100 Days to Seduce the Devil-Chapter 288 Attend A Family Day

Day Thirty-Two

~~*****~~

"Why do you sound aggravated? I doubt that this was because of Cherry. Why do I feel like you are mad at Veronica because she wants Nathan for herself? Perhaps, are you jealous of her, Master?" Bam-Bam gave Abigail a suspicious look while smirking at her teasingly.

Abigail glared at Bam-Bam. "Of course not! Why would I get jealous of her? She's nothing compared to me. I'm mad at her for hurting Black Rose. Nathan has nothing to do with my feelings." She blatantly denied it.

However, Bam-Bam wouldn't buy that. He could sense that something was going on between Nathan and her. "Are you sure? Then let me ask you this..."

"What?" Abigail scowled at him.

"Once you return to your original body, are you going to kill Nathan Sparks as revenge for the death of your fellow assassins?" Bam-Bam asked her straightforwardly, wanting to know her thoughts.

Abigail fell silent for a moment. She didn't know what to say. Her mind suddenly went blank and she couldn't find the right answer to that question.

"See! You are hesitant to answer that question. If you feel the same way as before, you will definitely say yes. Hmm... Don't tell me... you are falling for him, Master?" Bam-Bam continued to interrogate Abigail.

Abigail opened her lips only to close them again. She wanted to refute but deep inside, she couldn't. Was she falling for Nathan? No way! Her mission was to gain his affection, not the other way around.

She knew that loving Nathan would be a great mistake. She shouldn't fall for him, otherwise, she would just get hurt in the end. Nathan would never love her back. He hated her so much. He could love Abigail, but not her real self... as Phantomflake.

"No. I can't," Abigail meekly answered him, not looking at Bam-Bam's eyes.

"Hmm. Is that a yes? You do have feelings for him but you can't let them grow, am I right? You are thinking that you are not supposed to love him." Bam-Bam sounded like a cupid who understood love, not a soul keeper.

"Stop it, Bam-Bam. Don't make fun of my feelings." Abigail didn't want to talk about this further. "Just go and search for the soul of this body. I don't need you here." She was now sending the magical creature away. He just ruined her mood by pointing out what was in her mind.

Bam-Bam's laughter bubbled up in the room. "Master, don't give me such a sour look. I'm not making fun of you. Instead, I wanna help you. You deserve to be happy. Why don't you start over with him, if you truly like him?!"

Abigail exhaled deeply, her eyes set ablaze. Without saying a word, Abigail extended her left hand, catching Bam-Bam's right ear. She pulled him by his ear and scolded him. "You were the one who started this mission because you were "BORED". So don't pretend that you care about my feelings."

"You transferred my soul to this body, giving me a mission of making Nathan fall for me in one hundred days! After accomplishing this mission, I can return to my body and live! But what will be the aftereffects? Nathan will fall for Abigail... not the real me!"

"Once I return to my real body, Nathan will torture me to death! So what's the point of doing this mission of making him fall in love with me? And why are you suggesting starting over with him? Do you know how hard it is to make the devil fall in love? I wonder what kind of trick Monica did in the past to gain Nathan's affection. What was so great about her huh?"

"Why did he easily fall for her?" Abigail questioned Bam-Bam, still tugging his ear. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

"AWW! AWW! Master, let go of my ear! It hurts. It might fall off from your tugging!"

Abigail was panting when she was done taking out what was on her mind. She also let go of Bam-Bam's ear. She didn't mean to hurt him. She just got carried away by her feelings.

"Master, calm down. Don't shout. What if someone overhears us?" Bam-Bam tried to calm her down as he rubbed his ear.

"No one can hear us... Only robots are here," Abigail nonchalantly said.

"This is your fault, Bam-Bam. If you just let me die, things won't become more complicated between Nathan and me." Abigail mumbled, blaming the magical creature. Abigail was having conflicting thoughts right now. She wanted to reflect on Bam-Bam's words, but the more she thought about it the more she realized that things would just become more complicated between Nathan and her.

Hearing this from Abigail, Bam-Bam was also able to reflect on his action. He fell silent for a moment, analyzing the situation. When Abigail calmed down, Bam-Bam spoke up, sharing his opinion with her.

