After the phone call with Mr. Hiroshi, Nathan came back to Abigail\'s VIP ward. He just sent Ethan off as the young boy needed to go to school when Mr. Hiroshi called him.

Nathan quietly entered the VIP ward since Abigail was still sound asleep. He took a deep sigh while eyeing Abigail helplessly. Her wound bled last night because of Ethan. She endured it as she didn\'t want to interrupt Ethan or stop him from hugging her.

Abigail\'s body was still weak and she had to recuperate after getting shot by three bullets. Nathan chose to stay today and looked after her. This was the least he could do for her.

He let Axel deal with the company\'s matters today while the other members of the Syphiruz Mafia were busy with their new mission– launching a counterattack against the Red Dragon Mafia.

Nathan checked the time on his wristwatch. Abigail should take her medication now but she hadn\'t eaten her breakfast yet. Nathan was contemplating whether to wake her up or not.

But after careful consideration, Nathan had decided to disturb her peaceful sleep in order for her to eat her breakfast and take her medicine.

"Miss Abi... wake up." Nathan gently tapped Abigail\'s shoulders.

Abigail groaned inwardly before slowly opening her eyes. She blinked her eyes when Nathan\'s gorgeous face greeted her sight first thing this morning.

Abigail yawned and rubbed her eyes, thinking that she was just dreaming. Then she heard Nathan\'s voice once again.

"You have to wash your face, brush your teeth and eat your breakfast," Nathan said in his usual commanding tone.

Abigail\'s eyebrows twitched into a deep frown. Her sleepiness went away in an instant because of Nathan\'s bossy tone.

She snapped her eyes open and glared at Nathan. "Can\'t you speak more tenderly when talking to me? Why are you bossing me around with my personal things to do?" Abigail complained. But she subconsciously covered her face using both hands to hide from Nathan\'s view.

She had just woken up and her appearance was truly a great mess. She felt like she was unpresentable right now to face Nathan.

Nathan just slid his arm under her back and helped her to sit up. Before she could stop him, Nathan already put the foldable table in front of her and fixed it. Then he placed a bowl with warm water on the top of that table.

Abigail\'s eyes just followed his every movement, wondering what Nathan was trying to do. To her surprise, Nathan dipped a clean towel into the bowl of water, squeezed it, and used it to wipe her face.

Abigail froze in her spot, startled by Nathan\'s strange action. He was wiping and cleaning her face using the towel! Abigail\'s cheeks turned scarlet red almost immediately. Nathan was making her more embarrassed by doing this.

\'What had gotten into him?\' Abigail asked herself in puzzlement.

Before she could complain, Nathan was done wiping her face clean. Then he took a brush and put toothpaste on its surface.

"Open your mouth and I will brush your teeth," Nathan emotionlessly said.

Abigail: "..."

Abigail didn\'t move. She just eyed him with utter shock and disbelief. She was completely at a loss for words.

Aware of the strange look Abigail was giving him, Nathan spoke up once again. "I\'m doing this because you can\'t move your right hand. Now, open your mouth. Don\'t worry, I\'ll be gentle..." Nathan paused for a moment, trying his best to hide the faint smile that was threatening to appear on his face.

When Abigail didn\'t move, Nathan taunted her by saying, "Perhaps... Do you want to eat your breakfast without brushing your teeth?"

Abigail shot him a cold sharp glare before obediently parted her lips. Nathan pursed his lips, concealing his smile. Then he started brushing her teeth as if she was a child.

When he was done, he handed a glass of water over her. "You can gurgle here. And just spit the water in this bowl. I will just get your food."

Abigail felt so uncomfortable because she was not used to being treated like this by Nathan. She thought Nathan would confront her once again. But surprisingly, he never brought up the topic of Phantom\'s Assassin Guild.

Abigail gurgled and cleaned her throat while Nathan prepared her breakfast. He kept talking to her while Abigail remained tight-lipped as she was silently observing him.

"By the way, Mr. Hiroshi just called me a while ago. He was looking for you. He wanted us to visit him... but I told him that you couldn\'t go out as of now."

Abigail\'s expression softened at the mention of Mr. Hiroshi\'s name. "I think... he wants to make a business deal with you! Go and visit him as soon as possible!"

"I can\'t. I can\'t go there unless you are with me," Nathan nonchalantly said as he was inching closer to her.

