The Marriage She Turned into War novel Chapter 179

Silas chuckled slightly and said awkwardly, "I… I said too much. My bad."

Hanson withdrew his gaze and turned to me. He smiled and said, "I'll be counting on you to guide them in the future."

"Of course, Mr. Jigman." Hanson had been incredibly kind to me. He was like a mentor of great significance in my life. I would do my best to fulfill anything he asked of me.

Besides, it wasn't difficult for me to offer a few tips to them.

After spending some time in the office, I decided to step out for lunch in the afternoon.

I felt a sense of comfort even with the noisy atmosphere in the office. It felt so much better than staring wordlessly at Abigail back home.

I still couldn't fathom her recent behavior. She used to have such high expectations of me, barely allowing any disagreement or refusal on my part.

But now…

She knew perfectly well that Joshua was working under Hanson, yet she still let me come to the office.

What was going on?

I couldn't figure it out. The thought lingered in my mind as I wondered if she had devised an even more cunning way to make my life difficult.

I mulled over how to face her when I returned the entire way.

I arrived at a Virellian restaurant. Suddenly, a figure slid into the seat across from me just as I sat down and was about to order.

"Samuel, let's talk."

The voice was familiar. I looked up to meet Blair's gentle gaze.

I had been intentionally harsh toward her the last time at the hospital. It wasn't because I disliked her. I just wanted to dissuade her from pursuing me any further.
