Day Twenty One…
~~*****~~
Abigail didn't know how she would react upon hearing those words from Nathan. 'You are my responsibility' this statent kept on repeating in her mind.
It was also another way of telling her that he was going to protect her. She felt touched, but then again, she was reminded of the fact he was doing this for Abigail… because she was in Abigail's body.
Nathan had no idea that the woman he was trying to protect right now was his enemy, Phantomflake, the main reason for his misery. The woman who took away the most precious person in his life… and in Ethan's life.
'While doing this mission… I should keep in mind that… Nathan and Ethan hated my real identity. I'm Phantomflake… I must know how to separate my personal feelings in this mission. After this… I should treat them as strangers.'
'How I wish I will forget everything so that my interactions and monts with them in one hundred days will not affect my decisions and feelings once I return as Phantomflake.'
But Abigail had to admit that she beca so fond of Ethan and was getting closer and closer to Nathan every passing day. Sotis, she was seeing the devil in a different light.
After a while, Nathan and Abigail arrived at the mall.
"Just stay here. You are not wearing any disguise. People might recognize you. I will buy your clothes." Nathan stepped out of the car without waiting for her response.
"Wait! Do you know my size?" Abigail asked him.
Nathan just halted on his steps but he didn't turn around. He already knew her size, especially her bra. She even left that thing in his chamber before.
Nathan just ignored her question as he was embarrassed to admit that he was already familiar with her body size.
When Nathan ca back, he was already holding two paper bags, containing different sets of clothes. He also bought shoes for her.
"You shopped fast!" Abigail said in amusent. "Are you sure you got the right size and right clothes for ?" she eyed him worriedly. What if the clothes he chose didn't fit her size and she didn't like the design?
"Just trust ." Nathan simply said, putting the two paper bags on her lap. Then he entered the car. They headed to EDSJ Five Star Hotel where the one hotel staff was already waiting for them. Madam Priya already arranged everything for the two.
At around 7:24 pm, Nathan and Abigail reached their destination. The EDSJ Five Star Hotel was surprisingly in tight security. n in black were scattered everywhere. Before getting out of the car, Nathan gave Abigail a face mask to hide her face from the public. They couldn't afford to let everyone recognize her.
One hotel staff approached Nathan right away as per instruction of Madam Priyanshi.
"Good evening sir. Please co with . I will guide you to your VIP suite." The man had to accompany them using the alternate route going to the 14th floor so that n in black would not stop them from entering that floor.
Sawada Clan occupied the 14th floor but with Madam Priya's help, Nathan was able to reserve a room on the said floor.
As they took the lift, Abigail started asking Nathan about his plan tonight. "What are we going to do?"
Nathan just wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to his body. He was pretending to be a sweet couple in front of the staff. Madam Priya also thought that Nathan wanted to surprise his girlfriend, that's why he booked a hotel room tonight.
The hotel staff tried ignoring the sweet gesture of Nathan towards Abigail. As much as possible, he wanted to pretend that he couldn't see them. He just avoided looking in their direction.
anwhile, Abigail's body stiffened when Nathan tightened his grip on her body. They were too close to each other and she felt like Nathan was hugging her from behind. Her back was now leaning on his sturdy chest while his arms were wrapped around her waist.
"We are a couple for tonight," Nathan murmured in her ears.
Hearing those words, Abigail finally figured out what Nathan was trying to do. He wanted them to pretend as a couple! Abigail could only nod her head as a response. Nathan smiled inwardly as Abigail was very obedient tonight.
Ding!
The elevator stopped on the 14th floor. Abigail and Nathan followed the hotel staff as he guided them to their VIP suite.
Abigail noticed sothing peculiar. The 14th floor was filled with strong looking guys.
'They look like a mob rather than professional bodyguards,' Abigail thought to herself.
"Don't look at them," Nathan whispered, putting his arm on her back as he shielded her from the n's line of view.
It did not take long when Abigail and Nathan arrived at their VIP suite. The hotel staff opened the door for them.
Abigail gasped when she saw sothing wonderful inside the room. The room was dim-lighted. And there was a table for two at the center of the living room which was decorated beautifully as if they were having a candlelit-dinner date.
While Abigail was preoccupied by the room set-up, another staff approached Nathan coming from the entrance door, handing over the bouquet of red roses. Abigail didn't notice it as her eyes were fixed on the table in front of them. Different delicious foods were served on the table, along with a bottle of champagne.
'Damn! What is the aning of this?' Abigail couldn't believe what she was seeing so she turned to the staff and asked him, "Are you sure this is our room? You might be mistaken." Nathan was not the romantic type who would prepare this candlelit dinner for them.
The staff just chuckled at her shocked reaction. "Ma'am, this is your room. It was reserved by Mr. Nathan Sparks. Enjoy your dinner." The staff didn't want to disturb them so he exited the room in an instant.
Abigail could only watch his back in disbelief. Then she shifted her gaze back to Nathan, giving him a questioning look.
Nathan finally handed her the bouquet of red roses, putting her in a daze!
"I'm giving you a proper dinner date now… to make it up to you. I heard that you complained a lot after you ca here with as my partner during the Masquerade Party."
Abigail: "..."
'Damn! Is this really the devil, the Supre Leader of the Syphiruz Mafia? Why do I feel like… he is the one seducing , not the other way around?'
Abigail had never imagined that Nathan would prepare sothing like this. This ti he even gave her a bouquet of roses.
"Nate… what had gotten into you? You are scaring like this…"
Badum! Badum!
Abigail's heart began to run wild again.
Nathan tried his best to hold his laughter. He could see how shocked and flustered she was at this mont.
"Aside from making it up to you… I'm doing this… because I need you to cooperate with ," Nathan said truthfully, extending his right hand to her as he invited her to join him at the table.
Abigail: "..."
'What does he think of ? Is he thinking that he can easily bribe with this?' But Abigail already accepted Nathan's hand, allowing him to guide her to her chair. She fell for it!
