I Want a Divorce (Abigail and Sean) novel Chapter 821

The words caught Irene's attention.

Catherine wiped her face and smiled. "How could we not love her? It's just that she was mischievous and disobedient when she was young, so we sent her to stay with her grandparents when we were busy with work at that time—"

"Who are you trying to deceive?" Kevin interjected, "You were irritated by the daughter born from this unexpected situation and planned to abandon her, but her grandparents intervened, so they took her to the countryside. From her childhood to adulthood, you didn't provide any financial support to the grandparents."

Abigail furrowed her brow and turned to look at Irene.

Irene lowered her gaze, her expression filled with sorrow.

Abigail grasped her hand. "Remember, they didn't offer you any support, so you don't have to consider them as your parents. If they didn't raise you, they have no right to be called your parents!"

Irene looked at Abigail with teary eyes and nodded softly. "I understand."

"How much is the student loan?" Abigail inquired.

"4006. I've only been working for less than two months, and I don't have that much money. They said they would assist me if I went on a blind date, so I agreed. Alana, I'm sorry, I never intended to pursue your boyfriend," Irene replied softly.

"You did nothing wrong. It's acceptable to prioritize yourself. Besides, we were already separated at that time, and he had the right to move on and find a new girlfriend. You have nothing to feel guilty about," Abigail stated calmly.

4006 was a mere drop in the bucket for her.

However, this small sum of money posed a significant obstacle for Irene.

"I will repay this money for you. You can work at L.Moon, strive hard, and when you have sufficient funds in the future, you can return it to me." Abigail touched her face.

Irene felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude and embraced Abigail, whispering, "Thank you."

It was far more beneficial for her to earn money through her own efforts rather than receiving direct charity.

"My only condition is that regardless of your future endeavors, do not associate with them. Even if they take legal action against you, you need not pay them any heed," Abigail said firmly, her tone tinged with anger.

Irene sniffled. "My grandparents also advised me the same, I remember."

Abigail took her hand and led her away.

Kevin glared at Catherine coldly. "If you ever attempt to approach her again, your family will face bankruptcy at any moment, do you understand?"

After delivering his warning, he signaled for Sean to leave as well.

Sean shot a cold look at Catherine, snorted, and departed.

Without learning from their mistakes, they seemed oblivious to proper conduct.

Slyvie noticed Sean's hostile gaze and asked Catherine, "What does he mean?"

Why didn't they take steps to prevent an innocent girl from suffering for over twenty years?

Sean gave Kevin a significant glance.

Irene's hometown was far from Pendorf. She packed her belongings to move into the temporary rental house.

"You didn't even prepare a proper place for yourself?" Abigail was a bit angry upon seeing her living in such a messy urban village.

The rent here ranged from three to five hundred dollars a month, and the security was very poor. Irene's place was a converted corridor that was extremely cramped.

Kevin watched as she lifted the bedboard to reveal the limited space for movement, with a small electric stove on the balcony outside. His eyes filled with mixed emotions upon seeing these.

He had never experienced living in such conditions before... Is this just ten square meters that one person can occupy?

Even the entrance hall of his house was larger than this.

"I don't want to live with them." Irene squatted on the ground to pack up her few clothes.

No one knew that feeling of being watched when she returned, the sense that everyone despised her. She felt more at ease in this tiny place than with them.

Abigail felt a tightness in her chest and didn't speak for a long time.

She knew many girls like this, but it wasn't so uncomfortable until she saw them. It was only after seeing them that she felt angry.
