Xavien felt a twinge of anxiety.
"What if they discover the truth?" "It's not a problem to close the loop when they do," Sean remarked casually.
They had set the trap, and Sean controlled all the funds in the website's account. Xavien nodded in agreement and remained silent.
The following day, just past noon, while Sean was occupied, Lina phoned him.
"I've arranged to meet a few potential matches for you. I believe one of them is quite promising. Would you like to cover and meet her? I'm spending twith the girl at home," Lina inquired. "Alright, then. I'll prepare a gift first," Sean responded.
"Great! Etiquette is indeed important," Lina replied affirmatively.
After ending the call, Sean turned to Xavien, who was about to order food and said, "No need to order. I have a prior engagement. Let's head to the mall first." Xavien promptly stood up and agreed, "Okay." Upon arriving at the mall, Xavien trailed behind Sean as the latter entered a high-end handbag boutique.
To Xavien's surprise, it was a women's handbag store.
Xavien was filled with questions as he curiously observed Sean.
Meanwhile, the sales manager nearby had been observing Sean for a while. Seeing that he hadn't found a suitable bag after half a day, she approached and asked, "May I ask who the bag is for?" Recognizing the salesperson's high emotional intelligence, Sean replied, "It's for a blind date. We're meeting for the first ttoday." "Ah, I see. This black and white checkered one is just the right size and features a classic style that suits any woman, regardless of her personality or appearance." The sales manager recommended a bag and presented it to Sean.

"We only have three of this style in stock. One was purchased by a wealthy lady overseas, and another is owned by a popular actress in the entertainment industry, so there won't be any bag clash scenarios," the sales manager added.
Impressed by Sean's refined demeanor, she assumed he must be quite discerning.
"I'll take this one," Sean stated.
The sales manager promptly had the bag wrapped by a salesperson.
As they exited the store, Xavien couldn't resist asking, "Are you really going on a blind date?" After all these years, he no longer viewed himself as subordinate in personal matters.
"What's wrong with that? Can't I go on a blind date?" Sean responded calmly.
Xavien furrowed his brows, struggling to voice his thoughts, and eventually asked softly, "Are you no longer waiting?" "Didn't you see what happened that day?" Sean replied calmly.
It was Abigail who had given up on him, not the other way around.
While he had been envious before, he failed to rush to her aid when she was in danger. But later, he invested 400 million to establish maritroutes in various countries for her, as a way of atoning for his mistakes.
For Sean, the chapter with Abigail had closed when she chose Simond.
Xavien stated, "If you've made up your mind and genuinely like the other person, I will treat them as I would Abigail." Only Abigail could compel Xavien to address her so affectionately.
"Alright." Sean nodded. "Let's forget it. After all these years, I'm weary. Life is meant to be simple and straightforward, devoid of grandeur and excitement." Sean drove back hwhile Xavien headed to a hotel for dinner.
Having sold the Graham Estate, Sean now resided in a property he had purchased downtown.
Returning hwith the gift box, he spotted a woman seated in the living room and momentarily felt disoriented.
Despite claiming to have moved on, Sean couldn't help but feel a pang of unease upon realizing it wasn't Abigail. It was almost as if he wanted to flee rather than confront the situation. Even he himself didn't know if he would regret it someday in the future.
"You're back." Lina stood up in surprise and quickly introduced Sean to the woman. "This is my grandson, Sean. You must have heard of him." Indeed, Sean's affairs were quite famous in their circle.
He gave away 400 million just like that, and all for a woman.
Presently, the young woman put down her teacup and stood up m turning to to Sean with a gentle smile.
"Hello, Mr. Graham. I'm Irene Walker, the second daughter of the Walkers." Sean walked over and handed her the gift box. "Then I don't need to introduce myself." "Thank you." Irene took it and placed it on the coffee table.
"You two chat. I'll go to the kitchen." Lina had a keen eye, and after saying that, she quickly slipped away.

Sean sat down and sent a message to Xavien as he commented, "We can see how things go. Km quite busy NO from Monday to Friday, but I can accompany you for dinners in the evenings." When he said this, Sean was very elegant, with a unique warmth.
Irene smiled and asked him, "Mr. Graham, what are your hobbies?" Sean was taken aback by her question. I don't think I have any particular hobbies...
"No hobbies," he replied in a deep voice. search the Find Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"No hobbies? I don't have any hobbies either." Irene smiled.
Sean couldn't help but feel like she was a bit too typical of ladylike behavior.
Suddenly, the two of them had nothing to say to each other.
Sean felt a headache coming on, thinking it would be better to find a partner to work with so they could talk about work together.
Sitting together, the duo had absolutely no topics to discuss.
Irene hesitated for a moment and finally sighed helplessly. "Mr.
m Graham, I won't pretend anymore. If you think i nk it's appropriate, we'll see where this goes. If you think it's not suitable, I'll leave after lunch."
