บท 420: My everything

Tears began to flow from Abi's eyes. She was in a trance, utterly surprised.

Seeing that tears were already flowing down Abigail's face, Alex's gaze softened and he slowly cupped her face and wiped the tears from her eyes with his thumbs.

"Shh… don't cry anymore, Abigail. Please," he begged. He pulled her into his embrace and kissed her forehead, as Abi sobbed in his chest.

"T-this means you're finally alright, right? Alex?" she asked him, looking up.

Alex nodded, flashing a gentle smile at her. "Yes," he answered, kissing her eyes this time. "You did well, wife."

His words were like soothing music. This single piece of amazing news was more than enough to erase all the confusion and fear she had felt last night. She couldn't believe it. She couldn't describe how happy and relieved she felt.

"Oh god, Alex… I'm so happy… I'm so glad…" she cried, hugging him tightly.

"So you shouldn't be crying now, Abigail."
