Chapter 181: Are They Friends?
Abigail felt her knees weaken in shock as she saw Sawyer standing there, directly looking at her.
’What!? Why is he here? Did Vincent tell him where I was meeting?’ Confusion washed over her, and she managed to smile while their eyes remained locked on each other.
"Sawyer, why did you come suddenly without calling me first? What’s wrong, my friend!?" Andy asked curiously.
He stood up from his seat, smiling as he approached Sawyer. However, Sawyer’s gaze was fixed solely on Abigail, and he completely ignored Andy, which shocked him.
’What the... Sawyer came not because of me but because of Abigail. Wait, do they know each other? How so?’
Andy felt his blood run cold as these thoughts raced through his mind. He saw Abigail looking at Sawyer with a gentle smile, enough to weaken his knees.
Andy Bennet was shocked, and he wasn’t alone. Abigail was taken aback when she heard Andy refer to Sawyer as "my friend."
’Oh my God! Andy Bennet called Sawyer my friend? Did they know each other?’ Abigail was astonished and dumbfounded at herself when she realized this. Her curious gaze remained locked on Sawyer. Her eyes silently hinted at him as if asking, "Sawyer, what brings you here?"
Nevertheless, as Abigail took in Sawyer’s presence, she felt warmth and became much more relaxed. Without consciously thinking about it, her feet moved closer to him, visibly in excitement.
"Sawyer, did Vincent tell you I’m here?" Abigail softly asked as he stood just a step away.
Instead of answering, Sawyer took Abigail’s hand and pulled her into his arms, surprising her. But she didn’t push him away; instead, she rested her head against his sturdy chest and wrapped her arms around his waist, feeling secure in his embrace.
