Chapter 255 Let’s Celebrate?
In a <b>casual </b>yet purposeful manner, Abigail <b>tapped </b>on the door to Kate’s office, leaning nonchntly against the frame as she observed Kate deeply absorbed in her tasks.
“Kate, got a moment after the day’s toil? Phase one of our partnership has flourished–it calls for merriment, wouldn’t you agree?”
Kate’s brow furrowed slightly at the address. She had gently corrected Abigail’s formality on numerous asions, yet Abigail persisted in her informality. With an internal sigh, Kate acquiesced with a resigned eptance.
However, an evening of celebration… Kate paused, pondering. She desired to confer with Eric.
In recent weeks, Eric had been exceedingly upied, arriving early and departingte from Davison Group.
George had even left Summer Estate to join him there. Kate refrained from prying–Davison Group’s. operations were vast and intricate, beyond her grasp, and Eric shielded her <b>from </b>certain matters.
Moreover, there were subjects Eric chose not to divulge to her.
Witnessing Kate’s hesitation. Abigail chuckled lightly. Thinking of your husband, perhaps? Ask him. then. I’ve long wished to treat you to dinner”
Abigail blinked, her face illuminated by a smile. “We owe it to you for affording Alpha Corporation this opportunity,”
<b>Kate </b>sighed, massaging her temples. She stole a nce at Abigail, then hesitated before speaking. “Hold on. let me speak with Eric.”
With that, Kate retrieved her phone and crossed over to the towering window to ce the call.
Meanwhile, Abigail reclined in her chair. In the fleeting moment <b>Kate </b>turned away. Abigail’s gaze sharpened. A subtle smirk graced her lips as she observed Kate’s silhouette,
“Ric, are you free this evening?” The call connected swiftly. Kate’s gaze softened, her voice tender.
At that instant, Eric sat in a speeding car, his countenance sombre and his presence stern and unyielding. Yet, upon hearing Kate’s voice, his features softened immediately. “Apologies, Kate, <b>official </b>matters demand my attention.”
He paused briefly before <b>speaking </b>warmly, “What’s on your mind?
Kate chuckled softly. “Nothing serious–just contemting dining with Abigail Take <b>care </b>of yourself <b>and </b>don’t exhaust yourself.”
Upon hearing Kate mention dining with Abigail, Ericvisibly tensed. He gripped the phone tightly, his gaze momentarily icy before softening gradually. Take care. Bring along a guard<b>.</b>”
Kate resumed “Vec Wie No need for concern

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Kate brought the call to a close.
Yet, as the conversation concluded, a deeper chill settled into the confines of the car. Eric pursed his lips, an oppressive presence enveloping him. Swiftly retrieving hisptop, he began typing with precise urgency, essing Abigail’s dossier.
With eyes narrowed, Eric scrutinised every detail, an icy countenance etched upon his brow.
“Have those monitoring Abigail observed anything untoward?” Eric inquired after a prolonged silence.
Lucas, stationed at the wheel, responded promptly. “No irregrities reported by our operatives, Abigail’s background appears <b>wless</b>.”
wless… Eric’s gaze lingered coolly upon Abigail’s wlessly altered visage in the photograph. Something about it unsettled him deeply.
Especially her increasing proximity to Kate recently, frequenting HN Studio and forging a closer bond
with Kate.
Eric tapped his fingers thoughtfully, his voice growing colder, “Intensify surveince on her. And triple the personnel observing my wife tonight at the restaurant.”
Lucas hesitated momentarily before asking instinctively, “Tripling surveince on your wife at the restaurant–what about our operations here tonight?”
They had critical matters to attend to!
