Chapter 1821 A Good Match
I still have to rewire Vinson’s beliefs. I can’t let him develop a fear over the matter of childbirth, but how should I go about doing that? Arielle massaged her temples. Let me think about it.
Meanwhile, on the cruise ship, Abigail was staring at Anna, who was standing on the deck. As the thought of the news delivered by the person sent to spy on Anna last night came into her mind, her gaze darkened. She never expected that Anna would be sleeping with Gaspar. When did they get together?
She cast a look at Micah, who was beside her. I know that he’s oblivious to this, but will he agree to let Anna marry Gaspar?
In actuality, she was against it, knowing that Gaspar was living on a knife edge like Micah. Although she was Anna’s stepmother, she was nonetheless concerned for the girl’s wellbeing. Unlike her, who had a good life but was terrified every time Micah left the house, she wanted her stepdaughter to live blissfully for the rest of her days.
“Micah, don’t you think the two of them make a good match? They look great together and have similar social statuses.” As she spoke, Abigail turned her attention to Gaspar and Anna, who were taking in the sea breeze on the deck. She wanted to hear Micah’s thoughts about it.
Micah was stunned when he heard Abigail’s words. He had known Gaspar for ten years and had never once considered marrying his daughter to him.
“What do you mean they look great together and have similar social statuses?” Micah immediately silenced Abigail sharply, “Don’t have such twisted thoughts. Gaspar can’t give Anna a stable life.”
He only wanted his daughter to live a happy life.
Only after hearing Micah’s disapproval did Abigail feel relieved. As long as Micah objected to it, Anna will ultimately have to listen to him no matter how reluctant she is.
However, when she heard the tone in his voice and the attitude he showed her, she immediately felt aggrieved. Her eyes instantly turned red, and tears welled up within them.
Seeing that, Micah could not help feeling a little distressed.
He quickly reached out and drew Abigail into his arms before tenderly wiping away her tears. “Why are you crying?”
“I don’t want to talk to you anymore. I can’t believe you snapped at me.” Abigail tried to push Micah’s arm away as she spoke, but he held her tightly in his embrace. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. “I was wrong. I shouldn’t have done that,” he said softly.
Micah continued coaxing her. Although he had many women, Abigail was the only one he truly loved. He merely had a familial fondness for even Anna’s mother.
“Actually, I said it deliberately to find out what you thought of the two of them together.” Abigail’s anger vanished as soon as Micah humbled himself to console her. She leaned into his arms while looking at Anna and Gaspar in front of her. “Don’t you think they’re being a little too intimate with one another?” she whispered.
As her words fell, Micah happened to look toward them, just in time to see Gaspar giving Anna an affectionate look as he helped her brush her hair away from her forehead. He tightened his hold on Abigail and said in a low voice, “They do seem a little too intimate.”
He stared at the two people before him before escorting Abigail back to the cabin with his arm around her. While doing so, he discreetly decided to find an opportunity to ask them what they thought of one another. If they’re attracted to one another, I must break it off as soon as possible.
Anna was unaware of her father’s thoughts. At that moment, she was looking at Gaspar, smiling sweetly.
