Not One, But Two!

Chapter 133

The faint smell of tobacco mixed with Greg's special scent enveloped Abigail. Suddenly, the peace of mind that she had never felt before came flooding in. It made Abigail have a little sense of sentimental attachment and happiness.

"I'm fine. I'm no weak lady. Even if you didn't come, I'd still be fine. Don't worry."

As she said that, Abigail gently patted Greg's back. Somehow, the words that escaped from her mouth upset Greg a little.

"Can't you act more like a woman?" Greg asked sullenly, feeling upset.

I was worried sick. Yet, this woman said she can handle the situation alone, and it's the same with or without me. This feeling of not being needed by my wifey is really terrible.

As if he wanted to vent out his frustration, but also maybe because of other reasons, Greg abruptly lowered his head and kissed Abigail's cherry lips fiercely.

Immediately, Abigail's face crimsoned, and she felt as if it was about to go up in flames.

Is this man crazy? There are like more than twenty people behind him. What's he doing now?

Abigail struggled to free herself.

However, the more she struggled, the deeper Greg's kiss got. As a matter of fact, he kissed even harder. At that moment, Abigail felt as if Greg wanted to gulf her down with this kiss.

This devilish man! Scoundrel! Ruffian!

Seeing that she could not wriggle out, Abigail raised her foot and stepped on the back of Greg's foot violently.

Greg was in so much pain that he had no choice but to let go of Abigail.

"Can you be a little more submissive?" Greg was bummed.

"Can you not kiss me as you wish regardless of the circumstances and place?" Abigail asked angrily instead of answering him. She was nearly suffocated by the kiss.

Even though there was an angry flame flickering in Abigail's eyes, her whole person was exceptionally dazzling.

All of a sudden, Greg let out a laugh. Then, he said in a ruffian manner, "No! I will kiss you whenever I want. Besides, you went missing. I was worried sick. So, what's wrong with me kissing you for a while? Try touching my heart, which had almost stopped beating!" As he said that, Greg grabbed Abigail's hand and asked her to touch his chest.

"Can you feel it?"

Abigail was directly angered to the point of exhaustion.

In terms of the extent of shamelessness, Greg is second to none!

Even so, it was him who had surrounded Abigail with warmth. No matter how hard she tried, Abigail simply could not get angry.

Seeing Abigail was glaring at him, but the corners of her mouth was slightly raised, Greg instantly smiled brightly.

"Don't scare me like this in the future. Even if you have the ability to protect yourself, please spare me some dignity, alright? Let me feel useful as a man for a little."

Wow. Such extreme grievance coming from his words.

Once again, Abigail's heart skipped a beat.

Troy could not stand this anymore.

Before this, I only knew that when Mr. Buckley courted women, he would disregard everything. However, I didn't expect he would mutter those shameless words.

After that, Troy hurriedly turned his head and signaled others to not look nor listen to what was contrary to propriety.

Meanwhile, Quinn was completely pissed off.

I spent money to ask people to kidnap Abigail. It was not to see them showing their affections and tormenting my eyes in front of me!

"Are you two done messing around? Let go of my wife and come at me!"

At once, Quinn's strong voice attracted Greg's attention.

After making sure that Abigail was not in any danger, Greg directly evoked the stool that was originally bounding Abigail and sat down. Then, he involuntarily placed Abigail on his lap.

"Let go of me!" Abigail felt extremely embarrassed.

Why does this man always act on impulse?

Greg ignored Abigail's resistance. Instead, he hugged her tightly. Then, he looked at Quinn's angry expression and said with a smirk, "Let go of your wife? Why?"

Quinn looked at Greg with a smile, but the smile did not reach his eyes. It even had a trace of killing intent. Quinn could not help but be stunned.

Quinn looked at Greg with a smile, but the smile did not reach his eyes. It even had a trace of killing intent. Quinn could not help but be stunned.

"Wife and children should not be implicated in this matter. Can you all not—"

"Wife and children should not be implicated, you say? Then, I shall ask you—could it be that my woman is a guy?"

Greg's ability to twist words was really something else. Yet, he could make his words sound so logical and grandiose.

Abigail immediately turned her head.

This man is simply too shameless!

When he was asked that by Greg, Quinn instantly paused for a moment.

"She's a female."

"Then why did you kidnap her? Why didn't you kidnap me? Isn't kidnapping me to threaten her more effective than directly kidnapping her?"

Greg's remarks shook Quinn.

That's right! Why didn't I think of kidnapping the person Abigail cares about the most in order to threaten her?

Seeing that Quinn was really thinking about this possibility, Abigail sighed slightly. Meanwhile, Troy could not stand seeing Quinn's stupidity.

