  Valeria opened the door and said, &quot;My husband is here!&quot; 
      Abbie's hair was still wet and she was surprised when she saw William. He smiled nonchalantly and said, &quot;Come down when you're ready, I'll head downstairs to prepare dinner.&quot; 
      Abbie looked away after seeing that William had gone downstairs and asked, &quot;Is your husband worried that I would sell you off? Why is he keeping an eye on you so closely?&quot; 
      &quot;Of course not. Abbie, he didn't come here alone, Michael is here too.&quot; Valeria knew that this would eventually be brought to light, hence there was no point in hiding it from Abbie. 
      &quot;It's fine, I can handle it. I wouldn't make a fool out William,&quot; Abbie promised. 
      Meanwhile, Michael was cooking up a piece of steak in the kitchen with an apron around his waist. William stared at him by the door and asked, &q

  Abbie was stunned for a moment and thought that she had misread. Her hand then subconsciously touched the tattoo to clarify what she had seen. 
      Michael's body stiffened at this and reached out to hold Abbie's hand while he turned around to face her slowly.
      His gaze on her was gentle, and this made Abbie's heartbeat sped up and flushed.
      &quot;Michael…&quot;
      With the call of his name, Michael leaned towards her without hesitation and pressed his lips against Abbie's while she blinked her eyes blankly. 
      She did not move or push him away but just stared at Michael as she was taken aback. Her head was clouded with uncontrollable thoughts and they were coming at her all at once.
      Moments she spent with Michael played through her mind like a movie, flashing through one after another. Abbie could not comprehend them all in that instant, so she could only cont

  Abbie and Valeria drove to the seaside villa. They were as excited as kids at Christmas when they arrived. 
      Abbie was already amazed as they entered the hallway of the villa with the food in their hands.
      Then, after she took a tour around the entire villa including the basement and balcony, she gave a thumbs-up and said, &quot;Oh! My! God! Oh, my f*cking God!&quot; 
      Valeria burst into laughter and said, &quot;Come on, let's go on a stroll along the beach. Then, we shall make ourselves a feast tonight.&quot; 
      Soon, they put on their slippers and went for a walk at the beach. The seawater sparkled in blue and green as the both of them dashed towards the ocean's embrace. Waves splashed onto them every few seconds, and they were entirely soaked within a few minutes.
      When they had used up all their energy, they laid on the beach with their faces towards the sky
