Chapter 489
After hearing Abigail's words, Jacob's eyes got gentler, and then he smiled.
"It's nice to know that you're not angry with me!"
"Of course not. I've never been angry with you!" Abigail said with a smile.
Jacob's lips also curled into a smile. "Good to hear that!"
At that moment, looking at Abigail's smile, he seemed to understand something.
Nothing was more important than her smile.
He felt fulfilled as long as she was happy.
They smiled together and Jacob continued, "If you choose Liam, I... wish you happy!"
Hearing this, Abigail was in a daze. "Jacob..."
She couldn't describe how touched she was.
They were not biological siblings which they both knew.
Although Jacob did not realize that she already had known it, he had always given Abigail enough love just as he would do to his biological sister. Abigail was really moved about that.
"As long as you're happy, that's all that matters!" Jacob said.
At this moment, Abigail walked up and reached out to hug Jacob.
"In this life, I am very moved, satisfied, and happy to have a brother like you!"
Jacob paused for a while, then smiled and patted on her head.
"But if Liam dares to bully you, I will let him suffer!"
Abigail smiled and let go of him.
"Jacob, do you want to go upstairs and have some tea?"
At this moment, Jacob glanced upstairs. "No, it's late. You should rest early. I need to go back!" "Well, be careful on your way!" Abigail said with a smile.
Jacob nodded. "Okay, then I'm leaving now!"
"Okay!"
Jacob waved to Abigail and walked straight to the car.
"You don't have to come out!" Jacob said.
"Never mind!" Abigail nodded and watched him get into the car. Then she went upstairs with ease. But Jacob was not in a hurry to drive away. Instead, he sat in the car and watched Abigail walk in. He waited until the light upstairs turned on, then withdrew his eyes and slowly drove away... Sometimes, the one who surrendered first was the one who was more affectionate...
[The next day.]
Abigail was working. Just as she was about to get off work, her phone rang.
When she saw the number, she was bemused for a moment but finally answered it.
"Hey!"
"Abigail, it's me!" It was Leo.
Hearing his voice, Abigail softened her voice, "I thought you'd forgotten me since you haven't called me for a century!”
Hearing Abigail's voice, Leo smiled bitterly on the other end. In this world, she was the last one he wanted to remember and the one he couldn't forget at the same time.
"I will forget everyone except you! How about coming out for a drink?" Leo said.
"Sounds great! Where are we going? I'll be there soon!"
"It's up to you!"
"Then see you at Lancer Coffee!"
"Okay, do you want me to pick you up?" Leo asked.
"You don't have to. I'll take a taxi myself!" Abigail said.
Leo did not insist and nodded. "Okay, see you later!"
"Okay, see you soon!"
After hanging up the phone, Abigail was simply dressed and went out.
