the intruder would leave after getting the silent treatment from him."I said stay away!"Draco felt a strong hand on his shoulder, making me wonder who would dare to commit such an act.He turned back to look at the man angrily, his chest heaving in anger."Get your stinky ass out of my sight!" Draco said with gritted teeth, noticing the young blonde that stood with his sleeves rolled up.He wasn't surprised to know that the young man knew his name, after all, ninety percent of the people in Samoa knew he was not a person to be messed with.And yet, this young daring man decided to press his buttons. If he wasn't in a good mood today, then he would have shown the man what he was capable of.Abigail on the other hand took the opportunity and ran to his sides, her pupils dilated upon recognizing that the man was no other than John, her ex-worker.She felt a sense of relief, knowing that she wasn't alone and t
Third POV* * *"Does it hurt?" Abigail’s eyes searched his face, her brows drawn together in worry. She saw him shake his head, but his lips were pressed together and his shoulders were hunched, it was obvious that he was in pain.The cotton wool was filled with blood, even after applying several ointments to help stop the blood flow.John slouched in his seat and mouth pressed into a thin line. Abigail watched as tears welled in his eyes and his hands shook. His condition was clearly poor, making it obvious that he was in no state to drive. She was concerned for him, and her heart broke to see him in such pain." I'm sorry that you had to go through this, it's all my fault." Abigail's tears dropped on his hand and she immediately wiped it away with the cotton wool and then threw it away in the empty nylon that was inside the box."Don't blame yourself Abigail. You have no idea how happy I'm to see you again, we miss you in the company." John chuckled and she did the same also.He s
Third POV***The middle aged man’s attire gave him a ruggedly handsome appearance. His brown t-shirt hugged his torso, highlighting the definition of his muscles, and his black pants were crease-free and neatly pressed. But it was his cowboy hat that truly completed the attire, adding a touch of old-fashioned charm to his already striking features. Abigail could see the little resemblance between the two men. Though, John looked way younger."Hello" Abigail said in a soft and alluring voice, she got up from her seat and walked towards the two men.They were both chatting and laughing happily when they set their eyes on Abigail.John, understanding what was going on, decided to introduce Abigail to his uncle."Uncle C, it's great to see you. This is Abigail, my lovely_"“Your girlfriend? Wow!” Uncle C interrupted John with a playful grin, his eyes dancing with amusement. “You didn’t tell me you had a hot girlfriend.” He didn’t wait for an answer, his next words coming out in a rush o
Third POV***Abigail slept deeply, time seeming to vanish in a blur. When she woke up, the morning light was just beginning to filter in through the room curtains. Her mind was foggy, struggling to adjust to the day. She blinked a few times and tried to make sense of the previous night.Last night, John had given up his room for her and he slept on the couch instead.Slowly, she brought herself to sit up, even though she was feeling extra tired.Her mind slowly drifted away and she thought about Henry. He must have been worried about her and she felt sad, especially because she lied to him.She made up her mind to tell him about everything when she gets back to his mansion.Hopefully, Today will be her last day in Samao.Abigail rose from the bed, her bare feet touching the coolness of the marble floor. She stood for a moment, allowing her body to adjust to the early morning chill before taking a step forward and making her way toward the bathroom. Turning on the tap, the water came
