THE SPARE WIFE - Season 5 Episode 38

“Why don’t you try to comfort Howard if he’s bothered by it?” Abigail suggested as she walked over to Luna to console her. “You could take a day off today, go on a date with him, and make it clear that it’s not your fault.”

Luna responded with a hint of dissatisfaction, “He also knows that I haven’t known Josh for long. So, can he blame me when Josh suddenly goes crazy?”

Abigail quickly reassured her. “He can’t blame you.”

“He’s angry with me… I’m really innocent in this,” Luna said and calmed down as she spoke.

Abigail patted her on the shoulder and said, “Don’t be angry. It will work out in the end, and if it doesn’t, just let it go.”

Luna nodded immediately and said, “You’re right.” Afterward, she called out to her assistant outside. “Let Cameron in.” She suspected that Sean was jealous again because Eric sent Abigail back last night.

Cameron was invited in, and he first glanced at Luna before pitifully looking at Abigail. “Ms. Quinn. I’m begging you to hire me; Mr. Graham fired me.”

Luna burst into laughter. “You must be kidding.”

“It’s true. Mr. Graham said I talk too much and I’m not as obedient as before, so he fired me,” Cameron said while looking quite aggrieved.

Abigail stared at him and pondered the authenticity of his words.

“Getting fired means you can find another employer. Why come to us? With your background of working alongside Sean for so many years, there should be many people eager to hire you,” Luna said with a smile.

Cameron looked at Abigail, and his eyes were filled with sincerity. “So, I came here to apply for a job with Ms. Quinn. I’m used to being around familiar people. Ms. Quinn, I promise to be as obedient as a dog if you choose to hire me.”

Abigail’s expression was somewhat difficult to read. “You’re a person; you don’t need to be as obedient as a dog, and I don’t need a bodyguard.” He was indeed good, but she thought he was too heavy- handed when it came to violence. He might have gotten away with it while working alongside Sean, given Sean’s status and influence, but working for her was different.

“You don’t need a bodyguard, but you do need a driver. I can work as a driver if you want. Please.” He folded his hands together and even gave her a small bow.

“Is your task to work exclusively for Abigail?” Luna reclined on the couch, and her expression was playful.

Cameron quickly tried to please her and said, “How could it be? I’ve been working by Ms. Quinn’s side for some time now. I know she’s a great person, so I came here to apply for a job. I’ve been working intensively by Mr. Graham’s side. I also want to experience a more relaxed professional life.”

Although Luna had a suspicious expression, she asked Abigail, “What do you think? Should we hire him?”

Abigail looked at him with a somewhat indifferent tone. If you’re telling the truth. I’ll let you work with me, but if I find out you’re lying, you know the consequences. No matter if this was part of Sean’s plan or not if she found out that Cameron had come here deliberately, she wouldn’t forgive his deceit just because they were familiar with each other

“I’m not lying; it was Mr. Graham who said that I’ve changed, and you know how strict he is with the people around him.” Cameron quickly expressed his sincerity.

It didn’t matter either way; if things went south, Sean would have his back. He was just an ordinary hourly

worker.

Abigail nodded and said, “All right. You can work as my assistant and part-time driver. I don’t know how much Sean is paying you, but I can’t afford a high salary. You’ll have to work from 8.00AM to 5.00PM, and meals are included but not accommodation. I can offer you 3,000 a month.” That was the most she could offer.

Luna was surprised at how easily Abigail seemed to trust Cameron’s words.

“Thank you, Miss Quinn!” Cameron immediately beamed and gave a respectful bow.

“Just find an empty seat outside and wait. I’ll call you if I need anything.” As Abigail spoke, she intended to return to her workspace.

Once Cameron left, Luna followed Abigail into her office. “Aren’t you afraid that Sean is plotting something again?” she asked Abigail.

Abigail sighed. “Cameron worked with me for some time, and during that time, he really changed. You know what kind of temperament Sean has.”

Luna clicked her tongue. “I’m still leaning toward the idea that he’s up to something.”

“Either way, I do need someone to be my assistant. My current assistant is limited in strength, and sometimes I need help with heavy lifting,” Abigail said.

“I’ve arranged for those three interns to work in Pendorf, but they said they still want to learn from

you,” Luna sat on the single couch in Abigail’s workspace, and her tone was tinged with some helplessness.

“You tell them that to become a designer, they must first learn how to make clothes; all kinds of them, men’s, women’s, children’s, and more. They not only need to know how to make them but also learn how to read size charts. They should know how to address any unreasonable size chart issues and handle clients. with unreasonable design requests,” Abigail said while standing by a sewing machine and giving

instructions to Luna.

Luna asked, “What else, Miss Quinn?”

Abigail raised an eyebrow and glanced at her before saying, “You’ve become quite chatty as well. Also, I need them to learn traditional craftsmanship as much as possible, especially embroidery. They should learn from the master embroiderers.”
