way. So, I had no choice but to seek advice from wife, Mr. Fernandez,” Abigail responded calmly, maintaining eye
contact with him.

While he was away, Ronaldo exclaimed, “Why did Lacey do such a thing? If there’s a misunderstanding, shouldn’t

these inconsequential matters, don’t you think?”
“It hasn’t been confirmed that it was my daughter’s doing yet, so I can’t give you an answer,” Carla declared with a
haughty air, deliberately avoiding eye contact with Abigail.

With these thoughts racing through his mind, Tony reassured Sean with a smile, “Of course. You have my

After concluding the call with Sean, Tony returned to the room and looked at Abigail with a much friendlier
expression. “I called Lacey, but she’s currently studying in another city and can’t return.”
“That’s right. Lacey is pursuing a career as a violinist, Carla said proudly.
He glared at his wife. “Why are you butting in? No one asked for your input. You’re not needed here. Go upstairs.”
Abigail was taken aback by the sudden change in his attitude. She couldn’t help but wonder, Did that call have
