Chapter 123 I Won’t Play House With You
After handling the mess in the production team, Kevin took a break and noticed that the assistant
working at L.Moon had posted something on her Facebook. He thought it was related to L.Moon’s
announcements but was surprised to find a photo posted by the assistant when he clicked on it.
With a mischievous grin, he saved the photo to his gallery and quickly messaged Sean. ‘I have a
valuable picture. Add 1.5 million to the investment amount, and I’ll send it to you.
Sean replied with a question mark.
This response irritated Kevin, so he sent a flurry of messages. ‘While you two ran off, I had to clean up
the mess. How dare you give me a question mark!”
Sean wrote, ‘Just send the picture, and we’ll discuss the price based on
1. it.
Kevin thought Sean was acting difficult and replied, ‘I’ll send it later; I have something to attend to.
He wanted to make Sean anxious, but Sean did not follow up.
Meanwhile, the renowned Director Lewis unexpectedly posted on social media in the afternoon,
announcing the costume design team for his new drama to be handled by L.Moon Studio.
This decision was reached after discussions between Abigail, Anthony, and Lewis. They took
advantage of L.Moon trending on social media and used it to promote their upcoming project. Even the
official account of Star Media, which rarely posted, shared the announcement after L.Moon Studio did,
and they specifically tagged Alana’s Instagram account,

After giving instructions for the upcoming work to Luna, Abigail planned to go home to take care of her
grandmother and prepare for her participation in the program. When she left L.Moon

Studio, she received a message from Anthony.
‘Free tonight?
She pursed her lips, hesitated while looking at the message, and replied, ‘Only if it’s urgent. Otherwise,
I have to look after my grandmother‘
After she got in the car, he replied to her message, ‘Director Lewis said he wants to discuss some
details about the costumes with you. Since this is your first time designing costumes for a drama, he’s
concerned that there might be difficulties during the production.’”
Since it was work–related, Abigail could not refuse his request. When she returned home, Analise was
already waiting by the door. As she exited the elevator, Analise immediately shouted into the house,
“Abigail is back!”
Hearing Analise’s voice and seeing her standing by the door with eagerness in her eyes, Abigail could
not help but feel a warm sensation in her heart. She hurriedly approached her grandmother. “I’m back,
Grandma.” She grabbed Analise’s hand, her eyes filled with joy.
Analise held onto her hand tightly, and her wrinkled face adorned an uncontrollable smile. “Welcome
back.” She held Abigail’s hand as they entered the house together, closing the door and stating, “Sean
also returned from his business trip today. I’m planning to prepare a hearty dinner with Julie. You
should have a meal with him.”
Just then, Abigail looked up and saw Sean sitting on the couch, gently pinching the garlic sprouts in a
basket on the coffee table.
The smile in her eyes faded a bit. “I have something to do tonight. You guys go ahead and eat. I’ll have
dinner with you tomorrow, Grandma.”
At that, Analise immediately patted her hand and said disapprovingly, “You’ve been away on a business
trip for so long and separated from Sean for so many days. Yet, you’re still busy with something! Can’t
whatever it is wait until tomorrow? You mustn’t go. Have a good meal with him. and talk privately as a
couple.”
“Grandma, it’s important. I must follow the boss‘ arrangements while I make a living under someone
else’s control.”
Just as Abigail finished speaking, she heard Sean let out a cold snort. Analise’s hearing was not sharp,
so she did not catch it.
“Well, even if it’s important, you should eat before you go. How can you be so fixated on work?
Moreover, it’s already evening and off–work hours,” Analise chattered as she hunched her back and
walked into the kitchen. “Julie, let’s start cooking now. Let Abigail have a few bites before she goes
to work.”

she still wanted to make Abigail happy.
After placing her bag in her room, Abigail returned to the living room and sat beside Sean to join. him in
preparing garlic shoots. The man remained silent, and so did the woman. They quietly sat together as
each busied themselves.
Analise sensed something was amiss. At that moment, Abigail suddenly realized something and asked
Sean, “Did your business trip go smoothly?”
“Didn’t I report to you daily?” he replied nonchalantly.
His response left her momentarily speechless. She regretted bringing up the topic as she realized that
he was probably planning how to make her apologize for the situation with Joan.
Analise did not want to meddle in the argument between the couple, so she went to the kitchen and
considerately closed the door.
Sean remained silent, and Abigail did not say anything either. Finally, he broke the silence as he
rubbed his fingers together. “You’re pretty fast. Afraid I’ll interfere with your plans for L.Moon?”
She replied calmly, “I don’t want you to interfere like last time by pressuring others to back out of
our contract.”
He glanced at her silently.
“I’m going to your house tomorrow,” she stated matter–of–factly.
He sneered. “I won’t play house with you tomorrow. I’ve got work.”