Kidnap Greg? I'm afraid he'd face a consequence even more dreadful than this. However, this fool is still seriously thinking about Greg's suggestion. He is seriously like no other!

Unlike Quinn, Teal was clear-headed. Seeing that her husband was being toyed by Greg, she could not help sobbing. "Sir, I know that my husband has offended you, and I can see that you all are not ordinary people. Because of my health, my husband was anxious and did such a stupid thing. I know it's not enough of a reason for him to make mistakes. I just wish you would lash out your anger at me. I'm dying, but my husband has a great future. So, please let him go. I'm the original culprit. I'm the one who made him jump headfirst into danger. This lady was hurt by my husband. Sir, tell me: What should I do in order for you to vent your anger? As long as you say it, I will do it. I simply hope you can let my husband go."

Teal's voice was not loud, and she was stammering. This in turn made people feel very sorry for her as they listened to her.

When Quinn heard his wife say this, he immediately roared, "Teal, you won't die! This woman is called Abigail Kain. She's known as the best surgeon in the world, and there is no failed surgery in her hands. As long as she is willing to save you , you still have hope."

Seeing Quinn being like this, Abigail sighed and said, "Mr. Milburn, like I said, I can't perform this operation. Please spend the rest of the time left with Mrs. Milburn wisely."

"No! You can do it! You just don't want to help us, do you? You just—"

Before Quinn could finish his words, the dagger in Greg's hand flew out. It brushed against the side of Quinn's ear and pierced into the wall behind him. The entire dagger was submerged, showing the force it was thrown with.

If the main purpose of this dagger was to pierce into the body of a person, the outcome would be unimaginable.

At the sight of that, Teal almost fainted.

Drops of cold sweat dripped down Quinn's forehead. He was dumbfounded.

Just now, he clearly felt the feeling of brushing past death.

He always thought he was not afraid of death. However, he was really afraid just now.

Greg said indifferently, "She already said your wife can't be saved. So, what are you still babbling about? She is a human being, not a deity. If all diseases could be cured, would there still be dead people in this world? I dare you to force my woman again."

Without a doubt, this was an obvious threat.

Quinn pursed his lips and said, "But she is the best surgeon in the world."

"The best surgeon in the world is also a human being. Let's forget the fact that she said that your wife can't be saved. Even if she can, why does she have to save your wife?"

Quinn looked ot Greg with o smile, but the smile did not reoch his eyes. It even hod o troce of killing intent. Quinn could not help but be stunned.

"Wife ond children should not be implicoted in this motter. Con you oll not—"

"Wife ond children should not be implicoted, you soy? Then, I sholl osk you—could it be thot my womon is o guy?"

Greg's obility to twist words wos reolly something else. Yet, he could moke his words sound so logicol ond grondiose.

Abigoil immediotely turned her heod.

This mon is simply too shomeless!

When he wos osked thot by Greg, Quinn instontly poused for o moment.

"She's o femole."

"Then why did you kidnop her? Why didn't you kidnop me? Isn't kidnopping me to threoten her more effective thon directly kidnopping her?"

Greg's remorks shook Quinn. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Thot's right! Why didn't I think of kidnopping the person Abigoil cores obout the most in order to threoten her?

Seeing thot Quinn wos reolly thinking obout this possibility, Abigoil sighed slightly. Meonwhile, Troy could not stond seeing Quinn's stupidity.

Kidnop Greg? I'm ofroid he'd foce o consequence even more dreodful thon this. However, this fool is still seriously thinking obout Greg's suggestion. He is seriously like no other!

Unlike Quinn, Teol wos cleor-heoded. Seeing thot her husbond wos being toyed by Greg, she could not help sobbing. "Sir, I know thot my husbond hos offended you, ond I con see thot you oll ore not ordinory people. Becouse of my heolth, my husbond wos onxious ond did such o stupid thing. I know it's not enough of o reoson for him to moke mistokes. I just wish you would losh out your onger ot me. I'm dying, but my husbond hos o greot future. So, pleose let him go. I'm the originol culprit. I'm the one who mode him jump heodfirst into donger. This lody wos hurt by my husbond. Sir, tell me: Whot should I do in order for you to vent your onger? As long os you soy it, I will do it. I simply hope you con let my husbond go."

Teol's voice wos not loud, ond she wos stommering. This in turn mode people feel very sorry for her os they listened to her.

When Quinn heord his wife soy this, he immediotely roored, "Teol, you won't die! This womon is colled Abigoil Koin. She's known os the best surgeon in the world, ond there is no foiled surgery in her honds. As long os she is willing to sove you , you still hove hope."

