Abigail’s Second Life (Abigail and Sean) novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171 She Seems to Like You a Lot

As their morning run was about to conclude, Eric suddenly asked Abigail, “Did your grandparents ever tell you about your parents?”

“No. They probably didn’t want to make me sad, so they never talked about it. I didn’t ask either. It’s fine this way,” she replied while breathing lightly.

He nodded.

When she returned to the hotel lobby, Eric, who was outside, couldn’t help but frown.

Could it be that as her cousin, Sean hadn’t told her about her parents?

Sean was waiting for Abigail in the lobby. Through the glass, he saw Eric appearing contemplative outside.

As Abigail approached Sean, he asked, “You seem to have a lot to talk about with Eric. What did he say to you?”

“What does it matter to you? It’s almost New Year’s. Aren’t you going home?” Abigail wiped her sweat with the towel that was hanging around her neck.

Her face was flushed and her neck was rosy.

Sean followed her into the elevator before leaning against the wall and looking at her seriously. “Eric didn’t know you before, but suddenly, you’ve become close to him. Don’t you find that strange?”

“What’s so strange about it? Alana’s designs are good, so it’s normal for him to go through me to get his designs from Alana,” she said as she glanced at him with a tilted head.

In reality, she was starting to feel a bit suspicious about Eric. She admitted that she wasn’t particularly good at reading people and couldn’t understand why Eric was so interested in her

past.

However, Eric’s intrusion into her affairs was not something that Sean could meddle in either.

“Abigail, why are you so obstinate?” Sean was a bit helpless.

“I’m not obstinate. Stay out of my business,” Abigail said with a cold face.

Sean looked at her firmly. “As long as we’re not divorced, we’re still husband and wife. I don’t like how close you’ve become with Eric.”

Abigail sneered but didn’t say anything.

Her sarcasm was evident.

Sean didn’t let it bother him. He had grown used to her attitude.

During breakfast, Sean received a call from home.

Colby wanted to talk to Abigail, so Sean handed his phone to her.

“Grandpa.” Abigail greeted Colby warmly while holding a dumpling.

“You’re not coming home for New Year’s?” Colby’s voice was full of affection.

Abigail’s voice carried a hint of regret. “Yeah. It was agreed upon with the crew that we wouldn’t go home for New Year’s. Even well-known actors aren’t going home, so how could I request special treatment?”

In previous years, they always spent New Year’s together, even if they didn’t get along well.

He sighed. “All right. Integrity is essential in your line of work. Remember to eat well while you’re out, and don’t endure any hardships. If you need money, just ask that brat Sean.”

“I don’t need it,” she replied.

Sean leaned in and listened to the conversation. He looked at Abigail and raised an eyebrow, to which she pushed him away.

After chatting with Colby for a while, she handed the phone back to Sean.
