Chapter 225 The Two Sides of Abigail
After spending time with Abigail, Lynette got to know her better. She was the type of person who kept her troubles to herself and never shared them with anyone. This often made her seem distant and cool. In fact, she had a personality quite similar to Josh’s.
In the blink of an eye, it was already May, and Abigail was still staying in the homestay. She had recently cut off all communication with the outside world, including Sean.
Meanwhile, Analise had been discharged from the hospital and was recovering at home.
One morning, as Abigail came downstairs, planning to take a walk along the country roads, she spotted a car parked in the homestay’s yard. A man was casually tossing car keys beside it. While she stood there in confusion, he looked up at her.
“Good morning, Ms. Quinn. Are you also on vacation here?” Sean greeted Abigail with a relaxed and cheerful tone.
Her face visibly darkened. “Are you spying on me?”
“Not really. I’ve invested here and came to check things out,” Sean explained, though he had indeed done some investigation. However, he found that he had conveniently invested in the local tourism industry in February this year. So, he came with a legitimate reason for work.
“Do you think I’ll believe that?” Abigail responded with a frosty tone.
Cameron, who was helping Sean with the luggage, quickly added, “It’s true. We invested in this project in February, but because there were a few holdouts causing trouble last month, no one from the company wanted to come. So, Mr. Graham had to come himself to a*sess the situation.”
“The more perfect the excuse, the more it seems premeditated,” Abigail replied with a cold smile, directing her words at Cameron, who then stood there like a wronged puppy in front of the car’s trunk.
When she saw him like this, she suddenly calmed down.
“Forget it,” she said, intending to ignore them and walk away.
Sean quickly caught up with her.
Abigail noticed he was well–prepared, as he was dressed in gray and white casual sportswear with sneakers. In contrast, Abigail wore a halter dress of her own design layered with a tight–fitted cardigan, and her long hair was pinned with a wooden hairpin. It was a beautiful vintage look.
Sean took a moment to admire her and said, “You look great in that outfit. Are you heading out for a morning walk? Have you had breakfast?”
“If I had known that you invested here, I wouldn’t have chosen this place,” Abigail retorted coldly.
Still, Sean was not offended. He walked alongside her and commented, “The scenery here is beautiful, and the air is refreshing. You won’t regret being here.”
Abigail remained silent and continued strolling along the village path leisurely.
On their path, they encountered an old lady whose eyes lit up when she saw Sean. “Is this Abby’s husband? He’s so handsome!”
Abigail felt a bit helpless. Gossip knew no age, after all.

“No, we’re just acquaintances,” she hurriedly answered, afraid Sean would say something careless.
“Even so, you
so, you should get to know him better. Such a handsome young man should not be taken for granted,” the old lady joked with a hearty laugh.
“We used to be a couple, but we broke up,” Sean suddenly said, shocking everyone.
He innocently turned to the old lady and said, “In her eyes, no matter how handsome you are, it’s not worth showing off. Could you teach me how to win over Abby?”
“You seem pretty familiar with them. Do you think they are easy to get along with?” Sean shifted the conversation, putting aside his teasing.
“Why?” Abigail raised an eyebrow.
“Remember the few stubborn holdouts I told you about? I’m just asking you about what they’re like. Sean’s tone was serious.
Abigail wondered. So, he really is here for work, huh?

here move things. I really don’t know much about the locals here,” Abigail replied.
