Chapter 429 "Nate... I'm Not Food"



Day Fifty...

~~*****~~

Abigail was surprised when she saw different items in the back passenger seat– a picnic basket containing food and drinks, picnic blankets, and an umbrella.Updated from n0velbIn.(c)o/m

'He came prepared,' Abigail thought to herself with a fluttering heart. She couldn't help but smile.

'So this is one of Nathan's romantic sides.'

"Cough! Cough!" Nathan cleared his throat to catch Abigail's attention. She was looking at the back while he was driving.

"Look at me, not at the back. Don't tell me you are hungry already?" Nathan teased her.

Abigail just let out a soft giggle. "Of course not. By the way, did you prepare... all of this?"

"No. Butler Li packed these things for us." Nathan lied.

Abigail raised her eyebrow in suspicion. She knew that Butler Li was enjoying his Day-Off today. She knew it because the butler informed her about it. Butler Li said he wouldn't accept any task from Abigail today because he was going to meet someone.

"You are bad at lying, Nate," Abigail mumbled, grinning from ear to ear.

"Hmmm. So don't ask the obvious." Nathan shifted his gaze back to the road.

"You can sleep and take a nap. You didn't get enough sleep. I'll just wake you up once we arrive," Nathan softly said. He was worried that Abigail would be sleepy and tired during their date. He wanted her to gather some strength.

"Are you sure? It's boring to drive while your passenger is sleeping."

"I'm fine. You have to save your energy. We will do some hiking." Nathan reminded her.

But Abigail shook her head and responded, "I'm riding your back. You can carry me later." She giggled naughtily.

Abigail couldn't describe her feelings but one thing was for sure... she felt so happy today. She wanted to seize this moment and enjoy Nathan's company.

For the first time, Abigail experienced how thoughtful Nathan was. He was guiding her all throughout their journey, either holding her hand or supporting her waist. He was not in a hurry to walk.

Abigail offered to help him carry the picnic basket but Nathan refused.

"Nate... why do I feel like we are the only people here? I thought this View-Deck is very famous to other tourists." Abigail looked around and didn't see anyone.

Nathan just shrugged his shoulders, feigning ignorance. Little did Abigail know, Nathan spent a lot just to reserve this View-Deck for them, not allowing other people to visit the view deck today. He didn't want other people disturb their date.

Half an hour later, Nathan and Abigail finally reached the view deck. Abigail gasped in amazement as she saw the scenic view of the hill.

"Oh my gosh! This is so beautiful! Amazing!" Abigail felt so close to nature. She could feel the wind and hear the birds and other animals. The surroundings were filled with green grasses and trees. It was the best spot for a picnic.

As Abigail was enjoying the scenery, Nathan started to lay the picnic blanket on the grass under the big acacia tree. He also prepared the food so that they could start eating.

Nathan was satisfied to see Abigail enjoying the view. He was glad that Abigail liked the place. Before, he planned of bringing Monica here. But Monica hated hiking.

When he was done preparing the food, Nathan stood up to approach Abigail. She was now standing in front of the giant telescope. She was using it to have a clearer view of the things below the hill. She saw Eagles flying around and other animals in the forest near the Caceres Hill.

She was busy spying on the wild animals in the forests when she suddenly felt two large hands wrapping her waist. Nathan hugged her from behind and he placed his chin over her shoulder.

"Do you like it?" Nathan softly asked her. He nuzzled his nose on her nape, giving her a soft kiss on the back of her neck.

Abigail's heart skipped a beat when she felt his soft lips touching her skin. That wonderful sensation gave her goosebumps.

'Damn!' Abigail bit on her lower lip. 'I want to kiss him... he succeeded in tempting me... But I am trying to avoid intimate things with him. How long will I be able to control myself.' Abigail closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

"Nate..." Abigail moaned his name when Nathan continued kissing her from behind. The tickling sensation was spreading throughout her body.

"S-Stop... Nate..." Abigail begged desperately. She might end up breaking her resolve. 'Phantom, strictly... No intimacy!' She reminded herself.

But she could tell that it would be hard especially if Nathan was the one taking the initiative... and making the moves.

"I'm hungry!" Abigail tried to divert Nathan's attention but the devil continued holding her in place.

"I'm hungry too," Nathan mumbled sensually. He had a different connotation of the word 'Hungry'. He was hungry for her.

"Nate... I'm not food!"
