Abigail was at a loss for words. She didn\'t know if Nathan meant those words or if he was just pretending. If he did pretend then he was good at acting as well. She almost believed him as if Nathan had feelings for her and he didn\'t want to get separated from her.

\'He can be a good actor!\' Abigail was praising him inwardly as she tried to calm her beating heart.

On the other hand, Mr. Hiroshi was amused by Nathan\'s answer. He didn\'t expect that he looked very possessive of Abigail. He thought Nathan wouldn\'t care even if Abigail would be separated from him since he hadn\'t gotten over his ex yet.

"Hmm. I understand. I\'m just joking. Don\'t take it seriously, Mr. Sparks." Mr. Hiroshi glanced at Abigail meaningfully, winking at her. It seemed like Mr. Hiroshi was testing Nathan and his feelings towards Abigail.

Abigail just smiled awkwardly before telling the two men to start eating. She was the only one digging in. The two kept talking to each other.

The three enjoyed their meal. They finished their breakfast after thirty minutes. Abigail had her fill. She was so full that she didn\'t want to leave the place just yet.

While Abigail and Mr. Hiroshi were both taking a short nap, Nathan went to the counter, paying for their bills. Nathan wondered how he would bring up the topic of making a business deal with Mr. Hiroshi.

\'Abigail said a lot of things to him. I don\'t know if what she said would affect my reputation and image in Mr. Hiroshi\'s eyes. Sigh, I didn\'t expect that Abigail would ruin my plan.\' Nathan shook his head helplessly, rubbing the space between his brows.

Based on Mr. Hiroshi\'s words, he could conclude that the old man was seeing him as a bad boyfriend who was hurting his current girlfriend because of his ex. This was Nathan\'s image which Abigail created after talking to Mr. Hiroshi. Because of this, Nathan was hesitating to talk to Mr. Hiroshi about a business deal.

Nathan had just finished paying their bills when Axel contacted him. They were outside the resto, serving as a lookout.

"Sir, we have a problem," Axel informed Nathan as soon as the call got connected.

"What is it?" Nathan said in a calm voice.

"The members of Sawada Clan just arrived... three sedan cars! They are all armed. Should we stop them, sir?" Axel sought Nathan\'s permission.

Nathan frowned, still thinking. He tossed a look at Mr. Hihorshi. "No need. Don\'t get involved. Just observe the situation first."

Nathan wanted to let Mr. Hiroshi deal with this situation. He wondered if he would stop his men personally once they appeared in front of them. He could see that Mr. Hiroshi looked so fond of Abigail.

Fifteen seconds later, several men in black entered the resto with hurried steps. The group caught the attention of other customers inside the place.

They could feel the urgency in the movement of those men as they searched for their clan leader. Abigail and Mr. Hiroshi were still talking when the group of men approached their table.

They were about to use their guns and pointed them at Abigail when they met Mr. Hiroshi\'s sharp gaze. Their clan leader just shook his head once and they understood what he meant.

Mr. Hiroshi was telling them to back off. Without saying a word, Mr. Hiroshi\'s underlings quietly retreated, leaving the place.

Abigail noticed the change in expression of Mr. Hiroshi so she turned around only to see the familiar group of men of black, leaving the resto.

\'Are they Mr. Hiroshi\'s men? Hmm... they had been looking for their Boss!\' A playful smile curled up as she watched them. She could tell that Mr. Hiroshi was a man with a great background. She just couldn\'t remember if she had an encounter with him as Phantomflake.

But Mr. Hiroshi stayed abroad and stopped their operation from the underground world for several years. He came back after secretly strengthening his clan.

\'Or perhaps, he is just purely a businessman?\' But Abigail had some doubts. Because Mr. Hiroshi\'s men looked like a group of syndicates, judging by their vibes and appearances.

When the members of the Sawada Clan went out, Nathan joined Abigail and Mr. Hiroshi. "Shall we go?" Nathan asked the two.

The members of Sawada Clan waited outside, wondering what their Clan Leader was planning to do. One of them already reported to Kazuki about Mr. Hiroshi\'s whereabouts. He was safe and sound.

"Sure, let\'s go back. I still have someone to meet this afternoon." Mr. Hiroshi mumbled. He was referring to the Red Dragon Mafia.

Nathan contemplated for a moment. He wanted to sabotage this meet-up. He couldn\'t let Mr. Hiroshi seal a deal with the Red Dragon Mafia.

But he didn\'t know how he would start his negotiation with him. The timing felt off. He could blame this on Abigail.

"Mr. Hiroshi, please don\'t forget about what we talked about a while ago. Please reconsider it and let us know your decision," Abigail reminded Mr. Hiroshi.

The old man just smiled at her and nodded his head in agreement. "Yes. I will think about it, young lady."

Nathan darted his gaze back and forth between Abigail and Mr. Hiroshi. He didn\'t have any ideas about what they were talking about. He couldn\'t relate to them.

\'Never mind! I will just ask Abigail once we arrive at the hotel.\' Nathan made a mental note.

"Young Lady... can we continue our tour next time... and be my tour guide?" Mr. Hiroshi added.

He wanted to bond more with this young lady. Abigail somehow reminded him of his missing daughter. He wished to find her and spend more time with her. But for now, being with Abigail gave him a feeling of joy and satisfaction. She was easy to talk to and she was frank and open.

Abigail didn\'t respond right away as she glanced at Nathan, asking for his permission. "What do you say, sweetheart?"

Nathan just blinked his eyes, not expecting Abigail to consult him about this. Furthermore, she even called him \'Sweetheart!\'

Unknowingly, Nathan bobbed his head absentmindedly, agreeing to both Abigail and Mr. Hiroshi without a second thought.
