Abigail's Second Life novel Chapter 748

"If that's the case, then forget it. I've already lost over ten of my men before we could even start working together. What good would it bring?" Simond refused, wanting to keep Abigail's plan a secret.

While working with Sean would be great, he also needed to look out for her.

"If you don't want to work with me, then forget it. No need for all that talk." Sean's expression turned cold in an instant.

Unable to hold back, Abigail spoke up, "Are we just going to spend the day in the hotel?"

The investigation wasn't making any progress, and dragging it out like this wasn't a good idea.

"They can go back," Sean calmly said. Today was his date with Abigail, so why should they stay here and be third wheels?

Simond was only here to see the progress, and now that Sean had given the order to leave, he didn't stay for long either. Moreover, he was worried about staying and exposing himself to the way Kevin was behaving.

After Simond left with Kevin, Sean immediately turned his attention back to Abigail. "What do you want to eat, honey?"

Abigail handed him the hotel menu. "Take a look and see if there's anything you like."

Yesterday, she had specifically asked the hotel for ingredients and personally cooked, but today, she no longer had the enthusiasm for it.

As Sean carefully looked through the menu, her phone rang.

Sean looked at her. "Busy again?"

Abigail had saved the number under a client's name, but she remembered it was from Martin.

"I'm not sure. Let me take this call first. Choose something for me while I'm gone," she said, picking up her phone and walking into the corridor.

Sean continued to look at the menu, deep in thought. Both Kevin and Abigail seemed off just now, and the strangest thing was that Simond came with Kevin. If Kevin could bring Simond to the airport, wouldn't it mean that Simond had been here earlier and had come with Abigail? Clearly, they were connected in a way that he didn't know about.

Simultaneously, Abigail warily kept a lookout for Sean in case he suddenly left the room while whispering to Martin, "What is it?"

"Oh, I wanted to know when you would come back," Martin asked with concern.

Abigail felt that she should explain to him who exactly arrived at the John Research Institute, but she realized that it might not be a convenient time for him, so she could only answer, "Is everything okay on your end?"
