Chapter 140 Arguing for the Sake of Arguing
She stood up to leave.
“You know how to pick an outfit, right? Why don’t you help me pick an outfit?” he said behind her.
She turned around, walked up to his suitcase, rummaged through his clothes, and put together a set of clothes in shades of ash gray. “If you want to tag along with me, wear light colors. Dark clothes.
absorb heat from the sun and will
get very hot.”
“Okay.” His eyes flickered with a hint of a smile.
After he finished getting ready, Abigail joined him for a meal. It was then that Luna sent her a screenshot. Joan had clarified in a comment that she was Sean’s cousin, and the comment was
reposted by numerous marketing accounts.
Abigail paid no mind to it, though.
Meanwhile, the sun had already risen at 7.30AM.
Abigail was shopping for fabrics at the fabric market, with Sean following behind her. “This isn’t real wool. Real wool shouldn’t feel scratchy, and it should be cool to the touch at first before it feels warm,” she said before deciding to check out another store.
As they went outside, Sean suddenly remarked, “You’ve learned a lot in a few months working as an a*sistant. You’re even more professional than some who’ve been doing this for years.”
Abigail’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly defended herself, saying, “Maybe I’m just naturally talented and hardworking. After all, one has limitless potential if they’re determined to learn
something.”
“Mm-hmm,” he responded. “Abigail, if you want to do a job well, you have my full support.”
Abigail fanned herself with the notebook in her hand. “You talk as if I wouldn’t do it without your support. Even if I can’t do it well, you have no right to stop. me.”
Her words enraged Sean. “You really can’t get a good word out of your mouth, can you?”
“Did I say something wrong? Do you think that once a woman is married, she should stay at home. and take care of her family?” Abigail countered, questioning him.
He backed down immediately. “You’re right. I was wrong.”
Abigail felt that he was being dismissive, and her anger intensified. But then, she recalled that he was brought up by Cornelie. His mindset was likely heavily influenced by her. Except for the issue. of having children, where he refused to obey Cornelie, he probably followed her in most other aspects. “Your apology sounds perfunctory to me. Never mind, I don’t want to argue with you in this hot weather. Arguing would just make me even more furious,” she said, walking into another
store.
Only now did Sean realize that if she really wanted to argue, she could probably make the Earth rotate several more times with her arguments.
After Abigail finished arguing with the fabric supplier, she came out and saw him holding a bottle
of cold drinking water.
“You must be thirsty after all that arguing, right?” He handed her the drinking water. In reality, he
meant well, thinking that she must be parched after talking so much.
However, Abigail was still in a bad mood from the earlier argument. Feeling that his words sounded sarcastic, she became even more furious. “Just shut up your mouth, will you? Are you following me
