Chapter 153

Emma was currently splayed on the ground in a stark-naked state. As for Jonathan, he also didn't haveclothes on as he sat up in bed with a dazed and sleepy look.

As soon as the door opened up from the outside, the two of them lifted their heads slowly and thecrowd in front of the door made them come to their senses immediately. Emma quickly grabbed theblanket on the bed as she gave out a loud scream. Meanwhile, Jonathan was slightly flustered uponseeing Abigail at the door, and he instinctively held to the blanket too.

At that moment, the two of them fought each other for possession of the blanket.

"Jonathan, hand me the blanket!" Emma was close to tears.

However, there was a look of frustration and anger that flashed across Jonathan's face. This dumbwoman! She knew that Abigail would come today but she still chose to seduce me! The worst thing isthat we fell asleep and she didn't even wake me up! Jonathan angrily grabbed the blanket towardhimself.

At that point, Emma fell to the side and bumped into the side of the bed from his forceful move. Therewas a loud 'bang' and even Abigail winced and felt that it must be quite painful.

Meanwhile, Greg whistled wickedly and asked, "Jonathan, you're enjoying yourself here, huh? It's thedaytime and you're not spending your time upgrading yourself but here you are, living a profligatelifestyle! What's going on? Is business quite good recently?"

His barbed comments made Jonathan glower at that moment.

The Fraser Family's collaboration with the Buckley Group had recently been terminated and he wasquite sure that Greg, who was standing in front of him right now, was well aware.

However, Jonathan was currently stark naked so didn't feel confident speaking up at that moment. Inthe end, he suppressed his temper to the point that his face turned purple. He glared furiously at Emmaand there was a vicious look that flashed across his eyes.

Meanwhile, Sasha hurried forward with a pained look on her face. She took off her jacket to put it onEmma so that at the very least, the latter wasn't stark naked. Subsequently, she turned to Jonathanwith a displeased look. "Jonathan, Emma's a female after all, so how can you do that to her?!"

Jonathan was already simmering with anger as the main purpose for him coming here today wasbecause of Abigail. Now that he was caught with his pants down in Emma's bed then obviously, Abigailwasn't going to have a good impression on him.

With this on his mind, he ignored Sasha and quickly turned to say to Abigail, "Abbie, things are notwhat it looks like. Emma was the one who seduced me and I was not in the right state of mind earlier,so I somehow ended up in bed with her."

"Jonathan Fraser!" At that point, Emma trembled with anger.

She knew that he had his sights set on Abigail, but she was still formally known as his fiancée. Howcan he treat me like that?!

Meanwhile, Sasha's expression turned ugly too.

"Jonathan, you must be confused. Emma's your fiancée, so why are you explaining yourself to Abigail?Don't tell me that you're still involved with Abigail? What sort of shameless things have you guys beendoing?"

Sasha had reverted into a full-on protective mode, but someone else found her words quite rude.

"Mrs. Kain, you'd better watch your words. You can't seem to stop mentioning Abigail's name. She is, infact, my girlfriend, and she doesn't have the tendency to go back to her ex-boyfriend. Besides, yourwords seem to be implying that Abbie has cheated on me?"

He spoke in a cold tone that sounded terrifying to Sasha, and she nearly slumped to the ground infright.

How did I forget that the Devil's still around!

Philip's eyebrows remained furrowed from the moment he stepped foot into the room and as soon asJonathan said those words, he clearly knew what Jonathan meant.

After all, they were both males and Philip could clearly tell what Jonathan's expression was.

At that moment, there was a cold look in Philip's eyes.

Does Jonathan think that he can do as he pleases in our home?!

As soon as Philip thought of that, he disregarded Emma's embarrassing state and walked forward topull off Sasha's jacket that was draped over the former. At the same time, he yanked Jonathan'sblanket off too, and then he took out his cell phone to snap a few photos of the two.

"Dad, what are you doing?!" At that point, Emma was in a frenzy. Why is Dad doing such a randomthing?!

Jonathan's expression suddenly darkened.

"Mr. Kain, what do you mean by all this?"

However, Philip coldly responded, "What do I mean by this?! You're my daughter's fiancé and everyonein Harrion knows about this. What are you trying to do right now?! Do you want to break off theengagement? Do you really think that you can do whatever you want for our family? You've beeninvolved with my daughter for the past five years and now you're planning to go after my older daughtertoo?! Jonathan, I'm warning you right now that you'd better stop all this nonsense and treat Emmaproperly. Otherwise, don't blame me for ruining things for you. If I actually choose to pursue thissituation, I can tell you right now that the Kains can also be a formidable opponent to your family too."

He said all of this very confidently and for a moment, Abigail was caught by surprise too. Philip's foundanother backer recently? I can't believe that he actually dares to speak so rudely to Jonathan.

Meanwhile, Greg curved his lips into a slightly sarcastic smile. Philip's such a cunning old fox.

Just then, Greg wrapped his arms around Abigail's shoulders and conveniently blocked her view sothat she was spared from the indecent scene in front of them.

"Let's go. Let's take a look outside. The air here is quite polluted. Your respiratory system isn't thatgreat, so you should take care not to catch an infection from the bugs here."

Greg was always quite good with his snide remarks and he had actually described Emma andJonathan as infectious bugs. At that point, the duo in question nearly leaped up in anger, but Greg hadan exalted status so they could merely choose to suffer everything silently.

