My Wife Is A Secret Assassin

Chapter 109: Eavesdrop On Us

Chance was still in a bad mood, as he was deeply hurt by Samantha's accusation on him. He talked to Carol as he knew her state of mind was not good and he didn't wish to trigger her anger anymore but he was still not in the mood to interact with others. 

On the other hand, after walking away from Chance, Carol joined the two girls.

"What happened? Why are you in a bad mood now?" Mia asked her.

"Nothing. Chance said I should move on" Carol shared, with her friends hoping to get their support.

"He is right, you should" Abigail supported Chance.

"You are saying this because of what happened earlier. You don't mean it" Carol knew how upset Abigail was for what happened at the lake.

"I mean it. Be thankful Samantha didn't file a case against you, or else you would have had a criminal record on you" Abigail tried to put some sense into her head.

"I am telling you two the truth. It was Samantha who pushed me into the water, I didn't trip by mistake" Carol said the same thing which she told them hundreds of times.

"Carol, again the same thing? Will you please stop it" Mia was annoyed with Carol's lies.

"I am not lying. I accept my intention was indeed to push Samantha. I was a fool, I didn't think through it. I am not a serial killer or an expert at murders, so I failed. I had no idea Samantha knows how to swim. I really didn't think through and what I did was definitely stupid."

"Good realization" Abigail exclaimed sarcastically.

"But my point is, I am accepting all of this. So, please believe my truth. It was Samantha who intentionally pushed me. She even smiled while pushing me into the lake." Carol desperately explained recollecting the events of earlier.

"Stop it Carol, please" Mia begged her.

"Why would you not believe me?" Carol questioned Mia.

"Because we know you are lying" Abigail answered her.

"How can you be so sure? Why can Samantha not push me?" Carol was agitated.

"Look at her, she is so delicate. She even saved you Carol in spite of your intentions. It must be difficult for you to accept this but she is a very nice person, rather she is the nicest person I ever met." Mia shared her opinion on Samantha.

"Be thankful, she saved you and refused to file a case against you. Now no more discussion on this topic, I am very annoyed" Abigail strictly warned Carol.

Carol felt helpless, she had no idea how to make everyone believe her.

She wanted to tell Chance too about what happened but she realized if she can't convince her two close friends then there was no way she can ever convince Chance.

"Anyway, let's talk about something else" Mia suggested to change the atmosphere.

"Chance just told me something, which kind of implied, something happened between him and Samantha" Carol shared with them looking disappointed ignoring Mia's efforts to change the topic.

"Carol, it is their personal lives, we should not discuss it" Mia warned her not encouraging her talks and added, "There is this new play releasing next week, we should go" Mia excitedly suggested changing the topic and the three girls discussed about it.

"Guys, the food is ready. We will now barbecue it so come over here, this food will taste good when hot" Jack called the three girls over.

Then Samantha, Chance and David prepared the barbecue, the other four were eating and they were also feeding these three who were busy preparing the food.

After eating the local speciality dish that Samantha prepared, everyone went crazy. 

It was so tasty, they couldn't stop at one bite, they kept asking for more.

Mia ensured Samantha too eats this dish, as she got worried, they will finish it off, not letting her taste it.

Abigail fed this dish to Chance. He too loved it like everyone else but he didn't appreciate it and neither he let it show on his face as to how much he loved it.

Samantha curiously looked at Chance, hoping for him to praise her food, or react to it but he looked indifferent as if what he just ate was just like any other dish.

The one person she was craving to get praises from was acting indifferent and this angered Samantha but then she recollected what she did.

'This guy is really difficult when he gets upset' She frustratingly thought to herself.

There, Chance loved the local dish and he wanted more but he could feel Samantha's gaze on him.

He didn't wish to give her the satisfaction of him loving her dish. She insulted him earlier and hurt him, so he is not going to be the reason behind her happiness.

Therefore, in a low volume, he said, "Hey Abi, feed this dish to me forcefully. I'll refuse to eat it but insist me to eat more" He instructed Abigail.

"Why? If you don't like it, I am happy to not share it with you. This dish is awesome and limited."

"Abi, I had a fight with Samantha, I can't eat the dish she made while still being upset with her."

Abigail helplessly shook her head, "You and your male ego"

"It is not male ego. I would lose my face if I eat what she cooked in spite of being angry with her"

"Why are you angry with her? What happened?" Abigail casually asked.

"None of your business" 

Abigail helplessly shook her head but she forced Chance to eat the dish just like he requested. Chance shook his head saying he doesn't want to eat it and Abigail was forcefully feeding him.

When Samantha saw this, she was furious with Chance as he was refusing this amazing dish she prepared.

While cooking this dish, she was extra careful and put more efforts as she wanted Chance to enjoy it but seeing him act like this, she was angry.

"Abi, why are you feeding him forcefully if he doesn't like it. Don't waste this amazing dish on him" Jack, who was observing these two stepped forward and took away the plate from Abigail and started eating food from it.

Chance wanted to beat Jack, for ruining his idea and stealing away his food.

Abigail apologetically looked at Chance as their plan was ruined. She then went to Samantha who was still barbecuing the dish for them.

"So, this is found in San Francisco only?" Mia was asking Samantha, as she was curious about this dish.

"Yes" Samantha confirmed.

"Ahh, you are so lucky, I am going to miss this dish when I'll go away to New York" Mia complained.

Samantha smiled at her, "Whenever you want to eat it, just come here to San Diego" She joked.

"Yes, this dish is so amazing, I can do that. Maybe, I'll ask David to shift here." 

"Woah, for this food, you will leave me?" Abigail who just joined them, heard their conversation.

"Yeah, this food is so good, I don't mind shifting here for it" Mia smiled cheekily.

Abigail looked at Samantha, "Sam, this dish is really amazing. You are an awesome cook" She genuinely praised her.

"Thank you" Samantha politely smiled. 

Abigail then put more of this dish on her plate and secretly shared it with Chance, who loved every bite of it.

In an hour, the seven people completed all the food and they were tired with all the eating and drinking as there was unlimited alcohol too. But everyone drank in their capacity and no one was drunk. 

They all sat around the bonfire with drinks in their hands, they recollected some old memories.

David shared some funny stories of Chance and Jack; these two men then shared some embarrassing moments of David. 

The women too recollected some funny encounters in their life.

It was a night full of fun and happiness. Samantha surprisingly enjoyed their company and she remembered how she indeed had a good time with Chance's friends when they were in Hawaii.

After a few hours, they all started feeling sleepy, so they called it a night.

Mia and Abigail, were heading to their tents when Carol stopped them.

"Guys, I just got an idea to prove Samantha was the one who pushed me" Carol excitedly stated.

"Will you get over it, please?" Mia was tired of this topic.

"Please you two. At least listen to my idea" Carol begged them so Abigail asked her to explain her 'idea'.

"Samantha is acting all nice in front of you two. I am planning to confront her while we both are alone. You two can hide nearby and eavesdrop on us to find out the truth."

"Carol, this is very cheap" Abigail disapproved of her idea.

"Pleaseeeee"

"Please guys"

"Pleasseeee, believe me this will work"

"Please give me one chance"

"Pleaseeee"

Carol kept begging them.

"Fine, we will agree with this but on one condition" Abigail was annoyed with Carol's pleading so she decided to give in to her request but by keeping one condition.
