Abigail’s Second Life (Abigail and Sean) novel Chapter 314

Chapter 314 Cameron Listens to You

Luna had been furious, but after hearing that, she deflated like a balloon.

“Why do you think that Lacey woman was so hostile toward you?” Luna held Abigail’s hand and asked with a frown.

Abigail’s brows creased as she thought about it. Moments later, she commented, “It probably has something to do with Anthony. He was all dressed up. Doesn’t that signify they’re on a date?”

Luna rolled her eyes. “I’m speechless.”

She finally understood the situation. If Anthony had been on a date with Lacey, the latter would have been hostile toward Abigail because of how well Anthony treated her.

While they were studying, Anthony took very good care of Abigail. All their classmates said he liked her. Lacey wouldn’t have had to dig very deep to find out about that.

Meanwhile, Abigail paid no mind to this.

The next day, soon after Abigail came into the office, her assistant came to say there was a visitor.

As soon as Abigail’s assistant finished speaking, the door to the office flew open.

“Miss, you can’t enter-

“It’s fine, Abigail cut her assistant off

Abigail’s assistant glanced at Lacey. She quelled her dissatisfaction and exited the office in silence.

“Are you here for a visit, or do you wish to place an order, Miss Fernandez?” Abigail stood up with a polite smile on her face.

Lacey sat on the couch and studied the office before looking at Abigail. “You should know that I don’t like you.”

“Yeah. I picked up on that last night,” Abigail calmly responded. She was startled by Lacey’s

bluntness.

“I figured you weren’t stupid. Do you know why I hate you?” Lacey crossed her legs and tilted her head upward as if she owned the place.

I’m guessing it’s because of Anthony,” Abigail deduced.

Lacey cocked her eyebrows and declared domineeringly, “I know you two have had a good relationship ever since your schooling days. Even though you’re both working now, he’s still very protective of you and keeps helping you. I don’t like that. But, when it comes to work, you can’t be

of any help to him. He needs my family more, so that’s why he chose me. I’m sure you know when to give up. Since you’re busy creating rumors about you and Sean, just focus on that. Stop contacting Anthony.”

Abigail realized Lacey had come to mark her territory.

“Anthony and I have always been nothing more than business partners. Don’t overthink it, Miss Fernandez. If something could have happened between us, it would have happened by now, don’t you think?” Abigail responded with a nonchalant smile.

“You’re not in a relationship with him because you like being surrounded by men. Be it my cousin, or him, or even others like Sean Graham and Eric Davidson, aren’t they all your knights in shining armor? Truth be told, I despise women like you. I’ve seen more than my fair share of two- faced b*tches like you in college.” Lacey had a look of scorn and derision on her face.

Abigail was about to speak when the door to the office opened again.

Sean stood in the doorway. An icy aura emanated from him.

Abigail’s assistant stood by the door. She was a little worried that Abigail would chide her for not stopping Sean.
