Semua Bab Abigail's Absent Husband Is A CEO: Bab 731 - Bab 740

A few gossiping women, envious of others' successes, started to chit-chat."That man obviously looks wealthy and handsome. When people choose partners, they usually go for someone in their league. How could he possibly be with a girl from out of town?""Maybe he already has a fiancée or wife, and he's just after her beauty, just to have a bit of fun. Whoever falls for it loses.""What kind of car was that again? The logo had a horse on it; it looked pretty pricey.""That's a Porsche. My daughter and son-in-law drive one too. To get the full package, it costs over 1 million dollars, so expensive. I cringe at the idea of spending so much on a car, but my son-in-law didn't even blink when he swiped his card. That's how rich people are; a couple of million is nothing to them.""This one has a bigger horse. It's not a Porsche; it's a Ferrari.""What's a Ferrari? It can't be better than my daughter and son-in-law's Porsche."A young man passing by interjected, "Even the cheapest Ferra

As a clean freak, Xander could not stand having dirty clothes on. Abigail, seeing him put up with it, felt a pang in her heart."We're almost home. When we get there, you can change, and I'll wash it for you."Xander would not wear a stained shirt twice. So, he usually carried two or three extra outfits, just in case. Abigail was the one who usually prepared these for him. During their private outing today, she had not thought about it, and ironically, his shirt got soiled.Before Xander could say anything, Felix interjected with a hint of mockery, "Xander is a grown man, not a delicate little girl, Caterpie. What's the big deal if his clothes get a bit dirty?"Abigail gave Felix a warning look, and, reluctantly, he shut his mouth.Soon, they reached the 15th floor.Felix, picking up the lightest bag, stepped ahead. "Caterpie, I'll open the door first. You carry the rest."Abigail knew Felix was testing Xander, but it was unnecessary. She had spent more time with Xander than Fel

Just as the word "divorce" was about to escape her lips, Xander swiftly silenced her with a kiss, blocking the word he disliked."I don't mistrust you. It's just that intense jealousy clouded my mind."Worried he might say something wrong, Xander said no more. He took the shirt from Abigail's hands and quickly put it on. It was also a white shirt, baggy and long when worn by her. But it fit him just right, as if it were made for him. Abigail ignored him, taking his dirty white shirt to clean it, leaving him alone in her room.This was Xander's first time in Abigail's room, which was much smaller than he had imagined. The room had a single bed that was five feet long, a row of wardrobes, and a desk. With these furnishings, the room hardly had any extra space. But it was tidy, warm, and cozy. A sachet hung by the window, filled with what must be herbs and spices, giving off a soothing and calming scent. On the window ledge was a cushion, a small table, and on it, a tablet and a notebo

Abigail, blushing, shot Xander a quick glance before leaving the room.Melody, always watchful of the couple, certainly did not miss that brief exchange. As soon as Abigail left the kitchen, Melody dragged her into her room. "Stinky Caterpie, we weren't done chatting on WhatsApp. Let's continue now."Abigail's face was still flushed, which was even more intense due to the hot weather. She feared that continuing the chat would overheat her. "Could you turn down the AC a bit?"Melody adjusted the temperature while speaking. "You should have seen the way your man was looking at you. So sweet, so smitten."Hearing Melody's words, Abigail felt a small thrill of joy, although she feigned modesty. "He's not the type to wear his heart on his sleeve. How did you know he was smitten with me?"Melody said, "I can see. It's pretty clear. Don't tell me you didn't feel it at all."Abigail confessed, "I did feel it, and that's why I'm nervous."Melody asked, "Why are you nervous?"Abigail exp

Abigail chuckled. "Maybe this is all just a big dream I've made. When I wake up, Xander will still be the powerful CEO of Zane Corporation, and I'll just be his assistant. We'll be boss and assistant again. I could never actually be Mrs. Zane."Melody said, "You silly girl, everyone wants to be Mrs. Zane, and you're hoping this is a dream. This is a sure thing; you are Mrs. Zane. From now on, live well and make everyone wish they were you. Then, have a few kids for me to spoil. You two are too perfect not to have kids. Oh wait, I forgot; your man can't. Looks like I might not get to spoil any kids."Abigail asked, "Do you think he and I can keep going?"Melody answered, "If you want to, you definitely can. I've read a lot of stories, and I can tell he really likes you."Abigail glared at her. "I'm trying to talk seriously with you, stop talking about stories."Melody replied, "Well, let's go with my girl sense then. I just feel he likes you. When we're all together, he's always lo
