Naffurty and Abigail

Abigail felt like crying. She was about to break down into tears.

She quickly drove the car.

It wasn't long before she arrived near Alex's home.

She saw that the place he lived at was very poor.

But, she didn't care.

She just stopped the car.

Alex as well didn't wait as he left the car as if in hurry.

He didn't look back for a moment as he climbed the stairs of his house.

He looked really anxious in Abigail's eyes.

Abigail was going to leave.

But, just then she remembered that she had some of his stuff. Including his bike key, his id card and some of his money.

" I better give this back to that bastard, I want no connection with him anymore, " She muttered in disgust as she got out of the car.

She quickly followed Asher who was by now standing before a room without any lights on.

He went inside and Abigail followed.

But, what she saw made her stop in her tracks.

On the bed inside the room lied a frail old women.

She looked very sick.

Abigail could even feel a death aura around her, as if this women was going to die soon.

But, her eyes couldn't be taken off this women.

" Asher... Where were you for so long? " The women said with a frail voice.

" Ah. Mother, actually I had a very serious mission to do. So, I was a bit late, " In Abigail's eyes, Asher even though was feeling pain from all over his body he smiled gently in front of this women.

Abigail couldn't help but stop in her tracks, as she just saw them.

Myriads of emotions flashed through her eyes as the moment passed.

" Mother, I'll make dinner for us. You haven't taken medicines right? " Asher said.

" No. Naffurty came in evening and made dinner. She also gave me medicines. I was just worried for you. You are not hurt right? " Asher's mother asked worriedly.

" No. I'm perfectly fine. It's good that you ate, " Asher said as he tucked his mother in the bed.

Asher's mother seemed to not have noticed Abigail who had hidden her presence.

She went to sleep with a relieved expression once seeing her son's face.

As for Asher he glared at Abigail as he calmly walked by her.

He looked a lot more composed now than before. As if a big load was taken off his chest.

Abigail looked at the sleeping women on the bed and then followed Asher.

" Asher, is that women... "

" She is my mother. What do you want? Weren't you going to leave? " Alex asked.

" Is she the reason, why you needed the money? " Abigail asked.

Alex looked at her silently for a moment.

He then turned around and sighed.

" Yes... " He said with a complicated expression.

" Why didn't you say it earlier? " Abigail gently asked.

" I-I... " Alex closed his eyes.

He then bluntly said, " Now that you know, it doesn't matter. I need 50% of what you got today. "

" ... I won't give you 50% , " Abigai said gently.

" Why? I worked hard for it! I deserve it!! " Alex stared at her with angry expression, but then as if understanding his situation, he calmed himself down forcefully.

"...But, 40% no 30% is okay as well. I just need enough to treat her. After that we will leave this city. I promise, " Alex said as he clencehed his fist.

But, as Alex spoke, the gentleness in Abigail's eyes multiplied. Her emotions were already stirred.

She slowly moved forward and hugged Alex, " You're just like me. I'm sorry, I didn't understand you before. I was the one in the wrong. "

" While I selfishly hoped for someone to fight alongside me. You did everything on your own. You don't need to take 50% or some part. I'll give you everything that I have... And if one day, you help me get revenge for my family, then I'll give myself to you as well, " Abigail gently said as she hugged Asher, as if consoling him.

She for the first time felt that she had found someone like her.

Someone with something they strived for and were ready to go to any lengths for that.

She had lived for so many years, but she always saw people worthlessly living their lives and dying.

People like herself... She never found them.

Until today, until she saw the real face of the man who scammed her into becoming his wife.

The one who betrayed her trust and left her at her wedding night.

Abigail closed her eyes to stop the tears of relief leaving her eyes.

As for Asher, he was 'stunned' at the turn of situation.

But, he didn't make any move until Abigail by herself separated from him.

" We can treat your mother in the best hospitals in Winchester City. Tomorrow come with me, so that we can take back my- no our properties, " Abigail said with a smile.

Alex widened his eyes, as if he couldn't believe what Abigail had said.

" T-Thank you... But, I will one day pay you back... " Alex said.

Abigail smiled brightly.

She felt that this was the first time she was seeing real face of her husband.

He was like completely different person than the one she had the impression of before.

Her husband was really cute, she thought.

" Okay. Okay. We'll see, " She said with a smile that was full of emotions.

She then looked back at the frail old women in the small house.

" I'll come back to see my mother-in-law later, " She said.

" Should I drop you back? " Alex asked.

" You want me to leave already? " Abigail teased.

