Chapter 380 Accepting The Dragon Lord's Offer

Day Forty-Three...

~~*****~~

Alexander stood up from his seat when he saw the presence of both Abigail and Richard. They were walking toward the balcony.

Alexander immediately picked up the bouquet of flowers and handed it over to Abigail.

"Flowers for you, Miss Abi." He said suavely while flashing his smile.

Abigail paused for a moment when she recognized that voice. She gazed at him intently and recalled that she had seen him before.

'He is the guy whom I met in front of Ethan's school... the one who protected me from being hit by a motorcycle.'

Abigail was surprised to see Alexander again. She didn't expect that she would meet him again, especially under these circumstances.

"It's you!" Abigail pointed her finger at him instead of accepting the bouquet of flowers.

"Do you know each other?" Richard couldn't help but ask them.

Alexander just let out a husky laugh. "You have a good memory, Miss Scarlett. I'm glad you remember me." Then he turned to Richard, explaining things to him.

"We didn't know each other personally. We just met a few days ago. And I didn't know that she is an actress," Alexander lied. He already knew Abigail's profession and he intentionally approached her that day.

Richard just bobbed his head. "By the way, I am here to finally introduce the both of you. This is Alexander, one of our investors. He is planning to sponsor a movie with us and I recommended you to be the main lead!"

"Again, this is Miss Abigail Scarlett... our most hardworking and versatile actress. I hope we can work well with this upcoming project." Richard signaled Abigail to accept the flower. Alexander was still holding it since Abigail ignored the bouquet.

Abigail just smiled awkwardly before accepting the flowers. Then Alexander pulled the chair for her, acting like a gentleman.New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Alexander shook his head. "No. Because the woman dies. You will die in this movie. Is it okay for you?"

Abigail was taken aback for a moment. 'What a coincidence... I am also dying in this movie project. Is this what will happen to me in real life too?'

Abigail shook her head, pushing the negative thoughts to the back of her mind. She disregarded that idea. She would never die. She had to survive. She still had so many things to do... things she had to fix, especially regarding her relationship with Nathan.

"Okay. I am accepting this movie." Abigail finally agreed to his offer.

Richard clapped his hands, rejoicing. Meanwhile, Alexander immediately laid the contract on the vacant surface of the table. He gave Richard a signal, telling him to explain the content.

"You can check the contract with your manager before signing it. But I know Ana will be happy to see this contract." Richard confidently said. Alexander had a great offer that someone couldn't refuse. It would be a waste if Abigail would reject it.

"Yeah. I will find some time to read the contract after the party," Abigail reassured him.

"Abi... There is something I want to give you. This is my welcome gift to you... for your Comeback. Congratulations. I will be looking forward to this collaboration." Alexander handed a jewelry box over to Abigail.

Abigail shifted her gaze to the jewelry box in front of her. Richard and Alexander urged her to open and accept the jewelry box. But Abigail was still contemplating whether to open it or accept it without opening it.

She opened the jewelry box only to see a diamond necklace. If she was the real Abigail, she would surely refuse this. But Phantomflake is Phantomflake.

She wouldn't refuse this offer just simply because she needed money for her mission. She needed to buy her equipment and weapons. Nathan and the Syphiruz Mafia destroyed all her hideouts and resources.

"Okay. Thank you for this," Abigail took the jewelry box while giving them a mischievous smile.

Richard: "..."

Alexander: "..."

Both men were caught off guard once again. They expected her to refuse the gift first.
