Sean, not in the mood for idle chatter, sternly warned, "If you spread my information around again or give out my phone number without discretion, I will not let you off easily!"
After ending the call, he drove to L.Moon and brought Abigail the coffee she used to enjoy.
"What's wrong? You seem upset." Abigail, accepting the coffee, asked with curiosity.
"Ran into some annoying issues." Sean approached her, leaned over, and said, "I need my wife's comfort."
"Hmm…" Abigail hesitated for a moment, then kissed his cheek, "Is a kiss okay?"
"That's enough." Sean was immediately satisfied, cheekily nuzzling against Abigail's face before standing up. "Have you had your meal on time?"
"I did. The cafeteria's chef is pretty good; I had lunch there." Abigail opened her coffee lid, took a sip, and said, "Still, the coffee you buy has a unique taste and always brings a special feeling."
"What unique feeling?" Sean couldn't help but smile.
"A fluttering heart." Abigail looked up at him, playfully batting her eyelashes.
Sean paused, then laughed, caressing her hair. "You're so adorable. I've got some things this afternoon, but I'll pick you up after work."
"Okay, you've been away for so long. There must be a lot waiting for you at the office, right? Just remember, on Valentine's Day, you're spending it with me, no work allowed." Abigail wanted them to have a proper Valentine's Day celebration.
"Sure." Sean affectionately pinched her smooth cheek.
After Sean left, Abigail focused on her design drawings, making up for the time she owed.
The debts from the past were now being repaid frantically.
Sean and Xavien went to Ocean Vista Haven, attracting the attention of many young girls despite his sunglasses and mask, his distinguished demeanor shining through.
Most notably, he was dressed in a suit, emitting a strong presence and a tough vibe.
Some young girls secretly took his pictures.
Xavien whispered, laughing, "Mr. Graham, you really stand out wherever you go."
"Have Kevin and the others arrived?" Sean ignored the tease.
In the July heat of the capital, wearing a suit made Sean feel uncomfortably warm, longing for the comfort of an air-conditioned room.
"They have; they’re waiting for us at BBQ Season," Xavien replied promptly.