Seeing Quinn being like this, Abigoil sighed ond soid, "Mr. Milburn, like I soid, I con't perform this operotion. Pleose spend the rest of the time left with Mrs. Milburn wisely."

"No! You con do it! You just don't wont to help us, do you? You just—"

Before Quinn could finish his words, the dogger in Greg's hond flew out. It brushed ogoinst the side of Quinn's eor ond pierced into the woll behind him. The entire dogger wos submerged, showing the force it wos thrown with.

If the moin purpose of this dogger wos to pierce into the body of o person, the outcome would be unimoginoble.

At the sight of thot, Teol olmost fointed.

Drops of cold sweot dripped down Quinn's foreheod. He wos dumbfounded.

Just now, he cleorly felt the feeling of brushing post deoth.

He olwoys thought he wos not ofroid of deoth. However, he wos reolly ofroid just now.

Greg soid indifferently, "She olreody soid your wife con't be soved. So, whot ore you still bobbling obout? She is o humon being, not o deity. If oll diseoses could be cured, would there still be deod people in this world? I dore you to force my womon ogoin."

Without o doubt, this wos on obvious threot.

Quinn pursed his lips ond soid, "But she is the best surgeon in the world."

"The best surgeon in the world is olso o humon being. Let's forget the foct thot she soid thot your wife con't be soved. Even if she con, why does she hove to sove your wife?"

"I-I have money. I can pay her."

Quinn looked up abruptly.

However, Greg merely sneered, "Does my woman look like she's short of money?"

Quinn looked at Abigail. Although she was not wearing branded items, she was indeed a low-key rich person, considering she was wearing custom-made clothes.

At that moment, Quinn did not know what to say.

Gently holding Greg's hand, Abigail whispered, "Cast aside your ruffian aura."

"I'm defending you against injustice!" Greg frowned slightly.

"There's no need."

With that, Abigail wanted to stand up from Greg's lap, but the man refused to let go.

"Let go!"

"No, I won't!"

At this moment, Greg was fighting with Abigail like a child.

Abigail had really lost her temper, and she ignored the man directly. She looked at Quinn and Teal, and said in a low voice, "I can prescribe a medicine for Mrs. Milburn to take back. Even so, this medicine can only cure the symptoms but not the root cause. Mrs. Milburn, besides delaying the development of the illness and controlling it, we have no other ways to treat you. If we're curing you through conservative treatment, it is estimated that you should be able to live for 6 months. If you take extra care, it may be longer. It's just that this is the best that I can do to help you."

Teal was stunned. She never thought that even though Quinn had gone so far, Abigail would still be willing to help them.

Teal struggled to kneel down in front of Abigail.

"Dr. Kain, I'm sorry. I apologize on his behalf. I don't care how long I can live. Don't worry. I'll keep an eye on him in the future and never let him do the things he did today. If he still does it to you, I will directly end my life in front of him, breaking his intentions."

"Teal, what nonsense are you talking about?" Quinn was thoroughly frightened. He knew that although his wife looked gentle outwardly, she was actually tough on the inside. Once she gave her words, she would absolutely keep her promise.

Quinn's whole body went limp.

"I don't want you to die. I just want to have a good life with you for a few more years. Why is God not willing to fulfill my wish?"

At this moment, Quinn, a grown man, was crying like a baby.

Abigail's heart was terribly uncomfortable.

Humans are so insignificant and powerless in the face of disease. Even though I am skilled in medicine, I still cannot battle against death itself.

Also, Quinn's feelings for Teal moved Abigail a little.

Abigail wanted to get up, but Greg's embrace was tight. This annoyed Abigail a little.

"Let go of me! I'm going to check on her!"

Noticing Abigail's mood swings, Greg did not stop her this time. He immediately let go of her.

Then, Abigail came to Teal. Reaching out her hand, she checked on Teal's pulse. Initially, she thought it was nothing, but suddenly, she said, "How strange."

"Dr. Kain, is there still hope?"

Quinn's arm hurt so badly that it hurt even with the slightest movement. Still, he disregarded the pain. He wanted to get up and go to Abigail, but Troy stopped him directly.

"Mr. Milburn, if you don't want your other hand to be detached, you'd better cooperate."

Greg glanced at Quinn lightly, and then turned his attention to Abigail.

My woman is so cool! Her frowning look when she's checking on the patient is even cooler!

Out of the blue, Greg took out his mobile phone and snapped photos of Abigail as she was checking Teal's pulse.

No one dared to speak, and the sound of cameras taking pictures resounded throughout the house.

In an instant, Abigail felt there were a million alpacas galloping through her heart.

This dork!

Abigail cursed inwardly, and her brows furrowed even tighter. As she checked on Teal's body, Abigail thought, Hmm… things just got interesting.
