The bed belonged to Abigail, so Sean rarely rested on it.
Undeniably, he was eager to sleep on the spot where Abigail had slept. If he could take a nap in L.Moon, he wouldn't have to go home, and he could see her as soon as he woke up.
Abigail cleared her throat and glanced reluctantly at Sean, who showed her a look of anticipation. "Do as you please. I won't be sleeping in there anyway."
Sean stood up, smoothened out his clothes, and reassured her. "Don't worry. I'll take a nap and tidy up the place when I wake up."
She felt that it wasn't a matter of tidying up the room; she simply didn't want him to stay there and disturb her work.
As soon as Sean entered the lounge, Lynette immediately started chatting with Abigail again. "Abigail, when are you planning to remarry?"
"Why are you so concerned about this?" Abigail lowered her eyes and looked at the documents.
"Of course, I'm concerned about this! Lily, that wicked girl, has already set her sights on Sean! I can't let her succeed! I must fight in your battle for love!" Raising her coffee cup high, she added, "I'll fight in the name of Sean's coffee!"
Abigail couldn't help but chuckle.
She had been quiet in the lounge, so she must have held back by not talking too much.
"There's a computer next to you. Go ahead and use it. I'm quite occupied here." Abigail informed her before busying herself with work.
Hearing that, Lynette quieted down. She lay on the couch and immediately texted her group chat.
'Girls! Alana is my cousin! After a year, I finally met my biological cousin. I had a feeling I was right this time. Kelly just didn't seem like the real deal. Turns out that she didn't belong to our family at all!'
'Does that mean you'll be getting loads of pretty clothes? Won't you soon be loaded with branded clothing from top to toe?! Could you snap a photo of her? I really like her! She dresses like the girl of my dreams!'
'Can you ask if she's interested in women? I admire her because of how cool she is. She's everything I look for in a person!'
Reading her friends' replies, Lynette pouted.
'Her boyfriend even bought me coffee today! Stop staring at her. Besides, even if you like her and call her your ideal type, the feelings have to be mutual!'
After sending the message, she looked up at Abigail.
Abigail noticed that she was being observed and asked, without lifting her head, "What's the matter?"
'Alana is so humble! I thought she would be aloof since she designs celebrities' clothes. I can't believe that she likes us too!'
