The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 152 Six Months as a Caretaker

Laura hadn’t even left the production when a new actress came for an audition.

They ultimately settled on a relatively unknown actress with high recognition. It was said that she didn’t

cost much, and her total compensation was less than one hundred thousand.

The actress had very clean features, unlike Laura, who relied heavily on a skilled makeup artist to

achieve her stunning appearance.

She followed Abigail’s styling instructions completely and was even given a stack of historical.

materials by Luke.

Lewis gave her a week to thoroughly study the script and the books.

Abigail stepped out of her dressing room and stood by the door, watching the young actress engrossed

in reading the script. S ouldn’t help but think that the girl, though young, was very diligent and would

surely shine ie future.

She then went to Eric’s dressing room.

Eric’s character was a handsome one, requiring meticulous attention to detail to capture the

essence of the era.

Based on his makeup, Abigail carefully selected his costumes.

“Miss Quinn?” Eric suddenly called out.

They had never spoken before, so it surprised Abigail to hear Eric call her by name,

Abigail stood beside a row of costumes. She turned slightly to look at him and asked, “Do you have any

specific requirements for the outfits?”

Upon hearing this, Eric smiled brightly. “It’s not about the costumes. I wanted to ask if you would add

me on WhatsApp.”

Abigail’s expression turned to one of surprise. After a moment, she nodded. “Alright.”

Well, he’s also a potential client, after all. Who knows if he ends up winning an Oscar in the future?

Designing clothes for him then could really elevate L.Moon’s reputation to a whole new level.

After becoming friends on WhatsApp, Eric returned to the script. “I’ve invested in a production. Next

time, I’ll invite you to design costumes for the project I invest in.”

“Alright, then. Thank you,” Abigail replied with a hint of a smile.

Eric’s lips curled slightly.

The makeup artist shot him a surprised look but quickly composed herself.

Abigail moved from one dressing room to another, meticulously coordinating costumes for everyone,

even the supporting roles.

The new actress’ talent and dedication made shooting the indoor scenes in Millstone wrap up quickly.

The crew moved on to shoot on location.

Abigail, too, went along with then

Sean received her call, and his voice was filled with discontent. “How long has it been since you’ve

been home?”

Abigail counted-it was close to half a year.

“I’ll probably go home for the New Year,” she reluctantly replied.

With three months until the New Year, they were about to head to Ragos. November was the season.

film scenes of a snowstorm.

“Abigail…”

“You can’t influence my decisions, Sean,” Abigail cut him off.

They had communicated frequently during this time, but Abigail remained unyielding.

Sean pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth, his eyes showing a cold glint. “You haven’t

been home for half a year, and you haven’t seen our grandparents. Are you really planning to throw

yourself completely into work?”

“I’m putting all my effort into my work, thanks to you,” Abigail said sarcastically.

“Fine. You’re really not coming back?” Sean gritted his teeth.

“Yes.”

“Where are you going for location shooting?”

“I’m going to Ragos to shoot a snowstorm,” Abigail answered without hiding anything.

Sean raised an eyebrow. “I’ve been your caretaker for the house for half a year, cleaning and

maintaining the place, and you don’t care at all. Fine, then. Don’t bother coming back for your

down jacket.”

“No, just leaving the house empty is fine. I can easily hire a cleaner later, and it’ll only take me two

hours to come back for my down jacket…” Abigail felt more and more exasperated as she spoke.

Sean even forbade her from retur

hhome to get her down jacket.

“I’m now responsible for the house. If you’re leaving, just buy a new down jacket!” Sean declared

coldly.

Alas, Abigail had no intention of buying a down jacket. After all, would a store-bought one be as warm

as the one she had personally made?

“What exactly do you want?” she asked Sean, her voice low.

“Grandpa wants you to come home. You weren’t there for any of the festival celebrations. Are you

really going to deeply disappoint the elderly?” Sean’s tone held displeasure.

Abigail ran a hand through her hair. “I need to discuss it with the director.”

“Can’t your dear Anthony approve it?” Sean sneered, to which Abigail chuckled. “Why are you so

sarcastic?”

“I’ll be waiting for you at home,” Sean said, then promptly hung up the phone.

Abigail held her phone, feeling a headache coming on. She turned to leave her room to talk to Lewis

about delaying her departure by two days. However, she was startled by Eric leaning against

her door frame.

“How long have you been here?” Abigail asked. Thankfully, they hadn’t discussed

during their phone call just now.

“Not long. What’s up? Is your family pressuring you to go home?” Eric was referring to Sean, her so-

called cousin.

Abigail nodded in response.

“I’m going home for three days too. I’ll talk to the director. Then, we’ll all have three days off,” Eric said

in a polite tone. He straightened up and was about to leave.

Abigail pressed on. “You came to find me. Is there something you need?”

“I’d like to have some personalized everyday clothing tailored at L.Moon. What do you think? It’s quite

chilly in Ragos, and I haven’t found suitable winter attire yet,” Eric said warmly to Abigail.
