Chapter 207 I’m Worried About You

Lynette was happily chatting with Luna when her phone decided to make itself an annoyance.

When she saw that it was the restaurant’s general manager calling, she immediately told Luna, “I need

to take a call.”

As soon as she stepped outside the private room, her face turned sour as she answered the call.

“What’s the matter? You were supposed to stop them! Yet, here you are, disturbing my meal!”

However, when she heard the general manager’s explanation, she exclaimed, “What?! They want to

demolish the restaurant? Let them do it, and we’ll make them compensate the Pearsons for such an

outrage! Who does he think he is? I want to see how he plans to pull such a stunt!”

Abigail faintly heard her talking outside.

She turned her head and glanced at the private room door before asking Eric, “Is she okay? Why would

someone suddenly want to demolish the restaurant?”

Eric looked bewildered and replied, “I don’t know. You can ask her about it later.”

Josh remained silent throughout the meal and wisely didn’t bring up Abigail’s background. He acted as

though he was genuinely there to have a meal.

Luna wasn’t foolish as she finally connected the dots. It seemed that Eric’s care for Abigail on the set

wasn’t just because they were friends. Instead, it was because of someone with the family name

Pearson…

When Lynette returned to the private room, Abigail inquired, “Who wants to demolish

restaurant?”

your

This question caught Lynette off guard for a moment, but she quickly explained, “It’s nothing…

Someone is just making themselves a nuisance. It’s just an annoying troublemaker.”

Midway through the meal, the noise outside suddenly escalated.

Abigail couldn’t help but wonder if the annoying troublemaker Lynette had mentioned was barging the

door right now.

Just as she was thinking about it, the door to the private room was violently shoved open with a loud

bang.

Everyone inside was startled by such a sudden intrusion.

Four or five burly men in black suits barged in.

Abigail began to worry if Lynette had offended some dangerous individuals upon seeing them.

Nonetheless, her worries were assuaged when she noticed Cameron leading the way, followed by

Sean.

Luna, who had been on edge, burst into laughter upon seeing Sean.

Lynette shot daggers at Cameron and then at Sean.

“Sean, couldn’t you have sent a text or made a call? You know, like a normal person?” Abigail stood up

while furrowing her brow in displeasure.

Given the current situation, Abigail could tell that Lynette had gotten someone to block Cameron and

Sean’s way. As a result, they had entered the restaurant by force.

So, Lynette was probably taking revenge against Cameron for stopping her last time, which had

resulted in Sean getting dragged into their mess? Or… Did Josh and Eric give out warnings to the

staff?

“I initially wanted to surprise you, but someone interfered, Sean said before pausing momentarily when

he noticed Josh.

“What’s going on?” Josh’s expression turned cold as he questioned Lynette sharply.

Lynette retorted defensively, “I just had someone stop him… Who knew he would be so impolite and

barge in when he isn’t even welcomed?”

Sean walked up to Abigail and gently held her face in his hands while saying, “They wouldn’t let me

see you. So, I got worried.”

“Miss Pearson, is this a personal vendetta? Did you deliberately block us this time because I prevented

you from seeing Miss Pearson last time?” Cameron asked Lynette with a stern face.

Lynette immediately refuted, “No! Do you think I’m like you? I simply don’t like you people! What’s

wrong with that?!”

Sean fixed his gaze on her upon hearing her words.

She felt like her body had been drenched in ice-cold water, and it sent shivers down her spine.

“Mr. Graham, have you had dinner? If you haven’t, feel free to join us,” Eric stood up and asked in a

gentle tone.

“Are you full?” Sean didn’t answer him but turned to ask Abigail.

“Yeah. Abigail had no intention of continuing to have her meal here. She had hesitated earlier due to

social niceties. Now that Sean had made his grand appearance, she saw no reason to stay.

Luna immediately jerked to her feet and smiled at Lynette and the others while saying, “Thank you for

the hospitality. We’re quite tired from visiting all the tourist spots today. So, we’ll head

back to get some rest.”

“All right…” Lynette muttered nervously.

She couldn’t shake the feeling that Abigail seemed distant and unwilling to spend time with them.

She also worried that her actions against Sean might have angered Abigail.

Eric was about to say something, but josh shook his head gently.

After Sean left with Abigail, Lynette quickly apologized to Josh, “Josh, I didn’t expect things to turn out

like this.”

“We’ll have to think of another way to make her less resistant to us. How’s the investigation into Joan’s

matter going?” Josh asked Lynette calmly.

“It’s still ongoing,” Lynette rushed to reply.

Eric took a sip of his wine and said gloomily, “If Abigail hadn’t gotten lost all those years ago, Sean

would never have gotten the chance to marry her.

Josh patted his shoulder and consoled him, saying. We haven’t confirmed her identity yet.”

“It’s a pity that nothing was discussed tonight. You care too much about Abby’s feelings. Why can’t you

talk about Abby’s background when her friend is around? Luna is her best friend. She should have the

right to know about Abby’s background.” Eric’s tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction.

“Did you not notice her attitude tonight? We went to great lengths just to see her for a brief moment. If

we push her too hard, she’ll become even more averse to us, and we might not get another chance to

meet her,” Josh calmly explained.

“At the end of the day, we’re still back in square one!” Lynette couldn’t help but exclaim after letting out

a long sigh.

Eric was anxious, especially when he saw Sean being so intimate with Abigail.
