Chapter 298 Good Intentions Rejected Once Again
Abigail couldn’t help but glance at herself after his actions. When she realized what was going on, she turned around, somewhat embarrassed. “It’s not that painful. I won’t really feel anything as long as I don’t bend my back doing anything strenuous.”
“Should we do this here or in the bedroom?” Sean looked at her calmly as his tone left no room for refusal.
“I’ll have Luna help me. You should go home. I appreciate what you did in Capitalis, and my grandmother does, too. However, it’s not suitable for you to apply the ointment for me.”
Sean looked at her and asked calmly. “Are you worried that I’ll do something to you?”
“You know very well that it’s not what I meant,” she answered placidly.
Sean’s eyes were like a deep abyss that could captivate one’s soul. “I won’t do anything to you. I’ll rest once I’m done.”
Abigail averted her gaze. “Just go home. You’ve had a busy day, and you’re definitely tired. Besides, I still have my grandmother.”
After she finished speaking, she walked toward her room.
Sean stood up and intoned deeply. “Very well. You can seek help on your own. Your body is your own. So, it won’t make a difference no matter how worried others might be if you don’t take care of it yourself.”
He was willing to compromise, but he wasn’t about to allow Abigail to think he was using the incident involving Analise’s rescue to pressure her into submission.
“Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Graham,” Abigail said sincerely.
After he left, she sat on the couch for a while before heading to her bedroom.
Sean didn’t immediately leave once he sat in his car. Instead, he lit a cigarette.
Abigail was truly not about to give him any opportunity to get closer.
After he finished his cigarette, he was about to leave when Colby called.
Colby usually went to bed early. So, a call this late was quite surprising to Sean.
“Grandpa, what’s wrong?” Sean answered the call and inquired softly.
“I saw the news. Did she go to Capitalis? Is she okay? The news was quite alarming, and I couldn’t sleep properly, Colby blurted question after question in his concern.

Sean smiled and reassured him. “She’s fine. I had my people step in, and neither she nor her grandmother were harmed.”
“That’s good… That’s good. Why did she go to Capitalis? Oh, by the way, your grandmother has been getting close to Joan these past few days. She even invited her to our house. Aren’t you going to do anything about this?” Colby felt a strong aversion to Joan.
