Chapter 398 Provoking Sean
Kelly hurried over to Sean after getting out of the car.
“Let’s go,” she said, beaming with enthusiasm.
Sean gave a nod, keeping his composure.
Josh observed Kelly’s overly friendly attitude toward Sean and couldn’t help but feel she was. straying from her original intentions. Nonetheless, he refrained from saying anything. After all, Sean hadn’t objected to Kelly becoming closer to him either.”
The three of them entered the restaurant.
Sean immediately spotted Abigail. At the moment, Ronaldo seemed unusually cheerful. He was laughing so much while talking to Abigail that he was practically grinning from ear to ear.
The hands that had been resting at Sean’s side clenched slightly, but he quickly withdrew his gaze in indifference.
He took a seat at the table across from Abigail, who saw him and felt that it was quite a coincidence.
Ronaldo waved his hand to get Sean’s attention. “Mr. Graham, long time no see.”
Sean nodded slightly in response.
Ronaldo noticed that Sean didn’t look at Abigail. Moreover, he seemed particularly aloof. Could it be that the two of them have truly ended things?
Even Ronaldo, with his gossip-loving heart, could sense it. Naturally, others also picked up on it.
Kelly was inwardly delighted. Still, she had a facade to maintain.
“Ms. Quinn is here too. Mr. Graham, aren’t you going to say hello?”
Sean looked at her calmly and replied, “Why should I say hello?”
Josh cleared his throat, saying, “Let’s order.”
The conversation was interrupted, and Kelly didn’t say much. She was just glad to see Sean’s change in attitude as she had successfully achieved her goal. She guessed that after Sean’s recent visit to Capitalis, things between him and Abigail had completely fallen apart.
Considering the challenges L.Moon and Abigail would soon face, coupled with Sean’s apparent detachment, she was positively gleeful.

The two sides behaved as if they were complete strangers.
Abigail looked at the menu for a while and asked Ronaldo, “How about trying the abalone?”
“I’m not sure if it’s good, but you can go ahead and order it,” Ronaldo said, now quite curious. about what was going on between Abigail and Sean. His gossip-loving heart was becoming harder
to contain.
“The lobster is also good,” Luna chimed in. “There’s also the signature duck…”
Luna ordered a series of dishes.
Abigail handed the menu to the waiter.
After the waiter left, Ronaldo lowered his voice and leaned in to ask Abigail, “What’s going on between you and Sean?”
Abigail remained calm and asked, “Why do you ask?”
Ronaldo looked at her with a puzzled expression. “He’s having dinner with another woman, yet he’s so indifferent to you…”
“I have no relationship with him. Who he has dinner with is none of my concern. Don’t jump to conclusions,” Abigail replied calmly.
Ronaldo was utterly bewildered. After a moment, he said. “You’re not jealous? You had to have married him because you liked him…”
“Stop!” Luna interrupted him.
To her, Sean was pursuing Abigail. Yet, it was clear that he seemed to have given up. Still, she had to admit that if he ended up with Kelly, she would genuinely lose respect for him.
As the meal concluded, Luna went to settle the bill. At Sean’s table, Josh also got up to pay.
Abigail browsed her phone while seated, and Ronaldo suddenly spoke up, “Ms. Quinn, can I pursue you? Mr. Copper seems so affectionate with his girlfriend, which makes me quite envious.”
“What’s gotten into you?” Abigail turned to him, unimpressed. His words lacked any hint of
romance.
Ronaldo was deeply wounded. “Why are you so harsh? You’ve broken my heart.”
“Let’s go Abigail sensed Sean and Kelly’s gaze from the neighboring table. So, she stood up immediately.
Ronaldo was deliberately causing trouble.

“Ms. Quinn, are you really not going to consider my offer? I have a lot to offer. I’m young, healthy, and wealthy. I own a seafood farm and a variety of pearls. If we’re together, all of this will be yours!” Ronaldo continued.
Abigail’s lips curled up in amusement. “That does sound quite appealing. I’ll give it some thought.”
Abigail knew exactly what Ronaldo’s intentions were. She playfully bantered with him.
Sean didn’t know whether their banter was genuine, but he still found the conversation grating.
Regardless of whether Abigail was only saying those things in jest, he realized that he refused to allow her to establish friendly relations with any man except him.
The two of them stepped into the elevator.
Abigail stopped smiling. “Who are you trying to provoke?”
“Well… I really dislike Kelly. If Sean were to choose Kelly just because he couldn’t have you… It’s actually rather revolting.” Ronaldo said. “She’s too calculating. She even smiled at me at the entrance, probably thinking she’s so beautiful. She acts like everyone around her is her lapdog.”
Abigail couldn’t help but chuckle. “But she is actually quite pretty.
“I’ve seen many beautiful women; she’s just passable and overly fake,” Ronaldo said dismissively. fanning himself.
“Congratulations on not being swayed by beauty, Abigail said with a smile.
She couldn’t help but wonder about Sean. Did he really think Kelly was attractive? Or perhaps his grandmother approved of Kelly, and he was simply following his grandmother’s wishes to be with
her?
Although she was inadvertently influenced by his presence, she quickly shoved these complex thoughts aside.
