Chapter 322

Abigail had assumed that Sebastian

sunglasses and a mask earlier to prevent the vinet. But now it seemed more like he just wanted to lidi hafers

“Order whatever you like. We’ll go to the company aber bench,” Sebastian said casually, passing her a menu before focusing on it himselt

Seated across from him, Abigail considered asking about the content of her job, but thinking that he hadn’t even mentioned it to Timothy, she figured it must be a confidential assignment

After ordering her food, she set her phone aside, intending to ask him about the work net just as the opened her mouth, I

Abigail noticed that Sebastian glanced at her phone screen. The caller ID displayed: Stephen

Abigail didn’t want to answer the call. Her phone was an old model with poor audio quality, and with Sebastian sitting directly across from her, he could easily overhear the conversation

But she thought that she still hadn’t met her grandfather, and if she ignored Stephen’s call, he’d find other ways to make her life miserable.

“Please excuse me,” she said, picking up the phone and standing as if to leave the table.

Jackson interjected, “You can take it here. No need to worry about Mr. Robinson. He’s not interested in your personal matters”

The way Abigail seemed intent on stepping away annoyed Jackson, and he scoffed inwardly, ‘Does she think Mr. Robinson is someone interested in gossip? And who takes a call and sneaks off in front of their boss?

Abigail had no choice but to press the answer button.

Before she could say anything, Stephen’s voice exploded through the receiver. “Where the hell have you been? We can never find you at home. Dan’s depression flared up because of you. Get your ass back here right now.”

His rage echoed loudly from the phone. Abigail was used to being spoken to like this. But with Sebastian watching, she still felt a twinge of embarrassment

Abigail tried to hold back her anger and replied, “I’m on a business trip, If her depression is acting up, she should take her medication. Even if I’m at home, I can’t cure her immediately.”

“A business trip? Who do you think you are? You probably ran off because you realized you were too cruel with your words this morning, huh? Listen, you’re coming home to apologize to Dani, or don’t bother coming back at all. And forget about seeing Grandpa

Stephen was always good at finding her weak spots and using them like knives.

Abigail’s grip on the phone tightened a bit. Her breathing grew heavier, but she didn’t even realize it. She retorted, “Stephen, you’ve already broken your word once. Don’t keep pushing me. My patience har limits. And again, I’m on a business trip”

It frustrated her that having to argue over this nonsense in front of her boss. She hated the feeling–like Stephen’s voice was clamping around her throat again, dragging her back into that suffocating space.

“Even here, in a different city, I still can’t escape him, she thought bitterly,

Jackson noticed the firm set of Sebastian’s jaw and instantly regretted telling Abigail to answer the call at the t really should be kept away from work after all‘

Abigail hung up the phone. Seeing that Sebastijan’s mood had soured, she apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Robinson”

“It’s fine,” Sebastian said, his voice as neutral as ever.

After they finished their meal, Abigail beaded to the restroom, Jackson used the same excuse to follow her and he scoffed, “During work hours, I expect you to use a work phone. Don’t mix private affairs with your job”

Abigail thought his suggestion made sense. After all, Halden Group wain’t a small time operation. Big companies got where they policies, and it was on employees to uphold then,

It was only then that Abigail realized Jackson was deliberately making things hard for her. She looked at him and sad calmly, “I don’t have money for a new phone.”
