Chapter 83 Friends

Anthony’s smile twitched. He thought, “Marcus actually called a 20–million–dollar car a two–million–dollar one. He’ll do anything to avoid spending his wife’s money.”
This car was top of the line, with state–of–the–art bulletproof glass and security features alone, costing well over ten million dollars. In fact, their car’s safety features rivaled those of a presidential limousine.
Abigail, blissfully unaware, said with genuine gratitude, “If it weren’t for you, we’d never have gotten this car for such a good deal.”
Abigail didn’t know much about cars, but she could even guess that this one was worth more than two million dollars. Clearly, Anthony had done them a huge favor.
Abigail’s gaze toward Anthony became friendlier when thinking about how she owed him one.
Seeing Abigail’s heartfelt thanks, Anthony felt an undeniable sense of pride. He was so caught up in the moment he completely ignored Marcus‘ cold face and grinned from ear to
car.
Anthony said, “Abigail, we’re all family here. There is no need to thank me. If you ever need anything, just let me know. Don’t hesitate, okay?”

Abigail was taken aback. She thought, “The heir to the Harrison family is unexpectedly approachable.”
Hiding her surprise, Abigail responded politely, “Thank you. I didn’t expect you to be such a kind and generous person. You’re really great.”
Anthony was practically floating on air at Abigail’s words. “Do you really think so?”
Anthony slicked back his neatly combed hair, arched a brow, and grinned. “So, who do you think is better between Fitz and me?”
Abigail tilted her head and glanced at Marcus. She thought, “Fitz? So this is how his friends address him.”
Usually, someone asking that would be looking for humility. But Abigail glanced between the two men, then leaned slightly toward Marcus. She narrowed her eyes with a playful smile. “Of course, my husband is the best.”
Abigail’s soft, sweet voice reached Marcus like a gentle current flowing through him. The hardness in his gaze softened instantly as he looked at her affectionately.
Anthony clutched his chest dramatically as if struck by a fatal blow. “The bachelor just took a hit to the heart!”
“Wait… you’re single?” Abigail raised an eyebrow, clearly not buying it.

Anthony grinned shamelessly. “Abigail, even though I’m incredibly popular, I’m very selective. I’m currently single, I swear! Now that we’re friends, why don’t you introduce me to someone? Preferably someone as beautiful, understanding, and charming as you and who’ll also compliment my looks.”
Abigail was at a loss for words.
Marcus said, “Why don’t you try your luck at Tinder?” His face was stoic, but the chill in his voice and the subtle danger in his gaze were impossible to miss.
Anthony was speechless. He thought, “I just want to find someone like Abigail. Is that such a crime? Talk about being territorial!”
Anthony’s survival instincts kicked in. He immediately backpedaled and added, “Fine, you win.”
Anthony shot Marcus a defiant hmph before turning to Abigail with a smile. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out two tickets and presented them eagerly. “Abigail, this is the first time we met, and I should’ve brought a proper gift. But I left in a rush and didn’t get to prepare anything special. Please take these invitation tickets instead!”
Abigail tilted her head to glance at them, puzzled. “Anniversary celebration? I already have an invitation.”
Anthony chuckled, patiently explaining, “It’s not the same. The one you have was sent as part of a corporate partnership. This

one is a personal invitation from me.”
4/4
With these tickets, whether Abigail was still the Winchester
family heiress or not, no one at the event would dare look down on her.
