Abigail blinked several times just staring at Nathan in puzzlement. But because Nathan acted so thoughtful, preparing a tea for her, Abigail gratefully accepted it and drank without question asked.

Nathan's eyes sparkled when Abigail began drinking the tea. His lips twitched, fighting a smile. 'Got you!' Nathan murmured to himself.

"Let's sit down for a while. Our chauffeur is not yet around. I asked him to do some errands for me." Nathan said as an alibi.

He went to the mini bar counter, taking a wine glass and a bottle of champagne. After opening the bottle, he poured the champagne on his glass, half-full.

"That's unfair!" Abigail complained as she watched Nathan taking a sip of his champagne. "I thought you were not going to drink tonight. And I would drink them on your behalf. Why did you just give me tea?"

"Because it's hot. And you need it." Nathan nonchalantly responded as he joined her on the long couch.

"I don't feel cold. Please share some champagne with me," Abigail mumbled, extending her hand in front of Nathan. She was reaching for the bottle of wine Nathan was holding in his left hand.

But Nathan raised it, keeping the bottle away from her. "Finish your tea first," he commanded.

Abigail cursed him inwardly, glaring at Nathan. She brought the cup of tea close to her face and started blowing some air on it. She was cooling it down so that she could finish her tea in just one gulp.

Nathan tried his best to conceal the mischievous smile that was threatening to show up from the corners of his lips. He was already counting in his mind. It was just a matter of time and the truth serum would take effect.

Chantha informed him that the serum would come into effect within five to ten minutes after the person drank it.

To not make it obvious that he was waiting for something, Nathan turned on the wide flat screen TV using the remote control.

Abigail frowned once again, wondering if Nathan wanted to stay in the hotel for a long moment. It looked like he wasn't in a hurry to go home anymore.

Abigail just leaned her back on the sofa, sitting leisurely and comfortably. Then she shifted her gaze from Nathan to the TV screen. Both of them became silent. No one initiated to talk. The only sound they could hear was the sound coming from the television.

Ten minutes later… Nathan finally spoke up, questioning her.

"Why did you use Stephen's name, instead of mine, a while ago? Do you think he is more influential than me?" Nathan was dying to ask her this question. This was the reason he got upset with her in the Lady's room.

Abigail turned in his direction, raising her eyebrow. She was giving him a ridiculing look.

"Are you seriously clueless about that? Have you forgotten? You gave me rules. And one of them is that… I am not allowed to mention your name. How am I supposed to use your name? I don't want you to get mad at me. I already broke your first rule of not making a scene."

"What a stupid question is that?" Abigail snorted. "Of course, you are more powerful and influential than Stephen," she added, answering his last question.

Nathan: "..."

Nathan was at a loss for words. Abigail had a point. And now, he could tell that the serum already took effect. She just blatantly said that he just asked her a stupid question, mocking Nathan.

'Okay. Patience, Nathan. Patience! Don't get mad. You are here to dig more information from her.'

Nathan decided to ask her a few more questions, wondering how honest Abigail would be in answering each question.

Nathan moved closer to her, holding her shoulders, and asked, "Who ruined your dress? Did they hurt you?"

Abigail's giggle bubbled up inside the room when she heard that question. She shook her head and responded truthfully. Damn, the truth serum was truly effective!

"Nope. I was the one who ruined my own clothes and hurt my shoulder to get some bruises. Those two women were no match for me. And I would get in trouble once they ran their mouths so I had to look weak as if they also harassed me."

Nathan's brows were drawn together after hearing that. He knew it! Abigail could beat those two women alone.

Nathan could only shake his head helplessly. Now, he had just proven that Abigail was a clever woman and she was good at scheming.

'A dangerous scheming woman,' Nathan thought to himself, sucking his teeth. He looked at her with piercing blue eyes, yet Abigail was not frightened at all even though Nathan already knew what she had done.

'Oh right. She will not remember this once the effect of the serum fades out.'

Nathan fell silent for a moment but his eyes were still fixed on her. His expression returned to being aloof and cold.

Now, it was about time to ask Abigail about her true motives for approaching Ethan and him. He had so many questions in mind that he wanted to know about her.

'Should I ask her again if she faked her suicide?' For some unknown reason, Nathan got curious if Abigail was truly in danger. Was she telling the truth that someone tried to kill her?

"Did you commit suicide or someone wanted to kill you? Which is true?"

Abigail let out another giggle before answering him.

"Both are true! Yes, I committed suicide and someone wanted to kill me… and that someone is you! NATHAN, the Devil! I hate you!" Abigail started punching Nathan's chest.

Nathan: "..."

Nathan was confused hearing those words from her.

'Uh-oh! She is revealing too much!' Bam-Bam thought to himself.

Nathan grabbed her hands as she continued punching him. Getting riled up by her answers, Nathan used his body to press her against the sofa thus stopping her from punching him. With their faces so close at each other, he threw another question.

"What did you say? You hate me?! But you said you like me? So you lied? Do you like me or do you hate me?" Nathan asked through his gritted teeth.

Abigail blinked as she focused on his gorgeous face. He was just a few inches away from her so she couldn't stop her eyes from scanning his face.

Her next words surprised Nathan to the core. "You are so handsome." She mumbled, then her gaze fell on his lips. "I wanna kiss you."

Nathan's mind went blank as soon as he absorbed her last words. 'What the hell is she talking about?'

Because Nathan was put in a trance, he unknowingly loosened his grip on her hands. This action caused Abigail to be able to move.

Before Nathan could react, he felt a strong force pushing him to the opposite side.

Thud!

Nathan's back was now lying on the surface of the couch and Abigail was now the one pinning him down.

He was about to move and push her away but in a flash, Abigail pressed his shoulders down and brought her face closer to his. Then in just a split second, he found himself being kissed by the woman who was on top of him. Her soft lips were now pressed against his lips, not allowing him to say another word.

Nathan: 0_0
