100 Days to Seduce the Devil

People started to gather around, watching the amazing performance of Abigail as she kept shooting ping pong balls into the fish bowls. The carnival staff and the guy who challenged Abigail already had problematic looks on their faces.

Ethan cheered on Abigail, feeling so proud and happy. The spectators cheered along with Ethan, clapping their hands. The guy wanted to hide from Abigail but Ethan made sure to guard him, not allowing him to disappear from his sight.

Ethan extended his right hand in front of the guy. "Now. pay." Ethan was asking him for the money. Abigail was done throwing 50 ping pong balls. It was the highest record ever in that carnival game. Some spectators started taking pictures and videos of her.

When Abigail noticed it, she stopped and turned to the audience. "No taking video. Please…"

Because of her plea, the spectators complied with her request. They stopped recording this.

"Stop!" the guy blurted out of the blue. He wanted Abigail to stop playing since he didn\'t have enough money to pay. "I admit defeat." The guy lowered his head. He felt embarrassed facing Abigail.

The Carnival Staff felt relief. He was worried that Abigail would win every goldfish inside the aquarium.

"Go and apologize to my son first," Abigail ordered the man.

The man turned to Ethan and apologized. He was so unlucky to encounter Abigail and Ethan today.

"I\'m sorry for mocking and insulting you. I hope you will forgive me."

"If Mom forgives you then I will also forgive you." Ethan glanced at Abigail.

Abigail just nodded her head. She didn\'t want her day to be ruined by a stranger. All she wanted was to enjoy this day with Ethan. "Okay, son. Let\'s forget about this."

Ethan bobbed his head. Then he approached the carnival staff, whispering something to him. In a few seconds, Ethan was already holding a fish bowl containing two goldfish. Then he handed the fish bowl over to the guy. "Here, you can have this."

The guy was surprised because of Ethan\'s thoughtfulness. He didn\'t expect that he would give him two goldfish. "Give this to your daughter." Ethan noticed the little girl who was standing just a few steps away from her dad.

The guy was at a loss for words. He was touched by Ethan\'s kind gesture. Abigail could only smile as she watched Ethan. \'He is very generous with a kind heart. Who would have thought he is the son of the devil, Nathan? Hmm, but Nathan is not that bad. He has a kind heart. But I\'m not sure about Monica…\' 

Abigail grimaced at the thought of Monica. She immediately shook her head, erasing Monica from her mind. Her mood would be ruined if she would think about her.

"Mom, let\'s play another game! Can you teach me this time? I want to win a prize for you as well!"

Abigail stroked his head. "Okay. Let\'s go. I will advise the carnival staff that we will get our prize later before we go home."

It did not take long before Ethan and Abigail reached the second booth. It was another game of skill- a shooting game! The player must target the small balloons hanging on the wall. They would get different prizes depending on the number of balloons they would hit and burst.

This was an easy game for a sharpshooter like Phantomflake. But Little Ethan volunteered to play this game to win prizes for Abigail.

"Mom, can you teach me how to shoot?" Ethan asked Abigail.

"Of course. Come here."

Abigail positioned herself behind Ethan. The young boy held the gun and Abigail guided him. She began teaching Ethan, sharing some strategy how to hold the gun and steady his hold while aiming at his target. After giving him instructions, Abigail let go of Ethan\'s small arms.

"You can do it, son. Now, shoot!"

With Abigail\'s guidance, Ethan was confident to pull the trigger. He followed Abigail\'s instructions and put them into his heart and mind. He would always remember what she taught him.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Ethan successfully hit the three balloons!

"OMG! You are a fast learner!" Abigail praised Ethan, hugging him.

The carnival staff congratulated Ethan, letting him choose the prize he wanted for winning the game.

Ethan immediately pointed his finger at the two cute couple teddy bears. The bear was five inches in height. One was brown and the other one was white.

"Mom! This is yours. And this is mine. This is our remembrance and I won this for you!" Both Teddy bears were holding half of a heart. When putting them together, it would form a heart shape.

Ethan gave her the brown teddy bear while he kept the white one. "Mom, this is me. You keep mine and I will keep yours."

Abigail accepted the teddy bear, feeling so touched. She stared at the teddy bear for a long moment. \'I will treasure this bear. A very special gift from Ethan. This is priceless.\' 

For some unknown reason, Abigail\'s eyes became misty. She felt happy but at the same time, sad. She was afraid that her relationship with Ethan would change once she returned to her original body. She wanted to seize this moment since she didn\'t know what tomorrow might bring.

"Mom? Are you okay? Are you sad?" Ethan asked her worriedly when he saw her teary eyes.

Abigail smiled faintly and shook her head. Without a second thought, Abigail grabbed Ethan, hugging him tightly. "Thank you for this, Ethan. I promise… I will take good care of this teddy bear. I will treasure it. I promise." She felt comforted after embracing Ethan. "I will always remember you when seeing this teddy bear."

"Me too, Mom! I will take good care of the goldfish. I will ask my Dad to create a large aquarium near the garden. I will feed them every day!" Ethan giggled.

Abigail bobbed her head and leaned over, planting a soft kiss on Ethan\'s forehead.

"Let\'s play more. Then after this, we will visit your grandpa. He is waiting for you at the Xu Mansion."

"Okay, Mom!"

Abigail held Ethan\'s hand on the right side while she was holding the teddy bear on the left side. They continued touring around the amusement arcade before taking some rides. After two hours of roaming around the amusement park, Ethan and Abigail headed to Xu Family Mansion.

Old Man Xu had been waiting for them. He felt so happy after seeing Ethan. Ethan greeted his grandpa and hugged him. While the two were talking, Abigail received a message from Dave.

[ Hi Abi. Are you free? I just want to invite you to dinner. Vincent is here. He wants to meet you. ]

Abigail\'s eyes widened when Vincent\'s name was mentioned. She didn\'t want to miss this opportunity. She needed to have some interactions with Vincent to get to know him more. Who knows she might find more clues after spending some time with him.

[ Okay. I\'m free tonight. Where should I meet you? ] Abigail sent her reply.

[ Great. Let\'s meet at around 6:30 pm at my place. ] 

Abigail exhaled sharply while holding the phone. She glanced at Ethan. \'What if… Ethan\'s father is not Nathan, but Vincent? I need to confirm it.\'
