Chapter 342 For Whom
The ladies came out of the ma*sage parlor eventually. Then, Luna saw Cameron hiding behind at tree in front of the parlor, watching them. She asked, “Did Sean follow us here again?”
“Hm?” Abigail thought Sean had come, so she looked in the direction Luna was looking. When she saw Cameron, she explained, “He didn’t. Cameron’s been following me lately. Oh, I forgot to tell you. Kelly and Josh came to Pendorf.”
“Why?” Luna frowned. She had no idea about the grudge between Abigail and the Pearsons, but Kelly left a bad impression after that transaction case.
“Kelly said she came to get a gown, but that’s not her main goal. Josh only came with her,” answered Abigail.
Luna looked miffed. “What goal does she have?”
Abigail looked at Luna and whispered, “The gown is just an excuse. She’s coming for Sean.”
Luna looked surprised. “She’s set her sights on him?”
“Yes.” Abigail nodded.
Luna chortled. “She has a good eye. Goes for the most handsome guy.”
Abigail agreed. Sean did have a look that could attract a lot of ladies, and not to mention he came. from a great family.
The ladies went to the car park, and Luna looked at Cameron, who was still following them. She asked, “He follows you around like a stalker every day?”
“He does that without even bothering to hide. It’s not stalking.” Abigail was amused.
“And he’s riding a scooter.” Luna muttered, “Not like Sean doesn’t have cars.”
“It’s just Cameron’s personal preference.” Abigail held her forehead. Ever since Cameron started following her, he let his inner self loose. First, he rode a shared bicycle. Then, he got used to it. perhaps, and got a scooter. He said it made his job easier because he could follow her car better.
At last, Abigail came back to her neighborhood and waited for him under her apartment.
Cameron approached her, still riding his scooter, with a smile. “Are you waiting for me, Ms. Quinn?”
“What’s the reason for Joan’s verdict?” she asked.
He was still on his scooter. A moment of hesitation later, he said, “You don’t have to get hung up
1/3
on the truth, Ms. Quinn. Just know who Mr. Graham did this for.”
“I have no idea at all,” said Abigail honestly. She had no clue what happened between Joan and Sean, so how should she know who he did this for?
“I see. But the results are what you wanted anyway, said Cameron.
“I want to know the truth. Can you tell me?” she asked, a little gentler.
He smiled bitterly. “You should ask Mr. Graham. It’s not like I don’t want to tell you, but this case has come to a close. If I say too much, he’ll be mad at me.”
She nodded. “Fine. I won’t ask.”
With that, she went into her apartment, after which Cameron let out a sigh and rode away. After dinner, she did not work like she always did. Instead, she sat on the windowsill and stared out at the night. Did he do it for Lina? She stayed quiet for a long time, then called Sean eventually. Quickly enough, the call was picked up.
“Kingston confessed. Did you do anything?” She wanted to start slow and ask about Kingston first. before bringing up Joan’s case.
“Nothing. Don’t worry. He confessed because the evidence was clear. No amount of pleas would work in his favor,” answered Sean calmly. If Abigail knew what he did behind the scenes, she would think she owed him. However, the mess started because of him, and it should end because of him, too. That would be the best way to do it so that she would not bear any guilt.
“So, you told him to confess?” she asked.
“More or less,” he said. Threats were a form of negotiation too, so it was technically not a lie.
She grunted. So, he must’ve called me before the trial, knowing the results wouldn’t change. Was he really in
a bad mood then?
“Any other questions?” asked Sean languidly.
“The news said you’re involved in Joan’s verdict. What did she do to cross you? The verdict came fast.” Abigail thought the progress of Joan’s case went too fast.
“She committed a crime, and they found the evidence. That’s why the verdict came fast.” He did not answer the main question, for he had planned Joan’s capture for a long time, so he could not explain things in just a few words.
Abigail was about to say something when a familiar voice on the other end spoke, “Lina, I got the best chef to cook for you.”
“Talk later,” said Sean.
2/3
Even so, Abigail could tell it was Kelly’s voice, and she cocked an eyebrow. “Sure.” She’s fast. Linking up with Lina right away, but then, with her looks and background, Lina would be more than happy to have her marry Sean.
