Chapter 367 Conflict
Meanwhile, the first thing Kevin did after returning to his hotel room was to kick off his shoes to inspect his foot. “You’re really cruel. You’ve flattened my
toes!”
Sean looked at him with a cold expression without saying a word.
“Say, you get jealous again and want to make things difficult for her. Why are you so conflicted?” Kevin asked, holding his legs with puzzlement written all over his good-looking face.
Sean sat on the couch, gazing out the window in silence like a melancholic and beautiful young
man.
After watching him for a while, Kevin suddenly chuckled.
“Are you insane?” Sean looked at him with a frown.
Kevin couldn’t help but laugh in amusement. “You’re the one who’s insane; you’re suffering from lovesickness. I just don’t understand. Why her? Only you could come up with the idea of coming all the way to Capitalis to go mountain climbing.”
Sean let out a snort. “Do you think I’m really here to go mountain climbing?”
“Of course not. You’re here to see if your wife has been stolen from you,” Kevin drawled.
Sean grabbed the pillow beside him and threw it at his face. “Just shut up if you can’t speak. properly!”
Kevin caught the pillow. “Pray tell, what did you come here for?”
“To look into some stuff.” Sean muttered.
Kevin moved closer to him. “Is this still about Vincent?”
“Don’t ask so many questions; it won’t do you any good. Just consider this a leisure trip,” said the
man.
Kevin curled his lips. “Fine. In that case, can I talk to Ms. Quinn when I’m free?”
Sean nodded in silent agreement. He had nothing to worry about when Kevin was with Abigail, but it was a different story when Abigail was with Eric.
Meanwhile, Abigail took Eric’s advice and dressed up a little for the party in the evening. Coming out of her hotel room, she happened to run into Kevin, who had come to ask her to join him for dinner.

“Are you heading out?” Kevin was surprised to see her carefully styled appearance.
Abigail nodded. “Yeah.”
Just then, the door to Eric’s hotel room opened; he was staying in the room opposite Abigail’s. “Are you ready?” he asked her. Then, seeing Kevin, he questioned, “Mr. Stewart, do you need something from her?”
Kevin wore a charming smile. “Are you two going out together?” Eric was dressed formally in a suit, looking as if he were going on a date.
“Yeah, we have something to do.” Eric didn’t explain where they were going.
Kevin rubbed his nose, asking, “Can I come along?”
