Chapter 12
Colby had been an upright man all his life and would never tolerate
something like this. Even if Abigail wanted to have a child, Sean would have
to be a willing party as well.
Although Abigail was highly discomfited by Lina’s words, she only answered
obediently, “Okay.”
Colby couldn’t help but frown upon his wife’s actions. “The kids rarely come
home as it is. Don’t bring this up at every chance you’ve got.”
“Don’t deny it. You want a grandchild as badly as I do,” Lina snapped.
Nonetheless, he changed the topic. “Abigail, some rumors have been going
around outside recently. What do you think about them?”

Abigail maintained her usual meek demeanor. “I trust that Sean will handle it
well.”

Her answer was well–received by Colby. “Ignore what the ma*ses are saying.
You’re the only granddaughter–in–law the Graham Family acknowledges.
That woman who isn’t recognized by us will never enter our doors.”
“You should work harder and bear him a child. Then, he’ll come home
naturally,” Lina added. When Colby was about to lose his temper, she quickly
stopped herself from saying more. “Okay, I’ll stop. Stay here for the night. I’ve
prepared your favorite food for dinner.”
Abigail wanted to say something, but Lina had already risen to her feet and
paced into the kitchen happily.
When Colby’s stern, sharp eyes fell on Abigail’s face, they turned soft and
gentle. “Don’t take Lina’s words to heart. She just wants you and Sean to have
a blissful, complete family of your own.”
“Yes, I know,” she answered softly.
He sighed at the sight of her looking so dim as though the fire in her had
gone out. “How is your grandmother doing?”

Abigail’s face softened into a warm look at the mention of her grandmother.
In fact, she appeared a great deal happier. “She’s doing well.”

“Is she still unwilling to move here and live with you?” Colby inquired.
Abigail was in a trance for a couple of seconds before answering, “She’s used
to life in a village and finds the city too noisy for her liking, but I’ve asked
some villagers to help me keep a lookout for her.”
Colby was an old friend of Abigail’s grandparents, Theodore Quinn and
Analise Stein, and she chatted with him about some trivial stuff regarding
Analise. She even knew how often Analise fed her chickens today, which
showed how attentive she was to Analise.
Colby felt as though he was looking at another person through her face as he
regarded her. “Theodore is lucky to have you.”
Abigail paused for a second before breaking into a smile. “No, I’m the lucky
one to be brought up by them.”

Updates?...
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. Abigail blames Sean for her situation but it’s due to her not being honest. They need to settle this, get married and have a child of their own....
