Chapter 90
James immediately stood up and said, “Someone’s here. You guys keep going.”
He didn’t know about Abigail’s conflict with the Gibson family. He walked to the door and saw a gentle–looking, pretty girl there. Assuming she was someone Abigail had called specifically to celebrate Sebastian’s birthday, he let her in.
Daniella walked into the private room and saw all the wealthy people inside. She unconsciously clenched her hands and said to James, who looked friendly, “Thank you.”
James pointed at Abigail and said, “Your sister is over there. Go sit with her.”
Daniella looked over and saw Abigail sitting next to Sebastian, and the two of them looked intimate. A flash of jealousy crossed her eyes.

“Uh, she said she was Abigail’s sister. I thought you’d invited her to celebrate your birthday,” James said, and his internal alarm blared instantly. Abigail’s icy expression and Sebastian’s near–anger both indicated he’d messed up.
Daniella let out a cry of pain, covering her leg and bursting into tears. Instead of getting up, she reached for Abigail’s hand. “Do you really need me to kneel before you’ll believe me?”
She didn’t believe he’d keep being nice to Abigail after seeing how “vicious” she was to her own little sister. Besides, Daniella was confident she was prettier than Abigail and better at arousing men’s sympathy.
