hapter 132 Anthony Is Hiding His True Nature
Neither Abigail nor Anthony noticed Sean nearby.
Anthony’s voice was joyful as he said. “Don’t be so polite. I’ve also invested quite a bit in this series. I
hope it gets good reviews when it’s released, of course.”
Abigail had gained a lot from today’s exchange, so she looked relaxed. “Let me treat you to dinner
sometime.”
“In that case, you owe me two meals. Tomorrow night, you must treat me to some dinner with a lively
atmosphere,” he said, heading toward the steps at the hotel entrance. “Come. I’ll drive you back. I
didn’t drink today, so you don’t have to worry.”
“Um, I can take a cab by myself.” Her voice was uncertain as she followed behind him.
As he slipped his fingers into the keychain, he skillfully spun the keys. “Are you being polite again,
little junior?”
She smiled somewhat awkwardly, unable to decipher his thoughts. Yet, she could not treat someone
who had helped her this way with such cold indifference. Just as she was about to follow
him to the parking lot, she saw a familiar Bugatti suddenly halt before him.
Anthony quickly retreated several steps, clutching his keys to his chest, visibly frightened.
Likewise, Abigail was also shocked. Her heart was pounding rapidly, and her blood was running hot.
She was stunned briefly before rushing toward Anthony, grabbing his arm, and inspecting him.

“Are you okay?”
At that moment, his eyes appeared particularly clear, with a hint of disbelief. When he heard her voice,
he barely regained his composure. “I-I’m fine.”
, Abigail glanced at Sean, who sat in the car with a cold, icy glare, and anger surged within her.
Eventually, it turned into indifference. Subsequently, she turned her gaze back to Anthony and
spoke gently, “Let’s go.”
Anthony nodded and patted his chest. With a slightly aggrieved tone, he said, “I was terrified. Abby.
Why does he seem like he has a grudge against me?”
She always felt that he was hiding his true nature behind a facade of innocence, but considering
that Sean had almost knocked him down, it was normal for him to be scared.
As they took a few steps forward, Se in honked the car horn loudly. The piercing horn made the anger
that Abigail had suppressed surge back up. She endured her irritation and spoke to Anthony in a
friendly tone, “You go ahead to the parking lot. I’ll talk to him.”
After Anthony glanced at Sean, he asked in a low voice, “What’s your relationship with him?”
“Nothing special. We just have some unresolved business conflicts.” She hastily found an excuse.
Anthony, somewhat skeptical, nodded and patted her shoulder. “Talk to him nicely. After all, you’ll still
be working in this industry, and it’s not good to provoke him.”
“I know. Thanks for the reminder,” she replied, then walked toward Sean.
Courteously, Anthony looked at the man in the car, but as he turned away, the smile disappeared
instantly, leaving only a deep sense of gloom. They appeared so close on the show, making fans think
they were a couple. How could that be just because of business conflicts?
At the same time, Abigail knocked on Sean’s car window, her expression impatient. He rolled down the
window, and with a mocking expression, he asked, “Is your important matter meeting up with your
senior behind my back?”
“Are you stalking me?” She stared at him.
He fixed his gaze on her, his face showing displeasure. “Get in the car.”
Yet, she ignored him and turned to walk toward the roadside, then sent a message to Anthony.
‘Something urgent came up, so I’ll hail a cab. Thank you for your help today. I’ll treat you to dinner
when I have the chance.
Meanwhile, Sean started his car and followed her with furrowed brows. From the moment she
entered the work field, everything between them seemed to have shifted. The calm and gentle
woman for the past three years seemingly became a distant memory.
Abigail hailed a cab and told the driver, “To Aqua Serenity Manor.”
Sean’s car silently followed her to Aqua Serenity Manor. After he parked in the parking lot, he

swept by, and for the first time, he felt a strange sense of desolation in his heart. She looked at him
calmly, her lips slightly pressed together.

The two of them entered the apartment building, one after the other. When they stepped into the
elevator together, he piped up, “Abigail, I want to know where our problems lie.”
“We’re home now. Stop asking such questions.” Her tone was cold but composed.
He gripped her shoulder, forcing her to face him. “You said I’m avoidant, but aren’t you doing the
same?”
“For three years, you’ve had countless opportunities to address our problems, but you never did.” She
sneered. “Don’t you think it’s too late now?”
“You never expressed any dissatisfaction before, so why now?” he asked, his eyes deep.
Tonight, she met with Anthony privately. He felt it was a miracle that he did not lose his temper and
tried to resolve the issues in their marriage calmly.
“What’s the point of asking this now? It’s redundant. I’ve lost interest.” With that, she pushed him
away.

Just then, the elevator doors opened. She stepped out of the elevator and strode away looking back,
leaving the man to furrow his brows in confusion.
