Chapter 209 Leaving Sean Behind
Sean wore a thoughtful expression as he considered the possibility.
After a moment, he spoke. “We can’t be sure for now. However, if Abby has any connection to the Pearsons, it would explain why they are helping Eric. Go and investigate the relationship between the Pearsons and the Davidsons in detail. The more detailed, the better.”
He believed that if they were looking for a family member, it shouldn’t be Eric who was at the forefront of this particular matter.
So, he suspected that there was another reason behind Eric’s special treatment of Abigail.
The next day, Abigail had planned to explore Capitalis a bit before heading back to Ouisford. To her surprise, she received a call from Analise early in the morning.
“Where are you right now?” Analise’s voice was heavy, and there was a hint of anger.
Abigail replied quickly. “I’m handling some matters in Capitalis…”
“In that case, can you come back today? I have something to discuss with you.” Analise’s tone suddenly softened.
Abigail couldn’t help but wonder if her meeting with Josh had been discovered by Analise.
She agreed immediately as she did not want to worry Analise.
Abigail informed Luna and headed to the airport after ending the call.
Sean, who had overslept by half an hour, had intended to invite Abigail to breakfast. Unfortunately, Luna informed him that Abigail had already left.
Abigail was enjoying some pastries in the airport lounge when she received a call from Sean.
“Why didn’t you wait for me when you left?!” The moment Sean’s call connected, he scolded her angrily.
“I was in a hurry and forgot to wait for you. You could have come by yourself,” Abigail replied somewhat guiltily.
She had forgotten about Sean while rushing to catch a cab. Regardless, she did decide to shoot him a text after she had her meal once the car had started moving.
She didn’t expect him to call so quickly.
“Abigail, are you even human? It seems like I’m the only one worried about

”
She took a bite of her noodles. “You were sleeping so deeply in the hotel. Why would I worry about you? Do I have to make this trip with you for it to be considered as me taking you seriously?”
Alas, Sean immediately hung up the call after hearing her response.
“What a temper… Abigail held her phone and felt somewhat helpless.
Sean, who had hung up the call, tossed his phone aside.
Cameron stood by his side and asked in a low voice, “Would you like to order breakfast?”
“Breakfast? What’s the point? If you want to cat, just have breakfast alone. Stop bothering me,” Sean hissed with a scowl.
Cameron nodded and made the executive decision to leave the room.
He had grown accustomed to being the target of Sean’s anger for trivial reasons. It was quite sad, but that was the reality of his life now.
Eventually, Sean decided to take the day off after sulking for half an hour.
As soon as Abigail returned to Pendorf, she headed straight to the Quinn Village.
At this moment, in the Quinn Residence, Analise was hosting several guests.
Her expression was solemn, and she had a lot on her mind.
