Chapter 376 Facing the Past
Upon coming out of the hotel, Abigail frowned and said, “Tristan’s attitude was too good; it doesn’t match his character.”
“I’ll have my friend ch*ck your phone.” Eric rea*sured her.
At this moment, she couldn’t help but ask, “Do you really believe he didn’t find anything? If he didn’t, he would be furious, not accepting it so calmly as he did today.”
He nodded in agreement but didn’t know the reason.
Nonetheless, she decided not to dwell on this matter and returned to the hotel with Eric.
After taking a shower back at the hotel, she slowly contemplated the situation with the TV station and Tristan.
Theoretically speaking, L.Moon hadn’t reached a point where such a renowned TV station had to personally request a collaboration. Moreover, Tristan had initially shown a clear disdain for her, showing he didn’t have any special affection for her.
People like him had seen many attractive women. He just thought that since she came to him so willingly, he shouldn’t let the opportunity go to waste, so he went through with the whole evening banquet charade.
He was furious when Runway Capitalis was hit with negative news, but he remained calm after not finding any evidence. Did he find the person who planted the virus but couldn’t deal with it, deciding to let it slide?
While she was still pondering this, her phone vibrated several times.
She picked up her phone and saw that an unknown number had sent her a video message.
She was initially hesitant to click on it, but Abigail recalled that her phone didn’t contain much data at the moment, so it wouldn’t make much difference even if it carried a virus.
When she opened the first video, she saw Tristan venting angrily, but as it progressed, he suddenly calmed down.
She noticed the time of the recording, which coincided with the moment when Tristan left to answer a phone call during the shoot that day.
After that, she clicked the second video, which only had audio and no visuals. “She planted the virus in Abigail’s phone?” The audio then switched to another conversation.
Abigail’s heart was pounding after she finished listening to it. She replied to the sender, ‘How did you get this? Why are you sending it to me?”

Yet, the sender didn’t respond.
On the other hand, Sean had Xavien destroy the phone after sending the messages.
“You’re doing good deeds without leaving a trace now, ch?” Kevin teased, smiling.
Sean’s eyes were cold. “Just don’t let Tristan find out. Don’t bother me with what I do.”
Kevin nodded and narrowed his charming eyes slightly. “Abigail has some skills. She actually tried. to use Tristan to help her find the person who planted the virus. It’s a shame that they’re all part of the same flock. Otherwise, her plan would have been a perfect checkmate.”
Abigail first intentionally released negative news about the show and had Ronaldo investigate the person who had sent her the messages, only to discover that the senders were lying. She then had him take the two people to the police station, where they gave statements and filmed a video to clarify things. By doing this, she completely cleared her name..
In the meantime, she also told Tristan that she did not know the screenshots, suggesting that it might be due to a virus. With that, she shifted the blame onto the person who had planted the virus and could use Tristan’s extensive resources to investigate. It was a meticulous plan, a*suming that Tristan and the person trying to harm her didn’t know each other.
Sean pressed his l*ps together and spoke after a brief silence. “If Tristan realizes this, he will undoubtedly make it difficult for her during the recording.”
“Don’t worry about that. With Eric there, even if something significant happens, he’ll protect her.” Kevin said with a smirk.
Hearing that, Sean kicked Kevin’s chair, sending him knocking into a nearby wall. Kevin was frustrated. “I’m just telling the truth. What are you? An autocrat? Can’t I even tell the truth?”
“Your truth is something I don’t want to hear. Shut your mouth.” Sean’s face was cold.
“I’m your ride-or-die when you need my help, redundant when you don’t. Why do I have such a cruel friend?” Kevin clutched his chest, looking mournful.
Sean glared at him. “Look into this program and see if they do have any shady dealings.”
Though Kevin snorted, he didn’t refuse.
“You know, two people working on the same show can easily develop feelings for each other!” Kevin couldn’t help but add after a moment of silence.
Sean looked at him. “Abigail told me that she would choose any man except me.”
“Have you given up, then?” Kevin slid his chair closer to Sean.

I’m not sure.” As Sean spoke, he looked at the computer, which reflected his slightly lost expression.
Kevin was surprised that he gave such an answer, considering he was usually confident and
strategic.
Three years might be a short time for me, but for Abigail, every moment was tormenting.” Scan slowly explained.
The three years he had neglected were torture for Abigail. When confronted with the pain she had endured in their marriage, he suddenly became at a loss. He knew very well that everything he did was in vain, and it was already too late. When Joan came to him, he still had a chance, but unfortunately, he didn’t cherish it.
Kevin patted his shoulder. “Congratulations, you’ve finally learned to understand the hardship at woman faces in marriage. So, are you going to invest the three years that Abigail spent educating you in love and understanding into another woman, becoming the perfect husband for the latter?”
