SEDUCING THE DEVIL - Season 2 Episode 81

Day Twenty-One…

~~*****~~

[ At Sparks Mansion… ]

Aiden showed up once again without telling them. He was the one who invited himself. No one asked him to come to the mansion. Abigail didn’t expect to see him today.

“Hi, Abi!” He friendly greeted her, his eyes gleaming with excitement. Though he was talking to Abigail, Aiden’s head was turning around looking for someone else.

Abigail raised her eyebrows. She sensed that Aiden was looking for someone. When Aiden approached her, Abigail didn’t forget to hit his shoulder.

“Awww! Why did you hit me? You punched so hard, do you know that?” Aiden complained to her, putting on a pitiful face. But he tried his best to look charming just in case Cherry would come out and see him.

Abigail just rolled her eyes skyward. “You deserve it. Your suggestion didn’t work out!” She lowered her hand and pinched Aiden’s waist.

Aiden winced again as he pouted his lips. He couldn’t fight back as Abigail was frightening.

“What suggestion are you talking about?” Aiden was clueless. He was slow sometimes to pick up things and figure them out.

Abigail had the urge to punch his face this time. Did he really want her to spell it out for him to understand?

‘This guy is so naive and dumb most of the time. How did he become an engineer?!’ Abigail sighed helplessly at that thought.

Abigail moved closer to him and she glanced from left to right just to see if there were other people around them. She didn’t want other people to hear what they were talking about.

With those thoughts in mind, Abigail immediately dragged Aiden to the garden. She was grabbing his collar and Aiden could only follow her.

“Hey, hey, my shirt! You are going to ruin it. Let go, Miss Abi.” Aiden felt so problematic. He didn’t want Cherry to see him being treated like this by Abigail. He looked like an obedient puppy who couldn’t fight back against his master.

He would definitely feel embarrassed, thinking that his charm points would decrease. He didn’t look manly whenever he was interacting with Abigail.

‘Damn! Why am I worrying about her impression of me? Abigail and Cherry are both fierce and scary. I wonder if the two are getting along well.’ Aiden thought to himself.

When Abigail finally let go of him, Aiden immediately fixed his clothes.

“What’s wrong? Why are you so grumpy today?” Aiden asked her again, feeling puzzled.

“My problem?!” Abigail paused for a moment as she inhaled deeply. Then she heaved a sigh before continuing her next words. “Is your best friend, Nathan!”

Aiden just blinked his eyes, still waiting for her explanation. Nathan was always someone’s problem. He was literally the source of anyone’s problem, especially by his competitors in both the underground world and the business world.

“What did he do this time to make you grumpy early this morning?”

Abigail pursed her lips and her eyebrows twitched. Her expression darkened further as she recalled what happened between them.

“My mission failed! I followed your suggestions. I almost stripped in front of him, but Nathan didn’t even react! Don’t tell me he is already immune to women’s beauty? Did he have erectile dysfunction?!” Abigail lamented to him.

“Cough! Cough! Cough!” Aiden choked as soon as he heard Abigail’s last remarks. He didn’t know whether he would laugh or cry. How could she assume that Nathan has erectile dysfunction?

He could tell that his best friend didn’t have a problem with that part. He was definitely ‘healthy’. Stephen mentioned something to him regarding how Nathan’s body reacted because of someone.

“Miss Abi… don’t you ever say that in front of Nathan… or else, you will be punished greatly. Who knows he might suddenly prove it to you in a way you will not like.” Aiden reminded her, smiling sheepishly. He tried his best to hold his laughter. Although Abigail’s statement was not a joke, it sounded so funny to him.

Meanwhile, Abigail remembered something. Nathan didn’t have erectile dysfunction as he got hard before. She even helped him relieve himself with the use of her poor hands. That was the first intimate moment they had together when the two of them were sober. It’s just that Nathan was under the influence of an aphrodisiac drug at the time. But the two of them gave each other consents as they touched each other.

“Don’t worry… I will not mention this to him. I still love my life.” Abigail thought that Nathan might kill her on the spot if she would mention the word erectile dysfunction in front of him.

‘Hmm… but what if… I can provoke him by telling him those words. What will he do? Will he make a move? A man hates to hurt his ego… should I try and tease him next time?’

