Chapter 248 Don’t Embarrass Yourself
He was simply sitting there to enjoy his meal, but that attracted the attention of every female in the entire restaurant. Even the servers who received strict training for this high–standard hotel blushed when they served him.
While researching Abigail, she had paid special attention to Scan, but there were very few videos of him online. Due to his out–of–the–world gorgeous looks, she thought that his pictures were post–edited. Surprisingly, he was better looking in person than in pictures.
Sensing her staring at himself, Sean raised his gaze suddenly and swept his eyes over her coldly. Immediately, Kelly looked down and bit her lip as she fluttered her lashes slightly, trying her best to display her alluring self to him.
The edge of his lips hooked upward just a little into a lopsided smirk tinged with sarcasm, and Josh was unhappy when he caught the hostility in his eyes.
During the long wait for Eric, Josh decided to follow Sean when the latter went to the washroom. “Kelly, excuse me,” he said softly to her and hurried after Sean.
In the washroom, Sean was leisurely washing his long, knuckled hands under the tap, exuding a cold air around him that deterred others from getting close.

“Your family isn’t so powerful in this city that I have to get my schedule approved by you. As for Abigail, she has never thought of herself as a Pearson, and you guys are the ones flocking to please her. If you go apologizing to her after this, I’m afraid she’ll be disgusted by you.” As though Josh was nothing in his eyes, Sean did not display a single shred of emotion when he spoke.
