Chapter 274 Sean Is on a Blind Date
At noon, Sean was summoned to the restaurant by a call from Lina.
As soon as his tall figure appeared in the restaurant, he immediately drew the attention of many
women.
However, Sean looked as though he was oblivious to the stares. Taking Cameron with him, he walked toward the dining table where Lina sat and took his seat.
Meanwhile, Cameron stood silently behind him.
Lina glanced at Cameron before putting on a displeased look on her face. “Must you bring your a*sistant when you have a meal with me? It’s not like you’re here to talk about business affairs.”
“Since we’re here to have a meal, let’s start ordering.” Sean changed the subject, picked up menu on the side, and browsed through the food.
But after turning a page, a person with a faint floral fragrance sat beside him.
At once, Sean furrowed his brows and looked to his side.
the
Before him was a girl with long, silky hair wearing a white dress and holding a purse studded with pearls sitting at the dining table.
When Sean looked at her, she nodded slightly and greeted him in a tender voice. “Hi, Seanie. My name is Lucy Snyder.”
Her appearance was as pure as the driven snow. Her voice sounded like a trickling stream, and her aura exuded a pleasant vibe despite her not looking particularly beautiful.
“Do I know you?” Sean asked while looking at the woman expressionlessly.
Upon hearing that, Lucy turned to look at Lina with a slightly embarra*sed demeanor. Even so, she wasn’t angered by his derisory remark.
With a straight face, Lina explained, “Sean, this is Frank Snyder’s daughter. She just came back from studying abroad not long ago. She always called you Seanie when you two were still young, remember? Since she has yet to make new friends upon her return, I figured you could take her around to get her familiarized with the city after the meal.”
“Grandma, do I look like I’m very idle to you?” Sean questioned. Even though he had a smile on his face, his words were harsh.
“If you’re busy, arrange for her to join your company as your secretary. That way, not only can she get familiar with the environment, but it won’t delay your work, Lina said. Then, she turned around, smiled at Lucy, and added, “The chef in this restaurant has cooked for state dinners. You

must have missed the food at home after years of staying in Findella and having their Findellian cuisine.”
“Yes, I am. Besides, I have yet to taste the dishes made by a state dinner master chef. I can grab this opportunity and have a taste.” She looked as gentle as the autumn wind, her whole face appearing as clear as water.
Lina was extremely pleased.
As expected, such a graceful and beautiful young lady is indeed attractive.
Just as Sean dropped the menu, got up, and was about to leave, he met with Abigail and Ronaldo, who were entering the restaurant.
The two made eye contact.
When Abigail saw him, she was stunned for a moment and then nodded at him.
After that, when she saw the gentle young lady, she immediately understood what was happening at the table.
Upon seeing this, Cameron silently mourned for Sean.
This has got to be a joke! I can’t believe Mr. Graham is this unlucky! Judging from the look in Mrs. Graham’s eyes, I can tell she must have misunderstood the situation.
“Mr. Graham, what a coincidence!” Ronaldo greeted him with a smile. His smile grew profound when his gaze fell on Lucy.
“Let’s proceed to our table. Mr. Fernandez, you have to try the food in this restaurant. Their chef has cooked for state dinners and is well–known on the internet,” Abigail whispered to Ronaldo in a confident and graceful manner.
At first, Lina wanted to ridicule her.
However, Abigail’s aura made her feel a little unfamiliar. It was as though today was her first time meeting her.
Compared with someone like Lucy, a beautiful daughter of a humble family, Abigail’s superior- like aura was the sure winner.
“It was a pity that I didn’t have time to finish savoring the delicacies here last time because I was in such a hurry. Today, I have to take advantage of this opportunity and taste them all.” Ronaldo smiled as he walked toward the dining table.
With one walking in front and another walking behind, the two finally reached their table and took their seats by the window.
Lina watched Abigail warily for a long time. She felt extremely uncomfortable when she realized that Abigail didn’t spare them a single look.
“Grandma, since you like it here, why don’t you stick around and enjoy your meal with Miss Snyder? I shall take my leave first.” Sean stood up and left without looking back.
Cameron was surprised, for he thought Sean would change his mind and stay around to have lunch due to Abigail’s presence in the restaurant.
“Sean!” Lina rose to her feet.
As her voice was loud, both Abigail and Ronaldo heard her shout too.
Fortunately, because it was a high–end and customer–limiting restaurant, the shout didn’t attract the attention of the guests at the other tables besides Abigail’s.
Sean calmly glanced in Abigail’s direction, only to discover that she didn’t even raise her head.
So, she won’t mind even if I really am on a blind date today?
“Cameron, remember to inform the restaurant’s owner that whatever the guests at this table ordered will be on me.” Sean left the table without looking back after he finished giving his order.
At this moment, Lina suddenly placed her hand over her chest and said, “Sean… Y–You really are pissing me off…”
