Lina ushered Abigail into her office. Meanwhile, Renee was in the drafting room, collaborating with colleagues on
design research.
Wanting to ensure the celebrity’s privacy, Lina closed the door and swiftly rolled down the blinds. She even went to
fetch coffee, ensuring no one would enter or interrupt.
Lina’s thoughtfulness made Abigail feel a tinge of guilt. Abigail removed her sunglasses, revealing her beautiful
eyes, and sincerely smiled.
“I knew you were extraordinary the moment I saw you downstairs!” Lina exclaimed, sitting across from her and

these past few days. I never expected you to be here today! By the way, who did your agent speak to?”
Abigail quickly waved her hand. “Oh no, no! I’m sorry, I’m not here for the ambassador interview.”
“Then why are you here?” Lina asked.
“I’m here because…” Abigail bit her lip.
She couldn’t reveal that she had come just to see Lina!
However, her trip hadn’t been in vain. The moment she met Lina, she understood why Jacob chose her as his
girlfriend. If she were a man, she would like Lina too. She would spoil and shower her with love, ensuring that no
harm came her way.
Abigail smiled playfully and came up with an excuse. “I-I don’t have any events today, so I decided to take a walk. I
happened to pass by the Thompson Group and thought I’d take a look.”
Lina was curious. “What is there to see here?”
Abigail chuckled mischievously. “You, because you’re good-looking!”
Lina smiled in response.
They chatted for a while, expecting some awkward silence since it was their first meeting. To their surprise, there
was no trace of discomfort. They engaged in passionate conversations on various topics. It felt as if they had met
each other too late.
Unbeknownst to them, time flew by, and they continued talking well into the evening.
Lina was taken aback when Renee knocked on the door, holding a stack of design drafts.
“Don’t worry.” Abigail stood up, and they exchanged contact information. “We can continue our conversation next
time. And if we can’t meet in person, we can send voice recordings, have video calls, or whatever works best for
us, anytime!”
Lina smiled. “You must be busy. I wouldn’t want to disturb you.”
“I’m not!” Abigail quickly replied. “I’m always free whenever you want to meet!”

To avoid drawing attention, Abigail put on her sunglasses and cap.
Lina escorted her all the way to the underground parking lot and left only after seeing her get into the car.
Relaxing in her seat, Abigail reclined and wore a grateful smile. Unlocking her phone, she added an “A” before
Lina’s name. That way, Lina’s name would appear at the top of her contact list.
Perplexed, her assistant asked with a blank expression, “Ms. Abigail, did you place your love rival’s contact at the
top so you can tear her apart whenever you want?”
Abigail frowned and glared at her assistant. “What nonsense are you saying?”
“Then…”
“She’s the person Jacob likes!” Abigail declared earnestly. “And she’s worth it!”
“So?”
“So, I like her too!”
The assistant felt as if she was struck by lightning, unsure of what to do next.
