100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Eight…

~~*****~~

As much as they didn't want to attract attention, Nathan and Abigail couldn't avoid the spotlight. They became the center of attention the moment the two of them proceeded to the dance floor.

Despite the masks covering half of their faces, other guests presumed that they were a lovely couple– a gorgeous man and a pretty lady. They looked good together on the dance floor.

If this was just a JS Prom, the host would announce them as the Prom King and Queen. For some unknown reason, they could see the chemistry and spark between the lovely couple standing in the middle of the dance floor.

"Are you happy now?" Nathan whispered in her ear. He could tell that Abigail got bored a while ago. He was concentrating on the meeting between Syphiruz and Red Dragon, that's why he pretended to ignore her.

But when he finally figured out what Red Dragon was trying to do, Abigail approached him, inviting him to a dance. She was like a puppy asking for her master to fulfill her wishes so Nathan just found himself accepting her invitation.

Since his comrade was almost done with their negotiation, Nathan just allowed himself to be a gentleman toward Abigail… just for tonight. Only tonight.

Abigail just answered him with a simple "Hmm" before nodding her head.

Her mind was preoccupied with something. She despised this man but she didn't feel disgusted being so close to him like this. Her mind hated him… but her body loved to feel his warmth.

'Damn. I think I was bewitched by this gorgeous devil…' Abigail shut her eyes while biting her lower lip. She likes to smell his masculine scent. His fragrance was so pleasant in her nose.

The two of them stayed like that for several minutes, not bothered by the numerous pair of eyes looking at them with amusement, intrigue, and envy.

After a while, Nathan spoke again, catching Abigail's attention.

"Don't tell me you are planning to sleep here…" Though Nathan's tone was neutral, there was a twinkling of humor in his eyes when he said those words to her.

Abigail was so silent and she was comfortably leaning on his body as if she was trying to hide herself from others.

"It's your fault. You smell so good and your body feels so warm…" Abigail murmured, tightening her grip on his body as she pressed her body closer to his while burying her face into his chest.

Nathan was at a loss for words when he heard that. This woman was truly taking advantage of him.

'I should stop now.' Nathan thought to himself.

He was becoming more comfortable in her presence. For him, this was a red sign. Getting closer with another woman seemed like betraying Monica. He shouldn't let this happen.

"I'm tired. We should go back to our table now." Nathan mumbled, gently pushing her away from his body.

Abigail pouted her lips. Nathan had become cold again as he tried to put up a big wall between them. Left with no choice, Abigail had to follow him back to their table.

The two were silent after they settled down. The awkwardness could be felt around them. Nathan's comrades were puzzled as to why the two suddenly looked very distant from each other. contemporary romance

"Hey Twinnie, can't you hear anything? Should we join them at that table?" Chantha nudged Violet's shoulder.

"Our Supreme Leader switched off his microphone, so we could no longer hear their conversation," Violet replied. "And no! We are not allowed to join them."

Chantha crumpled her face. She was dying to know who the woman was. So she turned to Axel, her mortal enemy.

"Hey, Lexa! Tell me what you know about that woman. Who is she?" Chantha asked him coldly, folding her arms over her chest.

Axel frowned when Chantha called him Lexa again. She had this habit of calling him by reading his name backward! This was one of her ways to tease and provoke him. In their organization, Chantha and Axel were like Tom and Jerry. (the cat and the mouse who always fight)

"Beg me and I will tell you," Axel said with a sinister smirk on his face.

"Hmmph! Forget it! I will just ask her myself!" Chantha spat back at him while stomping her feet.

Meanwhile, Abigail just excused herself from Nathan. "I'm just going to the comfort room…"

Nathan just nodded his head. He had to clear his mind while Abigail was not around. He felt like he was acting strangely tonight. This was so unlikely of him.

When Abigail entered the comfort room, she saw two women retouching their lipsticks. The two didn't mind her presence so she just proceeded to the cubicle.

She had just sat down when she heard one woman mentioning her name. It seemed like the two women were also actresses who knew Abigail Scarlett. She wondered if they were acquaintances of the real Abigail. She decided to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"Do you have any news about Abigail? Is she dead? I think her manager is hiding Abigail's real condition."

"I have no idea. I think it's best if she died. She is my greatest contender for the Best Newcomer Award. It's her Karma for seducing our CEO. Our CEO's girlfriend found out that Abigail was trying to seduce her man." The woman was referring to the CEO of Star Corp Entertainment.

"Yeah, she was so arrogant as if she was so pure and clean after revealing to the world what Mr. Shen of the Shen Tian Company did to her. But who would have thought she would try to climb our CEO's bed?"

"This serves her right! Haha!"

"Our CEO might have rejected her or Lady Nadia threatened her so Abigail just decided to commit suicide to gain public sympathy. I knew it. She is a white lotus! Who knows this suicide attempt is just part of her evil scheme?"

"Yeah, that's true. As you can see…

Her assistant and manager went into a lie low. No one even knows where to find them, including Abigail. So suspicious right?"

Abigail, who was listening to them, could no longer control her rage. They were cursing her as if they were glad that something bad happened to her or rather to the real Abigail Scarlet. And they were accusing her of something!

Bam!
