Abigail Bernstein was a quiet and obedient girl who seldom say NO to her father’s decisions. Even when it’s about her marriage.
To save their family’s company out of bankruptcy, her father arranged her to marry Diarmuid Althoff, the grandson of a billionaire. But on their wedding day, the groom did not appear. Abigail was disappointed but could do nothing about it.
Alone and boring on wedding night, Abigail accepted to replace her colleague’s shift. At her workplace, the hospital, she saved a wounded man being hunted down by gangsters, and made out with this stranger to blow off steam.
The stranger, however, turned out to be her husband that did not show up at the altar.
Zachary said, ‘That’s right. You’d envy me for having a daughter while you don’t.” Diarmuid chuckled. ‘For now. Who knows what happens when she gets older? On the other hand, my sons would still be mine.” Zachary was speechless. What was that supposed to mean? That his daughter would not be his once she became…
“That’s fine,” Diarmuid replied. “I’ll make the arrangements. Abigail said nothing else since Diarmuid had put it that way. “If that’s what you think.” With that, Diarmuid makes arrangements for attending James’s wedding. Zachary asked, “Has he fully recovered? Is it really the time to get married now?” “He’s more or less recovered,” Abigail replied.…
Barzel laughed. “Two lives just for your protection?” Diarmuid raised a brow, unhappy about his tone and suddenly wanted him out of his hair permanently. “What do you want?” “Money,” Barzel replied. “I know you’re very rich.” Diarmuid stared at Barzel in turn, unsure if he was threatened or just greedy. However, Diarmuid did not…
Erin walked over to pat his little head. “No, I’m not.” “Well, where are you staying?” Tommy asked, rearing his head. “With my daddy, just like you’re staying with your parents, Tommy,” Erin replied. Tommy blinked but said, “Okay.” “I have all the time to play with you later,” Erin said, tousling his hair. “Okay?”…
Zachary did not bring his daughter since she was too young and there were too many strangers outside, so he was worried that his daughter could get sick. Mrs. Watson was staying at their lodging to help him take care of Jean. Since the dinner was booked ahead of them, it was served in under…
Erin pinched his cheek. “You won’t say that if it were your girlfriend.” Tommy blinked. “What’s a girlfriend?” Erin rubbed her chin. How would she explain that? Abigail interrupted just then. “We’re here.” They alighted after their chauffeur parked their car, and the manager was already waiting, receiving them as soon as they entered. They…
James shoved him off. “Don’t ruin my clothes.” Zachary was speechless. “Come on, it’s just a suit,” Zachary said, putting his elbow on James’s shoulder. ’ And what’s more important, me or the suit?” James replied, “The suit, of course.” Speechless, Zachary started to turn and leave. James promptly caught him. “I’m just kidding. Why…
“You’ll know when you get there/ Abigail replied. Tommy tugged on the hem of her shirt, curious as well.” Mommy, what is it?” Abigail tapped his little nose and said, “You’re just a kid. You don’t need to know-come on, let’s eat something tasty.” The wedding reception must have started, and she turned toward Erin…
They could return to Franconia soon. Erin soon heard splashing from the bathroom-James was taking a shower. Erin then spotted a box on a desk, and she walked over, picking up the card attached to it which read: [ Congratulations on your wedding!] She pursed her lips ever so slightly, put down the card, and…
While adults might still be fine with traveling in quick succession, it might not be the same with kids. “Okay.” Erin nodded, agreeing with James too. They decided to go out tomorrow-just the two of them, since they were just married. Neither Tommy nor Baby were willing to stay still in the house, so Diarmuid…
