Abigail’s Second Life

Sean was stunned for a moment. She was putting on a ladylike act?

"Old Mrs. Graham obviously prefers gentle people, so I put on an act just to meet you. Whether we're compatible or not is not something that can be judged by elders at a glance. We have to spend time together to truly understand each other!" Irene blurted out in one breath.

Sean nodded. "You're right. I may be a bit reserved. Perhaps I should be more talkative."

Irene felt relieved upon hearing that.

After finishing his meal, Sean raised his hand to check the time. "It's getting late. I need to head back to the company."

"Irene, he's busy with work, so don't take it personally. I will keep you company for the meal." Lina was much kinder to Irene than she was to Abigail back then. "Okay." Irene smiled and agreed.

"Finish your meal, and then we can go. There's no need to worry. Oh, you can't finish all that, can you? Sorry for giving you so much." Lina offered her an out.

"I can't eat all of this. I'm sorry." Irene apologized uncomfortably.
