Chapter 1
‘Your husband has cheated on you.‘
When Abigail Quinn received the text message from her best friend, she had
just taken an ovulation injection and was resting on the bench of the
outpatient clinic, trying to suppress the piercing pain in her abdomen. Her
hair was dark and her skin as fair as snow, but there was no trace of blood on
her face now. Even so, that didn’t overshadow her stunning looks and
pa*sersby kept turning their heads to look at her.
Then, she inhaled deeply and tapped with a trembling finger, and opened the
picture on her cell phone to take a look. It was a picture of Sean Graham
holding a woman in a pink haute couture dress while walking out of a hotel.
The man’s usually cold and stoic face looked tender as he lowered his head
at the woman in the picture.
Abigail knew who that woman was, Sean’s first love, Joan Palmer.
After a while, she snapped back to her senses, searched for Sean’s number,

and called him. She waited for a long time for the busy dial tone to end and
the man’s aloof voice finally echoed from the other end of the call. “What’s
the problem?”

“Are you coming home tonight?” Actually, she wanted to ask if he even
wanted to return home.
Alas, it was clear that her call itself had already caused Sean to feel annoyed.
Thus, after a few seconds of silence, he said impatiently, “Is there an
important issue we need to discuss?”
Tears immediately welled up in her eyes, his indifferent voice stabbing her
heart like a knife, but she expertly masked her sadness. “Did you forget what
day it is today?”
They had been married in secret for three years, and except for that monthly
coitus, they rarely met with each other. Today was their wedding anniversary,
the day when he should return home. When they were in bed last month, he
promised her that he would spend the day with her.

Unfortunately, he only cut her off and grumbled in annoyance, “I’ll be back
later. Don’t worry.”

After that, he wasted no time hanging up. Abigail’s heart sank to the pits as
she listened to the monotonous dial tone. Then, he threw back her head and
composed herself by taking a few deep breaths. Finally, she called her best
friend, Luna Smith, to come and pick her up.
Ten minutes later, sounds of hurried footsteps echoed from the other end of
the corridor. The woman appeared cool and eye–catching as her clean–cut
short hair dyed in blue with streaks of silver fl*pped along with her
movements as she briskly walked down the corridor.
To Luna, the astonished looks that greeted her were no longer a surprise, and
she raised her bushy brows as she went straight to Abigail. When she saw
that Abigail’s face was so pale that she could rival a ghost at this rate, she
felt sorry but couldn’t stop herself from reprimanding her in a hushed voice,
“He’s living the life of his dreams with Joan. What’s the point of you taking the
ovulation injection?”

Chapter 1 Let’s Divorce
Abigail hung her head without a word. Her marriage with Sean was not a
4/8
happy one because it was his grandfather, Colby, who forced them together.
However, Abigail didn’t refuse the marriage when it was proposed to her and
even secretly rejoiced because nob*dy knew that she had held a torch for
Sean for many years. It was only after their marriage did she discover that
Sean had a first love named Joan Palmer, and Colby thought she was not
good enough for the Graham Family. That was why he used Abigail to make
her give up.
As Sean was too embarra*sed to acknowledge Abigail as his wife, they had
kept their marriage from the public for the past three years. Nonetheless,
Abigail didn’t care about that and thought that she would one day be able to
melt his icy heart. She hoped that one day he would be able to forget Joan

I hope you get rid of this wicked girl, Callen, (she is not worthy of Sean or any of his extended family) and Mr Hinton and let Sean and Abigail live in peace … put the drama on someone else. Colby needs to enjoy his grandchild....
Sean and Abigail need a proper wedding including the handmade dress saved by Sean. Please don’t get them into another long separation and let them be happy with children as the story continues....
Thank you for the update...
Sean is not a mind reader, Abigail needs to be explain the whole story starting with Luna’s swearing her to secrecy regarding the child, the genetic issues and Martin’s assistance in stabilizing the child’s genes so he could be genetically tested.
