Abigail’s Second Life

Chapter 138 Trying To Understand Abigail truly cared about no one now. Not only did she not care about Sean's prestige, but she also disregarded Cornelie's words.

"She doesn't know how to do anything. What can she achieve outside? With a capable husband like you, she's still insistent on earning a meager salary outside. Only people who cfrom the countryside have such poor mindsets," Cornelie criticized with disdain. Sean used to dislike Abigail, and he would forget such words in the past. As he carefully listened, he couldn't help but feel that these words were like thorns pricking at his heart.

"Grandma, have you always been talking to her like this?" he asked suddenly.

"Why? Did I say anything wrong? We've spent thousands to feed and clothe her, yet she's never given us a child," Cornelie muttered.

After listening indifferently, he said, "I've said before that I don't want kids. Why are you making things difficult for her? Why did you ask her to cback today?" His tone carried a hint of anger, and Cornelie could sense it. She stuttered, "I-I found a doctor to treat her." "It won't help. I don't want a child," he said coldly before hanging up the phone.

Perhaps Abigail's impatience with Sean was not just about him but also the resentment that built up over these three years, which he had always chosen to ignore.

Cornelie's words were harsh, and when they first got married, he felt that Abigail had married him.

with ulterior motives, so she deserved to be mistreated by Cornelie. This initial sense of revenge.

had beca habit, and he grew accustomed to ignoring it.

He wasn't Abigail, so of course, he couldn't understand what kind of emotions she had experienced during these three years by his side.

As soon as he hung up, Colby's call cin.

Sean had just pressed the answer button when he heard Colby's fit of anger. "Have you been cheating, and did Abigail find out about it?" "I didn't cheat!" Sean immediately defended himself.

"Abigail has always been obedient, working tirelessly at hfor three years. Now, she's gone out to work. What kind of husband are you? Are you stingy when it comes to money? Don't think I don't know how much you've spent on Joan!" Colby's voice grew louder.

"She's just working; it's not a heinous crime. We don't have children yet, and she wants to pursue her dreams. What's wrong with that?" Sean countered his grandfather.

Hearing that, Colby gritted his teeth. "She'd better be pursuing her dreams." The call ended, leaving Sean frustrated and tugging at his tie.

He was dissatisfied with everything, so he sent a message to Abigail. 'Do you know what you've done? I got scolded by Grandpa! SeaR*ch the FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

After sending the message, he co dn't focus on his work and kept checking his phone for Abigail's response.

On the other hand, Abigail was working non-stop, and it was soon 9.00PM when she finally left the fabric market. That was when she noticed Sean's message.

When she settled herself in the car, she called him back, but just a few seconds after the call was connected, he hung up.

She chuckled in frustration and couldn't be bothered to make another call.

A few minutes later, Sean returned the call. Once the call was connected, he pretended to sound. normal. "I was dealing with something and couldn't answer earlier. Can't you call a second time?" "What did Grandpa say?" she asked directly.

She had considered that her actions today might affect her grandmother and him, for they had agreed to put on a facade for the sake of the two elders. However, in her anger, she had broken her promise.

"When will you be back?" He felt that his grandfather's words were meaningless, and if he told her, she might get angry because of Joan.

"About six days. If you wantto see a doctor, you probably need it more." She was now determined not to see a doctor, for she wouldn't consider having a child anymore.

"I'll see a doctor and get spills. Do you want to try to see if they're effective?" He purposely teased her.

Instantly, her cheeks turned slightly red as she replied in a low voice, "Idiot. What's gotten into you?"

"You said to put on a facade in front of the elderly. My grandma has an weak heart, and politely decline if you can't cback. Or you can just call me," he said. At her words, she bit her lip, secretly thinking, Is he planning to turn over a new leaf?"I understand," she replied.

Looking at the unfamiliar streets outside, she instinctively replied, "Broham." you can "Okay." He acknowledged her reply before asking, "Grandpa has misunderstood me. Aren't you going to say something?" "What? Do you

think it's my fault because I didn't answer my phone today?" she m countered. He's really good at finding excuses for himself; he always shifts the blonto others. "I didn't say it was your fault. It's just that we made a promise, and you acted unfairly." He spoke a bit more slowly.

Abigail did feel a bit guilty, so her tone softened. "When I get back... I'll make you something nice, okay?" Sean's voice was instantly filled with a hint of pleasure. "Okay." After the two hung up the phone, she looked out the window, feeling strangely relieved for no apparent reason.

Back at the hotel where she was staying, she rested for two hours before taking a shower and getting ready to go out suddenly, she received a location-sharing request from Sean on her phone. After she accented it in confusion she noticed that he was exceptionally close to her current X
