Chapter 2759 - 232: Abraham Redington the Tsundere
Lincoln Harrison paused, frowning as he asked, "Have you ever heard the saying, ’A forced melon is not sweet’?"
Originally, Abraham Redington had felt less antagonistic toward Lincoln due to his forthrightness, but upon hearing this, he couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
The man’s muscles tensed in that instant.
He lifted his arrogant, cold chin and said in an icy voice, "So, this is what you wanted to say... Are you trying to tell me that Molly and I are not a match, that the person she likes isn’t me... or, are you about to tell me that, in fact, you and Molly are the ones who are truly in love, and you two being together is what would bring happiness, hmm?"
"..." Lincoln was speechless; he knew that Abraham had misunderstood.
"That’s not what I meant. I’ve already said that I’m the only one with feelings for the underclassman. We only just met today, how could there be mutual affection?"
Abraham’s eyes were cold: "Then what do you mean?"
Lincoln searched for words: "What I meant is... I want to ask... has she ever mentioned a man with ’Andrew’ in his name to you?"
Andrew?
Abraham’s narrow black pupils tightened.
He hadn’t heard of anyone with just ’Andrew’ in their name.
But someone with ’Andrew Howard’, he did know.
And coincidentally, not only did he know him, but he was also quite familiar with that ’person’.
Abraham remained expressionless: "Why bring up that person all of a sudden?"
Seeing Abraham’s reaction, Lincoln knew he must know the man.
Lincoln: "I don’t know why, actually, I don’t even know this person. It’s just today in the restaurant, I heard the underclassman repeatedly mention this person’s name all night. After getting drunk, she clung to a wine bottle and silently cried.
Watching her while she cried, calling out ’Andrew, Andrew...’, I thought, she must truly like the man whose name contains ’Andrew’."
Lincoln’s handsome features briefly showed regret. If he had met Molly earlier, he certainly wouldn’t have let her show such a sorrowful expression.
Unfortunately, he spent four years at this school, only to meet such an unforgettable underclassman right before graduation.
"Ha..." Just when Lincoln was secretly lamenting, he suddenly heard a low chuckle.
Startled, he looked up, thinking he misheard, only to see the previously cold-faced man holding Molly and laughing softly.
Lincoln: "..."
"You... Sir, feelings can’t be forced... you... don’t be too heartbroken." Not knowing how to offer comfort, Lincoln, being a man himself, could understand this ’fiancé’s’ feelings.
Seeing a smile suddenly appearing on Abraham’s icy face, Lincoln thought he couldn’t accept the truth and had become emotionally twisted.
"Heartbroken?" The man holding Molly looked up, his deep blue eyes glimmering with an enchanting shine, "You’re overthinking it; Molly loves me, why should I be heartbroken?"
Lincoln: "... Are you sure?"
The underclassman kept calling another man’s name; was this Abraham Redington so angry that he couldn’t think straight?
Abraham nodded slightly: "I’m sure."
"There’s no harm in telling you." Abraham’s handsome, deep features rarely showed open emotion.
His eyes sparkled with pride, even a touch of smugness: "Even though my name is Abraham Redington, my nickname is Andrew Howard."
The fiancée, whom he thought had been whisked away and who didn’t accompany him after work, was actually thinking about him the whole time.
Knowing this ’secret’, how could anyone not be happy?
"Thank you for sending Molly home; here’s my business card. If this happens again, just call me to pick her up."
Abraham held out a business card between his long fingers to Lincoln, then, before Lincoln could react, he coldly closed the door, carrying his little fiancée back into the condominium.
Outside the door, in the chilly hallway, Lincoln held the dark business card and gradually saw the cold, strong lettering on it—
Abraham Redington.
CEO of Loyalty Group & CEO at Royal Palace Branch.
Lincoln’s dark pupils suddenly shrank; the underclassman’s fiancé was actually the CEO of two major conglomerates.
It seemed he had no chance this time.
