Chapter 111 Voice Recorder
The first show was scheduled for the next day. Abigail took the dress to her room for final checks to prevent unforeseen circumstances. When she opened her room door, she was startled to find Sean sitting there.
He had returned to his company two days ago, so she a*sumed he wouldn’t be back so soon. His sudden appearance in her room rattled her already tense nerves.
“You seem surprised to see me,” he remarked casually as he put down her notebook.
Abigail used the notebook to doodle patterns for the dress, often finding inspiration at random moments. She hadn’t expected Sean to go through her notebook, especially when he had previously shown little interest in her work. “I heard you went back to work. Of course, I’m surprised to see you in my room,” she replied, quickly coming up with an excuse. She composed herself and held her dress up a little, then she went into the room and closed the door.
He glanced at the dress in her hands. “Is Luna having you check the dress instead of working on it
herself?”
“She wants me to check the details. She’s exhausted after working on it all day,” she explained.
He then turned his attention to her notebook. “Nice patterns. Did Luna ask you to learn this as
well?”
Abigail hung the dress on a hanger, feeling slightly offended by Sean’s comment. Her mind was already weary from a long day’s work, and she couldn’t figure out why Sean would ask her that. “Yep. What do you think? Do I have enough talent to be a designer?”
“Not bad,” he acknowledged. “Many people don’t have talent, but hard work can compensate.”
She grunted and changed the subject. “A stranger pricked me last time. Have you found out who
did it?”
“We did. I’ll handle it,” Sean calmly a*sured Abigail.
She involuntarily looked at him with a hint of subtle mockery flickering in her eyes. However, he
seemed oblivious to it. She looked away, pretending to be interested in the dress, but her thoughts
were elsewhere. She muttered, He’s going to sweep it under the rug because it’s related to someone named ‘Palmer.‘ She held the dress, finding the situation amusing and pathetic, and thought, If he refuses to tell me, I will ask Luna to investigate.
“After you’re done, make sure to get some rest. You’re working harder than any a*sistant,” he advised
before leaving the room.
The door was closed, and Abigail was still stunned. She had expected Sean to stay longer, but it was just a brief visit. She entered the bathroom and splashed her face with cold water. When she looked at her reflection, she frowned. She appeared vacant and worn; even she was repulsed by her appearance, let alone that man.
After a shower and some adjustments to the dress, she sewed a few patches to perfect the details.
An urgent knock on her door roused her from hier groggy state the following day. It wasn’t even seven o’clock yet, and she knew the show, if today, wouldn’t start so early.
Approaching the door, Abigail was about to inquire about the visitor’s identity when Luna
“No, I got some sleep, but I found this in the couch crevices this morning. Someone must have

access the files,” Luna whispered.
