My Fair Stunner novel (Faye and Colin) novel Chapter 383

Chapter 383 What a Blessing

Abbot's heart pounded crazily at Rebecca's words.

The next second, Rebecca leaned forward and wrapped her arms around Abbot's neck with a mischievous smile, saying, "You're touched, aren't you?"

Abbot felt slightly itchy in his throat as he uttered, "No."

Rebecca said, "I don't buy it."

Abbot looked down at Rebecca. After a moment of silence, Abbot said in a husky voice, "You are drunk."

Rebecca smiled gently. When she was about to speak, Abbot's mobile phone rang in his pocket.

Abbot darted a glance at Rebecca and fished out his phone with a frown. Seeing it was from Colin, Abbot felt his brow twitch.

Rebecca tilted his head and looked at Abbot. She asked in confusion drunkenly, "Who is it?"

Abbot was guilty and upset. He pulled Rebecca's hands on his neck away and got off the car before picking up the call.

In the video call, Colin looked like he had just taken a shower; his bathrobe was loose on him, and his hair was still very wet.

Colin asked, "Are you home already?"

Abbot answered diffidently, "Yup."

Colin was silent for a few seconds before asking with his eyes narrowed, "Did you move?"

Abbot was absent-minded and said, "Hmm?"

Colin fetched a pack of cigarettes from the nightstand. He bit a cigarette in the corner of his lips but didn't light it. "The night view of the suburbs looks good," said Colin.

Abbot was subdued.

It got awkward as it was silent.

Colin bored into Abbot, who remained silent, and smiled with the cigarette in his mouth.

Abbot felt uncomfortable being stared at like that by Colin and coughed twice. "I suddenly have some errands to run here," said Abbot.

Colin uttered meaningfully, "Oh, really? I thought you tricked some drunken girl to get a.. room at some hotel there since you were worried about bumping into acquaintances in the city."

Abbot asked, "Am I that kind of person?"

Colin said, "Who knows? Cats hide their claws."

Abbot was about to retort. Suddenly, his assistant opened his mouth behind him, "Mr. Carter, the room for Ms. Black is ready."

Abbot bit his tongue

Colin teased, "Ms. Black?"

Abbot couldn't feel more awkward at the moment.

Abbot forced a smile and said, "It's not what you think."

Colin smiled faintly and uttered, "What was I thinking?"

Abbot gritted his teeth and brushed off Colin's question. He then turned to look at his assistant who was walking towards him and chided, "Help her in then. What's the point of telling me about that?"

His assistant was rendered speechless.

Abbot continued, "What are you waiting for? Help her in!"

The assistant uttered, "Got it, Mr. Carter."
