Chapter 99
Sebastian stopped and turned around, looking at her with some displeasure.
Abigail thought she had said something wrong and was about to explain when she heard him say, “James brought you here, which means they all consider you a friend You want to be friends with them, but what about me?”
His light–hearted words struck Abigail’s heart directly. She thought, ‘Aren’t we cooperators? What other relationship could we have?!
Thinking of Sebastian’s frequency of changing girlfriends, she unconsciously avoided his gaze. “Oh, I don’t have any inappropriate thoughts about you I’m very grateful that I can have so much and even leave the Gibson family because of you, so I will work hard.

After a pause, she added, “I will keep following up on the medical robot. As long as it is still being updated, I will innovate its technology
Sebastian understood what she meant. With a cold laugh, he turned and walked away.
Abigail had no idea which sentence of hers had annoyed him. After thinking for a while, she guessed that Sebastian might find her too confident in the technology of medical robots and thus ridiculous.
When the group was playing cards, Abigail wanted to sit with James. He was more approachable and the kindest among everyone.
But James said to her seriously, “Sit with Seb and let him teach you how to play. Our skills are not very good, and we are afraid of misleading you.”
“Come here,” Sebastian said in a cold voice.
Abigail could only sit beside him. When she started to draw cards, Warren asked her, “Do you know how to play Texas Hold’em? It’s quite simple.”
“No,” Abigail said. She had never been exposed to such things since childhood. She added, “But I can learn.”
Beside her, Sebastian snorted and said, “Playing cards is
not
a
essary
skill. I’ll take you to play with guns this weekend. Want to go?”
“Okay,” she replied. Anyway, she had nothing to do during the bond would probably just play on the computer and watch dramas in the hotel.
Sebastian couldn’t help but smile. James and Warren saw that. The two leaned together, and James whispered, “Look at Seb’s smile.”
“Like an old bachelor who has found a girlfriend,” Warren commented.
When Sebastian saw them talking about him again, he knocked on the table and said, “Killer Poker is suitable for her. Sometimes, she needs to be more
scheming.”
James couldn’t help laughing and said, “Aren’t you also teaching Abby bad things?”
Warren squinted and smiled, “If Abby plays more with us old foxes, she can become more cunning and then deal with Seb.”
Abigail was amused and couldn’t help laughing, but she just silently reached out to draw cards.
“Abby is such a good girl,” James sighed.
In the middle of the game, a girl came over and sat directly beside James. James, who was talking to Abigail, subconsciously turned his head. When he saw who it was, he asked unhappily, “Why are you/here?”
The girl stared coldly at Abigail beside him and said, “Jessica Stewart. What’s your name?”
“Abigail Gibson,” Abigail said.
Hearing this, Jessica curled her lips and said unkindly, “What a tacky name.”
James frowned unhappily and warned, “Watch your mouth.”

Chapter 99.
What does my speaking manner have to do with you? We have no relationship at all, don’t wer Jessica said. She good up for a “Women like you, he will abandon you within a month
Abigail couldn’t help wondering, ‘Is she talking about James or Sebastian?‘
After Jessica left, James apologized, “She’s just like that. She comes to disgust people when she has nothing to do and then leaves.” Abigan od Show understanding.
Just then, the appetizers were served. Sebastian patted Abigail’s arm and said, “It’s time to eat.”
Abigail sat down with them. Soon, some people came over with wine to get close to Sebastian. These rich people spoke various languages. Abigail could understand a little French, but she had never been exposed to other languages.
But she was here to eat. After she was half full, she put down her plate to get a drink.
“Abby? What a coincidence!” a voice that made her lose her appetite instantly sounded. Abigail turned her head and saw Gabriel and Christian. Christian had actually noticed her earlier. He saw that she was sitting very close to Sebastian, playing cards in the best position and looking very happy.
Sebastian, who was chatting with a client, frowned when he heard Gabriel’s voice and asked the client to go about his business. He returned to Abigail’s side and put the wine on the dining table.
Afraid that Sebastian would drive him away, Gabriel quickly said, “Abby, talk to Mr. Robinson about Stevie’s matter. After all, he is your brother.”
