Chapter 259 "If I Die, You Won’t Even Cry..."



[ At Towerville City Hospital... ]

Abigail had been ignoring Nathan. She received his message yesterday but she didn\'t reply. She was upset with him because Nathan couldn\'t even distinguish the real Shining Star from the impostor.

Abigail also returned Ethan\'s laptop so that she would no longer be tempted to chat with Nathan.

"Little Ethan... don\'t tell anyone that I am Cliste, okay?" Abigail requested Ethan. The two had been sharing secrets. The young boy couldn\'t refuse Abigail\'s request.

"Yes, Miss Abi. I promise." Ethan smiled at her. He was supposed to be Nathan\'s spy. But Ethan had been keeping things from his father, regarding Abigail. He also didn\'t mention Black Rose to his father as per request by Abigail.

\'Hmm. I\'m not betraying, Dad. I just don\'t want Miss Abi to get in trouble.\' Ethan thought to himself, justifying his action.

Abigail ruffled his hair and tapped his cute nose. "Thank you Little One."

Ethan giggled and nodded his head. "Are you feeling better now, Miss Abi?"

"Yes. I am. I hope the doctor will allow me to leave the hospital today. Sigh. I\'m bored doing nothing here." Abigail complained to Ethan.

"Don\'t worry, Miss Abi. I will ask Dad to bring you home. You can recuperate at the mansion." Ethan raised his hand to tap Abigail\'s shoulder, reassuring her.

"You are my angel, Ethan. I will always feel grateful to you."

"As long as it\'s for you, Miss Abi. I want to make you happy and comfortable..."

Abigail didn\'t know how she would thank Ethan for his generosity toward her. However, as she looked at him, Abigail couldn\'t help but think about his mother, Monica.

"Ethan, can I ask you something about your mother?" Abigail was not able to hold her curiosity.

Ethan glanced at Abigail\'s face, blinking his eyes in puzzlement. Why did Abigail mention his mother? It was a sensitive topic for Ethan. He yearned for a mother\'s love. But since his mother died when he was only three years old, he couldn\'t remember her and he didn\'t know much about her.

"Miss Abi... I-I," Ethan didn\'t know what to say. As much as he wanted to accommodate Abigail\'s question, he couldn\'t give her more information about his mother.

Nathan also hid the real cause of his mother\'s death. He believed that Ethan was too young to understand what happened. And he thought Ethan wouldn\'t be able to handle the truth that his mother was assassinated.

"If you want to know about Monica, just ask me, not my son," Nathan\'s voice was heard from the entrance door.

\'Damn! Nathan heard us! What the hell is he doing here?\' Abigail cursed inwardly. She didn\'t look at him as she was caught in the act. What if Nathan would misunderstand her motive once again?

Meanwhile, Ethan faced his father and waved at him. He was glad to see him dropping by to visit Abigail.

"Dad, don\'t you know how to knock?" Ethan scolded his father after noticing that Abigail looked guilty and embarrassed. She was avoiding Nathan\'s gaze.

"I am the one paying this VIP ward. I don\'t need to knock," Nathan nonchalantly replied, making Ethan rolled his eyes skyward.

"What a shameless guy!" Abigail murmured, pursing her lips.

Nathan traced his steps toward them. Abigail could hear his footsteps inching closer and closer to them. She slammed her eyes and bit her lower lip. She wasn\'t prepared to see Nathan today.

Not looking into his eyes, she sensed Nathan stop on the other side of her bed. Nathan stood there, watching her intently.

Yesterday afternoon, Nathan fell asleep in his chambers in the Syphiruz Mafia Headquarters. He got tired of thinking about so many things. And surprisingly, he dreamed of Abigail. He was confused as to why he dreamed of her. Stephen often told him that what he was thinking in his subconscious often showed up in his dream.

\'Am I thinking about her? Am I curious about her?\' Nathan asked himself.

His eyes scanned Abigail. He just discovered something interesting about her. This woman before his eyes was the missing heiress of the Yan Family. But she was also a possibility that she was connected to Black Rose.

Nathan couldn\'t decide what he would do to her. Abigail\'s identity was not yet confirmed. Was she a friend or a foe? But one thing was for sure, someone was after Abigail\'s life. And he believed that it was related to the Yan Family and inheritance.

