Chapter 550 The Pearson Family Is A Snake Pit 

Upon hearing Colby’s words, Abigail couldn’t help but reflect on how, despite all the twists. and turns, they had ended up right back where they started. 

“Thank you, Grandpa,” she replied gratefully. 

Colby gently patted her hand and said, “It’s not a big deal. They just want you to reconnect with your roots. As long as they didn’t abandon you, everything can be negotiated. If they did abandon you. we’ll simply ignore them. We won’t let them claim you without facing the consequences of their actions once you become famous!” 

Lina nodded in agreement and added, “That’s right. They only have themselves to blame for being too weak to protect a child. I don’t know if I’m saying the right thing or if Abigail will listen to my advice, but it’s all I can say.” 

Abigail composed herself and, accompanied by Analise and Sean, headed to Capitalis. 

Although Sean had planned to remain in hiding for a while longer, he understood that Abigail’s family matter took precedence. 

When they arrived in Capitalis, Abigail’s expression darkened upon seeing Josh waiting to pick her up. Luna quickly rushed over and grabbed her hand, while Analise offered her support by holding Abigail’s other hand. 

Sean took the initiative to walk beside Josh and asked, “How is Old Mr. Pearson?” 

“He’s in surgery. Even if he doesn’t make it, at least he’ll have met Abigail,” Josh replied, his voice filled with intense sorrow. 

Abigail felt nothing upon hearing this news. After all, Old Mr. Pearson was just a stranger to her. They had met a few times in the past, but she had forgotten what he looked like. 

Sean glanced at her, relieved to see that she didn’t seem affected. 

At the hospital, Lawrence and Scarlett were overjoyed to see Abigail. 

Lawrence approached Abigail first, scanning her up and down before finally saying. “Tin sorry, Abby. I was foolish back then. I failed to take care of you and lost you.” 

Abigail stared at him coldly, not saying a word. 

Meanwhile, Scarlett was already in tears. 

Patricia’s face stiffened and she visibly appeared unhappy upon witnessing Abigail’s reaction.

She felt no love for her long-lost granddaughter, especially since Abigail had shown no concern for Lily and even sabotaged her. 

Realizing that Patricia wouldn’t speak, Lawrence continued, “We didn’t plan on disturbing. you, but Dad suddenly had a cerebral hemorrhage. You’ve always been on his mind. He talks about you every day…” 

Interrupting him abruptly, Abigail asked, “How was I lost back then?” 

Just then, Analise asked, “Where is Martha? Are Vincent and Martha scheming back home?” 

“Why?” Scarlett asked, wiping away her tears. 

“Back then, when I came to Capitalis to find your family, I was almost killed at the bus station. Martha was behind that, wasn’t she?” Analise had initially planned to let bygones be bygones since she could stay with Abigail, but certain issues needed clarification when the time was right. 

Sean looked at Analise, knowing that she was about to reveal the truth today. 

Abigail also looked at Analise, astonishment written across her face. 

“Don’t think you can slander Vincent’s wife just because you’ve raised my granddaughter for a few years!” Patricia snapped. 

“Slander? If Martha didn’t look exactly like Scarlett, I would’ve thought your family couldn’t even tolerate the presence of a little girl. I only realized what was going on after I went home and thought about it. I don’t want Abigail to return to your family because it’s a snake pit here!” Analise furiously retorted. 

“Grandma, we’re at the hospital,” Abigail reminded her. 

The group decided to continue their conversation outside. 

Once they were outside, Lawrence sincerely asked Analise, “What happened back then?” 

“Summon Vincent and Martha now!” Analise demanded, her face dark. 

The Pearsons were all confused, but Lawrence still called Vincent. 

When Vincent and Martha arrived with Lily, they were shocked and panicked upon seeing Abigail and her group. 

Analise looked directly at Martha and immediately asked, “Because of this face, I thought Scarlett had been the one to push her own daughter into the ocean. If I hadn’t stumbled upon them by chance, Abigail would’ve drowned.”

“I didn’t understand how a mother could be so cruel to her child, but I didn’t dare say a word because I know how powerful the Pearsons are. I lived in fear day and night that Abigail would be discovered…” Analise began, her voice filled with. anger. 

Back then, Analise was one of the villagers showing guests around Quinn Village. Late one evening, a storm suddenly started, and she went to ch*ck on the tourists to ensure they were all accounted for. When she realized two of them were missing, she immediately began. searching for them. That’s when she saw Martha leading a young Abigail onto a boat. When the boat was over 300 feet away from the shore, Martha pushed Abigail overboard. 

Afterward, Martha hurried back to the village inn.
