He thought he would make her happy before he asked her about the letter. So, on the way back, he stopped for chocolates and ice cream and then went to the florist to get flowers for her.

Abigail had refused to speak to him and had repeatedly asked him to leave her alone, but she didn't appear to be uncomfortable with Jasper.
Christopher wondered whether she had asked him to leave as well. He felt a sense of betrayal and jealousy. His mind raced with thoughts of what they could be talking about.
'Did she tell him about the letter?' he wondered.
The thought that she had more faith in others than in him made him restless. He wanted to ask her where he lacked in showing his love and care to her that she didn't trust him.