Just then, Sasha was elated to see Philip standing up for Emma.

This was the first time ever that Philip had taken the initiative to stand up for his daughter. Even if hemight only have done that for the Kain Family's sake, she was still quite pleased with the things thatPhilip did this time.

Meanwhile, Jonathan's expression turned thunderous but unfortunately for him, Greg was still aroundand Philip didn't seem as if he was about to let Jonathan off the hook. Hence, Jonathan had no choicebut to forget about breaking off the engagement with Emma temporarily.

Jonathan looked on as Greg walked out of the room with his arms wrapped around Abigail. At thatpoint, he was wildly jealous.

Abigail's mine! She belongs to me! Someday, I'll definitely take possession of her for myself and have ago with her!

Abigail was steered out of the room by Greg and she finally heaved a deep sigh before saying, "Weshouldn't have come back tonight. I need some eye drops once we get home."

Meanwhile, the smile on Greg's face widened. Why is my woman so adorable?

"Sure! I'll buy you the most expensive eye drops if you can't replace any."

"You're so annoying!"

Abigail lifted her elbow and used it to nudge him in the stomach.

As for Greg, he didn't dodge her attack. After all, she kept control of her strength and clearly, it wasn'tmeant to hurt at all. It was just playful banter between a couple and they were just having some fun.

After both of them had gone downstairs, Philip followed them too.

He looked at Abigail and Greg's interaction with each other, and Philip noticed the smile on Abigail'sface that he had never seen at all. At that point, he was slightly stunned by that.

Philip knew that she wasn't happy staying here all these years but had no intention of doing anythingabout it. After all, that woman had abandoned her daughter after giving birth to her, so why should he

raise Abigail by himself?

As such, he chose to ignore the mistreatment of Abigail by Sasha after the latter joined the family.However, as he saw Abigail's contented smile today, he felt as if he saw that woman again. She wasthe person whom he loved deeply and yet, she was also the woman who would never belong to him.

At that point, there was an inexplicable look that flashed across Philip's eyes and he quickly coughedand said, "Mr. Buckley, I'm sure that you've brought Abigail back here today because you've gotsomething to discuss with me, right?"

Philip wasn't dumb. Although he was a selfish person, undeniably, the Kains had progressedtremendously over the years in Harrion. Even though there were some capital shortages in hiscompany, that was also because he was involved in a variety of industries and there were some slightcash flow issues there. However, he was widely respected in the business world for his ways.

Meanwhile, he had been quite aware of Abigail and Greg's actions lately, so there were some issuesthat he had to face and he knew that this was the time for it.

Greg remained silent but turned to look at Abigail. Evidently, this was a matter between Abigail andPhilip.

Abigail always hoped to be able to see Philip in a flustered state but unfortunately for her, he alwaysmaintained a cold, distant look. Even when he was around his family members such as Abigail, Sasha,and Emma, he never showed any sign of tenderness on his face at all.

This type of man was comparable to a block of ice. Furthermore, Abigail felt that this man here didn'teven have a heart.

Just then, Abigail sensed her path her thoughts had taken and she quickly dispelled those notions asshe calmly responded, "I've got something that I want to talk to you about in private."

"Come with me to the study room."

With that, Philip turned around instantly and headed toward the study room on the second floor.However, after taking two steps forward, he mentioned softly, "Come on along, Mr. Buckley."

Greg had intended to give Abigail and Philip some private time, and he would stay on to keep an eyeon Jonathan to see how much more trouble that brat could cause. Now that he heard Philip'ssuggestion, he couldn't help frowning. This old fogey is quite brave! How dare he order me around?

As for Abigail, she was slightly taken aback too. At that moment, Philip spoke. "There are some thingsthat I'll only reveal in front of Mr. Buckley. Otherwise, I won't speak. I know that you guys have foundout some information but unless you're the actual person involved, you wouldn't be able to get theactual details."

He had obviously targeted her directly on her weak spot. Does he actually know what we're here for?!Abigail was significantly stunned.

Meanwhile, Greg didn't react much at all.

Despite Philip's selfish side, logically speaking, he was indeed a well-seasoned businessman. He hadruthless moves and he reacted swiftly to everything. He was just like a viper and once he laid eyes onhis prey, most of them weren't able to get away.

In the past, Greg had never focused on Philip properly before. It was only after he had entered into arelationship with Abigail that he had secretly investigated Philip. He found out from there that this manwas truly quite a character to be able to get to his position today.

Abigail tried to say something, but Greg tightened his grip on her palm.

His palm felt quite dry and there was a slight warm sensation. Abigail's uneasy heart calmed downsignificantly at that.

He looked at her with a smile and asked, "What's wrong? Are you afraid that I'll discover your secret?It's too late because you're mine. From now on, I want to be involved in any secret of yours."

Unexpectedly, such a shameless man could actually make Abigail's heart pound and she smiled whilesaying, "You're incorrigible."

Greg didn't take it to heart and he merely smiled. It was as if being called incorrigible was the highestpraise of all.

Meanwhile, Philip looked at their sweet banter and he felt as if he was looking at that woman and thatman's loving moments, so he couldn't contain the sudden swell of anger in him.

"That's enough! Don't behave all lovey-dovey in front of me. If you make me upset, I might decide notto tell you what you're keen to replace out!"

After Philip said that, he turned around to leave and there was an unmistakable angered look on hisface, which caused Abigail to become dumbfounded. What's wrong with the old fogey?
