The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon
Chapter 232 Exercise Caution After lunch, Abigail set off for Pendorf.
At L.Moon, Luna and her assistant greeted Abigail as she arrived.
âJosh has been visiting L.Moon quite frequently recently. I heard he rented a house around here,â Luna mentioned as she helped Abigail with her luggage.
While Josh and Eric had greatly assisted Abigail this time, Luna still remembered that the Pearsons and the Davidsons were not to be underestimated. Therefore, she also kept a close eye on Josh and Ericâs movements in Pendorf.
âWe can talk about it later. Iâm a bit tired,â Abigail replied. She didnât want to discuss matters involving the Pearsons and Davidsons in front of Lunaâs assistant. After all, these two families were able to uncover such hidden secrets, indicating an exceptional level of resourcefulness. If the assistant knew too much, it could potentially be detrimental to them.
âAlright.â Luna nodded.
Once inside the office, Luna closed the door and asked, âCan we really trust Josh?â
âSince weâve been in contact with him, weâve essentially agreed to cooperate. It might be too late to bring up these concerns now,â Abigail stated.
âTrue,â Luna agreed.
âA special car will bring back the clothes today. Give Lexie a call and ask if she prefers our studio to deliver them to her personally or if sheâll come pick them up,â Abigail instructed Luna.
Hearing this, Luna looked concerned. âLexie is quite particular. Do you think sheâll be satisfied with your designs?â
With Lexie offering such a high price, both Luna and Abigail were worried. After all, she was a famous actress who had seen all sorts of highâend fashion. They werenât sure if she would approve of Abigailâs designs.
âWhether sheâs satisfied or not, sheâs already paid the deposit. Right now, the most pressing matter is dealing with Joan and Kingston,â Abigail said, wanting to settle this issue quickly before Sean got involved.
âAlright. You should go check on your grandmother. I brought her home yesterday,â Luna suggested.
After Abigail finished dealing with the situation, she returned to Quinn Village. She had been busy with her own affairs after her grandmotherâs incident and hadnât been able to stay and take care of her, so she felt a bit guilty.
Eager to return home, Abigail rang the bell as soon as she arrived.
However, she didnât see her grandmother come to answer the door.
âGrandma,â Abigail called out.
After waiting for a while with no response, Abigail called out again, but louder this time. âGrandma!â
The neighbor next door heard the commotion and stuck her head out, smiling. âAre you looking for your grandma?â
âYes, I just got back,â Abigail replied, her tone anxious.
âYour grandmother isnât home. She left with a man wearing a baseball cap. husband?â the neighbor asked, still smiling.
Wad that your Sean rarely came here, so the neighbor didnât know what he looked like, which was normal.
Abigailâs heart raced.
Sean didnât usually wear a baseball cap, and the only man she knew who wore one was the man who had appeared in Ouisford.
That cap had left her with a significant psychological scar.
Could it be that the Palmer siblings had found out about the lawsuit she intended to file?
âThank you,â Abigail said, not answering the neighborâs question, before hurrying away.
She returned to find that the courtyard gate had not been locked.
Now, she was even more certain that her grandmother had been taken away.
Abigail was about to call Josh when Seanâs call came in first.
Her intuition told her that this call was related to her grandmother.
She answered, her voice cold. âIs this about my grandmother?â
âYes,â Sean confirmed. He had just received a call from Kingston, informing him that Analise was in his hands.
âIs this related to the Palmer siblings?â Abigailâs voice grew even colder.
âAbigail, I know you plan to sue Kingston and Joan, but Iâm advising you not to act recklessly. Please trust me...â Sean began.
âTrust you in what? Sean, are you planning to let Joan off again?â Abigail interrupted.
Whenever she thought of Joan, she got angry.
If it wasnât for Sean, she wouldnât have gotten involved with these two siblings.
âI have no intention of letting her off. I have my own plans,â Sean explained to Abigail.
âDo you think Iâll still believe what you say? Sean, forget it! Iâm definitely going to sue them. If they dare touch my grandmother, let them try!â Abigailâs voice was filled with anger.
âAbigail, can you please calm down?â Seanâs tone also grew serious.
âCalm down? My grandmother has only been discharged for a day, and now she has been taken away by them. How can you expect me to stay calm?â Abigailâs voice rose suddenly.
Without waiting for Sean to speak, she continued, âWhat right do you have to tell me to stay calm? Those two people youâre protecting did such a terrible thing! You keep talking about investigating, but thereâs still no news so far. I had to hear it from someone else. Is this what you mean by giving me an explanation?â
âYou donât understand Kingstonâs nature. Do you know the consequences of provoking him?â Sean countered Abigail.
Abigailâs hands trembled slightly. âThen what do you want me to do? My grandmother must have owed you in her past life!â
âListen to me. Donât act recklessly,â Sean advised Abigail in a gentle tone.
