Chapter 277 A Hint
Ste’s mouth twitched. She looked at Eddie. At <b>this </b>moment, she had absolutely no idea what to say anymore..
Oh my, someone please save me.
“You’re a doctor, but you’re also a man. Even if you wanted to give us this, shouldn’t you have given it to Abraham?!”
Handing it to me directly? What the hell was Eddie thinking?
Ste could tell that he was just single because of his own problem. No wonder back in Falvaria, none of the girls wanted to <b>date </b>him.
He was good–looking, skilled in medicine. But his mouth and his emotional intelligence were the real problems!
Eddie said, “Give it to Abraham? Do you want him to skin me alive? Ste<b>, </b>don’t be ungrateful. I’m doing this for your sake.”
Uh… Ste mumbled awkwardly.
Eddie pressed, “What do you mean ‘uh? Are you really going to be blind to good intentions?”
Ste muttered. “Thank you. I mean, really, thank you.”
“No worries. We’ve known each other for years, and I watched you grow up. I’m just looking out for you,” Eddie replied
casually
Ste was speechless.
“Wait, did you take the morning–after pill?” he suddenly asked.
Ste was already struggling to process what he had just handed her. Now that Eddie mentioned the words “morning–after pill, her brainpletely shut down.
Her gaze turned nk as she stared at him.
Eddie asked again. “You didn’t take it?”
“L… No, I didn’t!” Ste blurted.
After she got injured, she’de straight back from Pluehville Hill and hadn’t even left the house since.
My luck can’t be that bad, right?
Eddie pped his <b>forehead</b>. “Crap. This is really bad”
Ste scoffed, “Who gets pregnant from just one time?”
“Plenty. As <b>long </b>as she’s fertile, one time is enough,” Eddie said.
Eddie’s <b>words </b>seriously gave her a headache. She honestly had no idea what to do with him.
“Get <b>what</b>?” Abraham’s voice suddenly <b>came </b><b>from </b>the staircase, low and tinged with displeasure.
Ste jumped and instinctively hid her hands <b>behind </b>her back. Eddie saw <b>Abraham </b>standing at the top of the stairs.
His mouth twitched. “I… I didn’t say anything!”
He dropped the words and ran off immediately.
Ste watched him flee, her mind goingpletely <b>nk</b>.
Abraham came <b>down </b><b>the </b><b>stairs </b>slowly and walked right up to her, holding out his hand. “<b>Give </b>it to me.”
“What? What do you want?” Ste asked nervously.
<b>Abraham </b>said <b>calmly</b>, “The thing you’re hiding behind your back”
At this moment, Ste felt like dying. Oh my, just strike me with lightning and turn me to ask already.
Abraham raised an eyebrow. “Star<b>?</b>”
Ste <b>let </b>out two dry chuckles. Her cheeks flushed red, and she felt extremely embarrassed.
She didn’t know if Abraham was going to skin Eddie aliveter, but she really wanted to do it herself.
When Ste didn’t move, Abraham pulled her into <b>his </b>arms with one quick tug. His arms were long<b>, </b>and he easily reached behind her <b>and </b>grabbed what she was holding
Ste tried to resist and held on tightly. “No, don’t look at it!“.
Ste
Her face scrunched uppletely.
Abraham chuckled softly and easily snatched it from her hands.
Ste buried her face straight into his chest.
Above her head came his lowugh. “Star, are you trying to give me a hint?”
I’m not… I wasn’t,” Ste muttered, clutching his waist tightly, too embarrassed to lift her head.
She cursed Eddie silently. May he never get a girlfriend for the rest of his life!
Abraham asked, “You weren’t? <b>Then </b>why did you buy <b>this</b>? Who brought it to you? Tessa?”
So he didn’t see the whole scene from the stairs?
Ste quickly shook her head. “No, no, definitely not. Eddie gave it to me.”
If Eddie wanted to be reckless, then don’t me her for selling <b>him </b>out!
It wasn’t her <b>fault</b>. In front of Abraham, she really couldn’t hold the line.
If she dared admit she was trying to hint at something, he would definitely carry her straight to the bedroom.
She was still recovering! Better to let Abraham take it out on Eddie <b>instead</b>.
The two of them were now <b>standing </b>very close. Ste could already feel certain changes in him.
As expected, when <b>Abraham </b>heard that Eddie was the one who gave it to her, his tone turned cold. “Eddie?”
“Yeah, it was <b>him</b>, Ste said <b>quickly</b>.
As for what else Eddie had said, Ste decided to leave that part out.
Byen if she <b>sold </b>him out, she didn’t want to go that far.
