Chapter 98 Never–Ending Saga
The two lay away from each other in silence.
Sean studied the teeth marks on his wrist, his brows knitted in frustration.
Abigail was filled with a multitude of grievances, but she had no outlet. She couldn’t blame
Before marrying Sean, she never imagined marriage would be like this.
There was no love, only bitterness that had to be swallowed deep down.
anyone.
After a few minutes, Sean, thinking Abigail had calmed down, tried to hold her, but he received
another kick instead.
Fuming, he turned away from her. “Forget about sharing my bed in the future!”
“Who wants to share? As if I’m dying to,” she retorted coldly.
She just wanted to return to her own room. From now on, she’d avoid any intimate moments with Sean. She didn’t want him suspecting her of scheming to give birth to a Graham child.
During this time together, Sean discovered that Abigail could be quite fiery.
As the night grew darker, Abigail finally closed her eyes, exhausted from a day of running around
and enduring acupuncture.
Sean couldn’t sleep. He kept thinking, who could be behind this plot against Abigail?
Abigail’s social circle was small. It shouldn’t have escalated to this even if she’d offended someone.
The only possibility was that someone was aware of his marriage, and they targeted Abigail through
his grandmother, who was eager for a child.
His marriage was in secret, so it seemed the perpetrator knew about his hidden marriage.
The whole hotel seemed asleep, with only Joan sitting by the window, occasionally checking her phone.
Just when she was getting a bit impatient, her phone rang.
Joan immediately pressed the answer button. “Hey, what’s the deal with you? What’s going on?”
The voice on the other end sounded pleased. “Remember when you told me about that a*sistant using Sean’s wife to one–up you? Well, today, Sean’s wife is having a tough time.”
Joy immediately lit up Joan’s face. “What kind of tough time?”
“I’ve been digging for days and discovered Sean’s wife is infertile. Sean’s grandma has been searching for doctors everywhere. So, I took advantage of the situation and got a friend who studies. traditional medicine to give her an acupuncture treatment. I bet she’s in pain right now and wishing for death.” The guy’s voice was filled with a vindictive satisfaction.
At this news, Joan softly asked, “Is Sean’s wife attractive? Any pictures?”
“No pictures, as his grandma had been hovering around the whole time, so I couldn’t get a shot. But don’t get too hung up on this. Remember why you’re by his side.” The guy’s tone turned cold. “Joan, I’ve got your back if you’re being wronged. But you’ve got to step up too.”
“Got it. Thank you,” Joan cooed sweetly.
After hanging up, Joan stretched her arms with a smile, light dancing in her
eyes.
Although she didn’t know who Sean’s wife was, she couldn’t help but feel gleeful at the thought of his wife getting a taste of her own medicine.
The next morning, Abigail discreetly sl*pped back into her room after making sure no one was
watching.
She kept her health issue to herself without letting the set’s medical team in on it.
In the morning, Luna was surprised when Abigail knocked on her door. “You’re just taking one day
off?”
“I only took one day off, and you acted like it’s the end of the world. So, I’m coming back,” Abigail replied with a grin.
Upon hearing this, Luna gave her a friendly pat on the shoulder. “Oh my, I was just worried we’d be found out. Come in, come in.”
Abigail was pulled into the room by Luna.
“So, yesterday, Kevin had a private chat with Damian and Victor. He said all the people involved in the incident would be kicked out of the show. Can you guess what happened?” Luna had a look of eager anticipation on her face.
Abigail raised an eyebrow. “Spill it.”
Luna laughed with a hint of mockery. “The people involved started pointing fingers at each other. The person buying the medicine claimed Damian asked him to buy it, while Damian tried to pin the blame on Nina. Of course, Nina vehemently denied everything. Now they’re launching another investigation.”
Abigail wasn’t surprised that Nina was involved. As long as Alana was out of the show, their chances of winning something would be significantly higher.
Seeing Abigail remain silent, Luna added, “Take some time in a few days to go out again. I’ve looked at a few houses, and the pictures the agent sent me seemed quite promising. I just haven’t confirmed which one it is, so you’ll have to go check them out in person.”
“Alright.” Abigail nodded.
Just as Luna was about to continue, Abigail’s phone rang.
She took out her phone and saw it was a call from Cornelie and signaled Luna to keep quiet.
Luna leaned in to sneak a peek at Abigail’s phone and immediately scowled in displeasure.
