Chapter 102 Cajoling
The first time she gets mad at me, and it’s for another man. Sean hung up and slammed his phone.
Cameron was shocked, and he stayed quiet for a long time. Furtively, he told his underling to get a new phone. Kevin told Luna that Sean got mad, and she quickly came to Abigail’s room to cheer
her up.
“You don’t have to fight him over Victor’s case. I heard he got mad and smashed his phone.” Luna patted Abigail’s shoulder.
Abigail leaned in Luna’s embrace, holding her sadness back. “He pushed me around just for Joan. There’s a reason Damian bit Nina instead of everyone else.” She was mad because Sean humiliated her in front of Joan. Joan protecting the woman who sabotaged her was her way of showing off.
Luna held Abigail’s arm and said softly, “I told Sean you’re leaving the show so you won’t have to suffer this indignity. I’m worried Sean might attack L.Moon if I break the contract and fail his plan of having Joan debut.”
Abigail teared up even more. She had never felt so aggrieved before. Someone in the team sabotaged her, but as her husband, Sean protected the culprit just to spoil his mistress. As Abigail hugged Luna, Luna teared up as well.
Kevin was agonizing over the mess of this show. When he tried to talk with Luna, Luna ignored him. He could see that her eyes were red. When he tried to talk to Abigail, she locked her door. He didn’t understand any of this. You and Sean are neighbors. Why are you guys fighting over a call?
wife. Someone on a
Kevin went into Sean’s room and put on a look of dejection. He persuaded, “Why are you mad at her, Sean? She’s your set sabotaged her, and we couldn’t even find anything about that. Of course she’s aggrieved.”
“Don’t give me that. I know you’re enjoying the drama.” Sean saw through his lie right away.
Kevin snickered and huddled closer. “Are you jealous? Of course you are. Your wife is defending a male model. I’d be jealous too.”
Sean got madder. “If you have nothing to say, scram.”
Kevin quickly said, “I do have something to say. I trust Victor too. I trust Abigail’s instinct. There’s no reason a model would help an assistant like her. Nothing to gain from it, don’t you
think?”
Sean sneered. “Abigail’s a naive woman. She’s never gotten into the cesspool that is the entertainment industry, but you have. Victor is just using her as a stepping stone. His goal is Alana.”
“That’s conflicting. If his goal is Alana, then he should treat Abigail better instead of forcing himself on her. Not to mention, there’s the transaction record right in his phone. Luna would’ve made a eunuch out of him if that record was true,” argued Kevin.
Sean pursed his lips, but he said nothing. Kevin huddled closer to his desk. Earnestly, he said, “Why don’t you and Abigail take a step back each and let this slide? I mean, someone’s sabotaging her because you gave her too much attention during the show. The internet’s shipping you two.”
That cheered Sean up a little. “She doesn’t think I’m giving her too much attention.”
“I also have something to say about that. When her leg got hurt, Victor got her the meds she needed and helped her move things around, while you didn’t even show up.”
“Shut it.” The mention of Victor upset Sean.
“Sure thing.” Kevin grinned. “Just let this slide, Sean. For her sake. It’ll be better for her and the woman around you.”
Sean looked at him coolly. Kevin was telling him to keep Victor and Damian. “You think this will
that easily? Abigail argued with me for a male model. Why do you think I’m mad?” asked Sean coldly. He was annoyed by Victor before this, but now he wanted Victor to get out of the show.

Kevin made an OK gesture. “I’ll talk to Abigail. She’ll cajole you later.”
“I don’t need any cajoling. Phrase that better.” Sean glared at Kevin.
Kevin quickly left his room and heaved a sigh of relief. He went to Abigail’s room and knocked on the door.
Abigail was on the couch, a little dejected. When she heard the knocking, she looked at the door, but she ignored it.
Kevin said softly, “Ms. Quinn, I wanna talk about Victor. Please open up.”
Abigail felt a little resigned, but she got up and opened the door anyway. She stood at the doorway and looked at Kevin coolly, “What do you want to talk about?”
“Why don’t we take this inside?” Kevin simpered. His eyes were alluring.
Abigail made way for him.
