“Oh, that would be great, finally I can tell the good news to my friends,” The owner made an appointment with her friends hurriedly. She even gave Abigail few lobsters as a gift to thank her.
Even Abigail tried to ask the owner to retreat her gift, but she insisted. Abigail felt some kind of guilt when seeing the owner’s departure.
“Look at you, you didn’t have to do that. You are busy enough already, and now here you are adding extra work for yourself!” grumped Will, feeling worried about Abigail. If Abigail doesn’t truly enjoy designing jewelries, he would have refused Irene for her.
Abigail Hanson shook her head and smiled, closed her vivid eyes unintentionally with her lips pursed up, looking literally like a fairy in the human world.
“It’s fine,” she said softly as always, “If they didn’t take care of me, me and my sister won’t own what we have today. I’m glad in being able to offer something like this to them.”
Although designing these jewelries would take up her breaktimes, she is still willing to do it.
“You always have your way.” Will wanted to give her a big hug, but having Abigail Hanson’s purity in mind, he didn’t want to scare her. So, instead of putting his hands around her, he put them on his chest and said moodily, “If you ever needed anything, just give me a word.”
“Thanks,” Abigail Hanson got touched and nodded. Will really treated her with the very best, as well as all the people in the market. They were the ones who truly cared about her and her sister during the day after her mother’s decease, which was why she could take over her mother’s stall and being able to support her sister’s living and school fees.
She always thinks that she and her sister is really blissed, having all these help from others.
“What’s the matter, Abigail?” Will tried to have her attention by waving in front of her. Having seen the tears in Abigail’s eyes, he knew she got touched by something again.
“Nothing is wrong,” Abigail smiled, turn her head away and wiped off her tears.
“You always get touched so easily.” Will knew her very well for a long time already, he knew Abigail Hanson is someone as smooth and soft like water, while being unable to accept impurities as well.
A few years ago, Will acted rashly against his father, requested protection rackets from the stalkers in the market. Everyone chose to comply and hand in the money, with only one exception…
That day, he got told by his subordinate that there was one stubborn stalker who refused to comply. He brought a whole lot of his man, planning to warn her and giving her a view of his authority within this market. When he walked towards her formidably, not a touch of fear can be seen in her eyes. Instead, she looked exceptionally calm.
“I cannot see any difference from what you are doing now from robbery. Can’t you just gain it via working?” She questioned him.
“Who do you think you are, how dare you going against me, do you not know who I am?” He said, totally not worrying about this weak girl in front of him. He had been forcing stalkers to hand in protection rackets for a long time and he never saw this girl before. So, he reckoned that this girl has not a single clue about his identity which gave her the balls to speak to him like this.
“Of course, I know who you are. Your father owns this market,” Her reply was quite a shock to him.
“Then what are you waiting for? Where is the money?” he shouted arrogantly and flipped a tray of fish in front of her, the water splashed onto her clothes and hair, but still showing no fear.
