After a moment of contemplation, Abigail asked Sean, "Do you know anyone at the hospital in Capitalis?"
His interest piqued, Sean questioned, "What's wrong? Are you looking for a doctor to treat his leg?"
"No, it's not about Andrew's leg issue. His father will take care of it. His father needs a good hospital to work at. If you know someone, you can help out. Then, seeking Andrew's help won't be a problem." Abigail didn't want Andrew to help Sean for nothing.
Even though there was some reconciliation between her and Sean at this point, Andrew's value couldn't be determined by her words alone.
Sean should give the father and son the respect they deserve.
"Alright, then. Whatever you say," Sean stated, taking a step back and holding Abigail's hand, gently massaging it. "Stay here for a few days, hmm? There's not much for you to handle in Capitalis anyway."
"You're wrong. There's a lot going on at my company. In the six months I've been away, L.Moon almost went bankrupt because of a few shareholders." Abigail withdrew her hand.
Sean cleared his throat. He should have helped her, but he had been stubborn for the past six months. Even though he knew that L.Moon would eventually go bankrupt if things continued this way, he still didn't intervene.
"To tell you the truth, I resented you for a while when I came back," Sean said seriously.
Abigail stared at him in silence.
"I hated that you didn't tell me anything. From going abroad to save you and coming back empty-handed, not to mention facing debts… I did feel a bit frustrated." Sean sighed softly, his gaze calm as he looked at Abigail. "I'm sorry."
"I was thinking that I could endure it for a while longer, but I don't want to see you suffer. I thought, isn't love about wanting the other person to be happy?" Abigail felt wronged on the plane.
But at this moment, she felt it didn't matter anymore.
They loved each other, and when such things happened, Sean would definitely not feel good either.
Upon hearing Abigail's words, Sean felt she was still too soft-hearted.
When they were separated by thousands of miles, they held grudges against each other.
But once they met, all those tiny bits of resentment were engulfed by overwhelming love.
Holding Abigail in his arms again, he held her tightly, his lips gently brushing against her warm ear. "Honey, let's get married!"
"We can't for now. Let's wait for Luna." Abigail leaned against him, her tone gentle.
Sean's heart beat steadily, thumping lightly against her chest.
After a moment, he answered indulgently, "Okay, we'll wait for her."
They were almost completely separated because of Luna, so she had to come back to witness their marriage.
"If you're done with your plans here, I'll go find her. If it doesn't work out, you stay in Eswadia. I might be better at handling things now, and I can use a gun too," Abigail said slowly in his arms.
