Chapter 493 Cunning and Scheming
Sean didn’t reply. Instead, he unscrewed the lid of his bottle, tore off the foil cover, and took a sip.
“The taste is just average. I still prefer hand-brewed coffee,” Sean said, his tone tinged with a hint of disdain, shaking the bottle in his hand.
“I got it for you just so you would have something to drink. Why are you being so picky?” Abigail retorted, annoyed.
The two of them chatted for a while, and then Josh came out.
His
eyes were still a little red, and so was his mouth. It seemed Luna hadn’t gone easy on him.
“Is everything settled?” Abigail asked, feeling a bit awkward.
“Yeah, she’s going to Pendorf to take a break for now,” Josh replied softly.
Abigail nodded but didn’t say anything more.
“Are you coming back with me?” Josh asked Sean.
Sean’s expression was indifferent. “No, I have my own things to take care of. But let me remind you, Luna is upset because of the leaked video. Luna is indeed somewhat at fault in this matter, but don’t you think it’s necessary to investigate the person who placed the surveillance in Kelly’s room in advance? Or, perhaps the person who exposed the video?”
He didn’t directly say that Kelly was behind this, as he was considering Josh’s feelings.
“I’ve been looking into it but haven’t found any leads,” Josh said, glancing at Sean.
Sean immediately understood what he meant. After all, when Sean had sent the man Kelly sent to Pendorf into her room, it was done discreetly.
If someone wanted to avoid being discovered, it was possible.
“Well, even if you can’t find anything, it doesn’t matter. It’s your girlfriend who has been wronged after all,” Sean said casually.
Josh didn’t say anything more.
Abigail had already gone back to her office.
The two of them stood outside for a while before leaving.

Back in the office, Abigail saw Luna packing her bags.
“Aren’t you going to rest for a few days before you leave?” Abigail was still reluctant to let her
“I’ve been in Capitalis for a long time. I want to finally enjoy some time in Pendorf. After all, that’s our hometown,” Luna said with a smile, her head lowered.
Abigail nodded, and she went over to help Luna pack her clothes.
Luna finished packing her bags and left.
Abigail didn’t even have a chance to say goodbye to her as she was busy preparing for a meeting.
Sean returned to his accommodation, and Xavien called him back.
“After Luna left the Pearson Residence, she went to a pharmacy to tend to her wounds. I didn’t find anything unusual,” Xavien said in a low voice.
Sean said in a low voice, “Going to the pharmacy is normal, but something doesn’t feel right.”
Xavien fell silent.
