After a long moment of silence, Abbie spoke first. In a low voice, she said, "I was wrong just now. Don't be angry."
"I know that Chelsea is not at work. Is there anything else?" Harrison asked.
"The focus now is not whether to go to work or not, but your relationship."
Harrison asked in confusion, "What's wrong with our relationship? Is it a waste of your eyes? Or is it because you're not in a good mood?"
"Brother Harrison, people from all the families wanted to rope you in, but you were unwilling. That's why they wanted to keep you in the same way as their own family. You should know that, right?"
Harrison must know about this. It's indeed the first time I've heard of it.
According to Abbie's words, could it be that those who were interested in Harrison had selfish motives? If that was the case, then they definitely couldn't be together!
Harrison didn't say anything and continued to hold the pen in his hand.
Standing behind the desk, Abbie looked very anxious. She walked past the desk and squatted down in front of Harrison.
I was shocked by her sudden action. I thought she was doing this for some kind of indecent behavior, but I didn't expect that she just squatted down to hold Harrison's hand, and then looked up at him, which made me stunned.
I've always known that Abbie liked Harrison very much. She was about to go berserk because Harrison had kidnapped me and tried to destroy me. But I didn't expect her to be so humble as to squat down in front of Harrison.
That kind of humble look made me feel sad.
"Brother Harrison, if you continue like this, you'll definitely regret it in the future," Abbie said with a tearful tone.
Harrison looked down at her and said lightly, "What I have done has never been regretted."
"What's so good about her that you can do this? Aren't you worried that we'll unite to deal with you?"
"Is there anything else?" Harrison's tone suddenly turned cold.
What followed was a sudden silence. Just as I was thinking about how they were going to end the matter, Abbie suddenly stood up.
She walked to the door without saying a word. "I hope you won't regret it, Brother Harrison."
With that, Abbie completely vanished.
I looked back at Harrison, who was still sitting in his office chair. He was still turning the pen in his hand, expressionless.
Abbie's words were still ringing in my ears just now. I carefully considered every single word of hers, trying to find some flaws in them.
Although Abbie had attacked Harrison in the name of "I'm not at work", my intuition wasn't that simple, especially when she repeated Harrison's words again and again.
"What on earth can make Harrison regret it? Or if he is with me, will he definitely regret it in the future?"
"Aren't you going out yet? Are you going to work here?" Harrison came over at some point and stood at the door, looking at me.
When I stood up, my legs were numb, and I directly threw myself into his arms.
Harrison's low laughter sounded from above. I wanted to get up in shame and anger, but he stopped me. "It's good to stay here quietly for a while."
His voice softened, so did mine.
However, Abbie's words were still a mystery. After thinking for a moment, she asked tentatively, "What did Abbie mean just now?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Why do you say you regret it?" I asked.
