Chapter 309 The Open-Minded Carters

Abbot had been feeling relentless while driving home.

Not until he arrived at the Carters' Mansion and saw his parents did Abbot finally find the reason.

Benjamin and Camila, who used to keep a low profile, dolled themselves up.

They looked like they were trying to show off to the whole world how rich they were.

Abbot twitched the corner of his mouth and rolled down the car window, uttering, "Mom, you and

Dad..."

Before Abbot finished his words, Benjamin and Camila had got to the passenger seat side and began

to observe Rebecca through the window.

Camila stated, "This girl looks so pretty."

Benjamin said to Camila, "Are you sure this girl fell for your son?"

Camila shot a glance at Benjamin as she said, "She's such a beautiful girl. How could she fall for your

son per se? She must have had eyes for your son's wealth!"

Benjamin nodded in agreement, saying, "That makes sense."

Camila continued, "About the welcome gifts I asked you to prepare, did you get them ready?"

Benjamin uttered, "Sure, don't worry."

Camila added, "Whether you will have grandchildren all depends on today."

Benjamin said, "The time is tight for such a tough task."

Right after that, Camila winked at Abbot and urged him by saying, "What are you waiting for? Hurry to

carry her off the car."

Abbot said with a frown, "Mom."

Camila pretended to be unhappy and joked, "Don't tell me you want your dad to do it for you?"

Abbot couldn't let it happen for sure.

Getting out of the car reluctantly, Abbot went to the shotgun seat, opened the door, and leaned over to

carry Rebecca down. Thanks to Camila's order, Abbot carried Rebecca all the way to his bedroom.

More than ten minutes later, Abbot concernedly looked at Rebecca who was sleeping soundly in his

bed.

"How did she end up sleeping in my bed?" Abbot thought inwardly.

"Will she overthink it if she knows this is my room? Will she think I'm giving her a chance?"

Abbot stared at Rebecca for a long time with worry. Finally, he left the bedroom with clenched teeth.

Rebecca didn't wake up until night fell.

During this period, Faye called Rebecca several times but never got through9. In the end, Faye had no

choice but to let Colin call Abbot.

Abbot stuttered on the phone, "She's fine. What else can happen to her?"

Colin seemed to smile and asked, "Did you send her home?"

Abbot answered with hesitation, "Of... of course."

Abbot always stammered whenever he told lies since childhood.

Colin saw Abbot through but didn't lay it bare. He stated "It's all right if you've sent her back home.

Faye is still worried about her, so she let me call you."

Abbot uttered, "What's to worry about?"

Colin ridiculed, "Probably you might do something out of line?"

Abbot sounded nervous, "You never know who's the one that would do something out of line."

Hearing Abbot's words, Colin sensed something and asked jokingly, "Did she do something to you?"

At the thought of how Rebecca called him just now, Abbot lowered his voice and asked, "Does Faye

look very different in front of you privately?"

Colin said meaningfully, "Hmm?"

Abbot continued, "Rebecca looks quite serious normally but in private... Forget it. After all, she's a

young lady. If word gets out, people might judge her."

Colin asked, "What did Rebecca do to you in private?"

Abbot appeared a little agitated and said, "Forget it. Gotta hang up."

Colin was rendered speechless.

Abbot hung up the phone. Looking at his dark phone screen, Colin arched his brows slightly.

Catching sight of that, Faye asked, "Did Abbot send Rebecca home?"

Colin pressed his mobile phone against his jaw and honestly answered, "I don't think so."

Faye frowned and uttered, "Nothing will happen between them, will it?"

Colin looked at Faye and joked, "No, but judging from what Abbot said, Rebecca seemed to have Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

thrown herself at him but was turned down by Abbot."

Faye was wordless.

In Abbot's bedroom.

After Rebecca woke up, she kept staring at the ceiling in a daze.

She couldn't help thinking about how narcissistic a man Abbot was that he had people print a huge

picture of him on the ceiling.

The Abbot in the picture was beaming toplessly. His shoulders were wide, and his waist was thin; he

looked so cut.

Rebecca was sunk in thought as the bedroom was pushed open from the outside. The next second,

Camila came in with a smile.

"Becca, you're up?"

Becca?

Rebecca got up with a start. Even her own mother had never addressed her so intimately.

Looking at Camila walking in elegantly, Rebecca hurriedly sat up and groomed her disheveled hair,

saying, "Hello, Mrs. Carter."

Camila approached, sat down next to Rebecca, and smiled. "Did you have a good night's sleep? Are

you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

As Camila said, she pulled Rebecca's hand and put a big gold bracelet on Rebecca's wrist.

Rebecca took a look at the bracelet and uttered in astonishment, "Mrs. Carter?"

Camila patted Rebecca on the back of her hand and uttered. "Relax. I don't know what to give you for

our first meeting. It might be kind of old-fashioned to give you a gold bracelet, but I hope you'll like it."

Rebecca thought inwardly, "Give me a gold bracelet for our first meeting. They do have money to burn,

don't they?"

Rebecca always knew that the Carters were rich, but it turned out that she still underestimated their

wealth.

They were not acquainted at all, yet they gave her a gold bracelet as a present.

Fixing her eyes on the big gold bracelet on her wrist, Rebecca lost control of her facial expression. She

smiled so happily that her eyes were narrowed into a slit as she said, "Mrs. Carter, it's so kind of you."

Camila asked, "Would you like something to eat?"

Rebecca answered in a proper manner, "It's getting late. I should go back."

Camila uttered, "No rush. I'll ask Abbot to send you home after you grab some food."

Then, she pulled Rebecca downstairs.

Sitting in the dining room, Rebecca finally caught on to why Abbot was so confident.

His family was indeed affluent enough!

The dishes for dinner that they were having were worth at least 1500 bucks, let alone the decoration

and furnishings of the Carters' Mansion.

At the table, everyone had their own thoughts.

Camila asked Rebecca about her family from time to time. Abbot sat opposite Rebecca with his face

darkened and eyes filled with warnings.

After dinner, Rebecca proposed to go home. Camila did not ask her to sleep over but winked at

Benjamin, asking, "What about the gifts for Becca?"

Benjamin said solemnly, "I've asked someone to put them in the trunk."

Camila uttered, "Becca, go and take a look."

Rebecca was stupefied. Camila took Rebecca to get up and walk out of the mansion.

Abbot's trunk was full of various gifts.

Rebecca finally realized something amiss. She hurriedly explained to Camila, "Mrs. Carter, I'm afraid

you've misunderstood something. Abbot and I are only friends."

Camila clenched Rebecca's hand and said in a voice that was only audible to them two, "Abbot said

you fell for him, but I don't believe it. I know you don't like him."

Rebecca was taken aback and uttered, "Then why you still..."

Camila smilingly stated, "Although you don't like Abbot, you can like his money!"

Rebecca couldn't help thinking to herself, "Are the Carters so open-minded?"

Camila said, "Abbot is loaded."

Rebecca awkwardly laughed and said, "Mrs. Carter, as the saying goes, 'Money is not everything.'"

Camila glanced behind her and saw Abbot smoking on the steps. She then whispered, "Becca, it's now

or never. Think about it. Abbot is so rich and handsome and pea-brained. It's surely a once-in-a-lifetime

chance."

Rebecca thought inwardly, "Now I wonder if Abbot is their biological son."
