Hellbound With You novel Chapter 118

Chapter 118 Double

Alex jumped off with a small thud on the ground before he stretched out his arms and helped his little fruit on the ground.

She saw that someone was making their way over to them and when the man reached out to take the rein to pull the horse away, Abi suddenly held onto the horse's neck, as if she didn't want to be parted from it.

When she realized what she just did, she cleared her throat, a little embarrassed. This horse was not hers…

"Uhm… Alex… where are they taking him?" she then asked but Alex, who watched her reaction with some amusement, decided to tease her again.

"I don't know. They might be going to sell him or bring him to the? slaughterhouse–"

"No!" Abi suddenly yelled and she grabbed the reins from that man who just came. She pulled the horse towards the helicopter as if she was planning to squeeze him inside the small area and bring him home. "If you are selling him… I will buy him off you!" she exclaimed as she gripped the horse's rein hard as if she wasn't planning on letting him go.

"Abigail, that's an Arabian thoroughbred. I think it sells for about 100,000 dollars," Alex said and as expected, the little fruit froze.

The next second, Abi walked towards Alex and looked up at him with sad, puppy dog eyes. "Alex… can you find someone you know to buy him? Someone who is nice, please?" she pleaded and Alex raised a brow.

"What, why do I need to find someone else? Why aren't you asking me to buy him?" he asked leaning down.

"Would you?!" Abi almost jumped.

"Well, why don't you convince me?" he leaned back on the helicopter, crossing his arm as he looks at her. "Why should I buy it?"

"Uhm… Alex... Can't you see how amazing this beautiful creature is?!"

"I have many horses in Country V, Abigail."

"But this one is extraordinary. He's the most gorgeous horse I have ever seen. And… and… the nicest too. He's so sweet and well-behaved!"

"That's because he's old, Abigail."

Abi pressed her lips tight. How should she convince him?

"Look at his shiny coat and perfect disposition... Even his tail is super gorgeous!"

As Abi continued, Alex was busy enjoying the sight of her doing her best to think of a good enough reason. He was so enjoying it that he kept on acting hard to get until the girl suddenly stepped closer to him, so close that their bodies were almost touching.

"Alex, please buy him," she cupped her hands and pleaded but the man didn't budge.

"You really don't want to?" she looked like a drenched little puppy. Alex had had enough of teasing her and was about to give in when the little lamb suddenly looked like a lightbulb just lit up above her head!

"Ah, I know! I'll ask Ezekiel Qin to buy it!" she suddenly exclaimed, causing Alex's face to immediately harden. "I saw his interview before and he mentioned he liked horses and he said he would buy any horse that catches his attention!"

The smirk on Alex's lips was long gone the moment she mentioned Zeke's name.

"Zeke will never buy an old horse, Abigail," he strongly discouraged her.

"I think he will. He will definitely like this horse!"

"I told you, he won't buy it!"

"I'll buy that horse for 200,000 dollars. Here's my business card. I'll send someone over to pay and get the horse," he said, and the man and Abi looked at him in disbelief. _{fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓}
