    Sean looked at Abigail with a faint smile on his lips.


    She felt uneasy under his scrutiny and furrowed her brow. “Do you need anything else?”


    “Even if you don’t say anything. I’ll still go after her. His eyes remained calm, but an unmistakable air of


    determination surrounded him.


    “Ronaldo is her cousin. If you go after her, I might as well stop the deal with him. I’ll have to bring his


    pearls to him and plead for clemency,” she huffed.


    After a brief moment of contemtion, he asked, “Is Anthony in a rtionship with her?”


    Abigail had to admit that Sean had a shrewd mind. “I don’t know if they’re in a rtionship. What does


    it have to do with me?” she replied nonchntly.


    “While


    you think it doesn’t concern you, she views you as a threat. How does Anthony feel about. you?” he


    asked calmly. It was an unexpected turn of events for him to find himself discussing another man’s


    feelings for her in such a calm manner.


    “I don’t think we’re close enough for us to discuss this,” she dered, cing her pen down and


    casting an unpleasant nce in his direction.


    “Your ‘like’ on that fanfiction about us on Twitter, without any rification, left me pondering for four


    days.” Sean sounded rather aggrieved. “After all, it was quite… steamy, and we were once married. I


    couldn’t help but think about it.”


    “Don’t keep bringing up the past! You didn’t need toe here to tell me about your thoughts. Do you


    think I have that much free time? Besides, there’s no need to rify such matters. Even when


    celebrities mistakenly like something, they don’t make official statements. Let the fans think what they


    want; it’s their enjoyment,” Abigail exined, restraining her frustration.


    In fact, not rifying was the best course of action. rifications often implied guilt.


    “That means we’d be shipped as a couple. You don’t mind that?” His mood lifted slightly. He enjoyed


    seeing fanfiction about them trending on Twitter daily.


    “You know well that in such situations, it’s best to leave the fans to their imagination. Making official


    rifications might seem like making mountains out of molehills.”


    She longed to scream from the mountaintops that she had nothing to do with him. Unfortunately, even


    the most renowned celebrities turned a blind eye to their fans’ fantasies. about their romantic


    rtionships with other people.


    He nodded, acknowledging her point. “You’re right.

    Taking a deep breath, sheposed herself. “Mr. Graham, could you please return to your work now?


    I’m really quite busy.”


    “Of course,” he replied, standing up.


    Just as Sean took a couple of steps, Abigail stopped him. “Please, don’t go after Lacey. Both Mr.


    Booker and I are part of the same industry, and we often cross paths. Besides, she’s Ronaldo’s


    cousin.”


    He turned back to look at her. “You’re quite protective of Anthony, but he might not appreciate your


    efforts.”


    “We’re both businesspeople. When ites to business, emotions don’t have a ce,” she stated


    coolly.


    With her putting it that way, he had nothing more to worry about. He was only concerned that she


    would feel ufortable. After all, she had a good rtionship with Anthony. Still, for the sake of her


    business, she had to endure such grievances.


    “Don’te to my office for no reason in the future. I don’t care about fans pairing us up, and it’ll be


    even more annoying if someone takes pictures of you deliberatelying here,” Abigail reminded as


    Sean was about to leave.


    His jovial mood soured again, and he left without saying a word.


    She was about to resume her work when a call came from Anthony. She stared at her phone for a


    while before finally answering. “Is there something you need, Mr. Booker?” Her voice was as crisp as


    ever, devoid of any personal emotions.


    “Lacey went over to your office, right? You don’t have to care about what she said. She’s


    straightforward and often speaks without thinking. I apologize on her behalf,” he expressed


    remorse.


    She pursed her lips before chuckling and said, “I understand how a young woman can feel insecure at


    the beginning of a rtionship, Mr. Booker. You just need to rify things with her. There’s no need for


    you to call and exin. I wouldn’t want her to jump to conclusions again, wouldn’t you agree?”


    Anthony remained silent.


    Just as Abigail was about to end the call, Anthony said gloomily, “I chose her because thepany


    isn’t doing well. There are many things I can’t openly share with you, but you’ve always been an


    important junior of mine.”


    “Mr. Booker, that’s in the past. I understand the challenges of running a business. You have your


    difficulties and your decisions. In any case, I hope yourpany continues to thrive. I have a lot of


    designs to work on, so I won’t linger for idle chat Her voice sounded light and pleasant, but her face


    remained expressionless.

    his choice. His pursuit of fame and sess was his decision, just as it was her choice to transition from


    being friends to acquaintances with him.
