Chapter 275 It’s Just That the Villain Has Aged
Still, Ronaldo was feeling a little gossipy. For that reason, he frequently looked at the table where
Sean sat.
Sensing something was off with the situation, Cameron immediately went to the corner and made a phone call.
Within two minutes, the few guests in the restaurant were kindly escorted out by the servers.
Two guests remained, though, since Cameron wasn’t sure if he should ask the server to show Abigail and Ronaldo the door. Therefore, he approached Sean and asked, “What about Ms. Quinn and her guest?”
“Leave them,” Sean replied flatly. After that, he turned around and cast Lina a cold look. “I will ask Xavien to call an ambulance. Grandma, you should have just stayed at the Graham Estate if you are feeling unwell. I am a perfectly healthy young man. I can take care of myself.”
Then, he glanced at Lucy without a word. He turned around, planning to leave.
However, Lucy could feel her whole b*dy turn rigid because of his glance.
“You are still in love with Abigail, aren’t you?!” Lina suddenly raised her voice. Minutes ago, she was still restraining herself a little as there were guests in the restaurant. But now that all guests except for Abigail and Ronaldo were gone, she couldn’t be bothered to lower her voice.
Upon hearing her name suddenly get called, Abigail cursed in silence. Sh*t! Just
my luck!
“You think I don’t know? Something has currently gone wrong in her studio, and you, along with Kevin, are the ones bearing all the consequences for her. Just how much more money want to give to her and her grandmother?!” Lina expressed bitterly. Shortly after, she glared at
do Abigail, who looked wretched and confused. “If you don’t have what it takes to run a business, just
you go and work hard as an employee then! You and Sean are divorced, yet you still-”
“Cameron, what are you doing standing there?!” Sean questioned before she could finish speaking, his voice abruptly turning frosty.
Trembling in fright, Lucy immediately grabbed her bag and escaped without Cameron’s order.
“Lulu!” Lina yelled, attempting to stop her.
Cameron walked up to Ronaldo and gave him an extremely modest smile. “Mr. Fernandez, we have some private matters to deal with here, so why don’t you step aside for a while and allow me to take you to enjoy your meal at a nice restaurant right away? I can a*sure you that you will absolutely be satisfied.
“Well, since Mr. Graham has some family affairs to deal with here, I suppose we should just have
our lunch at another restaurant. Mr. Hopkins, there’s no need for trouble.” Abigail stood up.
Despite feeling a little bummed, Ronaldo still got up and nodded in agreement. “No problem. Let’s go, then.”
Yet, Lina stopped Abigail before she could walk out. “I’m warning you–keep pestering Sean, and don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
The muscle in Sean’s face tightened as he suppressed his anger.
Meanwhile, Cameron was sweating profusely. Without delay, he showed Ronaldo the door.
When there were only the three of them left in the restaurant, Abigail looked at Lina with an indifferent expression and said in an extremely calm tone, “I have no idea that eating in the same restaurant means pestering. Old Mrs. Graham, don’t you think you’re being too oppressive? You’re not the owner of this restaurant, so why can’t I bring my friends over for a meal? Is that illegal? Besides, Mr. Graham offers me a helping hand simply because he feels guilty for hurting my family!”
Knowing Abigail was feeling deeply wronged, Sean swiftly expressed his apology. “Ms. Quinn, shouldn’t have presumptuously interfered in your affairs. For that, I’m sorry.”
Upon hearing that, Lina looked at him with pain written all over her face, and tears welled up in her eyes. “So, you’re going to act cruelly toward me for the sake of an outsider? Is that it? I see it now. You won’t stop until you piss me off!”
Abigail ignored Lina, turned around, and planned to leave.
“I’m sorry. In the end, I still caused you trouble.” Sean apologized again from behind her.
However, Abigail didn’t respond and simply left with an icy expression.
As soon as she left, the coldness all over Sean faded away. He raised his hand to pinch his eyebrows and sat at the table without uttering a word.
“Sean… If you go along with my arrangement for today and have a nice meal with Lulu, I won’t give Abigail a hard time. I’ll pay no attention to her no matter how you help her. Marry Lulu and have a child with her if she’s compatible with you. What do you think? Are we good?” Ultimately, Lina didn’t dare to push Sean too hard.
Moreover, she wasn’t sure if it was her illusion, but she had a feeling that her grandson cared about Abigail more.
“I will not get married, and I will never change my mind, no matter how many more blind dates you set up. Feel free to make excuses for me to meet these heiresses if you aren’t afraid of offending others. I will just give them my attitude, though,” Sean answered, his gaze indifferent.
“Sean, do you want to drive me to an early grave? What’s so good about Abigail?! You both are
divorced, yet you still want to defend her? She’s the one who is incompetent and always relies on
men-”
“Grandma!” Sean suddenly slammed his palm on the table and sprung to his feet, interjecting her.
Upon looking at him up close, Lina realized that Sean’s eyes were bloodshot. At once, her heart twitched in pain, and tears streamed down her cheeks. “Are you seriously going to condemn yourself so much and disobey me for her sake?”
“I have always stood on the side of justice! Did you ever feel guilty for bullying Old Mrs. Quinn and causing her to be hospitalized? Why do you still have the nerve to keep making humiliating remarks at them?” Each word that escaped Sean’s l*ps hit the nail on the head.
“Previously, you weren’t guilt–stricken too, regarding the acupuncture incident conducted by the traditional medicine doctor either! I can’t believe you can truly keep hurting them with a clear conscience. Indeed, you are my Grandma, but at the same time, I also know that you are a wicked old lady. This makes me feel very disappointed and helpless.” With that, Sean stood up dejectedly and walked toward the restaurant’s door.
“Grandma, since you’re unrepentant, then let’s not see each other anymore. Right now, I’m terrified to see your face.” He walked away after saying that.
Lina was trembling all over.
Just then, Xavien took the doctor into the restaurant.
As for Cameron, who waited outside, he immediately stepped forward when he saw Sean come out. Lowering his head, he reported, “Ms. Quinn has left.”
Despite feeling slightly troubled, Sean hummed in response. Then, with his tone as cold as ever, he said, “Ask Xavien to take good care of Grandma.”
