Chapter 587 Men Cannot Be Trusted
No matter how much they’d chastise her, Abigail didn’t care. She worked with Fairy Meadow because she wanted L.Moon to make a name for itself, but if Howard proved to be incompetent, she could go for better brands.
The shareholder had nothing to say.
“We only worked together for profit. I have not done anything to sabotage Fairy Meadow. I did everything I could for it. It made hundreds of millions overnight in the shopping district. You made money off that deal, and instead of keeping Howard in line, you want me to deal with the mess he made? I don’t have time for this. I’m busy,” said Abigail.
The shareholder heaved a sigh. “I understand. I’ll talk to him.” He hung up.
Frustrated, Abigail tucked her phone away.
Analise looked at her, worried. “Work’s really hard, isn’t it?”
“Yeah, but that’s how humans are. We have to worry about a lot of stuff.” Abigail smiled.
Analise sat her down on a bench and looked at the sky. Slowly, she said, “The sky here is lighter than Pendorf’s don’t you think? And it doesn’t have a lot of clouds.”
Abigail looked at the sky. She nodded. “Yeah.”
“You deal with your problem with the Pearsons. I’m going back to Pendorf once I leave the hospital, and I’m not coming back unless necessary,” said Analise softly. She had a feeling her time was coming. She had to go back to Pendorf, where her home was.
“Grandma…” Abigail held Analise’s hand. She was reluctant to see her go.
“I know you don’t want to say goodbye, but I can’t leave your grandpa alone. I have to go back to him,” said Analise gently.
Abigail shook her head. “But I’m the one still alive. You should stay here with me.”
“Abigail, I’ve been feeling uneasy lately. If I get home too late, I can’t get buried in my home soil. I wouldn’t stop worrying about you, but now that I’m going to die, I’m starting to miss your grandpa,” answered Analise softly
Abigail held Analise’s hand tightly. “Don’t say that. The doctor said you’re healthy.”
“It’s a depressing place, the hospital. I keep overthinking whenever I’m here.” Analise smiled bitterly.

Abigail smiled. “Don’t think too much about it. I’m here with you.”
“You shouldn’t sacrifice yourself. Sean did enough. You should accept his love,” said Analise earnestly.
“I know,” answered Abigail, resigned. Her phone kept ringing, all because of Howard’s case. Abigail dealt with the phone calls, and she sighed. “I can’t even catch a break.”
“Let’s go back to the room.” Analise didn’t want to waste Abigail’s time, seeing how busy
she was.
Analise had fallen asleep when Cameron came back. Abigail was beside the bed, doing designs. A moment of hesitation later, Cameron said, “Can you come with me?”
“Okay.” Abigail guessed that it was about his relationship. She turned off her tablet and left the ward with Cameron.
Cameron came to a quiet place. Frustrated, he looked at Abigail. “She wouldn’t pick it up today. Did she really give up on me?”
“You could’ve gone to her house and asked,” said Abigail tartly. You’re a guy. Why are you so hesitant?
“I did, but there wasn’t anyone there,” said Cameron.
Abigail’s face fell. “Did you go to her school, then?”
“No,” said Cameron. He was too embarra*sed to go to her school.
“Check that place. If she’s not there, she might be in trouble. You’re agile, aren’t you? Sneak into her house. You don’t want her to be locked in the house by her Abigail, a little hesitant.
Cameron left right away. “See you later.”
parents,” said
Abigail watched him, cocking an eyebrow. He says he doesn’t care, but he leaves so fast. Men. They can’t be trusted. Abigail came back to the ward, but before she could take a seat, Josh and Luna showed up.
Luna asked, “Are you going to ignore Howard’s case? He called me too.”
“Keep an eye on Analise,” Abigail told Josh, then she and Luna left the room.
“What’s wrong with Analise?” asked Luna after they came out. “I had no idea she got hospitalized.”

Abigail ma*saged her temples. “It’s her condition. She keeps feeling she’s going to die soon. Got too nervous and fainted.”
“She probably knows she’s not in the best of health, so she got scared.” Luna held Abigail’s hand tightly.
Abigail nodded. “Ignore Howard’s case. I’m going to teach him a lesson, or he’s not going to stop doing what he’s doing.”
Luna nodded. “If that’s what you want.”
“I’ve sent my men to look into this. He’s taken a lot of bribes during his tenure. If I don’t teach him a lesson, he won’t stop doing this. Even if he gets off the hook this time, he’s going to cause more problems down the line,” said Abigail. He would only serve the company wholeheartedly if he could learn a painful lesson from this. He would never try to take any bribes from the clients.
