The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon
Chapter 483 Wanting to Hold Her Howard also felt very sad upon hearing the barely noticeable trace of emotion in Abigailâs voice. Leland used to work for Flower Meadow and was related to the previous shareholders who sold their stakes. Therefore, this incident was considered trouble that Flower Meadow brought to them.
âI think we should just take back Lelandâs house. We shouldnât have been so nice to them.â Howard fell silent for a long while before making a decision.
âHow influential are our shareholders in Capitalis?â Abigail didnât believe that things were as simple as they appeared.
Howard approached and whispered, âMr. OâNeils knows a lot of people, while the other two who own a lot of stocks also have many connections but arenât loyal. Theyâre just in it for the dividends and canât be relied on.â
âIn that case, talk to Mr. OâNeils and have him investigate Lelandâs wife, Giada Cain, and her family. Her child has super-male syndrome. I looked it up and found that itâs dangerous. I suspect someone found out about his genetic issue and set us up,â
Abigail said, refusing to believe that things could be so coincidental. Plus, many didnât want L.Moon to do well, not to mention there was also Vincent.
Howard immediately understood Abigailâs implication as he also had a front-row seat of the Pearsons suppressing their business. âAlright, Iâll ask Mr. OâNeils for help with the investigation.â
News about Cameronâs situation quickly reached Seanâs ears. When he arrived at the hospital, he saw Abigail sitting outside the ward, engrossed in her conversation. So, he slowed his steps.
Sean had inquired about the situation from the police station and also learned that the assailant was a super-male syndrome patient before making the trip here. So, Abigail couldnât hold him accountable. In the end, Giada naturally had to bear the responsibility for intentionally causing harm. Regardless, this situation was nothing but a loss for Abigail and Cameron.
Abigail put away her phone the instant she sensed someone beside her.
âWhy didnât you change?â Sean looked at her blood-stained coat and asked.
Abigail lowered her head, finally realizing there was a patch of bloodstain on her clothes.
âI didnât have the time. While Abigail said that, her tone sounded cold.
Since Sean knew she was in a bad mood due to Cameronâs accident, he sat beside her and 1/3 texted Alfie to come over.
âThis incident is definitely not a random occurrence, so Iâve already ordered an investigation. Personally, I suspect itâs related to Vincent,â Sean said, leaning back in his chair and looking at Abigailâs side profile.
Abigail turned to look at him. âWhy arenât you asking about Cameron?â
Sean fell silent momentarily after hearing the reproach in her tone before replying, âHow is Cameron?â
He trusted Cameronâs abilities, which was why he prioritized her.
âCameron has been with you for so long, and I still have his blood on me, but you didnât even bother to ask about him before saying all this. Do you have no feelings for your men?â Abigail had nothing to vent her frustration on. As a result, Sean became her target.
âThat kid is about ten years old. Even if he has super-male syndrome... Cameron still lost an eye because heâs a kid. Donât you care even a little about him?â Abigail questioned angrily.
When Sean heard that, he immediately frowned. âHe lost an eye?â
Abigailâs eyes instantly reddened as she held her forehead, choking, âI donât want to argue with you, but I feel horrible. What wrong have I done? Why does everyone around me have to suffer?â
Sean held her hand as he gently coaxed her, âYou did nothing wrong. Youâre too brilliant, which is why others envy you.â
âSean, saying it like this wonât change anything. Cameron lost an eye... None of us expected such a young kid to be so ruthless.
I just wanted to create my own brand and make quality clothes for consumers. What did I do wrong?â Abigailâs tears fell.
Luna resigned, and he was going to marry Kelly. The only one left by her side was Cameron, but even he got hurt.
Sean wanted to hold her but was afraid someone in the hospital might be watching him.
With L.Moonâs development going strong and her gaining popularity with her fashion sense, Sean didnât want his actions to bring her any negative publicity because of his actions.
âOnce youâre done venting, take some time to compose yourself. You can blame yourself for what happened to Cameron, but keep in mind that heâs a bodyguard. Itâs his responsibility to be vigilant around you. He failed to do so, so donât blame yourself.â
Sean took a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her.
Just as Abigail was about to say he was ruthless, he continued, âCameron had gone through <
2/3 tough training before he started accompanying me. If he stayed with me, he would even have to be wary about a baby, let alone a child. Yet, he let his guard down while with you. Should you be blamed for that?â
âYouâre so ruthless!â Abigail snarled angrily.
âI wouldnât say this if Xavien got hurt while he was with you,â Sean explained.
Abigail pursed her lips, still thinking that Sean was too cruel.
âIâll check on Cameron. Donât blame yourself too much. His profession is to be a bodyguard, and itâs his job to risk his life to save you.â Sean stood up and turned to walk into the ward.
Although Seanâs words sounded merciless, Abigail didnât feel as bad after he comforted her. So, she wiped her tears and followed him into the ward.
