Chapter 178 I Can’t Sleep if Abby Gets Angry
Abigail’s entire body turned cold.
In an instant, she thought of how Sean had threatened her with Eric’s future. His whereabouts were secretive, and he was financially supporting Joan. As long as he didn’t want anyone to know, no one would find out.
And this time, Abigail didn’t know if it was intentional on his part.
Her mind was in turmoil. She suspected Sean, but she didn’t want to accuse him without
evidence.
Sitting down in her office after putting down her phone, Abigail furrowed her brow, and her dissatisfaction with Sean reached its peak.
Just then, her phone rang.
Upon seeing that it was a call from Sean, Abigail stared at it but didn’t answer.
He made dozens of calls, but she didn’t pick up any of them.
Finally, it was her assistant who walked into her office with the phone, looking troubled. “Mr. Stewart is calling; he said he’ll come over if you don’t answer.”
Abigail refused without thinking. “Don’t answer.”
The assistant held the phone to her ear for a while and then said, “Mr. Stewart said if you don’t answer, Mr. Graham will come in person.”
The assistant also read the online news.
Anyway, she thought that Sean was pursuing Abigail, and she didn’t quite understand the current state of their relationship.
“Just tell them to try if they dare.”
With that, she slammed her notebook on the table with force and made a loud bang, frightening her assistant, who hurriedly left the office.
Having the call from Kevin disconnected, Sean looked helpless. “Abigail isn’t even paying
attention to us.”
For Sean, resolving this matter was a piece of cake, but he had ulterior motives. He wanted to publicly announce their relationship to the world. Even though he knew she was angry, he still called her in hopes that this call could fulfill his wish.
“She’s angry,” Sean replied while knowing for sure that she was furious this time.
She must think that nothing good would happen every time she encountered him.
“What are you planning to do? This situation leaves room for Eric to take advantage,” Kevin suggested.
“Now that she won’t even answer my calls, you can go back for now,” Sean said.
He didn’t want to give up this opportunity just because Abigail didn’t answer his calls. He still had the fantasy of talking to her in person, convincing her, and publicly announcing their
relationship. Then, he wouldn’t feel uncomfortable about other men around her just because they
were cousins.
After work. Abigail didn’t go to the studio but instead lay on the couch in her office while lost in thought.
She just wanted to focus on her designs and didn’t want to be involved in these
messy affairs.
Sean waited for Abigail at her rented apartment in Pendorf the whole night, but she didn’t return.
The dinner on the dining table had gone cold. He reheated it, but it turned cold again…
By daybreak, Sean, with an unsatisfactory expression on his face, looked at the brightening sky outside. He sat up.
He picked up his phone and checked the time.
It was almost 8.00AM.