"If I let you die, then you would die hating Nathan and Nathan would hate you forever. You wouldn't know that he was your friend, SizzlingAugust08. Furthermore... you wouldn't meet Ethan. Did you regret it... Master?"

At the mention of Ethan's name, Abigail's heart clenched. Of course, she didn't regret meeting Ethan. She also felt relieved knowing that SizzlingAugust08 was alive. And her hatred for Nathan started to dissipate.

However, she didn't know why she suddenly became worried about what would happen in the coming days... in the future. She started to care about Ethan and Nathan. And she began to fear facing the reality that the father and son would never forgive her for killing the most important person in their lives... It was Monica.

She just found herself hoping that Monica was not a good person so that she could justify her action. And now, she wanted to unfold the truth behind Monica becoming Shining Star. She thought she found the opportunity that would help her reduce Nathan's hatred if she proved that Monica lied to him. But everything was still uncertain. Monica was also a great puzzle she had to solve.

"Master? Answer me... Did you regret it? Meeting Ethan?" Bam-Bam repeated his question while looking at her meaningfully.

Abigail took a deep sigh before shaking her head. "No. I don't regret it. Ethan is a very wonderful child. Meeting him is something I will never regret in this life."

Bam-Bam smiled tenderly when he heard that.

"But I felt sorry for him... I don't deserve his love and kindness..." Abigail mumbled, looking down.

Bam-Bam flew towards her. Then he landed on the surface next to Abigail. Bam-Bam sat beside Abigail and said, "Just take care of him as a real mother does. That is the least you can do for him and to lessen the guilt in your heart. Then later on... you will thank me... and not blame me for not letting you die."

Bam-Bam touched Abigail's hand. Patting her gently, Bam-Bam said goodbye and disappeared from Abigail's sight. Abigail just slammed her eyes shut, gathering her emotions. The room was engulfed by deafening silence.

Abigail didn't know how long she spaced out in that room. A knocking sound snapped her back to the present. She stood up and slowly traced her steps to the door. She didn't know why talking with Bam-Bam could be energy-draining as this.

Abigail opened the door only to be surprised to see the person standing outside. She thought she would see Cherry. But she was mistaken. A cute and charming child stood there, greeting her with his warm smile.

"Miss Abi!" Little Ethan's voice echoed in the hallway.

Abigail froze in her spot. She was caught off guard by Ethan's arrival. She was not ready to see him, especially after talking to Bam-Bam about Ethan and Nathan. Before she could utter a word, Little Ethan pounced on her, hugging her waist.

Abigail stayed rooted in her spot, looking at the young boy. Then she felt Ethan hugging her tightly as if he was afraid to let go. The young boy was very silent. He just kept embracing her with his little arms.

"Ethan? Are you okay? Is there something wrong?" Abigail finally found her voice to speak up. She started to stroke Ethan's hair and rubbed his back.

After a while, Ethan shook his head and gazed up to meet her eyes. "Miss Abi..." Ethan softly called her name. It seemed like he had something to tell her. But he decided to keep it to himself.

"Where is Dad?" Ethan asked her.

"Your Dad and godfathers went out to buy groceries and food for our dinner tonight. Are you tired? How's school?" Abigail grabbed Ethan's hand and pulled him inside her room.

"School is fine. We will have a family day next week. I just hope you and Dad can attend the school event. Are you available Miss Abi? Can you become my Mom... for that day?" Ethan asked Abigail expectantly.

Abigail was rendered speechless for a moment. She didn't want to disappoint Ethan but Nathan would be a problem. Would he allow her to attend the family day with them?

"Little Ethan... you should consult your father about this first..." Abigail patted his head. She didn't want to reject or refuse his request directly. It's just that, she knew that Nathan wouldn't allow her to attend the family day. People might mistake them for a couple.

"You have nothing to worry about Dad. He will agree. Just say yes, Miss Abi. My classmates are bringing their parents. I am the only one who doesn't have a mother... So if you will not come... it is best for me not to attend the school event..." Ethan looked sad when he said those words.

"Alright! Alright! I agree. But we have to consult your father first..."

"Consult me about what?" Nathan suddenly appeared from out of nowhere.
