The Seventh Miserable Bride novel Chapter 169

As they left the hospital, Sebastian Simons scolded her angrily, "Do you think your head is made of iron? Did I ask you to shield me from the bottle? You should have just stayed by the side and do nothing in such a dangerous situation."

"You were standing up for me. How could I just stand at the side and leave you in danger? Regardless, I have to thank you for today." she said.

Sebastian waved his hand, "You're welcome. I would still save you even if you were a stranger."

A trace of sadness flashed in Abigail's eyes. Sebastian was indirectly telling her that he was just saving her without any other implications. It was merely out of an instinct to do what was righteous.

"I'll give the 20 million back to you."

"You don't have to pay me back. Just treat it as a reward for giving the evidence to me," he said.

"I will definitely pay you back. I gave the evidence to you because of my love for you, but you didn't pay twenty million dollars for the same reason. I won't repay you if you are doing this because you still have feelings for me," she insisted.

Only love was immeasurable. Everything else had to be accounted clearly.

Sebastian shrugged his shoulders and said, "Just do whatever you want then."

He wouldn't lie and say that he still had her in his heart to avoid her repaying the 20 million dollars.

"Get in the car, I'll send you back," he offered.

This time, Abigail did not refuse and silently got into his car. The two of them were quiet along the way, and the car stopped at her apartment. She got off the car and asked him, "Would you like to go up and have a seat?"

Sebastian shook his head, "No, it's too late."

"Okay. Please be careful on your way back."

"Okay. You should also pay attention to your wound," he replied.

He started the engine and drove away. Five minutes later, he heard an unfamiliar ringtone coming from a phone. He looked down in confusion and saw that Abigail had left her phone in his car.

It was Abigail's aunt. Sebastian knew that Abigail had an aunt and he had seen her once before. He was hesitating whether he should pick up the call, but considering that he had broken up with Abigail, it would be a little strange for him to pick up her calls again. He hung up the phone, turned the car around and drove back.

When he returned to Abigail's apartment, he took her phone and knocked on the door, but nobody answered. Seeing that the door was not completely closed, he reached out to push the door open and called out softly, "Abigail, are you there?"

No one responded. He hesitated for a few seconds before stepping into the apartment and put the phone on the table.

He was about to leave when he bumped into Abigail. She asked in surprise, "Sebastian, didn't you leave earlier?"

He pointed to the phone, "You left your phone in my car. Your aunt called you just now. I was afraid that it was urgent, so I came to send it back."

Abigail patted her forehead, "It seems like my mind was in a mess today. I was never a forgetful person in the past."

She smiled embarrassedly, pointed to the couch in the living room and said, "Since you're here, have a drink before you go."

"It's alright. You should rest early."

Sebastian was going to leave, but Abigail pulled him down onto the couch. "Even if you want to keep a distance from me, you don't have to act so cold."

She ran to the refrigerator and said while pouring some fruit juice, "I went to throw the garbage just now. I was wondering why there was a car that looked like yours parked in front of my place when I came back."

Sebastian took the juice from her hand and drank it up. He had a fight and went to the hospital. He was indeed a little thirsty.

"Where did Ethan go? Why haven't I seen him lately?" he asked.

Abigail's eyes flashed, "He went to perform overseas."

"Aren't you planning to accept his love? He's more suitable for you than me." Sebastian said.

"Love is not just about compatibility. It's futile if I don't have any feelings for him," she answered. Sebastian nodded his head, "In that case, you tell him your thoughts clearly. Let him go earlier so that he could pursue his own happiness. He is the only son in my uncle's family."
