The Spare Wife (Abigail Quinn and Sean Graham) novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138 Trying To Understand

Abigail truly cared about no one now. Not only did she not care about Sean’s prestige, but she also disregarded Cornelie’s words.

“She doesn’t know how to do anything. What can she achieve outside? With a capable husband like

you, she’s still insistent on earning a meager salary outside. Only people who come from the countryside have such poor mindsets,” Cornelie criticized with disdain.

Sean used to dislike Abigail, and he would forget such words in the past. As he carefully listened, he

couldn’t help but feel that these words were like thorns pricking at his heart.

“Grandma, have you always been talking to her like this?” he asked suddenly.

“Why? Did I say anything wrong? We’ve spent thousands to feed and clothe her, yet she’s never

given us a child,” Cornelie muttered.

After listening indifferently, he said, “I’ve said before that I don’t want kids. Why are you making

things difficult for her? Why did you ask her to come back today?”

As soon as he hung up, Colby’s call came in.

Sean had just pressed the answer button when he heard Colby’s fit of anger. “Have you been cheating, and did Abigail find out about it?”

“I didn’t cheat!” Sean immediately defended himself.

“Abigail has always been obedient, working tirelessly at home for three years. Now, she’s gone out to work. What kind of husband are you? Are you stingy when it comes to money? Don’t think I don’t

know how much you’ve spent on Joan!” Colby’s voice grew louder.

“She’s just working; it’s not a heinous crime. We don’t have children yet, and she wants to pursue her dreams. What’s wrong with that?” Sean countered his grandfather.

Hearing that, Colby gritted his teeth. “She’d better be pursuing her dreams.”

The call ended, leaving Sean frustrated and tugging at his tie.

He was dissatisfied with everything, so he sent a message to Abigail. ‘Do you know what you’ve done? I got scolded by Grandpa!

After sending the message, he co dn’t focus on his work and kept checking his phone for Abigail’s

response.

On the other hand, Abigail was working non-stop, and it was soon 9.00PM when she finally left the
