Forced to Marry a Vegetative Man
chapter 3
The deal was made, Abigail was willing to marry Raiden—grandson of FX Group owners. The wedding was held simply, this was done to avoid the media that could have made bad news about the Rafael Family.
After performing the blessing procession, Abigail was taken to the magnificent house owned by Rafael. Not only Raiden and Rafael inhabit the mansion. Of course there also lived the second son of Raphael named Yudith and her husband Laos.
At first, Abigail felt afraid to enter the house that had a new atmosphere for her. Abigail tried to keep herself calm despite the many sharp glances she had on her as she stepped in.
Rafael who looks cruel actually welcomes the arrival of Abigail with a friendly. It was as if Abigail was her own granddaughter. That attitude made Abigail wonder about Rafael because the news outside was not entirely true.
“Come, Abigail! Raiden is waiting at the top,” said Rafael pointing at the stairs to the second floor of the house.
On the right side of Rafael there was Yudith who obviously did not like him. The woman showed a cold and stiff attitude as Abigail introduced herself for the first time.
“Sa-my Abigail, uhm—“ Abigail's remarks came to a halt when Rafael replied.
“Yudith! Give your best attitude to Abigail, don't scare her.”
“Come, Papa. She is not a stock planter in our company, and this attitude of mine is very reasonable for the woman who will take care of and look after Raiden.”
“Already, you better go upstairs, Abigail.”
Hearing Rafael's orders, Abigail immediately walked up the stairs, dragging her suitcase. However, none of the servants or someone there helped Abigail, as if she was not an important person in the house.
Arriving at the second floor of the luxury house, Abigail was confused by the existence of Raiden's room. Finally, she decided to walk back while looking through the open door of her husband's room.
When Abigail saw two guards in front of Raiden's room, she walked over and asked them.
“Sorry, do you know where Mr Raiden's room is?”
“Nona, go inside. Mr. Raiden is waiting for you.”
The figure of the man in black and neat looking clothes opened the door. Inside there was a figure of a man who had just married him, the man was just lying on his bed without movement.
“Uhm, where do I put my stuff?” asked Abigail politely.
“You can put it there, it is a walking room that you can use with Mr. Raiden. There are certainly many items belonging to Mr. Raiden, so you will have no trouble getting the needs of the Master in this room.”
“Thank you, I will put this bag first there, then come back here.”
Abigail walked past Raize— Raiden—'s loyal bodyguard to arrive at the walking closet in the corner of the room.
After returning, Raize explains to Abigail about the work she did during her time as a wife. No, more precisely the male caretaker who did not move from his place.
“Here you only take care and look after Mr. Raiden only. Give everything that is needed by the Master. Any developments, you should tell it to me or to the doctor who used to check on Mr. Raiden.”
Hearing Raize's explanation, Abigail simply nodded to answer. The woman felt her existence was more appropriate to be considered a caregiver or nurse than a wife of the FX Group's main heir.
Look at him, just sleeping in bed. His eyes opened and it was terrible to see, Abigail's inner.
After listening to Raize's explanation, Abigail begins to do her job of ridding Raiden's body.
“Nona, you can use warm water to wash Mr. Raiden's body. Prepare some equipment in the nightstand if needed.”
“Call Raize, Miss. I'm a trust guard here. I'll stand guard in front of the room, another one .. This room is equipped with a surveillance camera, your every movement will be monitored from there.”
“I understand, Raize.”
After listening to everything described, Abigail began her first day as a wife by taking care of her vegetative husband.
“Sucks, why don't you just call me a babysitter or a nurse? Why should they marry us?” abigail complained while standing in front of Raiden.
Abigail's eyes circled through Raiden's face. He was observing the handsome looking man.
“You're handsome, baby no one takes good care of you. Hum, all right, I'll do it.”
Abigail grabbed a kit to wash Raiden's skin that looked dry because the room was cold. Not only that, Abigail searches for their whereabouts to store a tool to shave fine hair around Raiden's face.
“I better ask on—“ Abigail's speech stopped when I saw Yudith's figure at the entrance of the room.
Yudith called Abigail and asked her to speak outside.
“I hope you know your position here as what? Never expect more than this. You are just a payment for all your father owes you.”
“Sa-I understand, Mistress.”
“Good! Now ... you'd better finish your assignment right there, then meet me below.”
Yudith continued her steps towards the ground floor of the house.
“What the fuck? Why is he so cruel to me?” muttered Abigail who was now back in Raiden's room.
Abigail approached Raiden, then began to cleanse her husband's body slowly and gently.
“Your skin is very dry, I am sure you have been in this room for a long time.”
Despite being unable to do anything, Raiden could hear all of Abigail's words and the touch she was making.
Unknowingly, Abigail was shocked by the glint of Raiden's eyes that were fixed on her. Abigail knew, surely Raiden would not like her because she was not a beautiful and rich woman.
“Master, why look at me like that? I really did it because my father owed so much to your family. I hope, after you recover and regain consciousness, you can release me, so as not to kill me or throw me into the middle of the forest,” Abigail said.
Suddenly, Raiden's expression was like he didn't like the touch Abigail had done. Abigail is shocked and a little afraid to touch Raiden again.
“Master, are you angry with this attitude of mine? Take it easy, Sir. I'm not going to dare hurt you, however your family is already kind.”
From the surveillance cameras, Raize could see what Abigail was doing inside there. The man who had always been guarding Raiden was pleased that someone was willing to be beside his Master.
“Mr Raiden, don't behave like that!” abigail exclaimed who suddenly let out a louder sound.
Raize immediately went in and asked what was going on there? Abigail simply explained to him about the surprise she got from Raiden's eyes.
Goddamnit! Why should I be next to this man?, the inner Abigail who once again cursed her fate.
