“Just afraid we won’t be able to sell it!” Abigail joked about herself.
Recently, her weight dropped to 143 pounds, but she hit a new plateau. Although she was 1.67 meters tall, 1.7 meters with shoes on, this weight was no longer too exaggeratedly fat. However, compared to slender, pretty girls, she was still a big chunk.
Thinking of this, Abigail felt a bit depressed.
Brandon let out a slight laugh. “Hmm, lately pork isn’t selling well.”
Abigail widened her eyes at him, slightly more awake. “You… are too much!”
“Hehehe.” Brandon looked at Abigail’s reaction, shaking with laughter causing his bathrobe to loosen considerably.
Kelvin saw this and quickly stepped forward to retrieve the signed document. “Second Young Master, I’ll go to the notarization office early tomorrow.”
“Hmm, and while you’re at it, take a trip to Midsummer and get in touch over there. Reassure my dear uncle.” Brandon stood up and gave a few more brief instructions. After he was done, he noticed Abigail yawning again, her head bobbing as she sat on the sofa. He reached out and let her head rest on his shoulder, softly saying, “Pullan, see them out.”
The two glanced at the sleepy Abigail and quietly left the study, with Pullan seeing them out of the estate.
Suddenly, only the two of them were left in the study.

Abigail groggily opened her eyes. “Is it over?”
Because drafting the contract took some time, it was already past midnight. Abigail couldn’t hold on anymore.
Ever since taking care of Teddy, Abigail’s life had become very regulated, following the little guy’s routine. But going to bed late last night and again tonight, she felt her head becoming sluggish.
“Yeah, let’s go rest too.” Brandon looked at the woman struggling to keep her eyes open. Thinking of how decisively she had signed the contract, his emotions became mixed. He half-embraced her, filled with affection and pity.
She was so good; he couldn’t understand how that bastard Jeffrey Foster could bear to let her obsess over him for years without responding. In the end, even using her?
But then he immediately felt grateful. If it weren’t for Jeffrey’s neglect, he probably wouldn’t have met her.
Brandon felt like all his usual habits had been broken since meeting this chubby girl. He sighed and kissed Abigail’s smooth forehead. “Let’s go.”
Abigail was really exhausted and didn’t have the energy to argue about the man’s earlier teasing. She muddled up, planning to go back to the nursery, thinking Teddy would wake up and look for her in the middle of the night. But she was forcibly dragged to the master bedroom by Brandon.
“Sleep. He eats both formula and breast milk now, with Aunt Claudia here; he won’t go hungry.” Brandon reassured, helping her onto the bed.
Abigail, incredibly tired, felt much more settled after hearing this. She lay down and fell asleep immediately, completely unaware she wasn’t in her own room.
Brandon looked at the chubby girl in his bed, already fair, looking even fairer against the black silk sheets. He smiled pleasantly. “And you said you wouldn’t be sold off? Silly.”
“Mmm…” The sleeping person mumbled, turned over, and fell into a deep sleep again.
Brandon shook his head with a silent laugh and lay down beside Abigail.
Abigail’s biological clock was very punctual. Without Teddy, she woke up at seven and was greeted by an enlarged handsome face.
Being a bit groggy upon waking, she thought she was dreaming, closed her eyes, and reopened them after a while, still seeing the enlarged handsome face before her.
Recalling the events of last night, Abigail realized she didn’t return to her room or Teddy’s room. She was in… Brandon’s room.
Glancing around, the entire room had a cool, light gray tone, completely different from the old house’s style.
This must be the man’s preference, close to his dressing style.
She took a careful look around the room and then turned her gaze back to the man in front of her.
He was still asleep, long lashes lowered, brow relaxed, not as stunningly sharp as when awake. He looked somewhat less aggressive, like a big boy, pretty and serene.
Abigail couldn’t help but lick her lips, her gaze following the man’s handsome eyebrows all the way down to his thin cherry-like lips. She used to think her senior brother was good-looking, elegant and unique in his way. But after seeing Brandon, she felt no one was as heart-stopping as him.
What made her heart beat faster was that this man was hers.
And she, while liking him, was also liked in return.
Abigail never knew the best kind of love was mutually reciprocated.
Thinking of this, the smile on Abigail’s lips became sweeter, her body unconsciously leaning forward, lips almost touching Brandon’s.
Knock, knock, knock…
Just as Abigail was about to kiss him, knocking sounds came from outside.
She backed away in fright, looking at the sleeping Brandon. Seeing he hadn’t opened his eyes, she let out a sigh of relief, then heard Housekeeper Piers’ voice outside. “Second Young Master, have you seen the Young Mistress? Teddy has been crying and looking for her, but she’s neither in her room nor the dining hall. Have you seen her?”
“Whew!”
Abigail was startled, realizing she had forgotten about Teddy!
In a panic, she tried to get up, only for the man, who had his eyes closed the whole time, to suddenly stretch out his long arm and pull her back.
Falling back onto the bed, Abigail looked at the awake man in confusion, stuttering. “You… when did you wake up?”
“When you were about to sneak a kiss.” Brandon teased.
Abigail blushed, shaking her head without thinking. “Who… who was trying to sneak a kiss? Don’t you frame me!”
“Oh, then can I sneak a kiss from you?” Brandon didn’t argue, instead leaning closer to her ear and asking. The man’s voice, having just woken up, was slightly hoarse, making it even more seductive.
Abigail’s ears tingled, her fair face blushing pink. “You… you stop messing around.”
“If a fiancé sneaking a kiss from his fiancée is messing around, then what would you call you staying in my bed all night?” Brandon retorted.
“I didn’t… you were the one who…”
“Second Young Master?” Outside, Housekeeper Piers spoke again, puzzled because at this hour, the Second Young Master should be in the gym, not still in bed.
Interrupted, Abigail snapped back to reality. “Let me go; Teddy’s looking for me!”
But Brandon didn’t move; instead, he rolled over, pressing her down, holding himself up with one arm as he looked at her. “Don’t rush; let’s settle our matter first.”
“What matter… mmm…” Before she could finish her question, the man’s handsome face was inches away.
Feeling the softness of his lips, Abigail widened her eyes, dizzy. After a moment when she felt like she was suffocating from lack of air, the man rolled off her. She remained frozen, still in the same posture.
The day before, this man had also kissed her, but it was merely a peck, not a real kiss. But just now…
Abigail’s eyes were dazed, her mouth slightly open, heart pounding, her mind blank.
Brandon chuckled. “If you don’t want to get up, should we continue?”
“I’ll go check Teddy!” Finally snapping out of it, Abigail blurted out before fleeing.
“Hehehe…”
