Chapter 265 Innocent Victim
The weather in July was getting hotter. What frustrated Abigail was that the Davidson Family unilaterally canceled the design she had just completed for Eric’s grandmother. Of course, they had also audaciously forfeited the initial twenty percent deposit.
Her assistant was so furious that she ranted for about ten minutes. “Why didn’t they inform us about this earlier? They were wasting our time. Do they think designing is something easy?”
“You’re getting me all riled up. Hurry up and get some ice cream. We can cool down together” Although Abigail maintained a calm facade, she was also internally dissatisfied. She knew Eric’s actions had likely angered his family, so they were venting their anger on her. Not wanting her design was probably the start of a show because she was sure there would be more awaiting her.
Still, she could not believe this matter had become her fault when it was Eric who confessed to
her.
While Abigail was in thought, the assistant returned with the ice cream. She opened the packaging for Abigail and continued, “The Davidsons are being petty about this. Eric likes you, not the other way around. So, why should they make things hard on you?”

occurred,
As Abigail spoke, her phone rang. Seeing that it was Eric calling, she answered the call. “I’m aware of the canceled order. There seems to be a misunderstanding, but it wasn’t my parents‘ or grandmother’s intention for this to happen,” he explained anxiously.
“It’s fine if you cancel it. Let’s say L.Moon is put online for people to purchase it. Will your family come and say this isn’t what they want?” she asked calmly,
Facing her question, Eric felt ashamed. After all, his impulsive decision caused her so much trouble,
“I’m sorry about these, but I can’t evade what’s already happened or what’s next. I just want to tell you that no matter what, I will stand by your side and protect you. You don’t need to sell this design to anyone else. I’ll buy it from you.” He acted as if he was ready to stand alongside her to
face this.
Hearing his words, Abigail frowned. “You’re not the only customer who cancels the order, Eric. However, there’s a rule in our studio. If a customer cancels an order without any valid reason, we’ll blacklist them and cease any chances of cooperation. Even if we know each other, I will not sell the design to you.”
Seeing that she was going to discuss important matters, her assistant quickly left the office.
With this statement, Abigail had added Eric to the studio’s blacklist. In the future, unless a director from his film crew ordered clothes, L.Moon would not cooperate with individuals related to him or himself.
“I’m still investigating this matter. I don’t know why the order was
was canceled-” His voice was

hoarse.
She interrupted him and said, “Eric, although you’re prepared to face the challenges with me, I don’t want any of it. I’m an innocent victim. I don’t need to bear the trouble your family has caused me, nor do I need to face all of this with you, let alone acce
the consequences your family wants to teach me.”

“If the person you like has to suffer with you, maybe you shouldn’t like anyone at all. If your/ family are such characters… I’m sorry, but there’s not even the slightest chance we’ll be together.” Then, she immediately hung up the phone. Initially, she thought the Davidsons were wonderful people since they could raise someone like Eric. However, she
lized she had been wrong.
“What’s gotten you so angry, little junior?”

Just as she set her phone down, she heard Anthony’s voice from her office do and was surprised. However, recalling what Sean had said, her feelings became somewhat complex.
“It’s just something work–related. I’m not a saint, so there are times I will get angry,” Abigail replied jokingly.

Anthony walked over and sat down on the couch. Although he appeared casual, he was guessing if she was saying those words to him on purpose. Ronaldo had told him what Sean had said in Eastbay but did not know what impression Abigail currently had of him. Hence, he was here today to make up for it.
