Chapter 7
The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon
Chapter 7 Abigailâs eyebrows twitched when she heard Seanâs slightly insulting remark.
He is free to attend the meeting with Joan and accompany her to try on a wedding dress, but when it comes to finalizing our divorce settlement, he is annoyed by having to wait another 20 minutes! Damn! He needs to get things straight! It is I who decided not to humiliate him and Joan by voluntarily ending our marriage, not the other way around!
When she thought of this, she attempted to calm herself down by taking a deep breath. Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door from the other end of the phone. âSean, you didnât go to the City Hall at all, did you?â Abigail instantly changed the topic.
âDo you honestly think everyone has the habit of going back on their words like you?â Sean scoffed coldly.
When Abigail heard what he said, she became certain that he wasnât at the City Hall. âOkay then. Take a picture of the City Hall front entrance and send it to me-â
12:13 Sun, 24 Sept Chapter 7 Buty With Widowhood Sean immediately hung up the phone before she could finish her sentence.
2/6 So, she tossed her phone aside as she cursed in a low voice, âUgh! Sc*mbag!â
As for Luna, who was tidying up the clothes she had changed halfway, she joined in and rudely ragged at Sean as well. âWhat sort of undignified thing did he do again?â
A still fuming Abigail replied waspishly, âGod knows! I admit that itâs my fault.
that Iâm running late, so I have patiently asked him to wait a while. It turns out that he, too, didnât go to the City Hall. Yet, he has the audacity to lose his temper!â Hah! He thinks he has the right to do whatever he wants while I donât, eh?!
As soon as Abigail said that, Luna received a message on her phone. She picked it up and took a look at the message before rolling her eyes with contempt. Afterward, she handed her phone to Abigail, asking her to read it too. âSean is paying a lot of money to reserve an appointment with you the day after tomorrow.â
Sun, 24 Sept Chapter 7 Busy With Widowhood 3/6 Well, to be precise, Sean wanted to meet Alana. Well, well. For someone who couldnât wait another 20 minutes for me, this b*stard sure has plenty of time to make an appointment to meet Alana.
Such thoughts made Abigail nearly crush the phone. Her gaze turned chilly as she said, âIâm busy with widowhood!â
At present, she only had one thought in her mind, which was divorce. I need to immediately finalize our divorce!
So, Luna retrieved her phone to play with it for a second before quoting Abigailâs statement and replying to her assistant.
After that, she placed her phone down and analyzed the situation. âSean wants to meet you probably because he wants you to make a dress for Joan.
East Joy Talent will hold a fashion gala next month, and I heard she is also on the list. Considering how private this event is, I suppose Sean has spent a large sum of money just to get her in.â
Perhaps she was numb at this point, for she no longer felt as heartache as Chapter 7 Busy With Widowhood before when she heard Lunaâs words. She merely twitched the corner of her lips in disdain. Of course, he spends heavily on this. After all, not only is he getting Joan in, but he is also looking for dresses designed by Alana to aid her.
4/6 When Luna saw that Abigail was showing no reaction, she couldnât hold back her temper and slammed her hand hard on the table. âAre you for real?!
Youâre actually allowing his mistress to bully you?!â
Meanwhile, Abigail remained expressionless. âIf you have an idea to make Sean go bankrupt, I donât mind joining in.â It takes two to tango. Joan wonât stand a chance to interfere with our marriage if Sean hasnât decided to cheat on me. Ultimately, Sean was the one who failed to stay loyal to our marriage.
Besides, why should I downgrade myself by quarreling with a mistress who doesnât even know who I am?
Abigail wiped her face and hurriedly changed the subject when she saw that Luna was like a dog on a bone, refusing to let this matter go. âDidnât you mention an important client last time?â
12/13 Sun, 24 Sept Chapter 7 Busy With Widowhood Luna replied in a lukewarm manner, âOh, itâs East Joy Talent. The boss happens to be in Pendorf today, so he wants to meet you and discuss some details. But I have yet to say yes.â
5/6 East Joy Talentâan entertainment agency that houses many wellâknown Aâlist actresses. Their celebrities constantly attend various fashion events, awards ceremonies, and various parties throughout the years. As a result, their demand for dress rentals is way higher than their peers. Forget next year, our entire studioâs reputation will surely reach a higher level if we manage to cooperate with them. As soon as this thought crossed Abigailâs mind, she instantly cheered up. âWhat are we waiting for? Only an idiot would let go of an opportunity to earn more money! Come! Letâs go now!â
Luna rolled her eyes and hit upon an idea when her eyes laid on Abigailâs slim waist.
At 2.00PM, Abigail and Luna arrived downstairs of the East Joy Talentâs building.
Just as Luna was about to park the car, a dashing blue supercar, which was 12:13 Sun, 24 Sept CE Chapter 7 Busy With Widowhood 6/6 diagonally behind them, drifted and drove toward the parking space that she had seen.
This caused Luna to panic as she instinctively stepped on the gas pedal.
Like a shot, the two cars hit each other with a loud bang.