He removed the bowl of water and replaced it with a tray of food. On the table, the following menus were served: chicken soup, omelette, toasted bread, rice, and milk.

"How can I–" Abigail\'s words were cut off by Nathan.

"I\'ll feed you."

Abigail\'s jaw dropped. She didn\'t expect that Nathan would act so generous and kind towards her. She felt like another person was in front of her, not Nathan.

Nathan brought the spoon closer to her mouth after scooping a soup. Abigail just stared at him for a moment but Nathan motioned her to open her mouth.

"You need to eat this and drink your medicine," Nathan said.

Abigail could no longer stay silent. "Why are you doing this?"

"Starting today... I\'m going to take care of you," Nathan responded matter-of-factly. "Now, eat this..."

Abigail was about to refuse when Nathan touched her chin, urging her to open her mouth. Unable to resist, Abigail obeyed him.

\'Good girl,\' Nathan thought to himself, smiling inwardly.

Nathan began feeding her and suddenly a surprised visitor arrived, witnessing this scene. Nathan and Abigail were so preoccupied with what they were doing that they didn\'t notice Mr. Hiroshi knocked on the door a while ago.

\'Hmm. So this man knows how to take good care of his woman.\' Mr. Hiroshi felt so glad to see Nathan exerting some effort to take care of Abigail. His impression of him might change if he continued doing this to Abigail.

"Ahem. Ahem." Mr. Hiroshi cleared his throat to make his presence known to Abigail and Nathan.

Both Nathan and Abigail turned in the direction of that voice, only to be surprised after seeing Mr. Hiroshi standing by the door.

"Mr. Hiroshi?"

Abigail mumbled his name in disbelief while Nathan just looked at him with an indescribable expression.

Mr. Hiroshi was holding two baskets. One basket contained assorted fruits while the other one contained beautiful flowers.

After learning that Abigail was in the hospital, Mr. Hiroshi left the EDSJ Five Star Hotel to visit her. He ordered Kazuki to investigate what happened and find the culprit. He intended to help Nathan in catching the hitman.

And if it was proven that the Red Dragon Mafia was responsible for the shooting incident, Mr. Hiroshi would certainly change his mind about making negotiations with that Mafia Organization.

"Please come in," Nathan welcomed the old man.

Mr. Hiroshi just bobbed his head and approached the two. He put down the two baskets on the bedside table. And he walked closer to Abigail.

"Poor child. Who did this to you? Do you want me to punish them for you?" Mr. Hiroshi\'s expression softened as he spoke to Abigail.

Abigail smiled at him. She appreciated his genuine concern for her. He made an effort to visit her today even though they had just met each other a few days ago.

"Thank you for coming today, Mr. Hiroshi. I know you are a very busy man. But still, you came here to see me." Abigail expressed her gratitude towards the old man.

"I\'ve missed you, young lady." Mr. Hiroshi said it filially but Nathan frowned deeply, unhappy about what he had just heard.

Meanwhile, Abigail let out a soft giggle. She didn\'t expect that this old man had grown quite fond of her in just a short period. But she had to admit that she also felt the same thing. The feelings were mutual. She was fond of this old man as well.

"Since this man refused to bring you to me, I decided to come here. Furthermore, I was so worried after hearing the bad news so I rushed to this hospital to check on you." Mr. Hiroshi added.

Nathan darted his gaze back and forth between Abigail and Mr. Hiroshi. He felt like he was being ignored by both and his presence had already been forgotten.

"Cough! Cough!" Nathan cleared his throat to tell them that he was there.

Mr. Hiroshi just raised his eyebrow and asked him. "Have you caught the culprit or not? Do you want me to do this task? I can mobilize my men. But in exchange, you should allow Abigail to go with me once I invite her to come and visit my country."

Nathan was taken aback for a moment. \'Why do I feel like Mr. Hiroshi wants to steal Abigail from me?\'

Nathan eyed the old man suspiciously while pursing his lips. At this moment, he failed to hide his true emotions. It looked like he was against Mr. Hiroshi\'s ideas.

His dark expression didn\'t escape from Mr. Hiroshi\'s observant eyes. "Tsk, Tsk, Tsk. You have a possessive man here, Miss Abi."

Abigail: "???"