" Yeah. I need to sleep as well. I have work to do tomorrow, " Alex said straightforwardly.

Abigail was stunned, " Are you always dumb like this when you're not scamming girls? "

" Ah. I apologize for what happened at your wedding night, " Alex sighed, but it was clear that he didn't think much about it.

Abigail ignored that and smiled, " At least you have some conscience. I'll leave my own. But, don't forget to come looking for me. Okay? "

" Of course! " Alex said with a smile.

He looked like a proper kept man right now, who was happy at being sponsored by his beyond rich wife!

Abigail turned around after waving Alex goodbye.

She left.

Alex grinned as he saw her car going further away. His previous expression morphed into that of pure mocking.

He knew that he had made the progress. A lot of it!

Today was the first time that he had hugged Abigail.

To be clear, previous Asher had only at most held Abigail's hand.

This women was really considerate of herself and she didn't love Asher.

So, she didn't let him touch her and only thought of him as her helper.

Alex smiled.

He was now going to do the same.

He was going to make Abigail fall for him, while making it clear to her that he was only using her.

Even if it was for his mother's treatment.

He didn't care about these properties.

Even Asher's mother could be healed easily. He just needed to make her his women. She will turn an immortal then!

Alex was doing all this to trap Abigail. Who was going to be his biggest card in taking control of Government.

While thinking so, Alex went back to his house and fell asleep.

In the morning he was woken up as someone knocked on his doors.

Asher's mother, Luna as well woke up as she heard the sound.

" Someone has come? " Luna asked anxiously.

Alex knew that she was afraid that her husband had returned.

So, he reassured, " It must be Naffurty. "

" Yes... " Asher's mother sighed.

Alex woke up and opened the door.

He wasn't surprised to see Abigail standing there in beautiful clothing and slight make up.

" Ash? Who is it? " Asher's mother asked.

" Mother, it's... It's just our nei-" Before Alex could complete his words Abigail forcefully entered the room.

Just from this small exchange Alex found out how strong physically she was.

He wasn't match at all.

" It's me. Nice to meet you. I'm Asher's wife and your daughter-in-law, " Abigail cheerfully introduced herself and courtesized.

And...

Just in few minutes, Luna and Abigail became very close.

Asher's mother was happy for her son.

And seeing that such a beautiful women like Abigail was her daughter-in-law she couldn't help but feel glad.

She treated Abigail as her own daughter.

Alex sighed and went to wash up.

When he was back in half an hour with his unform on, Abigail asked, " Where are you going Ash? "

She seemed to have stopped calling him Asher.

" I'm going for the job, " Alex said.

" Don't worry. I contacted your team leader and told her that you're not coming today, " Abigail smiled.

" Huh? Why? " Alex asked.

" You forgot? You're coming with me today, " Abigail pouted cutely.

" Ash, you should spend more time with Abigail. I won't like it, if you ignored my daughter, " Luna reprimanded.

" Yes mother... I'll go with her, " Alex sighed.

" You planned to ditch me all along, hmph! Only my mother-in-law is mine, " Abigail pouted seeing Alex's unwilling expression.

Alex also sat down besides his mother and heard them talking.

He felt calm as he sat there.

Abigail could notice that right now, Asher was really different from the normal one.

She could easily spot that it was all because of his mother.

After half an hour more, suddenly the someone else came.

It was none other than Naffurty who had returned after doing her work as the leader of Valhalla gang.

Abigail was surprised seeing this little girl, but she could for a moment subconsciously feel a threatening aura from her.

" Ash, who is she? " Abigail asked.

Alex made a complicated expression as he heard her question.

But, Naffurty answered for him, " I'm his friend. I live nearby. "

" You live here...? " Abigail sounded doubtful.. The main reason was because, Naffurty didn't look like someone who will come from a place like this. Her cute appearance was too out of place for this run down area.

She had a weird sense of aura, which made her look formidable.

And also she was very beautiful.

" Yes. I live here. Is there something wrong with that? " Naffurty asked.

Alex also frowned making Abigail feel that her question was wrong.

" I didn't mean that. It's just... " Abigail couldn't find words.

But, her mother-in-law laughed, " I know what you're thinking. Naffurty is my son's friend's daughter. She comes here to help me when Ash is not around. She is a good child. "

Hearing Asher's mother's words, Abigail calmed down. She easily believed Luna.

She was doubtful if Asher had some other relationship with this girl.

" Mother, I think we should leave now. We will be back in evening, " Abigail said to Asher's mother.

" Ah. Okay, " Luna nodded fondly.

Her face was much more brighter than yesterday.

