Chapter 487 Do You Think I’m Stupid

Abigail pushed open the door.

Cameron and Alfie were both holding their phones, looking as happy as two goofballs.

When Alfie turned around and saw Abigail, he grinned, looking absolutely silly.

“Did I come at a bad time?” Abigail asked with a serious face.

“N-No.” Alfie hurriedly got off Cameron’s bed, the smile on his face fading.

“It looks like you’re recovering pretty well.” Abigail walked into the room and placed the fruit. basket she was holding on the nearby table.

“Well, being young, a good meal is all you need to recover.” Cameron still looked relaxed.

Abigail looked at him for a while before saying, “You do need to recover quickly. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to your absence, especially when you aren’t around making me milk.”

“What’s the assistant doing? She can’t even make you milk?” Cameron immediately frowned. If someone from Sean’s team was this useless, they couldn’t survive in this industry.

“It’s because she’s not used to it. Unlike you, who insists on giving me a glass of milk every morning and night. What’s the idea behind that?” Abigail walked over to a chair and sat down.

Her current attire was very trendy and fashionable, making her look like a female boss.

“Ah, it’s just to make sure you don’t overwork yourself and end up with gastric problems. It’s for your own good,” Cameron explained.

“Did Sean tell you to do this?” Abigail asked bluntly.

She knew very well what kind of person Cameron was. Although he was smart, he followed the rules to the letter. So, he wouldn’t do this if it weren’t for Sean’s orders.

Cameron hesitated for a moment, his one remaining eye darting around. Then, he said with a grin, “He just casually mentioned it. After all, you’re the boss, and you do need to take care of your health.”

“Then, take good care of yourself. If there’s any problem, let me know.” Abigail rose to her feet. She just came to check and didn’t plan to stay long.

Alfie stood up as well, looking Abigail up and down, and said with a smile, “I’ll walk you out.”

“There’s no need for that. You can stay with him,” Abigail said.

Alhe chuckled and didn’t insist.

Just as Abigail reached the door, she bumped into Sean.

As soon as he saw her, Sean spoke up, “I just caught you in time. The CEO of Leap Gaming Technology asked me to give you this invitation”

As he spoke, he took out a gold-stamped invitation from his suit pocket and handed it to Abigail with his slender fingers.

Abigail remembered this. A few days ago, she heard that Leap Gaming Technology had made another breakthrough in their clothing line and planned to attend the computer technology and science exchange conference in Capitalis. Abigail also intended to meet with Leap Gaming Technology for business.

Abigail took the invitation and said graciously, “Thanks.”

“Are you going to collaborate with Leap Gaming Technology?” Sean withdrew his hand and looked at Abigail with lowered eyes.

Abigail placed the invitation in her bag and raised her eyes to meet his gaze in a slightly challenging way. “Why are you asking so many questions?”

“Just curious,” Sean said indifferently.

Abigail crossed her arms, and her gaze turned cold. “You’re not my business partner. So, stop prying. I’m leaving.”

Sean turned and followed her. “Your bodyguards are ready for you. Are you going back to the company? If so, I’ll have them report in an hour.”

“Yeah,” Abigail replied.

“There are four bodyguards, and the monthly salary per person should be no less than Cameron’s salary. Otherwise, they won’t work for you,” Sean reminded her as they walked side by side.

Abigail turned to look at Sean. “Just tell me how much each of them costs. You don’t need to pay for me behind my back. Four thousand a month for risking their lives? Do you think I’m stupid?”

Sean chuckled at her sudden shrewdness. “Pretty smart. At least twenty thousand each. If you think that’s too many, I’ll just send you two.”

This price was indeed a bit high, but safety came first…

“Eighty thousand a month… I can afford it,” she said firmly.

As long as she worked hard to earn money, she could naturally afford those bodyguards.

“Alright.” Sean nodded.

Abigail came out of the hospital, parting ways with Sean.

Sean stood at the hospital entrance, watching her tall figure, and there was happiness in his

eyes.

This Abigail was the most original version of herself.

All designers like to dress up. Every outfit she wore now had a unique personality. Sean felt that his gaze was irresistibly drawn to her.

Abigail got into the car, and her tense body gradually relaxed.

Nonetheless, Sean’s gaze felt like fire burning her back. So, she glanced out the car window. Even though he was wearing a knee-length trench coat, his legs still looked long.

What did he eat to grow this tall?

The computer conference was held in mid-April. Abigail, who was wearing a small ponytail and formal attire, looked as sharp as ever.

The CEO of Leap Gaming Technology approached her as soon as he saw her. “I didn’t expect you to still be interested in our games. Why is someone in the fashion industry like you. interested in this kind of conference?”

Abigail was about to say something when she saw Sean sitting not far away in a prominent position, indicating that he was a rather important figure.

She held her tongue and looked at the CEO of Leap Gaming Technology. “I have an idea I’d like to discuss with you, but I’ll have to see your technical presentation before proposing it.”

“Why? If the technology doesn’t meet your standards, you won’t discuss it?” The CEO of Leap Gaming Technology asked with a smile.

“Well, it wouldn’t be right to force my hand, right?” Abigail smiled politely.
