The Marriage She Turned into War novel Chapter 295

After we were done with visiting Lana, Abigail's mood seemed much better than before.

Luke drove us home. Abigail sat beside me and chatted nonstop. Meanwhile, Luke remained completely silent.

Occasionally, I noticed him shooting irritated glances at me through the rearview mirror. His eyes were filled with resentment.

I knew exactly why he hated me. It was because the relationship between Abigail and me had been improving lately. He probably felt like his chance with her was slipping away, and that frustration was now directed squarely at me.

But honestly, I couldn't be bothered to deal with someone like Luke. People like him only know how to act tough with those they perceive as weak. Since he clearly didn't think much of me, I had no reason to waste my energy on him.

After a while, Abigail seemed to grow tired. She leaned her head on my shoulder and, little by little, drifted off to sleep.

Seeing this, Luke's expression twisted in pure rage. He gripped the steering wheel tightly. With gritted teeth, he muttered in a low, threatening voice, "Samuel, listen carefully. You'd better never do anything to betray Abigail. If you do, I'll be the first one to come for you."

What he said immediately shifted my mood.

I found Luke amusing at this point. I couldn't help but let out a cold chuckle and asked, "Luke, I have a question for you."

Luke scowled and glanced at me from the rearview mirror. "What do you want to ask?" he replied coldly.

Still smiling, I shook my head and asked, "In what capacity are you speaking to me right now?"

Silence. Pure, palpable silence.

However, things were different now. My relationship with Abigail had started to improve.

We were slowly finding our way back to each other, and I have real hope for the future. I was no longer living as if each day might be my last. Instead, I wanted to live a life where every moment counts, where every day moved me toward something better.

I hoped to have a better life in the future, no longer bogged down by petty chaos and trivial matters but moving forward step by step according to the life I had envisioned for myself.

Even if I only had one day left to live, I wanted to live it fully without regrets. If I could do that, it would be enough.

Yet, it was clear that Luke was deliberately opposing me.

I didn't want to give him any chance to disrupt my peace, nor did I want to be recklessly targeted by someone so inexplicable!
