I Want a Divorce (Abigail and Sean) novel Chapter 888

Sean felt a surge of disdain rising within him.

"Sorry, I don't want this. Thanks for your kind intentions," he said coldly.

Callen hesitated and spoke urgently, "Why won't you listen? I finally convinced my mom! If Abigail loves you, she should understand you!"

"Yeah, Mr. Graham, avoiding trial is what matters most. As for the details, we can help you investigate slowly," Kadrick also chimed in, trying to persuade.

Sean remained silent and did not say a word.

"Mr. Graham, I really admire you and want to help you. You shouldn't have to endure this kind of suffering!" Callen added, urging him on.

"I'll think about it," Sean said calmly.

"I'll try to talk to the higher-ups, at least to buy you a few days," Kadrick immediately offered.

Sean nodded and then yawned. "Thank you both, but I'm tired. Let's call it a day."

Callen motioned for Kadrick to leave first.

"Do you have anything else?" Sean asked coldly.

"Mr. Graham, I really want to help you. I'm truly sorry for jumping the gun and posting on social media earlier. I thought I was sparing you some pain, but now I see it was a mistake. I wanted to apologize to you face-to-face, but Abigail was worried about disturbing you, so she didn't let me in. I'm genuinely sorry," Callen spoke slowly, her sincerity evident.

Sean remained silent as he fixed his gaze on her.

He understood her implication. She was suggesting that Abigail was being overly cautious by preventing her from apologizing in person.

"It was my decision for her to do so," Sean responded with indifference.

Callen paused for a moment. Her hand trembled slightly at her side before she quickly regained her composure and smiled. "It's okay. I realize this situation has caused you harm, and I acted hastily."

Sean simply observed her quietly.

Here is someone with years of experience in the entertainment industry, yet still attempts to portray herself as innocent and naive.

"I'm tired," he added, his tone weary.

Callen knew that breaking through to him would be challenging, but she wasn't deterred. She had time on her side and influential supporters backing her.

There would come a day when Sean would compromise.

As she exited the hospital room, Sean smirked to himself.

Shortly after, Xavien entered the room.

"They had a private meeting with Ms. Quinn yesterday. It was probably to put pressure on her," he reported.

Sean adjusted his earphones and listened to his music quietly before speaking up. "Seems like this is tied to the Hinton Family. Go find out if Max is in the loop about their schemes."

"Got it."

Once Xavien left, Sean messaged Abigail.

...

'Honey, have you returned to the office?'

Abigail raised an eyebrow as she read the message, then typed a reply.

'Yes, I'm back at work. I've got a social event later.'

How's that like a peacock? It's about owning the room and asserting dominance!
