Upon seeing that Abigail was not receptive to their requests, the others had to give up.
Throughout the day, countless people asked if they could use her application sooner.
After politely declining them all, she felt exhausted.
At noon, she went to her assigned guest room to rest after finishing her meal.
Abigail sat by the window out of habit and sent Sean a message.
'Has anyone from the Pearsons disturbed Grandma?'
For some reason, even though it wasn't anything important, Abigail couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Soon, Sean replied to her message.
'No. Grandma is fine. Don't worry.'
She felt relieved after reading the message.
'How is the trade fair going? Are you getting used to it?'
'There's nothing to get used to; the trade fair is going well. We've secured many foreign trade deals, which will benefit Fairy Meadow's future development.'
All in all, Abigail was very satisfied with today.
After chatting with Sean for a while, Abigail looked out the window and suddenly saw Howard getting into a car. The car was driven by someone she remembered as Adam Strong.
She quickly switched her phone to camera mode and zoomed in.
After confirming it was Adam's car, she couldn't help but frown.
Howard knew that Adam was eager to get priority access to the application, yet he still got into Adam's car.
Abigail didn't immediately call Howard. She wanted to see what he was up to.
She sat by the window for an hour.
However, Adam and Howard didn't return.
She was getting restless, and just as she was about to call Howard, his call came in.
She answered the call, but before she could say anything, she heard Adam's voice on the other end.
"Miss Quinn, Mr. Creed is here with me. He violated my mistress, and here's my condition. If you agree, my mistress won't go to the police. If you don't agree, Fairy Meadow will face a scandal." Adam's voice contained a sinister and cunning tone.
Abigail narrowed her eyes. "Are you trying to scheme against me? I saw that you took him away and even recorded a video. Why don't you let your mistress report to the police?"
Howard was unreliable. She had turned a blind eye to him receiving gifts occasionally, as it was common in this industry, but he didn't stay vigilant at all, even in a foreign place!
