Xavien hadn't expected things to turn out this way. He looked at Sean with concern, his heart filled with anger, confusion, and a bit of hatred.
Abigail was unaware that Sean had nearly depleted his wealth for her, causing a stir throughout Eswadia.
The company's finances were in trouble too. Yet, he was single-handedly supporting L. Moon, because it was a testament to Abigail's achievements. He took great care, exerted all his effort, and guarded her accomplishments.
Even though Graham International was on the verge of collapse, he still prioritized Abigail's company.
Simond's men evacuated.
The colossal wheel ship slowly vanished into the vast ocean under the moonlight.
Kevin arrived too late to even catch a glimpse of them.
Frustrated, he slammed the gun in his hand to the ground. "Abigail has gone mad! To actually leave voluntarily with Simond! You spent so much money—"
"Have you said enough?" Sean calmly interjected.
Kevin felt wronged. He stepped forward, gripping Sean's shoulder. "Do you realize the extent of your debt? You've spent so much money on a woman without a second thought, but she doesn't appreciate it!"
His eyes began to redden as he continued, "The love you pursued so desperately has now brought you to this point. All of us trying to help you can't even make a difference anymore, do you understand?"
Due to Abigail, this business tycoon was going to fall.
Anyone could now trample on him!
Kevin couldn't fathom such a scenario.
He released Sean, moved to the side, and squatted down, clutching his hair, filled with remorse. "Why? I should have intervened from the start. Spending so much money on a woman, I was crazy; you were crazy; we were all crazy!"
Sean lowered his gaze and toyed with the gun in his hand. His tone was composed, "It's alright. At least I won't be preoccupied anymore, won't blame myself, won't feel like I didn't do enough. And I know she's living well with Simond."
At least he knew that Simond was willing to come ashore for her, letting her be hospitalized.
That means she must have quickly captured Simond's heart, right?
Kevin choked softly. "But what about the debts you owe?"
He just felt sorry for Sean, tirelessly searching for Abigail day and night, spending all his money and time. Xavien even fainted several times from exhaustion, but the outcome was this.
If they could bring back Abigail, even if Sean was in debt, he would have some consolation.
But Abigail chose Simond.
"We can earn the money back slowly. It's fine," Sean said, then threw away the gun he had treasured, "Let's go."
From now on, everything about Abigail had nothing to do with him!
Xavien, with reddened eyes, helped Kevin up, and they both trailed after Sean as he departed.
…
After returning, Abigail had been sitting in her room, hugging her knees, silent.
