Chapter 31

It turned out to be a call from Ana lise. Instinctively, Abigail looked carefully at Sean. When their gazes met, her troubled yet expectant look was visible to

the man.

Abigail wanted to urge him, but after parting her lips, she didn't say anything in the end.

"Grandma..." Turning around and leaving, Abigail answered the call and closed the door to the office.

"Abby, have you picked Sean up?" Ana lise inquired.

The sky was getting dark. When the lights in the house turned on, Ana lise's eyesight would get even worse. She didn't want Abigail to know about her eyes in case Abigail got worried as well.

Now, her only wish was to see Abigail getting along well with Sean, but she didn't know if she could have a chance to meet Abigail's and Sean's child in person.

Her thoughts were wandering, and Ana lise finally came to her senses after Abigail called her a few times.

"Huh? What did you say?"

"I said, Sean is in a meeting, so I'll have to wait a little. Grandma, if you're hungry, go ahead and eat first. You don't have to wait for us." Abigail glanced at the time.

She didn't know when Sean would be done with work, or to be exact when he would be done with giving her trouble.

No matter what, even if she had to knock Sean unconscious, she would drag him home to meet Ana lise.

"It's okay. I'm not hungry. I'll wait for you two so that we can eat together. Take care on your way back," Ana lise reminded Abigail.

"Got it, Grandma." Abigail nodded. She thought of something, then hastily
