Then, he sipped his wine and told Abigail, "I heard that Eric is genuinely courting you. Aren't you going to consider it?" With these words, he effectively shredded Jake's misplaced self-confidence into pieces.

"Well, I'm in Pendorf, and he's in Capitalis. If I were to consider someone, it would be someone in Pendorf," Abigail replied. She appreciated Anthony for helping her. After all, she didn't enjoy engaging in trivial this, especially since she was still concerned about her grandmother's situation and had no interest in talking to them.

As she was about to leave, Jake grabbed her arm and murmured, "Abigail, I'm serious about marrying you. The moment I saw you, I felt we had a special connection. I have a good job, and after we're married, you can focus on designing and raising our children. My parents can also support you-" Before he could finish his sentence, s Abigail also stumbled as she was struggling out of his grip. Then, she fell into a warm embrace.

You don't need to pay him any attention. If he ever gets handsy with you again, just slap him. People like him won't listen to words," Sean commented as he looked at her. Abigail nodded in agreement.

Luna taunted, not m understanding the purse of this Anthony Nooked at at Jake with a cold expression. "Tonight's reunion is because our professor wanted to see Abigail.

"Don't try to act so high and mighty. No matter how much you help her tonight, she will never choose you since be a plan B to her!"

At that moment, Abigail grabbed a glass of wine and splashed it on Jake's face. "Anthony is my friend m You're just a hypocrite who likes to N use random words you picked up online.
