Chapter 20 Being A Home Wrecker Standing behind Abner, Matt initially thought of reminding Abner of the meeting, but when he saw Damara’s face, he held back his words. Was this the woman from last night? What exactly was her relationship with Abner? The elevator stopped in front of them, and Damara made a gesture inviting them in. Abner didn’t bother with pleasantries and turned to instruct Matt to head to the office first. Then, he stepped into the elevator. The hotel’s breakfast area was in the lobby downstairs, already bustling with many people. Damara and Abner chose a window-side table, and the waiter promptly served them a glass of lemonade. Damara took a sip of the lemonade, and the tangy flavor stimulated her taste buds, alleviating the dizziness in her head to some extent. She thought having breakfast before going to the hospital wouldn’t be a bad idea, lest she fainted from low blood sugar on the way. Putting down her water glass, she asked, “Mr. Robinson, what kind of books do you like to read in your spare time? Mr. Payne told me that you seem to have taken some art-related courses.” The client’s desired style often correlates with their personal preferences.

Damara wanted to gather more information about his preferences through this short interaction. However, Abner only replied, “Just go with your instincts.” Clients like him were hard to deal with. It was like the open-ended essay questions from her student days. With too many choices for the theme, she might end up getting more and more indecisive. On the other hand, a predefined topic would limit the scope, making things much more straightforward. Just go with her instincts? She started constructing a basic style in her mind, but then, she heard a surprised female voice nearby. “Abner?” Following the voice, she saw a young woman in a Chanel suit approaching. Her makeup was exquisite, and her eyes were glued to Abner. “I’ve been here for days and thought I wouldn’t run into you.” Kara’s face displayed undisguised delight, but when her gaze shifted to Damara, a barely noticeable trace of wariness flashed in her eyes. “Who’s this?” Damara was about to say that Abner was her client, but before she could speak, Kara casually sat down next to them, as if Damara didn’t 12:46 Chapter 20 Being A Home Wrecker 40 Vouchers even exist, and continued to question Abner.. “I heard you’re planning to renovate the A&U Villa?” Abner didn’t want to converse much with her and gave a perfunctory reply, “Yeah.” Kara chuckled, her lips curling up, “I remember you liked the layout of A&U Villa. I know an amazing designer. If you don’t mind…” She was apparently trying to get closer to Abner by introducing a designer to him. However, before finishing her sentence, Damara smiled and interjected, “I’m sorry, miss. Mr. Robinson is my client.” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Kara’s gaze finally shifted to Damara, and she pursed her lips, “You’re a designer too?” The disdain in her eyes was evident as if she believed Damara was also trying to use this opportunity to get close to Abner. “Yes, I’ve been having great conversations with Mr. Robinson,” Damara replied. Great conversations? They appeared together at the hotel breakfast table so early in the morning; who knows if they were together last night? Thinking of this, Kara’s expression changed again, feeling that Damara was deliberately showing off Initially, Kara had planned to deliberately ignore this woman who seemingly appeared out of nowhere and embarrass her enough to back off. But she didn’t expect Damara to respond so confidently. 12.46 Chapter 20 Being A Home Wrecker 40 (Vouchers Taking a deep breath, Kara deliberately brought up Abner’s marriage. “Since Abner chose you, he must have his reasons. I hope you take it seriously and don’t disappoint Abner and his wife.” Abner’s brows furrowed. Over the years, even though Kara knew he was married, she pursued him relentlessly and used his marriage to fend off many women who followed him. As expected, Kara’s following words were relatively straightforward. “You/inust know that Abner is married, right?” The implication was clear: Are you trying to be a home wrecker?