Abigail was still lost in her deep thoughts when Aiden spoke up once again. “This is going to be hard. Nathan didn’t even react. Are you sure about that?”

“Yes… I’m sure. He just gave me a blank expression.” Abigail promptly responded.

Aiden eyed her suspiciously. “Are you sure? Nathan could hide his emotions effectively.”

“Hmm, can you tell me everything that transpired at that time?” Aiden had a teasing smile on his face. He was just curious about how Abigail seduced Nathan and how Nathan reacted. He wanted to see the whole picture.

But Abigail refused to tell him everything. It was so embarrassing on her part. She was the one who got affected by Nathan’s touch.

“No. I won’t tell you… Your idea sucks!” Abigail complained.

“Haha. Maybe your execution sucks, not mine!” Aiden retorted. But he hit his mouth right away upon meeting Abigail’s sharp and deadly gaze. He didn’t mean to talk back to her. It just came out of his blabbering mouth naturally.

“I’m sorry. Please don’t get mad!” Aiden apologized right away, rubbing his palms together in front of her.

Abigail just frowned but she decided to let it slide.

“Don’t worry. You are doing fine, Abi. If the person who did that to him is another woman, Nathan would have kicked her out already. But see. You are still here! That only meant… he was not offended at all by your advances!” Aiden said proudly. He even tapped Abigail’s back as he complimented her.

Aiden clapped his hand, catching Abigail’s attention.

“Alright! Let’s change our strategy!” Aiden declared, his eyes lit up as he got a new idea. “I have a new suggestion!”

Abigail knitted her brows once more. She hoped his suggestion would be effective this time.

“What is it?” Abigail asked him coldly, raising her eyebrow.

“Strategy Number 2! You should seduce him by touching his body… the different sensitive parts of his body. With this… we can really test if Nathan had a problem with his… uhm you know what I mean.” Aiden didn’t want to spell it out as he could already imagine Nathan’s scary look once he heard him saying that thing. Nathan would beat him up for questioning his ‘ability’.

Abigail just remained silent after hearing that suggestion. For the first time, she didn’t complain about his idea. It was because Abigail wanted to get even with Nathan.

This time, she wanted revenge. And she hoped Nathan would also get affected by her touches. She had to admit that Aiden’s suggestion was not a bad idea. She would like to try it out.

‘Just you wait, Nathan Sparks… You will lose to me and I will get my revenge,’ Abigail said inwardly, folding her hands into fists.

“So, what do you think? Can you do it?” Aiden asked her. He somehow felt anxious, worried that Abigail might not be able to pull it off.

“Of course, I can! I have to make him fall for me no matter what! I’ll accept that challenge!” Abigail declared, feeling so determined.

Aiden could only chuckle seeing her determination. He felt like Abigail was going to a war. She was aiming to survive!

“Miss Abi, I only have one reminder for you… You should run as soon as you notice the deathly gaze of Nathan. You must not offend him. He will not be kind to anyone… even if you are a woman… Nathan will not go easy on you!”

Abigail nodded her head in agreement. “I already knew that.”

“How?” Aiden asked her in confusion.

‘Based on my past experience! He killed my fellow assassins… they are all women!’ Abigail just shrugged her shoulders as she didn’t voice it out.

“Okay. Now, I’ve done my part, giving you my second piece of advice. Now… Can we go to the kitchen? I want to see– I mean I want to eat something!” Aiden said, wrapping his arm around her shoulder.

Just when Abigail was about to remove Aiden’s arm and pushed him away from her, someone just suddenly appeared in front of them, witnessing that scene.

A pair of sharp blue eyes were now directed at Aiden and to his arm that was wrapped around Abigail’s shoulders.

Both Abigail and Aiden were speechless upon seeing the man who was supposed to be at the office right now.

‘Damn! Why is Nathan here? Did he hear us? How long had he been standing there?’

Aiden also felt the pressure and heavy tension because of Nathan’s sudden arrival. Since he was still a bit slow in figuring out the situation, Aiden just cheerfully greeted Nathan but his arm was still hanging around Abigail’s shoulders.

“Hi Nate, wazzup bro?!”

Nathan’s eyebrows were drawn together as he responded in his stern cold voice, “What the hell are you doing here in my house, Engr. Wu?”

Aiden: “….???”

‘Is Nathan mad?’
