Luna’s eyes were cold, her red lips pressed. There was a sense of superiority on her face. When she glanced at Abby’s face, her expression became more disdained.
Abby also perceived this.
‘However, both her identity in the company and whose sister she is are not her business.’
Abby didn’t speak, but her smile deepened. She nodded at Luna, turned around, straightened her and walked out of the bathroom with her chin slightly raised.
Luna didn’t feel surprised by her behavior. Lily, however, was somewhat aggrieved.
“She was so arrogant. Does she consider herself a great one? She just seduced Mr. Davies with despicable means!”
Lily was so angry that her face changed!
Luna was more sophisticated than her. She didn’t care Abby’s provocative attitude at all.
“Lily, why are you so angry? The angrier you are, the happier the enemy will be. Because that’s what they want to see.”
Lily had always been in a high position in Davies Group and never been despised by anyone. The newcomer Abby, just relying on Mr. Davies’ preference, dared to look down upon her.
Luna said faintly, turning to the crystal mirror embedded in the wall, started fixing her make-up slowly.
“Her arrival won’t cause big problems. Men always can be attracted by freshness. This woman owned outstanding appearance. And it was common to draw others’ attention for some time. Since our family is the biggest tycoon in G city, will the elders of our family allow such a degrading woman to enter in?”
Lily was always sensitive. Hearing Luna’s words, her mood suddenly plummeted.
Luna twitched her lips and said, “You are certainly different from her. You have been gracious to me. We feel grateful to you instead of despise you.”
Lily’s face turned better slightly.
“But you also didn’t do well. I have already reminded you to pay attention to Abby. See, you’ve leave her a chance.”
Lily nodded, “I have paid enough attention to her, but no one knows she took actions so rapidly. I followed them to the president’s office, but he asked me out.” There was a bit of helpless sense in her speech.
Resentment revealed in Luna’s eyes. In fact, even she was shocked for the morning.
‘In such a short time the woman appeared, my brother had begun to notice her. If he won’t be stopped, the consequences would be… The woman disappeared for such a long time, and reappeared suddenly. She must have a hidden purpose.’ Luna had a sense of crisis that she had never felt before.
“I think we should take offense after defense.”
After Luna said this from her ruddy lips, she and Lily looked at each other and nodded.
Abby, who came off work early, wanted to bring Ethan to hang out originally, but Ethan suddenly changed his mind.
Elaine knew the reason after she asked Ethan. It was because he found the injury on Abby’s leg, so he decided not to go.
She didn’t expect that such a little child should be so sensible and clever. Elaine thought of her relatives’ children. When they heard that they could hang out, they were all excited and elated. They wouldn’t care whether their parents were tired.
On the big balcony, Ethan carefully applied the ointment for Abby.
The child’s fleshy little hand was holding a cotton swab, gently wiping her injured part. At the same time, the little adult asked, “Mommy, does it hurt? You can cry out if you feel pain, then the pain will fly away.”
Abby smiled gently, shaking her head. She was naturally moved.
After applying, Ethan said, “Abby, are you thirsty? I can get you a glass of water
Abby bent down to pick up her little son and gave him a kiss on his pink cheek.
“My dear, I’m not thirsty at all.”
“Mommy, I love you.” Ethan tightly embraced Abby’s neck with his small hands, and his small head was rubbing against the warm arm of Abby.
“Ethan, mommy also loves you.”
The mother and son were playing happily, and Elaine admired them very much.
Abby noticed that her mood hadn’t recovered, so she asked Ethan to go to his own room to play with toys.
“Elaine, when will Nelson come back?”
Abby reckoned that they had lived in Elaine’s house for nearly a week. She wants to move out before Nelson Thomas comes back, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble to others. After all, she had a child.
She knew that Elaine liked Ethan, but she didn’t know Nelson… Indeed, many successful men didn’t like children.
Elaine pulled the hair hanging down from her forehead, and said spitefully, “Who knows.”
‘This tone of voice probably means that their relationship had not improved.’
Abby thought for a moment and said, “Elaine, I want to move out next weekend.”
Although she had said very carefully, Elaine became unhappy.
Raising her eyebrows, she said dissatisfiedly, “How can you do that? You can live here at your liberty, and you will never be driven out. Besides, I like Ethan very much. I even want to be his godmother.”
“I know.” Of course, Abby knew that Elaine liked Ethan.
“You know and you’re going to take him away from me?”
“But Nelson doesn’t like us.”
Hearing her words, Elaine was silent. Nelson didn’t like children, exactly. For this matter, Elaine had quarreled with him a few times, but her persuasion hadn’t worked.
Seeing that she was silent, Abby knew that she had guessed right.
Elaine’s eyes suddenly turned red and said angrily, “The damned man is perfect, except this point. Abby, I’m a few years older than you, almost 30 years old. I haven’t got a child yet. He always said he was not ready… I know that he has no plans to get married for the time being, and I also think marriage would bind us, but children won’t. It shouldn’t be so difficult for him.”
Elaine began to choke. Abby quickly took out the tissue from one side and handed it to her. In fact, she could infer that Elaine wanted a child very much the relationship between her and Ethan. And she also realized what caused their conflict.
But it was a private matter of them after all, so it was improper for her to make some remarks.
