Abigail’s Second Life (Abigail and Sean) novel Chapter 540

Chapter 540 The Mastermind Behind The Scenes

Abigail was engrossed in her work when she received a call from Eric.

“How are you? Are you alright?” She was genuinely concerned about his well-being.

Eric, being a kind-hearted person, never had any ill intentions towards others. So, this kind of harm was even harder for him to bear.

“My grandmother wants me to marry Lily. Can we meet and talk about it?” he asked in a low, distressed

tone.

With a softer voice, she replied, “I’m at the studio.”

After they hung up, she asked her assistant to buy some desserts and snacks.

Eric had to maintain his body fat for filming, so he rarely indulged in good food. Today, she wanted him to enjoy a satisfying meal.

Eric arrived at L.Moon, dragging his weary body. The sight of Abigail made his eyes turn red. He choked up, finding it even more difficult to endure.

Having witnessed so much in the entertainment industry, he hoped to stay clean in this circle.

As Eric looked at the desserts, he smiled bitterly. “I’ve been dieting, working out, and focusing on my acting, hoping to meet someone exceptional. I never expected to meet someone like Lily.”

After saying that, he picked up the dessert and delicately took a bite with a spoon. Moments later, he whispered, “It’s so sweet and delicious. I can’t even remember the last time I had dessert.”

At that moment, Abigail was sending a message to Sean on her phone, but Eric’s words made her pause. She looked at him and asked, “What does your family think about this matter?”

“My parents don’t agree to this marriage. My grandmother and Old Mrs. Pearson are very close, just like you and Luna. Moreover, Old Mrs. Pearson dotes on Vincent very much. So, we can’t take this matter to court, and I have to get married.” After indulging in some sweets, he felt much better.

His words made her realize that large families were indeed troublesome. Their relationships were