She was truly happy for her son.

As soon as Alex and Abigail got out.

Alex said, " I don't want to come with you. I didn't sign up for that. "

" Aw. You're so awful. What if I was attacked. I need a man to protect me, " Abigail made a pitiful expression.

But, just then her eyes narrowed.

She held Alex's hand and quickly dodged to the side.

" What's the meaning of this?! " She asked to the perprator, was none other than Naffurty.

Alex as well was surprised, as he hadn't given Naffurty any orders to attack Abigail.

But, Naffurty ignored Abigail's words as she went near Alex and hugged him in front of Abigail.

" Nothing. I just wanted to mark my territory, " Naffurty smiled sweetly as she hugged Alex.

She was small, so she looked cute as her head only went upto Alex's chest.

" You! Get away from him or you'll regret it, " Abigail said, she knew that her sense of crisis was true.

This girl had some relationship with her husband!

" I don't think so. After all Asher is my man, " Naffurty said with a smirk as she pulled Alex's face towards her and quickly pecked his lips.

Abigail now couldn't stop herself, as she wanted to plummet this bitch.

But, Alex stopped her.

" Stop. People are looking. Let's talk somewhere else, " Alex said.

" No. I am going to kill her here! " Abigail said with cold snort.

" Let me see what you can do, " Naffurty as well said with a wink.

But, Alex had to stop them again.

If Abigail and Naffurty fought...

Naffurty will be the one to loose, even though she had experience.

" Naffurty. Stop doing this. Otherwise our deal is canceled. Abigail here is an officer. She can provide my mother with protection and I won't need you, " Alex said to Naffurty.

Abigail felt proud as Alex said so, " He is right. I'm his legal wife. He doesn't need you...Wait!? Ash, tell me your exact relationship with this girl. "

Naffurty smirked at Abigail, but before that she glared at people who were looking at them.

All of those people quickly averted their eyes.

As they ran away.

Abigail was surprised seeing this.

" I'm the leader of Valhalla gang, my name is Naffurty. I'm also Asher's lover, right Asher? " She asked.

" No. You're not. You're just paying me back for the favour that you owed me. Now I don't need you. So, you can leave, " Alex said plainly.

" You! How can you say that? For you I brought my whole gang to this place and even settled down here. Because I thought we will get married and stay here forever, " Naffurty said as she made a pitiful expression.

" Shut up! I'm his wife. So, you're a criminal! I should report you, " Abigail said.

" Yes she is my wife, " Alex as well supported her, but he whispered, " Abigail you can't report her. "

Naffurty snorted, " Do you think I don't know? You're just sticking up to her because you want her money right? Don't worry. I will earn enough money to help you. "

" Ah. Really? " Alex sounded convinced and looked happy.

" Wait. Wait. Wait. What's with that look? You're believing this girl? " Abigail asked seeing Alex's 180° change in attitude at Naffurty.

" No. Not exactly. But... She has money Abigail. What if the money I get from selling your properties isn't enough, " Alex said.

" You! Are you an idiot? I'm giving you whole of the Adkins family properties. You think they won't be enough? " Abigail asked.

" No... I was talking... Just in case... " Alex shrugged.

" You shouldn't force him. He clearly has feelings for me. And we have even gone to next step, " Naffurty said slowly as she stuck up her chest proudly.

" What!? " Abigail was stunned.

Alex was also surprised, but he quickly said, " It was an accident! " He defended himself like a veteran.

" What kind of accident?! " Abigail was furious.

Presence of Naffurty was already a thorn, but now she found out that she even had sex with her husband.

" Well. Few months ago. I met Naffurty. She was running away injured from someone. So, I saved her as she looked beautiful. I thought she was a daughter of some rich family. I was going to ask for ransom to let her go, " Alex said casually.

" You sound like a trash when you say that, " Naffurty said, Abigail nodded.

" So, I saved her and when she woke up, she started clinging to me, " Alex ignored them and continued.

" It's because I fell in love with you. You saved me like a prince, " Naffurty said.

" Ah. Whatever. But, I found out that Naffurty was actually a gangster and not a Princess of some family. I was downcast, knowing that she had no money. So, I left her after helping her to the hospital, " Alex said.

"But, next day she appeared to my house and started clinging to me. "

" I somehow got rid of her. But, after that one day, she brought whole of her gang here and settled down here. "

" I felt that she had some worth. So I asked her to help me protect my mother as a return of favor... "

After Alex completed the story there was a moment of silence.

But, it was broken by Naffurty, " You forgot the part where we fucked. "