"Dad, what are you thinking?" Little Ethan broke the awkward silence in the room. He noticed that his father was looking at Abigail as he thought about something.

Ethan\'s voice snapped Nathan out of his deep thought. Instead of answering Ethan, he focused his attention on Abigail and asked her a question.

"Why are you interested in Monica?"

Both Ethan and Abigail gazed up to look at him. Nathan had a blank look on his face. They couldn\'t tell what he was thinking. Was he mad?

Abigail tried her best to force a fake smile. Though she was upset with him, Abigail had to interact with Nathan and answer his question properly. She couldn\'t afford to have another conflict with him just because of Monica.

\'Monica will always be a barrier that I have to break in order to get closer to Nathan.\' Abigail secretly clenched her fist. She got annoyed just thinking about Monica.

"I want to know what kind of woman she was for you to fall in love with. I bet there are lots of beautiful women trying to catch your attention... Why did you choose her?" Abigail directly asked him. She was dying to ask that question to Nathan. What was so great to Monica that Nathan fell head over heels for her?

Nathan was not able to respond right away. Abigail and Ethan were anticipating his words, just looking at him. After a while, Nathan raised his eyebrow and said, "I don\'t have to answer that. Why do you want to know?"

Ethan shifted his gaze from his father to Abigail. He bobbed his head since he was also curious as to why Abigail was asking his father about her mother.

Abigail pursed her lips and took a deep breath. She made sure to meet Nathan\'s blue eyes before responding to him. "Because I want to compete with her. I would like to know what kind of woman you like... so that I can have your affection!"

Nathan: "..."

Abigail said those words boldly, making Nathan speechless. She had another motivation to accomplish her 100 Days mission. She had to survive and clear more things with Nathan. She wanted to face him and revealed her identity as Shining Star using her original body... Phantomflake. She would like to confront him about Monica. She wanted answers and explanations from Nathan about his sudden disappearance.

Nathan was still in a deep stupor when Little Ethan decided to leave the two. He went to the mini-kitchen to get some snacks, giving Nathan and Abigail some privacy. He didn\'t want to spoil and ruin the moment between the two adults. They had to talk without his presence. Little Ethan was mature enough to know that basic.

"No one can ever replace her," Nathan mumbled after he recovered from his stupor.

But Abigail\'s lips curled up into a meaningful smile. "Are you sure? What will you do if you learn that you fell for the wrong woman?" Abigail sneered at him, her sharp eyes mocking him. Her instinct was telling her that Monica was not a perfect woman. That woman might be hiding something from Nathan. And Abigail was determined to find out and unfold the truth.

"What do you mean? You don\'t know her at all so don\'t say bad things about her. She was the person who gave color to my boring life..." Nathan defended Monica.

"I already told you before. I will make you fall for me. Mark my words!" Abigail would never back down on this challenge.

"Then we will see... Don\'t blame me if you cry in the end," Nathan warned her.

Abigail just laughed at his warning. "Even if I cry or not, that won\'t be a problem... If I can\'t make you fall for me, then I will die..."

Nathan\'s lips formed a thin line and a cold glint flashed through his eyes. He didn\'t like to hear those words from her. "Are you threatening me with your life?"

Abigail let out another chuckle. "Of course not. I\'m just stating a fact. If I die, you won\'t even cry,  right?" Abigail spat back.

Nathan squinted his eyes at her. "But my son will cry. So don\'t even think of dying." Nathan had the urge to scold her.

Abigail was not able to refute that. Nathan was too shameless to even use his son\'s name for this argument. She just heaved a sigh of defeat.

\'If I die, Ethan will not even know since only my soul will leave this body and I will disappear for good. The real Abigail still has a chance to go back to her body and live.\' Abigail\'s expression suddenly changed. The sullen look was visible in her eyes and Nathan had observed the changes in her mood.

"Are you okay?" Nathan asked her, concealing the worries in his tone.

Abigail just bobbed her head, not saying a word. Meanwhile, Nathan stared at her for a long moment. \'I don\'t know if she is serious about her words or she is just joking.\'

After a while, Nathan changed the topic. "By the way, Abigail... are you looking for your real parents? Do you want to know them?"

Abigail blinked and gave him a puzzled look. "My parents?"
