Chapter 132 Anthony Is Hiding His True Nature
Neither Abigail nor Anthony noticed Sean nearby.
Anthony’s voice was joyful as he said. “Don’t be so polite. I’ve also invested quite a bit in this series. I hope it gets good reviews when it’s released, of course.”
Abigail had gained a lot from today’s exchange, so she looked relaxed. “Let me treat you to dinner
sometime.”
“In that case, you owe me two meals. Tomorrow night, you must treat me to some dinner with a lively atmosphere,” he said, heading toward the steps at the hotel entrance. “Come. I’ll drive you back. I didn’t drink today, so you don’t have to worry.”
“Um, I can take a cab by myself.” Her voice was uncertain as she followed behind him.
As he slipped his fingers into the keychain, he skillfully spun the keys. “Are you being polite again,
little junior?”
She smiled somewhat awkwardly, unable to decipher his thoughts. Yet, she could not treat someone who had helped her this way with such cold indifference. Just as she was about to follow
him to the parking lot, she saw a familiar Bugatti suddenly halt before him.
Anthony quickly retreated several steps, clutching his keys to his chest, visibly frightened.
Likewise, Abigail was also shocked. Her heart was pounding rapidly, and her blood was running hot. She was stunned briefly before rushing toward Anthony, grabbing his arm, and inspecting him.
“Are you okay?”
At that moment, his eyes appeared particularly clear, with a hint of disbelief. When he heard her voice, he barely regained his composure. “I-I’m fine.”
, Abigail glanced at Sean, who sat in the car with a cold, icy glare, and anger surged within her. Eventually, it turned into indifference. Subsequently, she turned her gaze back to Anthony and
spoke gently, “Let’s go.”
Anthony nodded and patted his chest. With a slightly aggrieved tone, he said, “I was terrified. Abby.
Why does he seem like he has a grudge against me?”
She always felt that he was hiding his true nature behind a facade of innocence, but considering
that Sean had almost knocked him down, it was normal for him to be scared.
As they took a few steps forward, Se in honked the car horn loudly. The piercing horn made the anger that Abigail had suppressed surge back up. She endured her irritation and spoke to Anthony in a friendly tone, “You go ahead to the parking lot. I’ll talk to him.”
After Anthony glanced at Sean, he asked in a low voice, “What’s your relationship with him?”
“Nothing special. We just have some unresolved business conflicts.” She hastily found an excuse.
Anthony, somewhat skeptical, nodded and patted her shoulder. “Talk to him nicely. After all, you’ll still be working in this industry, and it’s not good to provoke him.”
“I know. Thanks for the reminder,” she replied, then walked toward Sean.
