Chapter 529 The Sudden Visit
Upon arriving at L.Moon and seeing Abigail still seated at her desk, buried under a pile of documents, Luna approached her cautiously, scanning the surroundings.
“If you’re free, could you help me with these documents?” Abigail suddenly looked up and asked.
Luna straightened up and stared at her, holding back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
“Get straight to the point,” Abigail closed the document file, leaned back in a boss-like posture, and looked at Luna with her chin raised.
“You’ve already dealt with the online backlash regarding Sean’s affairs, so why are you still working on these matters?” In other words, Abigail should be focusing on Sean’s affairs instead of these tasks.
“I can only offer minimal support in condemning the public. The rest is up to him. Whether he lives or dies, it’s none of my concern,” she replied before picking up another document to read.-
Why should I bother when Cameron is working so hard to keep it from me?
Furthermore, he is Sean’s confidant and one of the people Sean trusts the most. It’s clear that everything he does is under Sean’s instruction.
“But I want to know. After all, I was the foolish one who insisted on getting involved in Kelly’s affairs-”
Calmly, Abigail interrupted, “Luna, you’re not foolish. The things you did were for my sake. If someone needs to be held accountable, it should be me.”
“Friends help each other. Anyway, I’m here to work now. If you don’t want to work, that’s fine.” Luna took a seat next to her, grabbed a document file, and started reading.
Although Abigail appeared to be leisurely reading the document, she was actually contemplating the decline in Graham International’s stock price.
Sean could easily turn the situation around by appearing in public at such a critical moment.
Yet, he does nothing.
Luna and Abigail busied themselves with work until it was time to leave.
As the sun began to set, Luna put down the company seal, turned to Abigail, and suggested, “Josh has invited us to join him for dinner. How about you come with me?”
“No, thank you. I don’t want to see anyone from the Pearsons for the time being,” Abigail replied flatly.
Indeed, I currently intend to make Josh suffer the consequences.
After all, none of this would have happened if Kelly, whom the Pearsons had taken in, hadn’t caused all these troubles.
Besides, I know very well what Josh’s parents’ motives are in trying so hard to get close to me now, but I don’t want to pay attention to them.
So, now that Kelly is gone, they suddenly remember my existence?
What do they take me for? A substitute for their lost daughter?

“Oh,” Luna responded. She then picked up her phone and texted Josh at a leisurely pace.
Abigail stood up, grabbed her coat from the side, and explained, “I’m not saying that I hate Josh. I’m just tired of his parents’ current behavior.”
“I understand,” Luna said.
With that, Abigail hummed, put on her coat, and left without looking back.
However, instead of asking the driver, to take her to the restaurant, she hailed a cab today.
