Sean was amused by her.
"I haven't committed any crime, no worries. I'm not afraid," Sean said with a chuckle, pinching her hand.
Abigail looked up at him. Her demeanor seemed somewhat naive yet endearing.
"What's up?" Sean's gaze deepened.
It was rare for Abigail to show this side. In the early days of their marriage, she often had such expressions; back then, she was unguarded and overly compliant.
Only now did Sean realize that it had been many years since he last saw her unguarded side.
"Nothing," Abigail softly replied.
Businesspeople always feel apprehensive when they encounter officials, worrying about whether they have done something wrong.
The next noon, Sean invited Kadrick to a moderately priced restaurant where a meal wouldn't exceed a thousand dollars, considering the other party's status.
When Kadrick arrived, he brought along a fair-skinned, beautiful girl.
The girl wore a beret, her long hair styled in big waves, and her entire outfit exuded a youthful, vibrant Chanel vibe.
"This is my niece, Callen Hinton. Callen, this is the legendary figure I told you about, Sean Graham," Kadrick was exceptionally polite.
Callen extended her hand to Sean with undeniable admiration in her eyes. "Hello, Mr. Graham. May I call you that?"
Sean was reluctant to shake her hand, but considering Kadrick's significant status, he still reached out, lightly touching Callen's fingers before quickly letting go.
"That's fine."
After speaking curtly, he turned to Kadrick. "Mr. Hinton, what can I do for you?"
"It's not about the case; it's just that my niece here needs your help," Kadrick said with a smile, sitting down.
Sean pulled out a chair and sat down.
Callen placed her LV bag on the adjacent chair, took out a tablet and pen, and looked at him expectantly. "Your experiences are truly fascinating, Mr. Graham. I want to adapt your story into a drama."
"Callen is a rising scriptwriter, Slow Melody Serenade. You must have heard of her, right?" Kadrick said, his eyes filled with pride.
Sean, not much of a drama watcher, was unaware.
Sean's expression turned cold. "What kind of public figure am I? I'm just a company owner. Why should I expose my wife, her friends, and my family to danger just because you want to make this film? When the fraud case is completely resolved, come find me then, and I might consider it!"
Callen tried to say something more but was stopped by Kadrick. "Oh, what would a young girl like you know about the dangers he faced? Let's just order first."
Sean handed them the menu.
In this ordinary restaurant, they even had to wash their own utensils.
After the meal, Sean paid the bill and left.
Back in his car, he was still somewhat angry and called a friend.
"Are you just giving out my number for fun?!" Sean exclaimed angrily, just a few days back in the country and he couldn't find peace!
"What happened?" the person on the phone asked.
"You gave out my number without knowing the other party's intentions?!" Sean continued to rebuke, adjusting his tie, his face tense.
"Just tell me what happened, and I'll get justice for you," the person tried to calm him.

Updates?...
I hope you get rid of this wicked girl, Callen, (she is not worthy of Sean or any of his extended family) and Mr Hinton and let Sean and Abigail live in peace … put the drama on someone else. Colby needs to enjoy his grandchild....
Sean and Abigail need a proper wedding including the handmade dress saved by Sean. Please don’t get them into another long separation and let them be happy with children as the story continues....
Thank you for the update...
Sean is not a mind reader, Abigail needs to be explain the whole story starting with Luna’s swearing her to secrecy regarding the child, the genetic issues and Martin’s assistance in stabilizing the child’s genes so he could be genetically tested. Abigail blames Sean for her situation but it’s due to her not being honest. They need to settle this, get married and have a child of their own....
