When I saw the trending topic pop up, I couldn't help but let out a helpless, bitter laugh. It was as I had expected.
Honestly, I was already mentally prepared for this. But when I saw Abigail's and Joshua's names trending online, it still made me shake my head helplessly.
I had no idea what she was thinking. How could she brazenly do all those things without the slightest regard for my feelings?
Still, I was curious about what stunt she had pulled this time. So, I clicked on the trending topic, and the first thing that caught my eye was an image of Abigail and Joshua in each other's embrace.
Joshua's lips showed a faint smile, and the way he looked at Abigail was filled with tenderness.
It has been a long time since Abigail looked at me like that. Her true love had always been Joshua. No amount of explanation could beat the reality her actions showed me.
I couldn't help but study the image of those two more closely.
Joshua's tousled hair, youthful and gentle demeanor, and handsome face were exactly the type that would swoon many girls.
If I were Abigail, perhaps I would be deeply drawn to Joshua too.
Even though she didn't love me and only wished to torment me, she kept her promise to find an expert to treat Lana's illness. I was genuinely grateful for that.
So, I should also keep my promise and help her deal with unnecessary trouble by playing the role of a good husband convincingly.
I picked up my phone and called Abigail.
I didn't know if she would answer, but by calling her, I left no room for her to find fault with me.
As I expected, Abigail didn't answer my call. She didn't answer my first call, and by the second call, it went straight to an automated message informing me that her phone had been switched off.
