Hellbound With You (WN)

Andrew congratulated his daughter and his gaze quickly flew towards the man holding the tree. He had actually been watching his daughter for a while now and when he saw her hold the man ’s hand while happily talking to him, Andrew could already tell that this man might have been the one who made Abi became livelier and happier. 

But when Andrew saw the man ’s face, he immediately felt uneasy. The young man was too good looking and not that just that, he had this noble and intimidating aura that nobody could ignore, despite the fact that he was acting like a prop man. Andrew could just feel that the young man was definitely not someone ordinary. In fact, he couldn ’t believe that his presence was far more incredible than this country ’s esteemed president whom he had once met by accident and even shook hands with. But it wasn ’t just because of that. Andrew felt uneasy the moment he saw how the young man stared at his daughter. That look in his eyes… it was…

”Thank you, daddy, ” Abi replied as she pulled away from her father ’s embrace. It was then that she saw that her father was looking past her. He was looking at Alex and Abi suddenly felt quite nervous. 

”Who is this young man? ” Andrew asked his daughter and Abi felt like her heart jump. She looked at Alex and the man just stared back at her calmly. His eyes gave nothing away and Abi couldn ’t get anything from them. 

”Uhm… dad, this Alex, ” she told him, almost shyly, as she looked at Alex. There were questions in her eyes, asking if it was okay for her to disclose that he was her boyfriend to her family. She didn ’t want to lie to her family again so she was thinking of telling them the truth but she was hesitant. She was afraid that Alex might not like it. 

Andrew leaned in on her daughter and whispered in her ear. ”Abi, this is the man you like, right? ” he asked and Abi blushed as she meekly nodded. 

Her father then looked at Alex again. ”Are you courting my daughter? ”

Alex and Abi had the same reaction upon hearing the man ’s question. Alex ’s eyes flew towards Abi. Courting? Was he courting his little fruit? 

Alex didn ’t court. He never chased any woman before and the word ’courting ’ had never appeared in his dictionary. 

”No, ” he replied. Alex didn ’t know why he was acting strange, almost as if he was subconsciously being careful in front of this man. This man was ordinary, he could sense it with one look but for some reason, it was like he didn ’t even want to frown while the man was looking at him. It almost looked like he was trying to give him the impression that he was not a bad guy, even though he was, and he didn ’t know why.
