They each had their own brand of social finesse.

Abigail didn’t press the topic any further.

When they arrived at Sebastian’s house, she hadn’t even stepped through the door before spotting him in the kitchen with dinner prep.

The house was designed with floor–to-ceiling glass walls on nearly every side of the ground floor, leaving site to the imagination when it came to what was happening inside.

The moment Sebastian caught sight of her, he set down the knife he was holding and came to meet her at the door.

A chorus of cats trailed behind him, meowing incessantly like a furry little fan club.

The whole scene struck Abigail as absurdly delightful.

“How’s. Mr. Cex doing?” she asked, slipping off her shoes and hanging her bag by the door,

Sebastian caught the question and, in an instant, his features softened into a smile. “He’s well Said he’s all for us, so no need to worry about any disapproving voices.”

James, who had just changed into his slippers, made a loud taking sound. “Do you guys really have to do this in front of me?”

“If you’re jealous, go get your own girlfriend, Sebastian retorted, giving him a light shove, perhaps hoping to spare Abigail from embarrassment.

James doubled over laughing. “Abby, you are killing me I’m gonna have to test that theory

Warren squinted with amusement. “You’ve got to admire Abby, completely deadpan, and then she drops a line like that.”
