Chapter 233 Abigail's Threat

Day Twenty Five...

~~*****~~

Cherry was completely at a loss for words. She didn't know what kind of prank this was. Aiden Wu was confessing to her in front of the public, asking her to be his girlfriend.

'He has got to have a few loose screws in his head to do this to someone he barely knows.' Cherry thought to herself while eyeing Aiden in disbelief.

Then she looked around, noticing that the people's attention was glued to them. She didn't want to be the center of people's attraction in this Cafe.n0ve(l)bi(n.)co/m

She clenched her fists tightly and slammed her eyes shut. She had the urge to beat someone for making her feel embarrassed.

Cherry wished that the ground would open up and swallow her whole in order to hide from these people.

'This is his fault. Why the hell is he doing this to me? Can't he just leave me alone?' Cherry was almost losing her patience.

They were in this kind of awkward situation when Abigail arrived and entered the Cafe. She blinked her eyes in confusion.

'Eh? What is Aiden doing there, kneeling in front of Cherry? Cherry looks so mad. I told him to buy me some time... not to create a scene.' Abigail facepalmed as she watched the three of them.

The crowd began cheering for them, urging Cherry to answer Aiden.

"Miss Beautiful, choose now between the two men!"

"If you don't want any of them, you can just give him to me."

"Choose Mr. Aiden Wu! Many ladies dream of receiving a proper confession from him!"

"OMG! The suspense is killing me."

The cheering of the crowd made Cherry become more annoyed. She didn't wish to have this unwanted attention. She just wanted them to shut up and leave her alone!

Abigail was carrying Cherry's backpack as she walked towards Spade. Spade smiled thinking that Black Rose was the one approaching him. The smile on his face disappeared when he turned and saw Abigail. The woman was wearing a cap and a mask to hide her face from the public.

'Who is she? What is she doing here? Why is she standing in front of me?' Spade mused to himself, his eyes silently sizing her up from top to bottom.

To his surprise, Abigail pushed him and pinned him to the wall. He was caught off guard by her sudden attack.

Before he could say a word, he felt something sharp at his neck. Damn! The woman was holding a small dagger. And she was surprisingly strong. He was immobilized in his spot.

'Damn. Is she an assassin? But we are here in a public place. Is she not afraid to get caught?' Spade tossed a look at his surroundings, contemplating whether he should scream to attract people's attention.

"One wrong move and I will cut your neck here." Abigail threatened Spade with her stone cold voice. Spade felt the chill spreading throughout his body after hearing her warning.

"W-Who are you? W-What do you want?" Spade's lips were trembling from anxiousness. His body began to sweat. This was the first time he was put in this helpless situation. Was he going to die? Did their enemies send this assassin?

"I'm here to give you a warning... Spade..."

​ His body stiffened at the mention of his name. This woman knew his identity. He was too scared to speak up.

"Stay away from Black Rose. Don't try to use that woman. And... you should tell your Boss... he should return Phantomflake's body to where she should belong... otherwise, he and your organization will meet their demise."

Spade: "..."

'Fuck! Who is she?! She even knows about Phantomflake! She knows that Phantomflake is now in our custody!' Spade couldn't think at this moment. He was being attacked by this mysterious woman.

'Is she another member of Phantom's Assassin Guild? Another survivor?'

Spade wanted to see her face but she was wearing a mask. All he could see was her sharp emerald eyes.

Abigail smiled inwardly. She missed threatening someone like this. She could tell that Spade was so nervous. But of course, she didn't plan on killing him. She wouldn't kill as long as she was in Abigail's body. She wouldn't turn Abigail into a killer.

Spade almost forgot to breathe. Before he knew it, Abigail already let go of him. She even fixed his collar. "How is your laptop? Have you fixed it? Try to contact Black Rose again and I will send you another virus."

Abigail said her last warning before turning around to leave. Spade just looked at her departing back, shocked!

'Wait! Is she SizzlingAugust08?'
