Chapter 104 Truth Serum

Day Eight…

~~*****~~

Nathan couldn't hide the fury in his eyes. His ego was hurt when Abigail mentioned another guy's name. How could she do that in front of him? He had the urge to remove the tuxedo suit that he used to cover her body.

But unknown to him, Abigail had no choice. She had to use Stephen's name as she didn't want to offend Nathan by mentioning his name without his consent. Besides, Stephen gave her his calling card and told her to just call him if ever she would be in trouble.

"Can we settle this peacefully?" Madam Priya didn't wish to make this incident a big deal. Furthermore, she was impressed by Abigail's composure. She didn't lose her cool while the two ladies kept yelling at her, calling her bitch.

If she was in Abigail's position, she would also like to slap those loud and scandalous women. They were the ones who didn't have good manners, being war freaks.

The guy also toned down a little bit when he received Stephen Zhao's calling card. He didn't want to offend one of the Magnificent Trio. Who knows this woman is very special to Stephen?

Stephen was connected to Nathan Sparks so he wouldn't dare challenge them.

"Okay. We will not pursue this further. But we want her to apologize to both women," the guy in a white tuxedo insisted on making Abigail apologize to the two ladies so that they wouldn't lose a face in front of Madam Priya.

"I refuse to apologize. They should be the ones apologizing to me," Abigail declared, holding her head so high.

"She's shameless!" The tallest woman wanted to charge in her direction once again but the guards stopped her already.

"I think my woman here is at fault." Nathan suddenly declared, surprising everyone inside. He was supposed to defend Abigail but he admitted that Abigail was the one who was at fault.

Abigail hastily turned at Nathan, eyeing him with disbelief. She couldn't believe that he would sell her out just like that!

"I failed to discipline her so she caused a ruckus here. So allow me to punish her by myself," Nathan said sternly, grabbing Abigail's wrist tightly.

Abigail tried to struggle against his grip but fail. She shot him a deathly glare as she pursed her lips. She wanted to punch this guy.

After a while, a soft giggle reverberated inside the Lady's room. Madam Priya failed to hold her laughter. She found Abigail and Nathan so cute. And when she heard him saying about punishing Abigail by himself, Madam Priya thought of something wild and naughty.

"Now… if you may excuse us…" Nathan gently pulled Abigail closer to him as the guards made a path for them.

Madam Priya could only smile as she nodded her head in agreement, allowing the two to leave.

"Hey, they are leaving just like that?" The two ladies were dissatisfied with this turn of events. They suffered physically because of Abigail.

"Stop chasing after them…" Madam Priyanshi advised them. "You don't want to be in real trouble, do you?" She smiled at them meaningfully.

"What do you mean by that, Madam?" The man in a white tuxedo asked her curiously.

"The man just now… I'm surprised that you didn't recognize him." She said, smiling from ear to ear.

"Huh?"

"Who is he?"

"Nathan Sparks," she replied matter-of-factly, before turning around to leave.

Everyone: "..."

'What? That guy just now… was Nathan Sparks?'

Only Madam Priyanshi Patel was able to recognize Nathan Sparks. It was because of his familiar aura and his voice. She met him several times because of their company's project collaboration before.

Meanwhile… Nathan continued to pull Abigail going to the VIP suite that he booked for them. After a few minutes, they were back inside VIP room number 401.

Nathan locked the door before turning around as he faced Abigail with a dark expression on his face. He already removed his silver mask.

"What is that? Why did you have to stab me at my back, selling me out to them? You traitor!" Abigail complained, venting out her frustration. She couldn't get over when Nathan admitted that Abigail was at fault, instead of supporting her.

"I told you not to create a scene and attract people's attention. Why did you have to create trouble out there?" Nathan spat back at her, not backing down.

"For goodness' sake, I did it in the Lady's comfort room where there were only the three of us. I didn't attract people's attention." Abigail reasoned out.

"They called me a bitch and a whore! I wouldn't let it slide." Abigail added. "They even wished that I'm dead."

Nathan fell silent after hearing that. Well, Abigail had the right to get mad. But… he was still upset with her… because of Stephen.

The room was suddenly engulfed by awkwardness and deafening silence. Both of them were upset at each other.

But Nathan's eyes softened when his gaze fell on her ruined and soaked gown. She had to change otherwise, she might catch a cold.

"Go and remove your wet dress. There is a bathrobe in the cabinet. I will just get you a new set of clothes before going home." Nathan said before coming out of the room.

Bam!

Abigail just watched the closed door where Nathan passed through. Going home? As early? What kind of date is this?

Abigail was so pissed off. She removed her mask and threw it on the floor, together with Nathan's tuxedo suit as she marched to the bathroom with stomping feet.

On the other hand, Nathan called Chantha to give her command.

"Get me a new set of clothes for a woman," Nathan ordered in his stern voice.

"Okay, Boss!" Chantha promptly responded as soon as she sensed that their Supreme Leader was in a bad mood. She didn't dare tease him. "Is there anything more?"

"Yes," Nathan responded. "Did you bring a sample of our latest creation…Truth Serum?"

Chantha was taken aback for a moment. 'Eh? A truth serum? What is Supreme Leader planning to do with it?'

"Y-Yes… I have one here. Why, Boss?"

"Don't ask. I need it." Nathan said with finality, dismissing Chantha after giving her the instruction.
