Chapter 278 Marriage Certificate
Ste held Abraham tightly. “Abraham, I still have something to tell <b>you</b>,”
“What is it?”
“I didn’t take the pills.”
“What pills! Didn’t I tell the servants to watch you take them?”
He was talking about the medicine for her injury. Either he fed it to her himself, or, when he wasn’t around, the servants supervised her.
The moment Ste heard that, she realized he hadn’t understood what she meant.
But she was a little embarrassed too, I mean those pills.”
Hearing the shy tone in her voice, Abraham <b>finally </b>understood.
“Morning–after pills?”
Ste buried her face against his chest even tighter <b>and </b>nodded. “Yeah.”
Abraham said calmly. You don’t need them.”
Ste blinked. “What?”
“I’ll <b>have </b>someone print out the marriage certificate tomorrow. We can hold the wedding once we’re back in Falvaria. How does that sound?”
In any case, he wouldn’t let her get pregnant before marriage.
Ste’s face shot up from his chest. “Abraham, are you serious?”
Marriage certificate?
The moment she heard those words, her heart skipped hard.
All these years, she had imagined it countless times–marrying him, holding that piece of paper with his name beside hers. But she never dared to say it <b>aloud</b>. She had buried that wish deep in her heart.
She had never realized that the thing she longed for the most could be solved with just one sentence from Abraham.
That secret she’d hidden for years had just been exposed.
“Are you proposing to me right <b>now</b>?” Ste mumbled.
Abraham replied, “Not exactly. But we’ll get the marriage certificate first. After that, you’ll have anything you want.”
Whatever a girl should have, he’d make <b>sure </b>she had it all
Ste was <b>moved</b>. She <b>hugged </b>his lean waist, rubbing her cheek against his chest.
Abraham, I’ve been so sad before.”
All those years hiding her feelings had been painful. But now, with just one sentence, he made it all go away.
Abraham asked gently, “Oh? What were <b>you </b>so sad about?”
He was clearly teasing her, <b>with </b><b>a </b>smile in his voice.
He knew how she felt, and he had feelings <b>for </b>her too.
<b>Abraham </b>caught her mischievous linle hand. “How old were you back then?”
She was just a young girl, in that confusing stage of growing up, <b>and </b>no one could say how long a teenage crush wouldst.
Ste’s face turned red.
Abraham cupped her face and kissed her. “You’ve only just grown up. And you’re questioning me about the past?”
Ste grumbled and struggled. In the midst of it, the box Abraham had been holding fell to the floor.
Ste <b>nced </b>down. “You dropped it.”
Abraham chuckled. “Star, do you want me to use it?”
Ste was speechless. Is it really okay to ask that kind of question so casually!
Fluste
Flustered and not knowing what to say, she just hugged his waist tighter and hid in his arms.
Just then, Abel walked in. He had just stepped into the hallway when he saw Abraham holding Ste and a certain box lying
on the floor beside them.
Abel was left momentarily stunned.
His brain practically exploded. He reacted fast, turned, and immediately walked down another hallway.
But Ste had already seen him. She pinched Abraham’s <b>waist</b>. “Abel.”
Abraham turned around and saw that Abel had already left
1 told you.” Abraham said, “no <b>need </b>to hide.”
Ste protested, “Still<b>, </b>we can’t <b>do </b>this in front of everyone.”
There were so many
so <b>many </b>eyes <b>around</b>.
Abraham let out a lowugh, then scooped her up and carried her straight back to the room.
When he <b>leaned </b>over her, Ste pushed him back. “That thing’s still in the living room<b>.” </b>
What if someone sees it?
Abraham replied, “We can’t use it
“What?”
“It’s the wrong size.
Ste’s face <b>flushed </b>hard again. <b>She </b>quickly tried to pull the nket over herself, but Abraham didn’t give her the chance.
He held her face gently and asked, “Still hurt?
“Not too much today,” Ste whispered.
Eddie’s medicine actually worked pretty well.
Abraham smiled.
Seeing his smile, Ste quickly added, “But I’m still injured. I am still hurt.”
