Smile A Little

Abigail was stunned hearing those words.

Yes, why was she getting excited and embarrassed all of a sudden? Wasn't she supposed to pretend to be aloof and indifferent to these two people at all times? Wasn't she supposed to guard her heart thoroughly in her chest until she could come up with a proper solution about whom she should be with in the end?

Then… Why did she even ask anything to Asher? If a girl didn't feel the slightest bit of a thing for a man standing close, she wouldn't blush and scold the man for touching her. She would just slap the man and even accuse him angrily.

But was Abigail really angry?

She wasn't, not at least about him touching her. She was instead angry about the fact that he broke the code drafted by Nicholas.

Damn, did she already fall in love with him or something?! So soon?!

No! She should continue to make herself aloof. She can't throw herself into the pool of abyss like this!
